ANNA WAS WALKING ALONE along the school hall when Dami suddenly appeared at her front,she turn around to walk away but he stopped her

"Anna stop"Dami said stopping her from walking away "I'm sorry,you shouldn't stop talking to me because of what happened"

"I shouldn't stop talking to you Damilola?! My parents found out I left the house and now they see me like another person,I lost their trust because of you"Anna said sniffing really trying hard not to cry

"You should understand"

"Understand what?! I felt guilty for what happened,my parents has never look me with so much look of disappointment,I felt lost I felt like... I don't know I'm not just happy about what I did"Anna said a tear escaping her eyes

"Come here"Dami said hugging Anna "I'm sorry about what happened and I pray it doesn't repeat itself,that doesn't mean you should stop talking to me, I'm your boyfriend remember"

"I just needed time to process everything,it was just too overwhelming and I couldn't think straight"Anna said and Dami rub her back

"I'm sorry sweetheart please,you shouldn't stop talking to me because of that we came a really long way"Dami said and Anna nodded wiping away the tears in her eyes

"I love you"she said and Dami eyes went wide before smiling widely

"I love you too"he said and Anna smiled "so does that means you're going to stay with me forever and you're mine?"he asked and Anna nodded happily

"I'm yours"

"You're mine"Dami said in a possessive tone before leaning over to kiss her

*******

"Sometimes I wonder how Jonathan is dating that girl"Anna heard one of her classmates says when she was walking back to her class and stopped immediately leaning on the wall to eavesdrop

"I do wonder it too and Anna allows her friend to date her brother,she must really like them"the other said and the first laughed

"Do you think Anna has a say on who Jonathan wants to date,she just have to accept it"the first one said and Anna wondered who among her friends is dating Jonathan and why they decided to keep it from her

"Is true,I still don't understand how a fine boy like Jonathan every girls dream boyfriend will just stoop so low to date Rejoice,that fat ugly girl"the second one said and they laughed making Anna to cover her mouth immediately,how can her best friend be dating her twin brother behind her back without telling her

"That girl that's the only thing helping her is her skin colour, she's not beautiful with that her ugly hippopotamus body,if I'm the one that's fat like that I won't eat for a whole year"on hearing this Anna got angry and appeared in the midst of the two girl,though her best friend have kept a secret from her that doesn't give any of the girls the right to body shame her

"Look at you that's talking about someone's body,ugly skeleton like you that's why no one ever asked you out because you're too ugly to look in the eyes"Anna said angrily and the girl gasp

"How dare you call me ugly?!"the girl said getting pissed up

"Oh is there any other one here that look like a chimpanzee like you,have you ever see your nose,do you know you look like an ape wait! Are they your family?"Anna said and the girl got really pissed

"Anna better respect yourself before I use mouth to wash you"the girl said and Anna laughed

"Is come o! Me Diana? Use mouth wash me? With which mouth? That one that's full of  STD from sucking old man's dick"Anna said and the other girl charge forward

"What did you just say to my friend?"the girl asked angrily

"Oh monkey you're here to help your fellow chimpanzee"Anna said wrapping her hands across her chest ready to fight

"Amara we have to deal with this girl so that she should know it's not all about having fine face"Diana said and Anna laughed

"Lay an hand on me and you will know that that your mom that's busy sleeping with every man to feed your idiotic self will not live the next day but in a prison"Anna said and Diana charged forwarded slapping Anna and Anna returned the favour immediately

"How dare you call my mom a whore!"Diana shouted and they started fighting,soon enough the school became aware and Bisi,Joy,Jonathan and other few of their classmates rushed forward to stop the fight

Their teachers came too

"The three of you in the principal office!"their form master said after they succeeded separating them,their parents were called immediately to the school

The three of them stood at the principal office and their parents came awhile after

"I would love to hear from you what made you to decide to disobey the school order by fighting in the school hall way"the principal asked and they all remain silent "answer me!"she yelled hitting her desk before Anna decided to talk

"They were body shaming my friend"she replied looking down while her mom eyed her and she swallowed

"She called my mom a prostitute!"Diana yelled and her mom glance at Anna

"She called me a monkey!"Amara yelled too

"But you started it first by body shaming Joy,haven't you been taught it's wrong to body shame anyone!"Anna said angrily

"Shut up! All of you!"the principal yelled

"I brought your parents here to see what you guys were doing in school and I have the right punishment for the three of you,you will be writing the school report this term"the principal said and their eyes went wide,that's one of the worst punishment you can ever be given in the school, writing about everything that goes on in the school for the term and this make some students to miss classes

The principal dismissed them afterwards and Anna's mom stood outside of the principal office glaring at Anna who in turn finally saw her shoes as the most interesting thing ever

"First you leave the house in the middle of the night and now you fight at school,when did all these started,what have I done wrong Johanna,I always try to be the best mother and train you in the proper way why giving me headache since you turn sixteen"Her mother said angrily and she swallowed

"I'm sorry mom"she said feeling guilty

"Sorry for yourself and I will definitely let your dad know this"her mom said walking away and her shoulder slumped before walking towards her class why thinking about how she's going to write the school term's report,if she doesn't do it well her punishment will be extended to the following term and she doesn't want that

"What happened?"Bisi asked suddenly standing beside Anna who doesn't know when she came over,Joy walk towards her other side too

"Nothing,we just got into a little misunderstanding"Anna replied

"You're not the type to fight,it was really surprising"Bisi said and Anna shrugged walking away from her friends. Joy looked at Bisi and Bisi shrugged too walking away before Joy shook her head walking away too

*****

"Anna I have something to tell you"Joy said sitting on Anna's desk and Anna gave her the 'are you okay' look

"What's it?"she asked in an uninterested manner

"Well it's about my parents,I talked with them and I don't know I'm just confused"Joy said rubbing her eyes and Anna got angry all over again,how can her friend someone she calls her best friend hide something as important like that from her,her dating her brother

"Then make it simple for yourself"Anna replied and Joy was taking back

"Anna! Is that what you're suppose to say,you don't even look interested to hear what my parents said, people I haven't talked to for the past five years"

"What do you want me to say,please let me be"Anna said and Joy look at a friend a while before smiling walking away from her

"Hey! What's up?!"Bisi asked Joy and she bursted into tears "let's leave the class first"they walked out of the class to a secluded place "what's wrong with you?"

"I don't know what's going on Bisi,Anna doesn't talk to me like that and and and... It broke my heart"Joy said and Bisi hugged her

"I'm here for you and you can tell me anything,we are best friends remember BFF the three musketeers"Bisi said and Joy chuckled wiping her tears away "It's obvious Anna is going through a lot now so I advice you don't take whatever she says to heart"Bisi said and Joy nodded

"I have been keeping a secret from you guys,I think is high time I tell you Bisi but it's not my fault Jonathan made me hide it and I always feel guilty about it because we are not suppose to hide anything from our best friend"Joy said and Bisi raise her brow

"Jonathan?!"she asked

"Yeah well well we are uhmm we are in ehhm relationship and and he didn't wanted me to let you guys know,I'm so sorry that I'm just telling you now"Joy said

"Since when?"Bisi asked

"Almost five months now I think"Joy replied scratching the back of her head

"Wow! That's freaky long,why didn't you tell us I'm so surprised hearing this from you"Bisi feigned

"I'm so sorry Bisi it was Jonathan that wanted me to keep it a secret"

"It's fine,I understand so what's wrong with you?"Bisi asked

"Someone have been sending me message Bisi,it started from Jss2 then got worst when we just resume last term with time the person stopped and now the person is back with full force"Joy said and Bisi gave her the pity look

"What kind of message?"she asked

"Body shaming messages, I don't know what to do"Joy said in a tired tone

"I got an advice for you I don't know if can follow it,you can actually try to reduce the fats,you stop eating regularly and exercise a lot then don't sleep too much you will see that you got reduced drastically"Bisi said shrugging

"I was thinking of that too and I think that's what I'm going to do,when I slim down I will see how the person can send those messages again"

"Don't let it get to you babe,since you already have a plan"Bisi said and Joy nodded

"And also Jonathan have been avoiding me I don't know what's wrong"Joy said

"That one that's a womaniser,I was surprised when you told me you guys dated for five months,hope he haven't sleep with you"Bisi said and Joy nodded no

"We haven't gone that far"

"Good because it's better you forget about him,he doesn't love any body he is a play boy and do you believe he asked me out"Bisi said in a dramatic way and Joy's eyes went wide

"He even kissed me by force,don't you suspect the reason he doesn't want us to know because he doesn't want his cover to be blown"

"It look so real"Joy muttered and Bisi laughed

"Real? Real what? So you don't know fine boys are naturally a player,just brace yourself up and forget about that looser he can't not be wooing me and my friend"Bisi said standing up

"Cheer up that's not the end of the world,you will meet someone better, Jonathan is not just an ideal boyfriend"Bisi added before walking away and Joy had an hard time believing what Bisi just said and she remembered how Jonathan almost turned her against Bisi and a tear escaped her eyes

I was fooled
