"May wake up" well I thought getting an alarm would stop Ash from waking me up " The results are out" i immediately opened my eyes
" huh, did I pass, sorry good morning"
" good morning, it's 10 already, I don't know you to wake this late"
" oh ya, same, maybe I overworked my brain yesterday or something"
" oh no p, just thought to wake you up in case you're dead" she said laughing
" ya sure thing, did I pass"
" urh, I haven't checked, i think it was posted or something, let's go check"
" ya, lemme freshen up"
" sure"
........
" wow, I got in"
" ha were you doubting yourself, you're intelligent"
" ya ya"
" hey newbie, seems like you got in" the Karens are here, urh, they should get a life
" hey Karen"
" urh the names not Karen, newbie"
" and the name isn't newbie, Karen"
" look if you don't shut up, we'd literally throw you out of this school"
" urh, repeat your self" Ash said
" oh look who we have here, Ashley, didn't see you"
" well obviously, we all know you're blind"
" you bit..."
" dare you to finish that word" I said
" you think being backed by Ashley would stop me from dealing with you, hon, you gat it all wrong"
" Karen, I don't want your problem, honestly, I just wanna study, but if you wanna f**k with me then honey, get ready for all the comebacks you'll get" I grabbed Ash and we left
" Wait May was that you, you know you said yesterday that, you met them, I thought it was, you know, not this"
" was it too much"
" urh duh, nope, you need to stand up for yourself and I loved it"
" urh thanks "
" also the guys are here we have to go pick them"
" urh, pick them"
" ya like greet them, that's what I meant "
" okay, outside"
" naa in their dooms, it's like separate, from the rest, blah blah, you'll see"
" okay"
...
" hey big head, how are you doing " Ash greeted her brother
" urh, what's wrong with you and stupid nicknames, hey May "
" oh hey, hey Bruno, Leonardo " I greeted all, Leo was looking at me as though I have two heads
" Hey " all said
" Anyways when did you guys arrive, you seem all settled" Ash asked
" oh not too long ago, May did you pass the exams" Bruno asked
" urh duh, are you asking, our May here is very intelligent, she's among the 10 students that passed, the rest has been trashed "
" Ash that's harsh" I said
" oh sorry " na, she didn't mean it
" well anyways since you guys don't need help how about we go get something to eat besides it's lunch time, and students ain't much yet, so they'll probably serve pizza so something else" Ash suggested
" ya sure let's go" Bruno said
They were just tryna keep the environment lively, cause the air was thick
We reached the cafe ,wow it's beautiful
" yes it is" Leo said next to me
" was I loud"
" ya you were, but only me heard you" he said
" ya about the other day.."
" I was wrong,I shouldn't have paid,with you asking me to do so" he said
" ya, I was a bit harsh too,for that I'm sorry " ya I apologized, I thought about it, besides who says no to free things
" urh, wow are you guys done, we need to get some food" I heard Ash say
" ya"
We go some food, ya they gave us a box of pizza
" hey Leo" I heard a high pitched voice, sigh the Karens are here
" you have some nervous coming here" I heard Ash said I'm literally sitting in-between Ash and Leo since I didn't want to sit between she and Bruno, this would be hard
" hey Ash, hey newbie" she said " hey Antonio, hey Bruno" she completed, like i said this would be hard
" Karen can you please leave from here,you ain't wanted" Ash said, she's being dangerously
" Leo.."
" didn't you hear her" Bruno spoke up
" well I ain't here for you guys "
" Bella"
" Yes Leo" she purred, uh I almost threw up
" leave"
" uh, really, hmph, so rude" she said and left
" Like for real Leonardo why are you still with that girl, like really" finally I hear Antonio speak, he rarely speaks
" I'm not with her" Leo said
" Really, well if you were not really with her she won't be disturbing us all the time, you know"
" Guys for real, we aren't together no more" oh they were once together, great discovery, I picked up my cinnamon tea and drank siped it, this is interesting, well they went on and on, maybe i should just step in
" Urh what if he ain't with her, besides he wouldn't have told her to leave if they were together" I said
" Look May, it not a normal thing he tells her to leave the later on he goes to her and f***s her then she'll come back here and rub it on our face as though she's proving a point" Ash said " look I really don't care who you're with, but the insults are enough for me, trust me if your bitchy slut comes here next time to act a scene I'll show her how ugly her face can get with just a punch" Ash concluded, then walked away, Bruno followed her, maybe i should give them some time, but then Antonio left too, now it's awkward, i stood up ready to leave but he stopped me
" May"
" ya"
" are you free for a walk"
Sigh, this is stressful " ya sure"
......
" it's peaceful " I said, we're in. the other side of the school, the horticultural area, the flowers are beautiful
" not much people are here " I said
" ya, turns out rich people don't like to waste their time on flowers "
" you're rich too you know "
" ha, that's true" we fell into silence again
" Back home what's it like, Ash mentioned that you're from, Nigeria "
" ya, I am a Nigerian, back home is good, good food, good culture, lots of juju..."
" what's j..ju..ju" he asked making me laugh" what's funny "
" no nothing, just the way you pronounce it, it's Juju, and it means witchcraft "
" ohh juju" he said
" ya"
" isn't that bad"
" well it's is bad, but then it's everywhere isn't it, it's not like we're the only ones that practice it"
" oh, what do you like about your country then"
" Well, entertainment is free" I said laughing
" how, you don't pay for Netflix and the rest "
" of course we do, what I mean is, the amount of news that rises up in a day is enough entertainment for you, some might be sad, some funny, some are even useless, but then the most important thing it that we're happy people, the we hustle everyday to meet ends need"
" wow, that's interesting, and your parents "
" I'm an orphan "
" Oh sorry "
" no need, the orphanage was my school, taught me a look of things that normal orphanage won't teach, so ya"
" oh "
" what about you, Mr"
" what do you wanna know"
" well what was your childhood like"
" I didn't have one, it was filled with guns, blood and death" he said
" wow that's cool" he turned and looked at me surprised " what wrong"
" well others usually take pity on me and all that"
" ohh, well, everything we face is meant to make us strong, if not it isn't life, and also I love guns, so Yap, cool"
" hm, I like you" he said casually
" Good, you'll change your mind soon, enough"
.......
Leo walked me back to the dorm and bid me good bye
" Hey Ash, where's Bruno"
" hey, you're back, Bruno left a few minutes ago"
" okay, urh, wanna talk about what happened"
" When I was little, my family and that of Bella's were good, but then, Bella was jealous of me, constantly bullying me, cause i was born fragile, i am sickle celled, but then Antonio was born strong so he would try to fight them but he was little then, one day, there was a party, i felt sick of it so i went to the garden, to breath some fresh air, then Bella came out holding a pocket knife she said my dress was too good for my skin and it lacks color, so she held me down and did this" she showed me a scar on her upper back
" oh Ash, I'm so so sorry " I said then hugged her
" no p, it's in the past now, I shouted so somehow the Bruno and Leonardo heard me, and they helped me, I was in a coma for a month before the shock, but then the matter was settled in a meeting, we cut all ties with them, so now that Leonardo has been f*****g that b***h for a year now, is painful, but it's his decision, i don't care anymore "
" it's okay Ash, promise I'll protect you from that insect next time"
" hm, I believe you, you're my life saver"
