Tessa laughed so ha-rd when she got to her room, Emma who is busy pressing her phone turned to look at her
“What happened?” Emma asked
“Nothing, is it a sin to laugh again?” Tessa frowned
“I’m sorry, there’s gist come” Emma smiled and Tessa rushed to the bed with her, changing her cloth at once
“Olish just opened an account for themselves?” Emma gushed
“Quick question, who’s Olish?” Tessa asked with creased brow
“Olish, Presh and Olive” Emma replied
“Uhn, I thought it’ll be Prolive or Plive” Tessa replied and climbed her upper bunk bed
“Prolive doesn’t even make sense, Olish is the best” Emma pouted and put off her phone
“By tommorow I’ll start seeing pics of them, can’t wait” Emma gushed and hug-ged her pillow tight
“Yes yes goodnight” Tessa rolled her eyes and faced another smiled
“Night night” Emma smiled and closed her eyes, she slept off instantly
Tessa tried to sleep but she can’t, her mind went to when she locked Robert outside, she saw him shivering violently, she knows he has a low tolerance to cold
“Did I over do it?” She asked herself and faced another side, she tried closing her eyes and sleeping but it refused to happen
Feeling annoyed she took the pillow and dipped her face inside then screamed for a while before coming down from the bed and wore her fli-p-flops then left the room
….
Robert is already lying on the ground, curling himself really ha-rd and shaking violently, his li-ps and nose tip are red already indicating that he’s very cold
Tessa opened the door and looked down at him with wide-ned eyes
“Robert Robert” she bent beside him and tried raising him up
“I just left you outside for few mins and you wanna die already, you’re so weak” she muttered and raised him up
Even in her arms he’s still shaking violently, Tessa managed to carry him inside and closed the door
“C….co..cold” he utterd with shattering teeth his eyes closed
“You’re such a baby” she hit him slightly and began taking him in, but he moved his body to the couch and they both lost balance
Tessa fell with Robert on top of her, his li-ps went straight to her and her eyes went wide. This is her second ki-ss with him now, his li-ps is so cold this time, she pushed him off and tried standing but he was too strong
“Robert” she hit him but he didn’t answer
“Robert, get up” she looked at him and noticed his eyes are closed, he past out already
“I guess this is my payback for locking him outside” she muttered and looked up, before she knew it she slept off
************
NEXT MORNING***
Angel is just climbing down the stairs and stretching her body, her eyes went to the couch and it wide-ned
Tessa and Robert, two sworn enemies are sleeping beside eachother, she immediately rushed upstairs to call the rest
With full speed they came down and began taking pictures and laughing, their laughs woke Robert up, he looked everywhere and looked at Tessa, his eyes wide-ned and he stood up immediately
Tessa opened her eyes and stood up too, she looked at everyone laughing and gave them a confused look
“I think we should call them Ressa” Emma said and everyone began murmuring
“Ressa?” Tessa asked and moved to snatch Bolu’s phone
“Oh, my” she deleted the pic and turned to Robert in anger
“It’s not me” Robert shook his head
“All of you are sick!! sick!” She shouted and rushed upstairs
“Gosh I’ve laughed enough this morning, what should we have for breakfast?” Emma asked, going to the kitchen
“I never taste American pancake before, make we chop that one” Chi replied
“He has never tasted, American pancake before so he wanna try that” Romeo interpreted
“Okay I’ll make just that, hey Romeo come help me in the kitchen” Emma hug-ged his arm pulling him in while Linc scoffed and sat on the couch
“Lover boy 2” the boys began singing for Robert
“It’s not funny” Robert snapped and rushed upstairs
“Babe” Presh came to Olive and pecked her li-ps
“Good morning” she smiled and hug-ged him tight
“Heyyy, this one the two of you are behaving like married couples, who will date me bayii” Angel gro-aned and sat beside Linc on the couch
Tasha and Brittany just came out of their room together, Tasha’s eyes never left Olive and Presh as she went to the fridge
Presh whispered something on Olive’s ear and they both laughed then he ki-ssed her hair and Tasha scoffed
After few minutes, Robert is back downstairs, chatting with Linc
“Breakfast is served” Emma smiled coming out of the kitchen with Romeo who had flour on his nose
“Guy your nose” Chi laughed
“Huh, what happened?” Romeo asked, Emma looked at him and chuckled
“Flower dey am”
“It’s not flower is flour” Emma laughed
“Anyhow” Chi hissed and went to sit, Emma brou-ght out a neat rag and wiped Romeo’s nose for him
Linc looked at them and his fist tightened, he gripped on the pillow really ha-rd and faced the TV where Robert and Angel are watching and laughing together
“Didn’t anyone heard what I said about breakfast” Emma repeated..
They began murmuring and moving the the dinning, Tessa just climbed down the stairs with Carl, she’s dressed in her free crop shirt, bumb short, netish black popsocks and canvas boot
They all sat down and began eating, Presh would be feeding Olive every now and then, the dinning was noisy
The glas-sdoor rolled opened, Melissa and Johnson stepped in
“Good morning guys I hope you all enjoyed your night?” Melissa asked with a bright smile
“Yes we did” some people replied but Tessa, Tasha, Robert and Linc kept quiet
“Okay, so all of you should eat fast cause we are going to the amusement park for an event” Melissa said
“Cool, I never go American amusement park before” Chi smiled
“Moron” Brittany muttered
“We’ll be waiting in the van, after breakfast meet us there” Johnson said and left with Melissa
After they ate, they packed the whole plate to the zinc for Chi to wash
“Which kind juju be this na” Chi frowned and entered the kitchen
“Presh leave me naw, let me go and change” Olive giggled when Presh won’t stop ki-ssing her all-over her face

“We are going to the amusement park Presh,I need to put on trousers” Olive laughed
“I know I know but…

“Thank you Bolu” Olive smiled and rushed upstairs
“Jealousy” Presh hit Bolu’s head

“Ehn,it’s love na” Presh shurgged and smirked, Olive came back downstairs wearing trousers, she took Presh hands and smiled

As Bolu was entering with Percy, his eyes cought a girl that looked like Kate, laughing with some groups of girls
“Hey, let’s go” Percy dragged him in
“Oh, okay” he followed her in
..
Tessa and Robert were roaming about this hunted house, Tessa is scared but doesn’t want to show it, Robert looked at her and chuckled, it’s obvious she’s afraid
“What are you laughing at, moron” she hits his arm
They began moving front and out of nowhere a bloody skeleton jumped at their front
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh” Tessa screamed and jumped in Robert
“So you are scared” Robert laughed
“I’m not” she replied and got down from him, they made to enter the next room but a dry hand held Tessa’s leg
“Ahh, get off me get off me” Tessa stepped on the hand while Robert laughed hard
After stepping on it, she ran forward and glared at Robert
“Never knew the almighty Tessa is scared of a hunted house” he said
“I’m not scared, I’m just playing along with the ghost” Tessa replied
“Ghost” Robert shouted
“Where!!” She jumped and he laughed hard
“Are you getting back at me for locking you outside, I did brou-ght you back in right??” Tessa muttered and arranged her hair, she waited for Robert to get to her side
“Why are you waiting for me, can’t believe this” he chuckled and stood by her side, they began moving again
A woman in white dress stained dress, long hair and paled face came to block them
“Ahhhhhh” Tessa screamed and hug-ged Robert
Robert laughed…
The woman screamed and all the skeleton bones stood up, this time Robert shouted too
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh” Tessa and Robert screamed
The woman brou-ght out a knife and began chasing them.
