New waves, old shadows
<p>*📖 Episode 26 </p><p> “New Waves, Old Shadows”*</p><p><br/></p><p>The morning came with unusual silence.</p><p><br/></p><p>Denniem sat on a bench under the mango tree in front of their faculty, lost in thought. Aisha hadn’t replied to his messages since last night, and he couldn’t shake off the guilt of how things ended. Just as he was about to stand, a loud familiar voice cut through the air.</p><p><br/></p><p>“Guy, you de always dey think like say na you carry Nigeria for head!”  </p><p>It was *Success* — his childhood friend turned roommate and full-time chaos bringer. Clad in a black hoodie, sagged jeans, and a smirk that screamed trouble, Success had a way of lighting up even Denniem’s darkest moments.</p><p><br/></p><p>“Success! You no go ever change,” Denniem chuckled, pulling him into a half-hug.</p><p><br/></p><p>“Wetin happen? Aisha don press your mumu button again?” Success teased, raising one brow.</p><p><br/></p><p>Before Denniem could respond, two figures strolled into view — *Amaka*, the sassiest girl on campus with lashes long enough to cause traffic, and *Kunle*, a guy so smooth even lecturers greeted him first.</p><p><br/></p><p>“Ohhh, Denniem, you remember our girl’s night?” Amaka winked. “Aisha spilled some juice.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Denniem perked up. “What juice?”</p><p><br/></p><p>But Amaka just giggled and whispered to Kunle, “He’s still clueless.”</p><p>Success folded his arms. “You see? Na why I dey always talk say women na FBI agents with fine face. Anyway, make una talk well. Because something dey cook... and I no like the smell.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Suddenly, Aisha showed up behind them. She looked... different. Calm but unreadable. “We need to talk. All of us.”</p><p><br/></p><p>They turned to her. The tension cracked like thunder.</p><p><br/></p><p>“Something is about to change,” she added.</p><p><br/></p><p>And just like that... the story took a new direction.  </p>
