Miss Popular ( She’s Everyone choice)

“What’s this” Romeo said bringing out the wristwatch from Pamela bag.

“What!!!! How did this get into my bagpack” Pamela exclaimed shocked.

“So Pamela could stood so low, to steal, despite all their riches”A girl said from the class.

“Will you shut up, how could you think Pamela could do that” Kiles said.

“Why are you supporting her, let her proof that she’s innocent”Another of the class said.

“What nonsense are you talking about, why will she want to steal his wristwatch “Kiles shouted.

“Everyone stop, it was my mistake, I told her to keep it for me yesterday, Yes we were at the studio together talking about the competition.

I told her that, I need to go to somewhere, but she insisted that we should complete our discussion, I promised to come back, but she didn’t believe, not until I drop my wristwatch, but I couldn’t go back there, that she had to called me yesterday and scolded me from not coming back.

See the miss calls, she’s the one I saved with miss popular, see this, I forgot I gave her my wristwatch, and she might have also forget, if not she would have reminded me I gave her yesterday ” Romeo said.

“You should be careful next time, and don’t just accused anybody anyhow, I don’t know how you could be so dumb to forget this, idiot”Kiles hissed and sit down.

“This is a total lie, we didn’t spoke yesterday, is he trying to save me, did he actually plot the wristwatch in my bag, there’s something fishy, am very sure someone did this to humiliate me”Pamela thought and sit.

“Pamela am sorry for cursing trouble for you, please just try to forgive me” Romeo apologized.

“Forgive me too” The girl who spoke earlier apologized.

The studio

“Romeo, what was that, I know you are trying to save her from being humiliated, but why do you take those insult from Kiles. And why did you do that, you found your wristwatch in her bag, yet you saved her, that’s kind of you”Angela said.

“I am sure is a set up, to think of it, why will someone like Pamela, A rich daughter, who get everything she needs at the right time, will want to steal my wristwatch ” Romeo said.

“Romeo, I was also thinking the same thing “Angela said.

“Hello, can I have a discussion with you ” Pamela said.

“Hey! Miss popular here you are”Romeo said.

“Let me excused you”Angela said.

“No, I won’t take long, you should stay here”Pamela said.

“I will leave the two of you”Angela said and Leave.

“What was that for?” Pamela asked.

“Can’t you just try, not to be rude for a minute”Romeo said.

“Tell me why do you put your wristwatch in my bag and lie you gave me yesterday?” Pamela asked with so much anger.

“Am not in the mood to fight today, can you please excuse me” Romeo stood to leave.

Pamela block his way. “Sorry, but I want to know, why? you did that”Pamela said.

“You are just like a chameleon, you just say sorry, and you are already rude again. Well I saved you, so you should be happy and stop bothering me”Romeo said.

“I deserve to know, you will have to explain to me, what? that drama was all about” Pamela insisted.

“Well, you should asked Kiles and his gang, I don’t know how they end up putting my wristwatch in your bag, but am very sure they are against you, I saw them given each other signal.

Is like they are trying to play some silly games with you, like they will cause trouble for you and will also rescue you.

Why am I even saying all this to you, you won’t believe me, so there’s no point” Romeo explained.

“I think that must be truth” Pamela said and remember something.

“Why are you always like this, can’t you see properly”Pamela shouted at Kiles.

“Am very sorry queen, I will help you pack your things” Kiles said.

“Don’t worry I will pack it myself” Pamela said angrily and was about to bend.

“Take, sorry for barging into you” Kiles said and handover the bagpack.

Pamela took the bag and leave for the class still on call.

“Stay away from me” She said and pushed him.

“I can’t tolerate your pride again, you wanted to fall but I helped you, you rest on my chest like your life depends on it, but you are now blaming me “Romeo said and hissed.

“Hey, you should be happy that someone like me rest on your chest, and why are you behaving like a fool, your chest is so flat not compared to mine”Pamela blurted and cover her mouth.

“WOW! WOW!! WOW!!!, Continue why did you stop, you have a big chest and my is small, hmmm” Romeo said.

“Who are you talking to on phone?” Pamela asked.

Romeo use his hand to rub his eyes to be sure, if he’s dreaming.

“Do you just asked me, who I was talking to on my own phone” Romeo said.

“Yes, and you must answer me”Pamela said.

“Who am I to you, and why are you involving in my personal life?” Romeo asked and feezes the gum he was chewing.
