We said our farewells and then we walked to the assemble point where we were going to meet up and discuss how to take down the whites the whole trip was silent and l just kept looking at my sword
David. It's a really good looking sword
Me. Really now ( found myself giggling)
David . Yeah look at it it's beautiful l could kill to have such a sword
Me. Yeah it's pretty swell

Francis suddenly walked next to me

Francis. Nice sword
David. Said that
Francis. I would kill to have a sword like that
David. Already mentioned that
Francis . Wow really

I started laughing and l swear my eyes were now watery

Me. Wow guys really l appreciate your compliments but the sword is mine okey

I began picking up my pace and soon left them behind looking puzzled . I soon found myself walking next to Clarrisa who was lost in her thoughts
I snapped my fingers at her face and l guess startled her and she screamed and hugged me

Me. Clarrisa is everything okey
Clarrisa. I killed her l killed her

She sayed those words over and over ,kept shaking her head, hands trembly , palms sweaty and was gripping more tightly to the hug
Me. Clarrisa look at me

She let go of her hands around my neck a bit and faced me
Me . You are going to be alright okey(she just nodded) it was all a mistake and people make mistakes it's part of nature everyone does something wrong it's what makes us human and soon we learn from our mistakes not don't cry okey

I wiped the tears from her cheeks with my fingers and she kept nodding and sobbing

Me. Now let's go and win this war okey , we've been dreaming for this day to come and it's finally here finally we should be happy okey
Clarrisa. I don't deserve happiness okey l killed a not one but two people and l can still feel the blood running through my fingers what l did ....
Me. Was a mistake okey you made a mistake  Clare . Now let's catch up and please don't cry about it . Okey l love you and you made one mistake and you obviously regret what you did this is all in the past and l want you to promise me that you , l mean we  will never talk about this again wipe those tears and take a deep breath and promise me
Clarrisa . ( Wiping her tears taking deep breaths) l promise to forget about my past
Me.Thats my friend so fearless and never sad now smile and let's get going
Clarrisa. I love you
Me. I love you more

We began walking really fast . We eventually caught up with the group and started chatting and catching up . It felt Soo good to be talk to my friend again and too see he happy and have that bubbly personality she always has
We arrived at a place filled with hundreds of black youthful people . They all looked ready and were getting weapons ready
Me. Wow Soo many
Clarrisa. I have dreamt about such things happening in real life
Me. Me too
Clarrisa. I'm glad l am here with you by my side
Me. Me too
We had a little hug then we began walking around and meeting new people discussing about our dreams  after we win the war .

I was chatting with a few people when
" I hope you are happy about what you have done"
I knew who's voice that was before l could even turn back
Me. Grace
Grace . U have some nerve
I turned back and watched as she stood there with folded arms and murdery eyes
Me. Excuse me
Grace. You heard me right the first time  look l ain't enjoying you presence
Me. Why Soo
Grace. Coz you come to my home and start bossing us around acting like you run the place , but listen l ain't taking any advice from a servant girl

I can't lie , that really came out as a shock and it hurt me as soon much to know that that's what she thought of me but if there is one thing lve learnt over the past few days it's that don't let some simple words hurt you know yourself and your worth. Ive come too far  and l know myself now

Me. Are you done
Grace. Excuse me
Me. Stop being a little cowardly spoilt brat and fight for your country
Grace. Did you just...
Me. Yes l did because people like you need people like me to shut their mouths

She just kept quiet and walked away fast looking furious
I showed her who's boss
Clarrisa. Wow what happened
Me. Life

Suddenly everyone began to sit down and we were told to keep quiet
David came and stood on a large rock making it seem as if it was a stage
David. Soo ,we are all here for one thing and that if justice and freedom and that's wat we are going to fight for if it means risking our lives it's worth it. For years the whites have treated us like animals but  even animals get tired of being abused even animals have dreams, and even animals attack when they are tempered with I am David Survill and l say let us show them what we so called animals can do now who is with me!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone started cheering, screaming, clapping hands and whistling
Some where even chanting David's name
David. Now l say to you , you who is willing to risk everything for your loved ones take your weapon and get ready ready to attack!!!!!!!!! We attack midnight and we won't rest till we win this war now who is with me

Everyone started cheering, whistling and clapping hands some standing up  and running around

I hope we win this tomorrow📚📚📚📚
