There was a new girl that came that term. She came, in the middle of Geography, and I was tired from all of the topic on types of rocks that was being taught at that time. I wished we could go back to calculating Longitudes and Latitudes. Her name was Ivie.
Ivie was tall and slender and pretty, she was darker skinned than I. She had on a puffy hair, just as mine. It was braided, but I could tell natural hair from a distance. She sat at the empty desk just across. I flashed a smile.
My first impression of her was that she was weird. That same afternoon, while kissing Jacob she was knocking on the door of the classroom. We're kind of like used to the fact that people walked in on us but they did as quickly as they could to leave on time. She actually knocked on the door and said, 'I'm sorry. Can I come in?'
Jacob rolled his eyes. "I'm so sure she was excused" I laughed and drifted away from him.
"Don't be rude"
She wasn't looking into my eyes but I knew that she was a bit uncomfortable, probably hasn't seen people kissing before?
"Um, hi" she said. "I just wanted to ask you something"
"Go on"
"Please, where's the school store?"
I pointed and gave her the directions. She smiled and before I left she called me again.
"That boy, isn't he the head boy?" She asked shyly. I wanted to play dumb.
"What boy?" I pressed.
"The guy you were....um..."
"Oh, you mean the guy I was kissing?"
She nodded.
"Yeah that's the head boy. And my boyfriend too." I smiled, knowing that it made her more uncomfortable. Amebo. These are the kinds of people that easily irritate Sara, I thought.

The girl became increasingly weird. But just to be nice, I decided to keep talking to her and made her walk with us. And yes, she sure was irritating all of us. Especially when she tried giving her opinions in subjects we discussed during breaks in classes.
One afternoon, while missing out on lunch because lunch was beans and it irritated the life out of me, we stayed back in class, talking about what's been going on.
"Can't wait to see my baby play basketball today" I squealed in excitement. The girls rolled their eyes.
"Please, save us the drama" Sara said. "I have a meeting this afternoon" She bites her lips.
"You're such a whore" Yasmin laughs with mock disgust. And truly that's what she's been doing lately. Nevertheless I still worry about her sometimes, but she acts like she doesn't need it.
"Since we're talking about whores now, ask Hadassah what she did with her babe at the library yesterday" She smirks at me, golden eyes gleaming. I hate this girl, she can't just shut up for once.
They fix their attention on me. "I don't know what you're talking about"
"Well, we do"
"What did you do with him, Hadassah?" Ivie suddenly asks. We turn to stare at her. Excuse me?
"Well, I gave him head" I say confidently. She looked confused.
"What do you mean?" She says.
You've got to be joking. Did she want more details or she didn't genuinely understand?
"A blowjob?" I say, and to my surprise she still didn't understand.
"You mean she doesn't understand that you sucked hi-" Sara interjected but I cut in
