Happy birthday to my one and only sister celestina31617. Many more years on earth.

KIKIOPE

"Do you understand?"Ọyọndẹkun questioned with her eyes roaming around the class. She was dressed in a blue body hug gown that hugged and outlined her amorphous figure, like I just don't understand why someone who knows her shape wouldn't fit a body hug would decide to wear such, her big breasts was now looking for network and attention.

"Yes, ma," we all chorused.

" That's how you'll be saying, let me ask you question now, you'll start rambling, anyway for your mid-term test coming up next week, it won't be written but rather a group project, I'll be grouping you into five groups and you'll have to choose a group leader..."

" For what ma?" The ADS patients stupidly asked.

Ọyọndẹkun smiled at them before continuing, "The group leader will come out and lecture us on the topic he or she chooses before asking the other group members questions each, so now I'll be grouping you."

She turned to the class captain and asked, " You're fifty in your class right?"

"Fifty- one ma," Longwire corrected.

"That makes it easy for me, Number one to ten will be group one, eleven to twenty will be group two..." she grouped the whole class and instructed us to choose the group leaders before she comes back to the class during the lesson period.

Immediately she walked out of the class, Bella jumped up from her seat and called the attention of the students in the first group so far she was Number 1.

"I'll take the position of the group leader," she announced while twirling her hand round her short hair.

" And who did you tell before deciding?" I asked getting annoyed, I was Number 7 while Bimpe was Number 8.

"Do I have to tell anyone? It's not as if any other person is interested?" she countered as she rolled her eyes.

"Who told you that?" Abimbola queried, she was number 6, and we always sat down together most times during exams so far our numbers were after each other.

"We can't allow you to be the group leader, your 'I too know' is too much and you are not calm, you might start spluttering nonsense, and we can't allow you to affect our grades, óni jàbájàbá óshi," Tobi nagged, he was Number 10.

Bella glared daggers at him and walked up to him in anger.

"It's not as if you have any grade naaa, aren't you ranked 40?"

The whole class roared and Tobi's face turned sour.

"Who are you to condemn him?" Tolani barked, she was Number 5, then Bella turned to her.

" Aunty it's obvious you have a crush on him and you've been throwing yourself at him but must you disgrace yourself by making it public? He doesn't like ugly girls like you and it isn't as if you're different na, aren't you ranked 38, olodo plus olodo,"  Bella fumed.

"Gbefun!" the guys hailed her.

"Ko connect," the girls added while hailing her but in a twinkle of an eye, Tolani walked up to her and a resounding slap landed on her face, that made her stagger for a minute looking for network before she regained her composure. Her other patients; Precious and Kaffy quickly stood up and joined her.

"Na only mouth she get," Bimpe mocked.

"Abi oo," I added while smiling in amusement, certainly, the show would be entertaining.

"It isn't as if you're any better, are you not 35th in class, now tell me what's the difference? Upon your ITK, and trying to be all teachers favourite, who knows if you haven't been sleeping your way to the 35th"  Tolani shouted, it was crystal clear she was irate.

"Yeeehhh!" The whole class roared. That was one thing about my class, they were always adding salt to the injury.

"Did you just slap me?" Bella barked as she placed her hand on her cheek in surprise. Her face was red and her nose flared, she could burst anytime.

"She will soon burst oo," Bimpe jested.

"All her maggots should not sha fall on the ground," I added, and we both laughed.

" See question oo," she clapped sarcastically before continuing," When you're as senseless as a stone,  why won't you be asking such a foolish question that only a retard can ask? Olorigbe," Tolani retorted and before anyone could say Jack, Bella rushed at her. She slapped her and Tolani returned it with another resounding slap and a fight ensued, they started slapping and throwing punches with different ringing tones and rolled on the floor.

"Stop it!" Longwire shouted, but they turned deaf ears as they continued entertaining the class with their childish wrestling.

"Bella will just kill herself," I told Bimpe who nodded in agreement.

"Like she's just too foolish, you know you can't fight, yet you are looking for trouble," she responded and I chuckled.

The class started hailing Tolani as she was leading the fight, while Precious and Kaffy were only shouting, they couldn't even help their fellow patient, minutes passed, and they still engaged in their wrestling until the voice of Mr. Adeyoyo; our class teacher stopped them.

Everyone had been so engrossed in the free matinée going on that they didn't notice the entrance of Mr. Adeyoyo. Bimpe and I had sighted him as he stepped into the class.

"What's the meaning of all this rubbish in my class?" Mr. Adeyoyo barked and silence enveloped the class as everyone scrambled to their seat.

Tolani and Bella quickly released each other, then we realized Bella's skirt had been ripped and her panties was showing. Her top was rumpled with her face bleeding.

"The idiot didn't even wear tight," Bimpe said.

"Stupid girl," I added.

"Where is the class captain and monitoress?" Mr. Adeyoyo demanded with anger evident in his tone.

"Here, sir," Longwire appeared.

With Precious being the class monitoress, she started babbling, "Sir, I tried stopping them but they didn't answer even the whole class was against me, I wanted to..."

He cut her  short, " Shut up!"

"The idiot is even against her friend," Bimpe said.

"When I tell you someone is immature and stupid, you just have to believe me."

Decorum descended on the class that instant.

"Wrestlers, go and kneel down in front of the class," he ordered as Tolani and Bella who was trying to cover her half naked body walked to the front of the class and did as instructed.

"There's no break for your class today, immediately you hear the bell, every single person should file out of this class and assemble in front of the class, you all will lie down on the floor and get basked by the sunlight."

The whole class growled and he brought out his cane.

"As for the captain and monitoress, your own punishment is double and wrestlers you're to follow me to the staff room as soon as I step out of this class, sebi you want to become Anthony Joshuas ni, èeefeegba."

Others scrunched up their face while Bimpe and I cursed him.

"But sir..." stupid Bella tried talking.

" Keep quiet!" he barked, and she did as ordered before he turned towards the board.

"What do you have?" He inquired.

"Biology," every one chorused.

"Captain, go and call your teacher, monitoress, ensure the class is silent till your teacher comes," he instructed and Longwire walked out of the class the same time with Bella and Tolani trailing behind him while Precious readjusted her sitting position.

"Noise maker list is going on," she announced and I shook my head.

"Lo ko nii mortuary," Bimpe shouted.

"Mortuary ke, go to poultry, there are a lot of noise makers there, you can never get tired," I added and she eyed us before turning to the front, she dare not write our name.

"Gosh, boring class starts ooo," I said immediately I sighted Longwire and our biology teacher walking towards the class.

"Ooh, ooh, wo me, I want to sleep, if she asks you any foolish question, just tell her I'm not feeling fine," Bimpe told me as she placed her head on the table prepared to drift into la-la-la land.

"You're not serious," I chortled as our teacher walked in with Longwire.

"Class, greet!" He ordered, and we all stood up to greet except Bimpe, she had already started her journey to dreamland.

"Why is Bimpe sleeping?" Our teacher asked and I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.

"She's somehow ill," I lied smoothly.

"Hmmm," Abimbola mumbled and I dashed her a warning glare, she was the only one that dared to grumble, other students wouldn't try such.

"Then take her to the dispensary, my class is not an hospital," she said before waving at others to sit.

"The nurse is not there and it's locked," I lied yet again even though I hadn't gotten any glimpse of the dispensary today.

"Oh, okay then," she then turned to the board.

Bimpe pinched me and I smiled before turning to the front.

💢💢💢💢💢💢💢💢

"Good afternoon ma," Bimpe and I greeted as we walked pass one of the less popular teachers in school.

"Ah, afternoon, how are you?" Her mouth stretched into a wry and humourless smile.

"Fine, ma," we returned it with a blank but polite smile.

"So, have you finally stopped bleaching?"

Bimpe and I exchanged questioning glances. Someone we've never had anything to do with, why on earth would she ask such a question?

"Have you stopped using bleaching cream?"

Definitely a psycho. We were both fair in complexion and I don't think that makes us into someone that bleach, I even despised people that bleached their skin. Infact, we were all light- skinned except Khalid and Kunmi.

We gave her a tight-lipped smile before Ìyá Ìbón called her, quickly Bimpe and I walked away heading to the dressing room, it was Wednesday afternoon already, and we were to present our drama in the next few minutes. Other students were already present on the assembly.

Immediately we finished dressing, our vice principal walked up to the podium before I sighted Doyin and other athletes; they'd gone for the Sagamu day Marathon race earlier in the day.

"Doyin is back," I said to Bimpe who quickly walked up to me and peeped through the window.

"Good, I trust my baby came home with a medal."

Her trust was confirmed when the vice principal took hold of the microphone, "Good afternoon students."

"Afternoon sir," they all chorused.

"I know you're all eager to go home most especially the hostel students, but we have to do the necessary things before going, anyway, we're all aware of the preparation for the Sagamu day and our school went out for the marathon race today, our representatives made us proud, give it up for Tobi, he came third in the male race."

Claps accompanied by shouts filled the air for some seconds.

"And for the female race, as expected our amiable Doyinsola came home with a gold, it's not easy to be the first in a marathon race ooo."

"Yayy," Bimpe shouted as she jumped on me.

"You won't break my neck sha," I jested before she got down.

"I just hope all those ones have good prizes oo at least to compliment her birthday too," Bimpe said.

"That's even true, they didn't even allow us to give her the gifts this morning, where is that stupid Abifoluwa gan? He has not even given her any gift," I asked before peeping out again with my eyes searching through the crowd of more than a thousand students, not like I could easily spot him.

"Can you even see him?"

"That's even true," I turned back to her before Tunde walked up to me alongside 'Big Show', Big show was the fattest girl in our class and that earned her the nickname.

"It's time," they both announced in unison.

"Oh, for the first scene, where is Pimples factory?" My eyes scanned around.

"He's outside already," Big show replied. She was playing the role of Tunde's Mom while Pimples factory was playing the role of his father.

"Oh, okay then," I made some eye signs with Bimpe before walking out with Tunde and Pimples factory. The first scene would be me going with Tunde to his parents place.

Exactly forty five minutes later, the stage play ended, after lots of shouts and claps and with compliment from our teacher who later prayed on the assembly, we were all dismissed for the midterm break. On getting to the car park, AY had arrived, so, we left school early.

"Welcome to my home," I screamed immediately I opened the door and my friends walked in.

"Like, this is my first time here," Doyin and Abee uttered simultaneously and I smiled.

"Anyway, the boys would be staying in the guest room, Khalid, take them to your room," I instructed, and he smiled before leading the way while I turned to the girls.

"We'll be staying in my room," I inched towards my room while they followed suit, my room was not that big but it was comfy, we later settled down on my six by six bed that was opposite my dressing table  to converse.

"So, what did they give you?" Bimpe inquired as Doyin readjusted her sitting position to rest her back on the wall.

"A golden cup which the school has collected and buckets, that one is even in the hostel."

"Is that all?" I queried slightly appalled, like for a whole marathon race, there was no reasonable gift.

She shook her head before replying, "No oo, the real gift would be presented on the souvenir day nau and that's Sunday, all winners across would be gifted that day."

Then I nodded before talking, "God save them, they should sha include good money ni koko."

"Abi oo."

"But wait, why is it that the school always collect the cup, for the past few years, it's always used as a decoration in the principal's office, heaven knows the number of cups in that ugly man's office," Bimpe uttered.

Doyin and I shared a look before she talked, "That's even true, at least, I should have one too nau."

"Exactly," I added.

"Good, but they won't give it to us, don't you think we should just break in into the principal's office?" Bimpe suggested.

I squeezed my face.

"That's true though but won't they catch us," Doyin tried reasoning.

"That's true," I supplemented.

"And you're talking as if you can't fight, we'll just beat them to stupor jare whereas the guys will help too nau."

Doyin placed her index finger on her lips before looking up like someone thinking, "Hmm, that's right though."

"Okay, but I think the best time to carry out this operation is during this midterm break at least the whole school would be empty during this period," I told them as they fastened their eyes on me.

Doyin wanted to talk but the opening of the door stopped her as the guys barged into the room.

"You guys are manner less, you cannot even knock before coming in, awon ode," Bimpe accused while eyeing them.

"Abi oo," Doyin added.

"Anyway, why are you here?" I queried.

"It's my baby's birthday," Abee started and I rolled my eyes.

"We all know that," Bimpe and I said in unison.

"Let him talk na," Kunmi shouted and I eyed him.

"You sha want us to know you still exist," Bimpe pursed her lips while eyeing him.

Kunmi opened his mouth to respond but Khalid's voice stopped him, "Abee has something to say."

"Okay oo," Bimpe and I chanted.

"So, I've decided we go out, it's my treat, let's all go to Conference hotel to celebrate her birthday and the competition."

Doyin's eyes brightened as a smile crept up her face.

"What are we going to do in a hotel ooo?" Bimpe teased and I chuckled.

"Dirty girl," Kunmi replied, and she pursed her lips.

"Just to catch fun na," Khalid stated.

"We'll just go to their restaurant and perhaps swim too then take pictures," Abee elaborated and that made Bimpe jump down from the bed instantaneously.

"I didn't know you had brain oo, oya stand up and let's get dressed na," she turned to us as Doyin crawled down the bed gently.

"Won't you guys go out nii?" I eyed them and they chuckled before walking out of the room.

"No wonder Abee gifted me that yellow gown this morning," Doyin commented before opening her small bag to get dressed.

Bimpe then turned to me, "I didn't bring any fine cloth oo."

"Just open my wardrobe and choose any cloth of your choice."

Immediately she walked up to my wardrobe.

"But what of swim wears?" Doyin asked while getting dressed in the yellow body con gown that fitted her really well.

"I don't fancy all those stupid bikinis, let's just wear tank tops with either bum shorts or mini skirt."

"Okay then," they both agreed.

Minutes later, we sashayed out of the room and walked out of the office only to meet a white Corolla car waiting in my compound.

"Where did you get this from?" Doyin asked Abee.

"Khalid got it."

Immediately our eyes turned to him.

"I just beeped my dad and he gave me the permission to call his driver," he explained, and we nodded in return before getting into the car.

Throughout our journey to the hotel, we kept on chattering and immediately we got down, Bimpe started taking pictures before we walked into their restaurant.

After ordering our food, Bimpe continued with the pictures, till the end of the day, she was busy taking pictures while we enjoyed ourselves, the whole social media was buzzing with our pictures,  it was fun-filled as we engaged in different activities ensuring Abee spent a lot of money.

Midterm break just started.

Who enjoys watching fighting show in class? I enjoyed it a whole lot then.
