Andrew didn't look like he was involved in an accident apart from the bandage that was replaced daily with clean ones.
He acted like he wasn't really affected by it at all.
He told us how he and his friends sneaked out of school during closing hours to get 'suya' from the 'mallam' that just started selling far from the school road.
After they got what they wanted, his friends went home and he had to return back to school to wait for the driver.
Trying to cross the road, a car hit him and that was all, he passed out.
He later woke up in the hospital and there was this man who was beside him, he asked if he knew our mom's or dad's number and he was able to give him our mom's number.
The man called and that was how my mom got informed about the accident.
My mom was angry as expected. andrew was strongly warned against leaving school after closing hours, he
"Yake me to your place " I said."Are you sure?"Going to his place would be perfect, the day was still early.My mom wouldn't suspect anything, I told her I was going to visit an old time make up artiste of mine and besides she had a guest coming to see her this afternoon, I was so sure she'd be back home early this afternoon to attend to her friend."Yes, I'm sure" I answered.He nodded and started the car.I watched as he drove along and I started wondering; I was actually doing something before he asked me questions... Yeah, I was crying.I let out a loud sigh as I continue my crying.Timi panicked as he threw a worried look at me"Benita""Leave me ""You look ugly when you cry "Best thing to say to a crying
Ernest come, stop acting like you're ten" ten years old me say to my elder brother's friend younger brother.Thirteen year old Daniel's friend."but I'm ten." he protested."You look like you're eleven...you're in your first juniors right, I thought it was only eleven years old that were meant to be in juniors...whatever, just come." I stubbornly drag him to our choir mistress' house.We had just closed from church and while a meeting was going on where my parents were both involved in.I decided to hang out with Ernest at the choir mistress house since it was the closest and she always welcomed little children to stop by at her house.Uncle wilfred her son was in there, he'll let us in, he was a very nice uncle."Good afternoon uncle wilfred " Ernest and I greeted in unison, the 20 year old guy was seated in the living ro
I contemplated on running to report to my brother Daniel who had just gotten suspended in school for beating a junior student who was calling me a 'big head'.My brother would fight for me and he wouldn't report me to mom but would Uncle wilfred give me the chance to escape, I was still thinking when a slap landed on my face."My friend will you do what I asked you to do." he yelled.I wanted to rub my stinging face but the fear of this man hitting me again made me do as he asked.With tears in my eyes, I clumsily stroke his 'thing' and he pressed my hand firmly on him and closed his eyes slowly.I wanted to throw up.I kept on doing that for long and I wondered if my parents would be looking for me.When he finally opened his eyes in satisfaction, he asked me to raise my gown. Again, I didn't want to, I just wanted run home and wash away unc
I wasn't sick.My mom mentioned that it was the God sent son Uncle wilfred that carried me to the church saying he had given me my manual and asked me to return to church and maybe I had decided to play with my mates running around the church premises and there was where I fainted and he quickly had to rush me to the church ... Lies.It kept on happening every Sunday, I'll touch him.Sometimes, he'll take me to the church toilet when he knew there'll be no meeting and no way to have his chance with me.He'll make me satisfy him.It went to the level of him trying to put his fingers inside me but it was just too painful and I would scream and he wouldn't be able to go far, he'd hit me, beat me but I just wouldn't let him put his fingers inside of me because he had long nails and they tore my skin.My breasts were always sore from continuous sucking and biting.
"No no pumpkin, you're not.. You're not filthy, dirty or used. You're beautiful.. " he says."I am? " wanting to cry againHe nodded and surprised me by bringing my head close to his chest. I let him."I know it was so hard, all what you went through at such age but I want you to know one thing, it's okay to cry." he said as he helped straighten my hair.I cried my eyes out, I cried out all the pains, Jude left me, Derrick hurt me, wilfred did worse.Crying made me feel like I had released all my burdens.Timi, didn't say anything but just gently pat my back.After what seemed like hours, he said softly."You'll have to move on""this wilfred guy is probably enjoying life with his family while you're here crying your eyes out ""Forget about everything, you were young then, you were 10 then,
"Ohh, okay, I'll be waiting, I love you.""I love you babe " my brother mumbled ... If only I can tell her there was another girl here yesterday whom he told he loved.She smiled at him and gave me a small smile before going upstairs.My brother's eyes were fixed on Derrick who stood uneasy."Benita, come here " my brother ordered. I did as he said because I had no strength for trouble.He held my arm and moved towards the dinning then roughly shoved me to a corner where Derrick couldn't see us."Ouch""Sorry" he grumbled."can you stop acting this way. I'm not a baby "I begged.He had to stop, guys his age were dying for me but here he was being an annoying elder brother."Cora, you know I can beat 100 guys for you, I'll rather fight for you anytime than to fight for my girlfriends" he
"Um, I need prayers.""Are you not supposed to see the pastor instead? " he asked thoughtfully."Yes,... Yeah, can I call you later, there's a trailer blocking my car""But the phone's on speaker Beni..."I cut it before he could say more. I didn't want to feel guilty for going to a guy's house but a little fun wouldn't hurt, would it?Timi's gateman recognised me from the other day and he let me drive into the compound.I got down from the car, pulling my hand bag behind me.Walking in, I felt goosebumps all over as I remembered how Timi pulled me onto his laps."My secondary school student " he teased. He was sitting on the couch, a drink in his hand."hey" I replied shyly.Stop being shy!This is Timi, the mannerless goat!
"Yeah, he is."She smiled at my response then asked"How did you meet my Timi?"Yen! yen! yen! my Timi!I met your yen yen yen Timi on facebook, would you mind me telling you how we just kissed some days ago, would you like to hear how I grinded on him, I'll tell you now."Ohh, I can't really remember, we've been friends for long " I answered instead."How long have you known him? "I asked surprising myself."I've known my Timi for a very long time, more than two years" she revealed smiling."I love him so much and I really don't know why he hasn't popped the question yet.. And I know quite well I'm the only one in his life " she added.Sorry, what was that?He has Esther and Eunice too.I didn't know what to say to her. I was so sure she had no idea that I was just 18 and
