“HEARTLAND UNIVERSITY”
The morning was somewhat cold as the
students of “Heartland University” walked
around the campus trying to get one or two
things done. It was still the registeration
week thus meaning that the students were
a bit free from lectures for about two weeks
so they could choose to do whatsoever they
like as long as it doesn’t contradict with the
University’s rules and regulations, cars could
be driving in and out of the campus,
students walking briskly to the registeration
centre, some running around with files,
some dressed like prostitutes and some just
lazing around feeling big. The guys
especially the old students could be seen
trying to stalk the new intake girls, while
some students who claimed to be born
again could be seen walking around in long
sleeve shirts and skirts, with Bible which
looked as if it was being plastered to their
hands …

MALE’S HOSTEL(Nath and Ken’s room)
Time checked- 7:45am
Nath opened the door and walked into the
room with a big whites towel tied round his
waist and another small pink one on his
neck. It was obvious that he’d just had his
morning bath. He walked to where they kept
their water and dropped the soap dish, then
he walked to the wardrobe to get dressed.
“Um! Guy, food no dey o,” Ken complained
in pidgin as he lay on the bed fiddling with
his phone.
Nath kept quiet and concentrated on
applying cream on his body, then he untied
the towel from his waist, removed the one
from his neck, dropped them on the locker
close by and quickly wore his boxer.
“Nath!” Ken called out again. “I said food no
dey, I mean there is no food,” he said sitting
up on the bed.
Nath kept ignoring him as he took two
hangers from the wardrobe, put the wet
boxer he’d washed together with the small
towel in it, then took them outside to dry.
Ken looked baffled. He wondered why Nath
kept ignoring him. He thought of what to do
as Nath walked back into the room and
cleared his throat.
“Ehn Ehn! Guy, what were you saying?” Nath
asked as he sat on the edge of the mattress
yawning.
“No food,” Ken repeated and yawned widely
making Nath laugh a bit.
“Let’s eat bread with sardine na,” Nath
suggested and lay on the bed.
“Tah!” Ken rejected.
Nath was surprised, “Why?”
“I won’t be satisfied please,” Ken frowned.
“No wahala na, then let’s stay,” Nath smiled.
“Why smiling?, Is it because of the food?”
“Was I?”
“Yes!” Ken replied. “I guess I know,” he
whispered, then added, “Gold right?”
Nath smiled broadly and closed his eyes,
“Search for my dream girl has been
completed.”
“That’s true sha,” Ken concurred. “But now
the big question is, Will you too ever be
together?”
Nath opened his eyes and stared
thoughtfully at the ceiling, then smiled again,
“I believe so.”
“Untermed faith for love,” Ken giggled and
stood up then he walked to the locker they
kept foodstuffs, opened it and brought out
a tin of sardine with a big loaf of bread.
Nath sat up and chuckled, “What are you
doing with that?” he asked.
“I want to throw them away,” Ken eyed him
and he smiled…

FEMALE’S HOSTEL(Gold and Queen’s room)
Gold and Queen could be seen eating from a
large bowl of conflakes.
“Honestly I keep having bad feelings against
Jeffrey,” Gold confessed and scouped a
spoonful of conflakes into her mouth.
“What bad feelings?” Queen asked and
drank from a cup of water.
Gold swallowed hard, “That he’s cheating on
me.”
Queen sighed and dropped her spoon into
the bowl, “So, what are you planning to
do?” she asked with concern written all over
her face.
“I’ll set him up with my cousin, Bright, to see
if he would fall,” Gold said and dropped her
spoon too, then placed her right finger on
her lip in a worried manner.
“But that’s a childlike suggestion,” Queen
complained.
“Yea, but that seems to be the only solution I
have now,” Gold said looking sober as she
picked up her spoon and started eating
again.
“Now this is really bad, but don’t worry, it’s
well,” Queen smiled at her as she also picked
up her spoon and resumed eating…

STILL THE FEMALE’S HOSTEL
(Joy and Gloria’s room)
“I will deal with that good for nothing
today,” Joy fumed as she dressed up.
“Who?” Gloria asked, applying make up on
her face.
“Hei Gloria!, have you forgotten so soon?”
“Oh!, the plan right?” Gloria smiled.
“What else na, by the time we’re through
with her, she’ll realise that we’re not pieces
of meat you chew without needing a
toothpick,” Joy smiled wickedly, then sat
down and stared into the mirror.
“Kai! Suicide mission, this semester go hot
like fire,” Gloria exclaimed as she and Joy
exchanged victory glances at each other,
smiling wickedly…
