Shackles of despair
CHAPTER FOUR
Simca was happy over the authority, according to her, she was finally feeling the power of authority, she felt like she had been missing out all this while.
When she went back to school she told her friends "So you guys were enjoying this all this while and I was just there, hmm" Simca said while chatting with them during break time.
"You see Simca, I told you to just trust me now you're enjoying, soon all the junior students will have no word to say where you are, oh.. one is coming, maybe to get something, watch and learn Simmy" Jennifer said
Soon a junior student entered the class, "Hey you this boy, remove your shoes, do you even know where you are?" Jenny screamed
The boy quickly removed his shoes and came into the class, greetings everyone.
"Old boy what do you want stop that useless mannerism" A boy named John said to the boy.
"Please I came to get my chair, I left it here during the solemn assembly because a teacher was sitting on it, so it's there at the end of the hall where senior Simca is sitting down" The boy said
The seniors looked at him and one smiled and told him to go and collect the chair.
He walked quickly and went to Simca, "Senior please may I have my chair?" The boy said.
The next thing that followed made the boy wish he never made that statement, it was brutal, Simca rained abuses and asked the boys to beat him, the broke the chairs leg using it to beat him, and sent him back to his class, he was Blessings classmate.
Blessing heard this and resolved in her heart to report all seniors to the school authority if they should provoke her again.
One day Blessing was going to meet a teacher after school hours, Simca saw her and called her "Hey girl take this 30 naira, buy two pens for me and come back with my 100 naira change"
Blessing looked at the money, pen was about 100 naira, she was asked to buy two and still bring change.
In that school that was another tactic a senior played I'm using juniors pocket money, Simca amount wasn't even much, most people charged up to 500 naira change.
So pray no senior should even see you to send you on that kind of an errand.
Blessing laughed and replied " Please I don't have time for this trick, if you don't have money, beg for it, don't use this way to ask for it" Blessing said and wanted to continue going, but Simca gave her a huge lash on her neck, "Is there something wrong with you, has the nuts in your brain loosened, take this thing and do what I asked you to do my friend" Simca shouted.
Blessing said she wouldn't buy it, and wanted to run and deport, but Simca being a huge girl, nicknamed tigress, pulled Blessing to the backyard and started giving her a merciless beating, Blessing screamed and it attracted a teachers attention .
"Who is there?" a teacher asked.
Blessing wanted to talk but simca's strong hands pressed her mouth and nose, she struggled for a while and suddenly stopped, when the teacher didn't hear anymore noise, she left, Simca heaved a sigh of relieve, and suddenly felt that the person she was holding became lighter, she released Blessing and she fell down to the ground...... dead.
Simca had suffocated her to death, Simca was scared and asked her friends what she should do, the advised her not to worry, and then threw her into the Bush at night.
