Reaction to the Results

Sandra and Amaka barely passed, but the rest of the girls failed.

Blessing screamed, "Chai! My village people don finally catch me!"

Ebere slumped on the bed. "Wetin be this? Me, fail? This school no dey normal."

Tolu hissed. "How person go read and still fail like this?"

Sandra shrugged. "At least, I pass small."

Amaka sighed. "This result no sweet at all. We gats find another way."

They sat in silence, staring at their phones. The thought of failing a whole semester made them uneasy.

Meeting Gift – A New Friend

While walking back from class the next day, they saw a new girl sitting alone under a tree.

She had a very big chest, even bigger than Ebere’s. Boys were laughing and pointing at her.

Boy 1: "See her breast! Like two big pillows!"

Boy 2: "She fit use am press person die!"

Gift kept her head down, clearly embarrassed.

Ebere walked up to her. "My dear, why you dey sit alone?"

Gift looked up shyly. "Nobody wan near me. Dem say I too big."

Sandra hissed. "Leave those boys. E no concern them how you look."

Blessing smiled. "You be our type. You go follow us."

Gift’s eyes lit up. "Really?"

Tolu: "Yes na. Anybody wey no like you, make dem go hug transformer."

The girls pulled Gift up and took her along with them.

They couldn’t continue with Mass Communication. Their grades were too poor, and they were struggling.

Gift also made a confession.

Gift: "I actually dey do Law, but e too hard for me."

Blessing: "You fit change am, na. No be by force."

Gift: "True talk."

Ebere: "We sef need to change course. This one no be our way."

The girls nodded in agreement.
