*****************************

I used to love going to school. Education has always been an important part of me ever since I was a little girl. In class I was always the first one to raise my hand when the lecturers would ask questions. As always, I would get the question right and not only that,I also had
ace in all of my exams.

I was known around campus for being the "smart chick." Not only was I a "brainiac",but I was also considered a beauty. I was not the kind of girl who dressed "over the top" with fashion but I preferred simple styles. I didn't wear make up, I just wore my hair in braids. I never wore skirts, dresses, or any tops that showed my cleavage on campus; just cute shirts, trousers, and sneakers.

I was really enjoying life as a student until we got a new lecturer;
his name is Mr. Chukwudi. He isn't old and faded out like the rest of
our lecturers here. He is handsome, tall, muscular and chocolate in
complexion. Guessing his age, I would say that he is about 38 years
old. Though he is younger than the rest, he is more strict. He even
started a point deduction chart; If you missed any of his classes
without an excuse, that was an automatic 2 points off from the exam (that he would later give). No one dared missing anymore lectures from that class.

During the exam period, I studied day and night. I barely even ate;
after reviewing each material with my classmates, I was sure that I
would ace the exams yet again.

Two weeks later,after we have gotten our test scores back, I received the biggest shock of my life. I failed Mr. Chukwudi's exam with "flying colors". All of a sudden, the classroom was becoming very hot. I couldn't breathe; I started sweating profusely.

 "Nwakaego! Nwakaego! Nwakaego!" My best friend Onyeka was sitting
beside me trying to get my attention.

"Yes" I answered. She looked at me with deep concern in her eyes
"You're sweating like a pig and I have been calling you, are you okay?" I didn't even answer her, I just looked back down at my exam. "What! How can?" As I looked up she was hovering over my shoulder reading my exam paper.

"Onyeka wetin na?" I screeched.
"It's a lie,"Onyeka gasped.
"Chineke me ooo! Tufiakwa!" I wish a hole would appear so I can jump in it.
"But Nwakaego, you've studied from dusk til dawn for these exams; what
happened?"
"Nne, I don't know oo," I said to her.
"Baby girl you need to check with Mr. Chukwudi about this, maybe he
made a mistake."

I shrugged my shoulders and agreed. After class, I waited until the last student was out of the room before I would talk to Mr. Chukwudi.

"Good evening sir," I greeted as I stood in front of his desk.
He looked up at me and replied,"Yes good evening Miss... "Miss Nwakaego Chibueze," I told him.
"I know who you are," he said, licking his lips.
I started feeling very uncomfortable. "Ummm sir, I want to talk to you about my exam
"Oh yes," he interrupted. "You did an outstanding job." I raised my
eye brows and asked, "So why did I fail?"
"Because you have something
I want," he smiled.
"And what is that?" I asked.
"Sit down," he demanded.
"Sir, I really have to go." I said

He gave me a sharp look then repeated
"Sit down!"
I quickly grabbed a chair and sat down. He walked over behind me and kissed my neck,
"I have powerful connections sweetie, I can guarantee you a job before you even graduate, just become my mistress" he said. I quickly got up from the chair.

"Sorry Mr. Chukwudi but I cannot do that."
"Well," he said, going back to his desk. "Then continue to fail this
course and you know without this course, you will not graduate."

"He said that?" Onyeka asked, outraged. I was feeling Onyeka in on what went down between Mr. Chukwudi and I.
"Yes he did," I told her, before swallowing the akpu drenched in egusi soup.
"You have to report him nne, we are almost done with school and you
cannot stay another year!"
After swallowing the akpu, I replied, "Yes I know. Tomorrow morning, I
will report him to the Head of the school" I said.

The next day I was feeling pretty confident. I reassured myself that
everything would be fine after I report Mr.Chukwudi to the Head of
the school and that everything would stop before it gets any worse.

As I was on my way to the Head of the school's office, Mr Chukwudi was in there! He was laughing and having a good time with the Head. My heart sank. It looks like they knew each other very well.

As I was turning around to leave I heard a male voice calling my name,"Nwakaego! Nwakaego!"
As I turned around to see who's calling me, my spirit rose a little.
It was my crush, Joshua Okonkwo. He is one of the most popular guys in my school. Everyone on campus likes him and wants to be friends with him because he is very well connected. His father is a business tycoon and an aspirant for the governorship in the state. Joshua is also very cute; he's fair in complexion and has a smile that would make the sun look as if it's not shining. Even before I knew that he came from a big family, I had a crush on him because he is just so nice.

"Hey Joshua wetin dey happen."
"I dey kampe," he replied. I smiled and hugged him.
"Girl you know I'm throwing a party this Saturday and I was wondering
if you would come to this one?"

As he asked me,he rolled his eyes. "Josh, is something in your eye," I joked.
"No," he said.
"Then why are you rolling them," I giggled.
"Because girl, you never come out to party with me."
I sighed, "Josh, you know that's not my scene."
"See that's why I like you girl, you're different," he confessed.

He smiled at me and rubbed the small of my chin. I almost fainted.
"It's my birthday this weekend, girl this weekend will be crazy!"
I rolled my eyes. "Happy birthday in advance."

"Did she just call me baby," Joshua joked. "Thou art holy Nwakaego...
"Hey Josh, I never claimed holy ooo" I cut in.
"I know Ego, just joking."
"Ego, that lecturer has been watching us for sometime."

As I turned to see who Josh was talking about, I stopped grinning. Of
course it was Mr. Chukwudi.  "Josh, I have to go now." I scurried off
before Josh could question me.
