Chapter 3
607 Words
I was relieved.After a moment of silence,I heard one of the twins scream ,then the other one too.They screamed after seeing my ears.They ran away from the seats towards the driver and before he could stop the bus,they both fell on the window but they did not get hurt.The driver wanted to know what was happening and as he looked back , he saw my ears.Did he not not faint? right on the stirring wheel and everyone ran at the back screaming their lungs out,frightened.I was told to get off the bus and without hesitation,I got off.I took a taxi to school.This time it was different because it reminded me of the first time i took a school bus. Children laughed and threw food at me and some were in tears.I stopped taking the school bus after two bullies called me a witch,but my grandmother stood up for me and she would sit with me in the school bus and if anyone wanted to mess with me,they had to go through her first.She helped me gain my confidence.I took the taxi with my beanie on my head covering the ears that God saw suitable for me but not normal to human nature.
I did not cry, I did not scream or scratch anything instead i was calm as ever.i reached school earlier than those kids on the bus and i headed to the security's office and ask for the school map.I did not hesitate. I did not ask directions from anyone.i guess my feet carried me there without me noticing I guess it was my guts. The security guard did not treat me any weird or nasty because I hid my ears.I got the school map and went straight to the school hall using it because the dean is about to welcome new learners.The school was fine,not something I am not used to except its population.Indeed I went to hall and found learners already waiting they looked like seniors.i isolated myself,took a sit and checked out my comic book while while waiting for the dean. The school bell rang and the hall got filled within seconds.Some looked like dolls,some looked like rappers and some looked possessed with their obsession with black, ugh look at me judging.No wonder there are pupils full of themselves,some are bullied, some suffer from peer pressure and ridiculed and i am out here not caring about anything and living my own life.
"My fellow Centralians,welcome to the most prestigious schools in town.Yes,You must have probably heard of me.I am the glam beauty also known as the dean.I own this big school(giggles).Oh,I am sorry for gloating.Welcome!as we are about to embark on a journey our studies which produces a 100% pass rate in each grade and we aim to maintain it.I am your dean,I own you".I could not believe my eyes.That was my first time seeing a drop dead gorgeous dean, a whole model?Please wake me up because i mean deans are known to be rude,nasty and not to be messed with.You can tell with the way they walk that they do not tolerate trouble but here,I guess there are more peagant shows than sports.As I was battling with my thoughts,it kind of make me forget about the bad morning I had."Before we could close up,let us share the rules that every individual in here feel that they are suitable for the school's growth and reputation,I will start.No nail polish,no nails,no revealing clothes and boys i am not your friend ...so any suggestions?"."No late coming,no picking up on other children,yes no bullying".Voices came out from the back and some were not clear enough though.
