MARIE'S HIGH - CHAPTER FIVE

PA MY FOOT!!! "Big sis, I've been so worried about you", Gbemi led me inside the house when I was done with my useless adventure "Did you catch that bastard?", she patted my back so I'll be able to breathe normally after running too much. "No", I lied. "Too bad", She was angry. "I was hoping you'd teach him a bitter lesson!" "Where's Bola", I turned to ask no one in particular. "She's with her new friends who bought me an ice cream", Segun answered yet focused on playing wort cards with his elder brother who kept cheating him and winning.

I felt proud of myself for getting the answer correctly yet afraid of what he'll do to my only allie in the school at that point in time. In the middle of nowhere, Mr. Yemi called my name again and addressed me as one who do to the Queen of England, "What should I do to miss Shola?" "Please pardon her, sir", I pleaded on her behalf. "Alright, the new class representative has spoken", he reached for his black leather briefcase on the teacher's desk, "class dismissed!" Class representative? I didn't know the responsibilities of such a person and wasn't interested in any school post anyway so I didn't really take him seriously. After closing hour, i
