PHEBE

Chapter eleven.

           PHEBE'S POV.
I couldn't stand Patrick after what he did and Mr.Ahmed made it worse by pairing me with him. He nags me with everything he does and I have made it a point to always snub him during physics practicals. I simply carry out the experiments on my own and then leave the lab minus sparing him a glance.

It was time for break and I was super famished cause Mrs.Claire stopped me from having my breakfast saying I was finishing all the food in the house and yet
I was as good as useless. I hurriedly packed my books inside my locker and searched my bag for some money but it dawned to me that i was penniless. I just placed my head on my desk since I had nothing to do and my two cuties had disappeared to God knows where.

I felt someone slowly tapping my back and so I raised up my head only to find the nagging Patrick show casing his complicated jaws at me. I frowned instantly and made to place back my head on the desk but he instead sat on it.
"What" I spoke with sarcasm laced in my tone.

"Calm down, why the face?" he asked.

"There is a saying that goes that when  you go to Rome, behave like the Romans so am putting on this face because am being disturbed by an ape and so I will have to look like one" I spat with anger laced in my tone.The fool just chuckled and this made me furious.

"Awwwn, so your doing all that because of me right" he spoke whilst winking at me.

"Let me tell you something, if I had to do something for anyone it would be my sweet Phillip not someone with complicated jaws like you, excuse me." with that, I stomped out of the class moving aimlessly until I heard someone shouting my name. I turned around only to find a tall, cute girl with a slim stature waving at me. She is in my stream but I had never spoken to her.
What does she want from me?
I stopped in my tracks to look at her with my brows etched upwards.

"Hey, I am Amanda and I was asking if you could please help me with my math work cause am really stuck" she asked with puppy eyes.

"Hi, its okay with me but definitely not now maybe during free period" I replied and she had a sheepish smile on her cute face.

"Thanks dear,I even don't know what I was doing in the math class cause I was only seeing insect like figures on the board." I chuckled at her words.

"Math just needs concentration and series of revisions so you could be a pro at it." I spoke with seriousness laced in my tone.
I think I should become a motivational speaker right😊.

"Wow, I will do just that then but my problem is I hate the math teacher maybe when we get a new teacher for the subject, I will definitely enjoy the lessons and improve in the subject."she spoke with determination laced in her tone.

"Okay but then, learn to love what you do plus you will have to put that hatred of yours behind, love the teacher and you will find the subject falling in love with you and you will start doing just great before you know it." I spoke with a wide smile on my lips.

"Awwn, thanks for the advise, I think you had to be the principle of R.I.C." she spoke in a teasing tone and we both laughed.

The bell giggled stopping us from continuing with our chit chat.
"Thanks again and meet you during the free period."she spoke whilst smiling.

"Your welcome and see you then."I replied whilst moving to the class and she followed swiftly after me.

I entered the class only to see Grace putting her head down on the desk with Phillip patting her smoothly on her back. I was so curious to know what was wrong with her that i hurriedly ran to her desk.
Well, I have grown so close to Phillip and Grace that we do text and call each other daily.
Yeah, I know curiosity killed the cat but I can't help it.

"What happened?, Grace, what is wrong?, Who hurt you?" I asked in one breath. Phillip had a smirk on his lips but I ignored it.

"Grace, please talk to me." I pleaded with my puppy eyes which made Phillip to laugh vigorously and the Grace I thought was sick or hurt joined him. I was muddled at first but then it dawned on me that they had played a prank on me which really worked. I was so pissed that I went straight to my seat and settled with a thud.

The literature teacher Mrs. Robins who also happens to be our class teacher entered and the rowdy class became as silent as a graveyard.
We all stood up and all greeted her before taking our seats.

"I am good thank you, well I have noticed that ever since we resumed this term, this stream has no class representatives. So we're going to be fast and elect our leaders." she said.
The class became rowdy again.

"Please keep quiet" she yelled and we all kept mute.

"Get a piece of paper and write down the person you think would be best for the post both boy and girl." she spoke in a calm tone this time around.
I just ❤ this woman.

We all started doing what she told us and I wrote down Trancie and Brave's name cause according to me, they suit the posts since Trancie is always punctual and a cool girl and Brave is just her replica.

Mrs.Robins started collecting the papers and started reading out the names and I was caught off guard when I and well the nagging Patrick were announced the new class representatives.

"Excuse me Mrs.Robins, well am not interested in this, as in I am new here and don't think its fair since some of my colleagues have wanted this since forever" I spoke with concern laced in my voice.

"Well, Phebe, this is not all about being new here or not. Your colleagues have reasons as to why they chose you and I also see the abilities in you so dear I am not changing anything." she had a warm smile on her cute face that was contagious that I also joined in.

"Thanks ma." I said to her before placing my sitting apparatus down.
