THE UNEXPECTED LOVE
(Tochi in school)
Season 2
Episode 8
 
Tochi smiled out to the principal’s office to pick a broom which the junior students will use for their duties, while Vivian entered into the classroom to keep her bag. Just at the entrance of the office, Tochi over-heard Mr Anuma and the principal discussing. She listened from the door which was demarcated with only a cotton.
Mr Anuma took a seat sharply without even the permission of the principal who sat opposite him wondering what must have caused his curiosity and anxiety. He removed his eyeglasses instantly and hit the table bitterly.
“Mr Anuma what’s all these?” the principal interrogated.
“I think i have a bad news” he replied tapping his foot continuously, “Did you watch CNN news last night?” he asked.
“No, what happened?”
“An airplane from Nigeria to London crashed yesterday and Wisdom’s number isn’t going through”
“My Goodness!” Mr Nelson exclaimed while Tochi gasped from the door with her hands on her mouth. Mr Anuma heard her voice then called her.
“What are you doing here?” he asked.
Tochi was already vibrating and her eyes began to w-t with tears but she tried very hærd to control it.
“Sir, i-i-i..want to take a-a-a” she stammered with her mouth shaking and the tears finally dropped from her eyes. “Sir please, tell me Wisdom is not dead” she changed the topic in tears and the principal shook his head sadly.
“Desmond” Mr Anuma called. “You have to calm down and make sure nobody hears about this”
“Are you really saying that Wisdom is dead?”
“No! We don’t know yet until we confirm the truth! So stop crying and keep your mouth shut not to scare people especially his parents, okay?”
“Okay, sir” Tochi replied and ran in,side her classroom crying with her face bent downward. Only vivian was in,side the classroom, so she quickly rushed her and asked, “Why are you crying?” but she didn’t get a reply.
Mr Anuma and the principal rushed out of the office, they entered a car and drove off with a high speed. Seeing that, Linda rushed in,side the classroom and found Tochi crying while Vivian stool by her side.
“Why is she crying? What have you done to her?” she shouted at Vivian.
“I didn’t do her anything. She came out from the office crying bitterly” she defended.
“Tochi, why are you crying?”
“Linda I’m finished” Tochi replied. “Airplane oh.. Airplane crashed oh… And Wisdom’s number is not going oh”
“Jesus!” Linda exclaimed.
“Which of the Wisdom are you talking about?” Vivian asked but nobody replied her. Meanwhile, Linda was already in tears too.
“I believe is not your own Wisdom. He can’t just die like that” she consoled Tochi.
“Can somebody tell me what’s going on her?!” Linda exclaimed curiously..

The same news was repeated that morning but Chester was watching cartoon in the sittingroom. He didn’t bother to change the channel when his father came down.
“Good morning, Dad” He greeted without looking at him.
“Morning, son. I want to watch news”
“Okay, Dad” he quickly changed the channel to CNN. He listened carefully just like Mr Anuma did but he couldn’t believe his ears and eyes.
“Dad, when did this happen?” he asked looking at his father.
“It happened yesterday. Almost all the passengers died” he replied.
“What?! But my best friend traveled to London yesterday. Does it mean that he’s dead?”
“Which airport and airplane did your friend board?”
“Lagos airport”
“This particular one is from Abuja” the father replied then Chester exhaled deeply.
“Thank God?” he exclaimed and picked up his phone to call Wisdom. He entered in,side the room when the phone started ringing.
“Xup bro” he shouted happily.
“Chester!” Wisdom called on the phone. Please, I’m just putting on my phone now and you are the first to call me. I have been trying to reach my parents even Mr Anuma but there are not reachable. Please, help me go to the school and tell him that i have reached my destination”
“Okay bro, anything for you” Chester replied. He dressed up and headed to WISS immediately.

Nobody had answered Vivian’s question to reduce her curiosity thereby making her to imaging who this Wisdom is to Tochi that makes her cry uncontrollably. Assembly was about to start and students who came to Tochi were given a wrong information. Suddenly, Chester arrived. He when straight to Mr Anuma’s office but didn’t see he him then he went to Tochi’s classroom and found her crying. Vivian stared at him with her hands folded trying to know the root of the situation.
“Why are you crying?” Chester asked Tochi. “I just called Wisdom now” he added and Tochi stood up sharply.
“You mean you talked to him?” she asked.
“Yes, he said i should inform Mr Anuma that he has reached his destination”
“But i heard Mr Anuma and the principal talking about plane crash”
“Yeah, but that wasn’t Wisdom’s plane. Is that why you are crying?”
Suddenly, Mr Anuma and the principal arrived from Airport where they went to inquire the rightful information and was told it wasn’t Wisdom’s plane..
 
The bell rang immediately for assembly and students began to form their lines on the assembly ground. Chester greeted Mr Anuma and the principal when they came down from the car followed by Tochi. While Vivian and Linda were on their way to the assembly ground. They walked like teenage students they were shaking their attractive buttocks and looking beautiful.
“Is it Wisdom the one that won a scholarsh¡p?” Vivian asked Linda.
“Yes” she replied.
“Is he a brother to Tochi?”
“No”
“Then why was she crying as if they are related?”
“Everybody loves Wisdom especially Tochi”
“What do you mean? You mean they are dating?”
“So you thought you are the only one who has a boyfriend that is schooling abroad, abi?” Linda smiled.
“Hmm, i never knew they are dating” Vivian replied and gave out a smile but feeling both jealous and heartbroken. She understood that it was the same Wisdom who she was crushing on but kept quiet.
“Now, you know they are dating so make sure you don’t snatch him away from Tochi” Linda jokingly said. “Anyway, where will you even see him?” she added and Vivian smiled unwillingly.

Mr Anuma exhaled with smiles on his face when he saw Tochi and Chester. He stood behind with them while the principal went into his office thanking God.
“Finally, it wasn’t Wisdom’s airplane so calm down, Demand” Mr Anuma said.
“Thank you sir, Chester here even confirmed it” Tochi replied.
“How?” Mr Anuma Looked at Chester.
“I called him, so he said i should tell you that he has reached his destination successfully” Chester explained.
“When did you call him?”
“Few minutes ago, sir. According to him, he was unable to reach you and his parents”
“Oh Lala!” Mr Anuma exclaimed. “I believe it must the enc-mbrance and insufficient network of this our country! This is so bad! I think this hocuspocus network of ours needs exigency expansionism! God!” he concluded angrily then Chester and Tochi looked at each other and smiled.
“Sir, i will be on my way now?” Chester said.
“Alright, thank you for the information” he walked into the assembly ground with Tochi simultaneously.

# BREAK_TIME
Vivian, knowing that Tochi and Wisdom were dating she began to look for a way to get her linked up with Kingsley so that she will totally be Wisdom’s. She sat on her seat staring at the wall. “I will make him love me” she began to think. “I must make him believe that Tochi is cheating on him, then when i finally gain his trust, after my waec i will meet him in London..”
“Vivian! Vivian!!” Tochi interrupted by shaking her. “What are you thinking?!” she asked.
“Don’t mind me dear, seat with me” she replied then Tochi sat down. “How much do you know Kingsley?” she asked.
“I have known him right from my SS2. Why asking” Tochi looked at her.
“Nothing much, just that they guy is good”
“That’s true”
“Don’t you like him?”
“I like him” Tochi smiled and looked at her again. “You are sounding strange. Xup with you?”
“He really loves you”
“Who?”
“Kingsley, i mean that guy is crazy inlove with you” Vivian replied but Tochi kept quiet with a frowned face. “I think you should give him a chance” Vivian suggested.
“No, i have a boyfriend already”
“Who? Wisdom?” Vivian wanted to be sure.
“Who told you?”
“Do i need someone to tell me? Of course i saw how you were crying this morning because of him”
Tochi smiled. “Well, that’s true, i love him so much” she said smiling.
“You don’t know what he will be doing there with girls or maybe forget about you totally when he sees pretty girls there. So you better give Kingsley a chance too” Vivian persuaded.
Hearing that, Tochi’s heart began 2 beat faster. She stared at her in thought blinking her eyes occasionally.
“No, Wisdom can’t do such a thing. I trust him” she said.
“Really?” Vivian asked but she didn’t reply rather she walked out.

MR SILVA’S RESIDENT
Chester went home and found his parents gone so he thought that would be a good time to invite Esther over, then he jumped on the bed with his phone on his ear.
“Hello sweetheart!” he shouted smiling.
“Hmm, when did you start calling me sweetheart?” Esther asked from the phone.
“From today”
“Thank you”
“Can you please come over to my house?”
“But i don’t know your house”
“That’s the reason why you should come”
Esther thought for a while and said, “Send me the address”
“Okay, sweetheart” the line went dead.
Chester did as she requested and few minutes later Esther began to knock at the gate. The gateman, Shehu let her in after Chester instructed him to do so.
“Wow!” Esther exclaimed admiring the furnitures in the sittingroom. “You mean you are the only one in this big house?”
“Yes, is no big deal” Chester replied and told her to sit down.
“What can i offer you?”
“Nothing oh, you have offered me enough by allowing this AC to cool my body temperature” Esther replied and  they laughed. Just then, they heard the horn of a car at the gate-Mrs Silva and Maria were coming..
Esther wore a tight red gown with a red wetl¡ps. She was startled and glanced at the door when she heard the sound of the car at the gate, then her heart began to beat faster to the extent she stood up from her seat. Of course Chester noticed her fear so he told her to stay calmed.
Meanwhile, Mrs Silva and Maria walked majestically from the car into the house. They were looking classic and beautiful. Maria wore a blue fairy gown with a blue hair on her head, even her bag had the same colour. They entered into the sittingroom then Esther stood up instantly.
“Good day ma’am” she greeted with her hands folded downward.
“Good day” Mrs Silva responded and looked at her up and down. Maria also disdained her before sitting down.
“Welcome, Mum” Chester also greeted standing close to Esther.
“Thank you. Who is she?” the mother asked with a leg on the stairs waiting to climb up.
“Mum, her name is Esther. She’s my friend and also my classmate”
“Okay” she replied and took two stepped up the stairs but turned again. “Who are your parents?” she asked Esther.
“They are Mr And Mrs Godwin, ma’am” she replied feeling her heartbeat.
Mrs Silva waited for a moment before she said, “I hope you know that your classmate will be traveling abroad in few days..?”
“Mum..” Chester interrupted.
“Shut up!” the mother rebuked him and turned to Esther again.
“Yes, Ma’am, i am aware” Esther replied and bent her head downward.
“Okay, that’s good” Mrs Silva said. “Chester, you need a time with Maria” she added and went upstairs then Maria stood up gently. She wanted to touch Chester but he withdrew himself.
“Just seat down!” he commanded her.
Meanwhile, Esther had took off to the door.
“Esther! Esther!!” Chester pursued her. But before he got outside he saw her running towards the gate. She opened it and vanished instantly…

#SCHOOL_OVER
Kingsley quickly rushed Tochi when he saw that she was ready to go home. Meanwhile, Mr Anuma had called Wisdom’s parents and informed them that he had reached his destinations. They were so glad to hear that.
“Can i talk to you, please?” Kingsley asked Tochi.
“About what?” she asked and adjusted towards a palm tree.
“About us” Kingsley began. “You need to understand how i feel for you. I really love..”
“Kingsley, it cannot work” Tochi interrupted.
“But why? I love you so much”
“You should know why because you are not new in this school. I have to go please” Tochi walked out.
Kingsley went back to his classroom sluggishly. He sat down quietly gazing at the floor. He sometimes looked out through the window to see if there would be anything that would drive away the sadness in him. Suddenly, Vivian arrived with her bag on her back.
“Hi” she said.
“Haven’t you gone?” Kingsley asked looking at the window.
“No, still waiting for my driver”
“Okay”
They remained quiet then Vivian took a seat.
“Did you talk to her?” she asked.
“Yes, but.. but..”
“I understand, just try to sent her a present” Vivian interrupted.
“Really?”
“Yes” she smiled.
“I will do anything just to hear her say she loves me”
“Then push on, I’m at your side” vivian stood up and walked out when she saw her driver.

Chester angrily walked back in,side the house. He found his mother coming down the stairs while Maria sat on the cushion with her legs crossed.
“Where is your classmate?” Mrs Silva asked from the stairs.
“She has gone, mum”
“So soon? Well, you should stop mingling with lowlife girls and concentrate on your education” she gradually sat down. “I have prepared your papers” she added.
“Paper? For what?”
“For your trip”
“Mum, please, don’t do this to me”
“Chester, stop sounding like a local child” Maria interfered.
“Shut up there!” Chester shouted pointing his fingers at her which started both her and her mother.
“Chester, have you gone nut?!” the mother exclaimed.
“Mum, i don’t like what you are doing?” he stood up to walked out.
“Don’t you dare walk out on me!” he stopped without looking back. “Whether you like it or not you are leaving this country in the next few days! Do you understand me?!”
Chester entered into his room without responding.
*
Esther ran into her room with tears in her eyes. She cleaned it occasionally but it was still pouring out. Suddenly, she saw her phone ringing but refused to pick it even when she knew it was Chester. But when he persisted, she picked up.
“Please, forgive me” Chester pleaded on the phone.
“Is okay, you haven’t done anything wrong. I should be the one apologizing for interrupting you and your guest”
“She’s not my guest! She’s my mum’s! Please, don’t take it that way”
“I need to be alone now” Esther concluded and cut the call.

8:30pm
Vivian couldn’t wait for Wisdom to put her call when she dialed his number. She stood in front of a standing mirror in a her room admiring her attractive unclad body as she waited, but there was no response. She dialed the number again for the second time before Wisdom picked…
