“Yes tell me who did this to my poor son and I will make sure I deal with the person” Mrs Emery said checking his body.
Cindy fumes. “Mum there is no need for that am okay, moreover I am the caused of everything that happened “Romeo said.
“Ever if you are the cause I don’t give anybody the right to raised hand on you” Mrs. Emery said.
“Then you should have built a school here for me so no one can touch me” Romeo said.
“You don’t have manners is that how you speak to your parent” Cindy said.
“When did you became chief adviser?” Romeo asked.
“mitcheeeww” Cindy hissed and went into her room.
“Mum I was only joking with you, all I wanted to say is that I can take care of myself, am a grown up guy not your small baby of yesterday” Romeo said.
“Are you sure of this?” Mrs. Emery asked.
“Yes am sure you don’t need to disturb yourself, I will always be fine” Romeo said and hold her hand.
“If you insist, but I will not tolerate it if anyone raised hands on my children, I love you my child” Mrs. Emery said and hugged him passionately.
Cindy came out just that minute and saw them. Her anger rises.
“Come my child let me apply ointment on the mark” Mrs. Emery said.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Cindy became more and more angry that she almost burst.
Romeo sighted her.
“Cindy come closer “Romeo said.
“All my effort to create distance between him and my parent prove abortive but no matter what I won’t give up, I will make sure I distance you from them and he will have to suffer in their hands that no one will tell him before he leave this house” Cindy thought evilly.
“Common sisi why do you stay there come and apply the ointment on my face” Romeo said childishly.
“Why do you stand there your brother said you should come and apply ointment on his face” Mrs. Emery said.
“Okay mum” Cindy said in a low voice and walked slowly to them.
“Sit” Romeo said and help her to sit down.
“Why do you look unhappy my daughter?” Mrs. Emery asked.
“Nothing mum, is just have a slight headache” Cindy lied.
“Sorry my dear let me go and get you drugs” Mrs. Emery said and kissed her fore head.
“No mum you know am not a lover of drugs, I will be okay” Cindy said.
“No you need to take drugs” Mrs. Emery said.
“Mum don’t force her, I think a head massage will do, I will massage her head and she will apply the ointment on my face” Romeo said.
“That’s a good idea” Mrs. Emery said.
“Cindy you can always try to distance yourself from me but I will always disturb and care for you till you love me has a sister will do.
Sm tired of being love by everyone without my sister among them” Romeo thought to himself.
“Mum seems to care about you Romeo but it will be good for me if dad find out about this he will surely get angry at you’ Cindy thought evilly.
“Common Cindy apply the ointment” Romeo said and take his face closer to her.

Pamela POV
I was in my room trying to digest what happened earlier in school and what Vicky said those two things get me worried that I couldn’t think straight.
I was really angry and also reckless.
I haven’t do the assignment we were given. no one to share my worries with I can’t let Annie and Joyce know about Romeo. “No he is not brilliant than me” I shouted and hold my ears.
I took the pillow and threw it away angrily. I need to do my assignment I must proved to him am more intelligent than him. I should write this in my dairy.
I took my laptop and open my notepad.
MY WORSTED DAY EVER THAT I FELT RECKLESS AND DEFEATED that was the heading after the heading I typed everything that happened to me today. BUT I PROMISE YOU DIARY THAT I WON’T DISAPPOINT YOU, that was my last statement.
I feel more relaxed after putting down everything that happened in my dairy.

Annie and Joyce look at each other and looked at Pamela.
Tears dropped down Pamela cheeks. she rushed out of the class without uttering a word.
“I don’t believe this fool he’s lieing to everyone” Kiles said.
“And who beg you to believe me, only a fool will wait to listen to your trash. Angela common” Romeo said and went out of the class.

“You want to know?” Romeo asked. “Yes I want to know” Angela replied.
“There’s is no point in lieing to her she seems to be nice and won’t give me headache” Romeo thought.
“Why do you became silence all of a sudden?” Angela asked. “I did the assignment, it’s very simple and easy for me” Romeo said.
“Are you kidding me, but you said you are a dullard” Angela said.
“That is just a pretence, am just pretending, so has to avoid the girls attention, I hate girls chasing after me.
I told you this because I see you to be a reasonable girl and moreover I need to help you with your studies, I can’t continue to do it for you” Romeo explained.
“You are so different everyone usually boost of being brilliant but you are hidding it. although am lucky I finally see someone who’s ready to help me with my studies I will be grateful for that” Angela said.
“I can see you are falling for his trap. he can never contribute anything positive to your life, so I will advise you to stay away from someone like him before he ruin your life” Pamela said and stand right Infront of their table at the carteen.
“What’s your problem tell me i want to know, why are you always against me” Since I came to this school?” Romeo asked.
“You are my real problem the reason j have to shed tears” Pamela said.
“I think you shedding tears is because you have an ocean of tears in your eyes and you didn’t know how to get rid of it” Romeo said.
“Angela leave right now I want to have a word with him” Pamela command.
“Is that a command or request. well let me tell you, you came to meet her here and she can never leave here for you” Romeo said.
“Then I will exposed your secret to everyone” Pamela challenged.
“SECRET, I don’t have any bad secret so you can go ahead and say whatever you like” Romeo said.
“Romeo I think you should listen to her I will leave now” Angela said and stood up to go. Romeo hold her back.
“You won’t leave let her say whatever she has to say right Infront of you. and if she can’t say it let her f*ck off” Romeo said.
“Attention please” Pamela called. “No Pamela, I will leave” Angela said and stopped her for calling everyone attention. Angela leave.
“Who did this girl think she’s and what exactly did she know about me that she wanted to expose” Romeo thought.
“Hey how do you see that, I am a good player I will have just blackmail you if she hasn’t leave” Pamela said and sit right Infront of his table.
“What do you know about me, hmm?” Romeo asked.
“Why asking you shouldn’t be scared since you don’t have a dirty secret” Pamela said smiling.
“Stop beating around the bush, go straight to the point what do you know about me?” Romeo asked.
“Stop asking me that question.
I just came here to warn you because I won’t hesitate to deal with you if you cross my part ever again” Pamela said with an evil grin.
“Silly girl with silly attitude, you stink” Romeo said and stood up.
“How dare you” Pamela shouted and hold his collar.
