I felt exhausted as I climbed up the stairs And walked towards my room. Saafa had made me accompany her to Brixton, where we had ice Cream And burgers.

"You really have to know the kind of situation you stick your nose into" Taiwo said the moment I came into the room.

"Are you talking to me?" I asked unsure. She was staring at me which only meant she was talking to me but I couldn't believe it.

"why are you getting yourself involved with sufy?" she asked, yes she was talking to me, and calmly.

"How do you know about this Taiwo?" I asked.

"Because you are trending all over the school's blog and gossip magazines" She said while showing me a video of me walking away with the guy whom I found out his name is sufy.

"OMG" I placed my hand over my mouth, If Tariq sees this I am roasted for sure.

"Who is sufy and why am I being warned about him?" Sufy was beginning to scare me. This is the second warning I'm getting today.

"Sufy is one of the most feared young men in the campus, and people believe that he is a cultist" She said.

"Why don't they just Withdraw him from the university then?" I asked while seating on my bed.

"Because his father Is a very prominent man in this country" she said.

"And why are you warning me?" I felt curious to know why my enemy was warning me.

"Because you are my roommate" she mumbled.

"But you hate me, Don't you?" I rose a brow at her and she exhaled before Answering me.

"I don't hate you,  I am going through a rough patch" she mumbled the last statement.

"oh, sorry" I muttered.

"So what's your name again?" she asksd with a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"Heza" I mumbled.

"Cute name" She smiled. Looking at her smile was a beautiful sight, Taiwo was extremely beautiful, That i couldn't deny.

"Thank you" I muttered with a smile.

"I'll be back tomorrow,  I have a class in the Second campus Tomorrow morning. Take care of yourself" she sounded just like my mum.

"Thank you, And take care too" I said to her before she smiled and walked out.

I decided to read a thriller novel on Wattpad before sleep consumed me.

~*~

The Alarm of my phone jolted me right up from sleep, I checked the time on my phone and it was 5:33AM. Which meant it was time for my early morning jog. But before that,  I had to pray subh which I did.

After praying, I got dressed into a black sweatpants and a plain white tee-shirt. I wore my cap and placed my Earphones on my ear. And then I wore my Nike sneakers.

I walked out of my room and locked it with its key and headed downstairs where I found some girls washing amd Conversing, yes it's now 5:55AM. Girls.

I ignored all the people and walked outside the dorm, I jogged slowly before adding pace.

I jogged towards Brixton and recalled the beautiful picture's i and Saafa took yesterday.

Suddenly, I stepped On something which seemed to Had pierced Into my sneakers, the pain was unbearable so I decided to take a seat Under the shade which was next to Brixton.

I pulled off my sneakers and saw blood gushing right out of my foot,  I hated the sight of blood so I scrunched my face irritatingly.

"you should have gotten a sport footwear and not an ordinary shoe" A male voice startled me and I raised My Head to find sufy staring at me.

Just by seeing him, I could feel my heartbeat Acceleratee From fear,  All the warnings which I got played in my mind making me swallow a lump.

"my shoes are strong" I mumbled.

"They don't seem so though" he sat next to me making me Move  uncomfortably.

I watched him as he removed his headband "your foot..." he said requesting for my foot.

"sorry but It's Haram in my religion to allow a man who is not Your husband touch us" I said in one breath.

"I know, my name is sufyan" he chuckled, his voice was so melodious, unlike yesterday when he was yelling like a lion.

"You're a Muslim?" I furrowed my brows.

"yes, I think..." he yawned.

"you think?" I furrowed my brows at him.

"yeah, take This and wrap your foot" he handed me his headband, thus he got up.

"You're welcome" he said sarcasticly.

"I dont..." before I could protest, he began to jog away. I sighed and wore back my shoe, I wasn't going to use his headband, I'll make sure I return it when I see him next.

I decided going back to my dorm but the crowd of people gathered around the school gossip board which was in front of my hostel stopped me.

Out of curiosity, I decided to go see what was taking place.

"what happened?" I asked a short looking girl.

"Someone was murdered last night " she said. "And are you not the girl who saved the guy from sufy?" she asked.

"Farooq ?" the tears in my eyes were burning it as I spoke.

"yes, farooq was slaughtered yesterday"

*~*

After the death of Farooq was told to me, I became really scared of PHU. Some people including Taiwo were pointing fingers at sufy, who I hadn't seen for some days now.

During our orientation, we were Advised by the schools vice chancellor and Dean's, it was the most boring time of my life.

"Hello can I seat her?" A Husky masculine voice said. I raised my head up to find a Boy with broad shoulders staring at me, he was dressed in a blue plain body hug which hugged his abs perfectly, the most captivating part was his brown honey eyes, he was very indeed handsome in his chocolate skin.

"sure" I mumbled.

"Thanks" he took a seat close to me and his manly perfume made me sigh In relief, his scent was captivating.

"Is this the first week of lecture?"he asked. His melodious voice was supperly Amazing, it reminded me of sufy's voice, though sufy's was extraordinary.

"Yeah" I said.

"Oh, That means I'm early" he relaxed on the chair.

"yeah" I mumbled while flipping through the pages of my notebook.

Just in time, the GENS 101 lecturer was before us, it was a middle aged man who introduced himself as Mr Clinton, he seemed to be a nice man until when a boy and a girl were conversing and he told them never to come into his class ever again.

"what crawled into his butt?" The broad shouldered boy whispered in my ear and I chuckled.

"stop or else we would be the one's crawling into his butt next" I whispered and he chuckled.

After the class, Mr Clinton gave us an assignment, yes on the first day of class. How annoying.

"wait, everyone don't leave please" A boy shouted making everyone including I and broad shoulder guy seat.

"we get another class ooo" a guy  from the crowd said angrily.

"what could be so important?" I mumbled to myself in frustration with my eyes closed.

"Hello everyone" A familiar voice echoed through the class making me open my eyes to find sufy standing at the alter with a mic in his hand.

I stared at him blankly, wondering what he could be doing here. I felt a pang of fear when I remembered the death of farooq, I am very sure he is the culprit.

"My name is Sufyan Jada and I am the president of the of this Department. I welcome you all to PHU, It is great to have you all here" He said so professionally, making me open my mouth in Awe. How could somebody as rough as sufy get the post of a president of a department.

"To cut things short, I am here to appoint the class representative of this class" he said scanning his eyes allover the class before it stopped on me, yeah he was staring at me with a side smile displayed on his perfectly curved lips.

"Who would want to take the place of the class representative?"he asked, but it felt as though his question were coming at me.

There was a brief silence in the class before a Fat girl stood up so gracefully.

"I" she said.

"And who else?" sufy asked.

"Not me" I said to my newly found broad shoulder Guy.

"Did you say something?" Sufy asked, while staring at me but I didn't want to believe he was talking to me so I ignored him.

"Girl in Purple, I am talking to you" he pointed at me, Making me swallow a lump.

"I said nothing" I mumbled.

"You'll make a really great class representative, seeing that on Saturday you saved me from hurting someone" he said making Everyone focus their attention on the girl in purple, yes me.
"That's a really good Example of leadership" he said making everyone mutter a yes.

"is there any objection to this lady becoming our class representative?" He asked the class.

"No" The whole class chorused, including my broad shouldered friend Whom I smacked.

"Then it's official miss..." he said waiting for me to say my name. Which I didn't.

"I don't want this post" I said bluntly.

"But unfortunately I do, And the presidents words goes, This is PHU and not some federal university" he said.

"just Accept" the broad shouldered guy whispered.

"No" I mumbled.

"Trust me you do not want to get on his nerves" he Whispered again.

"I am waiting" Sufy said impatiently.

"Heza Ibrahim suraj" with that said, I became the official class rep, while the other fat girl became my Assistant.

"Meet me after class" those were sufys last words as the president to me. And just then realization dawned on me that I had just accepted the ticket to my own death.
