Images of Tomiwa's hair in the media

Tomiwa POV

" omo it's her hair of me ooo. Nice to me you Tomiwa. And a very big welcome to Dowen Academy, the home of none stop drama."

" thank you Emmanuella. It's nice to meet you and be here."

I said to the girl sitting directly inform of me. This all still feel so surreal to me, I was finally in Dowen academy, mingling with the one percent of the one percent. Me Towima Adesika, a common pupper, a simple orphan sitting at the same table with the sons and daughters of the rich and mighty. Damn! Can some please pinch me because I really want to believe I am in dreaming.

I was currently sitting at the table, yes!! The table were all the cute cuddly and friendly people who are in the good books of the teachers where seated. Like they said, if feel soo good. Back at my old school we didn't have the table, you can just sit were ever you want but I guess that does apply here. I had no idea Ebuka had front role tickets to this table and I didn't know this we're his friends. This people especially Kevin and Emanuella were like the power couple whom the school never fails to talk about. And what's more they were the head girl and boy of their set, I smile and squeezed my eyes screaming mental.

" are you okay? Is something wrong with your eyes?"

Chigoze ask me when he noticed me squeezeing my eyes so tightly instead of eating. I snapped it open real quick and looked at him with a weary smile. An Idea came to my head and instead of thinking it through I acted on impulse.  I closed my eyes again and used my left hand to starch it saying ,

" oh yea, something is wrong with my eye."

" oh really, let me see what's wrong"

" I can't take them out of you."

I said to him Before he could get up and get a look at my eyes. I place my thumb, index and ring finger under my chin, my bottom  lips in-between my teeth as I squinted my eyes and him.

Kevin and Lydia were the ones to snicker as they were trying to hold there laugher. Faruq on the other other hand didn't bother hiding it. He busted into laughing earning a few glares from the other table that was close to us. And Just like that the rest of the table joined and I smile at them. Chigozie Just rolled his eyes, a mocking grimace on his face as he said

" haha very funny, next time when you tell me something is wrong with your eyes, I will most delightfuly ignore you."

The laugher died down naturally and we all continued eating out food which was coconut rice and turkey with a bottle of sprite for me. Emmanuella and the gang had different soft drink to go with theirs as well.  the table was getting a little to quite but before I could speak Lydia who happens to be  the social prefect spoke.

" is it just me, or am I the only excited for DGT!"

Yeap that one is a shocker, I am not too surprised because Lydia seems like the only one keeping this table alive. She is such a chatter box so the role as social prefect soothes her perfectly, I also notice that Faruq is on the loud side as well, I won't be surprised if he is also a social prefect. From the way Faruq and Lydia keep throwing subtle glance at each other self, I think it safe to say they have a thing going on, that's if they are not in a relationship already.

" what's DGT?"

"Dowens Got talent. It's a competition introduced by our previous seniors and some great Aluminum of our school. There is this huge price money at the end of the competition and free scholarship to study any course of your choice within Nigeria."

My mouth was as wide opened as my eye. Did she just talk? If not because she introduced herself to me as Mercy I won't have known her name or the fact that she could talk. I have come to a conclusion that Mercy was the quiet on in the group, and her responding to my question took my by surprise, hence my surprised look. We talked and gisted for a while, and i got to find out they were all perfect, they all had the prefects-hip handover last week before I came and the only one who was not a prefect was Ebuka and Mercy.

The Bell rang signaling the end off lunch and we all eased out of the cafeteria one after the other. I and Ebuka headed for our technical class, Kevin and Lydia went for there art class, Chigozie and faruq went to the commercial class while Emmanuella and Mercy went to their science class. I am glad this school is spacious and reasonable enough not to muddle the classes up. Unlike HMP (Herbert Macaulay prep) my formal school where JSS3 and SS3 we're sharing the same class. Sigh that thing really irked me a lot especially when those JSS3 students talk back at me because we were sharing the same class.

" so Tomiwa, how do you like our school so far."

"Umm it's Ahhhhmazing. Better that I fascinated. Oh before I forget, your going to help me out because I have some catching up to do."

" well that's why I am here, come lets get to class we have Geography next and that woman does not play."

The rest of our classes when by in a flash and before I knew it, it was closing time. Funny how I wasn't looking forward to closing time because I was loving every minute spent here at my new school. Well the good new is I get to come back here tomorrow and that fact is just refreshing .

We were all at the monument of the school. I sat at the center while they all gathered around me like I was some kpop idol- which in truth, not brag I might be, have you heard my voice? Lol yeap I got to know more about them, they got to know that i am not the only child and I have an elder brother.  Hopefully they would get to meet him When he comes to pick me up. We were having a conversation on the maths class we all had today when Kevin spoke saying .

"Sooo how are you going to get home, when you came all by your self."

"I didn'--"

"Yea where you live is really far from here. Your lucky we are all SS3 student and we don't have to be on the Assembly all the Time. "

Chigozie said not letting me speaking as he was in support of Kevins statement. Great now the subject of conversation was how I would get home today. Before I got the change to speak, to remind them that I have an elder brother who was coming to pick me, kevin declared.

" you know what, all drive you"

"Urrr no you can't -Kevin- you don't don't have a driver's license or a car. "

"And that is why I will get my driver to drive her home instead. "

Ebuka said grinning so proudly like he just won a trophy. I raised an eye brown at him and he only smiled sheepishly before Chigoze spoke up.

"I have a better ideal, l'll walk you home"

"Ummm think again- gozie - my driving is way better than walking, so my driver and I got this cover "

"Well I'm uncovering it."

I rolled my eyes at them,  since they wouldn't let me speak I just  sat there under the school monument as they  kept on arguing back and front. 5minutes later I got a text message from my elder brother letting me know that he was outside the school gate.  I picking up my bag before I Bade them goodbye which instantly shut them up.

"Wait wait wait! where are you going?"

"Urrrr home"

I responded to Ebuka's question, and Faruq who had been quietly pressing his phone the whole time asked the next question.

"Wait! What so you mean home, how are you going to get there?"

"Oh my brother  is Driving me "

What!?!?!? 

The all said simultaneously and mercy who was mute throughout the whole argument as well decided to speaks up.

"Wait, so you had a brother that was coming to pick you up this whole time, and you didn't tell us? "

"What??  Its not like you guys gave me a Chance too. your guys arguement was totally adorable, unnecessary but adorable. "

I said with a slight chuckle and a smile resting on my face.Before I could leave  emma said something that made me give her a pointed look which was.

"Whao. I'm just really stoked that you have an elder brother. "

"Wait, You didn't think I was the only child did you? Besides I mention I have an elder brother. "

The all mumbled incoherently which proves that they thought i was an only child. I Heaved a sign and rolled my eyes at  them. Typical rich kid mentality I thought  before responding.

"Well I'm not, I have an elder brother and he is waiting for me outside. I gotta go, see you guys tomorrow. "

I said before finally taking my leaves going to join my elder brother in his car . Immediately I did so the first question that came out of my elder brother Temidayo's mouth was.

"Hey kiddo how was your first day at Dowen Academy aka the RichElite Academy?  "

"Ooh it was the bomb. Com "

I responded giggling. With that we took of to the mainland to start the second part of my day at Golden-Fray Catering Company.
