Some of my class mates engaged in wooing girls so as to emulate us but it unfortunate their relationship lasted only a month or probably some days.
Some of my school teachers likes me due to my reputation, character and my affairs, especially Miss Precious who always asked me to come to is house each time we crossed each paths. Miss Precious is my biology teacher.
I and Peter were busy discussing football issue when a junior students took a permission and walked to us, he said that Miss Precious sent for me, it's urgent that I should see her quickly.
What could have happened?, while such urgent call?. My heart was beating heavily in a way that I always lost my walking steps, I reached at Miss Precious office I stood for some minutes before I boldly walked in.
Me : good morning ma!
Miss Precious : good morning Light.
Me : ma you sent for me ?
Miss Precious : yes, have a seat.
I sat down feeling uncomfortable.
Miss Precious : why have you refused to come to my house?
Me : nothing ma, just that has been busy.
Miss Precious : what about this coming Saturday will you also be busy?
Me : to be honest I can't tell.
Miss Precious : (feeling livid) make sure you make a chance because I all being waiting for you, also don't mess up with me this time(she frowned her face) you can go.
As I stood to go she handed me a piece of paper that contains her address, how on earth can a young lad in my status visit a high class woman, oh my God I never thought about this circumspect.
I decided not to invited anyone in my present knot after some days of thinking, I made my mind to visit her.

Before 8a.m. had already arrived at Miss Precious street with the address she gave to me, it wasn't had for my to recognized, I got to a beautiful duplex with a beautiful flowers I pushed the gate in and was surprised to see different types of cars, Miss Precious is damn rich, but why does she insisted I should visit her?
What does she want from me?,
I was lost in thought till I remembered have been standing for some minutes.
I pressed a bell at the front of her door, it rang twins when she came out she was so excited to see me, she hugged me and ushered me in, her sitting room was resplendent and stunning all her decoration were wonderfully made all are in whitish. I sat down surveying all over the room, she walked in with a mini skirt looking romantic.
Miss Precious : food is ready hope you are feeling comfortable?
Me : yes ma, but ma are you the only person living here?
Miss Precious : please the food is getting cold, I will answer your question when we get there.
Both of us sat down after praying which she did we started eating,( a Fred rice and chicken ) she is good in cooking, i was enjoying the food when I remembered she haven't answered my previous question.
