The drive to school felt unusually long. I couldn't stop thinking about everything that had happened the previous night. To distract myself, I pulled out my phone and began scrolling through social media. A message suddenly popped up. It was from Ella. "Girl, where are you? The lecture is about to begin, and you know how Mr. Nifemi gets when people arrive after him." I looked at the time. I was late. "Please hurry," I told the driver. "I don't want to miss the lecture." Luckily, I reached the lecture hall one minute before the lecturer arrived. I rushed inside and took the seat Ella had saved for me. The lecture dragged on. Halfway through the class... Something hit my shoulder. It was a folded piece of paper. I quickly looked around, hoping to see who had thrown it. No on
