Mother had prepared Sandwiches and honey tea. Everyone finished eating in no time & Shade shifts the chair backwards and went for her bag. Mother had packaged indomie & egg in Oyin's Lunchbox as she gets set for school. Shade took Oyin and both left for School.
Mother was preparing to go out when Tobi told her about the release of Post-Jamb form.
Mrs Owolabi: Have you told your Father?
Tobi: No.
Mrs Owolabi:Okay, This is another chance for you to push further in life.
Tobi: Mom, I promise you than there will be no more Jamb or Post-Jamb again, I shall make it this year.
Mrs Owolabi: You better know what you are doing this time.

Mother later left for Shop and Tobi is the only one at home. Tobi decided to put a call through to his father and let him know about the Post-Jamb issue. Tobi scored 244 in his jamb and his first choice course is Pharmacy. He had tried Medicine & Surgery in his previous years but he failed to gain admission because the cut off was higher than his post-jamb score.

TO BE CONTINUED...

It was the first day in the month of August. The sound of dishes clanging in the kitchen woke me up. *Yawns*. Then I heard Mother's voice from behind "Get up!...Your sister is busy washing the dishes & you are still here sleeping". Tobi got up quickly & said 'Good Morning ma' as she steps out of his room.
He knew he had woken up late again so he rushed to the bathroom and had his teeth brushed.
His morning duty is to make sure water is available for everyone in the house. Soon he left to fetch water at Baba Ijebu's house; a stone throw from their compound. Shade had finished her chores and is getting ready for school while Oyin is being dressed up by Mrs Owolabi. Tobi was coming with the last fetch on top of his head and almost slipped but he managed to splash water on the floor. Coming out of the room with Oyin. Mother said loudly 'better get a rag and clean it up before another person gets to fall down.
Later, Breakfast was served in the dinning table as everyone was eager to eat.

Over the past years I've come to realise my passion for literature in general. although i'm science inclined. I'm taking up this story to challenge my ability.
Dear critics and readers,
I'l need your comments & encouragements for the continuity of this book.
