EDITED
IDARA'S POV
CHAPTER EIGHT
"Daniel let's go I don't want just anybody talking to me." He said as he rolled his eyes.
he did not even wait for their response, he just left.
I wanted to borrow cotton bud to make sure if what I heard was wrong or right.
Daniel and Ayo also had a surprised look on his face.
Ayo quickly recovered,
"I am so sorry; he has a lot going on. I am sure he didn't mean that." He explained,
I just nodded cause all words had died in my mouth.
I really felt like the ground could open up and swallow me. The expression on people's face made it worse.
Ayo left the classroom and walked after a particular someone.
"I am so sorry for that." Daniel apologized again and left the class.
"do not take it to heart, Idara." Angel said and rubbed my back. I shook my head and walked back to my seat.
"you should listen to her; Femi is the real definition of a jerk." Liz added making me chuckle.
First Britney drama, now Femi's own. What would happen next? Especially now that I thought that I was coping and fitting in.
"uhm, let's light up the mood. What were you talking about before?" Liz asked after lots of efforts to make my smile come back.
I just shook my head,
"don't bother." I said back and thankfully the teacher entered the class.
What was the use of saying that when the person in picture said I was a nobody?
I was not coping, I was drowning.
.......
"why is everyone running to the field?" I was really confused.
It was finally time for sports, and everyone was running to the field.
"we are having the first football match of the year." Liz explained, we were also walking to the field and even though I did not really like football, I had no other choice since everyone was present in the stadium.
"and Daniel begged me to come." She said dreamily, of course.
"don't flatter yourself, even if he did not, we would still go." Angel tackled making me laugh.
We finally got to the large stadium. We fought our way to the front and miraculously found three empty seats. We sat down and watched as the cheerleaders of our school consisting of the Britney and her gangs did some little stunts.
It was not quite little to be truthful; they had the whole summersault stunts going on that if not for the feud we had between us, I would have been really captivated.
After their little stunts the footballers from the other school were called in. the supporters from their school cheered them,
When royal school was called in, the whole stadium was filled with cheers. I could recognize Femi and his crew from afar. No wonder Daniel told her to come.
After thirty minutes of them passing the ball around and me stuffing my mouth with popcorn angrily.
The others were busy being angry since we were losing but I could not care less. I even had a big smile on my face as I watched the opponent score another goal.
When the match was finally over, royals lost with one goal.
"I can't believe we lost." Liz said
I grinned inwardly, serve them right.
"yeah me too, Femi is still probably in that bad mood, and he left our precious Idara in that mood too." Angel added,
I shrugged,
"I have to go. The driver is waiting." they both smiled sadly as I walked out of the building. They were waiting for Daniel who went to change in the changing room.
I decided to just be away a little bit, reduce the trekking and just not try to fit in. and that led to the reason why I needed to leave before the driver would go.
................................
I entered our car; this was my second or third time entering it on the way back to our house.
I greeted Mr. Wale the driver and turned only to find my sister smiling suspiciously,
"Idara, you are not trekking today?" She asked,
I pointed at the sun
"the sun is shining too much today and me, I don't want any sunburn again."
Mercy just laughed and said,
"my sister, when we were still attending our former school, we used to trek every day, even when the sun was shining more than this but now you are afraid of sunburn."
Coming from the girl who has not bother to not follow the car for a single day.
I glared at her "Now, you go out and trek, I think your mouth is running like typewriter, you too trek."
Mercy just laughed
"Idara, it is not like that, my one and only sister. Any other sister is a counterfeit."
This girl and her mouth, I laughed at that and we both continued our gist about all what has been happening and the excursion which was for only SS3 students.
Immediately Mr. Wale parked, we both stepped out and muttered a thank you sir to him as we entered our house.
My mum was seated in the sitting room with her phone plastered to her ear as she gave instructions to her employees. When she was done, she faced us,
"my two lovely children."
"good afternoon ma. "
we both muttered as we sat down on the soft and comfortable couch.
"How was school? hope you two are coping well, and Idara are you sure that you want to go to South Africa alone? "
My mum has started again.
She has been asking me that question since the first day I told her about it. She claimed that she can't let her first child enter an airplane by herself for the first time and all.
After another whole conversation of convincing her that I can go, I went to my room and lied on the bed, it didn't take long before I slept off.
.......................
It has been a week since the whole drama.
Like I promised myself I did not dare to talk to him but I still talked to Daniel and Ayo whenever they come to our seat. And the reason Ayo comes leaving Femi is still unknown to me.
Next Saturday was the excursion day and saying that was excited is an understatement.
We were currently in the physics lab and Mr. Smith, a white teacher who was our physics teacher was having an experiment.
Everyone was dressed in a white robe and was watching the experiment he was doing attentively.
When he was done, everything looked like magic. I was not really the one for practical I was more like a book person. Well thank God he gave us each the procedures.
"Everyone listen attentively, this experiment that I showed you all, will also be done by the whole class." Mr. Smith said in his British tone.
We all waited for him to continue and I, myself was already praying to God to let me remember half of the things he did and that stopped when I heard my name.
"Peters Idara and Femi Davies, you are a team. You all are to submit before Friday.
Have a good day " he said and left.
Which good day is this one? I thought to myself as I started packing my laptop and books. I was about to leave the class when I heard someone call me and not just someone it was ...................
Hi everyone hope the suspense is not too much and who do we think the person is.
Well lemme give you some teaser
"Hi Idara " , "hope it's not me you are talking to"
