Bright Future

Chapter 1: The First Start

"Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhh! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhh!! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhh!!!!"

"Oh s**t!‍" I screamed as my alarm woke me.

It was my first day at Bright Future Schools ‍, and I couldn't afford to start the first day as a late comer. You know they say first impression matters

Definitely, I couldn't afford such expensive school, if not for the scholarship exams I passed. And it would be a mess to be thrown out of the school due to inappropriate behavior.

For me Bright Future Schools ‍ was my fresh start...a fresh shot to a good life.

I could have woken up quite earlier if not for the henny I took last night on my birthday

I smiled on the thought of my birthday.

I looked at the side of my desk and smiled when I saw the Galaxy S10+ and Windows 10 HP laptop my uncle gifted me.

I know how hard he worked his ass off just to get me those gadgets so I wouldn't look like a misfit in my new school.

I lived in isuikwuato with my uncle Hosea who worked as a State security officer earning ₦500000 per month.

Hosea who is just 28 was the only sibling my dad had.

Things in my family are quite messed up.

My mom and dad divorced when Mom found out that dad was a cyber theft.

I used to live with my mom till she married her Spanish boss and they relocated to Spain.

I couldn't follow them because I didn't buy the idea of my mom being with someone else, other than my dad.

That was when my uncle Hosea took me in.

(Of course I couldn't stay with my dad either cuz I knew it was just a matter of time before his nemesis caught up with him).

I snapped out of my thoughts when my uncle Hosea screamed my name from the kitchen.

"Buchi! Buchi!! OnyeBuchi!!! Boy what the f**k you still doing in your room by this time!!! Don't you know you gonna be late for school?"

"I'm almost through Hosea" I screamed back.

I knelt down beside my bed and said some prayers before I went to the bathroom to have my bath.

I hurriedly wore my school uniform (a white short sleeve shirt, that looked brilliant on my 'chocolate-light skin'.

the shirt was further matched with a navy blue trousers and air Jordan canvas)

I dashed to the mirror to comb my thick black hair.

I stood 6ft infront of the mirror.

The lights in the room seemed to reflect on my brown pupils.

"Finally! " I smiled to myself as I noticed the barely visible moustache that were beginning to form at the top of my pink lips.

The one strand of beard at the base of my flat jaw didn't go unnoticed too.

..

I packed my books and laptop inside my bag, tucked my phone inside my pocket, grabbed my headset and hurried down to the kitchen to have breakfast.

After we were done eating, my uncle Hosea drove me to school in his Corolla car before he went to work

I stood just infront of the school gazing at the magnificent structure it had and the luxurious cars that dropped students thinking of how lucky I was to attend the school

.

Thank God my uncle didn't drop me infront of the school cuz his car would have embarrassed me.

Some of the students even drove their own cars, like: rolls Royces, G wagons, Porsche, Bentleys, 4 matics, Chevrolet etc.

I was brought to reality when a guy, a student of Bright Future schools‍ shaded me and we both crashed on the floor
