Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

 The next day was, actually not so bad, even without all those awesome, great, breathe taking privileges I had, my life was still, Okay.

 I walked into school in slow motion, everyone still paid attention to me, but they wasn't as surprised as they were the first I came, because they had quickly gotten used to the Golden Boy being around them.

 "Hey beautiful", I complimented Camilla as I passed by her locker, wearing my bad on only one arm.

 "You know my name Jon", Camilla smiled back and banged the door of her locker.

 I wore a brown camouflage Versace, the top was a long sleeve and so were the pants.

 "You know I can handle loneliness prince charming, like I handled you and your goons the other day", Camilla teased because I was walking with her.

 "I just enjoy it", I said, and then Billie and McCall joined us in walking, and after them came Mary.

 "Wow guys, you have no idea what day it is" Mary chattered excitedly.

 "IT'S HONK AND HOT PICKING DAY", Camilla, McCall and Billie chorused tediously.

 "What's 'Honk and Hot picking day?" I asked puzzled.

 "Mary, fill him in", Camilla grind.

 "Drum roll please. Once upon a year ago, this school was like a boring, old school, outdated version of high school. Until the best thing happened, they were this set of people that made this school. Cool, they dropped the cool in this school. In their first day in this school, people called them names like; Angels, Pretty Beings, BH's and so on but they were later knows as; G Cool", Mary said feeling glorious just by saying their name.

 "That name is soo, uncool", I suggested.

 "No, no, no, everything they do is Cool and so is their name, because they made it, it's not like the name was just made by a novelist within 10 seconds of thinking", Billie said, then they all busted into laughter.

 "And when it's time to choose class presidents, even if they are not in the class, they would be picked; because of they are Honky and Hot", McCall said.

 "Well, who were this so called; G COOL" I asked.

 "People say their names will live for generations" McCall in a rather spooky tone.

 "There's Caleb Gardener the HONK, Robert Julian the one people say is HOT, Barber Luis the smooth NERD. And then the leader, the one with all the gifts; Sodiq Salami, the leader of G Cool" Camilla said.

 "What, Sodiq Salami!!" I yelled in shock.

 Okay guys you might be wondering, why the hell am did I just scream like a girl, one thing you need to know is the fact that, I and Salami go way back….

 You know I said my mum and Dad became immigrants, well, the Sodiq family was more of an illegal immigrants than we were.

 My parents sold, what am I say, begged for customers to buy stuffs from them, but at the other side of the road, the Sodiq family had a market, how did they get all the things they sold? Well funny you asked, there's nothing two tiny brats that was raised to steal couldn't do, they would go to other people's market, and rob it dry.

 They would also steal what their customers would buy from them. Meanwhile Vanessa would sit around all day doing nothing, you know the candy I said Vanessa shoved in her face hole, the Sodiq family were the owner of those candy, it was all part of those to brats; Alim and Aliamin's plan, all the candy they secretly gave Vanessa gave lots of toothaches, and yeah, it was soo bad, Vanessa would cry all day and chaseaway all the customers that are supposed to buy stuffs from Mum and Dad, and that would force the customers to buy things from the Sodiqfamily. 

 The Sodiq family gave my parents a hard time. When my mum's date with destiny was close, Mrs. Sodiq somehow knew so she became friend with my mum, my innocent.

 ​The day of destiny for my family came and it couldn't have happened any better, my mum went to fetch some water and took a short route, to her surprise she found an abandoned workshop filled with real copper, and so she was filled with joy, my mum had skills for mending, and if she would mend the copper with all the instruments left in the abandoned shop, she could sell them, so she ran home jumping and lipping for joy, unfortunately for my mother, her friend Mrs. Sodiqheard her and traced her steps back to the workshop, Mrs. Sodiq didn't really have an eye for creativity so she saw all the copper as garbage, and if they was anything Mrs. Sodiq had learnt from many years of living in the deep trenches, is that they was always a good thing buried in each garbage, so Mrs. Sodiqsearched and searched until she found the treasure, it was tiny, it was shiny, it was buried and safely hidden, it was a DIAMOND.

 So while my parents waited for someone to actually see the worth in the copper they were selling, the Sodiq family moved out of the trenches and expanded their industry till it was massive, after that they went back to their home, Southey Arabia and prospered.

 Yep, that's the story, you remember, my Dad called me a boy who made the front page of Forbes magazine once, that was because Salami always got the front page of Forbes magazine, so now you see why I am so surprised, it's because I dislike the dude, who am I kidding, I H**e the dude.

 "What Sodiq Salami!!" I shouted in surprise.

 "Yep, Sodiq Salami, he was the person that dropped the cool in this school" Mary smiled.

 "Just the sound of his name drives me crazy", I and Camilla chorused furiously.

 "That is imposturous, Okay he did cool things right, so all I just have to do, is be even Cool-er if that is even a word", I said.

 "No offence Jonathan, but is that even possible. Sure you are cool but Salami, he is top notch, he is like 'What's up cool' and you are like 'Hey guys lets dabe" Billie tried to mimic my voice.

 "All I just need to do is come up with super cool stuffs to do, to make this school as cool as chill".

 "Yeah", McCall and Mary said.

 "And since I'm soo rich I will pay you guys to come up with cool stuffs for me, so Good luck" I smiled and gave all my friends a thumbs up before the bell rang and we all dismissed.

 When walking to my class I heard strange noises coming from a nearby class, I was curious to know what was causing the noise so I slowly moved towards the class, and entered it, only to find, Ricky Ward, standing close to three men that were unconscious, the men were SWAT, I knew because they were on SWAT bullet proof uniforms.

 "They are, unconscious, they will be fine", Ricky smiled, "I'm missing something", Ricky looked into the air.

 "3, 2, 1", Ricky closed his ears expecting a scream, but when he didn't hear any he opened his ears.

 "You didn't scream, if was to be other kids or teenagers, or women they would scream their lungs out" Ricky said amazed.

 "Well, I'm not like other kids, and I'm definitely not a woman, wait a minute", I said after noticing he was putting on a smelly and sweaty janitor jumpsuit.

 "You are one of my Dad's workers, but that doesn't make sense, why will my Dad's agents fight against themselves?" I asked myself.

 "Look kid, I am not exactly a spy or anything, I'm just putting on this act so I would be given the chance to talk to you".

 "Jonathan!!" McCall shouted for my attention and I rushed outside to stop him from coming into the class.

 "Wait, hold on" I said as I tried to cover the class room door with my body.

 "What?" McCall asked.

 "What's wrong with your face?" I asked rudely.

 "You are acting weird Jonathan", McCall said feeling disgusted by my reply.

 "Okay, sorry McCall why were you calling me?" I asked feeling way over my head.

 "I know you get paid if you were to give this to someone else but please I will pay you later, I promise", McCall begged me.

 "What McCall?" I asked wanting a clear answer.

 "I need your advice, there is this girl and... well I need your advice" McCall pleased with one of his eye closed.

 "When did I become a relationship counselor?" I tried to remember while scratching my jaw.

 "Since the day you said 'I would call it; Fame And Love', when I got hold of your phone made the page sir", McCall told me.

 "Yeah, that's why I didn't see any picture of me and Camilla hugging in my phone, because instead of doing what I asked you to, you made a page with my phone", I said in a way that made McCall feel like he did something wrong.

 "Please your advice, she has a golden blond hair, and she is only a grade lower than me", McCall said and rested on the wall.

 "Just gotta be the thing that works, classic me. Okay, one thing's first, women are like mangoes, sweet juicy mangoes, when they are rip they fall into people hands, this is the twenty first century, ain't no one wants to act like them monkey and climb trees for mangoes, so you just gottaact like you don't care when you see them, but when you taste them, oh goodness, you will never want to let go. Where was I, yeah, so do this, be cool and confident, no girl like a guy for who he truly is, but for who they are aspiring to be, just act like you are cool and you don't care, when she sees that swag, she will come for it" I said feeling high and wise.

 "Wow, thanks Jonathan you're the best" McCall said.

 "I know"

 "See you later alligator", McCall greeted me good bye and immediately he was off, I ran back into the class and shut the door with my heart pounding.

 "Wow, you soo un-cool", Ricky slowly said as he saw me panting the way I was.

 "Sup", I stood up right and said and nodded my head.

 "Now this is the Golden Boy I know" Ricky smiled.

 "Dude, I am no longer a Golden Boy, haven't you heard I'm now in a relationship, anyways what do you want to ask me about, it's not like you want to ask me a question that a fourteen years old boy just asked.", I teased as a rhetorical question, but then Ricky went silent.

 "You have just got, to be kidding me", I rolled my eyes across the room.

 "I was being casted by a famous director; O.O. Daniel in a movie, and I saw this woman, Lily is an English lady, talented, kind and she speaks French, but who am I?" Ricky felt sad.

 "But then your new page 'Fame And Love' notification popped up on my phone, and it turned out you were here in Brooklyn, where I was acting, so I said to myself, 'Jonathan is the Boy' am sorry Man so what advice do you have for me?" Ricky asked me embracing himself for my advice.
