I on the other hand was prepared to defend myself from such despicable accusations, I won't let Emeka ruin my life with his evil lies, because of this unhealthy jealousy he has for me.
Emeka had always been jealous of me since I could remember. It started when we were both in junior secondary school (jss). Back then Emeka was like the king of the school, he was rich, handsome and was good at football, he had many friends and the girls were always flocking around him but his fame didn't last long because due to the crisis in the North (Boko Haram) my parents had to relocate, leaving their business and everything they had.
We moved down to the West to live in Lagos. Life wasn't really easy at first as my family had lost a lot of money because everything we had was in the North but later on both my parents got a job although we were not as rich as we used to be when we were in the North, we weren't poor either.
I had also left my former school in the North so I had to enroll in Brilliant International school, which was unfortunately the school Emeka was in, and obviously I was better than Emeka in everything he was good at.
I was also more good-looking than he was so the girls left him for me including the girl he loved so much back then, Funke.
What used to be his world, his kingdom was now mine. Emeka was angry and jealous of me. He knew the only thing he had more than me was his father's wealth, so he vowed that he won't make me happy, that any girl I love he is going to do everything to get her because he has this saying ‘every girl has a price, and he is every girl's dream.' Meaning he has the money to get any girl he wants. However I won't let his jealousy and sick game cus me my life, so I had to stand up for myself...
“Sir, all Emeka said is not true. They are all lies! I never planned to hurt Sandra, nor her Dad!! He tells lies!" I made my voice heard.
“Why are you denying what you said? You told your best friend Ayo and he was the one that told us. Not just me but half of the whole class." Emeka said.
“I never said I was going to rape someone's daughter and send it online. You are such a liar. Was it my fault that everyone likes me more than you? Is it my fault that I'm better-looking than you? Was it my fault Funke left you for me then? and now Sandra chose me and not you?"
I lashed at him, all the while the principal just kept quiet. Perhaps he was trying to figure out who was lying and who was telling the truth or maybe he was just totally shocked at what we were saying.“Don't you ever mention Funke's name again!"
The sound of Emeka's voice was that of an angry man.“I warned you that you will pay for taking everything from me then, that's why I took Jessica from you and I will also do the same to Sandra."I laughed at him mockingly.
“Jessica means nothing to me, but Sandra means the world and I won't let you have her. I won't let you ruin what I and she share because of your jealous hateful heart."
It was as if Emeka had forgotten that we were both in the principal's office, maybe because the principal had been quiet for so long or it's because Emeka was so angry that he was speaking without thinking.
“Sandra would never believe you, after what I told her, she is such a fool she believed everything I said and that's how I will get her for myself."
I was amazed at what I just heard, unknowingly to Emeka he had just confessed in front of I and the principal and finally the principal decided he had heard enough.
“Both of you shut up! Don't you have any respect for my office and my personality?! Shouting like mad dogs."
The principal said in a frown. Then he took his eyes to Emeka.“ So you told lies about your classmate? And a very big lie at that."Emeka realising that he had just implicated himself was speechless.
However, the principal suspended both of us for two weeks for fighting and told us to bring our parents to school.I was happy because I was not expelled only suspended, but I was sad that I won't see Sandra for the next 14 days, I haven't explained to her what really happened, she still hates me, the only person I was blaming right now for this was my best friend Ayo, I was so angry at him for putting me in this mess.
The Principal sent for Mr President, Sandra's father( Mr Uche) to his office and told him everything that just happened..
They had been talking for about an hour, while I and Emeka waited outside. Emeka couldn't look at me in the eyes, his grand evil plan of ruining my life had failed and I am sure he is feeling stupid now but I careless of how Emaka feels. I just want to make things right with Sandra...
Some minutes later Mr President came out, and told us to go to our classroom but warned us not to go close to his daughter ever again or else we will wish we were dead.
How cool now, just how cool. I have her father also to worry about, this is just getting worse!
Me and Emeka entered into the classroom, and we were met with a thousand questions from our classmates who wanted to find out the outcome, but we both were quiet, cause in some way we both lost, we both got the same punishment and it seems we both have lost Sandra for good.
Ayo tried talking to me but I brushed him aside. Teachers came in to take us lectures and time kept moving...finally it was closing period, we had an emergency assembly where the principal announced that we had been suspended for two weeks, this made the whole school not be at ease as students kept murmuring throughout until the assembly was over.
We all left for our various homes. For me this will be the longest two weeks of my life.
So what do you think so far?
You can leave your comment below.I got home that day, told my parents what happened. I must admit it was not easy telling them, especially when I had to tell them I have been suspended from school for 2 weeks and that the principal had asked for one of their presence in school.My Mom was just so angry and disappointed,shouting and cursing Emeka. You know how mother's used to behave, while my father was as calm as calm can be, he didn't say more than what was necessary, he asked when he needed to be present in school and gave me some advice on life Matters...TWO DAYS have passed since I was suspended. My parents and I had gone to meet with the principal, and I was fined 30,000 naira for fighting and disturbing the peace of the school. I told you my principal knows how to get money involved in everything, yeah such an opportunist.My dad paid the fine and we both headed home.. However, on our way out of the school compound, a Range Rover Sport 2022 model was just making its way into the s
“Ahhhhhh!!!" That was the sound I made while forcing myself to get out of bed for two weeks now I have been waking up any time I please, the earliest was around 10:00 AM but now I had to force myself to wake up around 6 AM, some part of me wished the suspension continued, but it was for the best it ended, because I was eager to see Sandra and explain myself to her regardless of what her father had said earlier. She must have calmed down by now, she would listen to me I guess.I sluggishly took my bath and fixed a quick breakfast before I took off to school....Arriving at the school gate.“Ahh," I took a deep breath wondering what awaits me at the other side of the gate.Has my name been cleared? Or have they added more lies to my head? All these questions kept entering my head as I opened the gate and went in.I noticed people were talking about me as soon as I walked by them, I tried to pretend as if I wasn't hearing or seeing t
When we arrived at the hospital we went straight to the ward where Ayo was being treated. His mum was there with him and I heard she had not left her son's side since the day he was admitted to the hospital.Ayo lay unconscious in the bed, only still living because of the mechanical oxygen being passed through his nose by a machine. It was horrible, I didn't know when tears started licking from my eyes. I felt really pity for Ayo but more for his mother. It's never easy for a mother to see her son lying in a sick bed almost lifeless without being able to do anything to help him.On seeing us Ayo's mom was happy, she told Ayo that visitors are here to see him, that his best friend, who is me, is here to see him as if Ayo was able to see or hear anything she was saying.However I do admire her optimistic spirit, she still believes her son can still pull through from this and I want to share that belief as well.."It's nice you came to check on my son,
In my room reflecting on what happened today, having mixed feelings of joy and sadness. Joy because I have patched things up between myself and Sandra but sadness because of the state in which Ayo was in.I wonder if I will ever hear his voice again, then the thought of me and Sandra almost kissing came to my mind like a flash which made me smile in the midst of my sadness.“Miss Esther just spoiled the show."I said out loud to myself.I wondered what Sandra's lips would taste like? I closed my eyes and started to visualize I was holding Sandra in my arms and about to give her a kiss....Knock!!knock!!What the FUCK! I can't even kiss her in my own imagination without being interrupted!“Who is that!!!!" I said in a frown.“It's me," I heard Felicia voice say.What can this girl possibly want? I wondered. Guess I will have to find out.“Come in, the door isn't locked."Felicia walked
Two days passed, me and Sandra had become very close, but she wasn't yet my girlfriend, hopefully I should ask her out this Saturday if everything goes as planned, the inter house sport practice was still on going so in a week we only have lectures on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday while Tuesday and Friday are for inter house sport practiceEmeka have been quiet since is as if nothing had happened between us, I know it most hurt him seeing me and Sandra together despite all he did to separate us but I don't think he will give up that easily so I always watch my back,sadly Ayo's condition hasn't improved despite doctors effort, they have even advice his parent to cut off his life support cus they see no sign of improvement, but his parent refuse to pull the plug that still kept there son alive although this treatment it's very expensive, I don't know how long they can keep that up.I am really sad for Ayo and I wish him the best but that doesn't mean I can't have
We kissed for a lengthy period of time before we finally stopped. It was really amazing her lips tasted like the purest of honey, I held her firm in my arms, looking straight to her eyes as if I am seeing through it, this made her uncomfortable, but I kept on staring at her eyes, I could see her blushing all over.“You are damn beautiful and I want you for myself, I want to be the one who comforts you when you are sad, I want to be the one who brings you joy, I want to be the one you think of before you sleep, and the one you dream of when you fast asleep, the first one you think of when you wake up because you are these things and even more to me," I said.“I don't know what to say," Sandra said.“Just say you love me and would be my girlfriend."“Yes, I love you and I am happy to be your girlfriend."She said and we both kissed again and to my surprise it was even better than the first kiss. I was so happy
This Sunday was the worst Sundays of my life, I was just completely useless, I couldn't do anything, I didn't have the courage to dial Sandra's phone in case her father picks the call again, my heart was beating very fast as if had been running a marathon race since I came back from my date with Sandra, even my parents notice that I wasn't my usual self cus I didn't bother watching the Epl matches and in the evening when my and my dad favorite team Barcelona were playing there la liga match I had no interest in watching them all what was on my mind was Sandra and her dad.“Son, come watch the game with me, it's about to start," my dad said.“Sorry dad, but I am not interested in today's game." I declined.“Since when did you start missing Barça matches?" My dad looked surprised.“I am just not feeling fine, dad."“Are you sick?"“No dad," I replied.“Are you sure?"“Y
Chris POVWe were the topic in class today, as I and Sandra held hands, laughed unnecessary to each other's jokes, we were like two puppies fooling around.“Chris the whole class is staring at us," Sandra said in a slightly shy tone.“Yeah I know but I don't care. You are mine now like I am yours, so it's only you I want to make happy." I said and she blushed.“That's so sweet, I would like for us to go out again, I want it to be only the two of us." She said,“Yeah me too, but this time I won't be wearing a jacket!" I joked.We both laughed...Lectures started as I tried my best to concentrate on what the teacher was teaching but from time to time, I and Sandra's eyes met and we both smiled. I had to control myself from kissing her each time she smiled at me, it felt like heaven.3 HOURS LATERWe were deep into Miss Esther's lec
