Belt lashes

More belt lashes

That was the only thing I could hear as I took another puff of smoke from my cigarette and inhaling the substance, taking it to my system.

No matter how much I tried to forget what happened three years ago the scenes and images were still in head playing like a movie.

Daddy please no!

She said those words begging him too stop but he continued hitting her with the belt and increasing the pace at which he did so.

You stupid child, you've never done anything good but ruin my life aren't you tired.

Another lashing of the belt was followed by his statement.

Daddy please I won't do it again I beg of you.

She pleaded in between fits of cries.

With one more lash of her back she stopped and threw the belt in another direction, looking at her with rage and so much disdain evident in his eyes.

"Get out my sight you filthy thing" He said with so much disgust in his voice.

She ran towards the stairs where I stood and watched the horror in front of me and I couldn't do anything.

She tugged on my trousers while crying.

"Chibby when is all of this gonna end I'm tired."

She said crying hysterically.

And I couldn't do anything about it, just watch and do nothing about it like the useless and scared boy I was while the man I called my father uses his daughter and my sister as a punching bad at every given opportunity.

And I always watch.

And do nothing...

Till today I'll always be that useless and pathetic boy.

"Guy afar na?" Someone called me driving me out of my reverie.

I looked up only to see Dexter walking towards the couch I was currently sitting on in the living room and made his way to sit beside me.

"I've been calling you for the past five minutes and you looked lost in a trance you good?" He asked and I only hummed as a reply to his question.

"Why were you calling me sef?" I asked him instead.

"Well..." He trailed off and I knew that he was about to say something annoying at the moment. "If you weren't so busy daydreaming you would've known that Desmond is outside waiting for us."

Oh right.

I grabbed my school bag from the table proceeding to head outside with Dexter trailing behind me.

The first thing I sighted was Desmond's latest black SUV parked in the compound.

"Why una take time na?" That was the first thing he said before proceeding to give us bro handshakes.

"Na him wey delay us oh." Dexter said pointing an accusing finger on me.

"Abeg guy make we just dey go, were are already late." He said glancing at his wristwatch.

Desmond was the only serious one among the two of us, let's just say he's also serious because of his post as the punctuality prefect.

We already took our seats in the car while he honked for the gateman to open the gate, he reversed the car and soon enough were on the roads of Abuja going to KIHS.

That only meant one thing for us which is going there to be the talk of students, girls fighting cause of us, girls shamelessly throwing themselves on us...especially me and more drama.

"So guys are you ready for the first day of school?" Desmond said while keeping his eyes attentively on the road.

"We are ready na, nothing wey we never ready for." Dexter replied while looking at his phone and smiling.

And I already knew that it was a girl.

Dexter and woman like 5 and 6.

"Ode make woman no kill you there." I said looking at him through the rearview mirror.

"Hmmmm did you say something?" He asked looking away from his phone and turning towards my direction.

"Wetin dey make you smile" I repeated.

"Oh..."

"We have a new girl in our class and she's hot and sexy as fuck" He said licking his lips.

Mumu boy

That's one thing about Dexter always chasing women and he's also perverted, you can't just have a conversation with him without him talking about dirty things.

And why are we having a new student in our senior year anyway?

"Since when did KIHS accept new students in their final year?" He asked as if reading my thoughts.

"I don't even know for them sef" he replied, "My own is too shoot my shot cause the girl is fine as hell, I mean guy just look at this." He said shoving his iPhone 14 in my face.

And when I looked at the phone all the air in my lungs just vanished.

Cause...

Damn

She had glowing fair skin, a cute smile, long lashes, her lips looked so alluring and let me not even get started with her body.

It was a picture of her taken last year ago, maybe they took her pic from there.

"Let Empress not catch you looking at another girl oh, I no get hand" Dexter said grabbing the phone from my hand.

Speaking of Empress...

I've not talked too her since the incident yesterday.

"Have you talked too her since..." He trailed off having a mental debate to tell me or not.

"You know, the incident yesterday" He completed his statement with his eyes still on the road.

"No I haven't" I replied with a slight edge in my tone indicating anger.

I hate when people always imply I should talk to her first when she is the cause of every problem.

And also the solution to your problems idiot. My subconscious chided.

"Guy see-" Desmond was about to say something but I cut him off immediately.

"I said I don't want to talk about it" I shouted even though I had no intention of doing so.

I looked around only to see we've reached the school premises and without second thoughts I got out of the car and slamming the door without thinking twice.

Desmond and Dexter called after me but I ignored them.

Bullshit!

Silence

More silence

That's what I was welcomed with as I sat on the rooftop after I ran away from Dexter and Desmond.

Feeling slightly frustrated I brought a cigarette stick from my pocket, connected my lighter to it, put it in my mouth and puffed the smoke in the air.

My mind drifted back to Empress and our encounter yesterday night.

"I thought you said you won't do it again" I looked at her with a heartbreaking plastered on my face.

"Derrick stop being such a baby and grow up" She said with annoyance clearly written on her tone.

"Are you being serious right now" I asked with a bewildered expression on my face.

"Yes I'm serious, I can't be with someone who only complains about their problems all the time and have sex with me less, so I gotta do what I do" She ranted with an unapologetic look on her face.

"Abeg I don't have strength for this conversation when you've finished all this your rubbish you know where to find me" she said grabbing her bag and walking out of the door not forgetting to bang it right in my face.

I sighed again as I recalled all the memories that were still fresh in my mind.

Empress and I had always have a toxic relationship. Its either I'm making a fuss of everything and I'm being a big baby, when she is the cause of the problems.

But no matter how wrong she is I still can't let her go so I always apologize to her as stupid and pathetic I am.

I sighed again.

The door to the rooftop opened and I saw Desmond peeping through the door looking hesitant about stepping in.

He stepped in after much reluctance taking careful steps towards me.

He sat beside me on the bench I was currently sitting on.

"Guy afar" He said adjusting himself next too me.

"I'm good." I replied taking another puff of smoke from my cigarette.

Desmond looked at the cigarette in my hand disapprovingly but didn't say anything about it.

He wasn't always in support of me smoking and taking other sorts of drugs cause he claimed there where other ways to take away pain from your life, but didn't particularly force me to stop.

"You know its break time, you need to eat something" He said with a concerned look on his face.

"You know ever since your fight with her you haven't eaten good food and smoking isn't the best thing to do" He emphasized further.

"I'm not hungry" I told him even though I was craving Jollof rice and chilled coke at the moment.

"Abeg stand up make we dey go, who do you think your deceiving" He replied, laughter evident in his tone.

I threw the used cigarette stick away trailing behind Desmond.

As we stepped into the cafeteria everyone especially girls started their whispering. While some went ahead to fantasize about us. Most especially me.

"He's so cute."

"He is the man of my dreams"

"The only thing I came to school to do is too just look at his face."

"He must marry me oh."

Imagination wants to wound these ones.

I thought to myself walking towards our table where we normally sat down while Desmond went to get our food.

I looked around only to see Empress giving them deadly glares and side eyes.

Her eyes met mine and she hissed before looking away.

I sighed for the umpteenth time today.

"Broskiiiii!" I looked up only too see Dexter with his signature grin on his face hailing me.

I rolled my eyes.

This boy ehn

And at the same time Desmond made his way towards us with a tray in his hands containing food and some snacks.

"How did you I was craving jollof rice and coke" I asked him looking at the food placed right in front of me.

"I have my ways" he said smiling sheepishly.

Ode

I was peacefully eating my meal when my phone rang.

I groaned in annoyance at whoever was calling me. I picked up the phone and the caller ID gave me an unsettled feeling.

Incoming call
My little princess🤭❤️✨

She only called me for two reasons, the first reason being she is bored and the second...

Oh no

I immediately picked the call and dropped my spoon hurriedly, that caused Dexter and Desmond to give me weird looks.

"Chibby" she said through the phone and her voice sounded as if she was crying.

"What's wrong" I asked in a angered tone.

"It..s dad he-e came and started beating me when I was on my way to school" she said breaking into another round of uncontrollable tears.

"I just came to tell you that I won't be coming to school today" she said in between sobs as she ended the call.

I was seething with anger.

How could he.

Dexter and Desmond noticed my changed in mood and asked me whats wrong but I stood up with a speed causing the chair to screech with a sound that alerted everyone and they all had their eyes on me but I couldn't care less as I made my way out of here.

Getting there I bumped into something or rather something.

Clash!

That was the sound the tray made as it fell to ground while I stood there soaked with all assorted dishes.

I looked up at the person who I bumped into.

It was her

"I'm so-

"Are you blind or what, can't you see where your going or your just plain stupid why can't you just have sense now my expensive school uniform and shoes are ruined cause of your stupidity, useless thing" I spat at her, transferring all the anger I was feeling towards her as I made my way out of the cafeteria without sparing a backwards glance.

Fuck my life!
