Asiya's Diary

after six long years of seriousness and har

y Abuja. It is my dream university and fashion design has been the course I have always wanted to study since w

and my best friend. Speaking of Latifa, I am so happy for her. We were friends since ki

, she called Khaled, her prom date and also her boyfriend while I called Affan my prom date, they are also best friends and to be honest they are very good-looking. When we were in year nine, Affan confessed his feelings to me but I rejected him because I didn't want to be dating my mate. Duh that's so silly, but as for Latifa, she accepted Khaled gladly, I asked her about it and she answered: "What girl will resist such a handsome guy like Khaled?" I just laughed and said "Allah ya nuna mana bikinku.[May Allah show us your wedding]." And she mumbled an 'Ameen'. The guys came and I can't deny the fact that Affan looked handsome in his blue suit matching the colour of my gown, while Khaled in his army green suit that suited the colour of Latifa's dress. "Hey" Affan flashed me a grin. I just smiled shyly, we trudged inside with Latifa and Khaled trailing behind us. As we stepped in, I heard some side comments from our mates. "Omg! They look so good together" said the first person. "She is so lucky that the most handsome guy in our school is her prom date," Another one chirped. "I heard that she begged him to be her date, she even cried her eyes out while kneeling in front of him," The third lady scoffed. That must be Karima because she has a crush on him since when we were in year nine and from the day he confessed his feelings to me, she has been looking at me with distaste. As though Affan heard the last comment, we stopped and turned around then moseyed back to the spot they were stood. "Hey young ladies," He smiled, I enjoyed watching them drool over him. "Who said that last comment?" He asked and they all pointed at Karima who looked like she was having a panic attack, I internally smirked. "If you ever say that to my girlfriend again I will be your worst nightmare I swear," He said, seriousness etched in his tone. "Girlfriend?!" They all shouted at the same time, flabbergasted by his statement, even I am surprised but just kept quiet to watch the drama unfold. "Yes! Girlfriend," He replied, irritated. "Sorry Affan" Karima shivered after she said that. "Am I the one you made a rude comment about earlier?"He questioned.. "Sorry, Asiya" Karima apologized. "Better for you," An angry Affan said while glaring at her. When we walked away, I asked him. "Why did you tell them I am your girlfriend?" "Because if I didn't tell her that, she won't be as scared as she is now "
