"She's the one, Sir." She pointed at me. "Oh! you mean Chikaima Okpala?" The principal asked her with a surprised look. The seducer wasn't quite happy of the fact that the principal knew me. I had my records in the school, good records though.

"Good afternoon sir, you're welcome to ss3A", we greeted in general and he just waved us down and continued with whatever drama was going on between he and the new girl.

"The new student here named Naomi Ike, came few minutes ago and reported to me that you chased her out of her locker. Is that true?" He asked.

Me? Chikaima Golden Okpala, Sent her out of her locker? does she even have a locker?. I just shook my head and stared at them like they both fell down from from space.

The Principal gave me a stern look and it took all everything in me to resist the urge to roll my eyes.

"Sir, She doesn't even have a locker of her own." I defended, getting angry. So her name is Naomi Ike? Is she not tired of the troubles she has caused on her first day of school?

I thought new students were meant to be quiet and cool. But look at her trying to be a viper. When I joined Standard High School in JSS1, I was shy and composed. Not a public flirt that has already strategised plans of taking peoples boyfriends.

"Just let her stay with you and your sit partner till she gets hers." The principal defended the eel beside him.

That must have been a terrible joke coming from him because staying with her would most likely become a- 'Do Or Die' affair.

"What the Fuck??" I muttered and the principal asked me "You said..?". "Nothing serious but sir..", I replied him seriously pissed off.

"No objection and be good to her" He interrupted me and went out of the class. Naomi then took her bag to put near mine and I stopped her with a raise of my right hand.

"Find somewhere else to keep that trash bag, there is no vacancy for such." I muttered in such a way that she could hear it.

Nonsense! All she wanted to do was to get on my nerves.

"Can I go over to the corner while you stay in between?" I asked Dindu with formality and no tone of sweetness.

"Am sorry, I can't stay in between two ladies." He simply retorted.

And I felt like pulling off his mouth...No, giving him a sound slap.

"Why not?" the pretty bastard asked him with a wink.

"Just shut up!" Dindu snapped and all I could do was spice up the situation with torrents of heart breaking laughter. She stiffened in shock of what she just heard from Dindu and I muttered 'statue of liberty' to her before going back to my award winning laughter.

Hours later, school came to a closure and I was packing my notebooks into my bag. The class was already empty and it was only I and Dindu inside.

It took nothing much out of me to totally ignore him and keep on with my notebooks packing. I decided that I wouldn't mind him unless he asked for my attention.

And he did just that.

"Kaima, I'm sorry." I heard a soft voice behind me as I felt a light squeeze on my shoulder.

Irritated I turned to face him. Even though I really wanted to talk this crap over with him, I still wanted him to know that I don't tolerate nonsense.

"Did I just hear you say sorry?" I chuckled lightly. "First of all, What are you sorry about?"

He sighed. "Everything,"

Answers like that are big turn offs for me in discussions or whatsoever. It meant that he either had no idea of what he did wrong or that he just wanted to get his way through easily.

I thought he knew his girlfriend more than that.

"Everything is nothing," I pointed out. "I want you to be specific."

"Was it because of the situation you found I and Naomi in this afternoon? Look, I have told you to stop being insecured. You're my girlfriend and no one is taking that position anytime soon. There is no real cause for alarm." He stated.

I was mad, no...guned down. His words were just like bullets that hit right into my chest. Who told him that I was being insecure? I tried not to laugh at a critical situation like this. It would only bring about an assumption that I am mad.

If I were the person ogling another guy, he would get jealous and mad. But now it's his turn, it's now on and cruze.

I shaked my head before lashing out at him literally, "What I think is that you should leave me alone and go on with your babe. And yes, she's hot. Hm, I thought you had some senses but no! I was all wrong. They were all stocks of rotten tissues up there. So please go and find some cells to get your brain working". Infuriated and disgusted at the kind of person I call a boyfriend, I left the class after that.

My heart was swelling with anger. I didn't care if I was over reacting or not. I wasn't any type of girl to be messed around with.

And the most annoying part is that he didn't even call or run after me. You know what? I felt like a Big Fool.

Just then, Naomi ran to me." I will be hosting a party in my house. Will you come?" She asked and I just stopped my self from slapping her till blood tickles down her neck.

First day in school, she was already hosting a party. What self image was she trying to build for herself?

I hissed angrily.

"What will i be coming to your party for? Did you miss your directions when you were heading to me or did you loose some screws in that skull of yours. Your parents are just looking for teenagers to use for rituals and i am not ready to be a burnt sacrifice." I stated and left her without turning my back to see her reaction, which will only be anger.

It was when I entered my mom's car that it occurred to me on how I spoke to her, especially accusing her parents whom i knew nothing of.

But you won't blame me, nothing is new under the earth surface. Parents can host parties for their kids just to use the attendants for ritual.

After the short and smooth drive home, I got out of the car, helped my mom with opening of the door and then went to the bathroom where I had a long shower.

Just when, I was coming out of the bathroom and preparing for bed, my phone buzzed.

And just as I expected, it was Dindu.
