We're at the assembly ground and it is so noisy. The teachers are not even doing anything to keep students quiet they are just gossiping at the back. Mtcheww.

"Good morning students" A tall bald man with thick Igbo accent mounts the stage, he's the principal.

Let me explain why there is a stage, we do assembly in a hall and there is a stage there. End of explanation.

Yeah, I'm not so good with explanations. Sorry!

"Good morning Mr Okafor" All the students reply as if they're under a spell.

"Today we will be appointing prefects and so in no particular order, they will be called out" he says.

He starts calling but I zone out till I hear him say sports prefect.

"Our sports prefect from now on will be Tyrone James"

We all clap and cheer as he mounts the stage to receive his badge.

"Assisting him will be David Samuel"

Another round of applause.

"Science laboratory prefect will be none other than Abimbola Adenuga"

We clap loudly as she mounts the stage literally glowing with pride.

"Assisting her will be Avery Adebayo"

Another round of applause.

"Our social prefect from now on will be Ayomide Adeojo"

We cheer him on as he goes on stage.

"Assisting him will be Temitope Sobowale"

We clap loudly and cheer her on.

Other positions are called out.

"Our health prefect will be Diane Kingsley"

We clap as she goes on stage.

"Assisting her will be Aisha Hassan"

Another round of applause.

"I'm so nervous" Anita whispers to me.

"Don't be, you'll be SP for sure" I say smiling at her.

"Our Assistant Senior prefect will be none other than Antonio Anita"

A loud round of applause is heard round the hall as she mounts the stage.

I wonder how she feels she really wanted to be SP but if she's not who will it be.

"Without further ado. It gives me great pleasure to say that our Senior Prefect is Aaron Adenuga.

Who is that?

Bimbo never told me she had a brother. I stare at him in awe as he climbs the stage. He's handsome words can't express this level of beauty he looks very mature for his age and I love his smile.

"Any words?" the principal asks him.

"I'm honoured to be given this responsibility and I promise that I will serve Lethbridge High to the best of my ability and make a positive mark in everyone's life for as long as I'm here. Once again thank you" he says.

His eyes are sensuous and radiant like pure diamond which captures every nerve in my mind. His body is firmly-built like a knight waiting to rescue me in his strong arms.

Seriously Naomi, are we really treading down this path again! Mental face palm.

Everybody claps and cheers loudly except me I couldn't clap or move I was too stunned by whoever that guy was.
