Change of plans.
Chapter twenty one.
"I really enjoyed today even though you behaved like a dickhead". Charlotte said, smiling Sincerely.
They were in front of his house. He pressed the code of the gate and entered.
"Thanks for today". He said at last.
"You're welcome". She drove home and saw Alicia and Alex in the sitting room watching a movie. She ignored them and left upstairs.
"She's really angry". Alicia said and she and Alexander laughed.
"Truth to be told,he is damn cute. It's so hard to choose among those four guys. Heart please who do you beat for the most?". She demanded fagged. Do you know how you sounded just now?crazy and dumb!. Her subconscious mocked and she rolled her eyes.
She went down the stairs and drank juice. "Don't wake me up tonight, I've eaten and I'm satisfied". She managed to say and went upstairs again. She got to the room and did her assignment then showered. She changed to her night gown and went through her Instagram page. Her email was filled with messages mostly from countries about the contract.
"Hi babe". Jasmine's message came up.
"I'm not talking to you". She texted back.
"Common Charlotte, you are being childish right now"
"Whatever,you didn't believe I could drive". She put a frowning emoji.
"Okay...I'm sorry".
"Will not forgive you! What are you up to?".
"Just scrolling and scrolling and you?".
"Same here".
"I've been getting many messages from many companies. If we get signed up,that can change my life and my parents' or what do you think". Jasmine asked, praying she would accept.
"Hmm...".
"Common just talk babe".
"I will think about it". Charlotte said but deep down inside her,she isn't interested.
"Till when?". She asked curiously.
"Take a chill pill doll!". She texted putting an emoji rolling its eyes.
"Alright bye". Jasmine said.
"Good night". She heard footsteps and quickly covered her body with it pretending to be fast asleep.
"You don't know how to pretend. Your phone is still on and the message is not even up to a minute ago". Alexander said and scoffed.
"Wake up!". Alicia screamed, scaring Charlotte.
"What is it?". Charlotte demanded, annoyed.
"Well we just thought about it and decided we ain't allowing you to sleep. It's just 7pm". Alexander said.
"Don't test my patience Alexander Blake". She said in gritted teeths making him chuckle.
"Babe let's go...seems she's not in a good mood. I don't want anybody to bite me". Alexander told Alicia as they were about to leave.
"She's not your babe Alex...stop messing with her". Charlotte said.
"That means you still care about me. Awwn". Alicia said and Charlotte scoffed.
"I wanna shower...you guys should excuse me". Charlotte said.
"Your towel is wet, meaning you have showered". Alicia said, rolling her eyes.
"Arggg..just go away!"

"Babe". Jasmine called Charlotte for the third time in class and she jerked up.
"Yeah.. yeah..what's up?". She was not able to guess what she had been saying.
"Is anything the matter?". Donald and Jasmine asked her, looking worried.
"Of course no..I'm fine". She muttered dubiously.
"Follow me". Jasmine said, pulling her out of the classroom.
"Charlotte you can tell me anything I might be of help you know, what's bothering you just tell just me". Jasmine said, trying to find the truth from Charlotte.
"Do you think there is a solution? I'm crushing on guys and it is crazy. Two of them asked me out and I don't know who to accept. I'm just so confused". Charlotte sighed wearily.
"Chill baby girl, it might just be a Crush just take your time and try to think of the person that you love most among them then go for him". Jasmine admonished.
"Thanks babe I will think about it". They left the campus garden and went to the class.
"Are you ready for the test? I'm trying my best to study hard". Jasmine tried to change the topic " I've not been really reading but trust me I will pass". Charlotte said .The two girls left and went to the class giggling.
"Alright guys, let's talk about the contract". Charlotte said.
"Donald, jasmine has something to tell". Donald looked at Jasmine expecting her to say something but didn't get anything from her.
"Common girlie,you are wasting our time. Just spill everything". Donald urge curious about what she wanted to say.
"Okay...I was thinking the three of us should sign the contract. I know you guys aren't interested but I wish to...". She was looking for the right word.
"We are bestfriend right? You shouldn't be feeling insecure to tell us anything". Donald encouraged me.
"I just felt it might help our family...like change our story".
"Hmmm". Charlotte said.
"We are in". Donald and Charlotte said simultaneously.
"Really?". She wasn't expecting it so soon.
"Even Though I dislike being famous, I will do it for you babe". Charlotte said.
"And if I don't agree,I have nothing to gain. What are friends for?" Donald said smiling.
"Thanks Donald" Jasmine said and pulled him to a hug .
"You're welcome". He said smiling..
"And as for you Charlotte, you are the best friend ever". She said hugging her tight.
"Miss I can't breathe". Charlotte said and she quickly let go of her.
"So what is next?". Donald asked, staring at both of them.
"Well,I will tell Alexander on one condition". Charlotte said grinning.
"Which is?". Jasmine asked, rolling her eyes.
"Well,you guys are going home in my car". She winked.
"Oh gawd..". Donald said.
"I promise not to get us killed". She winked again and they all scoffed.
"That winks is cunning but we will go". Jasmine said, frowning.
"You got no choice duh!".
They got to the class and met the government lecturer already there.
"Oh Lord! It's the government teacher..run!". Jasmine whispered and they made to run.
"Run and zeros for you in your tests". He shouted and they halted in their steps.
"Where have you been?". He said adjusting his glasses.
"Good day sir,we we.we".. Jasmine said, thinking of a lie.
"I hate stammerers". He thundered.
"It's not their fault,who knows Donald might be fúcking them". A lady whispered and the class was filled with laughter except the man who frowned still.
"You are...".
"Excuse me sir?". The class went wild when they saw Alexander. Some started blushing while some were pulling up their skirts.
"Yes?". The teacher said focusing on Alex.
"The chancellor demands you guys' presence in his office right now". Alexander said facing Charlotte, Donald and Jasmine. He winked at the student making them blushed hard and pulled the trio out.
"Okay...so we are out of the lecturer's problem but why is the chancellor calling us?". Donald asked .
"Alex...do you have an idea why the chancellor asked for us". Charlotte asked him.
"Well...". He stressed his word, scaring the hell outta them.
