My days at laceville academy

Chapter fifteen

  
     (Selena's pov)
   I mutter curses mentally,as I slide on my blue skirt.I can't believe I would be going back to laceville,I hated that place with passion, when dad said he would withdraw me from the school I was on top of the world.I was an elite and I deserved to be in an elite school,my flight to Europe was cancelled at the last minute.I felt so devastated,and now I have to continue at laceville.
   "Hon"dad calls
  Only dad calls me that,it was a short form of honey.
   "Yes Dad,be down in a minute"I say and brush my long lashes straight, before putting on my nude lips gloss which went well with brown skin,lastly I use my $20,000 perfume on my uniform then I stare at myself in the mirror looking satisfied before going downstairs.
    Dad drops me at school,I wave at him as he kicks the breaks, everyone looks at me in surprise most especially the Juniors.
   "Snr Selena"they say as they rush to me.
   "We thought you left"one of them says and I smile.
   "Well guess what,I'm back"I say as they all hug me while chuckling.With that,you should know that I'm very popular in laceville.
   "Selena"Lola screams as she runs to hug me,I smile broadly.Lola was my closest friend in laceville and also my sitmate.
   "Babes afa na"I say as we both pull out of the hug.
   "I dey....what are you doing here"she asks still not able to control her excitement.
   "I change my mind"I say as she squeal"where is your sit'cause your sitmate is back baby"I say and her expression changes.
   "What?"I ask
  "Um. ...sel,I've got a new sitmate"she says and I told my arms and look at her.
    "Well.....tell her to leave"I say and she looks at me wide eyes
   "She's new,I can't just tell her to leave"
   "I'm your best friend girl"I say and walk over to her sit, trailing behind her.I pick up a red and black bag which supposedly belonged to Lola's new sit mate then I drop the bag on the dirty floor and sit beside Lola.
   "But sel she'll be hurt"Lola says and I look at her,get up and pick my bag.
   "Where are you going"she asks
   "To sit on the floor, it's obvious you don't want me"I say and turn back.
   "No...you can stay,you are my best friend after all,and chioma is just my friend"Lola says and I smirk.
   "You the best babes"I say and sit,then we start chatting.

  (Chioma's pov)
    I'm at a shop buying some snacks,I was damn hungry and I wanted to eat something before the assembly bell is rung.I suddenly sight kunle with a girl, I'd never seen him look that happy,he always wore a cold or a straight face,so I was kinda surprised.I stare at the girl intently,she didn't look familiar to me maybe she was a new student,but who starts school so late,I mean we were already writing our first test,well she had a lot of catching up to do.I was still watching them as I opened the cap of my coke,kunle wraps his hand around her and my heart clenches making me to gasp.Who is that girl?.I ask myself.Kunle doesn't really have much friends, it's ha to see him associating with people,so seeing him with this girl made me wonder, Maybe they are just good friends or maybe they are more than that.I swallow my saliva,as they intwine their fingers together and walk to the class.
   I get up almost immediately and walk to the class,I see the same girl sitting on my sit and my bag on the floor,I raise my gaze to Lola who quickly avoided it.
   "Why is my bag on the floor"I ask Lola bluntly.
   She ignores me which angers me the more.
   "Why did you put my bag on the floor?"I ask Lola again this time with a clenched fist.
