"I did, but I was only interested in the plaster on her face, she looked angry. I was only interested in finding you both." Science says, while Dumlesi moves closer to them. She obviously did not want other people to hear what she had to say.

"April. I take it you also heard the sounds of moaning?" Dumlesi asks April, who wonders what it has to do with Ibinabor.

"I did," April says, nodding.

"Ibinabor also emerged from that direction!" Dumlesi explains.

"You are not sure she was the one; there were several stalls there. You just heard the door knock!" April says.

"April, are you just too naive or stupid?" Dumlesi rolls her eyes.

"Dumlesi. What are you trying to say with all of this long grammar? What is our business if I.b. was having sex in the restroom? For goodness sake, we all know they are engaged. They can misbehave as much as they want." Science says, piqueing April's interest in the conversation. Meanwhile, Dumlesi laughs.

"Dang it! That is what I was driving out. You finally get what I am saying. But my instinct says it was not Jordan in there!" Dumlesi explains.

"Detective, Dumlesi!" Science makes a face.

"Do not forget. We met Jordan at the entrance to the prep hall. The person fucking Ibinabor could not have left before us. We heard a few moans. Ibinabor exits a few minutes later. She could not have been moaning by herself." Dumlesi concludes.

"She might have been masturbating!" April chipped in, making Science happy.

"Thank you. She might have been masturbating!" Science states.

"Are you both naive, stupid, or do you simply refuse to believe what I am saying?" Dumlesi, rolling her eyes, asks in a seemingly provoked manner. "April, we clearly heard a male and female moaning; do not forget the door clicked open and closed! Before we left. Dumlesi explains.

"And?" Science inquires, giving Dumlesi the impression that she is exaggerating the situation.

"Science, what are you implying?" Dumlesi inquired.

"You should mind your own business. I do not want any problems with Ibinabor. Whether or not she was having sex, and with whom. It is not our business. We should mind our own business!" Science says.

"Fine! Forget about it. You simply cannot reason as intelligently as I do," Dumlesi says, making Science laugh.

"Oshey. Most intelligent. April says, causing the girls to laugh.
"Why has Nancy refused to go to the sickbay?" This is becoming serious." April eventually asks what has been bothering her. She observes the girl's facial expressions. They appeared relaxed.

"That is how she is. She hates going to the sickbay, but she will be fine!" Science states.

"So she gets sick frequently?" April expresses concern.

"Not really. However, there is never a term when she is not sick!" Science states.

"Science, later you will claim to have sense. What is the difference between what April said and what you just said? So she gets sick frequently? Not really, but there is hardly a term that goes by that she does not get sick, "Mockingly, Dumlesi remarks. April grinned at this. They were both drama queens.

"You lack common sense!"

The cafeteria appears to be quite empty. It was obvious that classes had started. No one dared to come to breakfast. Even if they had not eaten breakfast, time had passed. Coming in at this time meant you were breaking the school's rules. However, Ss3 students were always known to break school rules in the name of inspecting the Junoir.

Jordan tries to adjust his tie as he walks over to sit with his friends. He had not been feeling well, and drugs were not his thing.

He had not been feeling well, and drugs were not his thing. He grasps it with his left hand while attempting to adjust his tie. He immediately moves to where they were sitting. Wealth erupted into laughter. Jordan, who was already used to his friends' silly behavior, shakes his head.

"Goriola, I hope he is not still high."Jordan inquires of Goriola, who smiles. It was unusual.

"The boy's just too stupid. I was wondering how he smuggled hard drugs into the school grounds without being caught!" Goriola grimaces.

"You guys should free me. I am not high, I am on the low, on the low oh," Wealth says in a sing-song voice, tapping the table amusingly.

"Gori, are you positive this guy is not high?" Jordan asks, alarmed.

"I am just wondering how he could be so stupid to bring it to school," Goriola says, seemingly unconcerned.

Hey, hey. You two should relax." Wealth speaks now, sounding serious. Jordan expressed his disbelief. "What is up with your innocent behavior? As if you both do not use hard drugs. Wealth hisses, causing Jordan to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank God," Jordan exclaims.

"You both assumed I was high?" Wealth chuckles.

"Wealth, your stupidity should not get us in trouble!" Goriola clearly expresses concern.

"What is up with you today? I was not feeling it, so I took more! Let me be, please." Wealth addresses Goriola, who tries to say something else but raises his hands in defeat. Not without asking Jordan for help.

"Wealth, seriously bringing this to school could get us in trouble." Consider what would happen if we were caught. I am not sure what your father would do to you, but mine will definitely skin me alive!" Jordan says in hushed tones, while Wealth laughs.

"Jay. Stop acting like a child; we are almost legal, for fuck sake!" Wealth says.

"We are on school grounds. Wealth does not put me in trouble. Bad company was part of the reason my father bundled me back to Nigeria!" Goriola grimaces.

"You two should relax. I really needed it." Wealth grinned.

"Wealth, do not get addicted!" Jordan warns.

"Someone who sees you speaking may mistake you for a saint!" Wealth speaks to Jordan, who attempts to say something else but remains silent.

"You forced words out of Jordan's mouth today!" Goriola smirks, causing Jordan to frown.

"Seriously? Are you here, or there?" Jordan asks, using his hand to demonstrate.

"Goriola, Wealth doesn't..."

"Jay, keep quiet. Wendy is coming, " Wealth cuts Jordan off. He immediately falls silent.

The three of them watched Wendy and Darlintina make their way to their seats. Wealth exhibits his best smile. Goriola, who notices this, just maintains a straight face.

"Good morning, seniors." Wendy greets in an upbeat tone. Meanwhile, Darlintina follows suit.

"Hey, how are you doing?" Jordan inquires in a friendly tone. Wendy and Darlintina murmur some response.

Goriola had been watching them without saying anything. Adjust himself in discomfort.

"You two are not supposed to be here at this time. Breaking the school rules!" Goriola says with a straight face.

"We actually forgot my purse at breakfast. So we came to collect it." Darlintina gives a carefree response.

"So, have you both picked it?" Jordan asks with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes, we were on our way out when we saw you. So we came to say hello." Wendy lets out a smile.

"Oh. I am certain there is a teacher in your class!" Goriola speaks.

"Yes. We are actually on our way out. Wendy says, trying to analyze Goriola's facial expression.

"Oh, okay!" Goriola speaks with a straight face.

"Hey, Senior Jordan!" Wendy calls out.

"See you around," Jordan replies.

"Alright. Tina Let us go. Wendy takes Darlintina by the hand. She tries to move but stops, causing Darlintina to do the same. Goriola's face hardens with this development. Wendy turns back toward them, and Darlintina follows suit.

"Senior Jordan. Did you see Ibinabor's face?" Wendy asks with a blank expression. This question immediately captures the three boys' attention.

"Yes. I was wondering what had happened." Jordan says, scanning Wendy's face for hints.

"You two fought again?" Goriola inquires in a casual manner.

"I knew that is what everyone would think!" Wendy let out a laugh. "But I have passed that stage; I can not fight Ibinabor of all people, no offense." Wendy gives a cheerful smile.

"She insulted our friend Boma and was giving her the beating of her life," Darlintina says, clearly exaggerating.

"She lacks strength but is always willing to fight! That is why she gets beaten up," Wendy explains.

Wealth and Jordan remained silent throughout, staring at both girls. Wendy tries to say something else, but the jingling bell beats her to it.

"It is second period!" Darlintina expresses discomfort.

"We missed our first class!" Wendy pulls Darlintina away without saying anything else. The three boys watch as they vanish into thin air.

"Jordan. You are fucking up!" Goriola says immediately the girls were out of sight. Jordan looks at him, wondering what was wrong. " Which junior student or let me put it this way, which girl in Ss2 except Ibinabor and your sister Fisayo, can walk up to you in such manner, a whole senior perfect!" Goriola grimaces.

"Gori. What is your issue with Wendy? Why don't you just like her! That girl has never crossed your path, as far as I know!" Wealth speaks with a straight face.

"That girl is just too cheap. Can't you see the way she throws herself on Jordan? Without shame. My only problem is Jordan is giving her the opportunity, which students can walk over to us and start spilling rubbish. Just imagine. I just wanted to say hello. To your Senior perfect?" Goriola frowns.

"Gori, she is family. I can not treat her badly. You, of all people, should know who I am. I dislike talking too much, but I have to tolerate her because she just keeps coming." Jordan tries to clarify.

"That is because you continue to give her opportunities. The irony is that she is primarily the source of conflict between you and Ibinabor." Goriola explains.

"Oh God!" Jordan, who had grown tired of arguing, says.

"Jay. I am trying to prove a point, If her cousin doesn't want her near you. You should avoid her. I bet the only reason she came here was to talk about I.b," Goriola says, attempting to prove a point.

"Gori, stop instilling negative thoughts in Jordan's mind." Wealth attacks.

"Wealth, we all know you love anything wearing skirt. You can literally sleep with anything; I do not want to begin with you." Goriola fires.

"Gori, you are actually a bastard, don't try me!" Wealth who was suddenly provoked says.

"Alright! I am out."Jordan blurts out.
