***LISA***
The dance was still ongoing and the real people that are actually dating are having a good time, I can see white teeth and beautiful smiles on most of the girls faces as they enjoyed their dance with their partners but mine wasn’t like that and that’s because I’m dancing with my brother and as siblings we have nothing much to discuss, I’m almost getting bored right now and seriously thinking of a topic to raise for discussion or even a joke to raise but none is coming right now………… *
***Muna***
Dancing with Lisa my heart rob is something that I have wished for an opportunity to do during our prom night and here I am right in front of her holding her hands and dancing with her, all thanks to kelvin I said and smiled within….. Lisa is not happy though because we are both dancing in silent unlike other people who are chuckling and giggling, what do I do now to make our dance lively? But I’m scared I don’t want Lisa to find out that I’m the one she’s dancing with and not kelvin, that would be another offence.
Lisa, I have never seen you this beautiful before, you are awesomely beautiful…. I said to her with a shaking voice
***LISA***
I smiled at kelvins commendation of me again
You’ve said that countless times today, I know you’re short of words to say because I’m not your girlfriend, that’s fine can we play a game, Truth or dare?
Muna: Okey that will be fine let’s play the game
***Both Smiling***
Lisa: Truth or dare?
Muna: Truth
Lisa: Is that girl you were chatting with your newly found girlfriend?
Muna: A bit confused, who was the girl I was chatting with earlier, remembering that Lisa is talking to him as kelvin…Nope she wasn’t
Lisa: okey your turn
Muna: truth or dare?
Lisa: truth
Muna: Do you have a secret boyfriend?
Lisa: (laughing) you’re silly bro, what’s secret boyfriend please I don’t have any
***Both laughing again ***
Muna: your turn…… Truth
Lisa: Whose Muna dancing with?
Muna: Was silent for the maintime,…. Kelvin where are you, come and rescue me by taking over ooo!!
Lisa: Hello, is the question so hard?
Muna: Stammering… No.. I’m just looking around for Muna, he should probably be dancing with a girl of course……. (narrow escape)
Is my turn now
Lisa: Dare……. stressing the date
Muna: I dare you to remove your mask and wriggle around with just your toe.
Lisa: what! No kelvin, you can’t catch me if I’m about to fall…… Is only Muna that knows how to catch me when I do that stuff
Muna: of course I can catch you, I have watched you and muna do it several times.
Lisa: Okey but don’t let me fall (she removed her mask and wriggled several times, people even made way for her, when she was about falling Muna stepped in and grabbed her.

There was an applause from the crowd and kelvin stepped in clapping and cheering his sister for the wonderful dance step she displayed.
Lisa who was smiling thinking it was Muna that came to congratulate her smiled at him and said…
Thanks Muna, I could remember us doing this from childhood…… Lol
Kelvin: No! No!! Lisa, there’s a misplacement somewhere behind you is Muna and I’m kelvin…. Kelvin said removing his mask
Lisa: A kinda shocked, and annoyed
What’s happening here kelvin?….. She said and removed Muna ‘S mask.
What! So it’s true, she said and ran out of the hall
Kelvin and Muna ran after her calling her name.

#SEMIFINAL
Lisa please stop we are sorry .. Lisa didn’t stop until she got to her dad’s car, all her intentions was to find a means to drive it home but unfortunately she has not the key.
Lisa: just go you both!! kelvin, I trusted you with everything and you betrayed me, just go I hate you, your not worthy to be a brother
Kelvin: I’m so sorry sis, is all my fault, I had to do it this way because the both of you pushed me into doing it
Muna & Lisa : What! How?
Kelvin: yes of course, I have been secretly asking the both of you if you love each other, but you both refused to say the truth BUT I know very well that you were lying to me so I had to put up an act.
Muna: What are you insinuating right now, kelvin you mean you purposely w-et my suit with the wine?
Kelvin: Yah I did it on intentions so that I will exchange it with mine and you can be able to dance with my sister from there you can profess your love to her but after that dance I know that things will go this way and all my plans will spoil, that’s why I had to resurface openly.
Muna: what! Kelvin you’re so unbelievable.
Kelvin: Yah I know, but this is the least I could do for you both…. If the both of you likes, die with your feelings for each other or let pride, ego or shyness to deprive you of your happiness.
Once again I’m sorry Muna, I’m sorry sister just forgive me but don’t fail to THANKS ME LATER….. He said and smiled as he walked away.

Muna: I’m sorry Lisa
Lisa: Oh just shut it, all of you guys are just the same, wolves in sheep’s clothing.
Muna: It wasn’t intentional, I never knew kelvins plan until now, we exchanged the suit because he insisted and because of the stench of my suit, he asked me to pretend to be him and keep you company until he returns.
Muna: Oh I see, and the dance, you asked me to do it on purpose too so that this will happen?
Muna: No! That’s not true, when you choose dare, I don’t know what else to dare you to other than to dance…. Honestly I don’t know. I’m sorry.
Lisa : is no use, I want to be alone.
Muna: OK but you, is it true?
Lisa : Is what true?
Muna: What kelvin said, do you love me Lisa?
Lisa: What sought of rubbish question is that huh… When will you learn to stop believing kelvins trick eee! Just go and leave me alone.
Muna: Just tell me the truth, why did you start avoiding me, why did you suddenly develop hatred for me for no just course, why did you make me your enemy within a twinkle of an eye, just Answer me Lisa and I won’t bother you ever again.
Lisa: What do you wanna hear me say, you choose her over me, you abandoned what we were supposed to do and go with her, do you know what type of embarra-ssment and humiliation that was to me? Now that you know let’s call it a day.
Muna: (laughing) I can’t believe that you’re still mad about that after I apologized to you? Common Lisa, I know you too well than bearing irrelevant grudges… Okey I’m sorry again.
Lisa: I heard you… She said and made to leave.
But Muna held her hands….
Muna : I love you Lisa, I have falling for you from that day of fried coconut rice house at my house, I thought the feelings were a mare infatuation that I tried to abandon it and forget it but as much as I tried it kept growing stronger that I can barely do a thing without first thinking of you.
I love you Lisa, I love you so much that I can’t imagine, I love you with everything in me bestie.

Lisa was extremely happy in her heart as so many butterflies were singing love songs in her stomach… Thank God her crush and love for Muna was just not one-sided crush and love I’m glad that he said it and my long time dream is coming to pa-ss…. Muna interrupted her thought.
Muna: please say something, just tell me anything and I’m willing to prove my love to you to any height Lisa…… I LOVE YOU SO MUCH LISA.

The word sounded so loud, de-ep and clear to her and it kept resounding in her heart over and over just like echo..
Lisa : What took you so long to say it monkey?…. She said smiling as she turned around to face Muna.
Muna: I’m so sorry my lizard just making sure that the feelings are true and sure
