"Adesua" someone says shaking me violently.

I wake up instantly but I don't open my eyes because I know who it is. It's my mum, this woman sef. I love her a lot but the way she used to shake somebody ehh.

"Yes mum" I answer sitting up.

"Are you not going to school today?" she asks me, looking at down at me with huge eyes.

Nigerian mothers and asking questions they already know the answer. It's Monday morning, first day of school, nothing is wrong with me. Why would I be at home?

"I'm going" I say lazily standing up.

Getting up for school is the most bitter sweet experience for me. I want to leave my house and see my friends but I want to stay in bed and watch movies all day.

It's a tough life.

"You know what to do" she says leaving my room.

I do. I go over to my twin brother's room, which is right beside mine and I barge in without knocking because I know he's asleep. He's a deep sleeper could sleep through a hurricane, I'm not capping.

"Osaeze" I say tapping him.

"I said you should call me Nathan" he drawls out each word as he wakes up rubbing his eyes.

Is this one mad? I'm waking you up, you're telling me what to call you. God will help you.

"Go and get ready for school" I say leaving his room.

*****************************

We get to the huge parking lot of Lethbridge High and my stomach does a cart wheel, a somersault and a perfect backflip before twisting into knots.

I think I'm going to throw up!

New school and I hate it already. That's for sure.

"Mizz Naomi, we don reach" my driver says.

I laugh inwardly, Mr Kunle always says his s as z and z as s.

"Okay sir" I say getting my bag.

I get down very reluctantly, I'm seriously contemplating getting back into the car and going back to my house.

"Thank you sir" I say as I shut the door.

I walk into the school building as slowly as I can, I wish Nathan registered for the same school but just a little. That boy is too annoying.

The real problem, would be finding my class

Well, in my old school the SS3 classes were on the top floor. So, I'll start from there. Just as I thought the SS3 classes are on the top floor. I walk into SS3 science with all the confidence I can build.

I am very aware of their scrutinizing eyes burning holes on every single part of me but I blatantly ignore the stares and comments as I desperately try to find an empty seat.

"New student in SS3"

"She's fine tho"

"Her skirt is too short"

"There's a free seat here"

I turn my head toward the direction of the voice and I set my eyes on a dark skinned beauty. The energy that radiates from her smile is so positive because I find myself smiling back. Not something I usually do.

I walk briskly towards her and take my seat.

"Thank you" I breathe out, trying to settle down.

"Sure" she says not looking up from her phone.

Phones inside the classroom! That's a new one that I didn't expect.

"Mother Theresa, is that not Bimbo's seat" someone says to her.

"Is it your business, Bimbo will sit on the one beside her" she snaps, giving the person a deadly glare.

"I can move to another seat" I chip in hurriedly, I'm new and the last thing I want is to start a fight.

"Fashy that thing. I'm Anita by the way"

"I'm Naomi"

"Which school are you coming from?"

"Bowen"

"Who took my chair?"

The question cuts short my conversation with Anita, the girl asking doesn't seem happy.

"Aunty, nobody has chair just look for somewhere and sit" someone says eyeing her.

Rude much! I'm really getting sick of these Lethbridge children they honestly have no manners at all. Only few of them have sense.

"Why are you na eyeing me?" she asks.

"Isn't too early to fight, Diane calm down" A girl says as she walks in, she seems to be in a good mood. Fun fact she's coming my way.

So her name is Diane and who on earth is this beautiful girl?

This school is just full of fine girls up and down, I just hope their boys would not disappoint.

"Hello nini" she says as she pulls Anita in for a hug, Anita hugs her back and it's pretty obvious that she missed her friend.

So pretty girl was going to meet Anita, not me. It's all good.

"You are always late, you need to change, abi you don't want to be a prefect again. Bimbo is not a sign of responsibility" Anita rants shaking her head at her.

"Leave that thing abeg. I can't kill myself" Pretty girl says dropping her bag on an empty chair.

"Meet the new girl Naomi" Anita says pointing to me.

Ugh! I'm being referred to as the new girl. This thing just ruffles my feathers honestly.

"Welcome to Lethbridge Naomi. I am Abimbola" Pretty girl says with a bright smile.

"Thank you" I mumble returning the smile.

***************************************

I walk into the cafeteria with Anita and Bimbo. These girls are completely crazy. They're funny, nice and smart.

From the amount of time I've spent with them, I've seen that Anita is the mean one.

She's not necessarily mean, but people perceive her that way because of her intimidating aura and sharp voice.

Bimbo is the calm, cool headed, funny dancer girl. She's just a vibe and always seems to have a party going on in her head.

The table is already occupied but I guess they're all friends because they just blend into the conversation.

"Who's this?"

It takes some seconds before I realise that whoever asked that question was referring to me.

I look up from my plate of food to see him, yes him, staring at me with a plain face.

He's extremely handsome, he has black curly hair and is light skinned with pink lips and from what I can see he's a tall figure and he looks mixed.

Osheyyy, Americana

"Everyone, this is Naomi" bimbo announces to the table.

"I'm Tyrone" curly haired guy says.

"I'm temitope but everyone calls me temi"

"I'm Ayo"

The introductions flow round the table and I'm just silently praying I remember all their names.

"Which school are you coming from?" Temi asks.

"Bowen"

"Mad oo, that school is really nice" bimbo manages to croak out of her mouth which is full of spaghetti.

"And I hear it's full of fine girls" Ayo says smirking at me.

I don't know. How do I react to this, do I smile or just ignore? Yeah, I'm going with ignore.

"I guess it's true" Tyrone says winking at me.

Yeah, definitely ignoring that. Even though you're hella cute.

"Flirt osi, don't face your life" Anita says hissing.

Jealous much!

I'm calling her jealous, I don't know if they have history or chemistry ehn Naomi may God help you.

"Cool your blood" he says tapping her head which earns him a playful slap. From her and earns a laugh from everyone.

"Break is almost over, let's go inside" Bimbo says standing up.

Oluwa wetin dey occur? Didn't we just get here now?

"What do we have now?" I ask her.

"Sadly, it's computer and that man does not take nonsense" she answers.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

It's the last period of the day and we have chemistry and it is a real pain.

I keep my eyes glued to the clock waiting for closing time but unfortunately time is moving real slow.

"Naomi this you're looking at the clock will not make time move faster" Anita says laughing.

"Leave me jhor, it's remaining five minutes then I can leave this hell" I hiss, my eyes not leaving the clock for a second.

"You don't like chemistry se? Me sef but bimbo loves chemistry with everything inside of her" she says.

I turn to look at her and just the sight of her is making me to laugh, she is paying such rapt attention and jotting furiously.

"God forbid" I say facing Anita.

She laughs quietly.

"Forget that the period will soon finish oo, this man must always use like extra five minutes" she says eyeing him like a true Yoruba girl.

"He's all those type of teachers" I say sighing.

"Two of you are disturbing me oo" Bimbo snaps angrily.

"Sorry" Anita whispers back.

The period is over but this man is still holding us in the lab. It has pass five minutes nawa.

"Mr Moses release these children" someone says at the door.

"Ah, our saviour has arrived" Anita says packing her books.

"Who is that?" I ask packing mine twice as fast.

"HOD of sciences"

"Yes sir, take this assignment" he says as he goes over to write on the board.

So after giving two class works and detaining us for extra eight minutes, you are giving assignment. Waka jam you

After writing down the assignment, we all rush out of the lab like people that were released from prison.

We go to our class and get our bags, then we head outside.

"Naomi, give your number" she says handing me a piece of paper.

I give her my number and my Instagram name.

"Be expecting my text" she says as she collect it from me.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I'm so tired when I get home. I can barely walk, I manage to climb the stairs and go to my room.

First day of school and I'm so drained. I still have a whole term left.

I put my bag on my bed and take off my uniform and head to the showers. After a long and super satisfying shower I rush to the kitchen with the sped of light to make something to eat.

That Nathan that I know as my brother. He knows I have arrived. He can't even come and welcome me. Idiot.

I go upstairs to my room and start to do my homework but Nathan is blasting music from his room and it is so distracting.

I can't take it anymore. I'm going to teach him how to behave.

"Osaeze, are you mad? You can't even be considerate that I'm right beside you're just playing loud music. What is it naa? If you can't be normal, please move we have many unused rooms" I snap barging into his room.

"Adesua, you are so rude. Why not save this your madness for when my friend leaves" he says pointing to an incredibly hot dude sitting on his bed.

"I didn't notice you had a friend around" I say calmly.

"Boy will not kill you, she has changed voice quick, quick" he says.

What is wrong with this boy, why does he want me to die of embarrassment? Can he not shut up in this his life?

"Nathan, take it easy on your sister" his friend says.

"I'm Jason" he says to me.

"I'm Naomi" I say smiling at him.

And no, no, no I'm not interested in him but I have to act cute na.

"Why didn't you and your brother register at the same school?" Jason asks.

"He's too annoying" I mumble but somehow somehow my idiot brother still heard me.

"Look at her eyeing me and she says I'm the annoying one" he says to Jason.

I didn't even look at you!

"We're both in science class, there'll be too much competition" I explain to them

"It's a lie. It's because I'll baby her and she wants to follow boys" Nathan says slapping my forehead really hard.

"Two of you in one room. The commotion would be too much" Jason chuckles and I completely agree.

"I'm going to my room, just reduce this music" I say standing up.

"Be going, no one called you here" Nathan says as he reduces the music.

"You think I want to be in your room for another second, God forbid" I say closing his door with a loud bang.

************************

I don't know when I slept but I'm woken up by my phone which is ringing rather loudly.

Who be this sef

"Hello" I say sitting up.

"It's Anita, are you sleeping?"

"No oo, I'm skydiving" I say with a hiss.

"Mehd o, with who" she says laughing.

"mu2, obviously I'm sleeping at least I was" I say but I'm laughing too.

"Anyhoo, I just called to ask how far your chemistry?"

So you woke me up to ask me about chemistry, Aunty you don cross line.

"I'm done after much stress"

"I swear but number 8"

"Tomorrow, I'll give you"

"Don't forget oo"

"I won't. Good night" I say then I hang up.
