A Drop In The Ocean

Part 10

She went to the call icon and tapped it and dialed Emeka's number, she drifted in to her thought and didn't realized when he busied it and called back, she was snapped out of it when her phone started vibrating in her hand, she saw the incoming call and it was, "My love" calling and she received it.

"Hello sweetheart!", greeted Emeka.

"Hi my love! Happy birthday!", she answered.

"Thanks sweetheart, I wish you are here to celebrate with me, I miss you"

"I miss you too"

"So what present do you have for me?"

"You will know when we see"

"Hmmmm, hope is what I have in mind"

"And what do you have in mind?"

"You my love.... I want you... I want to make love to you.... I want to show you how much I admire and cherish you... you are so beautiful.... You are all I want and I don't want to look elsewhere", he said softly and Nonso felt some sensual feeling as she dreamt about them together in that manner. She loves him so much and doesn't want to lose him to another but on the other hand she doesn't want to lose her virginity as well, she really needs to be careful because the way she was feeling at the moment, she could have succumbed to her arousal if she were with him.

"We will talk later my love; lest someone sees me here"

"Ok", he quietly said, "I love you"

"I love you too", she responds and end the call.

She wondered if Mr. Nnadi will still be coming to the class after all that has happened. If he does how will she face him? She has to go back to the class anyway, she can't miss lesson because of him so she hurried back. As she enters the classroom, she saw Nonye's friends nudged her, she looked at her while going to her seat, their eyes met and she could see fear and hatred in them, she smiled at her and she immediately looked away. She overheard them asking her why she was so quiet and behaving unusual. Mr Nnadi walked in holding a fat cane in his right hand and some books in his left and the class prefect hit his desk three times and everyone stood up to greet him, "gooooood afternoon sir!", they chorused.

"Sit down!", he told them and placed the cane against the wall by the side, he went to the locker at the center which was placed in line with the board as it faces it and dropped his books, it's definitely not Nonso's locker but it's next to hers. He went to the board and wrote 'NEWTON'S LAWS OF MOTION' and turned back facing them, "stand up!", he pointed at Nonso and she did, she already knew the reason for her standing, "where is the handset?", he moved closer to her, "I said where is the handset?", he repeated himself when Nonso didn't answer and she still remained mute. "you come here!", he shouted pointing at John at the back and he scurried to him, "search her locker", he told him and John went straight to her, she made way for him as she stood aside. He opened it and started bringing out everything he sees one after the other, when he brought out a lip gloss and powder, Mr. Nnadi gestured him to bring it to him, "continue!", he told him after he hand them to him and he scampered back to continue with his search. Mr. Nnadi shook his head, "You also came to school with makeup", he told her.

"Sir I couldn't find any handset here", said John.

"Have you bring out everything in there?"

"Yes sir"

He went closer and looked in, "I see!", he exclaimed when he saw that it was empty, "check her bag", he told him and he took it from the back of her seat where it was hanged and searched but he still couldn't find it.

"Where did you hide it?", he turned to Nonso as she silently stares at him, "go and kneel down there", he said pointing outside and Nonso went and knelt down. "where are you going?", he asked John as he was about leaving.
