Re: Single Lady by Rubyspice: 7:59am On Nov 19, 2013
It was getting dark and Caroline soon left for home. I had just gotten back to my room after seeing her off, the room seemed empty and quiet once again. I walked to the reading table, I knew I had to read for my tomorrow's paper. I sat down for a while looking through my notes but my mind kept drifting back to what Caroline had told me.

"was she doing the right thing?

"obviously not"

"but what if she gets caught?"

"what if she doesn't, what if she gets admission and leaves me behind like the rest have been doing."

"but I've read and I guess I'm prepared."

I kept on thinking about the situation while having an intense conversation with my subconscious.

I could hear faintly the lyrics from one of Lionel Richie's all time classics. The song sounded so familiar, soon I was humming away as I drifted back to consciousness. I open my eyes and found out I had slept off at the reading table and the song was my phone that had been ringing.

"oh no!" I screamed

"no no no no"

I quickly got up and picked up my phone.

"Ten missed calls from Emeka and Caroline."

It was 8:30am and the exam starts by 9:00am and I was just waking up. My eyes could have popped out of its sockets at that instant as I stared at the wall clock. Deedee's value skyrocketed at this point in my heart because she definetly would have woken me up but she didn't sleep in the room that night.

"how did this happen?"

"how could I have slept for so long."

I sprinted towards different directions almost at the same time, having so much to do at a short period of time. I was confused and body felt slightly stiff having slept on a plastic chair and table through the night. I knew the rest had to wait as I rushed through the basic routine and was ready by 8:45am.


I rushed out of the house to get a bike going inside the school premises. I stood infront of the lodge (glo) knowing fully well that if I tried to walk to the exam hall which was called "750 cap" , I would be late for my paper. I stood there impatiently looking at my watch at every two second interval, plus my phone kept on ringing. I had picked up phone once to tell Emeka I was on my way but he seemed hell bent on giving me a heart attack. It was just morning but I felt exhausted with worry.


I soon saw a bike coming towards me, it already had one passenger on it. I had to be on that bike even if the bike wasn't carrying humans. I flagged down the bike with my hand and he stopped in front of me.

"inside school, hall of mercy."

"ok, enter."

By this time the first passenger had alighted so I could sit in between.I looked at his face properly for the first time, it was Andrew. The time was 8:55am and I was now on my way for the exam. Andrew seemed elated to see me and he kept on giving explanations on why he hadn't called. All my thoughts were in that exam hall, I couldnt afford to miss that exam. The admission into school, or the shameful return back to lagos to continue writing J.a.m.b year after year. I felt horrible and looked worse, my worries weighed a ton and for some reason the guy at my back couldn't take a hint and shut the fu*ck up. I could care less why he had didn't called until now. He kept at it explaining and yapping away while I gave default nods where appropriate. I got to my venue by 9:04am and the students in the halls around were already inside and sitted. I hurriedly searched for my purse to pay for my fare but Andrew insisted on paying for me. He asked for my phone number again promising to try not to loose it like the previous incident but I had run out off time. As I hurriedly walked away from the bike, I screamed "glo room 5". I couldn't stop to see if he understood what I meant as I ran down the erosion washed roads. I was soon at the hall and thank goodness they were just arranging the students in the hall.The hall was built like a theater or a staduim, steps with seats attached to it and tables infront in descending order. The seats at d back were high because it was the top of the stairs then as you walked down the seats were placed on each stair in a descending order. It had a podium or a stage depending on was the hall was being used for.

"where have you been? What happened to you? Why are you this late?" Emeka asked impatiently
I was sweating profusely after that little exercise in the morning sun, I needed to catch my breath. I stood there breathing heavily as Emeka continued his questioning/investigation. I looked up at him in disgust and realised he would make a good police officer, infact the uniform would look superb on him.

"next! " Dr Amadi said

"no no no no no" I whispered

I looked at Emeka with a more serious facial expression and he nodded in affirmation. Dr Amadi was going to be our invigilator.
