Back to the casualties, more than a hundred soldier died that day and many wounded most of them in very critical conditions. Among the wounded that day was my friend Balogun, the bullet caught me on his jungulars. Although he was in coma, and a lame man like me could not differentiate if z dead or breathing. Anyway, the medical team checked on him and gave us a little hope that there is a little breath left in him and they did there best in stabilizing him (I guess they call that first aid). I on the other hand prayed to God to please send his erratic soul so a year old boy won't be half orphaned and 2 year old bride won't be widowed. Anyway, after been stabilized, he and the other critically wounded ones were transferred to a better MRS for adequate health care. Things went like that and for the prisoners we caught we shipped them to the HQ under a heavy guard of artillery Soldiers.

Things went smooth for like a month and after a month, I received a letter from Balogun. He told me he was very fine and he has been sent on 3 weeks break for rest. For once, I wished I was shot too maybe I could have the sme fate of going home to spend good time with my families and atleast know a little of what the outside world looks like. Anyway, as the case my be my consolation was assuming I suffered same fate, maybe mine would have led to death or been physical deformed for live.
I sent back a letter to him where I asked him about his son and the name that was bestowed to him on his 8th day on earth I also inscribe in the letter that he should try and visit my mum and tell her am fending good that am just where I always wanna be.

I felt relieved and for once had a feeling of human emotions I asked myself the question is there where I really wanna be? Was dz what I really wannabe like and z dz the kinda life I really wish to leave even as a family man? Wow the answer was just a script I read as a cadet.

JOIN THE MILITARY AND BE ALL YOU
CAN BE. AND IF WE DO NOT COMEBACK, TELL THEM WE HAVE GONE
TO SACRIFICE OUR TODAY,
FOR THERE TOMORROW.

And apart dz just what I love am doing it for my family to leave in peace and for my dear country people to live without fear of external or internal aggression. Dz our live dz what we do.

After ruminating over that, I felt relieved because I got my answer. Anyway, things went fine and I Received an order for a meeting from my superior. Although, I didn't know or neither can I guess what the meeting is all about but what thing I know from the order is its smfin that warrant immediate action.


I'm so scared rn. my boyfriend is a cadet, and we've been together for a long time now. I'm actually crying as I read this because I'm very scared I might lose him to war n all n he's shown me so much love. I've heard him say sacrificing my today for ur tomoro too.

Continuation






After the trial that day i tried interacting with my men and I realised their is discord between them, most of them is of the opinion I should have safe their head off the gallows by exonerating them in my speech and telling the actual truth of how Larry took the first blood against my order. Bun WO Sali was on my side he his of the opinion this is the army not the police force and in this job we are all together. Lt Shakur on the other note was indifferent, all he wanted Was just a judgement because he was tired and disappointed why our CO will take the case that far owing to the fact he knew the gravity of the allegations levelled against us. But whatever we care or think does not matter, this is the army job and we have a chain of command in which orders are taking and adhere to strictly from superiors which we had gone against. I called most of my men together and talked them about the power in unity, I spoke to them from the holy books and told them God will see us thru dz and most of them nod with a smile and agreed but in all this, I could see the cow in Georges eye. He was so unhappy. So I decided to approach him to share his trouble and pain. And to my greatest surprise h e was so emotionally destabilized and he was going crazy. All he could do was cry. I was embarrassed I tried calming him down but the more I say something the more he got more emotional so I decided to allow him.

My mp coursemate came again and I asked him for informations and what he thought. There he told me the case went viral and higher authorities are taking over the case and he assured me their his hope. Anyway he also told me its best I tell how everything went down because it might go a long way in exonerating us all and I asked the fate of larry if am to follow his words which he said he might be the only victim. Sacrificial lamb I cried out to him nd the mp told me probably. I told him if so be the case let us all die together. We r a team and every member has a part and role. Sure he did made a booboo by acting on impulse buh dz not enough to justify leaving him to bear the cross alone. Unknow to me, Larry was earsdropping to my interactions with the Mp so later that night he came over and told me I should speak the truth and make him responsible for his flaws. I patted him in the shoulder and told him he had no fault. Although u took the first shot, it was in self defense and as far as the book his concerned you haven broken any law of engagement in firearms. And I haven't giving the command not to before u took the shot. I tried convincing him not to feel guilty about a thing but to know he did his best under pressure and if am in his shoes I won't have done better.

R
He was glad about the chat and Larry was kinda lightened up a bit. Nd he went along interacting with others. My only problem now is George. I devised a means ti talk to him nd try making him strong so that night I woke him and told him stories of how I do count the stats when I lost my dad coz my mum told me he his a star up there watching over us. From our cell block we went to the window and George seem to Falk for my pranks. He was just 18+ to me his still a boy and most of his mates still sleeps with their parents but he already k ows what responsibility means. Anyway I asked George if he found his Dad and I showed him mine and after minutes of searching he told me about a star which has been staring at him since he has been standing and I found a close star to that one and showed him they seem like twin star and probably his dad and mum are watching over us. He laughed and I asked if he believes in the supernatural. From there, I compelled him to having faith and he told me his nt afraid to die since he have seen the worst with his little days in borno. He told me his dear his whatf life holds for his junior ones because he doesn't want a life like this for them. I told him nothing will happen to him and I promised him I will do my best in case the case will go the other way to make sure his bloods gave a good life. Even myself making promise didn't know my fate but I had to make him feel good. After the chat I leveled his spirit and the morning of the other day we all prayed togeda in the religion in respect to our religion. The mp came in the morning and told me final verdict will be passed on us week time.
