TRAUMA (Pains of Love) - Season 2 - Episode 9

☆☆☆☆
* * *
PRESTIGIOUS INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL.
(INSIDE THE CLASS)
:

The class became as silent as a grave yard. Everyone waited for me to make a decision. I felt very happy deep inside coz I was going to atleast do something painful to Joy but I knew she would later come to fight me. I glanced at her direction. She had braided her hair, and I knew knocking her wouldn’t be painful, so I decided to flog her.

“Becky!” the literature teacher called.

“Ma, I choose flogging.”

“Wonderful!” she exclaimed and ordered Joy to come out and kneel infront of the class which she did while I picked up the long big cane that was on top of Queen’s table and advanced towards Joy who while kneeling down was giving me looks to kill. The teacher asked me to land her three strokes of the cane on her back.

Omo! Come see as I use swag dey flog person. I hit her very hard with the cane, making her shout and her voice echoing and reverberating on the walls of the class.

After the flogging and drama that followed thereafter, the teaching began. Just like every other day, the teachers came one after the other like one stream flowing into another and there was no chance for discussion of any sort.

We had biology last period before break and the teacher asked me to follow her to the staff room for the extra class earlier promised.

I came back to the class after break and we had two more teaching period before school over…
:
Soon, it was after school and immediately the teacher walked out of the class, Joy rushed to my seat and pulled me up by my shirt colar with force. Though I knew it would inevitably come to that, I was scared of getting my uniform torned in the process incase any fight ensued.

“Joy! What’s the meaning of this?” I asked.

“What do you think it is?” she questioned back. Members of my class gathered as usual but Queen just laughed, picked up her school bag and left the class.

David locked my locker, put the key in his trouser pocket and came to stand behind me while Peace stood behind Joy.

“Let go my uniform,” I said calmly.

“Why did you flog me?”

“Well if you must know, I flogged you so as to enable you regain back you lost senses,” I replied.

“Really!”

“Yes! Now let go of my uniform,” I repeated but surprisingly, she raised her hand and before I could say anything, landed me a resounding slap. I couldn’t bear it, so I pushed her backwards forcefully and also landed her a slap on both cheeks.

“That’s alright,” David pleaded, holding me from behind While Peace held Joy.

“Allow them to fight,” Some members of my class chanted but David ignored me. Picked up my biology textbook which he had removed from my locker and his notepad, then led me out of the class. Joy wanted following us but I guess Peace prevented her from doing so…

OUTSIDE
:
David and I didn’t say anything to anyone till we were outside the school compound.

“Thanks for not allowing me fight. Atleast I’m happy I doubled the slap she gave me,” I said as we walked along our normal route.

“She won’t give up anytime soon but don’t worry I know what to do,” David smiled.

“What will you do?”

“Relax and keep calm.”

“Hmm! Okay o, will you be at home today?” I asked.

“Yes, why?”

“My mom want to come see your father and I thought of coming with her.”

“Wow! That means you missed me?” David grinned.

“I didn’t.”

“It’s a lie, you did.”

“I said I didn’t.”

“Becky say the truth and shame the devil.”

“David, I did not miss you.”

David sighed. “Okay, no problem.”

“Good,” I said. Deep down my heart, I knew I missed him but I didn’t just want to admit it so it won’t lead to something else.

Soon David began to smile.

“What’s do you find so amusing?” I asked.

“The kiss, just wish I could get more of it.”

I smiled too, “David, you should know that kiss was a mistake, I was only carried away.”

“Yea, a mistake but you enjoyed it and that’s why you couldn’t reject nor stop me.”

I didn’t want to argue with him, so I asked instead. [b]“What did your sister say?”

“About?” he glanced at me.

“Come on, don’t pretend, the kiss of course,” I hit him playfully.

David’smile widened, “She said we shouldn’t talk about that on our way back from school.”

“It’s a lie.”

“Do I look like a liar to you?
“David?”

“Becky?”
I hissed and collected my textbook from him.

“Won’t you ask me how I knew you’d be reading biology tonight?” he asked but I ignored him. Just then, as we reached the tarred road and was about crossing to the path that would lead to our house, I sighted Queen who ran towards us, surprising me.

When she reached where we stood, she held David’s hand. “I want to come to your house today, David!” she said, breathing heavily from the short race she had just done…
