KIKIOPE

A hot slap reverberated throughout the staff room, my pupils grew huge but it disappeared that minute.

Corper Kenny held unto his cheeks with widened eyes shooting sparks of temper at Bimpe who didn't feel contrite at all.

A lash landed on Bimpe's back, and she turned to glare at Stone face who had just hit her with the cane. I know the foolish man has been looking for a way to beat us, and he found an opportunity.

"What happened?" Miss Grace questioned in astonishment as all other teachers came rushing to the entrance while throwing their questions, while some kept on condemning.

"Okay, let's ask what really happened, you're just shouting at this girl, at least something must have prompted her to slap Corper Kenny," our assistant class teacher known as Aunty Flourish said.

"These girls are bad kids jare," Stone face countered and I didn't know when I dashed him a scowl, he wanted to talk but Ọyọndẹkun interrupted.

"Ngbo, Bimpe what happened? Why did you slap Corper Kenny?"

I fluttered my lashes, so, Ọyọndẹkun could be reasonable Sha, we need to kill ram.

Bimpe cleared her throat, "Thank you ma, he..." She turned back to scowl at Corper Kenny who was now winking and giving her different eyes signals.

"Stop winking at her!" I shouted and other teachers snapped their head towards me.

"So, as I was saying, Kikiope and I were walking out of the Staff room after collecting our forms from Miss Grace, and we met Corper Kenny at the entrance, after greeting him sha, he held us up by discussing some meaningless things with us, it wasn't until Big Show passed that he..."

She looked around at the teachers whose attention were fully focused on her while Corper Kenny kept on pinching her, "Stop pinching me," she slapped his hand away before continuing, "He was like, look at your mate, when will your breast become as big as hers and before I could even comprehend what he was saying, his hand went straight to my breast, its still even paining me gan," she concluded and noise filled the staff room as they all kept on murmuring and saying all manner of things.

"Bimpe sorry about that, you guys can go," Mr. Adeyoyo permitted, and we walked out of the staffroom but not without throwing a mocking look at Corper Kenny who looked like he could faint any minute from now.

Ever since the Corpers arrived in our school, almost all the male Corpers were after the girls in our school infact the girls gan were after them but that Corper Kenny's own is the worst, jumping from one student to another just because he believed he was handsome and the thing is not different from an Orangutan oo.

"The slap you gave him was hot oo," I started as we sauntered to our rendezvous.

"He deserves it, I'm sure he'll be deaf for days, do I look like all those useless girls that are after him?" She replied with annoyance evident in her voice, it was clear that she was still irate over the issue.

"But that guy is an idiot sha, if to say I was the one I would have slapped him more than once."

Her face creased into a small smile, "It's because of all those teachers, if not I would have slapped the daylight out of his empty skull."

I chortled merrily before sitting on the bench chair while Bimpe sat beside me, none of the others had arrived yet, we kept on discussing the issue before Doyin appeared.

"Is it true?" She asked as she sat beside Bimpe.

"What?" We both asked in unison.

She turned to us with an amused look, "Is it true that you slapped Corper Kenny?"

Ooh, ill news travel fast oo, something that happened couple of minutes ago is now all over the school. It would surely be the talk for this week.

Bimpe cocked her head, "How did you know?"

Doyin clapped in amusement, "So, it's true, Bimpe, you're something else oo, by the way, what did he do?"

Just as she opened her mouth to reply, we heard Kunmi shout, not shout though because he had a loud voice.

"Bimpe, did you really slap Corper Kenny?" He queried as he and Abee watched her inquisitively.

"But how did it travel around the school so soon?" Bimpe asked no one in particular.

"The question is did you really slap him?" Abee asked this time around, just then Khalid appeared.

"Now I'm hearing rumour that Bimpe slapped Corper Kenny," He said before sitting in front of me before Abee and Kunmi joined him.

"It's not a rumor ooo," Doyin confirmed and a flash of surprise appeared in their eyes as their eyes almost bulged out.

"Omo, Bimpe, you're something oo," Kunmi said in a singsong tone

Bimpe smiled before flipping an imaginary hair while we all laughed.

"But why did you do that?" Khalid asked when our laughter died down.

Then she narrated the whole ordeal to them.

"You mean he..." A shocked expression appeared on Kunmi's face.

"You're not deaf oo, you heard me or do you want me to start saying the disgusting thing again," Bimpe snarled as she eyed him.

He wanted to retort but Abee cut him off, "That guy is mad sha."

"More than mad, you know I've been noticing the looks he do give Bimpe, ase, he wanted to press her breast nii," I jested and Bimpe slapped my arm while others laughed.

We talked more on the issue before deviating to another topic.

"E ehn, I was nominated for the post of the SRC chairman," Khalid announced, and we all swung our gaze up to meet his.

"Really? I think the Prefect ship form came out on Friday when we missed school because I went to field this morning and our game master told me he already bought a form for me," Doyin explained.

"Yeah, that's true, main reason we went to the Staffroom, Miss Grace also bought the form for us," I added.

"Our class teacher bought it for us too," Abee added.

"Turns out the school knew we were absent from school on Friday," Kunmi said, and we all nodded in accordance.

"So, what post did she fill for you guys?" Khalid inquired.

Bimpe was the first to reply, "She filled in Senior Prefect girl for me oo, what's my business with that post? Something, that Doyin should have gone for."

Doyin choked out a laugh, "Me ke? Our game master will not even agree, infact the whole school won't agree, they know Sports Prefect girl fits me better than anything, just the way Social Prefect girl is Kikiope's calling."

I raised my left eyebrows at her, "It's not my calling oo."

"It's your calling in secondary school, we all know how social you are, I'm sure Miss Grace signed you up for that position right?"Abee said as he drummed his index finger on the table.

I nodded, "Yeah, and you, I know Sanitary Prefect Boy is your calling."

He chuckled, "God forbid."

I pursed my lips, "So, what will you apply for or has your teacher applied for any?"

He slouched, "No, he didn't, the person that is still telling us to pay him the ₦200 for the form, like we forced him to buy it."

"Abi oo," Kunmi added.

"You see Kunmi, Lost Property Prefect fits you well abi Scavenger Prefect," Bimpe snickered, and he tried eyeing her, but he only ended up blinking his eyes while we girls erupted into laughter.

"So, you guys don't know the post to apply for now?" Khalid asked.

"Yes oo," they replied concurrently.

Khalid's lips curved into a small smile, "Kunmi, your own is simple, Bimpe is going for S.P girl which means you should go for..."

"S.P boy," I completed it for him, and he smiled at me.

"For where? I can't cope with this one oo, just know the school will turn upside down," Bimpe pointed out as she crossed her legs.

Kunmi narrowed his eyes, "Me gan I can't cope with you."

Bimpe wanted to reply but Khalid cut her off, "So, what of Abee?"

"I'll still have to think about it," he replied, and we all nodded before Kunmi yelled.

"It's almost break over, and we haven't had lunch."

Bimpe rolled her eyes, "Is that why you screamed as if the school is burning, oga oo."

Immediately he opened his mouth to respond, the warning bell was jingled to signify the end of recess.

"Finally, we didn't eat anything," Doyin complained.

"We can still buy some snacks before going back to our class," I suggested, and they all agreed to it, then we strolled to the canteen, after buying snacks and drinks, the final bell was rung, and we went back to our various classes.

"What was that stunt you pulled during the weekend?" Abimbola asked as I pulled out my chair.

"So, it takes three whole days for your brain to process it abi?" I replied before sitting on my chair, Bimpe was already munching her sausage rolls.

"You're stupid," she hissed scathingly and I gave her a tight-lipped smile.

"Only the stupid one would recognize her fellow, anyway, let me save you the grace of thinking too much, you told me to bring the game on and I've decided to do that."

Her eyes widened for some seconds before it reduced, "Well, bring it on," she shrugged.

I chuckled, "Sure, start expecting more."

She eyed me contemptuously before her eyes scanned the form I was holding.

"Wait, you're also going for the Social Prefect girl Post?"

"As you can see," I replied before opening my drink.

"What! Why are you always after what is mine?"

I was surprised at the outburst, so, I dropped my drink on the table and focused my attention on her.

"Tell me, what do you own that I'm after oo? This post has been mine since junior years and again, I'm not even contesting for the post because I was chosen, so, I'll advise you go for another post like Water Prefect or something."

She glared at me while fuming in anger, just as she opened her mouth to retort, Longwire ordered us to greet the teacher that turned out to be Corper Kenny.

"You can have your seat but Bimpe I don't want to see you in my class, henceforth, if I should enter you class, you leave the class."

I creased my brows before glancing at Bimpe.

"Sir, why?" She inquired.

"You're not to ask me that, just get out of my class!"

"Is it because I slapped you?"

"Get out!" He thundered and I could almost feel the bricks falling at the intensity of his voice. It really pained him oo.

"Of course I will," she replied as she picked up her Gala and Zobo drink while I picked my snack and drink too, then we inched our way out of the class.

"Kikiope I didn't ask you to leave," he said when I got to the entrance.

I turned to him, "Bimpe is leaving so I see no reason for me to stay whereas your class is boring, all you do is seduce girls."

His nose flared and I quickly walked out of the class before he could shout again.
