  • CHAPTER1
  • I had slept off like a new born baby and didn’t know when it
  • was morning, i was still sleeping when my mum returned
  • from morning mass and was shocked to see that i’m yet
  • to sweep the compound. My mother who was already
  • angry rushed into my room shouting my name, “Amaka!,
  • Amaka! Why is she still sleeping by this time of the
  • morning ,she thought to herself” immediately i heard my
  • name i woke up and ran outside to meet my mum. “mama
  • good morning, i’m sorry i woke up late” my mum didn’t
  • allow me finish before she embraced me and started
  • checking my body temperature to know if i’m sick, “i’m not
  • sick mama,i only over slept,” i said, my mother did the
  • sign of the cross and told me to carry on with my morning
  • chores which i started doing immediately with so much
  • joy.
  • ***** I’m the only child of my mother, my father died when
  • i was still a baby, my mother took it upon herself to train
  • me, my uncles took all we had except our house and a
  • small portion of land where we farm, i’m still grateful to
  • them. My mother refused to marry again after my father’s
  • death, i always stayed with her to make her happy. My
  • maternal aunty wanted to take me to Lagos where i’ll
  • continue my schooling, but my mum refused saying she
  • needs me around her. My mother is very beautiful and
  • hardworking, she worked so hard to make sure i lacked
  • nothing. I grew up to be very close to my mother. My
  • village is not far from the city, everybody wanted their
  • children to school in the city. Immediately after my
  • primary school in the village community school, my mother
  • enrolled me into secondary school in the city. I grew into a
  • very pretty girl. I am chocolate in complexion, i have a
  • smiling oval face with a long black hair, in j. S. S, 3,men
  • has started disturbing my mother for my hand in marriage,
  • my mother swore over her dead body will she do that, i
  • studied really hard to make my mother proud. Thank God
  • i’m blessed with intelligence too. I never allowed all these
  • attributes enter my head. I respect my elders, i turn down
  • my admirers politely. Every mother in my village wanted
  • me as a daughter in law, but i had my dreams, the dream
  • of furthering my education to the University.
  • I wake up early everyday to be able to catch the early
  • morning bus going go the city, this was how i struggled
  • until i finished my secondary education.i have just finished
  • writing my WAEC exams and has been helping my mother
  • out in the farm. ****
  • Immediately i finished my morning chores, i warmed our
  • left over soup and called my mother to eat her breakfast, i
  • served our food in the sitting room, and sat beside my
  • mother to enjoy my akpu and bitterleaf soup, my mother
  • has taught me to avoid talking while eating, we ate our
  • food in silence until the sound of her phone broke the
  • silence, i rushed to where her phone is and checked the
  • caller, it was aunty Amanda, i gave the phone to my
  • mother who had already washed her hands,”give me the
  • phone “i gave her the phone and continued with my food, i
  • watched my mother talk with so much joy, i heard aunty
  • Amanda telling her that her family will all return for the
  • xmas celebration, i went to refill my drinking cup when i
  • heard my mother scream, i ran back into the sitting room
  • to meet my mother laughing, i heaved a sign of relief and
  • went back, immediately my mother ended the call i
  • couldn’t wait to ask her why she was screaming i called
  • her calmly “mama,” she looked up and eyed me, she knew
  • i wanted to hear the gist but wanted to keep me in
  • suspense, i allowed her finish eating before i went to meet
  • her, we were sitting outside our balcony picking our beans
  • for lunch, “mama, how’s aunty Amanda and her family
  • doing?” i asked trying to bring in the screaming part. My
  • mother looked at me”amibo, i know you wont rest until you
  • hear everything , my dear, Amanda is very lucky, her family
  • is blessed, she said they will all return for the xmas
  • celebration. “she stopped and continued with what she was
  • doing” mama i heard those ones already, why did you
  • scream?
