FIFTEEN YEARS LATER
It was just like life went the way I planed,everything was
working well for me,I successfully finished my education
and I was now working as the manager in one of the best
company in Abuja,standing close to my office window,I
feel the cold wind on my cheek the sky looks cloudy I
think its going to rain,just then all the event of my life for
the past fifteen years came flashing on my mind.
Fifteen years ago
I can’t say staying with my uncle was fun but it was
good,my uncle was a very discipline man unlike my
father which makes me wonder if they were from the
same parents, my uncle was married with two kids two
girls who I know he loveds so much,he was a lawyer
while his wife was a banker,his two girls was beautiful,
Lillian and Juliet, they are twins,I did most of the chore
at home because Lillian and Juliet were till little they
were both seven years old I wonder why they haven’t
have another child what they were waiting for I don’t
know.
My aunt was a nice lady she treated me like a little
brother also my uncle, do what he wants and likes then
you will have no problem with him,his rules and
regulations was very simple and it was not difficult for
me to keep because I have already change my ways.
I try as much as I can to stay away from evil the day I
left Benin I left my badways there,school was fun yes it
was always fun for me but this time it was a different
kind of fun,I stayed away from bad friend,consecrate on
my studies at the end of ss3 I came out in my wace with
frying colours,my parents was proud of me,even I was
proud of myself, one year after my wace I wrote my jamb
and it also went well in no time I was in the university of
Abuja studying business.
All this while I haven’t contacted my friends I have
choose to put them aside away from my life they were
the ones that put me in the mess I am at the first place
but I always pray for them and wish they also find the
right path just like I did,I won’t say I was now a born
again but all I know was I have made peace with God,I
pray always that there was no single day that passes
that I won’t thank God for my life and I don’t miss Church
for anything in this world.
My university days was great,I tryed my best to stay
away from anything that will bring distraction to me and I
thank God I did well,I came out as a first class holder,I
did my PhD and my master degree and the results was
great,in not time I was employed with the help of my
uncle’s wife, I worked hard putting everything I had into
my work that in no time I was promoted to the manager,I
now have my own house,cars and my bank account is
doing well and addition to that I have my own personal
company where I import and export goods from all over
the countries, so you see now life has been really good to
me.but you know they say everyman needs a woman to
call his own,relationship wasn’t really my thing but I
needed a wife so I can have a family.
I was brought back to reality when I was called by my
secentray Anna,she was a beautiful young lady but I
dare not look her side because she is happily married
with one kid,she came informing me of the present of a
visitor,that was when I remembered I had an
appointment with a bank representative,the bank wants
me to bank with them not that I want to but I just
thought of allowing them to waste their time trying
convincing me.i thanked her for remaining me and told
her to send the person in,I sat back on my sir to wait,just
few moment after Anna left the door open again,I was
sub with what I saw.......
