Yeeeeh! Mogbe!!!! Cussing totoola in my mind.. "And we are asked to come to school tomorrow for our choreography practice" she added "Bring your result tomorrow and I must not askyou before you bring it to me" my dad told me. Said my goodnight and went straight to bed,thinking of how tomorrow is gon be.. swearing and cussing totoola!! silly amebor! The next day!!! "What is this?! You of all people Enh?! Tomi,is it because we allow you play with your friends! Thats why you'v been so lazy with your bookks Enh?!....." Femi cut in "she has been so unserious after you bought her a bicycle!" "Always riding her bicycle when is spose to read her books"..he concluded "Ohh ohh we have been giving you much freedom abi? Thats why you dont take your books serious again!!" My dad shouted He looked at my result again and hissed! "She intentionally tore her result so that you wont see it" .... I heard totoola tell my dad I was shocked!! Angry and felt like pouncing her! "Is that TRUE? Who knows if you lied about not being around when your results were shared yesterday Enh?" my father asked Trembling while still on my kneels,," no sir! I dint tear it,I was quenched in the rain yesterday while coming from mum's shop ,I forgot my result was in my pocket and so I dint bother taking cover,the water weakened it and it tore when I was trying to spread it lastnight". I dint bother answering the second question,it was glaring in my first answer ! After a while,it died down... ate and went to sleep. Every thing that happened that night died there,I gained my father's trust and my brother and I remained friends! But Totoola,I hated her since then. Totoola was the shepherd's daughter! She lived with us for two years. "When you see your group mates,how do you greet each other" the shepherd's question brought me back from My long thought "I dont know them" I told him He told my mother I was a witch again... "They wear white in their group " he said.. "If I were a witch,totoola is the first person I would have killed" I shouted at him Not that I meant it,but I was glad I said it. My mum slapped me and apologise to the man.. He told her to come back during the next vigil in order to get some things that would be used to save me from dieing at 12years old.. Well!! A week later,we heard the man was disgraced by a sister who claimed he impregnated her and advised her to go for an abortion. My mum was unable to do the claimed rescue stuff cause she was disappointed at him,and here I am..living well many years above 12. |

totoola and I were born the same year,she was just 3months older than i'm. Someone like that ought to be my very close friend but hell no! Totoola was far from being a friend even though she was my cousin. She was proud,wicked and above all she talks alot..I wouldnt deny,shes beautiful. God bless her mother! Totoola and I attended the same school and we were in the same class then. Even though we rarely fight,i so much dislike her!I know I couldnt fight with her cause she just dont worth it. Well, its not like she Suddenly looks annoying . There are numerous things she had done. Things that now sounds funny to me. We are almost of the same height with me just being about 2' taller than her. In my view,she is bossy and lousy! Sweating profusely,I was so restless and just dint know what to do. Should I runaway? Where will I go? Am quite a brilliant girl,my Father's jewel. I began to remember a lot of things,I remembered when my dad said I took my intelligence after him . He claimed nobody took his first/second position from him while in school. So, my father wont even tolerate a third position from me,not to say fourth!!! I was already crying,thinking of my dad. I dont know if hes gon beat me or not! Cant tell mum either,though shes quite easier than dad in cases like this. Just then,totoola came in.. she was quick in asking what my primary four first term result was. I told her I dont know!! Very unusual,it had always been me telling her even when she dint ask. "What did you carry" she asked again.. "Woo! Leave me alone,I dont know" I was about leaving when she said "Abayo carried second , he has collected it from you" I could sense happiness in her voice. I said ok and left. "Welcome , have you eaten ?" my mum asked... though,I haven't eaten before going to her shop. I just wasnt hungry. "Beeni ma,have drank garri" I told her She left me to start attending to her customers. Just then miss oloyede,the primary three class teacher passed by,seeing my mum she branched by to say hello. "Good afternoon ma,hows market" "Market dey o,afternoon. When are you giving the students their results" ..... "some pupils had been given theirs today,my class inclusive".. miss oloyede told her. "TomI Tomi!" Mum called.. No answer She called again . . "Tomi isn't here ma" the teacher announced.. "She was just here,I dont when she left..she dint even tell me she was leaving! Wich kain pikin b dis" I was at home again!! My clothes,hair was soaked. Mum's shop to my house was just about 20mins trek.. haven't covered much distance from shop when it started raining,dint take a cover and I was so quenched!.. I got home,change my clothes and slept off. "Shey tomi wont wake up now,abi she no go eat ni" my mum was talking to others.. "Femi,lo ji tomi kowa jeun(femi go n wake tomi,she shld com n eat" ....... I was eating when my dad asked about my result.. "We have not been given sir" Totoola shouted,"its a lie, we v collected our results" she went to where she kept hers and stretch it out to my dad.. meanwhile! Have been thinking of how to get out of the hell I had put myself. "Where is your result" dad asked me again.. "I dint know we have collected our result,I was not around" "You dint go to school ?" he asked surprisingly "I went but I was not there when the class teacher gave the others" "Where did you go? Enh!!!" " maybe it was when I went to buy something" It was very unusual of me to behave this way,i'm guess my dad believed me cause it was my first. "When will you collect your result now" he asked me "I dont know sir,maybe when we resume" ..... just as I thought have been freed,totoola shouted "its a lie,our teachers are coming to school tomorrow,we are doing our end of the year party next week" |

I told a very close friend somethings surrounding my birth...I used to believe,I was the only one but when i heard his tales especially being in his mums womb for 3years...  ?! I wouldn' t have believed but I happen to know a 2year old pregnant woman.At that time I remembered one prophet in my church telling my mum crazy stuffs about me.. "You need to buy 7candles,a white cloth,a duck because we'l be needing its blood to bathe her. Some fruits mostly coconuts and pineapples,all these would be burnt while the fruits will be given as alms" "You will have to make some thanksgivings at the church the next day alongside me" Like seriously! Is it because i'm a girl?! Have never seen where boys with the same birth experiences having to go through what I went through in the hands of some prophets! I would have been flogged with some broom sticks by a prophet over one spiritual realm I know nothing about. Thanks to dad,he never believed all these prophecies from a third party except the ones he receives himself,so he saved me from some public display of crazes in church. Have taken lotta this so called spiritual bathes,offered alms,drank annointing oil as recommended by different prophets at different times..but still,there is always another new prophet somewhere saying the same rubbish others have been saying. I began to wonder,are all these bathes,alms and other things have been doing not working or is it the prophets that are liars!.. yeah! Its the latter,I know for sure I dont belong to some evil society cause if I were,I would have used my powers against my brothers! Especially my first brother. "I will beat you this girl o,mommi no kuku dey house,afta I don deal wit you she go com Cari ur body go hospital....you dis . ..." I interrupted him,"na kill u go kil me today,agbaya oshii! " holding his shirt,cussing and shouting .. gboooo!!!!!!, Tunde landed a big blow on my forehead . "Yeeeeeh! U wil kil me today o,I v die"! I started throwing blows that cant even dent a fufu lol! The fight was getting serious,and I was getting tired but I was just too proud to surrender. "Yeeeh yeeh . .. eyi ooo!! U bit me, ahhh u v die today" tunde screamed. Raining more blows at me,I wasn't a good fighter so most of the blows landed on me. Mostly on my head. Thank for God for mama dare,who came to my rescue. Who knows what would have happened! "I wish I have powers that can make Tunde fall sick" "I wish i have powers that can make Tunde be hit by a car" "I wish I have powers that can make my mum will hate him" "I wish I have powers that can make Tunde steal and be arrested " All these thoughts run through my mind each time Tunde and I fight. So I wonder,if I were what these prophets say then definitely Tunde ought to be dead by now! If one say i'm an ogbanje,another would say i'm a maami water.. their allegations dint pass ogbanje-maama water cycle. Until one day,my mum and I went to a vigil(in a white garment church) ... we prayed and danced,listen to a short sermon,then resumed praying till morning. It was time to go home,I thought! But instead,my mum took me to see the shepherd (not for any spiritual thing but cause He was my aunt husband) just to say hello. Mr Shepherd has been seeing me for like 8years before,but he never accused me of any spiritual realm until that day(my first time in his church). We were entertained,then he prayed for us when mum said we were about to go.. from a low calm prayer session to a lousy one! Ahhh ahhh Wetin ?! Then he started speaking to my mum in yoruba but his tone was quite strange. Then,i figured out ..its the usual bathe,alms and the likes again!!! "What spiritual society do you belong to,what colour do you wear" He asked me... I couldn't say a thing other than "I dont understand you sir" He kept repeating the question! And I kept repeating what he dint wanna hear "I dont understand sir" It was more like, i was being forced to claim what i'm not. I knew where this man was driving at,or soil thought!... till I heard him tell my mum something that has been hiding my rude behavior. Have always been this gentle easy going respectful girl(tho,not with my brothers..then) I simply dont know why i'm facing all these. I later blamed my mum. I guess if she hadnt been telling these people about the circumstances surrounding my birth,they won't have the slightest clue. But,rather than them being honest, they decided to use a woman's ignorance against her daughter! "Your daughter is a witch,and she has an appointed time you chose to spend on earth(he mentioned 12). We have to buy and dosome things to chase her group mates away from her and keep her away from them,we need to do something fast" he told my mum As usual,she was trembling ! The man faced me and ask "tell us what we can get/buy to use as something to chase your mates away from you(more like the taboo)" I was angry . . so angry! I was a maami water, an ogbanje . now am a witch?! .I thought |

i'm grown now but still my mother's child  ,years before were cool,rough,interesting and worthwhile  .Each time I think about my early years(between 5-10) I just can' t help laughing at the stupidity(mine and others),funny behaviors and actions,the risks and mistakes..and some little regrets. Seriously,its an interesting story to write about. Hi peeps! My name is Somade Olaposi,a teenager,only girl and last child of a family of five! ... this is the story of my early years on earth. MY BIRTH.. My second brother, Femi , is more like my father's late twin brother,the skin colour,the height and if I may add The Behavior!.. so,i'd say Femi is just like my Dad. Though,both parents wanted just two kids,a male and female. But,on Femi's arrival they decided to give one last trial.. it was a success after about three years and so finally,the little girl my mum and dad ever wished for came to life. Those saying Femi was more like my Dad physically had no choice than to think again. I was my parents Angel,especially my Mum. All the cares,love and attentions were directed toward me,not that my brothers complained though or probably because they were just kids! I wouldnt say I was pampered but I won't deny,i was a little more favoured than my elder brothers. Each time I offend my Mum,rather than scolding me,she'd sit me down and narrate What she went through during my birth to me over and over again!. I was suppose to get bored with the repetition of story but I must say,I get new feelings each time I hear the story. My birth wasn't really the worse you would ever hear but amongst my brothers' , it was the worst! On a monday afternoon in june 199*, my Mum was rushed to the hospital by my dad ofcourse. The hospital was just about 20feet away from the house. She was attended To and taken to the labour room. well! unfortunately, i wasnt delivered by the Doctor(i grew up to love his last son) there cause After many hours of " Madam push, sorry Madam please push Harder!!" She was transferred to a general hospital to be operated on.. but God willing,she delivered me without CS at the general hospital. Finally,on tuesday morning I came to life..much in the form of a still born(I dint cry)!But the doctor confirmed theres a life in me,claimed he had seen my types alot. He gave me to the nurse,and after a big slap on the back. I let out a loud and long cry. I came with six fingers(something I got from my dad) ahhh! Well,its been cut off though! One thing I still fight my parents over is not taking my baby pictures! I was told,I was tiny and small!.. something i disagreed,with time  Gosh!!! I so much hate sitting beside a fat person in a bus especially a doozing one.  To be continued !!!!! |

first;you posted in the wrong section Second ; do mtn know the kinda phones their customers use? If no!! Then, megabytes or no megabytes have nothing to do with the kinda phone you use. My guess; it may be the package you subscribe to or the 100mb is not for every sim. |

his name is Physics ,tried all possible means to get his attention but to no avail..won't sleep at night,will think about him when I was sposed to eat. I envied other people(males and females) he gave his attention to,sometimes I had no choice than to think he was a gay coz mostly,the guys got his attention more.. and the girls? They kept trying but I tried harder. Mind you,another guy was heavily in love with me,his name is Biology. I hardly notice him but will always marvel at his outstanding abilities.. to cut story short,a very close friend,he's quite interesting.his name is Chemistry,whom have told several times we can't work well,took the wheel and drove me crazy.. I saw the elegant physics last year,mehn!! It was far from useless! And then the saying:you dont know the value of what you have till you lose it..broke up with chemistry awhile later,and gave in to Biology and it related subjs.. All in All,Physics was my sec crush but the saying:its not about how far,its how well. 5 Likes |

painting other people's religion bad in favour of your own is wrong.. But sometimes I wonder,how then do you convert a person if the person can't see any loopholes in his religion.for example ; You can't just convince me to leave my present hostel without you telling me some reasons I should look at.. What I believe is,however you wanna tell people about their religion dont make it look bad...just tell them the benefits of yours,dont talk about theirs..Jesus came to die for us all,talk about that Jesus alone.… whoever you were able to convert will see things on his/her own afterwards. Mind you,some of them know about the loopholes.they just don't wanna be convinced. I remember one sunday morning while I was going to church,some muslim brothers in my hostel condemned my religion,the practice and the pastor... some days later,this same guys came to me to tell me about their religion,I listened to them and thought;have read,heard,seen you guys comparative Lessons..you'v compared and contrasted my religion with yours alot,there is no more fun. I'd rather stay with mine,coz there are litte or no more reasons switch to yours. I call people like this hypocrites,both Christians and Muslims!! |

being the only girl and last child,most of my wrong doings were overlooked and the ones that weren't, were not wrong enough.. but I always remember this one, I fought with my brother(till now I still believe he was the one at fault) ,it was a real fight.. surely,he wounded me(nose,forehead and knee) I thought my dad/mum was gon over look it as usual and prolly blame my brother(coz He was @ fault and I was wounded) when my dad got back,I ran to him to explain what had happened earlier . .he only said sorry.. But when mum arrived,before saying fem,I got a slap(I do call him by his name whenever we fight)got another after narrating what happened I went on self hunger strike 4 a day..coz I felt I was wrongly judged . mum dint even look my side for that period na that my same brother bring me food and we got along again 1 Like |
