CHAPTER 2
Well what happened was that I finally agreed to be his girlfriend, yeah, I mean Daniel’s girlfriend, don’t get mad yet; like why did I give in? he kept on pressing and I could no longer take it anymore, like so much determination and trials just to get one girl to be his girlfriend. I actually think he is serious and he really loves me.
Before you start talking, hey! haven’t you heard of couples who dated from secondary school days? well, this would actually be one of those I assure you. After that day; he appeared in my house, and mum almost cut off my neck, I met Daniel in school and he was happy when I walked up to him talking with his newly found friends, and I tapped him on his shoulders. "I want to talk to you in private" I said, he went with me to the rest room, where I furiously warned him never to come to my house again; before he gets me into trouble, his smiles fell and he knelt down in apologies still pressing on how he was never going to hurt me, if I accept to be his girlfriend (I felt embarrassed) I begged him to stand up but he refused,it was already becoming a scene I wasn't prepared for. I told him if he could stand up, I will accept to being his girlfriend.
He stood up joyfully and I begged him that day never to hurt my feelings as this is the first time I am going into a relationship with someone, and my mother would kill me if she ever finds out, he immediately agreed and that was when we started dating as you will call it.
For a while it was really nothing different from when we were just friends, only that now, I carry the title “Daniel’s girlfriend” and he bares the title “her boyfriend."
It was already two weeks before the SSCE exams, and everyone was heads up burning candles; while some other unserious students still prefers skipping classes and sneaking out of the school compound, to places I have no idea of, but I know it was certainly not somewhere good or educating.
Rumors had it that most of those girls as they are called “slay queens” go out from school, to meet with men that would sleep with them and give them money, this set off girls always disgust me whenever I see them.
One Wednesday in school, during break, I was getting my books in my bag, so I could run out to the JSS 3 class for a weekly student scripture union fellowship; where I was the secretary of the fellowship. Preye one of the slay queens, the leader as a matter of fact walked into the class with Azibayam her closest ally.
Immediately they noticed me in class; they came towards me, and I wasn’t really for any troubles that morning, but I could really give it to them if they push me to the wall. They are known for going about the school bullying helpless student, but for me, I am not as timid as most student they bully.
When they got closer, Azibayam spoke first, "hmm.., Mama Jesus you are getting ready for service." "Leave this one, all this scripture union people doing as if they are better than us whereas they do worst than we do," Preye added, "At least we nor dey hide our own oh," retorted Azibayam, and they both burst into laughter in mockery. I got my bag and walked towards the exit of the class, but they stood in front of me. "you aren’t going anywhere" they both said. "Preye and Azib, look, am not ready for this your games this morning, as you can see am on my way to service like you called it and I am getting late" I said to them. Preye responded "You are going nowhere! Go back to your seat I want us to talk." I was already getting pissed, so I tried to push them out of my way. "I have nothing to talk to you about." Before I knew what was going on, a hard pain surfaced my cheek.
