Living Life as a Freshman (Vol.3)

RECAP -- After the new house excitement and all those.. my sadness kicked in. I was just admitted into this new school with gigantic structures looking very nice and all.. what was my expectations... We'll find out ---

It was my first day in school, you know normally you get excited and stuffs because you're about to meet everyone for the first time, good or bad it was all gonna be an experience for you and all. But, I for one wasn't really bothered about all that, I wasn't really the type that went to different schools 🏫 and all. I always had this confidence everything about me is just once. So after the meeting with the principal and all that, next up.. I was to be escorted to my class and an introduction was necessary too. As the new guy then I didn't think about anything other than just being very quiet and calm as I've always been.. although I was a bully in my primary 4 & 5 but I was still a smart kid atleast if nothing else proves that to you, I was made the senior prefect in my primary 4 ahead of my seniors in primary 5, so you see.. my name is clever.

I came in.. the normals happened, I sat with a guy at the front desk.. then all of a sudden someone came in and told me that was his seat, I didn't like fighting growing up as a kid.. I had anger issues and that has been my backbone in times of fight... I always came out victorious no matter the person due to my anger rate. Well I blamed it on my mum for carrying me for 10 months because all my brothers had this same anger issues and we all stayed in there for 10months. Anyways... I wasn't gonna fight this guy, it was my first day so I didn't say nothing, I simply just moved to the back .. there was this bad sit so I sat there.
‎. Good encouraging mates took me to they own seats and I joined them. Now the guys life was about to start. We started talking.. this guy's name was Avie-vie. He was from the same place I was ..(tribe). He was gonna be my best friend. I met some other guys too.. this was the clique I didn't know then. I was welcomed in very well without any requirements.
‎Moving on.. it was break time... my plan was not to go anywhere but I guess these guys had a different plan for me.. they was like .. '' c'mon... U play football right? '' I said '' yes ''.. & they was like '' c'mon to the pitch''. Okayyyy....now hold on. I've always seen the pitch but didn't know how to arrive there so I had to quickly follow them or else I'll be lost.. I hurriedly joined in .. we walked through a tiny space that felt as though the giant Walls from both sides was gonna fall and kill us all.. I was a bit shaken but didn't show it since they was so confident moving down to the other side of the space. Lo and behold I saw the pitch .. very big.. with well constructed standard posts on both ends of the pitch.. it was a soccer field. I was about to have the best time of my life without me knowing it.
I played very well, crowned it all with a goal and that was the highlight of the day. They was happy I could play the no.9 position well because it seems they lacked that edge. So we have a striker now.. they gave me the briefings of the school competitions that normally happens every term.. with these jss3 guys always coming out top and we was the guys that was gonna stop them. Some of my peers been admitted since they primary level till secondary so they know some of the stories happening.

Everything went well.. went back home same old hell.. you'll receive insults and beatings for every little thing you did no matter how small. You just can't get away for not doing something right and even when you do get it right something else is by the corner waiting to go wrong. No one else did these things as I was the only guy around for these petty works. I went back to school day 2past.. it was amazing.. day 3 4 5 ... Till I was now really comfortable with everybody. School was now my best place to be. After school everyday we all will chill outside the gate by the roadside and gist.. the ones talking to their girlfriends will talk and delay till for about 1hour extra before we'll all dispatch and go to our various homes. Home for me was always not good, and especially when you go back and meet my aunt in her angry state, you're so dead because she'll carry it out on you. So I always wanted to be the last person going home.
It was a brand new Friday morning... It was gonna be the best day of my life why? Because it was the first day of the competitions (soccer). I knew I was gonna have fun again because football to me then was my life! Like if you ain't talking football then you ain't a man yet. It was very beautiful, The scene, the attention... The crowd because unlike the other times... The whole secondary section was chased out of they classrooms to come and cheer up they teams.. so the stand was full.. the crowd was strong. I started on pitch and it was the best moment of my life as I scored a goal and you can imagine the excitement of the crowd.. everyone watching you do that.. I ran to go celebrate and everyone chasing you to join in for the celebration.. basically this is still almost the best feeling in the world truth be told.. the kind of happiness you feel, it's unfathomable. After that day I became popular in school. Everyone knew me now... Then coupled with my clique of friends.. we was the best in school then.. but there was a lil problem.. the seniors in the Ss1-3 especially the guys from the SS 3 were cult guys.. it was time for the horror of my life..
‎i thought house was the only hell I'd face in my life, little did I know I was in for a time of my life atleast... For the next two terms... They would come to class and purnish us for no reason. The first day was strange to me.. I just immediately saw my guys running in and saying '' senior dey come '' repeatedly and immediately everyone ran back to they desk and arranged themselves..
‎then these guys came in without asking a question.. the only thing they said was '' everybody head on your desk'' .. I didn't know what that meant so i looked at everyone and they all rested they heads on the desk so I simply followed and did the same.. everywhere was very quiet now... The next thing I heard... To my amazement was a deep hard sound...
‎i was shaking...............................................
