==THE STORY THAT HAS NEVER BEEN TOLD== EPISODE 8 The next minute we were in front of the whole class ready to embark on the adventure as contained within the novel. ”Alright, you two will read in successions while I give explanations wherever necessary,” the teacher adviced. The novel began with a scene where Alozie(represented by me) , who came visiting from the city, was driving his Volkswagon Beetle along a village path when his eyes caught a very beautiful feminine figure walking alone along the road and so he decided to do a little wooing. *translated into English* Alozie(me): ”hello, excuse me beautiful lady” Ugonma(her): ”yes, how may I help you sir?” Alozie(me): ”please, are you from this village? I asked because your beauty is beyond imagination.” *The whole class erupted into great laughter* The teacher then made efforts to calm the class before signaling us to continue. Ugonma(her): ”hmmm, I hear o. Thank you sir. Now can I continue my journey?” Alozie(me): ”sure, but not until you tell me your name and whose daughter you are. Omalicha…Achala-ugo…Akwa nwa.” *the class once again erupted into shouts of ‘eeeeehhh, hmmm, ok na etc’ as I dished out the sweet names to ugonma as contained in the novel* We kept reading the novel in succession just like the teacher had directed. I must say I was swept away with the ease this girl read the book. She fluently, in an expert style, read the novel while always adhering to the pitch, gesture and mood representations of the novel. The manner with which we performed held the class spell- bound and always looking forward to another Igbo class. All these while I began developing affection and interest for this damsel but I never approached her since I was yet to gather much information on her history in the school and to know if she’s already affiliated (lol) to someone. ”Spain, how far? Hope you have seen your wife today?” Mike asked jokingly as we were walking down home after school one sunny thursday afternoon. ”Wife? Which wife are you talking about?” I asked him back with a confused look. ”Stop pretending jor. Am talking about the newly admitted fine girl you always read that novel with,” Mike explained. My ears quickly tingled on hearing the phrase ‘newly admitted’ as I immediately could no longer bottle-up my feelings.”Mike, did you just said she’s a new student? My bro, to tell you the truth, I like the girl o but I just don’t know whether she already belonged to someone. I don’t even know her name yet,” I replied while we waited to board a bus home. ”I think she and ugochi normally walks home together. Don’t worry I will ask ugochi early in the morning tomorrow about her. Just get prepared to tell her you love her tomorrow after school,” Mike concluded just as the last passenger took her sit next to ours in the bus. Ugochi happened to be Mike’s flirt-girl then. She’s rated among the hottest girls in the school. She’s this slim, fair, neat, jovial, pretty girl with lovely straight legs. My mind automatically became restless on hearing the great challenge awaiting me tomorrow for that would be my first time of going to woo a girl although I had always lied to Kachi and Mike about it whenever they asked. I never really was myself throughout the rest of thursday evening as I kept on strategizing and restrategizing on how am going to face this girl who seemed experienced in this game judging by her company of friends which were the crême de la crême girls of the school. TO BE CONTINUED. hmmn,is spain qoinq to profess his love to the said qirl?? Time: 10:00pm admins note: This is just the beqininq of spains life as a child.
