Mindy was given a book about Drug Abuse to study in the library for detention.
During closing period, Mindy heard the news that the Principal has been rushed to the hospital.
A pin was stuck in his back side.
She rushed to the hospital knowing it wasn't far from the school. She had planned on telling him everything that Fa'iza did.
She knew there was CCTV camera in the Principal's office which recorded everything that Fa'iza did.
When she got there, it was a good thing that that the operation was quick and successful.
She got the footage then showed and principal.
She was feeling victorious mean while Fa'iza was at home studying in the library.
Fa'iza retired to her bed but not before calling BIGGY. The phone rang for a while before she picked up.
What took you so long to pick my call?" Fa'iza asked.
"I'm in a boarding school so don't expect too much from me".
"So lil girl, whatchu want from me? You only call when you need something" Biggy said in a straight forward tone.
"I want you to do something about........" Fa'iza explained to her all she needed.
"Alright! When is my payment?"
Biggy asked.
"You know me B, I'll pay you when I see the result and also send my stuff, I'm running out of it" Biggy chuckled as she heard this.
"That will be double payment"
Biggy pointed out again.
"Don't worry about the money, my pockets are never dry" Fa'iza reassured. More like her parents pockets are never dry.
"Until then!" Fa'iza cut the call as soon as Yusha bursted into her room.
"What the hell Yusha!!! Just because you are staying here for a week doesn't mean you can enter my room without knocking!" Her expression didn't work on Yusha, he is her second cousin afterall, he's always acting stonecold and fearless.
He frowned at her then inspected her room.
The room was painted light purple. There was a bed side table, a fitted wardrobe, vanity table with a stool that has beautifully carved designs, by no means, their father's wealth never went to waste.
She has a four poster bed and a bureau dresser.
He looked around, checked the wardrobe, the drawers and other places while Fa'iza tried to stop him.
"You're ruining my things" She complained. While he continued to look around. Then he stopped.
"Are you satisfied now? Oh you are satisfied already!" She yelled while standing akimbo.
"I know you Fa'iza, I know you still have it and when I see it, I'll surely tell your Dad about it" His voice was threatening to her but she brushed the end of her scarf on his face and laughed.
"Speak to my scarf Yusha cuz the ears weren't listening" He left the room murmuring "Beware little girl......you shall reap what ever you sow little girl"
"Such a hump!"
"He couldn't find even find it"
Fa'iza laughed as she pulled a small bottle from a small area on the headboard of the bed.
"Ah alas, my sweet nectar"
"Yusha will never find you my nectar"
She sighed before drinking it all.
The next day, Mindy was already prepared.
Fa'iza and Mindy were called to the principal's home since it was opposite the school with the supervision of Miss Yusra.
"Damn, the old man is in a horrible state, I kinda feel bad for him" Fa'iza mumured while Mindy chuckled.
"Never thought you have a heart" She complimented.
Fa'iza held her chest and made an expression showing fake hurt.
"Enough" Miss Yusra warned as they entered the sitting room.
They approached the man with a welcoming smile.
Fa'iza brought some fruits and chocolates for the man.
"These are from me, Mr Principal, wishing you quick recovery" Fa'iza's smile didn't make the man feel better, he had seen her in the footage. He was disappointed by her stupidity.
"Fa'iza why did you do this to me? Is it that you love seeing people in this kind of state? Why did you put the pin on my chair? What have I ever done to you?.......Just answer this question
Did you put the pin on my chair?" He asked.
"No sir, I would never do it on purpose" She spoke.
'How can she boldly lie like this?' He thought.
"So did you do it?" Miss Yusra asked.
"I didn't do it on purpose" She said again.
The old man gestured for her to bring his computer, though he was astonished on how she could be this calm, but whether she has admitted it or not, he has forgiven her because he had heard about Mindy and her mischiefs in her former school.
"Come here, children." They went close to him as he played the video.
"This is you going into my office....." He stated.
"Hmm" She hummed.
"And this is me keeping your files on the table as assigned be Mr Ben"
The principal hummed.
"Then I tripped on your box of pins that fell everywhere so I did my best to pick them from your table chair and the floor as well".
His saliva almost choked him! The video has been changed, but how? He asked himself.
He did see her putting the pins by herself on the chair in the footage Mindy showed him, he didn't believe at first but he acquired the real video from his system.
Then how could it be different?
"And.....I'm innocent" Fa'iza concluded.
"We should rush back to school, I don't want to miss class" Fa'iza left the Principal's house.
"But how?!" Mindy exclaimed.
"I don't know..." The principal murmured.
"Her house is very far from here, she couldn't have possibly done it" Miss Yusra added.
They went to the school with a dying silence, none of them spoke.
During lunch, Faiza didn't speak to Mindy nor did Mindy try to interact with Fa'iza.
The bell was rung for closing, all the students were going home, after an hour, Hanan spoke.
"Fa'iza, I'm going home, u coming?"
"No, not yet" Hanan rolled her eyes at her cousin's lazy response.
"What are we waiting for them?" Hannah asked after looking at her watch and seeing another hour has just passed.
"Her" Fa'iza pointed at Mindy coming her way.
As Mindy approached them, Fa'iza held her by her collar and punched her.
"You! You back stabber, you disgustingly sent the footage to him didn't you?" She asked.
Mindy punched Fa'iza and pushed her on the floor while panting.
"Yes! Yes I did, you made me get a detention, like hell you always got me into deep shit" Mindy spat.
They were throwing punches at each other and the fight was starting to get serious.
Fa'iza pushed her then tied her loosened scarf around her waist.
She approached Mindy with a brutal slap on her face, she bent her right hand to her back while Mindy scream.
On seeing this, Hanan ran out looking for Faruq. She knew Fa'iza could be crazy.
Mindy managed to get Fa'iza down by using her legs.
She dragged Fa'iza long brown hair while panting.
She used a mop stick to hit Fa'iza's leg, she screamed with drops of tears.
As Mindy was trying to do it again, Fa'iza rolled off the floor.
She used her shoe to stone her, got the chance to take the mop and hit her with it two times before Mindy caught it and threw it.
Mindy threw her in the floor then kicked her on her stomach. Blood was spat from Fa'iza mouth, Fa'iza caught Mindy's leg which made her fall on the floor.
Fa'iza kicked her stomach thriced before walking to the locker opposite to her, she was panting heavily; while sweating.
Before she could turn, she saw the shadow of the mop stick in front of her but it didn't hit her.
She quickly turned to see non other than Faruq.
Her eyes widened, he closed his eyes trying to bear the pain.
Mindy dropped the mopstick, her hands were shaking when she found out she hit Faruq. She ran away without looking back while he asked.
"Are you okay?" Fa'iza was scared by those words, she was threatened. She never knew he could do this for her. All she had done for him was to send him like a slave boy, make him study hard and sometimes give him insults but this.......' She thought, but this...... she never expected.
Her chest tightened at his action, he turned, while his back faced her "Put your Hijab on" He ordered.
"Oh!" She was embarrassed by this but she still wore it. Thought it has wrinkles now.
He walked away right before she could ask him about his back.
She and Hanan followed him.
"As-salamu'alaikum" They greeted the driver, he was going to ask how their day want but the expression of the young master was readable, 'it would be best if I answer their greetings only' he thought.
"Walaikum salam children". Faruq guided the driver where the girls live so that he could from them.
As soon as the car stopped, they got down.
"Take care of yourself" Was all he said before he motioned the driver to leave.
Faruq was generally not in a good mood today. His parents had left him with his annoying uncle who keeps asking him and advicing him about girls.
Thankfully Faiza and Hanan's parents travelled. Their aunt, her son,Yusha and daughter, Amanat will be living with them for a week.
