in Freewriters4 months ago

Sarah and I were together in high school we shared a lot of memories, gifts, sadness , joy and every other thing good friends share . Moving to college we met ourselves fortunately I was on my way for a lecture when a car drove in my friend steps out from the care, the man who rode the car wasn’t her dad I would have known it was her it must be one of her rich uncles I thought to myself we just. I hurried for class while she enters the administrative block for her screening I doubt she saw me and I could not scream her name due to the thought of that could generate from it, before the lectures were over I watched the car drive out we did not have time to meet neither did we exchange pleasantry.
The following week we fully resumed, I was late for classes due to distance when I got there everyone was sited and lectures were on going as I approached the door my heartbeat becomes more rapid, my eyes searches for where to settle has I was too frightened to look at the lecturer it finally lands on her, she always wears a reassuring smile which gives me confidence right from back then and definitely that day too, the lecturer’s question snap’s me out of my thought as I stutter to answer them after a few questions I allowed in. I barely listened in class being on cloud nine at the thought of finally getting to meet her , the joy was overwhelming as my adrenaline rush increases immediately the lecturer left the class we rushed at each other screaming at the top of our lungs and went in for a hugged that lasted forever.
The program we applied for was to last for a nine month, two weeks into the program my close friend was approached by a rich guy, fair , average height, rumor had it that he is a very intelligent student saying his already in love with her because of her looks and how quite she acts, he notices her each day . We spoke about it and I advice her to wave it off for now cause we just started our secondary school was only girl’s and were not so use to having guys around, we were fondly called the back and white twins, dressed alike and shared every moment together .
This is where it gets interesting the guy that met her at the beginning came for me too, he said we should be friend owing to the fact that my friend was the girl he admired even though he could not have his way with her we could still be cool, I accepted for the sake of my Sarah and to reduce the thought people have on me terming me as a rude girl that doesn’t associate with men, we exchanged our numbers and went our separate ways that day.
First few weeks of our friendship was just text getting to know each other, down the lane we called ourselves on several occasions , we strengthened our bond as the days went by we secretly went for dates and dated without the knowledge of my close friend I felt bad but have never experienced anything of such in my life and wanted it to stay , I knew that was so much cruelty but gave in either ways . I kept on smiling on my phone constantly, lost interest in school activities all I could think or feel was him I got distanced from Sarah so she won't know what was going on, one day her phone got bad she requested for mine to make a phone call I left the premises cause my presence was needed in a meeting never thought she would go through my chat but she did . My friendship of six years sank like nothing cause I had no explanations for what she had seen, few weeks later the relationship ended I felt great loss in barely a month...
