Chapter 11 - The shopping war 2

Where is my phone" Teslima looked back as she packed up her purse for out journey, I heard my phone ring out from the bed, walking towards it I picked it up.

"Hey, okay that's quick, I'll come out now"

I responded to Damilare as he said he was outside the hostels blocks and can't locate out room, ending the call

"Hey girls he is here" I announced, they all just nodded not looking up from there phones and they all had there gowns exposed and Niniola was putting on a shirt.

Sighing I decided to make my point clear, "A boy is going to walk into our room and if you want him to stare back at three half naked girls be my guests"

That snapped them back to reality, Ajoke and Teslima adjust their gowns, while Niniola pulled on her polkadot crop top.

"Better" I mummured walking out the room shutting the door behind me, the hall way was empty everyone was either out on locked up in their rooms, I haven't even met my neighbors yet.

But I asked the girls and they said I should be expecting more drama soon, I wonder what that means, walking to the balcony I say Damilare standing in from of my hostel block.

I hate yell people's name out.

Calling his number, "Hey look up"

"Oh uhmm sure" he looked towards my direction and I waved at me, "How is the sun not burning you" He joked nodding.

I hanged up as I walked back to the stairs, we met half way, "Hey Good afternoon" I greeted as the two boys were no side by side leaving me to the wall.

"Hey Vampire girl, You know that name is awesome, I think it should stick" Damilare returned his phone into his pocket, while Shayofummi's face remained glued on his.

"I have a name it's Ariyike" I said out slowly for him to get the point, "No that's a nice name but it's boring, Vam-girl, now that, is a really good nickname"

I gave up at this point, I mean it's actually cool.

"What ever you saw wolf boy, yeah if my name gets to Bea thing yours should too" He didn't argue, he just chuckled.

"Do I get to call you vampire girl too" Okay I was a little shocked that shayofummi actually talked I mean it was a little obvious

"I can talk you that right" He drawled pulling me out if my little mid day dream, "Oh yeah uhmm you have been quite I was in awe do you can say more words"

He chuckled making an eye roll, "Being silent is awesome but I have been forced out of my room, I might aw week just no be quiet all through"

"Hmmm sounds nice and no it's Ariyike, one person I'd barely I can't have two boys missing when I go blood thirsty"

I joked, smiling, "Well Ariyike it is"

"We are here" I signalled to the door, I could here the girls giggling, for a set of 20 and 19 year olds they act like children,

"I'm coming in" I announced turning the door knob, the door creaked open, I stepped away from the door step as both boys walked in.

"Hi everyone you help has arrived" Damilare I announced as he walked in, shayofummi kept mute, "Hi Damilare right, we didn't get to talk yesterday" I'm Teslima, she announced getting up to her feet.

"I'm Niniola, nice if you to offer to help" She was smiling ear to ear, she waved at shayofummi, it was akward but he waved back.

"And I'm Ajoke" That was all she said, I know she is Shay bit then it's extreme, "Don't y'all have nicknames" Damilare asked as he took a look round the room.

"Well, I'm Ari, that's Tessy, AJ and Nini" I broke down our names as I walked in to get my purse,

"Cool now that's awesome, I'm Dami, and he is shayo, he won't talk a lot" He was talking about his roommate,

"Now can we goo?" I urged the group, "I want to get today's shopping over with honestly" We all walked down engaging in small irrelevant conversations.

"So I'll drive the girls and you guys can drive behind us" I Suggested, "Why not into a group three, and I'll drive with two girls you drive with shayo and one more girl"

I looked back at my roommates" Uhmm sure I'll go with Ari" Teslima offered will the two other girls left to Damilare's car.

Shayo was obviously not comfortable but then he kept quiet so it's no one's fault, "Music?" Teslima asked she connected to my Bluetooth.

"Well sure?" Shayo put on his air pods, as Teslima played

'finesse f5 buju pheelz'

It was a really short and akward drive, I missed driving with girls, we would be singing on top of our voice by now.

Pulling into the parking lot, I found a spot to.park as Dami's car pulled up behind mine, "You know for a new driver you are good" Shayo commented me as I got out of the car.

"How did you?" I was about to ask how he knows the car was a new car, "Well to be honest it's a brand new car and you look like a new driver, you are really cautious like very"

I shrugged, "Next time you drive" He looked up from his, "I don't drive, I have a car but amazingly I don't drive" That seem like it had a story behind it but then I kept quiet and ignored.

"Well and they say I'm weird" He chuckled as Teslima finally got out if the car, "You actually talk, I thought you had limited words"

She tilted her he'd to him, "You girls love sacarsm much" sending us glares he walked to Dami, "He was joking right?"

"Tessy calm down he.was joking" She sighed through her lips, we met with the girls, "Your friends are really dope, the car ride was fun.

Damilare walked towards us, "Yours is quiet" Shayo sent me a glare, I sent him a sly smile, "Let go in, I want to get this show over with"

I stared at the Building, it was a really big store, I'm impressed, "Well I thought of something, we split the list into three and we go into groups last group loses and buys everyone lunch and packed up all the stuffs into the car"

Damilare analysed his idea as we passed the security check, "That's awesome, I'll go with Teslima" Niniola locked her hands with Teslima.

I saw what see did there," I'll go with Shayo" Ajoke will kill us for this obviously but then it's fun to tease her, colour drained from her eyes as she realizdd.she was going to be with Damilare.

"Guess I'm stuck with you shy girl"

"Imma not shy, I'm reserved" She spoke up glaring at me, I shrugged, Damilare smiled down at her, she returned the smile, we prepared the list and picked them out, it was filled with posters and paint and lights.

"Well last to get to the counter should get ready to pay" I smiled pulling Shayo with me, everyone picked up a trolley, and went separate ways we were in charge of getting lights and posters.

"I don't want to but them lunch okay so we have to step out a game up" He smirked down at me, "Unlucky for them I know a shopping mart like the back of my hands"

Grabbing the trolley, I grabbed mine, "okay wow, we found the right Aile in recorded time, picking out all we needed, we proceed to the next place.

"Okay wow, you weren't joking" I gaped at the poster sections, there was so many, I got all the girls asked for, and I got a lot of smoking, Bloody, and post Malone posters.

So much more all dark and gloomy, "Okay you love dark stuff cause what the fuck" Shayo finally spoke up, I smiled, "The lights hurts my eyes maybe I'm an actual vampire"

He just stared at me" Let's goooo, we spent enough time here already" picking out wallpapers and wall art, we were done in about 25 minutes.

"We need to get to a counter and fast" pushing the trolley, we moved to the next counter, it was empty we got there first paying was easy, I payed for what I got shayo stayed back on his phone.

Packing up was easy we set the stuffs aside, "How do you know you way around that much?"

"Only child I shop for my mum a lot" He said with a shrug, "Wow that's nice"

"Are you also an only child?" I chuckled, my life is pretty messed up, I'm not and I'm also an only child, but he doesn't have to know.

"Well nope, I have an amazing sister, my necklace" I pointed at the necklaces Anu gave me.

"Wow, she must really love you" We snapped our head sback to Damilare as he moved his trolley at Teslima pulling up next to him, she was the last person.

"Aww,.you guys lost" Damilare was panting so was Ajoke, Niniola was walking to the group, she couldn't run cause of her asthma.

"Fuck you" She grumbled as they both payed for the items on their list, "We lost right" Niniola finally caught up with us,

"How did you guys get her so fast, we gave you both the longest list" Damilare was whining, "I used my vampire speed" I deadpanned smiling

Shayo chuckled next to me"oh shut up" Teslima was not over losing yet, "Hey don't lash out it was a fair game we just got lucky"

Damilare was teasing her, she gave him the fuck you finger with a smile on her face, "you both curse a lot" Niniola pointed out again.

She has a problem with cursing because I have never heard her curse not even once, "Sorry love" I smiled looking back as the girls payed for the rest of the stuff.

"I know that's a fake apology Ari, I'll buy everyone lunch" Niniola was really cool about it, "And I have no idea how I lost but I'll pack the stuffs"

She glared at us, "No hard feelings honey we got lucky" I tapped her shoulder, "No I don't believe you both" Damilare assisted her in carrying the bags.

"Yeah we cheated, we magically summoned the items on the list into our trolley and disappeared to the counter" Shayo explained as we smiled at the four eyes glaring at her us.

"Yeah turns out he is sorcerer" I patted his shoulder, "I hate you both" Damilare huffed as her and Teslima packed up all the bags, we eventually helped a little.

"Okay let's have lunch and then go clothes shopping for tomorrow's matriculation ceremony"Ajoke said as we put the last of the bags into the cars.

"Let's go" Niniola smiled, "You are not complaining about buying lunch" Teslima pointed out, "Well why should I it's fine" She giggled as we walked into the restaurant.

The boys were whispering somethings to them selves as we walked in before they joined the group "They don't serve blood here"

Damilare draped his arm over my shoulders, I eased out of his touch, I hate being held, "Well I'll manage what I can get and feed on you later"

"You both should quit the vampire stuff, before they think it's done sorta cult" Shayo chuckled as we took a seat, "What do you guys want to order?"

"I'm not hungry, so ask them" I picked my phone, Damilare stole it off my fingers, "Hey give it back" I tried to grab my phone but he didn't bulge.

Sinking back into my seat, the girl ordered in the back ground, I was forced to get a snack if meat pie and a coca cola drink.

"We pay when we are leaving right?" niniola asked as we all stared eating" You play Call of duty? And mobile football okay wow, where have you been my whole life?"

I made an eye roll, "In my house growing up, I love violent games, moves and bloody stuff in general, and I play football in person and on games because I love the sport, and Don't ask, I don't watch it, it's boring"

I took a sip of my drink, "Well judging by your wallpapers, you are obsessed with the things you listed, I smiled at Shayo, "You read me like a book"

"How can a girl be this violent and look so innocent" Niniola pointed out, I smiled at her, "It takes strength" I smiled at her she made an eyeroll.

"is she that violent?" Shayo took a sip out if his drink, "She threatening to punch me causing I was taking to her"

Like I said she is never going to forget that.

"In my defense I apologized" Looking down at my phone my stepmom was calling, "I need to take this"

Walking out the restaurant I heard Damilare laughing in the background, "Hi mum" I said into the receiver smiling, "Hi darling, how are you doing,"

She sounds weak," It everything alright?,you sound weak" She sighed, "its nothing love, I went back to work, so I just got back l, I just wanted to call you"

"Oh sorry get some rest, I love you and I'm very fine, my regards to Anu" She chuckled,

"I'm guessing you are busy I'll call you back later okay love take care and stay safe"

"Alright I love you" She hanged up the call, Walking back into the restaurant, I sat next to Damilare, "You were gone for a while"

"Call from home it's nothing" I smiled as they went back to eating engaging in small conversations about movies and games, soon we were done,

I'll be back Damilare said as he walked to the counter, he returned back in a while, "Okay let's go" Damilare signal Ed as Niniola looked up from her phone

"Don't I have to pay?" she tucked her phone back into her purse, "I payed already" Damilare shrugged walking ahead He whispered something to Ajoke she pushed him a way laughing.

"Next up clothes shopping"
