TRUTH AND LIES
(Jeremy and I)
Episode 15
I heard a loud bang in my head as I opened my eyes in shock
Mi…what?
“It can’t be” I told her, my voice echoing with shock.
“Of course it is Alyssa think about it. He’s the only one they powerful enough to do such a thing”.
“But why would be do something like that for me? He doesn’t know me””
“Well ,I guess that’s what you should be thinking about – what are his reasons?”
I looked at her and scoffed. Mico? I can’t believe it. There’s no way it can be possible.
Why would Mico do all these for me? What could possibly be his reasons?
But thinking about it, I think Sandy is right. Mico is the only one powerful enough to break the rules of the organisation.
But why me?
You need to get ready for trouble Alyssa, because you just got yourself a whole lot of enemies” Sandy said and my heart gave a leap.
Oh, God! Please I don’t want any trouble; not at all .
“Many of the students are angry over your special involvement in the contest. And since you’ve become so famous overnight, the other contestants are going to see you as a very big challenge.”
I gulped nervously and took my eyes to the floor. Will I be able to cope?
“But you know” she continued “I love making friends with people that are famous because it makes me famous as well. So can we be friends?”
I looked at her and smiled. She was already stretching out her hand for a handshake.
“Of course” I replied her and rook the handshake and she also smiled. I think I like her already.
“Uhm…Sandy” I called and brought out the phone packed from my bag.
“Mr Fredo gave it to me”.
She gasped as she dragged it From my hands and opened it immediately
“The principal?” She asked and I nodded
She brought out the phone and damn…It was so big and classic. I still can’t believe it’s mine.
“Oh my God Alyssa. Is this really yours? Sandy asked, agaped.
“Do…do you know how much this is? This can actually buy a house”.
My eyes deemed and she giggled.
“Just kidding. But it’s really really expensive. This model is rare to come by. Did you say the principal gave it to you?” She asked, Turning on the phone.
“Well yes. That’s what he told me.”
“Are you sure? What if your secret helper is still responsible for this?” She asked smiling at me and I sighed.
I still can’t believe this Mico stuff. I’m pretty sure he’s not the one.
Then, who could it be?
The phone W’s now on completely and Sandy started operating it.
“It seems a you’ve been added to the school’s group chat already” she said.
“School’s group chat?” I asked.
“Yes. It’s a forum where almost all the students in Mico High talk and interact with one another especially after school hours.
“Take a look, Alyssa. Everyone’s talking about you”.
I collected the phone from jet and woah! My pictures were everywhere!
I blushed and Sandy took the phone from me.
Immediately, there ladies walked in.
“That’s ivy -one of the contestants” Sandy said to me, referring to the one in the middle.
I swallowed hard as the lady got to where I was. She gave me an angry stare before passing by with her friends.
“I told you you’ll be having a lot of enemies’ Sandy whispered to me and I sighed.
Then next came Alexa with her two companions as well. She rolled her eyes at me before taking a seat in the front row.
Sandy looked at me and shrugged.
Another lady walked in again and Sandy told me she was Chloe.
Then Daisy also walked in, but she didn’t pay attention to me like the others. She just kept operating her phone and walked over to her seat.
Hm. I could smell trouble coming.
Soon, the class became filled up and we had three classes before break. We had made use of the big flat screen TV during Biology class and it was so much fun. Too bad I couldn’t entirely enjoy it because I had too many thoughts running through my mind.
“Let’s have lunch together” Sandy told me as students started walking out of the class.
“Okay. But I need to wee” I told her and she nodded and started leading me to the restroom.
I kept staring at the floor since all the students were just staring at me. Am I really fit to be here?
Soon, we got to the restroom and wow! It was so big and everywhere was neat and sparkling.
“That’s the girls restroom” she told me.
“Uh…you know what? I just remembered something. So I’m heading to the library right now. When you’re done, can you meet me over there?” She asked.
“O…okay. sure” I replied perfunctorily.
“Okay. See you then” she told me and left and I placed my hand on my chest.
Oh, God! How can she leave me all alone in this place?
I gulped nervously and started walking into the restroom. The restroom seemed quite and perhaps it was a good thing because I wasn’t ready to face any students.
I got to one of the toilets and rushed to the seat, finally letting out the liquid.
There were so many things to wee out -my fear, questions, anxiety…everything! I needed to flush them out. If only they could go along with it.
I placed my chin on my hand and sighed. I didn’t feel like leaving the toilet. Maybe this should be my new class.
I thought about everything I’ve been going through. Could it be possible Mico was really the one behind my free admission and registration into the contest?
But he didn’t know me before now. Even yearaterday when he asked me to sit with him at the cafeteria, he had also asked me about it. Could it be possible he was just pretending?
But what could Mico’s reasons be for helping me? Why someone like me?
I think there’s a twist somewhere and I needed to find out.
After spending about ages in the toilet, I decided to go and check for Sandy in the library.
I stood up from the toilet seat and washed my hands in the wash basin and after that, left the room.
I was about walking out when I heard strange sounds in the room next it the one I used.
I thought there was no one here?
I drew near and…wait; there were se.xual m0ans.
What…what was going on?
