Nana's POV.

It's really been a long tiring week.
Today is Friday and we are all wearing our games wears.
Our inter_ house competitions started on Tuesday and will be ending today.
I can't wait for today to be over cause I'm Soo tired.
Mrs Anita my house mistress had made me participate in basketball, handball and made me the queen for  red house  marching parade.
Yeah I'm a big fan of red.... so, I chose red house and arrgh I regretted it as soon as I realized that Cassandra was in the same house.
That girl would not let me have my peace and yeah she is always getting on my nerves.

We were all in our classes cause today's competition was going to start by 10:00am.
Junior students were running up and down the school compound.
Senior students were also outside the classroom with some chattering and laughing like there was no tommorow.
Almost half of the chairs and desks in my class were outside the classroom same with other classes.
We were not having any serious lessons so, students decided to stay outside the classrooms.

Today, I wasn't in the mood for making noice coupled with the fact that my boss annoyed me this morning just before we came to school.
For some reason,he tries to find everything possible to upset me ever since he returned from that trip.
He finds fault in almost everything I do.
I wonder why someone will be changing attitude like weather.
Today he is sweet, tomorrow he is bitter...... anyways that's his problem.

I get tired of staring out of the window,then I put my head on the desk and I begin to wonder away not untill Annabelle comes running into the class.

I glare at her before asking
Madam what is it?
We have a test she replied.
What test?I asked.
Literature
She replied.
I thought we wrote test last week?I ask her
Yes oooo don't mind that man he doesn't want to see somebody resting in peace every time test test test mcchew she hissed.

I was passing by the admin block when I heard him telling Mrs Serah that he is going to give us another test because most of us passed the one we wrote last week....he thinks we cheated.
I also heard him say the questions are coming from that novel what's the name.........errr.............
Faceless.
Yes faceless.
Ohhhh he knows that most of us haven't read that book.
I can't find my own novel sef.
I don't even know what the story is all about chai Nana please brief me na she pleaded.

I look at her from head to toe before I start laughing.

Now what's funny?
She asked with an annoyed look.

Aunty calm down joor ah.... you want to have hypertension just because of one small literature test.
Shey when they included those novels in your textbooks they told you to keep it in your bag for decoration ehh,I boasted into another laughter.

Nana stop laughing this is not funny.
Just summarize the book for me if you have read it please.

Okay news flash.....I haven't read it I tell her.

She drops her bag and sits next to me with tears beginning to form in her eyes.
Now what are we going to do? she asked.
This man sef... Everytime test every time test doesn't he get tired of marking? this is the eleventh test we are going to write....he should just free us na or did we do something wrong ni, so that we will go and ask for forgiveness.

Anabelle calm down I tell her.
Why should I calm down when I know that I'm going to score zero ehn? please don't disturb me I beg she waves me off.

I was going to tell you that errm I read the Novel, but since you said I should not disturb you, let me continue my sleep and please don't wake me up until it's time for the test.i tell her.

Ahh bestyyyyy Annabelle says as she taps my back.
Don't besty me I tell her before putting my head on the desk.
Nana please na she pleads...
Leave me alone I say.
Nana time is going ooo the teacher will come soon.
Let him come now I reply.
She keeps quiet for a while before clearing her throat.
Nana if you want to help me, it's either now or never I hear her say.
I raise my head and I find her serious.
Okay fine I'll help you but does the whole class know about the test?I ask her.
No she replied.
Please tell the...........m I was about to say but she was already shouting Class we have literature test in less than thirty minutes .... And before I knew it,my class mates were rushing into the classroom.

When the whole class were settled,most of them said they hadn't read the Novel.

I took my novel, stood in front of the class and begin to tell them what the book is all about.
The theme, the main character...etc.
To cut the story short,I summarised the story and in thirty minutes time,we wrote the test.
My class mates were all around me and were like girl you just saved our lives......... sure I did.

Cassy and her friends were the only ones who didn't spare me a glance.....I don't care.

After the competition,my house came first in most of the field events and parade.
We were the overall best.
I, Julian and Anabelle were co_incidentally in the same house.
Annabelle would not stop bluffing about her house....chai today we would not hear word.

The principal was giving the last speech for the day when I slowly isolated myself from my friends to go get a drink of water.

Well well well, well played Nana.
You know,I always used to be the queen for red house but not until you came along and took all attention to yourself are you happy now?

I turn to her and reply.
Happy is an understatement besides what reason do I have not to be happy?

Hahaha she laughs then replied.
Ohh so you think that you have a reason to be happy huh?
You that is doing house girl in somebody's house.
Ohh you think we don't know that you are some village girl who ran away because your father said you are a witch?

Really... Cassandra I don't know where or how you get your stories from but please don't drag my personal life into this I tell her.

Little House girl...I wonder if you sell your body too just to get money she says and her friends begin to giggle.

I feel my chest tighten and I know that if I don't leave now,I do something bad.

I begin to walk back to my friends when I hear her say something like prostitute.
I turn around and walk back to her.
What did you just say?I ask her.

Why do you care? she asks me back.

Alright Cassy enough is enough.
First you harass me in the class,then you throw a pill of banana on the floor which made me fall..I nearly broke my arm then you lock me up in that smelly toilet and now what huh I dare you to say one more word and we are done I tell her.

Hey Nana calm down don't mind her let's just go everyone is beginning to look in your direction Chelsea whispers in my ear....
When did she even arrive here.

I turned to go with Chelsea when Cassandra said"I heard your mother is a prostitute"

My mother okay we're done.
I turn around and give Cassandra a dirty slap that send her to the ground.
Now all attention was on me.
My friends ran and took hold of me so as not to make another move.

Teachers were now running towards Cassy who lay still on the ground.
She fainted.
Tears were now flowing freely from my eyes.
I should not have done that..

My principal walks to me a few minutes later then says the least I expected to hear.
"Go pick your bag and go home don't come to school until you hear from us"
I'm sorry ma I should not have done what I did I'm sorry I plead.

She looks at me then Pat's me on the back.
Just do as I say she said to me before walking away.
