"This girl is so funny, I'll get to know her better, I think I'm interested in her but she proves stubborn just now". Dozie said and looked at the back, he saw Aneesha smiling and her dimples were very deep. "Bingo.......wow, she's really charming looking at her from afar......". He hardly finished his statement when. someone tapped his shoulder. "Hey". said the girl. Immediately, Dozie looked at her side. "Yes what's the matter". He asked look at the familiar face. "Hmm, I'm Alice, nice meeting you". She said stretching her hand forward for a shake. "Oh, I knew the face was familiar, I'm 'Dozie' they both chorused at the same time.
Dozie returned the hand shake and said "Excuse me please". He ran towards the office and went directly to the principal's office.He met a lot of people in the principal's and then turned back.While he was going, he saw many student trooping in and out of the office. He went back to his class, while going inside, Aneesha was going out of the class.
" Let me cause some trouble " He said smiling, he knew she was coming and he made up his mind to step on her toes. "Ouch". She cried. " You saw me coming didn't you? you like defying people". She shouted angrily, "You also saw me coming didn't you? you wanted to cause trouble that's why". Dozie said smiling at her. "You son of a b***h". she said more angrily. " Huh, what did you just say". He said facing one of his ear towards her mouth. "I said what you heard". She said walking away.
He dragged her back by her hand and said, "Neat time, don't ever say what you just said or else......".He said pointing his second finger at her. "Or else what, what can you do? you can only nag, shout and rant". She said. "f**k your ass". He shouted back at her.
He walked to his seat, he heard a hoarse voice which said to him " What you did was intentional, isn't it? I saw you saying to your self that you wanted to cause trouble. Must you cross her path? He looked at the side where the voice was coming from "What's your business ". He said placing his head on the table.

After the bell had been jingled for the seventh period, their class teacher entered for English language. All the students stood up and greeted her in unison while she responded and told them to have their seat. "Hmm, she cleared her throat, "I hope you've all gotten your series? she asked them and they all chorused "Yes". " Okay Dozie, had Anisha showed you around? Miss Mary asked. " ooh ooh, yeah we go". Dozie said to himself.
She stood up sluggishly and said "No". "Why, Dozie didn't you go to her? she asked. " I went to meet her but she said she had no time for that" He said lying. " Aneesha is that true? the teacher asked. " No he is lying, I went to him first and he said he was busy and I told him I'm also busy that I can create time for him, and then he gave me a reply that I should leave him alone, he came back to me and asked if the both of us can go but I was too busy to do that". She said rolling her eyes.
Miss Mary didn't say a word and then walked out of the class.
She came in with the head of department [HOD] " Aneesha, why didn't you do what miss Mary told you to do". The HOD said walking towards Aneesha's seat. " I did it ma, but the boy had been rude. I went to meet him and he said he was busy. I told him that I was also busy that I could create time for him. But he told me to go. After all I can't force him. We can take a horse to the river but we can't force it to drink water". She said rolling her little eyeball. "Are you rolling your eyes at me? The HOD queried. No ma, it's Dozie he's gazing at me. She said looking at Dozie.
"Did I finally put this innocent girl in trouble? oh I've made a big mistake" Dozie thought within himself. " Dozie, don't worry you'll get to know this school better after sometimes, and also are you coping with the teachings, student environment you know? the HOD said. " Yes ma Dozie said smiling at himself.
After the period was over, miss Mary moved out of their class. " Aneesha, I'm sorry". Dozie said with a pleading eyes, he stood up and walked up to Aneesha's seat.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to put you in trouble". He said be ding down to meet Aneesha's height while she was on her sit. "It's okay but, you lied and next time don't try to be rude". She said, reading a novel. "Rude? he asked " Yes you behave rudely sometimes, even at all times, she said looking at him.
" Okay, I've heard you". He said smiling at her, then she also smiled back."Wow, I love your dimples, it makes your face good when you smile" Dozie told her". "My dimples, she saw d touching her cheek. "Yeah and can......" the bell was jingled for closing time.
" Oops, I have to be on my way now "He said standing up. " Ouch, my leg". He cried. Sorry, it's because you've been squatting for long". Aneesha said.
Dozie carried his bag and went out of the school while walking, he said. " This school is awesome, I think I love it, it's wide, gigantic, it has standard lab and so on". He said to himself.
