Chapter Twenty
"Get off me you twit.."
"Stop pulling my hair..."
"I'll stop when you stop.."
Tess pulled at Allie's hair and Allie did too...they rolled and turned and pushed each other... Some kids that stood around, took random pictures that were to be uploaded into the school's blog..but the both of them were to busy to to be concerned at that moment..
"What is going on here.." Mrs. Banks called back order and decency within minutes of her arrival..
"I'm here" Mrs. Banks petite stature made her almost negligible... Most students were taller than her but now she waved her hands and finally got the attention she sought..
"What is wrong with you two?.." She asked approaching..
"She started it!!" Both said pointing at the other..
"Allie.. I'd like to hear your part of the story.....I gave you a strict guideline and you failed... Just a few push ups.."
"She walked out on me...that's disrespectful to my being.."
"So you had to redesign my hair with milkshake?"
Allie shrugged then Mrs. Banks so her chance to speak up..
"Enough of that you two... The both of you, will apologize to each other... The rest of you, get back to work... If this attitude continues again, I'd be forced to report you to the Dean.."
Oh no!! Not the dean
"That's right...the Dean... You heard me."
I rather file myself in to the Principal..

"Dear God gracious Tess what happened? Why are you so soggy and wet..?"
"Allison happened..."
"You mean Allie?.."
"Yes I mean Allie... Can you imagine she called me Theresa? I mean, who does that.."
"Isn't that like your full name?"
"No!! Its Tessa, there is a difference.."
"OK so.. What really happened... You look so torn and wet.."
"I decided to take your advice, and let it all roll of my back..Look where it has landed me.."
"Technically... My advice worked...look milkshake is rolling off your back."
Tess glued a fixative look at Maya that set her off the edge before the latter quickly chipped in..
"Not cool..got it"
"Just when I thought I was gonna have a good day...Ugh! So what about your talk with Abigail... Good news or bad news?" Tess asked cross fingered...
"Bad news... Extremely horrifying news..."
"Oh my...he's dead!!"
"He is not dead.... For now.."
"He dislocated another part of his body.."
"Neither"
"He lost his pet or grandma.."
"Stop guessing ...your guess is ridiculous.."
"What could be worse?"
"He has moved to Texas...the annual football training... In the football academy.."
"The one he ditched?"
"The same one.."
"That's ridiculous... Why the sudden change of mind.."
"Have no idea..either ways, I'm done with that guy... For reals this time.. All this while, I thought he was real and genuine... Making promises he couldn't keep... Guess good guys aren't a thing anymore.... I'm moving on."
"By moving on hope you don't in any way imply Scott."
"Well..."
"Hello ladies.."
What's that proverb...talk about the devil, something something relative...well you guess who showed up..
"Hi Scott"
"Maya... Care for some lime water?"
"Now you say it... I'm suddenly in the mood for lime water... This all of a sudden feeling of wanting to get deacidified... If that's a thing.."
"I just wanted to make sure you are OK"
"See he's the good guy.. " Maya said mumbling to Tess as she slightly brushed her shoulder...
"Tess... "
"Don't Tess me... Stop acting all nice and sweet because we know you actually aren't"
"It's just a harmless bottle of lime water Tess stop getting unnecessarily worked up.. " Maya said sounding a bit defensive.
"You know what annoys me most, at the end of the day, when your heart is broken... Again... I'm the one to pick up the bits and pieces of you, and place you back in track.. Do me a favour, and don't get your heart broken... Most especially not from him... And you... Scott I've been working hard on my Judo.. I now break limbs.."
Typical Tess
"I'm going for a cloth change... Feel so sticky.. It's going to take almost month and half, to get all this milkshake out of my hair... It's harder when you keep coils.. " Tess said and left..
Maya laughed, and Scott did too.. There was this one thing about Tess that Maya admired so much.. She cared so much for her friends how so lucky Maya felt to be a part of the train..
"So.. How has your studies been, you know the exams would begin soon and I wanted to be sure, you are actually doing great.. " Scott said pulling Maya back to reality, as the rear image of Tess exiting their midst faded..
"Great.. I have been good."
Was all Maya said.

🎶 "The mitochondrion is the cells powerhouse.
It helps a cat run when it's chasing a mouse.
From oxygen and food, it makes energy.
It takes air and a burger to create ATP.
This is a process called aerobic respiration.
It's why we always need to breathe at work or on vacation..
The doorway to the cell is the cell membrane.
A flexible outer shell it's job is to contain.
All of the organelles it makes me want to shout!!
"..relax!! You don't need to really shout... You are not Singing a love song by the way and besides, don't just sing, actually keep each words stuck in your brain because you are apparently studying.. "
"Cant help it... This whole thing is amazing." Maya said dropping her head phone..
"You have to take my tutorials a little seriously if you want to graduate with a good grade."
Since when did you become so serious.
"I'm serious.. " Mr. Drey said as though he replied to her question.
"Well.. I love it... Mr. Drey, I have a question to ask."
He let out a sigh, before he continued..
"Do you need money?"
"No, it's not that.. "
"A relationship advice?"
Not another episode of Monique, Pickles and Freckles.. No..
"Neither.. "
"Oh, then it must be..
Well you know."
"What?"
He motioned a display which Maya understood immediately..
"No... Eww... No way... How can you even think about something like that.. That's so far from it..."
"Listen, I'm like the father you never had... This topics shouldn't be embarrassing."
"My father still breathes air, thank you so much..."
"Just kidding... I hate those topics too.. All the adolescent issues... "
"Stop."
"OK OK... I'm done... So what's it?"
"When will you tell the class that you are Drey not Andrew Johnson.. "
"Maya.. "
"Look.. I know it's hard but I've seen them sing... They love the whole idea but Principal Rowlings.. "
"Exactly.. Principal Rowlings... If he figured out, I'm done for.. I just have few more weeks, till my time as a substitute elapses and you just want me to blow it up.. "
"You are the one with the sole responsibility of nurturing back music into our lives.. Don't mess with that."
"Maya you are asking for a lot."
"Trust me on this one.."
