CHAPTER EIGHT

Ngozi’s pov ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

As we were saying earlier, tutorial don turn party !

I listen to ‘party scatter ‘ blasting from the stereos, I have to confirm what they are doing in,side biko

Maybe it was the devil’s doing o or it’s my own inquisitiveness, I opened the glass panelled door.

I was assaulted by the smell of weed and smoke.

I couldn’t even admire the beautiful interior of the house.

” well, isn’t this the so-called most popular girl in school, I’m sorry we didn’t ask for a waitress ”

Amanda said to me with a malicious smile.
My brain did a quick reboot.
Immediately all the eyes of everyone in the house were glued on me.
I stare at Amanda, with her designer body hugging tank top and her cut off th-gh length jeans, even the sneakers she wore scre-med ‘money’
I mean everyone were dressed in a classy way
I look at my ‘Emily gown’ that was almost touching my knees and the black and white rubber sandals, the heavy school bag that I carried with me didn’t help matters either.

Most people were laughing at me!
I feel so out of place here
I feel like a masquerade at a teaparty

” Awwwn sweetie, don’t look so sad, I could use a maid at home ” Amanda continued in her sweet sugary voice, each word laced with sarcasm.
Her friend Tife sat by her side, they were the baddest bitches in school, as in if you don’t know Amanda and Tife, you don’t exist in Princeton college.

Kate and Bukky were giving me a sympathetic look in their corner.
” I didn’t know you were dumb also ” she continued

I hate you Donald!
For not telling me that this is a party
But I’ll be dammed if I let Amanda win in a tangle of words against me.

” I have my reasons for dressing this way, and last time I checked, the way I dress is no one’s business, everyone knows you’re so desperate to be Princeton queen, don’t tell me you’re intimidated by my popularity ”

I and Amanda became the center of attention, I know they were already scoring us in their minds.

Amanda just gave me a bright smile

” you sound pretty chill, why not come sit with us, it’s going to be so much fun” she said while puffing out cigarette smoke.

I don’t trust her but I can’t come and lose face

” gladly ” I say and I walked with what I hope is a sโ‚ฌร—y catwalk to Amanda and Tife’s table

Chilling with the most high geng!

Francis pov
I and Ahmed sit in Jerry’s parlor
” this guy should come out na”
” Abi he don go lock himself for in,side room ”

That’s Jerry for you, he hates socializing with people and I and Ahmed have been bugging him to come with us to Donald’s party.

His mom came out from the kitchen, his mom always dressed gorgeously, she is a natural socialite, his dad is a popular TV presenter and his shows are very dope, I just always wonder how two outgoing people like that could give birth to a nerdy child like Jerry.

” I’m sorry guys, Jerry still hasn’t come out from his room abi? ”
“yes ma” I and Ahmed say at the same time
” I’ll go fetch him ”
She walk out of the passage way and I could hear her pounding furiously on Jerry’s door

A minute later Jerry came to join us in the parlor with an unhappy look
” why are you disturbing me, I told you I’m not going to a party ”
” believe me , I have no intention of going to the party, remember what you told me about Donald, I’m only going to make sure Ngozi is safe ”
I say with a solemn look
At least that’s mostly true!

That seemed to get to him, he took a deep breath
” OK, let me get dressed ”
He returned a minute later dressed in suit, complete with bow tie and he was trying to put on his cuff links
I and Ahmed open our mouths in shock
” where do you think you’re going to dressed up like that, it’s an evening party and not a wedding!!!!!” I shout at him

He gave me a frustrated look and placed his hands on his head
” alright what does one wear to an evening party ”
” one wears cool clothes ” Ahmed said
” Ahmed you know what, don’t let us continue wasting our time, let us go and help him choose the clothes ”
We go to Jerry’s room and help him pick a cool Jean outfit.
” Ahmed, kola don update me for whatsapp, he talk say security no go open gate for you if you no get Id card and if you enter, the place wey you go trekk sef don reach a wh0le village ”
” Chaii! wetin we go do like this, Jerry Abeg give us ideas, we no fit trekk o” Ahmed said

He became deep in thought.
” hmmmm!
I have an idea, what if my driver drops us off at the estate ”
What is this one saying sef ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ™„
” Jerry please try to talk with sense Na, cars are not allowed in,side the estate ”

” which is why we would keep three bicycles in the booth of the car, I’m sure we can all ride bikes ”

” bravo! Jerry you too much” I say
And me and Ahmed high-fived him

We get to primrose estate after stopping at I and Ahmed’s house to get our Id cards.
I bring out my school bag from the car
” hope you don buy the stuff complete, this nigga gats get high today ”
Ahmed says to me
” yes, everything don set o, but the two of us gats remain sober, I need you to help me keep an eye on Donald ”
Ahmed pats me on the shoulder
” I got your back bro”
I always have this trust in Ahmed’s fighting abilities
I mean! the guy is built like a gangster
But when it comes down to smartness, no one can beat Jerry
With those two, I know that I’m covered

” hey which stuff are you guys talking about ”
Jerry says with a confused look

I and Ahmed exchange secret looks
We both want Jerry to loosen up so we’re going to make him get drunk at the party
All I did was keep a few bottles of highly intoxicating alcohol in my bag
” we’re just talking about the fruit wine I kept in my bag ”

We enter into the estate and began to pedal till we got to the house where the party is taking place.
We parked the bikes and enter the house with swag

#set awon gangster geng
# handsome guy geng
#nerdy guy geng
#weird geng geng

The first person I noticed in the room was Ngozi, we locked eyes with each other and she looked away.
I noticed just her before I noticed that she was sitting with Amanda and Tife and I see no sign of Donald .
Amanda and Tife!
She has a look of ‘ I would rather not be here ‘ on her face although she was smiling brightly
I know this because I know Ngozi too well.

She stood out with her long Emily gown and she seemed unbothered while an average person would be dying with mortification.

” come on have a drink!, don’t tell me you don’t drink”
I hear Amanda say to her
I could see uncertainty and anxiety flash over her face for a millisecond but she threw her head back and flashed her a daredevil smile.
” bring it on! ”
She picked up a bottle of vodka and drank it in gulps

This is getting disastrous!

Chapter nine

Let’s ask ourselves
What is the greatest influencer of an average teenager ?
Could it be family?
Yeah, family could influence you
But family influence is nothing compared to peer pressure
That’s the greatest influence of a teenager
Not just teens, everyone

Ngozi’s pov

I took my second bottle of vodka

I was really feeling myself

I swayed gently to Adekunle Gold’s ‘Jore’

I could feel Francis’s gaze literally burning a h0le through me
But at that moment I didn’t care
I want to go wild

” let’s upgrade ” Amanda said with a wink
She handed me and Tife two bottles of whiskey
Whiskey! Jack Daniels!
I saw Tife gulp her’s down without hesitation
Amanda gave me an impatient look
” come on ” or you want this, she pointed to her cigarette
Cigarette ke!

I gulped down the whiskey and fell in love with the rich and mellow taste.
Amanda walked over to the minibar and returned with a wine glass

I could see Tife giving me a kind of look
She blinked her eyes really fast like she was trying to tell me something
” come on, check this out ” Amanda said handing me the glass
I took a sip from the glass and and almost spluttered it out, it felt like fire was burning my throat and it went directly to my head
‘ what in God’s name is this ”
” chill, can’t you see its white, it’s just spirits and some other stuff I mixed up, it’s really good, but I guess you’re an SU after all ” she said with a devious smile
Why must everyone turn me to their television
I feel like I was being crucified by their stares

” come on drink it”
“drink it! Drink it! Drink it!!! ”
They Chanted
God why me!

I covered my nose with one hand and was about to drink it in a typical herbal concoction way.

Francis was walking towards me with a furious look on his face.
I drank it halfway and paused, it was too scorching
He snatched the glass away from my hands and faced Amanda with a venomous look
” the next time you’re looking for someone to bully, make sure it’s not her!!! ”
She gave a sโ‚ฌร—y laugh
Why do I have the feeling that she was using me as a bait to get to Francis?

” awwnnn, so sweet, heroic boyfriend comes to the rescue ”
” he is not my boyfriend ”
I say rather too quickly
” Cisco um I mean Francis, Ahmed is beckoning you, go to him ”
He gave me an unbelievable look
The guy literally just saved my ass from whatever creepy combination that Amanda mixed up
And I react by sho oing him!
” honestly Ngozi, I really thought you that you’re mature but I guess I was wrong ”
I took a sharp intake of breath
Everyone seemed to be enjoying the scene that was playing out between us
Even those that were smooching stopped to look at us.
I’m pretty sure that I would make the headlines as world dumbest girl at school on Monday
But Francis’s insult stung like a whยกp
My emotions were overheightened because of the alcohol.
Tears spring to my face
” you’re a bastard Francis, you’re nothing but a slithering slippery slimy son of a seadogโ€ฆ

The lights in the hall begins to flash different colors
Even the music changed
It was more like a tune
Like that of a wrestler entering the ring
The words I was saying died in throat
There was only one person that commanded attention like that
Donald!
He wore a casual polo and shorts
And the simple gold on his neck flashed as it caught the light
It feels like this is the first time I’m seeing him
He looks so handsome in home clothes
So different
My eyes roam to the stubble on his jaw and I wonder what k-ssing him would be like

He walked over to me
” if there’s anyone you should blame, it’s me, I’m deeply sorry Ngozi, please forgive me ”
He said softly, giving me a solemn and sincere look and I feel all the anger I felt for him disappear
“you’re forgiven ‘ I try hรฆrd not to slur on the words
” let me give you a tour of the house ”
I slip my hands into his
It feels so right
So natural
And we walked hand in hand, to the envy of others and the anger of Francis
I wonder why he is so angry sef!

Donald’s pov

I hold hands with Ngozi
Manipulating her would be so easy
Judging by Amanda’s clever manipulation
She was drunk
It was obvious from the way she swayed gently
Yet she fought so hรฆrd for control
I wonder what Amanda mixed up!

The first thing I need to do is to let her trust me
And to achieve that, I need to make her feel like we have a lot of things in common
I take her to the library
“This is my favorite place in the house”
I watch her eyes lit up at the sight of so many books
” my God! Meee t..ooooo, I could literally live in here,
I knew it for the first time that I saw you that you’re the quiet type, so why throw a party ”
I looked into her eyes and held her hand as I said the words
” Because other people doesn’t appreciate you for who you are, that’s the only thing I can do to make me seem cool ”
” oh! You want to be Pri..nce.. ton…. Kiiii..nnnng”
” no, I don’t really want to be King, I want you to be queen ”
” bu bu but why? Why me? I I i’mmmm nooot craaazy abouuut beiiiing quueeen”
” it’s because I like you Ngozi, you’re special, from the moment I laid my eyes on you, I knew you’re special, you’re kind, beautiful, smart, intelligent, and your beauty is alluring ”
Tears sprang to her face and she wiped it with the back of her hands

She really was drunk!
And she did something I didn’t expect
She pressed her l-ips against mine and k-ssed me with a ferocious passion that I had no idea that she possessed , it was featherlike , she tasted fruity, a mixture of citrusy fruits.
She pressed her br-asts against me, making those sโ‚ฌร—y mo-ns and I was overcome with the desire to have her right here and now
It took all my reservoir of self control to push her back
No! It has to be perfect
Just like the way it was with the others
It has to be my way
She gave me a hurt look, those chocolate eyes reflected pain
” you’re drunk Ngozi, this is not what you really want ”
” youreeee riiighhht III oooo… nnnlyyy waaanteed tttoo fiiindd ouuuut whaaaaaaat kiissiiinng yyyoouu woouuullld beee liiikeeee” she said in slurs
” well so what was it like ”
” it was magiiical, alluuuring ”
She whispered into my ear
Her hot breath against my ear sent desire shooting through me
Damn! It’s gonna be tough keeping my hands off her!
” come on, let’s go back to the hall before people start getting crazy ideas ”

Francis’s pov

I try hรฆrd to keep track of the conversation
What had Amanda been saying?
It’s glaring that she’s flirting with me, on a normal day I would have been exhilarated by that
But not today and definitely not now
Different thoughts came to my mind
I don’t like the sound of Ngozi being with Donald a bit
There’s too much darkness surrounding that guy
But I can’t barge in like that
I could only pace and prowl and count the remainder of minutes I can actually wait before barging in
I’ve never seen a horrible drinker like Ngozi
That thought brought a smile to my face, making me remember the crazy things I and Ngozi grew up doing
” I wonder what you see in her”
” who? ”
” Ngozi of course, it’s obvious that you’re absolutely crazy about her ” Amanda said with a throathy chuckle
” of course not ”
Ahmed gave me a kind of look, and he began to clench his hands into fists, he had a deadly look on his face
I know he’s as anxious as I am
I give him the eye sign
We were about to barge in when Ngozi and Donald walked into the hall
Ngozi has a total look of adoration for Donald on her face
And I want more than anything to erase that look from her face
She abruptly sat on the floor and picked up someone heels ๐Ÿ‘  and began twirling it In slow circles, like an imaginary fishing hook
” I waaant to caaattchh fiiish”
People’s laughter didn’t help matters either
Oh no!
If looks could kill, I’m sure I would have murdered Amanda on the sโ‚ฑ0t
” last time I checked, I didn’t force it down her throat”
I can’t come and let Ngozi embarrass herself like this!
She has even embarrassed herself already.
I walk towards her and I could see Kate and Bukky rise up from their seats
Donald picks her up
” bu bu buuut I waaannnt to fiiishhhh”
People were a already snapping furiously
Some were even recording videos
He picked up his phone and made a call
Immediately his chauffeur came to him
” bring out the sports car, I have to drop her off at home ”
” no I’m not sure you mean that because I would be dropping her home myself ” I say to him with a cold look
We just stood there staring at each other, unyielding, each challenging the other to back off
” and besides, I know her house not you ”
He gave me an unreadable look
” Matthew, drop them off wherever they’re going ”
” OK sir”

I, Ngozi, Ahmed and Jerry sit in the car a minute later
And I was praying so hรฆrd for Ngozi not to throw up in the car
I rested her head on my lap and began to stroke her back
” ciiiscooo III miiiisss youuu”
” you’re drunk Ngozi ”
I stopped the car at my house
And say goodbye to Ahmed and Jerry
I piggy back Ngozi
Then I remembered that her father is around
I can’t take her home like this!
I wonder where to go from here?
