As she walked down the school's corridor with contentment, feeling happy because her father fulfilled her sweet sixteen birthday wish as she would always tag it. She noticed as people mocked her from a distance, some would indirectly point at her and murmur something she could not hear. Her heart sank immediately, she kept wondering what made people stare at her like that. Some passed her and laughed and hissed at her.

"Haa, what could have happened, jesus!! Did my period stain me? Omo, God abeg o" several thoughts ran through her mind and she still couldn't place what was wrong.

She felt her stomach grumble, with her heart racing fast, she felt it was due to the hot akara and pap she rushed with excitement before coming to school. She immediately hurried to the school toilet to know if her period stained her school skirt.

She sat on the toilet seat, as different thoughts ran through her head, she removed her skirt to check if she was stained, but she wasn't, why then were they staring at her that way and making such side comments?? She immediately burst to hot tears because she hasn't experienced such a thing in her innocent life before. She managed to get up from the toilet seat whose smell was so choking and stinking but she didn't even mind. She wiped her face with her left hands and managed to be strong, as she proceeded to find out what was wrong .

She walked to her class, but the glare was still the same, even her junior students were saying things her mind couldn't phantom. She wanted the ground to open and engulf her, but well, "if wishes were horses".

She slowly walked into her classroom with her head facing down, immediately there were sudden uproar from her classmates. Some were banging their lockers and laughing, others were screaming "Nwa pastor" ( PASTOR'S CHILD).

She has never been this humiliated before in her entire life, she was very confused. She managed to find her locker, dust her seat and her locker with her handkerchief, sat down and bent her head on the locker. 

"Why's she acting like she doesn't know what she did?? Ehn? Should we tell her abi make we mind our business.... Hahahaha" her classmates said and laughed at her back.

She couldn't bear it anymore, she decided to call her best friend Ndidi, who sat down on a boys lap while chewing gum and laughing, to confirm what's happening with everyone.

"Ndidi please come, she called with the come sign and bent her head, down her locker again.

"Amara, what's up?? Why you dey moody? Wetin dey do you?? Ndidi asked while bending down to ask her friend.

"i don't kno.. w, e. Ve.. ry...body is just acting unusual today . Amara said as she burst into tears.

"chill nothing dey happen, maybe they are pranking you, cheer up jor, before the teacher finds you sobbing like this." Ndidi said while cleaning her best friends tears.

As Ndidi left, Amara still didn't believe her words, she just prayed the day would just come to an end.

Ifeoma, the class most picked on, and most bullied, didn't find as the classmates were making jest of Amara funny. So she summoned courage to stand up and meet amara and tell her whats going on. As she reached Amaras locker, she bent down and whispered to her ear to shift for her to sit down . Amara raised her eyes which was already reddish to see who was that, she adjusted for ifeoma to sit down. Ifeoma started by asking Amara if she know whats happening, amara said No with so much innocence.

"Well, Ndidi posted your nudes to our class whatsapp group, she also posted your sex tape with one boy that's is not in our school, you guys did alot of wild stuffs there, and I couldn't believe my eyes. As soon as she posted it, it circulated around the school, I'm sure the school management has gotten one too. She brought out her phone and showed her couples of videos and images that were sent to the group". Ifeoma said pitifully.

" Jesus, jesus, jesus, jesus, I'm finished, how did this happen, how did they make this video, jesus, I'm dead oo..... " Amara shouted as hot stream of urine drenched her body while shivering.

She couldn't believe her eyes, she wanted to die, how was she not added to the whatsapp group?? How can her best friend do that to her?? How did she do this?? She thought she was still a virgin?? Many unanswered question ran through her mind, as she got up from her seat and hurriedly ran out of the class crying and covering her head in shame. Ifeoma ran after her, shouted her name for her to stop. Amara couldn't believe her eyes, she wanted to die, her life was ruined, what will she do at 16, she wanted to be the school's prom queen, her life has shattered, her dreams nko, how can she still go and represent her school at the cowpedia competition.

Amara wailed from her school to home, she wanted to die, how will her parents react to this scandal?? how will her fathers church cope?? How will the choir look at her now?? What of her fathers congregation??

She couldn't think straight, she got home, opened her house and went straight to her room and locked up the door. What was her friend's motive? She truly loved her friend and trusted her, she felt so betrayed, her mom warned her about her friend. She couldn't stop crying and cursing her school.

She picked up her iphone x, she got from her father yesterday on her sweet 16 birthday and called Ndidi but she kept on declining her call.

Ndidi later picked up her call.

"Hello, why are you disturbing me??? Don't you know its school time? Abi you want make them seize my phone?? Ndidi asked harshly...

"Why Ndidi?? Why?? Why have you ruined my life?? I loved you and trusted you, how did i have sex with that boy? I cant remember anything, what did i do to you to deserve this?? Amara asked with tears rolling down her cheeks, as her bed was already soaked with tears and running nose.

"You really want to know ba? Ndidi asked with an evil smile.

"Yes you evil witch, tell me!!!!!!! Amara screamed on top of her voice.

"Relax boo, it's your sweet 16 birthday present, from me to you, hope you liked it bitch?? Hahahaha.. miss little virgin, you have always claimed to be the most perfect girl in our school, how can you enter our school only in ss2 and try to take everything away fro me, first you took my first position, you took senior prefect that i worked hard for years to get, but it was given to you, every boys in my class that loved me, started crushing on you, teachers started hailing you, every competition i wanted to go, they picked you instead!! You think it was easy for me?? Do you think i would just sit down and watch you take everything from me?? Uhhh!! You made my life a living hell, my parents always compared me to you!!!!!! They always wanted me to be like you, i was always flogged daily because i couldn't be like you! I was a laughing stock in my home because you overtook my class positions! And yes you would always make mouth of how you were a virgin. So us wey no be virgin make we go die na?? You always bashed me at every slightest opportunity you get to remind me of how im not miss little virgin! " Ndidi screamed, as hot tears ran down her cheeks in anger.

"Jesus, i ne.. v.. e.... r saw you as a competition, i only saw you as the sister i never had, I'm sorry if you felt i made your life uncomfortable but you ruined my life, i didn't fuck that guy, all i remember was eating those cookies at my party and i felt strange Ndidi." Amara sobbed.

" please shut up, you were drugged at your birthday party by those boys, i will show this videos to my parents and your pastor parents for them to see you're not perfect as they think and that their little miss perfect pastor daughter is a whore, like how you were riding those dicks like a pro... Hahahahaha.. you're a dummy.. " Ndidi laughed wickedly.

" So that's why i felt pains and burning sensation over my vagina and tummy when i woke up this morning, but i asked you, you said that it was because of i got drunk that's why i got stomach ache. You're purely vile and evil, you will pay for this dearly!!!!!!!!! " Amara let out a loud shout while crying .

"Mtchewww do your worst! Ndidi hissed and ended the call .

Amara was short of words, she disappointed her parents and people that looked up to her, she has wasted her life and ruined the life of her loved ones. She couldn't think straight, she could have listened to her parents and not host a birthday party or she could have listened to her mom's advice and cut ndidi off as a friend.

She picked up her phone, she saw ifeomas missed calls and messages, she saw her brothers calls and parents. She made a video about what happened, played the recorded call she recorded while on call with ndidi, and all the confessions Ndidi made , and played it in a video with her heart full of pain and regrets. She sent the video to ifeoma on Whatsapp, and pleaded for her to circulate it to the class group and show it to her (Amara's) parents and all her loved ones. She went down to the store near her house, bought snipper, went to her room wrote some short notes, drank the snipper and hoped God forgave her and accept her dirty misled soul.

In a short piece of paper beside her lifeless body, she wrote;

"DEAR SWEET PARENTS, BEFORE YOU GET THIS, I WILL BE GONE TO MEET MY CREATOR FOR MY FINAL JUDGEMENT, IM SORRY FOR LETTING YOU DOWN, I HOPE YOU CAN FORGIVE ME CAUSE I CAN'T FORGIVE MYSELF. I LOVE YOU, I WOULD BE YOUR DAUGHTER IN MY AFTER LIFE, PLEASE PRAY FOR ME. "
