The next morning, time for mass. Jordan and his friends stood in front of chapel as students ran from him showing they were late.

'Thank God we're friends, I can't imagine myself waking up from sleep, then the next  thing I will see one dude standing in front of chapel by 4:30a.m. Then...'

'Shut up dude. You too dey talk. Its too early please Alex' Damien whined.

'Damien seriously, did you dream of this guy' Jeremy said.

'God forbid. I can't see Alexander Ummuna in my dream o. I reject'

'People pray to see me in their dream' Alex replied

'Like who?

'You guys should leave Alex for me na, since yesterday una dey finish this dude'

'I just tire. I'm going to report to Izzy when she comes' Alex said and sat in the staircase in front of chapel. Just then Isabelle walked in to join them with half of the school's population running behind her.

'Look who stopped by today' she said hugging Jeremy.

'I know you missed me Izzy, no need to be deceiving Jeremy' Jordan said

'You wish. Hey Alex, how's my baby' Isabelle cooed making Damien roll his eyes.

'Can this day get any worse, una stupidity is extraordinary'

'Jealousy. Go inside, no one missed you'

'You missed me, that one I know'

'You wish. Alex you're so tall now, see your hair, my beautiful boy...' Jordan sighed, he kept weird friends. Just then his sister strolled past him. He tore out a paper and squeezed it then he threw it at her

'Its not time for mass abi, you stupid girl' he said

'You make me dislike you more everyday'

'The feeling is mutual sis, where's my hoodie?' She frowned

'Somewhere' .

'Don't play with me. I need it'

'I forgot about it, no need to lie about it.'

'If I use your head to destroy this wall...'

'I'm sorry. I didn't know you needed it urgently'

'Whatever, bring it for me later, and where is my socks Jessica, don't even tell me that's what you're wearing unless we die here'

'Please na, you won't believe me, I left my pant bag at home' Jordan covered his mouth holding back laughter. ' Its not funny Jayjay. Stop' his sister whined hitting his arm.

'I'm not laughing because you left your pantbag at home, I'm just wondering what you're wearing right now'

'Gosh jayjay, why are you like this. Of course I have extra' he kept on laughing turning towards his friends

'Iz Mbah, my babe left her pant bag at home' the boys burst into a fit of laughter. Jessica bit her lips glaring at Jordan.

'You guys should stop. Why are you guys like this. Jessy don't mind them'

'If she left her pantbag at home, that means babe nor wear pant. LOL.' Jeremy said and the boys began laughing again.

'You guys are so annoying, get the fuck outta here, I hate you guys' Jessica replied angrily walking past them.

'Jessica, my love, the only fine girl I see, I'm sorry' Jeremy shouted behind her but she didn't turn back. She dropped her school bag and entered chapel.

'Weldone o' Isabelle said

'Oya lie you were not laughing' Jeremy replied and walked inside chapel followed by others.

                    ******************

      She entered her class, meeting the normal chatter that followed resumption. Social science students were the worse, they were surprisedly much. Not so many students wanted to be in the social science class. They mostly went into art or science class. Taking her seat and bringing out her accounting text book,

'Hey' MJ said sitting beside her

'Hey. Are you supposed to be here'

'Nah, were having government now.' Tomika raised a brow at her

'So what are you doing here, Mary Jane, its first day of school.'

'I know, I just don't like what the teacher is wearing'

'Wow. If you can excuse me, I have a textbook to read.'

'Come on, besides I don't really know why I'm offering government. I'm doing theatre arts'

'Its under arts. Manage'

'Yeah yeah. Soon, when I become an actress, I'll meet Jace Norman and we'll get married...'

'You still crush on Jace Norman' Tomika said with a scoff.

'Of course, he's fucking gorgeous'

'Won't he be old by the time you become an actress?'

'Doesn't mean'

'Hmmm. I fear you o'

'Leave me jor. When we get married, I'll be Mary Jane Norman'

'Oh God.' Tomika said resting her head on the table.

'I don't blame you. Anyways how is your dad's company going'

'You know I don't care about it'

'How can't you care about it, you're going to inherit it one day'

'Whatever, when I inherit it, it'll only count as part of my fortunes. I want to be independent  MJ, not depending on my parents, you should know that'

'I know, but still...'

'MJ!' She sighed

'Anyways, I have gist' Tomika smiled closing her text book. 'Senior Alexander chatted me up this holz' Tomika raised a brow.

'Seriously?'

'Do you think I'm making it up'

'No, but how did he get your number'

'You think I care, its Alexander ummuna we're talking about o'

'What's there sef?'

'He is in the famous four, that is most popular guys and he's one of the richest and hottest guys in school, how he got my number nor concern me o, who give am my number na him try pass'

'Hmmm.'

'You still hate them because of Damien'

'Who be Damien. I'll just be hating them because of Damien'

'Then why don't you like them. You hate them up to sp. Sp is hot too sha' MJ said smiling.

'Has Alex even talked to since we resumed'

'No. Maybe that's how he does. Maybe later he'll talk to me'

'You're so hopeful'

'Of course I'm hopeful. Try to be supportive Tomika'

'You don't like jace Norman again?'

'Of course I love Jace Norman, no one can replace him'

'Alex nko?' Tomika said with a smirk. MJ bit her lips glaring at her.

'I don't blame you Tomi. I will find that guy you like don't worry'

'You go find am for a very long time sha'

'Even though, I must find him' she said getting up and leaving the class, stopping shortly to yell"I will find him" through the window. Tomika shook her head with a smile. Looking outside the window watching Mary Jane go back to her class. She took out her books, first period was over and it was time for commerce.
