"Goggle it"

First, I apologize for not having posted anything in a while. I haven't had much to say and I don't like putting up unblogworthy posts.

So, let's get to bizness. I recently solved a controversy between a boy and a girl. Both in JSS2. I'm guessing they should be in the range of 12 to15 years old max! But in this case, the boy has repeated JSS2 a few times, so he's a little older than that.
Anyways I walked in on the controversy, which my colleagues had been deliberating on.

Here it goes. The girl came to report that the boy slapped her across the face. The Corpers called the boy in. Asked why he did it and he said she had been calling him names and all that especially when she was with her friends. And eventually, on that day, he had enough, lost control and slapped her. Then we asked why she was calling him names and we heard both sides of the story.

Her side: one day, he asked her if she was a virgin and she told him to ask google (she actually pronounced it goggle. Like swimming goggles....lol). After that day, he always asked her to come over his house and she always declined to avoid getting in trouble at home. Then one day, her mom sent her on an errand and she bumped into him and they went back to his house(they stood to talk at the gate she says). Then he started groping her boobies and all that stuff. She then gets him off her, called him names and left. Since then, she would call him names when she saw him at school.

His side: he asked her one day if she was a virgin and she told him to ask google (he said it wrong also). Him and her older brother are friends and word on the street is that every boy takes homegirl for a spin and even her brother testified to this. So, as a big brother figure, he wanted to talk to her and plead with her to change her ways, which was why he asked her to come to his house. As a matter of fact, that was all he discussed with her at his gate. However, his advice rubbed her in the wrong places and she started calling him names ever since.

They argued back and forth, called each other a liar and even cursed off each other. The girl said that she would never wanna be involved with him (although she said she was a virgin) because he has been in JSS2 forever. He maintained that she's too small and un-sexy for him and he would never wanna touch her. He also told her that he would f**k her up and beat her up.

Although I found this whole thing funny because it wasn't as civilized as I've narrated it and half of the discussion was in Yoruba and there's something funny about issues like these being told in Yoruba. We eventually told him not to lay hands on her for whatever reason, told her not to ever call him names again and if they didn't wanna be friends, they should just act as though the other didn't exist.
That was the best judgement we could offer.

By the way, one of the smartest students in my class must have told her mom about me because her mother came by to meet and greet me. I left class to say hello then I went back in. She came in, I met her halfway and she squeezed money into my palm and said "I know u didn't ask, but please, just for your drink." I declined but didn't wanna make a scene in front of the other students so I said thank you. I thought about giving it back to her daughter but my colleagues said she was just appreciating me and I should keep the N1000. I personally don't know how I feel about it or how to react. She had me in a situation where I couldn't continue to decline. I think she did it on purpose tho. Anyways. I spent the money on my way home so I guess that's gone. Lol.
