On seeing Mikey approaching Lydia, everyone in the class was intrigued to know what was going to happen, the news about Mikey getting rejected and got his ass whoop was all around the school.
Without saying anything and seeing it was the perfect time, Mikey quickly sat at one side of her chair, the moment she was about to say something, a teacher walked into the class, which made her swallow what she was about to say.
"Good afternoon class" said the teacher.
"Afternoon sir" replied the students in the class.
"Mikey, what are you doing here?" asked the teacher the moment he saw Mikey sitting beside Lydia. Her chair was at the front of the class, so he spotted him easily.
The teacher didn't care to hide the shock on his face, the fact that Mikey was now sitting down with Lydia wasn't something he would want, he has knew Lydia for some time now and she wasn't someone who like associating with others and the fact that she was being given special privilege in the school was enough to tell anyone that she isn't to be played. with.
"I'm really sorry for transferring without telling you or consulting anyone of the teachers, I'm currently having some problems with some subjects and I decided to meet Lydia,so she can put me through, as she is clearly the number smartest person in this class" said Mikey.
"You could have met Kiran to put you through, so why me?" asked Lydia.
'Wow, didn't think you would have know my name, as you don't associate with anyone' said Kiran in his mind.
"I'm currently not in good terms with him right now, so I couldn't go to him" said Mikey.
"Is that true Kiran?" asked the teacher.
"With all due respect sir, that's the true" said Kiran with seriousness.
"Lydia are you okay with it" asked the teacher because he could clearly see that she was uncomfortable.
"Please Lydia, you have to help me, I need to get good grades on our upcoming exam so I can tell able to attend a good university without difficulties" pleaded Mikey with his eyes now looking like that of a puppy.
"I'm sorry but I can't help you, find another her person who can, there are a lot of smart people in this school" said Lydia.
"Respect her wish Mikey, go and sit down on that chair over there" pointed the teacher to one of the empty seat at the side.
'Why is she so secretive about everything, at this rate I wouldn't be able to find anything about her" said Mikey to himself.
"Please Lydia, they are not as smart as you" replied Mikey, it was clear that Mikey wasn't someone who feel ashamed about anything.
'I definitely can't take it anymore, it feels like my stomach is about to burst because of this laugh I'm holding in' said Caleb to himself.
"I'm sorry but I can't" was the short reply from Lydia.
"Mikey, find somewhere else to seat" said the teacher, not giving him a chance to plead again.
'Shit, looks like I lost to Caleb again' said Mikey in his mind as he walked to the seat that was giving to him by the teacher.
After the bell rang, signaling the end of school, Mikey walked up to meet Kiran and Caleb who were waiting for him.
"Mikey, how about you pay up your debt right now, I don't really like wasting time when it comes to business" said Caleb as Mikey approach them.
"I will transfer the cash into your account, so just be patient and don't worry about it" said Mikey.
"Well, I will be waiting" replied Caleb.
"Are you guys coming to the Martial art training today?" asked Mikey.
"I forgot to ask, but is it today the reshuffling of position is going to take place?" asked Kiran.
"How can you forget something as important as that, of course it's today, I can't wait to see the disbelief in your faces when I take the first position from your hand" said Mikey.
"Well it's actually isn't that important, it's just a simple competition to reshuffle the best best and see those who have improved" said Kiran.
"Don't dream too much Mikey, you do know that Kiran and I have been exchanging the first and second position for some time now, right?, while you were always in third, definitely sure there won't be any difference this time around" said Caleb.
"I will make you eat your words, how about we bet on it, five hundred thousand bucks, saying I'm going to take the first position this time around" said Mikey.
"You are just increasing your debt, you do know you are holding me some cash already right?, so if you loss, then it would be a million bucks" said Caleb.
"Is it a deal or not?" asked Mikey.
"it's a deal" replied Caleb.
All through the time Mikey and Caleb were exchanging words about their bet, Kiran didn't say any words because he knew this wasn't the first time they were betting on such trivial things and possibly won't be the last.
"You too are clearly still acting like kids, you never do look at things in a different prospective, what are you guys gaining right now from the bet, just feel like squandering your parents money" said Kiran as he shook his head.
"No such thing as we squandering their money, and beside it's from our daily allowance we usually bet from" said Mikey.
"Whatever you say, just make sure it doesn't become an habit of yours later, some companies usually goes bankrupt all because of a simple bet" said Kiran.
"Come on dude, what's with the preaching, it's just a little bet and nothing more, or perhaps are you a saint?" asked Mikey which made him and Caleb burst out in laughter.
"Perfect, I've seen a perfect reasons to kick both of your asses in this competition. for making fun of me, I definitely won't hold back" said Kiran.
"Well, we won't hold back also" said both of them.
