We brainstormed ideas for the duration of the period until it was time for lunch.
"Let's keep in contact, Adessa" Tendai said. We need to continue brainstorming even after class. When you think about something you can call me and vice versa. I gave him my phone number.
"Tell me Addie, did he abuse you again?" Jensen asked me after class. Because I will show him!
No, he didn't do anything. He was actually okay, we exchanged contacts so that we can continue brainstorming later on. How about you, how did it go with King?
"King is a cool guy, he told me that we shall use his followers to help us do the work," he said. You know he has a TikTok channel that has many followers.
Are you okay with this? It means you won't learn anything because his followers will do the work for you.
"I don't mind, it will give me time to focus on doing what I love most, which is to make you love me," he said.
Jensen made me smile. I liked how he tried so hard for me. We found the cafeteria packed with students as usual. I was so hungry, I hadn't had breakfast earlier on. We found Mae and Andrew waiting on the side. Kemi and her friends were seated on a table talking. Tendai had joined them. When Kemi looked at us she smiled. Her smile made me scared.
"They've told us to wait for everyone else to get food," Andrew said.
Who said that?
Andrew pointed at a prefect who was supervising the cooks.
Why?
"No particular reason.," Mae said.
When it was finally our turn we lined up. The perfect told the cook to serve us from a particular saucepan. I knew this prefect well, she was Cassie Graves. She was in a class below us.
"Hi Cassie," I said.
She said Hi but didn't look into our faces. The cooks served us our food and we went and sat down. Mae, Andrew and Jensen began eating immediately. Something about what had just happened felt strange. I was hungry but didn't eat the food. I turned around to see Kemi, Liz and Raven looking at us smiling.
"Stop eating!" I yelled.
At that moment, Andrew found a rat tail in his soup. Everyone dropped their forks and knives. It hit all of us at that moment about what had just happened. Kemi and her friends had put a rat in our food which is why they had made us get food last. This was such a low thing for them to do. Their table burst into laughter when they realized that we had noticed what they had done. I noticed Tendai wasn't laughing with them. Jensen picked up the plate of food that had the rat tail, got up from the table and walked up to them. We all followed him.
"Kemi, you have crossed the line this time and you know it," he said.
