It took a day for Janet and Ada to conclude what her punishment would be, the girl's name was Busola, she was one of the girls that thought she had made it in life because the likes of Subomi and other guys in their set stooped down to her level to toast her. Immediately Janet had arrived at school, her and Ada went on a search for Busola. They knew she wouldn't skip school because they had threatened to report to the principal if they didn't sight her first thing in the morning.
"Did she go and steal her moms' own, abi what?" Ada asked a laughing Janet, adjusting her shorts so they were resting on her flawless thigh's. Today happened to be sport's day. A day when girls in their school anticipated, so they could show off how seductive they looked in their tight blue shorts. It got so bad that the school had to give out tracksuits to cover it up but that didn't stop them. Of course it didn't.
Ada's shorts were reaching her mid thigh, which looked nonexistent when she pu
Janet was frozen in the spot.Scared?Shocked?She didn't know which. Kareem had her against the wall, his hands gripped on her wrist so hard that she had to squeal. Why did he suddenly get so pissed off at her? Kareem grimaced, narrowing his eyes at how pathetically scared she looked, with Adebola at his back, Janet's eyes wide; but Adebola did nothing, she just put her head down."Listen up."Kareem muttered in annoyance."Stay out of my way, or you'll regret it."Kilodé? What was this guys own? So Adebola was now his 'way' or what. This guy was a joker. They stayed that way, Janet putting up her best tough face even though she almost pissed her pants."Guy, leave my hand oh." Janet spat at him, ignoring how much her mind told her not to put up a fight. She knew Kareem wasn't one to be messed with, but she wasn't going to let that stop her."Which one is I'll regret it sef?" Janet continued, hissing at him
You know that feeling when you're meant to stop someone from punching a person that clearly deserves it? Then you wait for just a minute so they'd feel the pain.That was the spot Janet was in.She waited, letting Derek punch Kareem. Over and over, to her; it was one of the most exciting things to see; it definitely topped any film trick action movie she had watched in the cinema.After a while, she decided to speak up, well that was what she had said to herself but she knew it was because people were beginning to gather near the tree. All thanks to the screams of Kareem.What a wimp."Derek stop!" Janet finally spoke up, after Kareem stopped screaming. Whispers surrounded them, students watched in horror."Heh!! Damilayo, you want to kill him?!" Mr Wesley yelled dramatically as Obinna ran and pulled a fuming Derek off Kareem. The boys seemed unfazed by his behavior, like it happened often."Guy, haba now." Ope said throug
The day had come and gone and the next day had already started, people were still talking about the whole incident. New versions of the story had even emerged. One was that Derek had blinded Kareem's left eye, the next was that Kareem was sleeping with Adaobi. Janet couldn't even keep up with the rumors anymore. She couldn't help but giggle at how stupid they were being.But her lips arched into a deep frown when she recalled how Dotun had interrupted her and Derek's conversation. She was just getting to know more about him! Then Dotun just had to arrive with her stupid big breast to rest his head on when they hugged, ugh! She was fuming. After Janet saw that yesterday, she just got up and left them alone; rolling her eyes as she slammed the door.Petty? Yeah, she was aware of that.What did lighten her mood when she got home was that there was a text from Derek. Right? He actually message her again, when she read it, her mood was lifted for the whole day.
Janet let her eyes bulge out, her mouth practically dropped open at his confession. Was he pulling her leg? Was he serious? Janet had no idea, she just watched him, amazed at what he had said. After what seemed like minutes of watching his straight face, she looked down, her lips forming a thin line.She was jealous.She knew Kareem's sister, she was a year below them. How on earth did they interact well enough for them to do it?! Janet's mind was in a frenzy."Say something." He proceeded, letting go off his vape as he adjusted himself on the floor, placing his chin on one of his hands. He just stared at her, his eyes boring into hers.What did he expect her to say?"I, I don't know what to say..." Were the words she uttered from her mouth, her hands playing with the hem of her skirt."Pfft."Janet looked up, confused. The sound came from Derek, his lips curling up into a grin, then he burst out laughing. His head went ba
Janet was speechless, her mouth hung low; did she just get swatted across the face like a fly? She didn't even know what to say or do, she just stared at Adebola. The girl who was still frowning at her, but she could see the mocking tilt of her lips.She slapped me. Janet said in her mind, almost not believing it. Then it clicked to her, that good for nothing boy crazy girl had just slapped her!Janet didn't even know that she could attack the way she did, she didn't care if this would ruin her head girl status, she saw red. Even her mother didn't slap her on the face! With a jump, she had the shocked girl on the tiles, pinning her down with both hands, her shoulders still having a slight pain from before."You threw me to the ground that day, I left you. Then you call me here to slap me...me! You dey mad?" Janet emphasized, watching as the skinny girl pathetically squealed, throwing her hands in the air, she managed the get a grip on Janet's plaited fring
"Don't you think you're overreacting? I mean he actually came to ask and you just brushed him off."This came from Juliet, they were both on her bed with Janet in the corner of her room, she had her head down on her knees. She felt really bad, especially when she was leaving and bumped into him. He was talking with Dotun, which just made her shoulders tense up.When he'd seen her, he just lazily waved and walked away, what bothered her was that Dotun laughed in her face as she skipped and practically jumped on Derek. It felt like she was mocking her, of course she was, she had ruined it...again."You know, I think she was lying. Call him and ask.""Call him? Are you crazy?" Janet laughed out, getting to her feet as she plumped against her bed. Letting out a loud groan, how could she even muster up the guts to call him after ignoring him."Or I will." Juliet warned, but Janet didn't take her seriously, she just scoffed. "Go ahead." She
"Come." Derek tapped the space beside him, with a quick nod, she pressed her butt against the hot wood; almost hissing at the feeling."It's hot." She said, making him chuckle, when her body got used to the heat, she face him with a smile. "Do you live here?" She asked, wanting to know more about him. Derek just shook his head, turning so his legs were on each side of the bench and he could face her properly."I asked first. This doesn't look like a place you'd come to."He explained, his eyes trained on her. Janet noticed that he had this look on his face, and his lips slightly parted, his eyes wandering. Like he was trying not to look somewhere.She copied his movement, slowly putting her second leg over the bench, wanting to appear seductive. "I was just hanging out with Shalom. My house is not too far from here sha." She shrugged, purposely giving him more information than needed."So I can just come by abi?" He joked as she giggled at him,
A few days had gone by after Derek and Janet's little hangout, she still cheesed at how he reacted to her flirty attempts which were definitely not in vain. After they had gone back to Shalom and Sammy, Janet had to run back home because it was already getting late and her mom kept calling her.A whole week had gone by after that, Derek and Janet had chances to talk but guess who came in to ruin it...You guessed it, Dotun.But it want only Dotun, Jagun came to join the bandwagon.Fate might have had it in for her, even though she was now friends with Derek— or acquaintances? Janet still hadn't stopped her often gazes at him during class, in fact; it had increased.Not that she was a stalker or whatever. He was just interesting to observe.Some people had decided to grow a pair and actually talk with him, people like Subomi.Before she knew it, her dreaded week came; no not her period, rather it was the week of inter house sport practic
