"Don't push me"
"Leave me alone"
"Stop dragging my desk"
Oh! "My tooth just fell"
Outcry.....
"You see what you've caused"
Little Enobong cried out when she couldn't bear it any longer.
One Monday morning, Victor and Enobong arrived school. They were very close friends and class mate. Devotion was conducted as usual by the teacher on duty.
The headmaster stepped in and advised the children to take their studies serious.
And make sure they avoid playing rough.
After that, the pupils went to their various classes.
Victor, have you done your mathematics assignment? Enobong asked. Yes, I have. Victor responded. can you please help me with it, my parents were so tired yesterday when they returned from work; so they couldn't help out.
Don't worry Enobong, you can have mine.
Victor said.
Everything went so well that morning, untill Akpan arrived. He was a perpetual late comer who was not serious with his studies.
Aside going to school late, he was known for his troublesome nature and shedding crocodile tears when punished so as to gain pity from everyone.
Akpan greeted, good morning ma, the teacher responded angrily. Akpan have I not warned you to stop coming to school late?
Go right there and kneel down.
Submit your assignment, the teacher said. All the pupils submitted their assignment except Akpan, who was always busy playing football once he returned home.
Akpan, "get up and go to your seat". Said the teacher. He was relieved of his punishment inorder to submit his assignment. Yet he refused since he didn't even do it.
After checking the assignment, the teacher called Akpan to bring his book. At first he felt so reluctant to do so, until the teacher shouted at the top of her voice.
So when the teacher discovered that he didn't do his assignment; he flogged him and sent him back to his seat.
When he got to his seat,
inorder to transfer his aggression to another person; he pushed Enobong off her desk and dragged her desk away. At this point, Enobong loss a tooth and blood was already gushing out of her mouth.
The teacher was totally confused. And immediately reported the case to the headmaster and the boy got expelled.
Akpan later regretted his actions. But it was too late.
