(021 - Pettiness 2.0.)
Hey guys!
So, this week wasn't a good week for me. I had the worst case of Malaria. It was so terrible that I just kept vomiting back to back (and I don't vomit on a norms).
But I'm getting better now, thank God for that. Thank you to everyone that checked up on me when I posted on my IG story. You guys are the best. I'm taking the time off from work to recover.
With that being said😌, I have a feeling there would be a lot of screaming from you guys in this chapter. The title of the chapter says it all. You'll be seeing everyone dishing out their own doze of pettiness. I'm so excited 🤣🔥.
Lets dive into the chapter 😌.
(I swear, writing this chapter gave me so much joy)⋆ ⋆ ⋆ ⋆

(Hilary Idara Eghosa)I couldn't keep my eyes off Dawn and Sochima as they chatted. I wasn't able to hear their conversation from where I was sitting, but I could see them, meaning I could see every expression on Dawn's face as he spoke to her and the same thing for him when Dawn was speaking. There was so much genuinity, and dare I say it... a whole lot of chemistry involved with both of them.
It was radiating from the bar table to this place. I could feel it.
Hopefully, Semeeha and I made the right decision by telling her to go for it. The last thing we wanted was for history to repeat itself.
"Gosh, I can believe she'd wear that to a party!" Semeeha lamented beside me, causing me to shift my attention away from Dawn and Sochima just to look at her.
"Hmmnn?" I asked, confused as to why she had spoken like that, or who she was talking about.
"Gigi Esho, of course." She answered, nodding her head towards a direction. "What the hell is she trying to prove by wearing that?" The way Semeeha said that was with so much irritation. I decided to follow her gaze to what she was talking about... or rather, who.
And my eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets when they landed on the Head Girl of Crestview International Academy, standing by the bar, likely ordering a drink.
I have always known Gigi Esho to be daring. I mean, she was the first person that started to alter the school uniform to fit her taste. She changed all her school shirts to crop tops and all her skirts were fitted. She started doing that two weeks after she resumed at Crestview in JSS2, and she was still able to score the position of head girl. Gigi was bold.
But this? Girl had a whole lot of nerve.
Gigi Esho's dressing was simple but showed a lot of skin. She was wearing a black LOUNGE branded bralette and grey mum jeans. But the jeans were low waist, the zipper and fly were off, revealing a matching LOUNGE thong. She finished off the look with white kicks and a white bandana wrapped around the blond wig she was wearing.
Her face was mostly devoid of makeup, safe for the lipgloss she had on her full lips, but it didn't stop her from looking drop-dead gorgeous. All the guys walking past where she was standing surely stopped to give her a second... or third look.
I mean, who wouldn't? She was Gigi Esho. She's Hot.
(Gigi's outfit for the night. Yup, she's daring😌)
"Bold," I commented and Semeeha looked at me weirdly. "She's bold," I repeated and the slim girl beside me scoffed, rolling her eyes.
"More like stupid!" She spat out disdainfully. "I mean, does she have any style at all? Who wears something like that to a freaking party?!" She pretty much shrieked. I fought the urge to roll my eyes.
Ah, Semeeha. Let it go!
"Apparently, Gigi Esho," I answered her and she rolled her eyes again. "And whether you agree or not, she's killing the look." I chipped.
"Right, whatever," Semeeha muttered, chugging down whatever drink was in her cup at a go.
I glanced back at Gigi just in time to see her flip her hair over her shoulder, exposing her back to me while twirling her phone in her hand. But that wasn't what caught my attention. It was the now exposed scribble on the small of her back. A scribble in black ink.
My eyes went huge in realization.
Gigi has a tattoo!
"Oh my God, she has a tattoo." I awed, calling Semeeha's attention back to the discussion. When she looked confused, I nodded towards Gigi. Semeeha saw the tattoo and snorted.
I wasn't surprised at her reaction, at all.
"The Head girl has a tattoo." She mused, sarcasm dripping from her voice. Then, she scoffed again. "How irresponsible. She is not fit to be the head girl and the school should know that!" She stated, harshness evident in her tone.
"And who is going to tell the school authorities that she has a tattoo? You?" I asked, my left brow raised in question. Semeeha rolled her eyes back at me but said nothing.
Hmmm, I thought so. I thought, chuckling to myself as I sipped my coke, bobbing my head to the music that was playing.
So far, I was enjoying the party. I've been on my own, in my circle with no one to disturb me.
The performance from the Dance team lifted my spirit. Jidenna was nowhere in sight so there was no bad energy lurking around me. Dawn was talking with a guy she liked. Semeeha was being Semeeha, picking faults in everyone's dressing for the night. Kizito was somewhere, enjoying himself and probably getting drunk with the rest of the football team.
