Defile me

"Amadioha, Amadioha," a group of five senior students said, waving at a Junior.
He is Chris. He walked up to them, carrying his school bag, an old sack bag, in his arms. "I've warned you guys about calling me that. I might be Eze nmuo's ward, but that doesn't call for answering Amadioha. Please, I have a name, and it's Chris."

"Biko, hara o. Please, sorry o. But, what I still don't get, is why the Eze nmuo's ward go about with a Christian name. Hmmm, nonetheless, Ikeji is almost here, so we'll like to know who the gods choose for sacrifice." one of them said.
Hearing this, Maria fidgeted, from her seat on the hallway.
"I don't know," Chris quickly said, lying, "Excuse me, if you don't mind,"
Chris joined Maria.
"It's quite unlike you, I mean, sitting alone."
Maria kept still, as if he wasn't talking to her.
"Aren't your friends at school. Well if they are not, I'm here. Tell me anything, I'm a good listener," Chris said. Like that, he spoke for minutes without any reply from Maria. He brought out a dough nut from his bag, cut it into two, gave her a piece, and stuffed his, into his mouth. "Eat, it's delicious,"
"We've shared each others meal, for years, so why poison me now?" Maria asked.
"Pardon?"
"Don't pretend," she threw the dough nut away.
"Why in god's name, will I want you dead?" he asked.
"That's where the problem lies, why in god's name will your father want me dead?" she asked.
"I'm not his son, I'm just his ward"
"But he calls you son," she said, "Son and ward aside, please for the sake of our little friendship, do me this favour,"
"Okay,"
"Please, defile me,"
"Amadioha forbid I defile his sacrifice,"
"Eh? So that's all you can say? Okay, I'll take my death in good faith." she stood up, and cried down the aisle, probably to her classroom.
When students passing by gave him a questioning look, he turned his gaze away, looking here and there.
"Defile her, kwa? I must consult an adult, this is too much," he stood up, tried taking a step, but on noticing the dough nut, still lying on the ground, he picked it and directed it into his mouth, "This dough nut have feelings too,"
