Societal Status

Alissia POV

"Watch where you go Idiot" Doris said as Peter bumped into them while heading somewhere only he knows. He shivered and scurries away from them.

"Lowlife" Temilade says in disgust

"I wonder where people like him comes from, the gutter probably" Doris said scrunching up her face in irritation.

"And people like you hail from the devil" I said from behind them, they all turned back in sync like they are being controlled by a remote.

"Sorry, you say what?" Seyi said in annoyance, I just stepped on the tail of a cobra.

"You all are worse than Lucifer, people like you should not be allowed to live among humans" I said in disgust.

Doris face lit up with anger, she stepped closer to me and attempted to slap me but her hand got stopped from behind, I looked up to see who it was that stopped her and he was..... No I can't recognise him.

"TOLU" All the girls said at once, okay he has to be one of them.

"Why did you butt in, I could take care of myself" I told the handsome Stranger in front of me. He just smirked while Doris and her minions were staring at him like they have seen a god. He moved his attention from mine to Doris and then back to me.

"I feel like I'm going to choke, breathing the same air with the devil, we better get going" he said pulling me by my wrist, dragging me along with him. Who the hell is this guy!

Once we were away from Doris, I forcefully removed my hand from his grasp

"Who are you?" I asked but all he did was stare at me like I just said the most confusing thing in the world.

"WHO ARE YOU" I asked again.

"TOLU ADEBAYO..... Don't you know me?" He asked, is he someone I'm supposed to know? I shake my head no and he seemed more confused.

"I'm the son of Kunle Adebayo, the second richest man in Africa" My mouth slightly opened, I almost gasped but I did not.

"I never knew, thanks for earlier by the way but I could stand up for myself anytime." I said and turned to leave.

"Your name?" He called out from behind me.

"Alissia" I yelled and left.

Let me introduce myself, My names are Alissia Jayson and I school here in Francis Private University on scholarship and trust me I am always out of place. This school belongs to the rich and when poor people like us are being seen they try to walk on us like they just did with Peter.

Peter is the most bullied student in our uni and trust me if were to be in the Asian part of the world he would have committed suicide long ago.

I went straight to my room which I share with Bimpe, I met her going through something on her phone so I went to my bed without saying anything to her, opening my laptop I decided to search Tolu Adebayo.

"What is this I hear about you" Bimpe asked when she became aware of my presence. I was a bit confused, what she heard about me? I wonder what rumour is going round this time.

"You had a clash with Doris and her minions, then got saved by Tolu of all people, are you in your right mind at all?" She yelled at me but why is she yelling at me? I did not do anything wrong.

"So you believe standing up for a fellow student is me being out of my mind?" I asked in response.

"Yes Alissia yes" she already calmed down, praise God. "They can drop your scholarship, remember whose dad own this Uni" she said and all I could do was nod. She has a point there, unlike most of them I'm poor, I don't have connections and worse of all I am a scholarship student.

Tolu POV

All the drive to my house from school I was thinking about how a lady could be that bold, looking at her she doesn't seem wealthy enough to school in our Uni, I keep wondering what is her story.

"Stop" I yelled at my driver and he halted immediately, I came down from the car and walked to what caught my attention, Alissia.

I knew she was not well of but not that worse to be eating bread with nothing but water, she sat on a bench out here talking to someone I don't know. I walked up to her.

"Hey" I said, she and her 'friend' looked up to see me, on her face I saw something I couldn't explain, surprise or anger I don't know.

"You? What do you want?" She asked

"Few minutes" I replied and without waiting for her response I pulled her to my car, she was saying all sort of things though, like this is a kidnap, she will sue me and all sort of other things concerned with her human right.

I told my driver to take us to the nearest KFC, I could have taken her somewhere like Dominoes or so but I wanted to get her real food.

"Why are to taking me there?" She asked confused.

"To get you food, food is health and health is wealth" I told her but she did not seem satisfied with my response, any lady will kill to be in her position and she is acting like she is annoyed.

"Why get me food? Is there something you want?" She asked, okay no free things in the world I know.

"What I want in return is for you to tell me about you, I'm dying to know"

"What if I don't?" She asked

"I will feed you anyways, look we're here" I said rubbing my palms together "Food" I said.

Alissia is something else, she said chicken and chips was not food and refused to tell me anything about her but I know very soon she will.
