** Going back to the Past**
She was born on a hot day the first of September. She was the fifth girl of the Ndoki family of Imo state.Okay,let's not be dramatic; She wasn't born in her hometown ,they had given birth to her in DSC town Warri in Delta State.
A rough one it was.Stealing was the order of the day. Well Nigeria wasn't the ideal country but Delta State was always known To have the craziest set of people.
Time flew by, she did grown up with her Dad mostly out of country for the first 15 years of her life but she was never really the momma's child.That doesn't happen when you have enough siblings,the ones that are older than u with 8 years and above.
Moving to PortHarcourt wasn't hard,She was just a small child..
Time flew quickly.
Who could believe she was now 10 years old entering into the boarding school she had always dreamt of...
Rolling her box of clothes with the always compulsory equipments as far she was concerned wasn't needed .
"Good afternoon ma",praying under her breath the woman haven't heard her because it wasnt funnny greeting twice though she was told that she talked through her nose.
"Good afternoon my dear,welcome to Fggc abuloma (Federal Government Girls' college),don't worry you will enjoy yourself".Miss Joy said with a smile on her face.
"Like as if",She muttered to herself.Thank God they didn't hear her.But those people were fake ,who were they decieving that a Boarding school was an enjoyment place and to make matters worse an only girls school. She did already heard all the stories no need for all these lies.Seniors were the major problems anyone could have not even the teachers to be honest.
Thankfully her mum worked here as a teacher ,so she left it to her to reply the woman because her mind was on her home she just leftNo more tv,Phone,home food and so on.What was there to enjoy.
"Where are your things?"Miss Joy asked looking at her.
God she hated this clothe,the shape especially.She was supposed to be wearing the allamanda (yellow) daywear but she was told she had to sew the lavender (purple) one because that was the dormitory she was going to stay.So here she was wearing the A-cut daywear thanks to her mum who had sewn it .
"It's here",Evelyn said. Having been student here so she quickly knew what to do.
Leading her by the hand,She was quickly dragged towards the second gate.
The school was large tho,even tho she had been here before God knows she couldn't even recall it well.
It had a big gutter,She wasn't sure she could cross it without that plank that was there. The school was steepy rolling the box was difficult. One look at her box and one will think she had carried the whole world inside it.Thanks to that grumpy Matron who had just ruffled her box things just to fufill all righteousness because the woman knew very well she couldn't carry contraband(Bumpshort,white sandals, sardine,bread).Their list of things that were banned was ridiculous.
Stopping at a pink coloured bungalow like building .
"Welcome to abuloma,this is your dormitory",Evelyn said. Looking up at the building speechless ,She didn't kno whether to cry /smile.
