~°~°~°~°~
I had convinced Judith yesterday, to make a trip. Now, it was left for her to convince her parents into coming. Hopefully, they'll see to her demands and let her make the trip.
"If it isn't Tatiana, the psycho." I was brought out of memory lane, as I watched Rosemary obstruct the only way of getting to class.
Rosemary was one of the mean girl I had just encountered. Apparently, she was a female sport prefect and also captain of the female basketball's team. Yeah I knew Tatiana felt like a psycho. But that was if I wanted to judge her by her suicidal mission or the secret she kept locked up.
But even with that said, I won't let a rich spoilt brat call her a psycho. Especially when I'm supposed to be her for the time being.
"Get out of my way," I demanded with tight lips. Rosemary didn't scare me. I knew I could beat her there and then.
"Or what?" She scoffed out loud and folded her arms below her chest. Her two minions at the back, did the same thing. "Kill me?"
What?
I knitted my brows at her, and moved forward a bit. "Why would you think I'll kill you?"
"Why wouldn't I?" Rosemary laughed and flipped her hair backward. "When you've done it before."
"D-Done it before?" I stammered a bit, as I tried to process everything out.
"Stop acting dumb," She snapped her fingers, gaining the attention of her two minions. "Come on girls, psychos are contagious." She moved passed me, bumping my shoulder in the process.
Soon, I began to hear footsteps rush towards me. Lifting my head up, I realised it belonged to Irene and Omonigho.
"We came as quick as we can, when we noticed Rosemary harassing you." Irene breathed out. "Are you okay?"
Shaking every thought from my head, I muttered. "I'm fine."
"You know," Omonigho walked closer to me. "People have started calling her the new Eno."
"Who?" I asked. "Rosemary?" Omonigho nodded her head.
"Eno wasn't this self-centered," Irene voiced out, before cracking her knuckles out of annoyance. "And if she thinks she can intimidate us with her Eno wanna be attitude, then she's got another thing coming. Cause I'm gonna beat her till she drops."
"Slow down your horses girl," Omonigho placed her hands on Irene's shoulders. "Not everything revolves around violence."
"She said psychos are contagious," I said to Omonigho and Irene. Omonigho and Irene, stopped whatever they were doing, to look at me.
"Please," Irene brushed off, as she walked towards me. "If psychos were contagious, then Dami would have contacted it from the previous head boy. Thank God Jeremiah was there to help find that psycho."
Jeremiah.
"What's wrong with you, T?" Omonigho demanded, squinting her eyes at me. "Don't tell me you're scared of Rosemary, cause you never were."
I suddenly cleared my throat. "Who told you I'm scared of her? I'm just being conscious."
The automatic bell which indicated it was time for assembly, called our little meeting to a close.
"Let's go," I said, suddenly walking ahead of the two girls.
I should learn not to slip into my personality.
~°~°~°~°~
The assembly almost became a disaster. The principal had wanted me - the supposed head girl - to address my fellow students. I was shaking like crazy, as I tried to ascend the podium. But all of a sudden, Jeremiah got hold of my wrist and stepped me aside.
He then turned to the principal and told him that he wanted to address the students, cause he had an announcement to make. I was super thankful when the principal agreed to his demands.
Turns out the swim team, had a competition in three weeks time and they were meant to hit the indoor pool frequently for training.
Sucks to be them.
I walked side by side with Omonigho and Irene, as we approached our classroom upstairs. The classroom would have been empty if it hadn't been for Jubilee, whom was seated at the back roll, with his feet up his desk.
"Typical Jubilee," Commented Irene. "Trying to be a rebel wanna be."
Omonigho laughed as we took our seats. "That rhymed." I would have laughed too, if I didn't have some pressing matters on my plate.
Students began to find their way to their seat. Making the once empty classroom, lively again.
The maths teacher walked into the class, with a stern look plastered on his face - another subject I seriously hated.
I watched as he wrote the word 'Maths', on the white bored, with a red marker. He was soon interrupted as the classroom door flew open and in came our class teacher. I knew she was the class teacher cause she had met me on my first day here, to ask how I was doing.
"We've gotten a new student today," She stated, as she stood in the middle of the classroom. I averted my attention away from her, then focused on my backpack as I began to search for my math notebook. "Come in Femi Godswill."
I paused.
My hands stopped searching my backpack for my note book. Instead, my brain digested the name the class teacher had just called.
Did she just say Femi Godswill? Aka the same Femi that had been asking me out in the ghetto and I refused? Aka the same Femi that I had to throw sand in his eyes cause of his constant disturbances? Aka the same Femi I had threatened to shout rape, when he stopped me on my way home with a drum on my head?!
I slowly lifted my head, to see Femi standing in between the maths and class teacher. His eyes scanned the classroom with a smile on his face.
And soon, the inevitable happened. Femi and I's eyes connected. I watched as a shock look fell across his face. Seeing me alive and well in a classroom would come as a shock to him.
Soon, Femi recovered from the mild shock. And instead of him having his charming smile back on his face, it was replaced with a deadly scowl.
And that's when I knew my cover at being Tatiana, was threatened.
God, I'm so screwed.
Eddy : Dun! Dun!! Dun!!!
Femi is now at Blossom High?!
Would he make it easy for our dear Uyai?
And what the hell is wrong with Rosemary?
Do you think the title of being the new Eno suits her?
