Chapter 5

last update Last Updated: 2021-06-29 14:40:07

Tuesday morning.

There was something about this morning the sky is not as bright as it should be this should be 6:00 am but everywhere is still dark, I check outside my window and outside was just as dark as the inside, I quickly turned on the lights in my room to check what's say the time on the wall clock.... But to my surprise it was only 1:00 am!

I haven't slept at all, how could I sleep? when I was having nightmares about Sandra.

There was one where she was flogging me with her father's cane. Mehn that was horrible, there is no way I can sleep again. I have to just stay awake till 6 am before taking my bath....

The time passed slowly but finally it was 6 AM, I quickly went to take my shower, had breakfast and then rushed off to school.

Due to hectic traffic on the road I didn't reach school on time I barely made it for assembly, I kept wishing no one had told Sandra any thing, when I finally got to school the prefects had already arranged students for the morning assembly and some students where running to the assembly hall I went straight to where my classmates were.

“Hello James, have you seen sandra?"

“Yeah, I saw her talking to Emeka a while ago, but I don't know where she is now."

“Talking to Emeka??!!" I panicked.

I'm too late for sure she must hate me by now, or maybe he said nothing to her? Maybe they just had a normal talk? I kept giving myself hope.

I tried to reach Emaka but he was in the front of the line, and I didn't want to be caught by the prefects. I looked around for Sandra but she wasn't in the assembly ground...... where might she be? She is not in our line nor in any line in the assembly.

The morning assembly went on normally but there was no sign of Sandra till the principal came up to the platform and made an announcement about the upcoming inter-house sport and this made all the students shout on top of their voice in excitement. Usually I should be among the screaming students cus I so much love inter house sport activities cus is a time where I show my great athlete skills, but I had no interest in that now because all that was on my mind was Sandra.

Finally I saw her coming out of the female toilet. I could tell she had been crying, two of my female classmates were with her including Jessica. This is the end of me for sure. The three of them came to the line and my eyes and Sandra's met. I could see the tears dripping from her eyes. I could not bear to look at her so I put my face down.

The assembly was over and we all went to our various classes. I have to explain myself to Sandra.

”S..Sandra please can we talk." I said with cracked voice

Sandra: Leave me alone, I don't want to see you, I hate you so much.

She said and her tears were uncontrollable. She kept shouting and I had to leave her cus it was becoming quite a scene, my classmates all gathered around me and Sandra taking the lead was Emeka.

“Leave her alone, haven't you cus enough harm already? She is crying for God sake!"

“You! what have you done, you always go and spoil things. Don't you?"

“I only told her your devilish plan of hurting her, cus I care about her and I am not a big pretender like you."

I lost it completely, I gave Emeka a big right hand punch and we got into a fight, exchanging blows. My classmates tried to separate us but we still kept on exchanging blows. The news that we were fighting had spread to the whole school, which caused my juniors All rushing upstairs to my class to watch us fight.

They kept chanting Fight!! Fight!! Fight!!. Teachers heard about the fight also and up they came rushing towards my class which made my juniors all run away to their various classes.

“What's going on here?!!"

With the shout of Mr President came back our senses, we stopped fighting and only now did I realize that I am about to get in a whole lot of trouble. There are strict rules about fighting in my school and this could lead to me being expelled. What have I done? What has love made me do?

“You this boy! I always knew you were good for nothing, come with me and you too Emeka."

He barked at us then took us to his office where he gave us each 15 lashes of cane and after that gave us punishment to do. For some reason I didn't scream or cry when I received the cane unlike Emeka who ran out of the office screaming and crying, maybe because there is a lot on my mind? or maybe because I know I have lost Sandra for good? Or probably because I know this is just the beginning of my punishment.

After 30 minutes of frog jumping, we were taken to the principal's office where he tried to find out the reason for our fight. My principal is a very fat man, who literally does nothing , he usually seats in his office while his vice principals does all the school work, but when it comes to cases like fighting he likes to handle it himself, because he knows this will lead to parents coming whereby he can receive money cus the parents won't want their child to be expelled, and will have to bribe him.

He asked us our reason for fighting. I said Emeka told lies about me, but what I heard from Emeka's mouth made my heart stop beating for a while.

“Sir, I only discovered a devilish plan that Chris had for Mr Uche (Mr President) and his daughter, he was planning to take Sandra out and rape her with some group of boys he also planned to film the rape and then send the video online so that everyone could watch. I had to tell Sandra cus I don't want her to get hurt."

I couldn't believe my ears.

My God! Is this what Emaka told Sandra? That's Why she hates me so much. I always knew Emeka had a way of making something which was already bad worse. But I didn't know he could go this far!

_______________

TBC

What will happen next? Will Chris get expelled? Will Sandra Ever forgive Chris? Or are things about to get even worse for Chris?

I can't believe that he told the story like that. Chris never said what he was going to do. I hate he is dealing with a situation that could have been avoided if he kept his thoughts to himself

    The principal could not believe what he was hearing, his face was that of disgust and fright as he was trying to take in what Emeka just said.I on the other hand was prepared to defend myself from such despicable accusations, I won't let Emeka ruin my life with his evil lies, because of this unhealthy jealousy he has for me.Emeka had always been jealous of me since I could remember. It started when we were both in junior secondary school (jss). Back then Emeka was like the king of the school, he was rich, handsome and was good at football, he had many friends and the girls were always flocking around him but his fame didn't last long because due to the crisis in the North (Boko Haram) my parents had to relocate, leaving their business and everything they had.We moved down to the West to live in Lagos. Life wasn't really easy at first as my family had lost a lot of money because everything we had was in the North but later on both my parents got a job al

    I got home that day, told my parents what happened. I must admit it was not easy telling them, especially when I had to tell them I have been suspended from school for 2 weeks and that the principal had asked for one of their presence in school.My Mom was just so angry and disappointed,shouting and cursing Emeka. You know how mother's used to behave, while my father was as calm as calm can be, he didn't say more than what was necessary, he asked when he needed to be present in school and gave me some advice on life Matters...TWO DAYS have passed since I was suspended. My parents and I had gone to meet with the principal, and I was fined 30,000 naira for fighting and disturbing the peace of the school. I told you my principal knows how to get money involved in everything, yeah such an opportunist.My dad paid the fine and we both headed home.. However, on our way out of the school compound, a Range Rover Sport 2022 model was just making its way into the s

    “Ahhhhhh!!!" That was the sound I made while forcing myself to get out of bed for two weeks now I have been waking up any time I please, the earliest was around 10:00 AM but now I had to force myself to wake up around 6 AM, some part of me wished the suspension continued, but it was for the best it ended, because I was eager to see Sandra and explain myself to her regardless of what her father had said earlier. She must have calmed down by now, she would listen to me I guess.I sluggishly took my bath and fixed a quick breakfast before I took off to school....Arriving at the school gate.“Ahh," I took a deep breath wondering what awaits me at the other side of the gate.Has my name been cleared? Or have they added more lies to my head? All these questions kept entering my head as I opened the gate and went in.I noticed people were talking about me as soon as I walked by them, I tried to pretend as if I wasn't hearing or seeing t

    When we arrived at the hospital we went straight to the ward where Ayo was being treated. His mum was there with him and I heard she had not left her son's side since the day he was admitted to the hospital.Ayo lay unconscious in the bed, only still living because of the mechanical oxygen being passed through his nose by a machine. It was horrible, I didn't know when tears started licking from my eyes. I felt really pity for Ayo but more for his mother. It's never easy for a mother to see her son lying in a sick bed almost lifeless without being able to do anything to help him.On seeing us Ayo's mom was happy, she told Ayo that visitors are here to see him, that his best friend, who is me, is here to see him as if Ayo was able to see or hear anything she was saying.However I do admire her optimistic spirit, she still believes her son can still pull through from this and I want to share that belief as well.."It's nice you came to check on my son,

    In my room reflecting on what happened today, having mixed feelings of joy and sadness. Joy because I have patched things up between myself and Sandra but sadness because of the state in which Ayo was in.I wonder if I will ever hear his voice again, then the thought of me and Sandra almost kissing came to my mind like a flash which made me smile in the midst of my sadness.“Miss Esther just spoiled the show."I said out loud to myself.I wondered what Sandra's lips would taste like? I closed my eyes and started to visualize I was holding Sandra in my arms and about to give her a kiss....Knock!!knock!!What the FUCK! I can't even kiss her in my own imagination without being interrupted!“Who is that!!!!" I said in a frown.“It's me," I heard Felicia voice say.What can this girl possibly want? I wondered. Guess I will have to find out.“Come in, the door isn't locked."Felicia walked

    We kissed for a lengthy period of time before we finally stopped. It was really amazing her lips tasted like the purest of honey, I held her firm in my arms, looking straight to her eyes as if I am seeing through it, this made her uncomfortable, but I kept on staring at her eyes, I could see her blushing all over.“You are damn beautiful and I want you for myself, I want to be the one who comforts you when you are sad, I want to be the one who brings you joy, I want to be the one you think of before you sleep, and the one you dream of when you fast asleep, the first one you think of when you wake up because you are these things and even more to me," I said.“I don't know what to say," Sandra said.“Just say you love me and would be my girlfriend."“Yes, I love you and I am happy to be your girlfriend."She said and we both kissed again and to my surprise it was even better than the first kiss. I was so happy

    This Sunday was the worst Sundays of my life, I was just completely useless, I couldn't do anything, I didn't have the courage to dial Sandra's phone in case her father picks the call again, my heart was beating very fast as if had been running a marathon race since I came back from my date with Sandra, even my parents notice that I wasn't my usual self cus I didn't bother watching the Epl matches and in the evening when my and my dad favorite team Barcelona were playing there la liga match I had no interest in watching them all what was on my mind was Sandra and her dad.“Son, come watch the game with me, it's about to start," my dad said.“Sorry dad, but I am not interested in today's game." I declined.“Since when did you start missing Barça matches?" My dad looked surprised.“I am just not feeling fine, dad."“Are you sick?"“No dad," I replied.“Are you sure?"“Y

    “I can't stay here, I have to go home. I am low on cash." I informed Miss Esther.“Alright but be careful," she said, her words soft and tender.“Yeah I will plus I don't think anyone is looking for me. Sandra's parents don't know that she is with me," I said, feeling safe and relaxed.“How can you be so sure? What if her friend out of fear told Sandra's parents that she was with you? Have you thought about that?" Miss Esther said and that kinda spiked my anxiety level.I thought about it and Cynthia is capable of doing something like that.That girl isn't someone I would put my trust in. For the fact that she is hitting on me despite claiming to be Sandra's best friend. She can do anything but I gotta go home to get some cash regardless.“Maybe." I said, my voice laced with a bit of doubt and worry.“Just be careful," she said, giving me a hug and was about to give me a kiss when..Sandra started rolling on the couch as she slept like she wanted to wake up and after a few seconds she

    .Miss Esther, visibly distressed, continued pacing in her sitting room as I poured out the chaotic events that led us to her doorstep. Her shock was palpable when I revealed that Sandra and I had taken the drastic step of running away.“You did what?” she exclaimed in disbelief, her eyes widening with a mix of concern and incredulity.“We had no other choice. Please let her stay here with you for the meantime,” I implored, desperation clinging to my voice.“This is crazy, Chris. I don't know if I am really able to do this. I mean, I could get arrested and charged for kidnapping,” Miss Esther expressed her genuine worry, and I understood the weight of the situation. My plea had thrown her into a dilemma that could have serious consequences for her.Sandra, silent until now, observed the exchange with a mix of anxiety and regret. The gravity of our actions seemed to settle upon her, and I couldn't help but question if my impulsive decision was indeed the right one. Doubts crept in, but

    “What's wrong baby, why are you crying?" I asked as I was very worried.“Please tell me, why are you crying?"Whilst still crying. “Please I need to see you," she pleaded, her tears tearing up my heart.I was so concerned and worried. What could be the matter? I have to go and meet up with Sandra to find out what's wrong. She is all that really matters now. She had told me to meet her at her friend, Cynthia's place and that's exactly where I am going but first. I went back to meet Funke and Emeka. It seems they haven't been talking even though I was outside receiving a call all these while.“Funke I am so sorry I have to go. We will have to do this some other time. I have to leave now." I informed her in a rush as I was in a hurry to leave. “Wait, you can't just leave me here alone. Where are you going?" Funke didn't look pleased at all but what can I do?“I am sorry, something important just came up. I am sorry I have to leave and besides you are not going to be alone, Emeka is goin

    Saturday morning had dawned with the promise of a day filled with camaraderie and the thrill of competition. As the sun stretched its golden fingers across the horizon, I found myself on the familiar football field close to my house. The grass, freshly kissed by the morning dew, provided the perfect stage for the beautiful game.Over two years had passed since I last graced this particular field, and the surprise was evident on the faces of those present. I had honed my football skills in the interim, and it showed as I effortlessly moved across the pitch. The rhythm of the game flowed through me, and I became a force to be reckoned with.Players selected themselves, and the teams took shape. Car tires, repurposed as makeshift goalposts, stood proudly at either end of the field. The captains, eager to secure the best players, hesitated when it came to choosing me. I was the last one picked, almost reluctantly, by a captain who had no other option. Little did he know the prowess I woul

    It can't be? I had my doubts that maybe it's a different Adebola Daniel. It can't be the same guy that raped Miss Esther back in school can it? Are all these some weird coincidences? It must be, even though I don't know Funke's brother personally, I want to believe he could not do such an evil act.But what if I am not wrong?...“Babe, what's wrong? I am talking to you but you are not replying to me." Sandra tapped me slightly.I have been carried away in my thoughts that I didn't realize that Sandra had been talking to me since.“Sorry babe. I am just lost in my thoughts," I apologized.“What are you thinking about?" She was curious and concerned.I couldn't possibly tell Sandra about Adebola Daniel because she will want to find out how I knew all this stuff and also about Funke and I don't have time to explain all that “It's nothing really...I'm just thinking about the football game I watched on Tuesday night," I lied.“Football game? I'm talking to you but you are thinking about

    It pains me deeply to see Funke hurting like that. I never imagined our first meeting for over 3 years would end up like this. I kept having flashbacks of the good old times I shared with her as I took my shower in the bathroom. I was smiling subconsciously as I remember the time that I had to back her to cross the street because everywhere was flooded and she was scared to put her foot into the clusters of water in the streets. She called me her hero that day but now I think I have turned from hero to zero or even a villain.Coming out from the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around my waist I dried up my skin and put on my clothes and just then my phone rang. Checking the calling I found out it was Emeka and a slight frown formed on my face.What could he possibly want? Well I will find out in school tomorrow because I am not picking his call. I kept busy dressing and other stuff while my phone kept ringing almost non-stop. I eventually left the phone on the bed and walked to the

    Funke is in my house, I kept repeating those words to myself. It's been ages since I last set my eyes on her, I wondered how she looks now? Does she still have those beautiful dimples of hers? Of course she must still have them. Dimples just don't disappear. Silly me.I was really excited to see her but I had to remain calm when I met her. I don't want to start acting all silly and excited around her like a clown.Pushing my head backward, I rested it on the car seat and became lost in my own thoughts....__________ When I arrived home I quietly walked to the main entrance door as if I was a criminal planning on robbing the house. Funke was nowhere to be found in the compound which could only mean one thing: she is inside the sitting room already.When I got close to the door I started hearing female laughter coming out of the sitting room. My best guess? It was Felicia and Funke.However there is only one way to be certain for sure so I opened the door as gently as possible and walk

    5:00 pm that same day, I was sitting on the couch watching a movie while soaking garri with milk and sugar after I had ate lunch. What can I say? I love soaking garri!I received a call from Sandra, she wanted to know the reason for the dispute between Ayo and I. I guess Ayo didn't say anything to her and she was worried, I told her nothing meaningful either...“Just forget about it, it's boys stuff will we be friends by tomorrow," I said over the phone.“Are you sure? Cause I hate seeing my boys fighting," she said, her voice soft and tender.“Yeah, don't worry yourself. Okay babe?" “Alright, if you say so. So what are you doing now? She asked.“I am soaking Garr. Come and join me," I said and that triggered her laughter.“Local boy. Don't finish it sha I am on my way." She teased me.After 30 minutes of talking nonsense we finally said our goodbyes and I ended the call with a smile on my face. Sandra always knows how to make me smile. I continued soaking my Garri before the doorb

    .I matched angrily to the male restroom to cool down. Turning on the sink tap I washed my face with the running water then took my head up, staring into the medium sized mirror that was hung on the wall.My heart was racing really fast as I gaze at my reflection in the mirror. I was extremely angry and even though I was trying my best to calm down, I kept having flashes in my head.“I don't need anyone…" I kept muttering to myself and just then someone walked into the restroom.It was Emeka and two of his friends; Wale and Paul. I didn't want any trouble so I decided to leave but as I walked away..“Why are you in a hurry to leave Chris?" Emeka's voice sounded mockingly from behind me.It was annoying but I ignored him regardless and proceeded to the door...but I was blocked off by Wale and Paul. Is this going to be the continuation of what happened the other day? I wondered. Emeka does not dare assault me in the school premises. Does he? “What do you guys want? Be fast about it be
