I  put my maths note into my school bag. The last classwork had been marked and I could already see improvements.
Benita and Rachel have been supportive and I hope for better days with the coming of a private tutor.

I was outside the class waiting for Benita  and Rachel. The door was still filled with students coming out. I just waited patiently for them to arrive Rachel and Benita finally came out holding hands.

We all walked towards the gate. "The sun today is something else oo"Benita said in a laughable manner.

"My sister I wonder what Nigerians have done again" Rachel commented.  We all laughed. 

Benita didn't stop making jest of Amaka and Nancy."The other day it was Amaka that was singing today it is Nancy talking. This term they will surely give up being nuisances  in school. By the time Mr. Kunle finishes  with them" Benita mocked.  

I hugged them and kept  waving at them.  As soon as I got into the  car the driver drove off.

  I was walking downstairs to go and wait for my private tutor .

"Good evening ma"  I greeted as soon as I sighted her.  I was already at the veranda  of the house. In the last ten minutes I had been eagerly waiting for her arrival. She looked young and beautiful.  She wore a colorful ankara gown with a sandal to match.  She walked elegantly.  She beamed at me.
"How are you dear?"
" I am fine ma.  Welcome ma."  I led her to my study for the lesson.

We were first doing general introductions.

"Well I am miss Angela Okolo I will  be your private tutor. 
Feel free to ask questions if you don't understand.  Do you understand? "

"Yes ma"I answered.

The rest of the lesson was very lively. She must be a born teacher. Her teaching pattern was quite unique and exceptional.

I  wasn't happy she was already leaving. 

" Ma, I really enjoyed your lesson" I commented her.

"Oh dear am happy you did that's why I was employed".

I was beginning to love this  tutorial  more than ever. While she was teaching, she tried to explain every thing in a simplified manner .

"Bye ma"  I said as I opened the gate.
"Bye Edna".  She walked through the gate.

I did all my assignments after  supper.

Dad kept hyping himself "Yes, I  know what's good for my daughter ".

"You are enjoying your teacher. My  dear dear bring good results home oh" My mum said

I was happy that my dreams of coming out best was gradually  coming to fulfilment.  I slept off shortly after I hopped into my bed.

I was going to the bedroom to prepare for Saturday lessons. The  timetable  was given during the week. 

We left home quite early.  Mum as usual made sure I arrived thirty minutes to the time.
they will soon give you punctuality award.

I brought out my notebook to study until it was time for the lesson. Benita and Rachel were yet to arrive. Lately I was turning to a nerd. I  played less and read more than ever before.

Chima's entrance into the class made everyone including Mr.  Shittu one  our subject teachers  for the day  to laugh.

"What is this? "Mr Shittu said pointing at Chima whose face was  now drained of its colour.

He was putting on a blue top and small short. Apparently the size of David my six years old cousin brother.
Chima was a carefree boy. He liked to crack jokes in the  class at the slightest opportunity.

"  So young man can you go back and dress properly" Mr Shittu commanded. It was then that I  took in his dressing  completely . He hung a small bag across his chest.  A pair of pink socks and white sandals and a yellow head warmer.

The lesson continued thereafter. We had lessons till 1pm and then I was taken home by the driver. 

*****

In no time my parents would back from work. Dinner was now  ready.  My parents were now home.

We all sat as one big family to have our dinner.

I  was back in my room now. I looked at my wall clock. It was hung on the wall in my room.
It was just 9:09pm. I picked up my phone to check my social media accounts.
Before I  went to bed.
