THE GOOD HEART EPISODE 3

At the staff room i was just stealing glances at Joshua, but mhen, guy dey vex.

He no even send me and e turn back pain me.... Me sef no sabi why e come concern me when that was what I wanted.

A student came to inform me about a class and I took my bag and left, this time I left the staff room sluggishly because I'm not really good in the subject I was about to teach. Joshua was my saviour but guy no even look my face.

I went to the class and taught the rubbish I could. Any student who asked question I turned it into general assignment for the class... I can't kill myself na.

I carried myself to the staff room with vexation as one annoying student..... One of the brightest laughed in class. Probably he knew I didn't know anything with all the questions they threw on me, maybe it was so obvious.

I sat on my desk and threw one glance at Joshua and saw he was preparing to attend to a class.

I missed the way he do ask where i got difficulties and how he will try to help. But guy just carry his envelope and left the staff room and I breathed out and picked my lesson notes.

I don't know if i was reading that book at all when a strong scent walked into the staff room and i heard hailing from the teachers there before i could raise my head.

Susan was the social and friendly one there, the teachers liked her more and I looked as she lackadaisically walked shaking their hands and came to me last.

"How do I look? Susan asked turning round and i shook my head and faced my book not replying her.

"Shuoooo! Which kind bad belle be this na? A teacher annoyingly asked.

"No don't bother I'm used to her, Susan said smiling and sat on my desk.

"That one wey dey mourn her boyfriend, another said and i raised my head from the book.

"Boyfriend? Now now now wey i comot? Susan asked.

"Joshua o, she just dey tie tie face anyhow, the first teacher said and i gave a loud hiss.

"Can you do without gossiping? I asked them.

"Say you too important for person to gossip? Another asked and I hissed.

"Calm down o no be fight. Babe can I see you outside? Susan asked and left first while I followed to where the car was.

"Any problem? You don't look well, Susan asked.

"Like you care, I replied.

"Stop this na, I'm still your friend o, Susan said.

"I hear, any way I'm good nothing's wrong, i replied.

"Okay, But what's Joshua thing I'm hearing? She asked.

"How can i date Joshua na? How is that even possible? I asked back.

"Ahhhhh Amanda why is it not possible? Minus money aspect, the guy is good you sef sabi and At least Joshua get cash na, he get business wey he dey join with this one, Susan said and i folded my arms to look at her.

"See eh, i knew Joshua was interested in you with the way he do look at you, girl go for him he's good, Susan continued and i smirked.

"Susan I'm not you o that go for guys because of the money, i know what i want and that is a God fearing guy, I said.

"So Joshua na Satan dey fear am? I no even understand this your God fearing status sef. Na matured and reasonable guys wey no dey drink, club or smoke dey meet you but they no be God fearing standard. I remember Chinedu for our place turn altar boy for your sake still he is not God fearing, babe what do you want? Susan asked and i smiled and shook my head.

"Susan wait o, so because you don wear ring with strong perfume you are now advising me on top wetin i want ba? I asked.

"Na wetin you dey talk so ba? Susan asked.

"Susan leave me o, i get my taste and i know what i want and God who sees my heart will give me my heart desire, i replied and Susan hands up.

"Sorry ma o I'm only concerned that's all, Susan said.

"Thank you, can i go now? I asked but she was quiet looking at me and I returned back to the staff room.

Hearing the bell I hanged my already packed bag and left the staff room first but Joshua confronted me at the gate.

"What is it? I asked him.

"What did i do to you?Is it because I said i like you? Okay I'm sorry i take it back, lets be friends please, Joshua said and i was weak......
