It was Sunday morning, that was the day i was meant to go back to school.
Yes! I'm from a polygamous family,my dad live in Anambra state with my step mom at the village and that's where i school.
I always visit Ebonyi State on vacation because I hate the village during vacation.
It wasn't my decision schooling in the village though, it's a decision between my dad who thinks I'm meant to be with him while my junior sister stays with my mom because things wasn't working out fine for me and mom which is what i call a
(family issues)
I accepted the idea of going to my dad, though i knew staying with my step mom is not gonna be funny.
The decision works out well but definitely i was missing mom and junior sister.
*Make i Yan una small village life Tori before we return to the main Tori*
(O'Boy life in the village no be small thing o)
I got used to village life and i started doing things i never thought of doing in my life, Every morning I'll have to walk up to the well in my dad's compound, I'll fetch and fill up every drums of water and after that I'll sweep the whole compound before I'll think of getting myself prepared for school.. I was in SS1 during this moment of my life in the village.
Village wey be say electricity light no dey even plan to blink.
The only way i get to play is when there's no cassava to grind, then i can go join my friends at the field to play football apart from that I missed every part of my life in the city.
I got used to the life and knew i was one day gonna graduate.

We think say na all this headache wey be say Panadol go wipe comot.
But Hell No! It transformed from headache to malaria, from malaria to typhoid.. day to day it was getting worst to the extent that she was rushed to the hospital, hospital couldn't cure her she was getting slim all day, I wondered what type of sickness would make someone go slim in a twinkle of an eye.
Little did we know her day have been numbered..
Pastors came to pray, prophet came,she was introduced to many churches but it never stopped. Until the day i was meant to go back to bed..
I went straight to where mom was sleeping, I touched her. She looked at me.
Me : Mom.. please let me stay and take care of you!?
Mom : No Son! I'm alright, moreover you need to finish up your school, it's your last semester and your junior sister is here to take care of me, just go I'll be okay.

Your uncle will be here to take you back to school shortly. Go get dressed.
Me : Okay mom... *I walked away*
My mom brother later came with his car to take me back to school because he was going to Anambra,so instead of spending cash on buses ,I decided to join him. I dropped my belongings inside my the car boot..
My mom waved at me as i waved back to her and my sister, little did i know it was the last goodbye.
On my way to Anambra i told my uncle to please drop me at Enugu because i needed to see my senior brother in Enugu,he rejected but i pleaded until he accepted.
