"What!" Bimpe and I shouted concurrently as we moved closer to Jubilee and the ADS patients who had been clinging unto Jubilee since she arrived.

They turned to us in surprise.

"Did you just say you've dated ten guys?" I queried while opening my palms widely.

"And you're in which class?" Bimpe asked.

"Ss2," I replied before counting my fingers.

"What's your business?" Bella shouted and  my eyebrows rose.

"You should be asking yourself that question," Bimpe snarled, then I turned back to Jubilee who squeezed her face.

"So, aunty Jubilee, because you're our aunty now oo, you've dated ten guys? Do you change them every term nii abi what?"

She lifted her brows, "What do you mean?"

Bimpe replied, "At..."

Oju Igo cut in,"Here it is," she rushed to the table and dropped the snacks and drinks on the table while Bimpe and I shared a look.

Jubilee picked up the Sunny drink from the table, "You know my favourite, what's this one?" She snapped with raised eyebrows.

"I'm sorry, there was no Coke and this is a new drink and I know you love new things," she apologized while looking down.

Bimpe and I exchanged questioning looks.

"Just pray I'll like it, anyway, I need you to buy me a graph book," she brought out the money from her pocket and as Oju Igo proceeded to collect it, I snatched it from her.

"Is she your slave?" I questioned with irritation dripping in my voice.

Jubilee raised her chin, "Of course."

"What!" Bimpe and I shouted in unison.

"Isn't it obvious? She works as a maid in my house, if it's not because I injured my younger brother, do you think I'll be in this shirt you call a school let alone with my maid."

Bimpe shrugged, "And so? Your house is different from school."

"She's my personal maid, you can't dictate anything to me, so, will you please give her the money or do me the pleasure of buying it for me?" Jubilee snorted as she stood up with pride.

"You know what? Class!" Bimpe called out and the noisy class fell silent before shifting their gaze to Bimpe who was now in front of the class.

"This is a new term, and we all need to cooperate, first, if you have anything that you want to buy, bring the list now so Oju Igo would buy them."

Noise filled the air and my expression changed to a puzzled one, my mind was still in a surging perplexity when Bimpe walked back to me.

"What are you doing?"

She shrugged, "What does it look like?"

"What are you doing?" Jubilee queried on top of her voice.

"She's your maid right? So, let the whole class use her for today," Bimpe replied.

"But she's my personal maid, we pay her not..."

Bimpe cut in, "Abeg, shut up jare" Then she walked back to the front of the class, "Has anyone listed their stuffs?" She didn't wait to hear their response as she walked back to Oju Igo.

"You're going to buy everything, shebi you like working as a slave, let's..."

Jubilee cut in, "What's all this nonsense? You can't just come here and start ordering her around, you..."
