MY MIRABEL MY SACRIFICIAL LAMB

 SEASON 1

Episode 4

My alarm went of, i woke up feeling cool, i

prayed to God, did some push-ups, brushed

my teeth, bath, prepared myself for school.

I checked my phone, saw like 4 messages

and 3 missed. The callers was my mum and

my uncle… I was about to leave it for later

but, Oh! My Uncle!! I swiftly checked my

inbox

1 from mtn, 2 from 4900,

1 from firstbank yes!! i screamed out

as i saw what was credited in my account,

what do u expect from an engineer uncle, i

wont tell u guys the amount *Tongues

out* Lol.

☆☆★☆☆★

I walked in, few people in the class ‘coz i

came early (serious student dat kin tin). I

went through my notes ‘coz i don’t want to

forget what i what taught, a lecturer may

decide to give test anytime, failing exams

not me by His Grace. One by one, two by

three people arrives seated gisting, waiting

for the lecturer.

Then class suddenly calmed, i raised my

head to see the lecturer but it wasn’t him.

You guessed right, its her, Mirabel. All

eyes was on her as she gracefully walked

in to the class. What an arrogant fellow in

my mind. Shortly, the Accounting lecturer

walked in and immediately ordered for the

entrance door to be closed.

He wrote a new topic on the board saying

we’d discuss about it today.

He started asking questions about about

what we discussed on our previous lecture.

Lecturer: On our previous meeting, we

discussed Cost, the types, and also

Overhead Apportionment. Let’s refresh our

memory a little. Class what is Cost and its

types? Now close your notes and just put

up your hand.

Promise stood up and answered it

immediately.

Lecturer: Good. What is Overheard

Apportionment?

*Silence

Lecturer: Didn’t we discussed it?

Class: We did

Lecturer: Then what’s happening?

*Silence

Lecturer: I would give you your test /20

-5marks this moment

*Murmuring

Lecturer: Shut up!! I hate dull class

That kind of statement always burst my

brain or maybe most students. I was about

to stand up before i heard an answering

voice, it was Mirabel. (This will be good,

now i’m ready)

Mirabel: Overhead Apportionment is the

procedure whereby indirect cost are split

fairly between cost centres.

Lecturer: The first stage of Overhead

Apportionment? (referring to Mirabel).

Mirabel: *Silent

Lecturer: Anybody else?

I stood up to answer for the first time.

Chai! big boy feeling nervous

Me: Sir, Overhead Apportionment involves

the sharing out of common cost in an

equitable way or proportion between the

production and service department

according to benefits they received. And

the first stage of Overhead Apportionment

is to identify all overhead cost as

Production department, Administrative,

Selling and Distribution Overhead.

Lecturer: Very good! What’s ur name

Me: Victor Sir

Lecturer: 5marks for You, give me your

admission number.

I gave him, which he wrote down.

I could see how eyes were facing my

direction, it made me feel uncomfortable, i

just controlled myself till the end of the

lecture.

Girl 1: Nice try dude, u saved us

Girl 2: Nna na u try pass

Girl 3: *smiles*

Well Well Well… i think i just earn myself a

spot in the department.

I called my uncle to tell him i saw his

missed call and message then thanked him,

i also called my mum, we talked *********.

Promise: Mr. Man

Me: Young lady

Promise: I’m a lady jhoor

Me: Says who?

Promise: My physique

Me: Hhmmm igbo girl(I guess she wants

me to check her out, right? Yea)

Promise: What?

Me: Nothing abeg, i’m really hungry

Promise: Lets go out na

Me: After you

Promise: Hhmmm

We got to an eatery, fed the warms in our

stomach then walked back to class not

after sighting that girl (Mirabel). Another

lecturer came in to perform his duty. During

his lectures, he asked questions which

answering became a competition between

Mirabel and I with contributions from

Promise and others. The competition in the

class impressed the lecturers alot, they

acknowledged our department as an

Intelligent department.

We the competitors Mirabel and I are yet to

discover our limits. I’m the best in every

course subject but maths, Hhmmm maths…

just good in it with the help of Promise

who was better. My limit was maths, i need

to know her own limit.

What do you think guys?
