BENEATH THE MASK

Chapter Four

Had this in my draft since i decided to publish it🌚2 updates in a day. I know I'm awesome.

Sophie's pov

It was so hard to keep my eyes open during class. Our maths teacher, Mr Adewuyi wasn't even tired. It's been an hour since we started and I was famished and tired. We were doing quadratic equations and everything he was saying, entered through the right ear and came out through the left ear.

Lily had gone to dream world. She didn't even wait for me.

I was scared of sleeping cause the man's eyes seemed to be on me every 2 seconds. Most people weren't even listening.

My attention diverted from him to the girl who just entered the class. Scratch that. Everyone's attention were on the girl.

She had this aura of confidence around her. She strutted into the class like one sexy model. The black heels she wore made a noise as she walked in. Wait holdup, who wears heels to class? The heels looked like it could buy me a house in banana island and have change for car. Maybe a Lamborghini.

That's how expensive it looks.

"And where are you coming from Miss Banks". Mr adewuyi said, interrupting the struttingsession.

She walked past him and sat down,"From outside".

She didn't even say sir.

"What were you doing outside? I'm sure you are aware that class is going on. Kindly leave my class". He went back to his laptop .

She hissed, picked up her Nike air backpack and strutted out of the class again.

Can somebody please press pause? Make I stand up to strut ni? Mahd o.

Mr adewuyi acted as if nothing happened and continued explaining.

Lily hissed, "Rubbish! !" And she went back to sleep.

When did she even wake up? Just one day of school and all this drama. What will na happen after I spend one semester? Drama at home, drama at school. Hiaaaa

______________

"That girl has problem". Lily said. We were in the empty canteen taking scoops of our ice cream. This was the last period before closing time and we weren't offering History so we came here to take few scoops of ice cream

Yess. I said ice cream. They had different flavours and toppings. When I saw it, I was like 'can I live here?'.

No, I didn't say it out loud. I refuse to embarrass myself on the first day.

"Which girl?" I asked. The vanilla ice cream with chocolate chips topping was the best.

She took a scoop of her chocolate ice cream and replied me, "The one that came during maths class. She thinks she rules the school cause her father is stinky rich. He donates 50 million naira into this school every 4 months".

"Wait what? 50 whattt?!" I dropped my ice cream on the table. Imagine my life with 50 million in it. Kai. 50 million can buy me a lot mehn.

"He owns an oil company, hotel and has many branches all over the world. He's good friends with my dad. But she's dumb. My brother as tasted everything about that girl"

"Brother? What did he do?". I asked just as they rang the bell.

"My brother uses girls and dumps them. Like, he acts like he likes them, sleeps with them and dumps them." She throws the empty cup inside a bin and continues, " He's now in a relationship with Regina. But, he doesn't like her. He enjoys collecting 'food', as he calls it, from more than one girl.

So the sexy god uses girls. Woowwww.....I wouldn't be surprised if he joins the list of STD patients. Maybe gonorreah

"Wow". We were walking on the field on the way to the car park since school was over.

Unlike my public school, they walked out of their classes in an orderly manner. I could sight the sexy god talking to some of his friend. I guess he noticed I was staring and he smiled and winked.

Butterflies...I could feel them.

Sophie don't. Please don't.

"Dudeee". She pushed me slightly,"You sure have a thing for staring at my brother. I know him like I know abc. It's better you stop now, or he will break you. Please and please, stay away from him". I nodded slightly and we walked in silence to the car park

Stay away. How can I stay away from someone that intriguing.

He uses girls Sophie. Don't be an idiot!!

Just focus on why you are here.

We stopped in front of a Rolls Royce. I knew it cause my Susan couldn't stop gushing on how she wants one.
When she was telling me she wants one, I was like ' I don't understand o'.

She thinks life is film where the girl will say she wants something, the bestfriend will na buy it for her.

Lmao, baby girl wake up.

"Here". She passed me an iPhone 11 (another thing Susan couldn't shut up about) and she said, " Type in your number so I can call you"

One chance. How do I tell her I don't have a phone? I can't even buy Nokia . My soap that finished 2 weeks ago, I haven't bought a new one.

I bowed my head down in shame, " I don't have a phone". All of a sudden, my worn out slippers looked beautiful to me.

"And why are you ashamed? You are my friend. Just don't say that to another SLA student. I'll see you tomorrow. Bye". She entered the car after giving me a brief hug.

I stood in that position for like 3mins.

I am weird. I can just stay in one position for more than 10mins.

The sky looked pregnant. And with the way the clouds were grey, I knew there was going to be a heavy downpour.

The journey to my house was going to be stressful cause I had to walk since i had no transport money

My friend is entering Rolls Royce and i am trekking. Haba

I sighed and walked into school. I had to pick up my bag from where I stupidly dropped it.

What if someone steals it?

Who would want to steal it abeg? All these rich rich people that are using their rich perfume to choke me.

I walked fast into the cafeteria and I, all of a sudden, wished the ground would open up and swallow me
