Rugged To The Core

Chapter 78

A/N: The following chapters are going to be extremely intense. We're talking real serious mature content. If you're don't want to read, skip chapter 78 and 79 but not 80. And aside from that, chapter 80 is a bomb in its on nonsexual way. But you'll just have to read to find out. Just thought I should warn y'all.

With that outta the way, chapter 78 begins....

"... and that concludes today's lecture and the overall topic." The teacher's conclusion was preceeded by the long-awaited sound of the bell tolling. It was the end of the period.

     The teacher gathered his belongings and exited the class. Students stood and began exiting the class just as some entered to see their friends and siblings.

"Lu, do you have your phone here?" Best suddenly asked from behind.

"Uh yeah." I replied, reaching into my bag to pull it out.

"Can I have it?" He asked. "I don't have mine here and I need to do something for my dad. It only requires me using my email."

I handed him the phone, eyeing TJ who seemed to be studying with one hand on his head, the other going through the SSCE Past Questions on his desk.

"We agreed we would go through Past Questions together guys... " TJ reminded us, eyes still on the books as he began writing.

"Guy, I dey come." Best replied, reaching out to touch his shoulder. "Mah just run this thing for my old man. (Let me just do this for my dad)."

"Me too." I added. "I'll be back, I have to go see Nana."

     Swiftly, I turned on my heels and scurried away. Science class was next so I didn't have to go far. I found Naomi with a girl by her side, hunched over looking as she punched her calculator. It seemed as though she was teaching her something. As I got closer, I realised that was the case.

"Now you know the difference from when work is done on a system and when it is done by a system." She concluded.

The girl smiled. "Yes, thank you very much."

Naomi waved her hand, her biro between her fingers. Then she spotted me. I noticed she had her geeky-ass glasses on.

"Hey, look at you. Professor Naomi..." I teased and she rolled her eyes.

"You promised you would tell me what you and your mum had done." She reminded me, gesturing for me to take my sit next to her. "Oya, as e dey hot..."

I had told Naomi about the beatdown my mother and I had given Zino the homewrecker. In typical Naomi fashion, she'd asked me to give her the details and to not leave anything out. And that's what I was here to do.

Grinning devilishly, I interlaced my fingers together on the desk and began.

"Serves her right!" Naomi responded, clapping.

I have to say, I had never felt more fulfilled about anything in my life than I did in that moment. It seemed Dad hadn't seen our handiwork just yet because he seemed normal, no doubt he would go ballistics when he found out. But instead of fear, I was actually expectant. The thought of my dad throwing a fit over his battered mistress was amusing.

"Guess what?" Naomi said, stacking her books up. She picked her bag up from the floor by her chair and began placing the books inside, one after the other. "I ran into your sasquatch boyfriend earlier." She said with a smirk.

I gave a toothy grin. "You did?"

She nodded. "He actually exchanged pleasantries with me and even started asking me things about you."
