Rosa's Pov;
What the f**k does she want?.
I can't believe how stupid she is. I can't believe how stupid they all are.
They made my blood boil and I hesitated before picking up the call.
" Rosa!" her voice came up.
" Are you there? Are you okay?"
" What happened??" they all said into the phone almost simultaneously.
Oh!! They were together.
Maybe they decided to hang out for a while before going back home.
I wonder what they are going to tell their parents when they don't go to school for the next few weeks.
Well, that's none of my business.
" Why the f**K are you guys calling me? You dared mention my name to that principal, huh?" I snapped, raging with anger.
They are so stupid.
" What do you mean? Of course, we didn't want to" Maryam said in her sorry-ass tone.
" We didn't have a choice," Freda added.
" So I'm supposed to believe all this rubbish you guys are saying, right?" I lashed out at them.
" You guys couldn't even do a simple job. I wonder where you got your brains from? Stupid!!" I cussed and ended the call right away.
I started heading to class because there was nowhere else I could go.
I was so angry.
I can't go out of school because my movement and attendance will be strictly monitored from henceforth.
And it's even worse because Mom is involved.
I kinda have this feeling they - my so-called friend told the principal I had sneaked out of school.
I was just gonna act like a good kid for a few days.
Yes!! I thought and giggled happily, jumping to class.
I suddenly halted, bringing my joyful thought to an abrupt end.
The look on my face was that of horror and terror and I couldn't comprehend what was going on or about to happen.
What the...??!
Why is he standing there??!.
I gulped.

Meanwhile, Christy, Maryam, and Freda were sitting a few blocks away from school, wondering how to go home and what to tell their parents when they do.
It was from this place they called Rosa and they couldn't believe their eyes after she had insulted and hung up on them.
" I can't believe how she just hung up on us??" Maryam said in disbelief.
They were mad with rage.
" She's got to be kidding me. Does she realize it's because of her we are in this mess? We did that for her for crying out loud" Freda rants.
" Well, obviously we can't go to the principal or teacher and say that now. No one's gonna believe us, and even if they do, her Mom would surely sort it out and she wouldn't be affected in any way" Christy said, running her fingers in her messy bun.
" Gosh!! I should have just told Mr Charlie about it while I still had the chance. He seems to be the only one unfazed by her and her Mom's affluence. Goodness!" Maryam said with deep regret.
" Well, the deed has already been done and as usual she's free. All we have to do now is come up with things to say when we get home" Freda suggested.
" What do you mean?? What are you talking about?? There's no way I'm gonna let my mom know I was suspended. That would surely break her heart" Christy cried out.
" Then you should have backed out from this onset, but no, you were too obsessed with the money you would get from her" Maryam snapped at her.
" Eish!! That's not what we are supposed to be talking about now, and of course, there's no way we are gonna tell our parents about this. I don't know about you girls, but I know my Dad would be so heartbroken. I know what he went through to get me into this school" Freda said on the verge of tears.
The trio went on and on and finally came up with something to say when they get home, with a promise in their heart to get back at Rosa for ditching them after using them.
Now they were paying for it and she was living her life freely.
It was surely not gonna be easy.

Sasha was in the car with Mrs Browns, and was briefing her about the incident in Rosa's school and how it went.
" Ahh! This child won't kill me" Mrs Browns lamented bitterly.
" Hopefully, I was able to resolve it and I also spoke to one of the teachers"
" The one you told me about?"
" Yeah, the one I told you about," Sasha replied.
" Did he agree to meet?" Mrs Browns asked.
" No, but we could still go to the school later if you are still interested in seeing him," she suggested.
" Yeah, sure. Let's do that" Mrs Browns said tiredly, relaxing her back.
" But is there any need, ma? He was in full support of the detention and extra moral classes and that has made the Principal put him in charge of it" Sasha explained.
" That's the reason I should see him and speak with him. You know Rosa, Sasha; I believe you know her more than me and know how mischievous she can be" Mrs Browns explained to Sasha.
" Enough about that. What other things do I need to attend to?".
" Oh!! Uhm, you have a meeting with the president and then the conference you were invited to...".
" Cancel the conference and book me a nice restaurant with the president".
" He already did that. Only asked that you go meet him there".
" Good. Let's go, then after that, we head to Rosa's school to see that teacher" Mrs Browns said and Sasha directed the driver to the restaurant.
Mrs Browns was escorted in by Sasha and two bodyguards.
She didn't want to draw a lot of crowds and had to wear an outfit that would make people not recognize her that easily.
"Good day, sir!" She greeted the president when she entered and Sasha left right away.
" And who do we have here?" Mr President asked, laughing out loud as they exchanged friendly greetings with hugs.
" I suppose everything is great??" he asked her and she nodded.
Just immediately, he walked in.
The last person she expected to see in a place like this.
She was dumbstruck as she stared at him with furrowed brows, wondering what was going on.
What exactly is going on??.
