MARRIED TO MR POPULAR : Episodes 1 – 10
(Rude and grumpy)
Episode 10
By: Faith Lucky.
Bethel’s Pov:
When I woke up the next morning, I couldn’t find mum at home as she had already left for work. Perfect!
I followed my normal morning routine – took my bath, ate and left for school.
I got to class and met Nicole there already. I wonder If I can ever beat her to it. She comes too early.
“Hello princess’ she teased as I sat next to her.
“Hi” I replied with an eye roll and she laughed.
“I’ve been waiting the entire day for you, B. So tell me, how was…”
“You wouldn’t believe what happened” I caught her off, knowing what she wanted to say.
Her eyes beamed immediately.
“Oh, my gee! Bethel, spill it out already” she said curiously and I smiled.
“Well, first of all, I caught him making out with a lady in the restroom” I said and she gasped and dilated her eyes.
“What???” She shrieked.
“Making out…you mean they were having s3x?”
“What else does making out mean?” I asked and she gasped again.
“Oh, my God, Bethel! Are you kidding me? And…hold on; did you say you caught them? Like…you really?”
“Gosh! Of course not. I only heard them moaning from the room.” I replied irritable and she sighed

“Better. You’re too young to see such view” she said and I glared at her and she laughed.
“But this is really incredible. Hold on, did he see you?” She asked.
“Yeah…when he was done with the lady. I had wee and Was washing my hands when he came up and stood behind me” I replied and she gasped and held my hand.
“Oh, my God! You saw him? He…He saw you?” She bumbled and I huffed and released my hand from hers.
‘Stop being so dramatic, Nicole. I mean, he asked why I was there because he had ordered the guards at the entrance not to let anyone in. Gosh! That guy’s so rude. I felt like smacking him in the face. You won’t believe what he told me. My bag had slipped from my hand and almost hit him and he asked if I was blind.” I said laothfully and she gasped.
“Oh, my gosh! He did?” She shrieked.
“Yes. And it was so annoying. Well, I told him I wasn’t blind”.
“What? Bethel, you did? You spoke back at him?”
“Of course. He’s lucky I even apologised in the first place. Seriously Nicole, he’s too rude and grumpy. I wonder how his friends cope with him.
“Mum had taken me later on to say hi to him when we were about leaving and you wouldn’t believe the way he snubbed me. He completely lacks manners. Even his mum had prodded him to give me a handshake, but he ignored her. He’s such a spoilt dumb-ass brat” I said angrily and Nicole started laughing.
“Oh, my God! Bethel, you’re so funny. You’re acting like the whole thing happened this morning. I can’t believe you’re talking about the world’s famous Ryan in such manner.
“Anyway, I’ve always heard of how rude he was. I just never knew It was to this extent. But tell me; how does he look? I mean, is he really as cute as he looks on TV and on stage?’ She asked and I rolled my eyes.
“Well, when it comes to good looks; he’s the top. I don’t think I’ve seen someone as cute as he is” I replied and she shrieked and covered her mouth with her palm.
“Oh, Bethel! You’re making me get goose bumps. I can’t imagine it”
“Yeah, he’s handsome and all that; but his looks is the exact opposite of his attitude. No wonder they say beauty lies in the heart”.
The ABC girls didn’t show up in school that day and it kind of puzzled me. Well, it was better that way.
We received the morning classes and during lunch time, Nicole and I ate together in the cafe and after a few more hours, the school finally came to a close.

“How’s Jackson?” Nicole suddenly asked as we walked out together.
I sighed and tucked my hair behind my ear.
“He’s fine” I said perfunctorily.
I need to get ready for my date with him.
“Is everything okay with you guys? I mean, you sound…”
“Im fine Nicole. I know you’re just trying to look for blames to put on hold’ I cut her off and she chuckled.
“Well, you’re wrong Bethel. I’m just being concerned. I don’t want my best friend to fall into the wrong hands” she said and I just rolled my eyes.
“Hold on; isn’t that your mum?” She asked and I stopped walking as I also caught a sight of her.
What? Mum? What the hell’s she doing here?
She was standing by her black jeep, looking around and finally, she saw me and started walking towards me.
What’s going on? What’s she doing here?
“Wow! I must admit Bethel; this mother of yours is really something else. She’s so pretty and hot” Nicole said but none of it interested me as just kept pondering over mum’s unheralded appearance in my school.
“Good evening ma’am” Nocole greeted with a little bow when she got to where we were.
“Good evening” mum replied and turned to me.
“How’re you Bethel?” She asked with a smile, getting me more confused.
“Uh…I’m…I’m fine. Good evening’ I stuttered helplessly.
“Come on; I came to pick you up” she said and held my hand and started walking with me to the car.
I turned and looked at Nicole and she just shrugged and waved at me.
“Hold on, mum; did you just say you came to pick me up from school?” I asked as we both sat next to each other in the jeep..
She chuckled. I can’t remember the last time she ever did something like that – coming to pick me up from school.
I mean – mum???
“I’ve got great news, Bethel; great news! And I just couldn’t wait for you to get home before spilling it out’ she said excitedly and I just watched in mere bewilderment
“Wh…What news?” I asked curiously and she laughed.
“Wait till we get home” she replied and scorched off.
So many thoughts kept dancing through my head as I thought about mum’s uncanny attitude. What news could she possibly have to tell me that’d make her come all the way to school to pick me up? I can’t believe she even laughed. I mean, I can’t remember the last time mum laughed with me.
She was so excited during the drive and it only increased my curiosity.
Finally; we got home and I felt so relived cause I couldn’t wait to hear the “great news’
We stepped down from the car and went into the sitting room together and I sat down and awaited for her to speak up.
“Bethel” she called ecstatically as she sat in front of me.
“I’m listening, mum”.
She paused and giggled.
“Do you remember few days ago when I had told you I was working on something important?” She asked and I tried to think.
Of course.
“Y…Yeah, I do” I replied and she continued.
“Well, guess what? It’s finally been accomplished. And guess what it is” she enthused and I scoffed.
“What is it; mum?’ I asked; not interested in guessing.
“Come on; just guess” she said but I kept mute and she laughed.

Oh, God! I can’t believe mum’s actually the one laughing
“Okay fine; I’ll tell you. Besides, I’m sure you won’t be able to guess it right” she paused and cleared her throat a bit.
“This Saturday” she said.
“You’ll be getting married to Ryan”.
