Reading @abenad experience on the hiveGhana prompt regarding betrayal, brought back a memory I have since buried deep in my subconscious.

At a point in our teenage life, we must have heard of the term Facebook love, especially my Nigerian brothers and sisters.

I was in SS2 (Senior Secondary School) and we were three friends. For the sake of privacy, let's call my two friends Sheila and Esther, we will also call Esther's Facebook boyfriend at the time Samson.

I wasn't really heavy on the Facebook thing because for starters, I do not have a browsing phone, just the one for calls.

So, when both of my friends and other girls in the class would talk about their Facebook lovers or crush, I really had little to contribute even though I did have a long distance relationship at the time.

It should be worthy to note that My relationship was a courtesy of MTN love connect and that one will be a story for another day.

Coincidentally, my boyfriend's name is also Samson (not his real name) and since I didn't get to meet him on Facebook, I really didn't feel my friends needed any information of him during gist time. Not to mention that I do not even know what he looks like as we only get to speak on the phone.

Although Sheila and Esther knew I had a boyfriend, they just did not know his name until Sheila decided to be a snake.

Sheila had used my phone to make some personal calls. After her calls, instead of her to mind her business and return my phone to me, Shiela started snooping around and of course that thing she was looking for? she saw it. Instead of her to confront me with it, so that I can clear my name, she ran to tell Esther that I'm seeing her boyfriend Samson.

Esther herself did not also confront me with Sheila's gossip instead, they both kicked me out of the friendship and recurited other girls in the class to do same.

I was Ostracized from the girls group in our class and I still didn't know what I did wrong. While I was oblivious of my offense, Sheila was only friends with me when no one's looking.

I was bothered and concerned but then, I knew that if I want to get to the root of the matter, I need to get my hands on Sheila's phone because I had suspected she and Esther must have spoken about the situation via sms or social media.

Immediately the bell rang for recess, the girls and everyone else went out for lunch but I stayed back to snoop.

I got a hold of Sheila's phone and the first place I went to was her Facebook inbox.

What I saw there scarred me, I read both my friends slander me and called me all sorts of unprintable names.

Apparently, Sheila had told Esther that she went through my phone and noticed that I had been texting plus calling her man. After reading from Sheila and Esther, I went further Sheila's inbox only to discover that Sheila was guilty with all that she accused me of.

I wasn't going to keep quiet, as I made sure to involve the whole class after recess. While we were at it, I also called my own boyfriend and after clearing the confusion of names and and vindicating myself, I asked Sheila to explain to all of us what she's doing texting her friend's man. She was going to deny it but I brought out the chat from her phone and showed it to Esther.

As Sheila made attempts to falsefully grab the phone from me, the guys in the class held her down and her attrocities became a public affair.

Thus, that marked the end of our friendship because both Sheila and Esther were cut off.
