infant: EPISODE 4
I woke up very late the next day. I quickly took my bath and got prepared for school. I left home immediately without having breakfast. I was supposed to have lecture by 8:am but it was already 8:15am. I got to the building the lecture was holding and peeped through the window. The lecture was already going on and the lecturer could be seen at the podium impacting knowledge on the students with enthusiasm. Every student focused there attention on the lecturer standing close to the door, and that was exactly the same place I was supposed to walk in through. I was sure everyone would focus there attention on me when I walk in, because there's no how I would walk into that class without being noticed. I stood at the window for close to 10minutes trying to come up with an idea of how I would walk into the class without being noticed. I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I turned to see my coursemate standing beside me. I was relieved it was a guy.
"are you not going in?" he asked
"I was about going in" I answered "are you just coming?" I asked
"yes" he answered
"let's go in before we miss the important part of the lecture." he said
"okay" I responded
He walked ahead while I followed behind him. I tried as much as possible to hide behind him as we walked into the class. I never removed my gaze from the floor until I sat down at the back seat. I took a deep breath and silently thanked the guy who showed up when i needed him. I'm not sure I would have been able to walk into the class alone. I would have stayed outside until the end of the lecture.
The lecturer continued with the lecture. After few minutes of listening, I was able to understand what was being taught. I was quite good in maths, and the course that was being taught was actually 'introduction to mathematics for economist'. Did I mentioned earlier that I'm an economics student.
when the class was over, the lecturer handed a brown envelope to our course rep, which I believed contained our test script we did in the previous class. To make matter worse for me, our course rep happened to be a lady. I had never approached her to get any information from her. Even when I needed an important information which I believed only her could provide, I still didn't approach her. Her beauty alone is intimidating. she distributed the script back to the students. just as the scripts went round, I could hear murmur from every corner of the class which means the scores were very bad. She had already shared all the scripts but I still didn't get mine. I wanted to bring to her notice that I had not received my script but didn't know how to approach her. I only sat on my seat staring at everyone faces as they stared at their script with a frown.
My course rep started walking towards me, immediately she was done distributing the script. I tried not to feel nervous, because she might not actually be coming to meet me. she got to me and sat next to me. I was very nervous but tried not to show it.
"Christian how did you do it?" she asked immediately.
"do what" I asked confused.
she brought out a script and showed to me.
"while everyone was scoring less than 10, you scored 23. How did you do it" she asked
I looked at the script in her hand and realized it was actually my script and I scored 23 just like she said. but I still didn't know why she did not give me my script when she was sharing it and had to bring it to me personally.
"you are really brilliant" she continued when I didn't respond
"Anyway, I just want to tell you that you just officially made yourself my private tutor. you will be tutoring me starting from next week."
My eyes widened in shock when she said that. Me that cannot even talk to a lady for a minute will now sit down for close to an hour to tutor her. she better rethink was she just said. what kind of difficult position did she want to put me in. I better look for a way to decline.
"so how will it be comfortable for you? will I be coming to your place for the tutorial, or you will be coming to my place?" she asked.
None of the options seem comfortable for me, I wanted to say that but dare not say it.
"anyhow you want it" I answered against my decision.
"Okay, we will be using both my place and yours for the tutorial. That would be fairer right?" she asked
"yes" I answered
Just when I was still dealing with the lady beside me, Joy came and joined us. she sat at my other side, making it two ladies sitting beside me. I haven't been myself sitting beside my course rep, and Joy had also joined us, making my blood pressure to rise.
"hi Sharon" Joy greeted our course rep
"hi Joy" Sharon replied
"Christian how is your body now?" Joy asked me
"fine" I answered briefly
She saw my script with Sharon and collected it. she stared at it
"23!" she exclaimed "Christian you scored 23"
All eyes in class turned to our direction immediately they heard my score. I felt embarrassed at the number of eyes staring at me.

infant: EPISODE 1
S ometimes I just wonder why I was created this way. why I can't seem to be comfortable when I'm in the midst of people, especially ladies. I had been this way ever since I was a kid. I'm already on my early twenties but my issue is not up getting better. It had even worsened. I can't believe that at this stage of my life, I still don't know how to approach ladies. I had come in contact with a number of nice ladies that I love and would love to spend the rest of my life with, but due to my shy nature, I could not approach them and had lost them all. I still can't believe that I'm still a virgin at this stage of my life. Not that I'm a saint or something. I had always wanted to take this virginity of a thing off me, but don't know how to go about it. I had never dated any lady all my life. I dare not tell my friends that I'm still a virgin, because they would all laugh at me. I always brag about how I made a lady beg me to get her laid whenever I'm with them, but in reality, no such thing had happened.
I always believed I could cope with my shy and introverted nature, but not until I gained admission into the university. it was when I gained admission into the university that I realized there is place for people like me in the university. it's either I blend in and associate with people or be forever isolated.
it's been three weeks since I gained admission into the university. We had already completed the registration process and lectures had also started. The way I always see students in my department discussing and associating with one another, made me wondered if they had known one another already, before they gained admission. I wished I could be like them and interact more with my coursemate, but my introverted nature wouldn't allow me. I always try my best not to be noticed in class. I dare not raise my hand to answer any question asked by a lecturer, even though I knew the answer.
One day in class, just immediately we settled down for lectures, our introduction to statistics lecturer, Dr. Mike walked into the class to introduce his course. After 5minutes of speaking, he asked a question which no one could answer. He was very disappointed and decided not to speak further until someone answer his question. I knew the answer to Dr. Mike question but dare not stand up to answer his question. Just imagining the number of eyes that would be boring holes on my body when I stand to answer the question could make my mind go blank. Dr. Mike stared at us from the podium while we stared back at him, with no one making attempt to answer his question. After the long silence in the class, he decided to speak.
"so out of over a hundred students in this class, no one can answer the question I asked" he said
Everyone in class remained silent.
"this class can't continue until someone answer my question. How am I suppose to teach you if you don't know the basic of this course" he said
The class still remained silent.
He stared silently at us. After a while if silence, an idea crossed his mind.
"I know what to do" he said walking closer to us.
"I will start pointing you to answer the question and once you fail to give me the right answer, you will leave this class and never attend any of my classes for the rest of this semester." he said in serious tone.
A faint murmur could be heard in the class
"we you all keep shut" he shouted in angry tone.
The look on his face showed that he was very serious with what he said.
I wished someone could just answer his question and take me out of the tensed situation i was in. The class had suddenly became too hot for me to stay. I prayed silently that God should divert the lecturer's attention away from anything that would make him notice me in class. Not that I didn't know the answer, but I just couldn't face the whole class.
I could see the lecturer staring at everyone faces, looking for who to point. he stared at my direction and a shiver went down my spine. I suddenly started sweating profusely.
"Hey, you over there" he said pointing at my direction.
Even though he was pointing at my direction, I was so sure he was not pointing directly to me. because there is no how he could have pin-point me out of over a hundred students in class. so I looked back to confirm who he was pointing at. the person he was pointing at must be behind me.
"why are you looking back? I'm referring to you" he said referring to me
"is it me sir?" I asked to be sure he was referring to me.
"no, it's me" he mimicked me "come on stand up and answer my question" he barked.
I suddenly became weak when I realized he was actually referring to me. how was I suppose to stand and answer question in a class of over hundred students.
Just as I slowly stood up, I could see over a hundred eyes boring holes on my body. I tried not to turn my head, because my mind could go blank if my eyes meet with any lady in class. I cursed the devil silently who had succeeded in putting me in such situation.
"will you answer my question or get out of this class" Dr. Mike barked when I didn't say anything after a while of standing
"erm.........erm.........." I stammered
