Chapter 3
"Just two more questions and I'm outta here" I thought as I was finishing up my Maths classwork. We have the most laziest Maths teacher in the world. He just gives us notes, classwork and no explanation and when he does, it's like he's talking to the board. And worse of all, he has a bad temper.
"You, go back to your seat." He shouted at Ajibola who was standing up.
"In fact, bring your work here." He shouted at Ajibola, the guy is the type of person to 'change it' for teachers.
"Sir, I'm done." Ajibolae said, sounding irritated.
"Just bring it." Our teacher kept on insisting.
The bell saved him. Immediately our teacher heard the bell, he left and told Ajibola to take the books. He totally forget about him when he has food waiting for him in his staffroom untouched.
......
"Ayo, come here." Tolu called out my name and patted on a chair by her side.
I was carrying my tray of food and I walked over to her table. Folarin was there of course, he was Tolu's puppy. So was his friend, Toba. I talk to him once in a while too. He's as little bit taller than I am. Brown coloured skin, and a very nice smile (sorry, I don't look at noses that much).
So was Tolu's half caste cousin, Lara. I just like her tanned skin, brown eyes and curly hair that she doesn't like to braid. She's the perfect example of the brown skinned girl Beyonce sang about.
Then we have Tolu's best friend, Shayo. She's short,very light in complexion cause her mom is an Igbo woman and she very curvy on both sides and pink full lips.
Now, why was I here again?
Tolu answered the question I had in mind.
"I'm having a party Friday!" She said.
"I'm in" said one of the guys and they started talking about it.
Tolu and her sister, Temi always have huge parties and the whole school likes attending them. But why on Earth will you throw a party when we just resumed?
"Ayo, I was thinking you would come with us." Tolu looked at me with hope in her eyes.
" I don't know, I'll think about it". I shrugged. But I am not promising.
"Great." she kept on smiling like I had told her yes already.
While everyone was engrossed in their conversation. I finished my food and
started staring at them, now that reminds of a WhatsApp sticker.
Stares remally...
I laughed at my own silly self not laughing to whatever they were talking about, probably about an artiste.
........
"Ayo!!"
"Please don't finish my name oo." I replied the person who was shouting my name like a hawker on the streets.
The person barged into my room.
"I'm going!!" Ire squealed with excitement.
Yes, he is the Ayo hawker. He started dancing and I looked at his display of madness.
"I'm going to Temi's party, are you?" He finished his statement and asked me.
"I don't know sef." I answered him before putting away my assignment.
"Why, Tolu invited you naw?" He raised his eyebrows.
"But I don't feel like going" I snapped, I didn't mean to but my insecurities were kicking in.
"Okay" he said. I could see the concern in his eyes but I didn't want his self pity.
"I'm sorry for talking to you like that." I sighed.
"It's okay sis." He rubbed my hand gently and smiled, understanding my concern.
"But what about mommy?" I asked him.
"There is something called sneaking out?" He said in a "duhh" tone.
"Are you seriously gonna sneak out!!" Now I knew my eyes had grown as big as saucers.
"Shut up...no" he said half smiling.
"Maybe." he said stroking his chin like a villian.
"May that beard you pray for come to pass in Jesus name." I said in a whisper.
"Amen" he screamed while I just shook my head.
"IRE!!!"
"AYO!!"
"Go and sleep NOW!"
The drama queen of my brother disturbed my mom. We just finished praying and now my mom wants to just sleep. I wonder how she was able to shout like that.
"But mummy". Ire whined.
They was no answer only the flick of her light switch.
"Anyways, what should I wear? OMG". He said squealing like a fangirl while I stared at him.
"And you said you hate Dork diaries like that?" I said looking at him like shit.
"That doesn't stop me from acting like them." He stuck his tongue out at me in defeat.
"Iremide, goodnight." I faked a yawn.
"So ya saying I'm boring." he said with his hands to his chest in a mock hurt way.
"Sure, let's take that as a good excuse to sleep now" I said and smiled mischievously.
I climbed up on my bed which his big body had collapsed on me.
"You're fat Ire!" I groaned while poking him to get up.
"Stand up." I urged him.
"Say the magic words" he said in a sing song.
"Did I beg you to climb on my bed ni?" I stated.
"Wrong, try again" he continued singing.
"Please the most wonderful brother in the world." I started sweetly. His head is swelling, I thought.
"Get your big ass off my bed!" I whisper shouted.
"Jesus." He said and got off the bed. Finally.
"Thanks sweetie" I blew him a kiss.
"Shoir. I don't want your kiss"
"I take it back nigbayen, bye bye" I scoffed.
"I love you too." He sang again before leaving my room.
