"Stop.... are you for real. All this happened in just three days", Katrina was stunned after Mapendo narrated how she ended up being the girlfriend of Max.

"It's real girl at times I pinch myself to see if it was just a dream. Am not yet used to him being my boyfriend", Mapendo informed her.

"I knew that he loved you am so happy for you at least you now have a boyfriend. You won't be the odd one in our group", Katrina winked at her.

"Just do that to your guy. He will leave you", Mapendo chuckled.

"Fuck you....", Katrina pouted arranging her clothes.

"I have something to tell you....", She headed to the bed and sat beside Mapendo.

"What's up....", Mapendo raised a brow at her.

"Am leaving soon", She informed her.

"Whaaat... to where", Mapendo couldn't believe that Katrina was relocating.

"To my mum's. I will soon join her", Katrina saddened since she was leaving her best friend behind.

"No... did you decide to join her. Buh.... I thought you didn't want to join her. What happened", Mapendo eyes wrinkled in worries waiting for an answer.

"Apparently Mrs Smith agreed to hand me over to her when I turn 18. Since I already turned and have completed high school. Am supposed to go and live with her. I will be visiting Mrs Smith once a year", Katrina informed her.

"No I can't believe this. Please don't go ", Mapendo pleaded her as a tear streamed from her right eye.

"Stop... we will see each other again it's not that am going forever", Katrina embraced her as Mapendo couldn't contain herself.

"I will miss you this is so heartbreaking", Mapendo informed her wiping off her tears.

"Why are you sounding like my boyfriend", Katrina chuckled in an attention to enlighten the mood.

"I look stupid this friendship of ours is like a relationship", Mapendo giggled rubbing her eyes.

"I will miss you so much and you know that. Will be visiting once a year", Katrina informed Mapendo.

"Let's go to the same campus please", Mapendo suggested.

"Yes... that's a good idea. We will go don wanna loose you", Katrina grinned at her.

"Bitches....", Pearl barged in excitedly.

"Mapendo and Max are now a couple", Katrina informed Pearl.

"Wait... whaat...!!!!" Pearl was perplexed she couldn't believe what she just found out.

"Yes.... you heard me right", Katrina assured her.

"Why are you two so shocked. You making a big deal outta nothing", Mapendo raised a brow at them.

"No... you always denied it that you loved him", Katrina notified her.

"Yes... I didn't know either", Mapendo answered her.

"I didn't know either... we ain't dummies", Pearl immitated her.

"Mmmh... it's not a bad thing", Mapendo notified her.

"Finally we can all go out with our boyfriends", Pearl chuckled glad that Mapendo was finally in a relationship.

"You said it girl...", Mapendo smirked at her.

"So I called you guys so that we can go to the park and bond. It's been so long and am about to leave", Katrina informed them.

"Yaaay ", Mapendo cheered up.

"Am really looking forward to joining campus. Wanna know if all the shit they say about it is true", Pearl stared at an eagle.

"We are yet to find out about that", Mapendo notified her.

"Let's swing first please", Katrina requested them.

"Aaaaahh... fine you such a baby", Pearl frowned she wasn't a fun of swinging.

"Let's go... you can remain there if you want", Mapendo informed Pearl as she surpassed her.

"Now you can boast cause you have a boyfriend. Aaaghh...", Pearl rolled her eyes.

"Yes ....", Mapendo nodded with an attitude.

"Max is really doing wonders to you already", Pearl light chuckled.

"Yes... we are the newest couple in town", Mapendo notified her picking up a leaf.

"How are you feeling about leaving us", Pearl questioned Katrina.

"I really feel bad. I never wanted to leave buh Mrs. Smith informed me I have no option. Since my mum is still my mum. Aaaagghh it's annoying though will have to join her", Katrina was saddened since she couldn't figure out her new life without her childhood best friends.

"Too much of the drama catch me if you can", Mapendo threw a small stick at Katrina.

"I will catch you asap", Katrina assured Mapendo as she ran towards her.

"Got you...", Katrina chuckled softly tapping Mapendo's back.

"We should go there....", Pearl pointed at an empty seat.

"Sure ", Mapendo nodded.

"I must say will really miss this moments", Katrina informed them.

"As long as you visit us. You won't miss them", Pearl assured her.

"Yeah... ", She nodded glad that even though she would miss them. She had two lovely friends who made her happy and feel whole.

"When I grow up I will relocate here", Katrina informed them.

"You already grown. You over 18 right", Mapendo lifted a brow at her.

"Of course do I look like a baby to you", Katrina chuckled.

"Of course not", Mapendo giggled.

"Mason invited me to his birthday party. Will you come", Mapendo questioned Katrina.

"Yeah... he did invite me too. Will be going next week so we have a week together", Katrina informed her.

"Cool ", Mapendo faintly grinned at her.

"Now you will be my girlfriend for the night right....", Mason winked at Mapendo who was relaxing at one of the couches.

"Aaaah... it won't be possible since have a boyfriend now", Mapendo informed him.

"Whaaat... you must be kidding me. You having a boyfriend stop lying....", Mason lightly chuckled placing his arm on her shoulder.

"Imma serious. He's coming remove your hands", Mapendo informed him staring at Max who stood in front of them.

"Whaaat buh this is Max", Mason notified her placing his hand on her thigh.

"Fine will get back to you enjoy", Mason stood heading to the kitchen.

"Is he in love with you or what", Max raised a brow at Mapendo.

"He's not it's cause he was my boyfriend for the night during my birthday. So he wanted me to be his girlfriend for the night", Mapendo explained.
