Chapter 5 (The slap)

Caleb pov 

 I ran out of luck and bumped into someone. And a dirty slap landed on my face turning me around. I tried looking at the person that gave me the death sentence slap but my vision was so blur, that I could see only a figure.

 "Never in your life bump into me again" she said in a commanding tone as my sight cleared and I saw that it was the lady that I had been admiring since morning. I just smile as tears threaten to fall off my eyes, am I not going crazy, this is not me, the real Caleb will have changed into an angry mode and scold her. And if she tries to fight me I will fight back.

"sorry for bumping into you" what did I just say, I am already in love with a cold blooded lady, see how I had been disgraced in front of many students. anyway let any other student try me. She just left without saying anything else.

I kept on walking until I saw three huge guys blocking the road.

I tried making my way pass them but they blocked and pushed me away, while I just staggered back. I checked my back and I saw the cold blooded lady is coming back, going to God knows where.

Let me teach this bullies a lesson that will give her and the people watching a glimpse of what I am made of 

I charged toward them, knocking down two of them at once. I did a back kick hitting the third guy that tried punching me. I used the last bully to do punching bag training, sending him short rhyming blows as I filled him to the brim with short blows and sent him to the floor with an upper cut blow. I heard people saying:

"Omg, he can fight" a student said

"He beat one of the four strongest bullies in five minute" another student said.

"Is he a trained fighter?" Another student asked.

"I don't know but he looked like one" A student replied.

"Why did he not teach that Crystal that slap him lesson" another student asked.

"Maybe he didn't beat the ladies" another student replied.

"Maybe he loved her" another student said

"Ah don't say that if she hears that, that's another problem" A student warned.

I got to my hostel feeling like a young hero. 

I got home prepared rice and stew with boiled eggs and ate. I can't even avoid buying food outside because their food is expensive. I need to look for a job here in order to survive. All the money I had saved had already finished during my admission process.

    Crystal pov

After watching the show of the scholarship boy that I slapped earlier, I went home with my bodyguard.I won't lie, he is a great fighter but he dare not joke or play with me or else I will lock him up in barrack for a good seven days or more. 

My car drove into my compound. That is when I saw my two friends waiting for me at the mining bar. I really need another cook because my personal maid is traveling to her hometown, and I don't think she is returning back. "Hi friends" I said, coming down from my latest G-wagon handing my bag to my female bodyguard to take in.

"Hi" Juliet and Esther said together, "so how is your first day at school?" juliet said

"It was stressful" I said.

"not after giving the hottest and strongest dude a brain formatting slap" Esther said.

"Did you know what he did, he bumped into me" I said defending myself.

"And you giving him a slap is the next thing" Juliet said. 

"Let's forget about this guy's talk" I said, sounding pissed off. 

"Crystal All boys are not the same, anyway forget it...let's talk about another thing" Esther said.

"Crystal, are you attending Senator Thomas's son's birthday on Friday ?" Juliet asked

"No am not going "

"Pls now"

"Am not going"

"Pls now" Esther and Juliet said with a baby tone twisting their face like a suckling who has not been giving breast to feed on for a month.

"Yes, I pray those trashy boy don't mingle with me or else I will scatter that party" I said 

"Ok" they said at once

"There is this latest trending dress I want all of us to try out, it is a round neck gown. It is designed with pure diamonds and it is a perfect gown that brings out all our shapes clinging to our body, anyone that sees us in the party will drool at the sight of us" Esther said as she smiled.

"How much is the gown sold for?" Juliet asked.

"It is sold for ten millionaire" Esther said, bringing out her phone and showing it to us. "Wow!" Juliet said and I will admit, the dress was worth it money. "Order for three now, I will transfer my money into your account" Juliet said. 

"count me out" I said muttering while they gave me a bad look.

"why and which cloth will u wear?" Esther asked. 

"I am putting on a black shirt, black trouser, black snicker and a black face cap to match" I said, meaning every word.

"What!" Juliet and Esther said at once as they looked at me in awe. 

"Are we going for a burial ceremony or what?" Juliet asked while Esther nodded in agreement. 

"That is what I want to wear and that is final" I said and busted out laughing at the scary way Juliet and Esther are looking at me.

"Don't tell me you are afraid" I said 

"Hell yes, u hate going to party and the first one we pleaded you in going, you want to put on blacks, I fear you o" Juliet said 

"Whatever" I replied.

 We finished our discussion as I went inside and they headed to their house.

      Caleb pov 

 After finishing eating, John entered the house and served himself the food I already prepared and ate till he was full.

"Caleb, I heard that you beat four bullies in five minute" He said

"Yes" I replied.

"That's an amazing skill. I will start looking for trouble and run to you to help me fight them" He said.

"God will help you. One day that I will not be around and you will look for trouble and when u get to where you are supposed to find me. You will not meet me there and they will beat you blue and black, to the extent that when I come back, I will use wheel biro to push you home" I said laughing.

"Ahhh.. Don't mimic me o, did u think I can not fight, I am the best fighter in the whole of Nigeria '' He boasted.

"Best fighter indeed... Stay there and be speaking gibberish" I said and laughed out loud.

"There is this senator's son Edward By name, he is having his birthday party and I am lucky to get two tickets from my rich coursemate. Are you going?" He asked

"Yes. I heard that they will be employing servers, you can check your phone in the school Facebook group. So I am going there to work as a waiter and the pay is cool" I said.

"Ok but I am going there to enjoy my life" He said.

"Did you think I am a fool? I will keep as much food and drink as possible. my own enjoyment starts after the birthday" I said while he busted out laughing.

"Don't think I don't know about the fact that Crystal slapped you... It is all over the social media" He said laughing at me as he ran away from my bed, when he saw that I wanted to smack him.

 After our discussion I threw myself on my bed, took my books from my backpack and read through all the lessons we did today for two hour and slept.
