The sunset showed it ray of yellow colour from a distanced to me, closed to where the students' played football. Some set of people ran after the ball in different colour of sports wear. They had their coach, Saleem. And they had an average guys as their post keeper.

Few ladies jogged around the field making sure they were not closed to the football field. The whispered of the footballers took over the whole field.

I walked down a little longer and viewed Brad and Lina chatting closed to the audience section. I stopped as my hand was on my bag handled. Lina released her beautiful smile, and he did the same.

I wondered what this was all about.

They took a glimpse of me as they both tilted their head to my direction. Sweat slipped down his forehead, then a small dropped of the liquid was visible on his small beards. I wrapped my arm around me. They looked back at each other, smiled and waved hands as Brad scurried back to the field.

"Hey babe!" Lina rushed down to me.

I am actually lucky to know someone like you.""Really?" I raised my head to stare at him."Hmm! Hmm! From the first day I met you, I know you would be a unique person.""Eish! I am not flattered.""That makes you different." He said with a smiling face."Are you trying to ma –"He burst out laughing."Kidding me?" "I am not. Not even a single tears fall off Ai.

I will never stop," he held my hand on my lap. "Ai! I am sorry for earlier.""For what exactly. For messing up my hair or for thinking that of me?" I still put on a smiling face."For all!" We both laughed out loud. "For Kelvin too.""I am not hurt by whatever happened down there. I am

    My eyes landed on a fair skin lady that has her sit beside ours. She had her hair bonded like mine and she was chatting with a guy in front of her."Guess you are playing games with me kid." Kelvin sit back, relaxed.I glared at Brad as his gaze were still on Kelvin."Now I get this. You have been avoiding me because of him right?" I looked back at Kelvin. "Do you threaten him to stay away from me?"He cackled irritatedly. "It is just a deal. He will never stop interfering," he shrieked, "because he is in love with you, right kid?""Hmm!" I ogled at Brad, then he just smirked."Even if you keep interfering, that won't stop me from moving close to her." He grabbed me on the arm aggressively."Hey!" Brad screamed, full of raged."Calm down. Since you don't keep your promise then, I won't keep mine either.""What the fuck is going on here? As Ai becomes a deal between you guys now?" Lina said in a verge of tears."Hey you!"Lina gasped out anxiously."Hey!" I yelled back at him, then ever

    "Are you saying they won't be showing up?""I hope they do. Mum is really angry at me for the first time. She isn't even speaking to me." I bent my head on the desk in the science class.Lina rubbed my hair down to my back. "I guess I am the cause of the tension going on in your family."I got up reluctantly. My eyes settled on the white clean board in the little classroom. "It is bound to happen," I stared at her with a smile plastered on my lips. "It is not your fault.""And Brad? Have you– have you seen him today?""And why? Why are you asking? Why must I see him?" My voice came out louder than before."I– I am just asking, it is nothing." She hummed."Don't even think of it. That move made me hate him the more, I can't even stand him right now. All I am worried about is my parents' and the freedom of all students'."She hollered at me as I walked out of the classroom, down to the corridor."Heyyy, my baby Ai!" Daniel tightened his fist towards me. "Chop knuckles."I smiled slightl

    "Young lady, come sit here." The man with bald head directed in an hoarse voice."Yes sir," I sat down in front of Kelvin, a large white table was placed between us and we both dropped our hands on it."We are sorry to both parents' for the impromptu meeting. This won't take much of our time as the decision will be make shortly by the majority."There was a slim woman beside Kelvin, so beautiful with cute cat eyes. I wondered if she wasn't able to train him properly or he just didn't heed. It is not by beauty actually."From history, it is said that Kelvin had been rusticated from three different school before he came here to st. Anthonio. We accepted him without looking at the consequences, but still he rides everyone because he is older," the man sighed, Mr Jack."Thanks to this smart lady who raised her voice. My decision was to make him explain himself, maybe he could be pardon, but not anymore this time. What he has done, even to our young teachers is above pardon now.""I don't u

    "Vacation, yeah vacation." I gave a fake smile."Why haven't you inform your parents' about it. You are going in a week time after your examination." Mr. Tobe spilled out."I am, I am just waiting for the best time. I am still going to tell them." Mum shook her head, she believed my lies. She mustn't find out I don't wanna go because of them. I don't think I can live without them for so much days, but mum counted it as been dependent."Hey Ai, how was it? I saw Kelvin leaving with a woman. Successful right?" Lina was wild with joy."Noo, I am afraid it wasn't what we expected. I told you doing this will just be useless, can you now see it's pointless." I placed my palm on my forehead decisively."What," she slipped her hand from my arm, felt disappointed."Ai, that is bad for a friend, come on." Mum smiled a little.I cracked up."Are you kidding me?" "I am sorry," I laughed again. "Kelvin has gone for good, there is no more Kelvin, okay?""Oh my God Ai. I love you." Satisfaction set

    "But mum, I don't want to." "Why don't you want to? Come to dad." Dad ordered."I don't want you to confuse me about anything. I just don't wanna go. It should be my choice mum." I stood up from the chair to leave for my room."Ai, your dad want to speak to you and you are leaving." Mum stopped me."I am sorry dad." I faced the other side.I felt a palm on my shoulder. "I understand you. Can we talk at least? Please.""Dad," I turned to him. "What is it?" I frowned."You are beautiful when you smile." He raised up my chin."Dad," I encircled him in my arms. "I wanna stay dad. Don't confuse me please.""Living in the midst of people it's like living in different world entirely. Do you even know how it works?" He embraced me back."Do I need to answer that question dad?" "Yes, let me know what you think about that.""Hmm! I don't know how it works." I dropped my chin on his shoulder."Will you love to know how? What is your knowledge about self defense?"I sighed, "yes, and then – self

    "Hi!" A voice found it way through the headphone in my ear, down to my eardrum.I sat down at the back of the class watching a video titled #defendher on YouTube by artist maria such a damn self defender.I gazed up to see a chubby figure in front of me. "Hey hello," I smiled at her."I wasn't expecting to see you here sitting all alone. It is not always like you, so I just wanna check if everything is fine with you." Dora could be called a dumb one always, but she was caring and if she was given the chance to befriend anyone, I am pretty sure she would do it well without regret."Are you busy?" I asked her."No. What could I be busy with after the end of an exam." She adjusted her glasses as usual as if it wanted to fall off."Alright. Why don't you come sit with me, let's enjoy this together." I swayed my phone across her face."Sure, thank you. I still don't know how to describe how much you amaze me always," she plopped down beside me. "Aside from Akila who teased me, you are the

I said in a mouth filled with sliced of watermelon."Why am I not aware of that?" Mum had a toothpick in her mouth as she said."Hmm!""Hmm! Your dad could be lying about that." She focused on her plate of fruits."How did I came across you? I am still wondering." Dad talked back to mum. "Dad, so you never – gosh, you are telling lies now." I laughed out."Your mother is something else. She could have kept the secret that I have never been there." He gestured."I love the truth, yah truth," she chuckled. "By the way, I love the idea of the IB city""How come you guys never went there? Where have you spent your entire childhood?" I fisted my both hand on my cheek."Lagos and USA. It is never fun right? I agree, but we met with amazing people though. The likes of Amy – I missed them a lot." Mum smiled, and looked back at the plates."Wow! I ne

    Dad moved out of his room as I was about walking out of the house to school. Our eyes on each other. His sympathy gaze caught my attention, calling for forgiveness. I still can't help to think of it, that my dad was actually responsible for my mum misfortune."Hi love!"I nodded my head and stared at him with strong gaze.

I smiled in a tight lips then she did the same with a small of her teeth exposed out.I watched my steps carefully as I moved up the stairs like they told me not to put my foot on ground. There was only one room with a black door at the right hand of the corridor.
