AT THE CINEMA
:
Josh cleared his throat and was like, “Guy, she’s still too young for that o.” A statement which made me forcefully remove my hands from Ken’s as I now understood what he was up to.

“What’s your name?” Ken asked with his hands in his trouser pockets.

“Be…!” I started to say but then Josh pinched me a little from behind as a sign to keep quiet while Nath came to where we stood.

“Hey Ken! Whatsup?” Nath while the shook hands.

“Cool bro,” Ken smiled and turned to look at me again. “And her name please?”

“That won’t be necessary Ken, will you join us or?” Nath asked.

“I’ll join you, i’ve got my ticket.”

“All right,” Nath and Ken said in unison, then held my hands as we walked inside the cinema…

Inside the cinema, we sat on the third row. Nath and Josh sat beside me thus putting me in the middle so as not to give Ken who sat beside Josh a chance to talk to me or ask anything.

Later, Josh went out to buy some popcorn and hollandia yogurt(my best snacks).

Immediately Josh left, Ken moved from his seat and sat on Josh’s.

“You never told me your name angel?” he said in a whisper almost sounding like a question.

I glanced at Nath who’s right hand was placed across my shoulder, his eyes was fixed to the screen in which the movie was shown.
“No!” I said coldly.

“Why?”
“Nothing.”

“Then tell me,” he pestered.

“I said no,”[/b] I frowned almost shouting. Nath turned to face us, then Ken quickly jumped back into his seat. I could see anger in Nath’s of which I guessed Ken is not a good person or maybe one that maltreats girls like my cousin’s husband.

“Ken, she is too young for you to start making advances at her, please let her be,”
Nath pleaded and pulled me up and we began walking towards the exit.

“Are we going home so soon?” I asked as Nath pulled me out of the hall.

“Yea,” he said and pulled me to the popcorn stand where Josh paid the money, picked up the four bags of popcorn and turned to leave but stood surprisingly as he saw us.

“What’s wrong?” He asked.

“We’re leaving now,” Nath breath heavily.

“I know that Ken is behind this, lets go,” Josh said, then we walked to the car.

Before one knew it, we were driving along the tarred road that led to the house.

“Why did we have to leave so soon?” I wanted to know.

“Ken, hope you understand,” Josh smiled at me and pulled me to himself while Nath who was driving nodded…
:
We got home at about 6:05pm to meet mom in the sitting room.

“Why back so early?” Mom asked as I ran into her arms while she held me and smoothened my hair.

“Someone tried making advances towards her, tho he is our friend but he’s a player,” Nath replied and headed upstairs while Josh moved and dropped the bags of popcorn on the dining table but he couldn’t get the chance to buy hollandia yogurt, then came back to the sitting room and sat on the couch.

“Oh! That’s bad,” Mom said and sat back on the couch while I sat on her laps. “He didn’t allow my jewel enjoy herself.”

“It’s all right aunt, we can go again together come saturday,” Josh said calmly.

“Good idea,” Mom smiled and turned to me. “The principal called me, I will take you to school tomorrow,” She informed me.

“Okay mom, let me go and change,” I stood up and walked towards the stairs.

“Becky,” mom called as I was about to climb up and I stopped and turned back. “David came to look for you.”

“David?” I was surprised. “He came?”

“Yes but nevermind, he said he will be here tomorrow and I will take you both to school myself.”

“I just hope I won’t be late again,” I chuckled as I turned and ran upstairs.

“Silly girl,” Mom laughed…
:
THE NEXT DAY
:
I woke up very early as usual and prepared but this time, mom didn’t delay and by 6:45am, we were already on our way to school. David had come to our house and I sat with him at the back seat while mom drove…
:
PRESTIGIOUS INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL.
:
We reached the school 6:50am on the d.o.t. On normal days, mom would have parked outside but that day she drove straight into the school compound. Though students had come, the school compound looked scanty.

Mom led David and I to the principal’s office…
:
INSIDE THE PRINCIPAL’S OFFICE.
:
I saw Joy and Peace sitted on the settee with a woman I guessed was Peace’s mother. She wore a grey colour suit which needed no one to tell me she will be going to the office from there.

“Gloria,” the woman exclaimed in shock and stood up.

“Stella,” Mom also called in surprise, then they hugged each other in excitement.

The woman looked very much like Peace and my instincts told me she must be her mother but what relationship does she have with my own mother..
