*** Anne's POV continues *** Their faces were all far from smile, I need no soothsayer to know that I'm in trouble. "Jeremy your attention isn't needed here, so I'll love if you would just get yourself outta here!!" Lisa huffed angrily to Jeremy. "And how do my presence disturb you?" He seethed and rolled his eyes. "Jeremy, you can leave, this is not a little matter, just leave okay?" The proprietor said to him and he arched his brow.. "What if I say I'm not leaving here alone without her!" He said with a raised brow leaving the proprietor shocked. "I don't understand.. Is Anne your girlfriend or what?" He asked confusedly. "Uhmm.. that's isn't your concern so back off!!" Jeremy growled. "You are really behaving as if there is something going on between you both" he said and Jeremy scoffed. "Stop poking into other people's matter you chump!!" He cursed leaving me shocked at how rude he was, I came to remember the former Jeremy, that guy who hates Nigeria and acts ru
"Anne did you just slapped me!!" She screamed with total shock, her whole body was trembling in great fury, her eyes shone with great anger. I could feel her about to burst. I just smirked and tilted my head. "Lisa! Since I stepped my feet into this school, you've kept on picking on me, you had always made me suffer oppression, I did you no wrong, I did nothing to you but you choose to make me despondent, see listen to me.. I had kept quiet all this while and act timid, doesn't mean I don't know how to act, mind you, behind the poor and timid Anne you know there is a deadly lion who would never take shit from desperate fool like you.. Jeremy chooses me over you because he saw how stupid you are... Do you think maltreating me would make him love you?..ugh...never instead, he would keep hating you more and more.." I paused and scoffed before going on.. "Firstly when I saw you, I thought you are sensible the way you are beautiful but less did I know that you're a beauty withou
*** Jeremy's P.O.V *** I took her by her hand and walked away to the wash room, she cleaned up every filth and dressed into another new uniform kept as reserve for students. My heart was heavy with anger. I felt like I would burst any moment from now, I wasn't there to save her from the embarrassment because I was called by the principal, I had felt it when I was in the office, I felt it that Anne was in trouble and that was why I abruptly rushed out of the office without concluding the discussion I was having with the principal. Words can't just explain or ascertain how I felt seeing Anne embarrassed and mocked, the way everyone in the class jeered and scorn at her really left my heart shattered. "Jeremy let's go" she mumbled to me as she walked out of the washroom looking clean and new. "What really happened?" I asked her breathing heavily. "Because I slapped Lisa yesterday, the proprietor beckoned the student to taunt and scorn at me, after that, he gave me an expu
*** Lisa's POV *** Slowly, my eyes fluttered and open, everywhere was blurry and I can't yet ascertain where I was. I shut my eyes tightly trying to get myself back to normal, I opened it again after some minutes and this time my sight was slightly clear, my head was really pounding hardly that I felt like I was carrying a building on my head. What really happened to me?" I looked around and found out that everywhere was scanty except for a chair at the corner. I tried standing up and that was when I discovered that I was bound to the chair I was sitting, my feet and whole body were tied tightly to the chair and I can't even shake any of my body except my head. How did I got here? I asked myself again trying hard to regain my sense which was actually blank and empty at that time. I shut my eyes again and slowly what happened recently came creeping into my mind, I got to remember how I was kidnapped on my way back from school, immediately I remembered this, I felt my who
I kept mute as he drove me to his house, I was just dumb and couldn't talk much due to the fear that eloped my whole body, the tray was still resting on my laps. "What's your name?" He asked "Anne" I replied slowly "Uhmm that's a nice name, well I'm Tony like I said earlier, and I'm the proprietor of Martin's High School, you know of it right?" He asked and I nodded, even when I knew I don't know of the school. "Are you still frighten?" He asked and I sighed and wiped the sweat which had already formed on my forehead. "You don't have to be afraid, I'm harmless especially to beautiful and calm ladies like you" he said and I felt my heart hitch. "What do you actually wants from me, do you know me before?" I asked confusedly "Uhmm well, I don't really know you but on seeing you, I just liked you and decided to help you through" he said and I exhaled heavily. "Please I don't need your help, as you can see I'm not a beggar" I said shrugging my shoulders "I'll explain eve
"Make it clear to me, you are taken Anne to Hillary High school for what, why if I may ask?" My father inquired with grim "Uhmm well, I just felt like doing it, I need someone to accompany me" I said with a lopsided smile. "I don't think it would be possible!" He said wagging his head "Why?" I asked inquisitively "Her life is in danger and for her to go out there would make her vulnerable to those who want her life, I employed her here to keep her safe from harm, no one knows where her enemies are, so Son I don't want to harm her by letting her out of this place!" He said sternly glancing at Anne "What! Anne is that true???" I asked facing her with an arched brow. At first, she couldn't utter any word, she just sat still glancing at my father and I, it seem she was lost of words, I just prayed silently that she would just tell me that all my father said are mere lies... "It's tr..ue.." she replied after some minute. "It is true... you say??" I asked trying to be sure
*** Jeremy's POV *** "Are you mad! how dare you hurl those insult on my girlfriend!!!!" David thundered with fury in his eyes. "I'm sorry, just that I hate these Nigerians with passion" I said standing up. "You are sorry wouldn't do any good you know?" he seethed. "Then I don't know what you want me to do, I've already said the words and I can't take it back" I said staring at him. "Jeremy all you would do now is go to her and apologize, that's what you will or else we would get into problem" he said and I scoffed "You must be the biggest joker, I Jeremy can never do that gibberish you just said" I retorted. "Then know that we are now great enemy, don't just come near me again" he said and made to leave but I caught hold of him "Wait are you serious?" I asked with an arched brow and he scoffed "I'm more than serious buddy!" he said and I sigh "Okay I'm going to do it but just make her know that I hate girls in this fucking country!" I said and went toward the damn
*** Jeremy's POV continues *** The very moment I saw David was when I got to my real sense, that was when I discovered what I was actually doing. Oh gosh!! I quickly broke off the kiss and shoved the girl away from me. David came closer clapping his hands, his face was contorted in fury and I'm sure he would pick up a fight with me. "David calm down it isn't what you think!" I tried explaining but couldn't go further as he quickly sent a blow to my face but just then, his girlfriend stood in between and he ended up punching her making her sprawl on the ground with a loud thud. "You see what you have caused" David huffed angrily to me then squatted down to check on her. I glanced at the girl then at David before taking my leave, I'm very befuddled. I walked away from them even when it was really hard for me to do, I found it very hard leaving the girl, I really want to check on her also but I just can't, I feel guilty for everything. I feel guilty for kissing another
