Golden Girls: A Nigerian Highschool Romance. ✓

Aliyah and Keith: VOLLEYBALL LOVE

"That is true" Success nods

"Girls I can see in their school sport magazine that this team is well trained by professional volleyball players including Taiwo Kendra the best in the Africa. They pay her high for her services" Aliyah says

"No wonder they are so good" Betty nods

"Oh no we are toast" Success groans into her pillow

"We aren't toast. We can leave here with a victory." Mary tries an encouraging line

"With a nought you mean. We will lose so bad it would be '40 - 0'" Success continues

"But on the bright side, their male team captain is hot. Like smoking hot." Aliyah smiles at them
The remaining three run to her side to take a look at the guy in question.

"Omg he is hot" success snatches the magazine from Aliyah's grasps

"Hey give that back" Aliyah demands

"Race y'all to the cafeteria" Success sprints to the cafeteria with the other three hot at her heals.

*************

Success pauses in awe as she runs into the cafeteria.

"The magazine wasn't kidding in the pictures. This place is grand." Aliyah comments as they meet Success

"It looks more like a French themed restaurant than a cafeteria. These kids are living the life" Betty touches the decor.

"Y'all get a grip" Mary interrupts "I'm hungry. Where is that big refrigerator you were talking about?"

"Found it" Aliyah opens the refrigerator door.

"My gosh they serve fried rice and rich salads and pork in their cafeteria?" Mary pushes Aliyah outta the way.

"Shut up. They literally serve them tea in the mornings" Success squats. "Super fancy herbal teas. What's this? " She holds up a container"Darjeeling tea? What dah hell is that?" She stuffs it back in the cupboard. Everything is too much for her to handle.

"Wait! Holl up! Is that turkey i see? " Aliyah picks the big wrap of turkey "no way. I'm eating this"

"I'll have some " Betty tells Aliya

"There's no need to share. There's more than enough"

"Let's not be wasteful. You can't finish that all by yourself"

They eat till 9:40 pm.
And venture to the school volleyball court to practice. It's unhealthy to eat before practicing but they didn't care. The court is a virtual court indoors.

They use the robotic balls to practice and so far, they've been failing miserably.

Aliyah makes a shot and fails again in blocking.

They hear claps and laughs from the doorway.

"Who are you guys?" Betty stands from her sitting position

"The female basketball team and a few from the male team" Aliyah answers

"Darling here knows who we are but she didn't define it enough. I am Lisa the captain of the female volleyball team of Anchor High. The team that would finally collect our championship tomorrow. Thank you for keeping it for us for the past six years in a row but we are taking it. No hard feelings huh?"

"It's ours and when we beat you we'll be keeping it" Aliyah responds with confidence

"Bold words there Aliyah. Team captain that can't even win a game in virtual volleyball." Lisa walks to their front followed by the others " you can check the high scores on that computer. I'm number 2. Keith is number 1"

"A game doesn't define our skills, Lisa" Mary interferes

"I see. You know what? we'll all see when we beat you guys nought tomorrow"
Lisa turns to a girl beside her " where is Keith anyway he's taking time"

"What now?" Betty asks Aliyah

"You get out of our training facility, losers" Another girl interrupts

"And who are you?" Success raises a brow
"Rhea the smasher" she smirks "haven't heard of me?"

"Uh no" Mary gives a puzzled look

"Well you'll see when I smash you all to powder on the court tomorrow. Ain't that right baby?" She turns to a guy at her left

"Sure as ever" he nods at her

"What's sure as hell is the fact that your boyfriend is so blind he can't see how ugly and skinny you are like a sheet of bones" Betty gets in her face and holds Rhea's hand up " darling add some weight or someone thicc like Mary......" Mary slaps her butt smirking  "..... Would steal 'em from right under your nose "

"Get out of my face you peasant" she screeches and pushes Betty to the floor

Betty gets up and storms over to her to give her a beating " oh it's on"

Success and Aliyah hold her down "Betty don't. Let's go" Aliyah pulls her out

"Yeah get out disgusting losers messing up our environment" Rhea spits at them

"Get ready to lose in your own territory" Mary fires back and slams the doors.

"Spoilt piece of shit" Success hits the wall

"Let's rest. We have a crazy day tomorrow" Aliyah starts walking away
