Simisola came back from school that day and sat on the bed in her properly furnished room. With fatigue that made the room seem upside down to her, she placed her head on her pillow as she lay face-up on the bed. She cast her glance towards the ceiling of her room which she shared with her twin sisters.
Looking around her, she began to feel drowsy and expected herself to fall asleep immediately. She shut her eyes and instead of drifting to sleep, she drifted to thoughts about her latest beau. She saw his eyes first, those small, beautiful almond coloured eyes which were properly adorned with the most amazing lashes. Soon enough, his whole face flashed before her and his beautiful heart shaped lips made her smile. She loved his whole look and felt he was amazing. Her mind began to stray to the first kiss they had and how she almost fainted with joy at how his lips met hers and implanted a burning passion in her, how she tried to feel his heart pulsating against hers in their warm embrace but instead felt his perfect body and shivered. She remembered vividly how he held her so close to him the last time before she travelled as if he was scared of letting her go, the words he spoke into her ear the last time....
and she fell asleep.
