Chapter 48
“What do you mean by that, I don’t understand?” Angela asked.
“So do you mean, you don’t know James like you, I mean Love you,” I said, and she burst into laughter.
“Is not funny, why are you laughing?” I asked.
“I was laughing at what you said, where did you get that idea from.
See let me tell you something you don’t know.
I and James are just friends. We aren’t that closed before.
He is crushing on Pamela, not me, he loves Pamela.
So, what are you saying” Angela’s said.
“Do you mean the same Pamela, that’s a total lie.
I always believed you, but I can’t believe this.
He was the one who told me to confess my feeling to her.
I don’t think he has any attraction towards her. So stop giving me excuses” I argued.
“Calm down, am in this school before you, and I know what is going on.
It was a few days before you came to this school that I and James started talking.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
I don’t like to have many friends.
So must time I do isolate myself.
The only person I was planning to be friends with was Pamela.
I and James started talking after the day he was bullied by those stupid guys called Kiles.
And do you know what lead to this, it was because James said in the class group chat that he loves Pamela and he would be happy if Pamela accepts him” Angela explained.
“Really, but I don’t think you are right about this. it might just be a crush, Maybe he’s just crushing on Pamela before.
But am very sure he loves you” I said trying to convince her.
“If he loves me, he will have come to tell me by himself,” She said.
“If he told you, would you say yes to him, do you love him!” I asked.
“I don’t know, I haven’t for one’s think about it.
So am not sure about that love of a thing.
I don’t know if I will agree with him or not.
I never noticed this. I only consider him a friend who always got my back just like you always did.
I don’t know if I will accept him or not.
Maybe I might have a change of mind later, but am not quite sure right now” She said, and smile.
“Hmmm, one-sided love, love triangle, everywhere,” I said and scoffed.
“I think is a love rectangle, not a triangle. You, Kiles, and James are in love with a girl.
This is wonderful. Romeo, you have many rivals” She said teasingly.
“You aren’t serious. am not in a love triangle or rectangle.
Am alone, so don’t talk about triangle again am fucking scared.
Don’t try to divert James to our side. both of you are met to be” I said and stood up.
“Really! Why are you so sure?” Angela asked.
“Because I can see it coming. you won’t be able to resist it” Romeo said.
“I will soon join your team, so it will be love fifth angle,” She said and burst into laughter.
I shake my head and smile.

“So tell me what’s your next move. Are you gonna ruin the competition or what are you gonna do” Jame’s said.
“Ruining the competition is not even my main plan. but I will wait patiently to exercise my plan.
it will be slowly, slowly, and slowly.
You know very well that slow poison is the worst.
it kills slowly but damages a lot.
So am going to be slow with every one of my moves.
I will pretend to be a change guy from now on.
I will distance myself from you guys. I will pretend am not In the midst of the bad boys again.
I will keep executing my plans and nor of them will suspect me” Kiles said.
“And you think no one will notice that there’s more to your sudden change.
I don’t think changing and behaving like a nice guy after what happens will make you a better guy.
If you can deceive the girls, am very sure someone like Romeo and that Angela girl can’t be tricked.
So why don’t you think of another thing” Nicklaus said.
“Nicklaus what has come over you. why are you just supporting this Romeo guy?
Anything we say or do is now meaningless to you, why the sudden change?” James asked angrily.
“Buddy, why are you so angry, Nicklaus is not trying to be an enemy.
The truth is that he’s right. do you forget it doesn’t take a night for a bad man to change.
So, if I just changed overnight they might start thinking otherwise.
Wow! You are very right. but I don’t have a choice, I will have to change, but it will be a twist, don’t forget the title is till bad boy in love.
Do you know why bad boys like us always win? that’s because we always had a plan ahead.
To ruin Romeo is the easiest thing, but am slowing down so I can get Pamela.
Tomorrow is the competition and it will be a blast before the competition.
Kiles Corey will be a change guy in front of all the students.
What a history” Kiles said and laughed evilly.
He explains is a plan to them.

Vicky POV
This my sister is so complicated.
Why is she blushing since she came back?
Her behavior is just weird this day.
She’s becoming more complicated. I know what to do.
I pretend to break my ankle.
“Ouch Ouch, my legs hurt” I cried out.
“What happened to you” She rushed to me and help me sit on the sofa.
“I twisted my legs” I cried without tears in my eyes.
“Just sit here, I will get the balm,” She said and quickly rushed to get the first aid box.
“You are so sweet sister, you are now so caring. why this sudden change” I whispered to her.
“Shut up, let me massage your ankle for you,” She said and apply some balm to my ankle.
She gently massages my ankle.
“What if I say am not hurt neither did I hurt my ankle,” I said smiling.
“So you didn’t hurt yourself. You can never change” She said and drop my leg.
“I was trying to get your attention, you are blushing since you came back from school.
And it hasn’t happened before, it seems today is the happiest day of your life since you’ve been going to college” I said.
“Somehow best. I am very happy that God has blessed me with good friends.
They love and cherish me a lot. I feel blessed” MEME replied smiling.
“I see. But there’s more to this smile on your face.
You and your friends have been together for years, since high school. You even choose to go to college because of them.
You were given admission into university but you refused it because of your friends.
They have always got you back since childhood.
So, tell me what’s is the real reason behind your smiles?” I asked.
“Love, I have finally admitted I love Romeo so much than I can imagine.
I do get jealous whenever I see a girl beside him.
I thought this was only coming from me, but Annie told me Romeo also loves me.
She said he overheard him telling Angela that he loves her a lot.
He even composed that song for me” She said blushing.
“Oh-oh! Hmm, now I know the reason why you are blushing. Am happy that Romeo is going to be my brother In-law” I said dancing around the living room.
“Behave girl” She shouted.
“But wait a minute what of Kiles, have you told him you don’t love him?” I asked.
“Yes, but he is not ready to leave me alone. I made a very big mistake” She said remorsefully.
“It has happened, there’s nothing we can do.
He will accept his fate sooner or later” I said, my phone beep, it was a message from Leo.
“Am at your gate” I read the message within me.
I head toward the door.
“Where are you going to?” She asked.
“Hanging out with Leo. He’s outside our gate, bye” I said and gave her a flying kiss.
“Love you, take care of yourself,” She said, and I went out of the mansion to see Leo standing resting on his car.
“Hi, you look beautiful” He complimented.
“Thanks,” I said blushing.
He went to open the car door for me.
“I must say you aren’t serious,” I said smiling.
“Anything for you baby,” He said.

The city mall.
Harry was coming out from the mall.
He sighted Vicky and Leo coming hand in hand towards the mall,
He fumes. He couldn’t stop staring at Vicky who was just smiling at what Leo was saying.
“Is this not Harry?” Leo said on seeing him.
“He’s the one, let’s call him to join us,” Vicky said.
“No, there’s no need for that. we came here on a date, so, I think we should be alone” Leo said.
“You are right. but let’s say hello to him” Vicky said.
Leo nodded his head and they went to where Harry was standing.
“Harry, you came here, do you come with your girlfriend?” Vicky asked looking around.
“I don’t have a girlfriend, we broke up some weeks ago” He replied.
“Oh sorry, you must be hurt now.
Don’t think about it much. And funniest thing, we are still very closed but you didn’t tell me” Vicky said.
“Is not necessary, that why I didn’t tell anyone of you” Harry said.
“Oh! sorry nigga, you should find yourself one.
As you can see I already have one, my beautiful Angel” Leo said smiling at Vicky.
Vicky blushes.
“Bye, I have something more important to attend to,” Harry said and leave.
“What an attitude. why is he jealous” Vicky said with a pout.
“Why wouldn’t he be jealous, and why is he even jealous. He told me you guys are just friends” Leo said.
“Yes, we are just friends. That girl has jilted him for another guy. what a world” Vicky laughed her heart out.
She was surprised to see that Harry comes back.
She and Leo look at each other. Then smiles.
