Dave's pov

"That girl is insane" I said, looking at my arm.

I left the toilet shortly after she ran away. I met amelia on my way,she looks beautiful on her school uniform, seems she purchased another one.

"Hey dave, what's up?,"

she asked smiling as she pecks me.

" Cool ,you?",I asked looking intently at her. she's a very beautiful lady. She's also my childhood friend but left the city to New York city.

"Good as ever.why are you here?," she asked me looking around .

"On my way to the class,and you?,"

"Waiting for my friends" she answered.

"OK ,meet me in class then." I said running off to the class.

I know Amelia very well,she would ask me to keep her company which I would not like to.since she came back from N.Y four years ago, she has changed so much.

I rushed into the class and all eyes were on me.The teacher stopped what she was saying to look at me, I immediately averted my eyes away from hers.

"you are late Dave"

"I'm sorry Mrs flora."I simply answered and rushed to my seat. of course she didn't utter any other word.

"Yes as I was saying .......................

Dennis POV

I was lost in thought about the angel I met earlier today,she's so cute and I believe she will be admitted to this class.

" Hey ,what are you thinking ?"

I heard Dave shout to my ear. obviously, because of the noise in the class.

" When did you come in?",

I asked back staring at him.

"Not so long,What's bordering you?"He questioned.

" huh,nothing," I said as I shifted my attentions to Mrs flora.

The principal came in and everywhere became quiet.The cute girl standing beside her.

"Huh,this crazy girl?,"

Dave muttered loudly making me turn over to him.

" Do you know her?",I asked .

"No ,yes ,actually..., I met her at the toilet."

He simply answered looking at her.

" Attention please",The principal said and we all looked up.

Ava's POV

I came in with the principal .They all focused their eyes on me.I became shy as so many eyes were on me.

"Her name is Ava Josh.She's new here. make her feel comfortable." The principal said and left .

I looked up, at the back and my eyes met with that idiot. He winked at me and I rolled my eyes and looked away.I also saw the guy I met earlier ,he smiled and I smiled back.

" There's no vacant seat at the front row,you can head to the back seats".The teacher said and smiled.

I noticed three vacant seats and went to the one at the extreme beside the window and sat down. students were still staring at me and I wondered why. Why would they stare at me like that?, ...

Immediately a girl came in, she looked hot and sexy,she walked up to me and faced me.

All eyes were on us, especially on me again .

"Excuse me ,can I have my sit?,".

The girl asked breaking the silence .

" Huh?,here?,"

I asked her.

"yea,that's my seat you're sitting on"

she replied calmly.

"Ooh sorry" .

I apologized and shifted to the middle and she sat down, brought out her ear piece and her iPod and faced the window.

"She's weird"

I murmured and face the class,and looked up to the teacher as she commenced her teaching.

The teacher left the class later, I brought out a novel from my bag. A girl came in shortly. she looks nice on her school uniform. , with her short black hair. she's beautiful and obviously from a rich family too. I wondered if there were poor students in this school anyway. she came in and sat beside me.

" Hi ,she greeted.

"Hello ,I replied"

" I'm Ann,you?"

"I'm Ava."

"Nice to meet you. you're the new girl,right?,she asked.

"yes I am." I replied .

"you're welcome." she said giving me a smile. I faced what i was doing .

The bell rang twice ,students trooped out.

"Where are they going to?", I asked Ann.

" To the hall. it's the bell for an important announcement. you wanna join?"

"yea,thanks."I said and we followed the trail of students moving outside. I looked at the girl sitting beside me, she was looking outside, I wondered if she heard the bell. You got to mind your business anyway. I left with Ann.

We walked into the big hall and sat down. The principal came out with a microphone and started the announcement.

"Good morning students"

"Good morning Mrs James"

"we are here on another section, as you all know ,this section is a section for the sport's day. I believe you all know the list of games to be conducted" he said .

Every one clapped.

she continued as they calmed down.

"The school board had made a decision on the case of basketball to make team white function on the oncoming competition." She said. Everywhere became quiet ,and I became confused.

"I know you all might be wondering why this great school has been without the team for so long, we want them to perform this section" she continued...

still on Ava's POV

"I have a question Mrs James" a girl said.

"I'm listening " She replied.

"I thought the team was banned four years ago, why then do you want them to compete this year?"She asked.

Some students nodded quietly. I looked on ,watching the drama as it unfolds .

" The school board have decided and concluded to make them compete so they were given three days to elect their leader and also to summit the names of the basketball players if not ,they will no longer compete anymore." she concluded and everyone began to murmur.

"Another announcement here is..,....... after the upcoming event,there would be a basketball challenge with the prestigious high school ." She said.

And this time , everyone cheered up.

"Make us proud as you used to,thank you". She concluded and another round of applause was heard.

Everyone despair and left the hall.I joined Ann and we left to our class.Ann just sat down reading a book maybe a novel,I lay down on my desk.some students were out on breaks and I felt very lonely.

" Hey" someone called out behind me, I turned and it turned out to be the guy that led me to the principal's office earlier today.

"Do you mind me showing you around?", he said.

I smiled and stood up immediately , and joined him.

" So now that we are getting along,can you tell me your name?"he asked as we walked down the stairs.

"Ava ,you?"

"Dennis.so.....can you tell me about yourself?",he asked again and I shrugged, I'm not in the mood to talk now.

" what do you want to know?,"I asked hoping to shut him off.

"Don't you wanna tell me?, alright. We are heading to the library now." He said and I nodded and followed behind.

We got in to a very big building, I looked on in admiration.,the library is surely big and well organised,few students were reading ,I looked at Dennis, he was looking at me, as soon as I met his eyes ,he averted them and looked else where.

"This is really big,"I exclaimed looking at the shelves.

"The library" He said , as if I'm blind.

"I can see that,"I said as we walked to the desk and sat down.I got up quietly and walked to the series of books on the shelf and picked one titled "the Adventures of the twins by Queen bella",flipped through few pages and went back to my seat opposite Dennis who was obviously watching me in a closer look.

I don't know why he keeps staring at me as if I am on the wrong cloth. precisely, I was not given uniform so I'm on mufti and I wore one of my best clothes to school, I don't see any reason why he should keep on staring. I overlooked it and sat down.

" Do you read her books?",he finally asked me still staring.

"Bella's books right?,"

I asked still focused on the book.

" Yes" he replied.

I nodded and mumbled.

"I read them a lot, so many of them."

"Really ?" He asked again.

" yes ,"the lost love ",her very first novel,it's based on traditions, culture and deals with myth. ..

"Then ,another one,em ...what's the name again?,yes revenge."

He kept nodding and I continued.

"Another book i love is The reunion and pains of hadiza by king Abel. I really love his books too" i added

" It's very interesting .I've read it twice and I'm hoping to read it again,but I think Isabella (in love with a mermaid) is more interesting". He said

"sky's books?Nope ,because it contains mystical powers or what?,I prefer nature. A novel which is real .It deals with facts of life.I mean for example " The lost love ",it contains our early traditions and cultures.It deals with facts and reality of life.That's the novel I would always love to read. And pains of hadiza, it educate the society on how to behave and it was centered on human trafficking, child neglect and child abuse,i so much love it" i said

" Wow! I love king abel's books too, he's an amazing author. I learnt a lot from PAINS OF HADIZA" He said as i flip into the first page..

Seems this guy wants to challenge me ,I just started humming and shaking my head, almost forgetting that I'm in the library.

"Now you sound like a traditionalists. Can we proceed?,I hope you don't tend to read this book here?",he asked after watching me for a while.

"Nah.But not without borrowing this book ".I answered and stood up .I walked straight to the counter and greeted a lady, perhaps she's in charge of the library.

"Can you lend out this book for like ....three days?,I asked her.

" Sure .sign" She said bringing out a thick long note and showing me where to sign.

"Thanks ",I said and smiled.

We walk out of the library.

" Now let's go over to the garden"

"Garden?,I would love to."

We've gone to the library ,field ,basketball Court, volleyball ,music house,halls and so many places that i would love to stay if i have the time later .I must say the school is really big.Now we are walking back to the class.

He stopped and I looked at him immediately.

" What's wrong?", I asked still looking strangely at him.

"I'm hungry ,can we go over to the cafeteria? ,he mumbled.

"Seems I'm also hungry ,I didn't eat much today". I told him.

" Yea ,let's go.

Amelia POV

I and my friends were in the cafeteria discussing some random girl's stuff.I noticed Doris wasn't paying attention, she was probably staring at something absentmindly.

I traced her eyes to Dennis and that new girl.

"Hey,are you alright?", I asked her bringing her back to her senses. I look at her eyes and I could see she was hurt,there was this angry stare she had on the new girl.Doris is my best friend.

" I love Dennis too much,I've tried to make him happy and see me as his lover,but just a day,the new girl became close to him." She said almost crying. I pitied her.

I held her hands and she stared into my eyes.she has tried and Dennis holds her only but a friend.

"Look Doris,they might be together but I don't think they like each other"

"What do you mean you don't think they like each other?,why should they even be this close? She snapped and rolled her eyes.

"Look ,we are going over to them right now".I shouted and stood up.
