Eve is the daughter of a manufacturing business tycoon and a fashion designer mother. She has a younger sister called Success. Eve is a very pretty girl. Shoulder length dark hair, a rich chocolate skin of a true African lady, brown eyes and soft pink lips. Her mother was born of an Igbo mum and an European man. She is also very brilliant.

“Wake up!!! Wake up sleepy head!!”.
“Success! Leave me alone!” Eve groaned using her pillow to cover her head. Success dragged the pillow away from her and hit her with it.
“Wake up! It’s time for school.”
Eve opened one eye.
“What time is it?”
“7:30 am.” Eve shot up from the bed.
“What?? Omigosh! Omigosh!” She jumped down from the bed and hit her leg on the bedpost. While trying to grab the foot she fell on the floor. Success stared at her with her hands on her jaw. Eve ran into the bathroom and took her bath in record time. She jumped into her school clothes, combed her hair and rushed downstairs with Success on her heels. She stopped abruptly.
“Wait a second, where is mum and dad?” Sh asked looking around.
“Dad has gone to work and mum has travelled to Dubai again. Dad left this money on the table for our expenses today.” Success said and handed over fifty thousand naira to Eve. Eve sighed.
This is one of the biggest problems of having rich parents. They have no time for them. Even Success that was the last born has never been on an outing with their parents. They always tend to think that giving them money would make up for the neglect.
The driver drove them to school and they arrived just in time before the school bell rung. Success ran to her class after making plans to collect her own share of the money during break time.
Eve felt a hand grab her elbow as she entered her class. She is in SS3A.
“Good morning Eve!” A high pitched voice shriller in her ear. It was her best friend Vera. She was a short and plump girl. Very bubbly and friendly.
Eve smiles at her. “Good morning Vee.”
“I have a gist for you.”
“Vera you always have one gist or the other everyday. Ah! Where do you hear them from anyway?”
“Don’t worry about that. I heard that Osmond likes you.”
Eve stopped in her tracks.
“What do you mean?”
“He has been telling everyone that he likes you and wants to date you.”
“Ha! Why would he even do that?” She mused.
Osmond was the Greek god of the school. With epic good looks and a very ‘hot head’. He and Eve were always dragging the first position. Sure enough when Eve entered the class, all eyes were on her.
Which kind of problem is this for God’s sake? She thought. She avoided all the stares and sat down on her seat. She found a note on her locker.
Good morning Eve. Please can we talk during break time? It’s no cause for alarm. I just want to talk and see your beautiful face.
Love Osmond.
Eve smiled, folded the note and tucked it into an area of her bag. She decided to go and see what he wanted. If she didn’t like it she could always leave. With that thought she brought out her books to read just as the Biology teacher walked in.
