WHAT DO YOU SEE IN THE MIRROR?


"Seni!!!"


Tayo's screech breaks through her.. what was that? A trance?

And yes, that is one of Tayo's flaws, a weird weird voice...

"What is it?" Seni turned to Tayo.


"I wanted you to help me with my zipper."


"Is that why you screamed my name? Mtchewwww..." Letting out a disgusted hiss, Seni made to walk out then remembered she hadn't eased herself and turned back. 'Tayo and her drama, how did her zipper even get...'


"Osheeeeyyyy! I see why you guys are taking forever! These mirrors are sooo cooolll!" It was Adaora, the queen of exaggerated gushing (and hips) and right behind her was CeeCee, the dazzling beauty with zero manners.

There, she couldn't even summon the smile that seemed to be one of her best features.


"I'm not enough..." The thought still plagued.

She looked around, her friends were oblivious to her plight. They were back to their table and chattering about a variety of topics ranging from what was happening in the lives of BBN stars to which Nollywood actor had a baby mama...


Suddenly someone's face flashed through her mind. There was something significant about the person. She grappled to catch it but it was foggy...
