It was one usual Monday afternoon, the maths class was in session and Osas was not paying attention instead she was distracting other students and the teacher noticed

He didn't want to divert the class attention to the notorious student in class but she kept pushing and making noise, eventually he had to call her out for being a nuisance

"Osas! Do you mind sharing with the class what is amazing you at the back seat"

"Huh! Nothing is going on here sir"

"Oh really! Good so can you repeat what I just said"

Someone whispered to her
"Pythagoras theorem " she shrugged

"You will stand up when am talking to you miss"
She sluggishly stood up and rolled her eyes

"Can you explain to us what Pythagoras theorem means"

"I was just about to ask you to explain better coz I didn't really understand what you were saying "

"Oh really! At what point did you miss it "

"From the very beginning sir" her friends chuckled at the back

"Oh then you must understand the SoH CaH ToA principle because that's how I explained the theorem and I remember I asked more than twice if it was understood and everybody said yes including you"

"Oh I did! I guess I just have to revise later"

"Yeah you should " she went back to her seat

"Will you get up my friend who asked you to sit down" the teacher yelled at her

"But sir...."

"Don't try to play smart with me young lady. You are going to explain what you know about today's class"

"Ah! Sir .... I just told you I don't really understand " she threw her hands in the air

"So what does Soh cah Toa mean"

"Which one is that "

"I just explained it few seconds ago if you were paying attention you would be able to say something about it "

"Sorry sir I can't remember "

"Hmm! Okay then call one of your friends to bail you out. One of those you were chit chatting with"

Osas took one good look at her clueless friends and shook her head, knowing  her circle she's very certain none of them can answer the question

So she called the most brilliant girl in class sitting in front with her nerdy glasses hanging on to every word the teacher says

"Grace Ibinabo, would you like to answer the question "

Grace turned to look at Onome
They barely even talk so how come she's referring to her as a friend

"Oh I see!" Mr Silas fold his arms together
"Ain't you just so smart Osas, you now want Grace to answer the question abi "

"I mean we are not even friends " grace muttered softly but everyone heard her and that triggered Osas

"You know who I was referring to when I asked you to call your friend to bail you out but you traveled all the way to the front desk to find your savior"

"I don't want to waste your time mr Silas " Onome said eventually already tired of being the mockery of the class

"You should have thought about that before you disturbed my class. I'd like to see your notes "

Onome's jaw dropped at the question
She doesn't have a note, she hasn't even been jotting anything at all

She signaled to her friend to pass her note and her note was barely complete as well but mr Silas was watching her every move and he knew she had already swapped notes so there was not point
