2 Year 6

New girl, a new friend

I passed on to the next class with a girl I never liked, no, not who you are thinking of, a new student, Ahji, she is the free-spirited girl, every girl would hope to become, her flawless skin and her dark brown pupils combined with ebony black hair made her look like a goddess right out of a fantasy. But why didn't I like her?

Ever heard of how beautiful Athena is, what of how crafty she was and relentless. Yup, that was how she was, she was a trouble maker, academically she's average and that gave me a leg, I would say that was what made me look better than her, we had one thing in common though, we both disliked our teacher.

One morning an argument broke out between both of us and I was really mad one thing led to another and I bit her, I couldn't believe myself, who was I becoming?, the person I knew was long gone. All I was sure of was I was no longer my gentle self, therefore, I made up my mind from that day that I'll try not to fight with her again.

Time flew by quickly and we soon became intimate friends, it felt like we could never be separated, we didn't cause mischief but when we did, it was huge. One time was when we went to our Sophester's class to greet our friend who was once our mate, his new classmate then shouted and us and guess what we did. We went to report to ... not our class teacher but the director. He told the staff God knows what and the wicked teacher came to meet us again she asked" why did we go and tell Director such a trivial matter and not her ?", we both gulped but refused to answer, the truth was, deep down we were scared of her. She left after not getting a reply but in the end, we were apologized to. Finally😋, a result of teamwork.

At the end of the year, I graduated with straight A's and I was over the moon, it was something I would never forget, soon enough we graduated primary school and soon moved to high school.

Now in high school, we had some younger students who skipped a class join us, I was also going to jump a class but the school never allowed me, I don't hold it to heart but I do recollect. We also had two new students who are family friends but well, they don't exactly get along well, and if they did, well it doesn't show anymore, what is my business anyway, I decide to befriend both of them, one is a guy and the other is a girl, it was easy to befriend the girl as we soon started moving together, Ahji, on the other hand, noticed it and wasn't happy about it, but I didn't care, I asked myself if I was doing anything wrong but I later concluded that I and Ahji only became friends because we had no other person to talk to, I didn't tell her this though, I kept it to myself.

The new girl; Kara was a very beautiful girl, she had puffy cheeks and big eyes. Her pink cherry lips could be spotted miles away, one attractive feature was her unique smile, it always got people talking, but that's not why I became her friend though I just wanted someone I could sync with which I realize later is difficult to find. How?

Some people say beauty attracts trouble, I have no say on that, all I knew was that THIS beauty attracted trouble. Soon enough one of my Sophester began to fall for her, she initially admitted that she liked him and weirdly she told Ahji too. Nothing happened in the first term but who knew trouble was not far.

The second term began and I and Ahji started talking again while talking she said she wrote some letters for those who liked each other, I only laughed about it, I thought " such a bad girl, but why not" I said I'd help her share the letters and so I did.

The next day we were both called, not knowing to us, our trouble had arrived, our Sophester saw the letter during class and the teacher saw it, he reported immediately to the wicked teacher who was promoted to the new school head and chaos was happy. On getting out, the teacher asked what I was thinking, not Ahji but me, she also blamed me for instructing Ahji to write the letters, and soon the teachers around the school heard about it and were looking at me with THOSE EYES, I was humiliated😫, it was the first time in my life I said these words "Had I known", I was also reported to my mum and I told her my side of the story, weirdly she comforted me and told me never to allow people to use me again. I was really happy she didn't shout at me else I'd have been really sad, I kept to myself in school for a while but that wasn't enough, any incidence that involved love letters that year, I was always called and constantly reminded that I was the cause of all the nonsense.

I decided to stay away from Kara as she didn't like owning up to her faults and also from Ahji who was a frequent trouble maker. This saved me from a lot of trouble and I graduated safely to the next class. I thought I had escaped from whatever trouble there could be but little did I know that this was just the beginning.😪

😥

See ya,

love ya.
