I contemplated telling Ugochi of my relationship with Tobi but an issue weighed heavily on my mind.
She was August's friend and someday, somehow, she could leak what I told her to him intentionally or unintentionally.
I would be seen as a bad person for allegedly breaking his heart even when I had told him that I had no feelings for him in that manner.
People, being people, would rather squeeze you and hang you out to dry than focus on their problems.
Throughout the strike, I became close to some of my coursemates via WhatsApp chats and there was always a time when they brought up my relationship with August.
They would always believe that we were dating and completely in love because of how close we were before the strike.
