MARIE'S HIGH - CHAPTER EIGHT

ALCOLIFIED🍻 The clubhouse was just how I saw in movies. Even though it had Air conditioners, it was stuffy and loud. It also had blinding lights, alcoholic drinks on display, and teenagers dressing indecently. It was definitely not a place for someone like me. "What would you like to have, Miss Flirtie?" I found my way to the counter after my friends were distributed generously among the crowd. I kept wondering why she called me that name until she also said, "Yh...you're the girl who was flirting with DJ Freaky right?" She examined me from head to toe. "That's not true!" I sat on a high stool facing her."A can of Malta  Guinness with some assorted meat please". "Check your bill here, she handed me a piece of their price catalogue. "Don't worry, I politely returned the price catalogue."Thanks". I couldn't afford to buy a can of malt for three thousand naira because I still hadn...

MARIE'S HIGH - CHAPTER SEVEN

PARTY IN THE AIR! Nevertheless, the girls only hurled insulting words at me. They didn't want to stain their tender hands with my innocent blood. They also advised me to stay away from him because Rose was capable of doing worse things to me if I didn't. Before the hour for extra-curricula activities, our homeroom teacher shared some pamphlets amidst us which provided vital information about the schoot clubs. I wasn't in the mood to participate in any energy-draining activity so I went to hide in the infirmary. While marching out of the school's gate later in the, I called to tell grandma about my literature project which needed to be finalized at home with a male classmate, and without much hesitation, she agreed to host him especially because he was DJ Freaky, my knight in shining armor. She allowed him to sit with us in the dining room and have wraps of semovita with egusi soup which had chunks of dried fish, smoked fish, stocked fish, slices of ugwu, and bitter l...

MARIE'S HIGH - CHAPTER SIX

MY KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR "Hi, girls", I acted as if everything was normal." It's nice seeing you, again" "Hi, Niffy", Rose grinned, placed her arms around my stiff neck, and led me to her dark Mercedes Benz. Thereafter, she covered my eyes with a blindfold then lay me flat to experience Michelle's rough ride. Also at an underground basement with dangerous weapons like guns, swords, brand new cutlasses scattered everywhere, the skull and crossed bone sign all over, traces of dry blood, and iron rod, they tied my hands, mouth, and legs to a wing chair. I also went through the agony of watching my cherished belongings (phone, laptop, shoes) burn in a metal bowl of fire. With eyes filled with anger, resentment, hatred, bitterness, jealousy, revenge, and painful pleasure, Rose and the other girl hit me at intervals, using a horsewhip. I pleaded for forgiveness and tried to explain what happened since she accused me of trying to seduce her boyfri...

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. My ganga mood was activated because Bola drove me crazy. How could she have gone out without caring about my welfare while I was out there defending her! She didn't even think about the safety of her siblings! But upon realizing being angry did me no good, I became calm. I didn't want to give myself an unnecessary headache or high blood pressure. ...

MARIE'S HIGH - CHAPTER FOUR

SIBLINGS SITTING ALERT!!! "I'm so sorry, Rose. I didn't mean it", I made an attempt to clean her messed up uniform with my bare hands since I couldn't find my handkerchief on time. "Take your filthy hands off me, idiot!", She shouted at me and I patiently waited to get assault by her again since there was no way to avoid her wrath. Timmy then entered the cafe in his awkward walking pattern to request for my prompt attention at Mr. Jeffrey's office. I pleaded for Rose's forgiveness and quickly ran out of the cafe with him. "I'm not as good as you in sprinting", Timmy stopped at some point to catch his breath. "Stop kidding me, Timmy", I laughed. "I've never considered myself good in any sport". "You're pretty good actually", we decided to walk. "Actually, I pulled that prank on Rose to save you from being humiliated by Rose", he spilled the beans. "You shouldn't have done...
