Episode 38

Hannah handed me a piece of paper, it had something wrapped inside it. I unwrapped it slowly, wondering what it was. I poured its content into my palm, and looked at Hannah in amazement.

“What is this?” I asked, facing Hannah with a surprise look on my face
“Its a tablet, you should know it, your mum is a nurse” Hannah replied
“So why do I need the tablet?”
“it will prevent you from getting pregnant ”
As i turned away from Hannah, the enormity of what i had done began to sink in. I could get pregnant from all the activities of the previous night. In fact my whole life could change.

I threw the tablets down my throat and swallowed It. I prayed silently that It worked.
We walked slowly into the classroom, to continue the day’s learning. I had started finding school very boring. I spent most of my time in the classroom secretly chatting with Ehis.
It seemed As though he had completely taken over my life. All that I could look forward to was sneaking out to meet him. I wondered if i was still normal.

The bell signaling the beginning of the last lecture before break rang. it was time to abscond from school again, Hannah and Ruth clutched to their school bags and headed out of the classroom.

I had made up my mind not to follow them. First, i had no idea where they were going, and I already had plans with Ehis later in the day. I felt I should let them do their own business.

Few seconds after leaving The classroom, Hannah returned and beckoned on me. I got up, and followed them to The rendezvous point, The gatehouse.

I stood aloof as Hannah and Ruth changed clothes.
“ain’t you going with us? ” Ruth asked,
“no, i have plans with Ehis later” i replied
“who is talking about Ehis ? Some of my friends just returned from Malaysia, they are taking us out. we ll just keep them company thats all. ” Hannah cut in , obviously trying to persuade me
I thought about it for a while, it didn’t sound like a bad offer, but i wasn’t very comfortable with it. After the events of the other day, i had decided to be more discrete.

I had a really bad feeling about the whole trip, but i had to give in to Hannah ‘s persuation. She really wanted me to go, and i couldn’t lets her down, not after all She had done for me.

I dashed to the classroom to get my bag, my getaway clothes were in there. I returned almost immediately, holding on to my school bag. Hannah and Ruth were already fully dressed.

I quickly changed into my new attire, it was a pink top with a tight fitting skirt that barely covered my knees. I sat down to allow ruth make me up, while Hannah went outside to recieve a call.

“they are waiting outside please hurry ” hannah announced, as she rushed inside to pick up her purse.

Ruth applied the make up hurriedly, without paying attention to details as she would usually do. We grabbed our hand bags, handed the gate man his usual fees and walked out of the school.
Just outside the school fence, a car parked beside the road. It had no plate number, it was obviously new. I had never see that brand of car before. Who ever owned this must be very rich i said to myself.

Hannah led us towards the parked car. The rear door opened as we approached. A lavishly dressed young man, probably in his mid twenties alighted and held the door open for us.

Hannah galloped towards him and threw herself at him in a hug. He held her closely to himself and kissed her lips. Ruth greeted him, and extended a hand to him. He took ruth’s hand in his and kissed the back of her palm.
I was a little disgusted by the entire public display, i merely greeted him without going close. I opened the front door and took my seat beside the driver.

Ruth and Hannah sat at the back. There were three boys seated inside the car, the driver beside me and two others behind. They all looked over dressed and irresponsibe, while trying to speak in a foreign accent.

Hannah introduced the three boys. There was mesode the driver, Aj the guy Hannah hugged and the rather quiet looking Ramsey seated along side Aj at the back.

As we embarked on our journey i would steal occasional glances at the rear view mirror, to observe what was hapenin behind. Hannah and Aj were kissing lustfully, while ruth was struggling to get Ramsey to keep his hands off her. It seemed she too was uncomfortable with the boys.

Mesode tried to engage me in small talk as he drove along. My short and pointed responses killed almost all his attempts. He would turn side ways from time to time to steal a glance at me, and lick his lips afterwards. I almost felt like a LovePeddler. The LovePeddler scenario did not feel right.

My phone beeped, it was a message from Ehis.
“baby, can i pick you up during break? Want us to hang out with some friends”
I felt a little regret as i read the message over and over again. If i hadn’t listened to Hannah , i would have had alot of time to spend with the man i love, i thought to myself.
