BLACK BOY

Only we ourselves can bear the consequences of our actions, whether good or bad, on purpose or an innocent mistake, done with good intentions or not.. we will surely reap what we sowed, whether we like it or not.

Our main case of study here is Diego Obaeze.. from being abused to watching someone close to him die, being hated for no valid reason and betrayed by a familiar face, alot of people are surely involved in this story. And one thing is certain, they also would reap what they sowed.

Relocating to a Rich part of Abuja, he got into an elite school. Diego made a vow to himself.. he was going to go through the system and graduate high school without any drama... oh the irony. That was what he wished for, but life had different plans for him.. with different people.

Though not fancying the other gender, he'll meet her, infact he'll meet a couple of 'hers' .. but what you might just assume as a thing of the moment might have been a well devised plan to a certain goal, even if it means puppeteering with the emotion and mind of others.

Devious politicians, drug pushing business men, beating up colleagues half to death, human trafficking for prostitution, hiring thugs to teach people a lesson.. these were just some of the day to day activities of their parents. Some may think their parents came across their wealth cleanly or it was rightfully passed down to them. The only thing passed down was the act of human wickedness, and getting what they wanted by all means possible, yes.. even in blood.

Along the line.. friend will be made, bonds will be shared, enemies will arise from our circles, and familiar faces may betray us.

Just as the plot thickens and we forge deeper into the abyss of myriads of emotions, there'll be unspoken questions hanging in the air.. 'is she really to be blamed?' , 'did he really have a choice?' , 'was that the only way out?' .. don't fret though, you'll surely get your answers.. or maybe you won't.
