I sip my smoothie, while chewing gum and walk closer to Damilola with Betty and Sharon behind me. Damilola shudders in fear, and the huge saliva she gulped was evident.

Is it weird that I love seeing her like this? In sheer trepidation! "Erm- uh, senior Megan, you're looking, erm...demure-"

She calls me senior whenever she's afraid, and fortunately, her useless backup isn't here with her. It's been long I've seen this coward side of Damilola. All that confidence she was starting to build up, I'll crush all of them today. I'll teach her a big lesson she'll never forget, that when she sees Ivan coming left, she'll turn right and vice versa.

"Will you shut up!" I snapped at her, eyeing her up and down like the dirt she is. "You gutter girl, do you really think I'll let you snatch my boyfriend, under my nose?"

"No...no..no, t-that's not what I'm doing at all. You're misunderstandi-"

"Misunderstanding what? It's very clear that you have feelings for my Ivan! Are you mad? You no dey fear face?" I questioned, walking closer to her, while she backed away in fear.

"Are you trying to struggle him with me? Eh?!" I pushed her to the ground in anger. She covered her face in fear as tears wells up in her eyes.

"I-I'm not- tr-ying t-o do that-" Her voice became cracked and pitched, as snot slides down her nose.

"Nasty girl! You're not even Ivan's type, because you're fat!" I opened my smoothie cup, and spill the content on her head, all the way down to her uniform. Then I bent down to her level, squeezing her jaw with my artificial nails, while she yelps in pain.

My gaze falls on the box she was hiding behind her back. "What's that?"

She rapidly shook her head, "No-nothing."

"You're lying to me abi?" I yelled at her, standing up and giving her a kick under her abdomen. She gagged, holding her stomach tightly in agony. "Betty, Sharon!" I snapped my fingers at them, and they understood my order.

"Megan, please, let's not do this-"

"Do you want to join her?" I questioned Betty, who was behaving like the coward she already is. "After all, you both come from the same background- scholarship." Betty's face dawned in realization, and she lowered her head in shame.
"You should thank your stars I'm even allowing you hang out with me. I don't normally vibe with people in your level! My friend do what I asked you to do, before I kick you back to the pit you derived from."

"Give me the box jare!" Sharon bent down to grab the box, but Damilola kept resisting. That made Sharon slap her across the face, and Betty snatched the box from her roughly. "Useless girl."

Betty hands me the box she snatched from Damilola- it was chocolates.

"So this is the chocolate Joy was asking you about? Did you think I didn't hear you guys? I heard everything, and I noticed how you left the class just after Ivan did!" Damilola became sweaty, her face was red and scrunched up.

"So, you've started buying gifts for my boyfriend? Na wa oo," I laughed, clapping my hands in shock. "Betty, Sharon, raise her up from the floor and hold her hands up in the air, now!"

"P-please, have mercy... please senior Megan-" Sharon and Betty did as I asked, raising Damilola up.

They held her hands up in the air, while she cried and pleaded with me in tears and snot.
