Chapter Sixteen
A few hours later I checked my followers again, only to find out that the weird user had stopped following me.
I was angry and a little freaked out so I decided to take it out on my message board.
Hey peeps!
Have you noticed that there are some weirdos who randomly follow you for a day and then unfollow you after.
The one who followed me doesn't even speak English?
Am I the only one who has noticed this?
While waiting for my followers to see my message board, I decided to scroll through my news feed to see what the other users were up to.
I could see that a few of the other Nigerian users were obsessing over music-lover's face reveal book.
I had to admit seeing the words "face reveal" Had definitely piqued up my interest.
I tapped her name so that I could look for the book on her profile.
As everyone already knows, news feeds never lie.
Her latest book was indeed a face reveal.
I tapped it and waited for the first page to load.
It read;
Hey guys.
You're probably wondering who the eloquent writer behind the cartoon profile pic really is.
Some people even think I'm a guy, lol.
I think it's finally time that I make it clear what I look like and who I am.
Read on to find out more :-)
Music-lover
I scrolled up so that I could see the next page.
It was a picture of the music-lover. She had her back turned and was leaning against a white wall.
I could see her long purple braids and her ass on full display but not even a little of her face.
"Sneak peak" She had written underneath.
I shrugged before scrolling over to the next page.
On the next page she was crouching a typical high school term pose.
She was wearing a pair of jeans and a grey shirt but only a side of her dark smooth face was showing.
I wish She would just get on with it already.
"Almost there" She had typed at the ending .
I scrolled up to reveal a pretty look music-lover on the next page.I
She was in the white short gown that hugged all her curves perfectly. The commenters were going mad in their very own section.
Maybe I'll do a face reveal of my own someday. But that'll probably be when I'm famous or something.
I logged out of Wattpad and say up in bed bored but too lazy to read any books.
Then I got an idea. An idea could really mess things up but would be very entertaining at the same time.
Firstly, I tapped the WhatsApp shortcut and blocked all the adults I knew from seeing my status. What I was about to do was a little inappropriate but really interesting too.
I typed a few words before updating my status.
Hi!
I have news that I'm really excited to share. I've been keeping this a secret for a really long time now and I can't wait any longer.
I have a boyfriend. He's so cute and fun and... Everything.
It feels so good to get that off my chest. I'm off the market being in a relationship is really fun :-)
SIKE!!!
Just kidding. LOL!!!!
I was a little disappointed when I realised that Faruq and Amy weren't online but decided to be patient for once. Their reactions were going to be priceless.

I was in the living room watching an episode of the teen titans when my phone pinged. I looked away from Cyborg who was drawing a moustache on Robin's face and picked up my phone.
The message from Amy had me grinning widely. In my peripheral vision I could see Tayo shake his head. He was sitting in the arm chair across from mine.
Amy: Ewo!!!!!
Amy: I know it's not Faruq because he would have told me first. Who are you dating you this girl??
Her next message had come in a few minutes later than the rest. She had probably realised that I was joking.
Amy: Thunder fire you! Idiot! Oloshi! Are you mad?!!!
Which kind joke be this?:'(
Amy: I've been shipping you and Faruq since forever. NOTHING will stand in the way of the ship. NOTHING!
I laughed at her messages, rolling my eyes.
Me: E ma binu ma. E jo oh.
I was just messing around.
Amy: Be careful about the jokes you make.
Amy: Has Faruq seen the status update?
Me: Lemme check.
I tapped Faruq's name so that I could see the messages he had sent me. I frowned after reading them.
Faruq: You have a boyfriend and I'm the king of England.
Faruq: If you're jobless just say so.
I knew you were joking from the beginning.
I huffed in annoyance. He's really ruined this for me. How did he find out?
Niyi: How did you know :-(
Faruq: You would have kept your relationship a secret if it were real. You're not the boasting type.
I felt a smile forming on my face. It was cool that he was able to read me like that.
Faruq: Which spirit has possessed you now? I don't understand what inspired you to do such a thing.
I rolled my eyes. He just had to ruin the moment.
Me: The same that has been inside you since birth. Ode.
Faruq: Of course not. It's definitely the spirit making you talk like that.
Me: And it's the same spirit making you ask me JAMB questions.
Faruq: Spirit of madness. I had a feeling it was giving you problems.
Me: Like the spirit of the stupidity has been torturing you, right?
Faruq: The only spirit that I associate with is the spirit of good looks. That's why I am so handsome.
Me: Keep deceiving yourself.
Faruq: Keep blushing.
I sighed and shook my head. How did he know I was blushing now? And he called me a witch some time ago.
Me: I'm not blushing dundee. It's the spirit disturbing you again.
Faruq: Shior. I'll let you be... For now.
Me: Whatever.
If only Faruq knew how right he was. I wanted him to notice me and more importantly I really wanted him to like me back.
