Bimpe pouted as she weilded her cutlass and Bimbo quickly moved backwards.

"Do you want to kill me?" Bimbo asked playfully and Bimpe laughed.

"Snr Abel will just be doing cheating anyhow. See where they gave S class the part that doesn't have grass because his girlfriend is there. Its not fair oo" Bimpe said as Bimbo burst into laughter.

"I didn't think he would that bias" Bimbo said playfully as she glanced at Jeremiah who was talking with Gbenga.

"Snr Gbenga na talkative. He has been talking to Snr Jeremiah for like ten minutes and Snr Jeremiah has only nodded once to show that he's listening" Bimpe said as Bimbo laughed.

"I still wonder how they became best friends" Bimpe added as she bent down to start cutting her portion.

Recently, the school claimed to have found to how to help the students expend their energy and keep the school clean at the sane time and so labor day was created and it took place once in a month. The bushy part of the school were cut down by the students.

"I want a boyfriend like Snr Abel" Bimpe whined and Bimbo smiled without saying anything. Bimpe turned to glance at Bimbo and seeing the sombre expression on the latter's face, she chuckled as she also bent down to start cutting.

Bimpe didn't know how she did but the cutlass landed on one of Bimbo's toes and the latter let out a shriek attracting everyone's attention as blood flowed out freely.

"What's going on?" Jeremiah asked as he broke through the students who had crowded over Bimbo. His eyes widened as soon as he saw Bimbo's bleeding toe.

"Gbenga, please get me a first aid box" Jeremiah rather calmly as he walked towards Bimbo was already seated on the ground.

"Get me a bottle of water" Jeremiah said as he bent down. Someone stretched a bottle of water and he grabbed Bimbo's legs closer and removed her slippers.

Bimbo hissed is pain as Jeremiah poured water over her bleeding toe. Jeremiah turned to her seeing her hiss in pain and Bimbo quickly pursed her lips as Jeremiah continued to pour water on her toe to stop the bleeding.

Gbenga soon arrived with a first aid box and everyone could only watch as Jeremiah wore white gloves and applied spirit to Bimbo's toe and bandaged it.

He removed the gloves as Bimpe helped Bimbo to stand up tears in her eyes.

"I'm so sorry I didn't know" Bimpe apologised as Bimbo smiled at her.

"Are you crying? Its nothing serious. See, I'm fine" Bimbo said as she wriggled out of Bimpe's hold and moved to wear her slippers and suddenly lost her balance. She almost let out a yelp when someone grabbed and steadied her.

Bimbo turned to see Jeremiah holding her with a slight frown on his face. It was the first time she was seeing such an expression on his face. She froze as Jeremiah's fingers stroked the back of her neck.

"If you can't walk well let Bimpe hold you" Jeremiah said as he walked away leaving Bimbo dazed for a minute.

"What was that?" Bimbo asked as she remembered the sparks that coursed through her body when Jeremiah stroked her neck.

Bimbo rubbed the back of her neck as she turned to look at Jeremiah who was back to talking to Gbenga.

"What the hell was that?" Bimbo whispered as Bimpe blinked her eyes.

"What is it?" Bimpe asked and Bimbo smiled and shook her head as she staggered towards a seat and sat down.

She stared at her classmates as they cleared her portion. Bimpe was clearing both hers and her own portion. She folded her arms as her eyes drifted towards Jeremiah again.

Gbenga seemed to have disappeared and it was just Jeremiah leaning against the tree. For some reason, Bimbo suddenly thought that he looked really lonely. He seemed to turn at that very moment and Bimbo's eyes widened as she quickly turned her face while biting her lips.

Why it did it feel like she was caught stealing meat?

She lowered her head and raised it again after a while to glance at Jeremiah. Someone had brought him a chair in that small amount of time and he was already seating down.

She played with her fingers and the edges of her house wear till the labour finished. With Bimpe as her support; they both trudged to class with other students and as they got to class; they saw a commotion.

"What do you think you are doing?" Sewa asked as she raised her eyebrow while Dorathy tried to open her mouth to say something.

"Don't" Sewa said as she raised her hand upwards to stop Dorathy from talking.

"Don't talk just in case you spit in my face" Sewa said as the students burst into laughter.

"Nobody is asking you guys not to play but even if you are going to, can you play around more reasonably? With maturity?" Faidat asked as Dorathy swallowed her saliva.

"And what happened to your excuse me? You just pushed and she almost fell if not because she held the pole and you had the guts to say you were playing?" Ing asked as she followed her arms.

"Are those two holes in your head really working?" Ing asked again. A lot of people thought that one would have it the worst if you messed with Sewa but with Ing; she was a total altogether.

"What if she fell down? She hit her face or her arm and it gets dislocated? Do you think you can take responsibility?" Ing asked as she ran her hands through her hair.

"If you guys are going to be stupid, its okay but can you not put everyone in trouble or cause anyone harm with your stupidity? Its very annoying" Ing said as Farouq walked towards the girls.

"Looking at you guys alone irritates me and I feel like puking" Sewa started as Farouq chuckled.

"That's okay girls, drop it" Farouq said as Faidat chuckled.

"Thank your stars because I really want to push you so that you'll easily know how it feels" Faidat said as she walked into their class. Ing and Sewa followed while Jemimah continued staring at the duo as Farouq grabbed her arm and hauled her into her class as he turned to face Paul and Dorathy.

"Do look at where you are going next time. That's why we have eyes. To see" Farouq sad as he walked into the class.

Dorathy clenched her fists before bursting into a race. Paul sighed before running after her.

"Dorathy!" He yelled but the latter didn't stop as she continued running.

Paul soon caught up with her and Dorathy burst into tears and Paul tried to comfort her.

"Its okay. Don't cry" Paul said as he tried to wipe her tears.

"What did I ever do to them? I really didn't see her. I didn't see her and I know I pushed her hard but why would they all gang up against me?" Dorathy asked as Paul pursed his lips.

"Its okay. Don't mind them. You don't look pretty when you cry" Paul said playfully and Dorathy folded her arms.

"It was more like they were taking some kind of revenge on me"
