Alice's POV
-Friday-
It was morning and the morning sun shone on Pearl and I as we hung around the school, it was few minutes to 7AM, we still have about an hour till it will be time for the assembly.
"With what you told me about Raymond , telling you to leave Albert and go to your class, don't you think he might just pick you at the quiz today ,there are rumours that the head boy might have took interest in you." Pearl, my best friend said.
"Raymond is cold hearted and dangerous, did you see how he suspended me for good four weeks, you have no idea how hard I had been reading to cover up for the four weeks I missed, he could just expel me....I'm scared of what he may do....though, if he tries nonsense next time, I will still slap him." I said.
"So he can kiss you in return." Pearl said and we both laughed.
"Let's get ice cream." She said and
Chapter 25Alice's POVPearl ran to me and pouted her lips.Raymond had faded out of sight."Tell me what just happened? I couldn't introde, I was scared." Pearl asked, with so much curiosity.She will hit my head angirly if I hide the gist from her."I don't understand the head boy, my ice cream mistakenly fell on his legs but he bought a new one for me and also told the ice cream man that he should put all the bill of the ice cream I will be purchasing from now henceforth on him.""Are you serious?" Pearl screamed and jumped up happily.I was still recovering from the shock of what the head boy had just done."I said it, he likes you." She teased me and I shot her an annoying look but I was blushing inside."Remember you were owing me $50, the money we used
Alice's POVPearl and I arrived at my house, the door were locked and a sealed carbon paper was on the ground.I picked it and saw a substantial amount of money on it."But who could this person be?" Pearl asked."An helper, I guess." I replied.I opened the door and walked inside, I changed into a different drëss. Pearl also changed into one of my drêss.We've got same stature so my clothes fits her well.We walked away swiftly and chattered a car to the airport, we went to the emergency department and told them how important where we were going was.After examining our words, they told us to wait for another one hour, we would be following the 2PM flight to California.Pearl and I went to sit on the chairs, waiting for one hour to reach so we can fly to California.
Alice's POVPearl and I were suppose to be chatting as we seated waiting for the the 2PM flight but I wasn't in the mood. She tried to bring up conversations severally but I was not active in replying.I was wondering what position my mom would be, for her not to be treated in an hospital here, then it must be very critical.My phone rang and I didn't even notice, it was Pearl that alerted me. I had been lost in thought.I wish that it was my dad, I had dialed his number severally but it was not going through.I picked it up and his voice came!"Did you come home, Alice?" He asked."Sure dad, are you at California already?" I asked.He paused for few seconds and later said; "California?""Yes....Aren't you there?" I asked.The way he pronounced 'California' w

Head Boy.Written by Feathers.Chapter 30Alice's POVI had almost got to the crowd when I heard my name being called by the head boy. I closed my eye and pinched myself to be sure I wasn't dreaming.I was still facing the crowd and backing the head boy and his brothers.My eyes opened and it met with that of Pearl, she was winking happily at me. I could see so much enthusiasm in her.But, could it be my own Alice Anderson?I turned nevertheless to the head boy and his brothers and I saw him staring at me.I blushed and walked with my head slightly lowered to him.The crowd began to clap and chant my name; "Alice!

Head BoyWritten by Feathers.Chapter 32Alice's POVI placed Marie on the floor and he began to wiggle his tail happily.Raymond sat still, not looking at my face nor speaking to me."Marie! She's here, are you happy now?" I heard him ask his dog.Shouldn't he at least tell me to sit?Well, I sat and watched him and his dog as they converse.The dog rubbed his head on his lap and ran inside, the dog came back with a picture and he showed it to Raymond."Marie! Why are you like this?" Raymond asked and Marie barked expressing his dissatisfaction at Raymond's word."Sorry, but... She's petty and would think odd... I'm sorry, I can't do this for you." Raymond said said Marie and Marie stared sadly at Raymond.He walked to the
AliceI was standing with the head girl at the perfect stand pole in the assembly hall. All prefects were on tag so anyone would have easily known that I came late and was ready to be punished.I waited till the usual assembly events unfolded, the head girl whispered to the assembly prefect and she went on stage to whisper to Leonard who was addressing the students after the principal’s speech.Leonard nodded in response to what the assembly prefect told him and he faced the student and said; “Something quiet fun, yet demeaning is about to happen.”The crowds began to murmur, wondering what was about to happen.“Unlikes others who arrived late and will serve their punishment after the assembly hour, there is a female student that will be serving her punishment differently.” Leonard said and the murmur continued amidst the student.“Guess what she will be doing?” Leonard chuckled
AliceI had just returned from lunch and was to gist Pearl all that happened but his face was disturbing and full of fear when I sighted her.I settled first and asked; "Pearl, what's going on?""They had find out that Raymond's result was changed indeed, they are presently investigating those that changed it." Pearl said and my heart skipped fearfully.If we are caught, it's an automatic expulsion for me.That would be a bad news for my poor mom and dad."Why don't you confess to the head boy, maybe he can help us...he likes you and will protect you." Pearl said."Imagine that you are the head boy and someone came to confess to you that he changed your result....remember it led to his public disgrace, how would you feel?" I asked."I'll feel bad, indeed." Pearl said and turned back to her desk."We would be expelled if we are c
