Janet's POV

"Channelle!" I ran holding my bag tightly to meet up with her


"Hey Janet" she smiled


"Oh please, save your smile," I said breathing fast "I've been calling you for the past 1 minute" I  stretched my bag towards her for her to carry


" 1 minute? Mehn! People have been calling me since I was born" she grabbed the bag with force 

"Can we go already?" I asked standing upright, adjusting my blazer and bow tie. As the head girl, you have all eyes on you, make a mistake... Just make a mistake then you'll know what happens.


"Not without me!!" Amarachi yelled cat walking to us


"Hey, beautiful babes!" She jumped on us grabbing our shoulders tightly


"If you keep holding me like that, I don't think you would be able to call me beautiful" Channelle wiggled out of her strong grip, she straightened her blazer that was already rumpled.


"Okay, okay. Let's go" Amarachi said


"So! I have a gift for you guys!!" Channelle announced, moving her shoulders happily


"Yay! Is it food?" Amarachi asked


"Food ko, see your mouth! It is only food you know" I said


"What else do you expect me to know? Boys? Nah, I'll fly fence. Anything that doesn't have to do with food, I'm not around"


"Including my gift?" Channelle asked


"Nope. That one is different"


"Good morning Seniors" A junior student passed us


"Ah! So they can greet?" Channelle asked looking surprised


"When you're walking with the head girl of this prestigious school, what do you expect?" I bragged, raising my shoulders a little bit high


"Abeg! Shift!" Amarachi pushed me climbing the stairs


"Please excuse me," Channelle said, trying not to laugh. She ran up the stairs to meet Amarachi, after reaching the end of the stairs together, they looked down and started hailing me at the top of their voice.


I smiled sheepishly and shyly as I ascended the stairs, all eyes were on me while they were hailing me loudly other students started hooting and clapping loudly.  I've been a good head girl

We stepped into the class together, eyes still on me-us.


"Oya! Stop looking it's okay" Amarachi said


"Is it your eyes? Or can't we look again?" Kachi asked with her glossy lips
