    Everyone were stunned to see Amanda pretending to be the winner when she didn’t even compete.

    “I can’t believe that you are such a crazy and heartless fellow in my country, for that you are barned from competing in any competition in the state and that’s my final decision. And for melody you are the best of all and I recommend you for your good work keep it up and let the light keep glowing” he said and climbed down after saying what was in his mind.

    Melody was later restored to her place as the winner of the competition as her house returned to normal and Amanda couldn’t believe it. But to think of it there was no particular reason about her hatred for melody, she didn’t even understand whether she’s being controlled in the Marine kingdom or what.

    The jubilation was so much in the air as Melody’s name went viral and across both in TV and radio. She was being carried high up as everyone celebrates her victory especially those who knew her story and her background. Henry couldn’t hold how happy he was for melody as he stood watching how she smiled and laughing as the students were over joyous. Gladys too couldn’t hold her happiness even Desmond who was now Melody’s partner.

    Amanda left the place unnoticed as she covered her self with a hood and head back to their house. Mrs Armstrong was in the house relaxing as she heard distant chanting and voices celebrating someone she didn’t know but hearing the name of her daughter melody being called gave her assurance that all is well as she leaped outside to see a large number of students from golden gates school not minding the hot sun and the distance celebrating melodys victory.

    Though Henry defended her but she loosed interest in him but Henry had no option than to let her rest first before explaining everything to her.
    It was really a great day for melody as she delivered the news of her studying overseas to her parent who knelt down thanking God for answering the prayers concerning Melody’s victory. Melody’s picture was now posted everywhere as the best student for the years, both in social media and in the streets while they were encouraging students to study hard as her.

    Many bill boards were set in the street with Melody’s picture on it as the best student of the year in secondary school, everywhere she goes she feel like a queen seeing her picture everywhere as if she’s a model.

    It was on a Saturday evening when she was busy making fire so as to cook, she was squatting when she feels someone behind her. She was frightened as she jerked up looking back to see the handsome Henry standing with his hands in his pocket looking neat with a pair of 👖 Jean trouser and a white canvas on his feet. Melody turned away instantly not be carried as she walked passed him but Henry drew her backward.

    It was really hard for her to see Henry that time as she flap down his hands backing him after so much pleading from Henry to hear him out first which she reluctantly did without looking at him.

    “Melody I know how hurt you are right now because of how I treated you the past few weeks but trust me I did just for you and you alone ” Henry pleaded.

    “Liar! You betray my love and trust for you Henry. I love and trusted you Henry but you didn’t noticed it only to dump me and go for Amanda ” she said as sad memories came back and fresh tears kept flowing out.

    “I know I should have informed you first but I didn’t want to o do it that way because that was the best choice then. Melody I can’t trade my love for you for anything sake. I love you with the whole of my heart ” he said kneeling down as melody looked away so as not to be affected by his fake tears.

    “Henry I loved you too with the whole of my heart and you were my world and everything to me, but not anymore Henry. I’m sorry Henry it’s over between us” she said trying to control her tears but it finally came as a down pour.

    “No melody, it’s not over yet ” a voice that sounds familiar interrupted her from walking out of Henry. She looked back to see Desmond looking neat walking to where they all stood.

    “Senior Desmond “? She called softly

    “Yes melody, it’s not over between you both. Henry sacrificed his happiness, his time and his love for you just to make sure that you win this competition ” Desmond said with all amount of sincerity.

    “I’m sorry senior Desmond it’s over between us. He didn’t loved me he only tricked me” melody said sniffing.

    “Melody you have to know this that I have been walking with Amanda just to see you both not together, but the day I saw how you felt for each other I decided to let it go. I loved you back then melody but I couldn’t make you mine so I decided to partner with Amanda just to make you mine and Amanda to get Henry to herself but I later discovered the truth and I had to accept it that way that no body can separate your love for each other because I see all seriousness in you both.

    So why are you treating this poor boy this way? I know it hurts but you have to accept life and let go of the past, he did for a reason to see you win the competition melody so think about this ” Desmond said hoping his word have effects on her but she was not ready to accept their apology.

    “I’ve heard you guys, but let me go and think about this “she said

    “No need to think about anything melody, everything is true ” a female voice interrupted her from a distance which she turned and was stunned with who she saw. It was Gladys all the way. What’s the meaning of this or does it mean you all were aware of all this and allow me to cry out my heart out.

    “Gladys! She called as she hug her crying on her shoulders.

    “Melodys it’s okay, everything they both said is true. Henry here loves you with all his might, he was just using Amanda so as to get the truth and the solution to your problem” Gladys said

    “Which solution are you talking about dear? And didn’t tell me that you were part of this plan without letting me know and allow me to suffer emotionally ”

    “Yes dear I was part of it and I was part of the team to see Amanda loose. You see what happened on the first day of the competition made Henry to go far just to see Amanda down and to see your victory. Amanda went ahead just to see your memory loss so that you will fail the competition by going to a native Doctor Who gave her juju to use on you which she successfully did that was why you loose your memory that very day dear. Henry did everything just for you and you alone dear, he’s a good boy” Gladys said and she hug her really tide crying on her shoulder as Henry as Desmond smiled.

    Melody finally walked slowly to Henry looking deep into his eyes, they hug each other. Henry assured her that all is well, he looked at her pink lips and placed a soft kiss on them as she reciprocated. Gladys and Desmond looked at each other and smiled at the two lovers closing their eyes.

    “Please don’t spoil me for my mom I’m a kid ooo “Gladys said and they all laughed.
    Henry and melody reconciled that day as they both went back to their various destination.
    It was really a great day for them both as they kept calling each other again.

    Amanda was not even seen in school again as nobody knew her whereabouts but she was still in existence.

    #1 year later.
    .
    Melody finally wrote her waec and her result was superb, the day finally came for her to move overseas to further her study in higher level.
    It was really heart breaking for her to leave her parents like that behind without anyone to take care of them, she she’d tears and bade them goodbye heading to the airport to move out to Europe. Henry and Gladys wave at her as she move with a car that took her out of side. Henry was already missing her.

    Immediately melodys car came on the highway, two cars were tracking them behind. The speed at which they carried was indescribable as one wondered what’s going and who they are after. Melody too didn’t understand what was happening not until the men overtake them and step down off the car dressed in black attires from head to toe, the door of the passenger car was dragged open as one of them point a gun at melody in the forehead.

    “goodbye miss melody Armstrong, tell Satan I said hello ” he said and pull the trigger sending twin bullets to her forehead as blood rushed out and melody gave up the ghost. Melody died instantly as they all left her body behind without her parent knowing about what just happened.

    Henry got home and relax in his room, just then a knock sounded on the door as he wondered who it was, he walked to the door to open it but was stabbed with a knife on the belly as he fall flat to the ground with blood all over his body. The knife had a letter attached to it with an inscription that says “That’s for betraying me Henry “.
    It was really a sad day as both lovers end up that way without nobody knowing.

    Amanda was seen in the streets in the evening hour with a black hood on her face without anyone knowing its her as she passed with a cigarette in her hands smiling mischievously.

    The news went viral that melody Armstrong is dead.

    #Flashback

    Amanda got to her grandma house without time wastage she dropped down the bag that contain her belongings thus relaxing for the next journey she was about to enjoin. Soon she changed her clothes on the hot sun at the hour of the day heading to the bushy and scanty road that leads to the village shrine, most people who saw her wondered what is her mission there as none knew what she was up to.
    She finally got there and met the chief priests doing incantations and pouring drinks on the ground calling on their God’s to assist him. Amanda sat down on the ground without being told to.

    “What brought you here little girl” the chief priest said after his incantation and Amanda wondered whether she is the one he’s referring to as little girl.

    “Baba, I’m here for a reason ”

    “I knew that already, speak young lady because the gods are listening “he commanded.

    “Baba, there’s a girl that won me in a competition and she will be the one to represent my school in the higher ground so I want her to loose ” she said

    Amanda dipped her hands in her jeans trouser and brought out a bundle of money counted it then placed it before a scary molten figure that looks just like a ghost after which the chief priest gave her three leaves to squeeze it and rub both in her palms.

    “Take this and go home, when it’s time for the competition, rub it and then mention her name three times and she will loose her memory ” the chief priest said and laughed which she collected the thing and left and that’s how she came back and did as she was told.

    #Reality

    People’s eyes popped out of the socket seeing what they didn’t expect to see.

    The entrance was full with securities and arm men who took time to cover the president into the auditorium as everyone stood up singing the national anthem. Sincerely it really surprised everyone present there cause none expected the president of the country in the venue not even the governor. They wondered who might have informed him about the competition but none have a glue about it. The governor stood up bowing to the Supreme power that superceed his own power.

    The house was as silent as a grave yard as the man took his sit waving at each individual with smiles on his lips. Melody couldn’t believe what was happening that the president himself was there to witness her success which is yet to be announced. She was overwhelmed with joy as the competition resumed from where it stopped.
    Already melody had scored a total of 35 points while the person following her is with 32 points as the competition progresses. Henry couldn’t help than to smile because his teacher is about to witness a great victory that will change her story.

    Live cameras were in the hall capturing everything in the house and sending it across to the news on TV, radio, and all sort of communication means. Really it was a great day which none can easily forget, Mr President was pleased with what he saw how the students answered questions brilliantly as if they are in higher institution especially melody who was the best of them.

    It was the last question to bring the competition to an end which was for Miles high school which they failed and melody took that chance and answered the question which everyone applauded her including the governor and the president himself who was also stunned. The judges were now working on how to bring out the final result to determine the winner of the competition. The house couldn’t bear the suspense anymore especially people from golden gates school because they vividly knew that melody will emerge the winner of the competition, it was a great day for both junior and senior students of the school.

    Desmond the senior prefect of golden gates school smiled at melody who return the smile to him. Her eyes met with that of Henry and she averted it instantly while the sad memories came flooding back remembering the hurtful words Henry said to her and how he treated her without caring whether it hurts her or not. The judges finally were done with the answer while they climb the podium to announce it. Just then the president stood up followed by the men who guarded him, he walked to the podium and was welcomed with a clap and shouts from the students.

    “Good afternoon my great people, I’m happy to be amongst you today and I must confess that what I witnessed here is a life history.

    I came uninformed and I guess most of you were shocked seeing me, but I was here to see your governor after being told about this great competition that he is here to witness it so I decided to witness it too myself before going back. So I now stand to announce that whosoever his or her name is being announced on the list as a partaker of this competition will be given five free country of their choice to choose one to further their education there in scholarship and to the winner of this competition.

    Such student will be overseas studying with everything she requires in life being done to and such person will be touring with me to wherever I go and such will be my best student.

    Note whoever his or her name is not here has nothing to do with this and won’t be permitted to be partaker of this and won’t even see such, and for those of you who are also here today I urge you to study hard and one day you will have such a great opportunity as these ones” he said and climbed down as the house was filled with claps and shouts, students who competed their hearts were filled with joy and happiness hearing such great news as they jubilated know even though they have loosed they still have opportunity to study abroad with free things of their choice.

    Amanda heart was hot to the fullest as she hated melody the more that melody will leave the country, Gladys too was filled with joy even Henry who was happy but suddenly look with the feelings that melody will be leaving him behind soon and he will be missing her so badly.

    The house went calm as before as the judge proceeded to announce the results, melodys joy knew no bound as she knows that her dreams has finally come true and she’s about leaving for good. That alone made her smiled.

    “The school that took the last position with the total of 30 points taking the fifth position and represented by Chinedu Obiaku is Success is sure high school ” he said as the young boy stood up waving his hands and the house jubilated. He stepped forward shaking the president and the governor who stood on the stage, he collected his gold medal with an award of 5th position.

    “The fourth position goes to Top high school with the total points of 32 and being represented by Amaka Ebuka ” the young girl stepped forward also shaking hands with the government officials and camera lights were flashing on them simultaneously.

    “The third position goes to Mentor general college with the total points of 45 and being represented by Obiaku Menzzar ” he announced and the young boy also stepped forward doing as others did before collecting his medal.

    “The second position goes to……. ” he paused looking deeply at the script as melody heart began racing so fast without her knowing why it’s so.

    “The second position goes to Miles high school with the total of 52 points and being represented by Chiamaka Chinedu ” the judge announced which she stepped forward and doing as others did.
    Melodys heart was jubilating even people from golden gates school couldn’t hold back their happiness as they knew that they are the people that took the overall winner which is by melody.

    “And the first and overall position goes to Golden Gate high school with the total sum of 60 points who emerged the winner of this year’s top school competition and the winner goes to….. ” the man paused and melody held her chest closing her eyes as she waited for her name to be announced by the judge.

    “And the winner goes to Amanda Patrick ” the hall was so noisy as melody opened her eyes wondering what is happening even the staff from her school didn’t even understand the sudden change. Amanda who was sitting in the crowd stood up and climbed the podium smiling sheepishly, melody stood at where she was as fresh tears drilled out of her eyes. Why is it that her own things always come different??
    Why her? Amanda shake hands with everyone without the governor or president noticing that she was not the one the represented the school.

    Mr Adams was boiling in anger just then reality struck him the he has not changed Amanda’s name in the list after submitting it to the panel telling them that it’s her who will represent the school. Henry was physically angry and Gladys who stoop up instantly walking to the podium without minding the security men. Melody was crying without saying a word or telling them that it’s not her name and that she’s the one to be called up. The chief judge took the microphone again and speak.

    “Your excellency I present to you the competitors who participated in the just concluded competition, here they are and remember it is only those that their name is on the list that represented their school, outside that you are not recognized.

    “No it can’t be !!” Henry’s voice who yell from the back distracted them as everyone attention drifted to him, people wondered where he got such boldness from to talk while the president didn’t give him the chance to. The security tried to stop him but the president told him to speak out his mind.

    Henry walked to the front boiling in anger twisting his fist as if he wants to fight, he send Amanda a deadly glare who was now wondering whether this is not the same Henry that loved her. Melody couldn’t believe that Henry is there to defend her not after breaking her heart with hurtful words.

    “Your excellency there’s problem somewhere and I won’t agree to the cheat” he said

    “And what could that be young boy? He asked as he stay calm to hear him out.

    “We all know that that’s the girl that girl standing there was not part and parcel of this competition and why is her name being announced? Melody is the right person that should be announced not Amanda. That’s the person that represented the school there ” he said pointing to melody who was busy shedding tears and that was when almost everyone in the hall noticed that it’s the truth because none of them noticed that. Even the judge was shocked too, including me Adams who wondered where Henry got such boldness from. Mrs Hannah smiled that finally there’s someone to speak for melody.

    The hall went quiet to hear the final solution of the problem at hand as Amanda was boiling in anger that Henry has betrayed her, many too hated Amanda that instant for taking someone’s glory without being ashamed and stepped on the podium to receive the award. The president looked at melody in a fatherly way and looked back at Amanda to say his final words because he is a father too and he understands such situation and how to handle it.

    “I have already spoken that whoever his or her name is not in the list has nothing in common to do here ” hearing that amdma smiled and melody couldn’t held back here tears as it kept on flowing and Henry was more angrier this time to hear the president saying such. It was really bad to hear such from him and everyone listened very properly to hear his final speech which he did said it.

    “As it is now, melody represented her school but Amanda’s name is the name on the list so Amanda Patrick is the winner…

So melody is going to take her place and represent golden gates school were are sorry for the stress” Mr Adams concluded and a sharp pain crossed Melody’s heart, a pain of joy that her dream is really coming to pass. Henry who stood there frowned his face even the teachers who witnessed how melody failed them the previous time.

    Amanda was boiling in anger as her eyes turned red instantly, Henry tried to calm her down but she didn’t listen as she gave melody a deadly look before running out of them. Mrs Hannah didn’t know what to do in a case like this, the ringing bell distracted them from further talks as melody arranged her clothes entering the hall.

    Amanda was so anger as she took a cab home not knowing that Henry is trailing her behind. Melody got to the podium immediately her name was being announced to come on stage and represent their school.
    The hall was cool as security was so tight just to avoid casual movement.

    Amanda got home, she rushed inside her room and open her wardrobe then brought out two green leaves and rub it and then squeeze the water out. Her palms became green, she lift her palms to her mouth then called Melody’s name thrice with the conclusion that her brain should fail her. She was really angry not knowing that she was being watched by Henry who return to the school just immediately without her knowledge.

    Amanda decided to go back to the competition ground to see how melody will fail for the second time especially for her to fail before the governor and top government officials who were present there.

    Amanda arrived and sat at the back looking at melody in an hatred eyes to see her failure, melody sat there praying in her heart that such thing shouldn’t repeat itself again.

    The competition kick start and the questions were answered until it came to Melody’s turn who was asked a question.

    “Mention one separation technique that you know ” the question came loud and clear as melody pondered on what the answer could be, Mr Adams heart began racing so fast whether melody will disappoint them for the second time likewise other teachers too who were in suspense to hear her answer. 20 seconds has already gone leaving just 10 seconds behind, seeing that melody didn’t even try to attempt the question Amanda smiled wickedly that her plan is really working.

    Seeing that Henry stood up from his place and rushed outside of the hall to the backyard, he took out the same leaves Amanda uses earlier and squeeze it then did the same technique Amanda did but his own speech was different.

    “Melody! Melody! Melody!, Let your senses return “Henry said praying it works. Just as the bell was about to be heard when all hope was gone and even Mrs Hannah was hopeless including Mr Adams. Melody stood up in a rush as if she’s being pursued by someone.

    “On of the separation technique is Filtration ” she said loudly as the judge gave her two points correct. The house was filled with claps and shouts as Mrs Hannah raised up her head in sign of victory, Mr Adams too was smiling widely this time around even Gladys too who was hopeless. Amanda looked back instantly as if she’s suspecting someone to be behind what just happened or could it be that the chief priest just tricked her.

    No it can’t happen, she was really annoyed that melody sense is back to normal as she rushed out of the house feeling so hot tempered.
    Henry smiled from where he stood watching the whole drama that just transpired in the injury time, he was really happy that it’s working.

    Amanda got home again and gather the leaves into her school uniform returning to the school this time around she didn’t went inside but stood outside as she hide herself applying the same method she did the previous time to enable melody fail.
    The competition was becoming more interesting as the students kept providing answers questions being asked.

    It was Melody’s turn again to answer question as the question came on.

    “Can you tell us one of the earthquake that occurred and in which country and which year”?

    Time was running as before, Henry who stood outside watching her wonder what’s happening this time, he thought that the thing worked but what’s happening now? Or could it be that Amanda has reinforced her juju back to live. Without hesitation and time wasting Henry did the same method again as he did previously.

    Everyone were waiting to hear Melody’s response but it seems as if it’s not coming, just as all hope was about going down melody stood up in a fast way as someone who just recalled something from her dream land thus making everyone to be surprised whether that’s her usual Way of answering any question not knowing that someone is behind it.

    “The China earthquake that took place in 1982 in china” Melody’s answer struck even the governor because that’s one of the toughest question that’s not easy to be answered by a student except by a man or woman who knows history very much. Mr Adams was now smiling widely as the hall was clapping for melody who gave a correct answer.
    Amanda who heard everything that happened didn’t understand a bit of what was happening, everytime she tries to bewitched melody brain with her juju something strange will change her plans.

    It was so funny that Amanda on the other tries to destroy Melody’s brain and Henry on the other end was bringing back Melody’s brain from where Amanda took it to.

    It was really an interesting competition as the thing kept repeating itself that way, which Henry will be there as Melody’s savior to rescue her but the question is will melody ever forgive him even when he was trying to help her out?

    The last round was so tough with hard questions which was not easy to answer but in melodys case it was not so as she kept supplying answers to every questions which wowed everyone as they both wonders where she got such mentality from. People who witnessed the previous competition wondered if that’s not the same girl that sat like a molten status in the previous competition but it was still her and nothing changed.

    Everyone were beginning to love melody for her intelligence, as they were all already saying that melody will be the winner but just then something unexpected happened as everyone were shocked and their eyes widen in shock to see such thing.

    🙎 The Poor Girl Episode Twenty Eight:

    Gladys blood was boiling in anger immediately melody just told her what transpired between her and Henry. Melody tried to calm her down telling her that she’s fine but Gladys didn’t listen as he went in search of Henry.

    Desmond on the other end who was in Amanda’s team saw that Amanda has achieved her own goal of making Henry her boyfriend and it’s his own turn now to approach melody because she’s emotionally weak to be taken easily. It was too hard for melody to bear seeing the Henry she so much trusted telling her that she’s nothing to him. But come to think of it why was he eyeing me secretly when he said that? Melody said in her mind but had no answer to the question as her mind was made up to focus on her education not to cry over s guy that pretended he loved her but she finds it difficult to move on.

    Desmond exam was drawing closer, Desmond too was a cute guy who was starting to have fresh bears. He looked more handsome that afternoon morning as he approached melody who was sitting alone in the school garden pretending to be reading her books when her mind was very far from what she was doing.

    “Hi melody “Desmond said with his hands in his pocket.

    “Good afternoon senior Desmond ”

    “Can I join you? He asked but melody only nod her head without saying anything as he sat down. Desmond discovered that melody was only looking at a blank space in the book she was holding without anything written in it.

    “Melody! Melody! ” Desmond called the second time as she jerked from her thoughts and answered him.

    “What’s wrong with you and why are you crying? Desmond asked

    “Am I crying? She returned the question as she clean her eyes with her palm.

    “Melody, I came to remind you that you have not given me an answer concerning what I told you that I want us to be friends “Desmond said out

    “I’m sorry senior Desmond I can’t agree to your proposal.

    “Melody why? I love you with the whole of my heart ” he said just then bringing back the sad memories for melody as she recalled that it was the same thing Henry told her the day he proposed to her too.

    “I’m sorry senior I would have agreed, but my heart belongs to someone else “she said and Desmond felt disappointed

    “Henry I guess “?he said and melody didn’t care to answer as she stood up feeling the pains in her heart, she ran out of him instantly and Desmond knew that she was in pain. Maybe something is wrong somewhere.
    Desmond remembered that there’s a girl in their class dying for him just for him to love her back and give her the opportunity of becoming his girlfriend, why is he trying to force himself on someone who’s heart belongs to someone else? Why is he trying to destroy other people’s relationship just because of a mere girl called Amanda who he’s working with? Seeing melody in tears really touched his heart as he promised to give Esther a chance not to force himself on someone else.

    Henry was having a nice time with Amanda his new love as they both keep calling each other on phone and discuss lengthly.
    Henry made Amanda to promise him one thing which she did, as she promised him that she won’t hide any secret from him. Henry didn’t even care to call melody again since the day he started dating Amanda thus adding more salt to Melody’s wound.

    The school closed and melody was about to go when Desmond approached her and stretched a piece of paper to her.

    “What’s this? She asked

    “Melody, I’ve noticed something and I’m not asking you for a date again. Let’s just be friends “Desmond said and there was sincerity in his eyes as melody looked deep into it.

    “There’s someone out there that loves me back just as you love him too, I guess it’s high time I live her too” he said

    “What’s in that paper? She asked

    “It’s my number, we can talk on phone ”

    “Sorry I don’t have a phone but we can be friends “she said.

    Desmond drop down his head feeling disappointed as he tried to walk away.

    “Fine let me have it” she said and collected the number from Desmond as he smiled and left.

    Henry has been visiting Amanda in her house from time to time but without any form of sexual issues, they were now bond together as Amanda believed that this is true love that Henry is not going to harm her.

    Days passed and still nothing changed concerning melody and Henry as Desmond kept calling her on phone to check on her. It was a tough time for her as both things happen to her but she had to face life and move on.

    It was only two days left for the competition date as Amanda was preparing herself well for the competition without any form of distraction. She was so mean to represent her school as usual, Henry visited her that evening as he met her reading her books as usual but there’s something strange about Amanda room as he kept wondering what it is but later waved off the idea.

    Desmond felt pity for melody because he later understand that it’s because of Amanda’s relationship with Henry that is giving her endless tears as he came to understand that melody truly loves Henry.
    He decided to return to his normal senses and not to be used by anyone.

    The day finally came for the competition as Amanda was preparing in her house for the competition without Henry by her side assuring her that she will be the winner.
    Melody didn’t know whether to go to school or not as the thought of seeing Amanda taking her place haunt her but she later dressed up for school.

    Desmond too was ready to witness the competition too, the sun shine brightly in the sky, the birds flew high up in the sky, the cool breeze began blowing gently as the compound of miles high school were filled with students from different schools and teachers from different schools too who were there to witness the great competition.

    Soon the Corps siren began blowing from a distance signaling that the governor is on his way with his escorts for the competition. Soon he arrived the premises with tight security and team who trailed behind him as if he’s God. He was really pleased to see such a number of students who were present there as he waved his hand to them moving inside the hall.

    Soon Mr Adams arrived the compound well dressed too as his conscience kept battling with him. He sighed melody from a far looking so weak and teary as if she will die any moment from now, he brought out his phone and send a call across to Mrs Hannah who arrived just immediately and to some of his staff who were there, just then Amanda arrived with Henry in his car. Mr Adams called melody who was standing outside near the hall as she approached then feeling embarrassed and frightened on what he has to say. He called on Amanda too who was looking expensively hot showing that she was fully ready to compete.

    She walked down to where they stood without any of them knowing the glue of what Mr Adams is about to say not even Mrs Hannah nor her fellow staff. Time was really burning as Mr Adams cleared his throat and began.

    “I called all of you out here for a reason, which is liable to what happened the previous day of this competition.

    So I want to clearly state that I don’t want such thing repeat itself again today” he said and the words were useless to melody because she’s not the one to compete.

    “So Miss Amanda Patrick I’m sorry to say this you are……..

    He was being interrupted by the school bell that signalled that everyone should be in the hall for the start of the competition.

    Melody was so weak that she couldn’t believe that she sat there without answering any question at all. Amanda tried to decline the offer of representing the school so that it will look as if she’s not behind the happenings but she was told that no one else than her will represent the school as melody left heart broken knowing that she’s not representing the school anymore after all her efforts.

    Henry didn’t understand what was happening to melody his great teacher that improved him in terms of studies, he promised to get to the root of the matter so that melody won’t be put to shame after all her efforts.

    Amanda was preparing to go since school has closed for the day when Henry walked gently and slowly to her thus making her to be frightened whether he’s going to ask her about Melody’s poor performance during the competition but she was wrong.

    “Amanda, are you set to go? Henry asked smiling

    “And what do you mean by that? Are you blind? She replied rudely and wearing a straight face.

    “Hey don’t take it that way na, can’t I ask you anything again? Amanda start to calm down just to hear him out.

This is the kind of opportunity Amanda was looking for so long but she’s not sure whether Henry meant what he said so she started playing beer fingers looking down feeling shy to look at henry in the eyes. Henry walked to her and used his hand to lift up her face.

    “I’ve heard you, but what about Melody? She asked just then Henry’s heart began beating as he think of the possible lie to say.

    “Forget about her for now, let’s focus on herself. She’s nothing to me and we are all friends” he said and Amanda nodded her head though she knew that Henry was lying but she had to accept the fact and grab the opportunity that is before her.

    “I’ve heard…… You “she stammered

    “So what’s your response?” he asked

    “Let me go and think about it first ”

    “No, I want you to give me the reply now please, ” he said wearing a baby face.

    “Okay. I’ve accepted “she answered

    “Wow thank you Amanda I’m grateful for your response. I love you “he said as he hug her

    “I Love you too Henry “she replied and hug him too as she enjoyed the moment praying that it last.

    She left and wave to Henry before entering her car and zoom off. Henry regret ever telling Amanda “I love you ” but be had no other option than to do it that way. He entered his car and left too.

    Henry got home and first thing he placed a call across to Amanda to hear whether she has reached home which she answered yes and she was excited that Henry is caring for her.

    Melody got home looking so weak and teary, her legs were heavy for her as she thinks what she will tell her parents who prayed for her to succeed in the competition which she loosed but she later summoned the courage to tell them since the competition was cancelled but the painful part is just that she’s not the one to represent their school anymore.

    Mrs Armstrong noticed that melody was so weak and moody as she walked to her in a motherly way and sat down.

    “Melody what’s the problem? Why are you like this? She asked and melody burst out crying under her mom shoulder who consoled her to keep calm and tell her what’s the matter.

    “Mom, I failed in the competition “she later said which got Mrs Armstrong surprised because that’s her first time ever I’m her life for her to hear that her daughter has failed any competition since she was in school. She had to console her first before asking her what really happened.

    Melody took her time and explained everything to her mother who knew that what happened is not in a physical state but is a power that is trying to destroy her daughter academically as she contemplate on what to do.
    She consoled her to keep that everything will be fine, as an old woman she later told melody to bring her books from inside which she obediently did.

    Mrs Armstrong using her small knowledge asked melody some few questions from her books which she answered successfully and correctly thus drawing Mrs Armstrong to the conclusion that someone is behind her daughters failure and it’s one of the students that is not being choosen. Her thoughts was so far as she knew that it’s one of her daughters student that wants to take her daughters place in the competition to represent their school.

    “Who did you compete with in your school before going to this one ” Mrs Armstrong asked

    “We were there in number and we were in groups ”

    “I mean who seems to answer questions brilliantly as you did, and who took the second position?

    “Okay mom, her name is Amanda Patrick “she announced as Mrs Armstrong pondered on the name because it sounds familiar to her.

    “You mean it’s the daughter of Mr Patrick the man that happens to hit me with his car?

    “Exactly mom that’s her father. I’m talking about her daughter “melody answered wondering what could have made her mom asked such question.

    “Don’t worry my child, God is in control. The God of the poor will see you through ”

    “Amen ooooo mama thank you “melody replied and stood up heading to her room.

    The next day in school so so boring to her as the event of the previous day started reflecting on her memory. Just as she was sitting thinking about her predicament she saw Henry and Amanda at the school garden laughing and enjoying themselves with snacks. She didn’t mind but seeing Amanda trying to feed Henry with the snacks alert her as she stood up walking to where they sat.

    “Hi Henry ” she greeted

    “Yeah melody whatsup? Henry asked still smiling as Amanda greeted melody too but she was jealous that melody distracted their sweet moment.

    “Can we go to the cafeteria together please? Melody requested and Henry frowned instantly

    “What does that suppose to mean? Are you blind, can’t you see I’m sitting with someone enjoying myself. By the way who are you to me? Henry asked and a sharp pain crossed Melody’s heart as if she’s being stabbed with a knife.

    “Henry it’s me melody I…..

    “And so what? Please don’t annoy me leave” Henry blurted out

    “Henry don’t talk to her like that, she’s your girl “Amanda chipped in

    “Hey don’t start your own, which girl are you talking about? Henry replied angrily as melody stood there with her heart frozen as she watched Henry reaction towards her as if it’s not the same Henry knew. Amanda stood up that instant trying to leave.

    “Please I’m leaving attend to your girl ” Amanda said standing up trying to leave but Henry drag her back.

    “Where are you heading to? Please melody it seems you are distracting us please leave. Okay if you want to know, I love Amanda not you so better leave us now” Henry blurted out. Amanda pretend as if she’s shocked hearing that for the first time so as to look as if she’s not snatching Melody’s boyfriend but deep down she was really happy that melody is feeling heartbroken and sad.

    Melody legs were vibrating as she heard that, she was so furious whether to fight or leave. Her mom advice she gave her started repeating afresh in her memory as it kept repeating. “Be ware of the friendship you keep, you are too young to undergo emotional pains”

    Melody ran out with tears in her eyes to the backyard of the jss1 bock crying her heart out.
    Gladys who was returning from the cafeteria heard someone sniffing behind the block as she halted and decided to check only to find melody crying facing the wall which got her shocked thinking that it’s because of the competition she loosed that has made her start crying afresh not knowing that it’s Henry.

    Mrs Hannah was feeling embarrassed too but she had to wait an collect the certificate of her student if when she has failed. Henry ran after melody as she went straight to a corner crying and sniffing, Gladys followed Henry behind to know what is the mess melody has caused all about.

Melody is a determined girl who is willing to sacrifice her time to education so as to come out the best and changed her parents status.

    Henry drop her and wave her goodbye after explaining the outcome of the new car that it’s because of her(melody) that his father bought him the car which they fixed a date to celebrate their success after the most important competition.
    Amanda got home feeling so jealous and her hatred for melody increased the more from 100% to 120% which she couldn’t control it anymore.

    She entered the sitting room man’s found her parents, she greeted them and walked inside her room in a hurry without looking back and her parents knew that she was really angry because she’s being defeated by another girl which has never happened. Mr Patrick smiled a little seeing her daughter behavior.

Mrs Patrick ran to her room saying some audible word as she returned with a bottle of olive oil and sprinkle it at her husband.

    The judge couldn’t move or say something cause he was really stunned with melodys answer as he wondered the kind of girl she is because ever since he became the chief judge in golden gate competition be has never seen any one brilliant as melody.

    Big men who studied physics were also present in the hall as the were all amazed to hear the exact answer the question needed. The chief judge began clapping by himself which has never happened as he stood up as many people joined too to clap and soon the house could no longer contain people because of the noise and claps. The judge requested silent which the hall later calm down.

    “Correct 2 points ” the judge announced as people began clapping like never before for the new brilliant Henry which they wondered where he did brain surgery and how it happened.

    She smiled at melody knowing the work she did.
    It happened that Gladys was in group A to make Amanda failed the competition as she end up giving wrong answers to the question being asked them. Amanda was so angry and fed up with Gladys wrong answer.

    “Sir, there’s a problem somewhere “Amanda stood up telling the judge

    “What’s it young lady? “the judge asked. Everyone went silent to hear her speech.

    “Sir I think Gladys is here to make me loose by giving wrong answers ”

    “How do you know about this? The judge asked

    “Gladys here is melody’s best friend, and she is really intelligent but she’s trying to act dull so as to make us loose, so sir I need an action to be taken “she said and sat down

    Everyone wondered whether what she’s saying is the truth as the panel discussed on how to solved the issue at hand. Mr/ Mrs Patrick were not happy seeing her daughter is about to loose.

    “Silent everywhere” the judge announced and the hall went silent immediately.
    “We have come to the conclusion that
    that round has been cancelled and it is only one representative that will stand for each group now, so now choose your representative and the rest two should please go down “the judge announced as Amanda was smiling.

    Gladys didn’t want it to look as if she’s a betrayal, she stood up followed by the other one as Amanda sat down as the representative of group A. Melody too stood up followed by Mike to go down, Henry drag her down and stood up with Mike, he whispered to her ears.

    “I know you can do it melody, make me proud, make the whole world to see and know who you really are “Henry said and climbed down followed by Mike. Now it was only one representative left in each group which was Amanda for group A, melody for group B and Brownson for group C. The judge start all over again with different question but same subject.

    It happened so strange that at the end of round 2 Amanda scored 20 points, melody scored 10 points and Brownson scored 10 points. Mrs Hannah what makes melody’s performance to be this poor, Gladys and Henry too didn’t understand what was happening, Amanda was overwhelmed with joy that finally she has beaten down Melody that she’s going to emerge the winner as she relaxed on her sit.
    Melody couldn’t help than to smile.

    It came to the final round which was English and mathematics, the questions were really hard and tough. It wasn’t an easy round. Amanda was so sad that she kept on loosing questions whenever it’s her turn. The judges took time and set tough questions in the last round so as to determine the most brilliant student.

    The last round finally came to an end as they were all expecting the final results. The judges asked the contestants to go down the podium and relaxed for their results which they did.

    The DJ gave a soft music which made the students danced to the sound of the music, thus giving the judges the time they needed to round up everything. Soon they were done as the DJ ceased his music so as to enable everyone hearing clearly but before then the principal Mr Adams climb the poduim again and said a brief word before the final results.

    “Good afternoon everyone ”

    “Good afternoon sir ”

    “We’ve all seen the performance on the stage back then so nobody is to be told what happened, so let’s hear the result of the just concluded competition.

    “The third position goes to group C which is Brownson brown with a total point of 35 points. On the round one he scored 20 point, round two 10 points and the last round 5 points ”
    Everyone clapped for him as he went on stage.

    “The second position goes to Amanda Patrick with the total point of 45 points. The first round was 20 points, the second round 20 points and the third round 5 points. So let’s appreciate her as she comes up.

    Amanda was so annoyed as she went up on the poduim that melody is going to take her place representing their school in the top competition.
    Gladys and Henry didn’t even allow the judge the call the overall winner as they were overwhelmed with joy as they both shouted, even Mrs Hannah too knew that melody can’t loose just like that.

    “And the overall winner goes to who?”the judge asked

    “Melody Armstrong! ” Henry and Gladys shouted from the back of the hall thereby drawing attention to them.

    “The overall winner of the just completed competition, I’ve seen anyone as brilliant as her. She’s so unique and decent, I’m talking about Melody Armstrong ”

    “she’s the winner with the sum of 70 points. During round one she scored 20 points, round two she scored 10 points and on the round three oh my God what a beautiful and brilliant girl, she scored 40 points coupled with the bonus question she answered.

    Nine sits could be possibly seen on the podium which was in the three’s dividing the three groups into three position.

    Soon the hall became very silent and cool with the help of the air conditioner in the hall as the principal stepped on the podium and was welcomed by a warm claps by the students. Everyone stood on their feet giving him a standing ovation as they sang the national anthem the two stanza followed by the national pledge.

    “Welcome to this great competition “Mr Adams said after everyone sat down and be looked at everyone seeing the happiness and suspense written in their faces as they were all waiting for the competition to commence, Mr Adams smiled and continue

    “My great students ,this is a great opportunity for you all. This day is to test how brilliant you are. And I must say, please put more effort to be the winner and represent our school ” he said and climb down the podium as the students clapped for him because he is a man of short speech without taking people long.
    The DJ gave a short music and later reduced as Mrs Hannah climbed the podium after the principal step down.

    Parents were also present to see their children compete likewise Mr Stephen who was there to see whether his boy has really changed in his failure but melody didn’t have anyone by her side.
    Mrs Hannah said a brief word before calling the names of the representatives to take their places on the podium where they are going to sit.

    Amanda name was the first in the list as she was being called to the podium and the house was filled with shouts and claps by everyone who knew Amanda to be very brilliant and as the one who always represent their school in most of the competition as she smiled and took her place. Mr and Mrs Patrick were there too as they smiled at their daughter waiting to see her performance, the names of group A members were read out thus making Mrs Hannah to switch to group B names.

    Melody name was called as the first name as she walked to the podium to take her place, people didn’t really clap that much for her because they haven’t seen her representing their school before. Henry name was read after melody as the hous was filled students murmured who could have choosen him while some even laugh out loud wondering who choosed him because they all know that when it comes to education that Henry is a fool and a coconut head, he smiled to himself as he walked to the podium. Mr Stephen looked down feeling embarrassed that almost everyone in the school knew his son to be the poor one when it comes to competition stuff.

    He looked down, the names were finally read as the students representing each group sat in a row looking at the huge crowd ready to answer questions by the judges.
    The panel of judges were set, everyone that needed to be there in the competition as the competition kicked off. The rules and regulations governing the competition were read out and which they told the competitors to adhere to it.

    The first round started with physics as the first came to the group A. The hall was so silent to hear the question and the answer that will be supplied.

    “Group A, this question is for you. State the law of gravity ”
    Amanda quickly stood up without allowing the judge to land well.

    “The law of gravity states that anything that goes up must surely comes down ”
    The house echoed for her and sound claps accompanied her answer.

    “Group B choose your question ”

    “Question no.5 ” melody replied

    ” can you tell us the speed that light travels in a second? ”
    The hall went silent to hear the answer from the girl called Melody.

    🙎 The Poor Girl Episode Twenty Two:

    Henry woke up sweating profusely as someone who is being chased by a lion itself, he switched on the bedside lamp immediately to be sure that he was sleeping alone. Lo he was sleeping alone as the dream kept flashing back into his memory, anytime he closes his eyes he saw the image of him with Amanda lying naked on the bed.

    But at least he thanked God that it was a dream not real, he looked at the clock and the time tells 11:05 pm. What a scary dream “he said to himself thinking whether it’s a mere dream or Amanda is planning to drug him so as to have sex with him. He covered himself and slept off.

    Next Day

    Henry was seen in the class looking so moody and dull, it’s obvious that the dream he had seeing Amanda drugged him to have sex with her still disturbs him. Melody watched him from a distance thinking about what could possibly be the cause of his dull mood.
    Harry who was Henry best friend walked to him asking him about his mood only for Henry to tell him that all is well.

    Gladys too was still in school making sure that melody is safe, all this while the three groups that were to compete in the competition always meet to have the issue solved.

    Mr Stephen Henry’s father came back from work to see the house so cool and silent, he saw Henry’s phone lying on the centre class table which was strange to him because Henry always uses his phone either to play games or listen to music anytime he’s back from school without caring to study his books.

    Mr Stephen walked to Henry’s room and twist the door open, seeing Henry reading his books and solving physics assignment by himself without using any text book really surprised him to the bone which he didn’t know how it happened but planned on surprising Henry as he left the room unnoticed.

    Henry was still in his room when his ringing phone distracted him as he rushed to pick the call only to see that it was Amanda calling him thus reminding of the dream he had the previous night, he contemplate whether to pick the call or not. The phone kept ringing for the third time and he placed the phone on his ear after picking it.

    “Hello Henry ”

    “yes Amanda, I’m listening ”

    “Please can you be of help to me? “she asked using a calm voice

    “What’s that?” he asked

    “Please I’m very sick and I won’t be able to come to school tomorrow so p… ”
    She didn’t finished her statement when Henry hang up the call as his heart began racing fast. That was the same thing that happened in the dream, Amanda called him give the same excuse which she later drugged him to have sex with her. The thought alone made Henry scared, so it was not a mere dream but a revelation on what that is going to happen so as to save Henry from Amanda’s trap.

    Melody got home, still reading her books as usual preparing very well to be the winner of the competition, she never rest a day without reading and solving some questions just then Henry called entered her phone as the phone vibrated because she normally hide it from her mom this making her to put it on silent mode always to avoid her mom hearing it when it rings. She excused herself to where she normally picks her call to talk with Henry. They talked at length after which Henry told her I love you ”

    “I love you too dear”she said as Henry ended the call.

    “I said it melody “her mom interrupted as she turned back in shock to see her mother standing behind her which means that she heard everything they said with Henry as her phone fell down and her lips trembling. The looks Mrs Armstrong was giving her was a deadly one which means that she was not in support of the mess melody has gotten herself involved.

    “I’ve been suspecting you all this while “Mrs Armstrong said without melody saying anything.

    “Get back to the house now and wait for me “she commanded as melody picked up the phone to go.

    “No, give it to me you are no longer using this again “she said and collected the phone from her as she thinks about how she’s going to stay without hearing Henry’s voice.

    People who knew Henry to be a dull brain type mocked at him hearing that he was choosed to also compete in the competition knowing that he will woefully fail not knowing that someone has really changed his life to the best one.

    The day was drawing near for the competition as ss2 students especially those that were choosed prepaid very well for the competition. Henry got home only to meet his father at home which was strange because he always comes back from work 5:00pm .henry greeted his father wondering what makes him to come home early.

    “Henry drop your bag and dress up we are going out together “Mr Stephen said

    “Dad, anything the problem? “he asked

    “Not at all boy, we need to hang out as fatger and son”he said and Henry smiled heading inside just then his father’s phone started ringing interrupting them both

    “Hello “Mr Stephen said after picking the call.

    “Okay, you can bring it if so cause I’m waiting in the house, don’t delay oo”he said and end the call calling Henry back

    “I’m sorry son, we have to cancel the trip till next time I’m sorry “he said pretending as if he doesn’t know the meaning of the call he just answered.

    After 30 minutes, the gate of Mr Stephen house flung open by the gate man as two expensive cars drove inside the compound, one was a very brand new car as the other was an old one.
    Mr Stephen called Henry out which got him surprised wondering what he has for him as he stepped outside.
    The men that came with the car alighted from the car having a clean look at the environment.

    “Henry, look at who we have here”his father announced

    “Who are they dad? He asked looking confused

    “They are special people from special place which is so unique. Congratulations my son, you’ve really surprised me”.

    “If you kiss me again in your house I will file a case against you in the court of law “she said pointing to him as Henry couldn’t hold back his laughter as he laughed and fall on the couch.

    #10 minutes later Henry was well dressed in an expensive shirt with a long trouser and a face cap with a pair of canvas on his legs. The smell that was from Henry was a strawberry smell as melody walked out with him to where he packed his car and they both left.

    Amanda sat in her room going through the pictures he sent to Henry the previous day praying that he believes it and turn his back on melody, it was very own time to strike so as to have Henry all to herself as she picked up her phone to dial a number.

    Melody and Henry shopping was an unforgettable one as the event kept flashing back into melody’s memory as she got to the house. Henry bought her different things clothes, jewelries, and other women stuffs like that but she asked him to keep it in his house so as to avoid question from her parents that anytime she needs it she will inform him.

    “Hello Amanda whatsup ?”

    “Hello Henry please I need your help “Amanda said in a low and weak voice

    “Amanda what’s wrong, why is your voice like that dear? “he asked

    “Henry I’m very sick since I got back from school and the worst is that my parents are not home yet “she complained

Amanda came out and took him inside the house which look expensive too as Henry took his time to study the environment.

    “Welcome Henry and thanks for coming “she said after giving Henry a sit, she was wearing mini skirt that stopped at her thighs while some of her body parts were not properly covered by the clothes.

    “You are always welcome dear, no need to thank me”

    “What can I offer you dear? She asked

    “Chill water will be okay ”

    “Only? No way you are taking only that “she said and left returning with two glasses and a juice which made Henry smiled.

    She poured the juice into two glasses as she take one and handed the other to Henry who drank the content in it, Amanda took her own slowly as she kept on glancing at Henry to see his reaction. Suddenly Henry started feeling dizzy but had a strong erection at that moment as he tried to cover it with his hands not knowing that Amanda saw it already. Henry was lost stairing at Amanda and licking his lips at the same time Amanda stood up from her place walking to where he sat shaking her butt so hard.
    “What is wrong Henry are okay? “she asked bending down that her breast got in view thus giving Henry a tough time as he grab her forcefully on the neck and place a hot kiss on her lips, she didn’t reciprocate as she pushed Henry away.

    “Henry what’s the meaning of this? ”

    “I need you right now”henry replied and walked to her with his already erected dick as he grab her again and began kissing her this time around she reciprocate to the kiss as they both devour each others lips, the devil in Henry’s trouser needed more than that, he took her breast in his hands fondling it as Amanda let out moans that filled the house, Henry could not hold it any longer as he unbuttoned Amanda’s clothes and zip down her skirt exposing her red pant that came into view.

    Amanda didn’t want it to happen in their parlour as she dragged him to her room and locked the door from the inside, Henry pounced on her while she laid on the bed, soon clothes were flying in the air as they both laid naked and Henry on top of her driving her crazy into the badlands. The house was filled with Amanda moan as she begged Henry not to stop ,Henry released after 30minutes which they both laid exhausted. They both laid exhausted, as he laid there sleeping, he woke up around 5:45pm.

    He looked around and noticed that he was lying naked with Amanda in the same bed, he jerk up from the bed shouting and wondering how he got there, he got up quickly and tap Amanda to wake up.

    “What happened? What am I doing here “he asked immediately

    “Henry we had sex, that’s what happened”

    “Amanda why? How could you? You are so wicked “he complained bitterly as he regretted everything that happened in the room. It’s obvious that Amanda drugged him and he had the sex under the influence of the drug.

    “But at least we both enjoyed it “Amanda said and Henry landed a hot slap on her cheek

    “How could you be so wicked to drug me to have sex with you? He said and wore his clothes running out of the room with the thought that he had betrayed melody’s love for him . Henry couldn’t believe that Amanda could have gotten to that point of drugging him to have sex with her.
    Amanda stood up from the bed smiling, covered herself with a towel as she walked to the corner of her room smiling as she took out the camera that had everything captured in the room, she stopped it as she smiled. It’s obvious that she had a camera in her room that had everything recorded especially the sex scene as she entered the bathroom to clean up.

    Henry got home feeling guilty for everything, just then melody’s call entered and he was feeling guilty that he couldn’t even pick the call as he thought about the wicked act that Amanda made him to betray his love for melody.
