Butterfly in my belly

When ever it's February like this, it reminds me of my secondary school days. Sometimes it's funny.

It was the middle of sss1 second term. And as we all know, February like like this, a Val month. Some of my classmates in high school were already in an intimate relationship. And I could not imagine how weird that sounds to me. It was not just funny, because like....what will you people be doing there ...like how...

So it was 14th February and some of my classmates were already exchanging love letters. I was in the middle, feeling like a spoon or a text book self..

Just when I thought the day was ending, and we'll all retired back to our different houses to share the love.
I was just outside to returned a teacher's note I used to copy on the board as the class perfect Na...

I saw one of my classmate, looking all neat and different, with a nice body spray. Like my guy was looking sweet.

He handed over a white paper to me. And I was shocked. ..To me,.. I thought it was school related.

I ignorantly carried that letter around and i mistakenly dropped it on teacher's table. When I returned back to the class, I noticed Pius (the guy who gave me the letter)

was just too shy to look at me, before I could remember what happened, they sent for me in the office. I went and behold they presented the letter before me Some teachers who knew me so well believed I didn't know anything about the letter. Innocent me, I was just there crying rubbish cause what will happen to my eggo😂..
Like ...me, that form like love was funny, how do I even look at people's face...I mean I'll be called pretender.

After a thoughtful deliberation, my school discovered I was innocent. Pius was punished.
The part that shocked was that, Pius can not write a complete easy but how comes he was able to composed a love letter to be that sweet😂.

After the incidence, I thought I'll be the worst person to Pius. Not knowing his love for me will grow.
Although I apologize to him, that I didn't know it was a love letter else I wouldn't have gotten from him in the first place.

He promised me, he'll never give up until I became his..
Pius followed me till we wrote our WAEC.
I think that's where his love story ends.
Fast forward to today, Pius is a big boy today and I'm sure he'll sit down one day to remember how funny and ignorant he was.
