"Attention learners!" Our teacher exclaims and we all turn our attention to her.

"I'm extremely proud of you all. Especially because you performed well in my subject. No one got less than 60% in English, let's give a round of applause for ourselves!" She says smiling.

The room is filled with applause and acclamation.

"So I'm going to be calling out the top 5 students that acquired distinctions in this class."

"And in 5th place we have..... Lwazi!" She exclaims.

[Applauds]

"In 4th place we have Melinda!"

[Applauds]

"In 3rd place we have Jasmine!"

[Applauds]

"In second place we have....Lisak-anya!"

Everyone started clapping and I instantly blush. Teachers need to start pronouncing my name right honestly speaking.

"And in first place we have...drum roll!"

The boys start beating the tables repeatedly.

"Sihle Mbulali!"

I turn my gaze at Sihle, sitting behind me. I couldn't be more proud. I give her a warm smile and she responds with a wink. LOL. Sihle has always been a step ahead of me. You could call it competition.

It has been a busy ass week ever since the Kholwani saga and guess what? You guessed right! He is still not talking to me. Why he is giving me the silent treatment, remains a mystery to me. I'm guessing there's something else his mad about, but I wouldn't know if he is constantly leaving me on read. The saddest part of it is that I create fake scenarios in my head of him fucking some chick.

Sihle came to my house to help me out with the assignments I missed during the suspension. We get along really well now. She even met my mom. For some reason my mom doesn't like her. You should have seen how she was oogling her every move like she's a thief. Anyways she apologized for the bathroom incident and we made up I guess.

Today marks the last day of matric and I couldn't be more ecstatic! To hell with this sick uniform, I swear I'll burn it. All that's left is the matric dance and prize giving day and I sever all ties with this school. Honestly speaking, I don't know RLI from then onwards. If anyone asks, I was homeschooling.

Selena is coming over so we can celebrate her birthday sometime this week. I'm so excited! Thank God for uncle T or I'd have to take her to McDonald's again this year. Mr Agbani hired a nanny to take care of Oluwa so Selena won't have to worry about him. Have I ever told you Selena is a graffiti artist? Well she spray paints walls, people's windows..especially those who double cross her. That girl is notorious!

"Told you I'd be the highest...again." Sihle says with a smirk.

"Ahh, English amanzi amancane. You can brag when you pass me in physics or something. That's if you do." I say walking towards the hallway.

"Lets bet then. If I beat you in both Physics and maths, you will give me one night with you." She says getting closer.

I give her a warning look and she backs up.

"Okay, I'm playing! You will just pay me a hundred bucks."

"Ayt bet. I guess we'll wait for our results."

"Sho. I'll see you tomorrow beautiful." She says winking at me.

LOL. If only she knew the last time someone called me beautiful. Sigh. Selena didn't even come to school today.
