"OMG! how can people talk nonsense about baby Gloria"girls asked Angella the news anchor in their class. They waited eagerly but met disappointment. The girls shifted their gaze towards Annabelle and priccy who were seated at the extreme end of the class.
Angella decided to say hello and maybe train some new trending dance moves with them. Having approached them, Annabelle and priccy posed on what they were doing to concentrate on Angella's arrival. " hello,by the way Annabelle and priccy why don't we practice some dance moves on the trending songs cause after our UNEB,we are gonna compete in a stiff competition.
" Yeah,it won't do any harm if we have fun while practicing". Annabelle said standing up from her seat. The other girls brought their make up kits and started doing magic to whoever wanted to dance.They even brought some costumes to change from their uniforms as long as they don't cause disturbance to others in lessons.
After two full hours,they kicked off with their moves . Angella and other girls first did their part leaving the guys speechless. It was now the turn of Annabelle and priccy, with their appearance in sexy tight jean shorts with tank tops fitting perfectly their mid sized breasts. Annabelle's big bums and tiny waist almost drove the guys crazy with her nude red lipstick. When they started whining their waists like snakes and shaking their bums like a Jamaican lady, even the once calm Amir couldn't take it . This was like the art of a seductress provoking the innocent ones. " why did these two girls always hide their perfect figures in loose uniforms yet other girls in senior six dressed in tight uniforms?"
This left most students in the optional room with shock due to the sudden revelation especially Annabelle who everyone thought was just a so so girl. After the battle was over, Annabelle and priccy left to change into their uniforms with a smiley face as if provoking those who once said " hahaha those two girls can't compare to us in terms of figure" but the sudden truth made them to almost eat their words.
Having come back, everyone looked at them in different light thus the saying " never judge a book by its cover " this saying was the best to describe these girls. Amir went towards the male bathrooms with beads of sweat on his forehead not knowing what was wrong with his own body. Since it was almost time to go home,he just went back to the dormitory and took a bath hoping to be fine afterwards.
Holding his towel and bucket,he was surprised to find Joshua in the dormitory since this wasn't his hobby to come to the dormitory right away after completing a paper. " Dude what happened to your face? " Joshua questioned Amir. " What's wrong with it?" Amir asked with a question. " It has the kind of shade which usually appears to those who have fallen in love, in simple terms you're blushing". Joshua dropped the bomb to Amir who looked surprised. " So which girl has finally made your heart pump wildly hmm?" Amir just went to his decker not caring about Joshua.
Inside the staffroom.
Several teachers sat on their desks marking the exams while others arranged the discussion groups of students during their last days in high school. "The finals this year might be very difficult compared to other years. If the students aren't careful,they might misunderstand the questions but always a brilliant student will still see through the tricks". Madam Rene the European history teacher shared her point of view. The other teachers also agreed with her .
Students at the main campus started going home leaving the boarders to prepare for the night preps.
Annabelle arrived home after accompanying priccy but was shocked by what she saw when the landlord stood Infront of their house with guards throwing their things.
" Sabrina,I have been very lenient with you for the last two months,but now just pack your things and go somewhere else with those little bastards". The landlord yelled loudly making other neighbors to see to crowd and see what's going on. Tears of agony streamed Sabrina silently because she couldn't refute the landlord's words. She had requested for a loan from a sacco hoping to pay house rent on time,but she was rejected merciless because she couldn't not guarantee security. She spent the whole week on toes with the hope of getting money but she couldn't.
" please landlord at least could you give us a week so that we can arrange somewhere to go" Annabelle kneeled Infront of the landlord with tears streaming her beautiful face. But too bad the landlord was too adamant on chasing them away. Sabrina got hold of herself, gesturing Annabelle and her little daughter,packed their bags and disappeared in the darkness. " Mom where will we lodge especially at this hour when we don't have money" Annabelle asked worriedly.
"It will be okay my dear, although right now we don't have an option,we will spend the night at aunt Rita's place.
Arriving at aunt Rita's place,they were welcomed warmly. " Sabrina,will this mattress be enough for the three of you?" Aunt Rita asked worriedly. " it's okay as long as we get where to sleep, thanks so much. Sabrina appreciated for the help sincerely with tears in the brim of her eyes.
Having said goodbye,Rita left towards her room. " Mom, how can this happen without my knowledge,I could have started looking for a part-time job". Annabelle asked her mom with sorrow in her voice. "It's not your responsibility to take care of the family, I have to suffer the consequences of my actions. If I had listened to my parents advice of not marrying the man I thought would be responsible for the rest of my life but under the disguise of love,he betrayed me for someone who had a better background". Sabrina narrated her sad love. Annabelle felt sorrow and anger towards the so called dad who never even bothered with the responsibility of taking care of them. After a while ,they slept off .
Sabrina's dream.
Seated around a palm tree,a woman in black suddenly appeared where Sabrina was,she gazed at her with sinister eyes and laughed." Though you're the first wife,he abandoned you with those two bastards, hahaha you've been chased out of the house,I want you to know that this is just the beginning but wait until I crush you under my feet". The woman in black said and disappeared with the unknown man. Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead with her heart beating wildly like drums. She woke up wiping the sweat on her forehead .
Ever since she attended to aweird customer at Nakasero market, she has been having terrifying nightmares every day. Having lost the mood to sleep again,she decided to read the Bible since the creator can never abandon you in any kind of situation. It wasn't until dawn that Annabelle and her sister woke up. After freshening up, Aunt Rita prepared breakfast, greeting each other warmly,they ate with various thoughts in their minds especially Annabelle who was preparing to ask for leave from school to start looking for part-time jobs. Several days passed without Annabelle attending any single lesson which worried Priccy who decided to visit her place after classes.
But upon reaching there, the new neighbor told her that they shifted to a new place. She rummaged her small bag and got a phone. Dialling Annabelle's number,but it was only the service provider who answered " the number you're trying to call is currently switched off, please try again later". She felt frustrated and worried towards her friend's disappearance. She decided to go back home and try again looking for her friend since tomorrow would be a weekend.
At the salon.
Annabelle was seated on a stool helping the customer who wanted to wash her hair and do hair combing. Completing the task at hand she finished and her gaze shifted to her phone that was switched off ever since they left the old place.
Priccy took large strides because a certain scrap kid had found where Annabelle worked. Priccy shouted Annabelle's name from a distance attracting attention towards Annabelle. Priccy greeted the owner of the salon before requesting for permission to talk to Annabelle. Annabelle have her friend a bear hug cause she really wanted someone to talk to. Priccy looked at her friend who had lost weight. Annabelle narrated her situation to priccy without hiding anything because she truly trusted her. " The teachers organized revision groups because the Uganda National Examination Board released the timetable". Priccy explained to Annabelle whose eyes were dull and listless. Priccy tapped on her friend worriedly. " Maybe I should talk to my mom so that you get money and at least rent a room where to lodge with your mom and sister". But Annabelle refused her help saying " that's your mother's money and she toils to get that money, moreover I can't take advantage of our relationship to extort money from you,but just help me to record the notes".
