I still can't believe I was asked to tutor Isabella. I'd rather do anything other thing than spend a whole forty five minutes with Isabella Nwankwo.

The girl was rude and so full of herself. She looked like an angel but actually a devil in disguise.

Today was Friday and it was almost break period already. I didn't talk with Bella yesterday since I spent most of the time looking for her.

The bell rang, meaning it was time for break.

Yepee!

"so are you really going to teach Isabella?" Stephanie asked. She was my seat partner and also my new friend.

She was the twin to Joshua. For some ridiculous reason, people found him handsome. And Josh liked Isabella a lot.

Don't judge me, I'm just observant.

"I have to" was all I said while watching people rush out of the class.

Tayo smiled at me before he walked out of the door with Daniel.

I smiled sheepishly forgetting Stephanie was still with me.

"Those people aren't good for you. Trust me" and by those people she means- Isabella, Tayo, Daniel and Sandra. "I just hope you're not beginning to catch feelings for Tayo, you don't want to get yourself involved with those people". She left before I could even say anything.

I still can't understand why she hates them so much, Bella in particular.

I know Bella was rude and sassy but Stephanie's hatred had a story behind it. And I plan on hearing that story.

And by the way, her brother is head over heels for Bella so I shouldn't be the one she should be warning.

With the class being scanty I turned around to see Bella mindlessly flipping through the pages of her note.

I took the opportunity to approach her before she would disappear like yesterday.

I took my books and went over to her seat.

"get lost" she spoke before me.

"but Mr. Kofi said-"

"I don't care what your further maths teacher said. I don't need a tutor. I'm doing fine on my own, thank you" she cut me off with a dismissing tone.

"I'm only trying to help you, but if you keep up with your sassy and toxic attitude you'll die lonely". Okay, I didn't realize I was pissed off until I said that,

She shot me a death glare and she was obviously flabbergasted that the new girl was talking to her in that manner.

She stood up and we were facing each other. Eyeball to eyeball.

Now I could see the resemblance. She had eyes as big as mine and our nose and lips were pretty much the same.

Tayo said I looked and talked a lot Bella but knowing Tayo, he joked about everything so I didn't believe him.

"you're trying to help me? Oh so now I look like some charity case. If you're looking for people to help, there are millions of orphans and beggers out there" she was more pissed than I was but I couldn't help but feel more insulted and foolish for even trying to help her.
