Mama Never Left
Standing at the entrance of the hall of Vine Memorial Secondary School, I was clueless of what next will become of my.
Mama with so much hope assured me to be patient that someone from her church had got us covered.
Few moments later there walked in an angel in human form.
He was tall, black and adultly radiant, he said to my mama, 'Kadie ya this sixty thousand, buy some books for am'
That was how I went through the process and admitted to JSS 1/3. The rest remain a history up till today.
Hurriedly, I took my bath, Mama urged me to wear my school uniform, as we were heading for an interview at the Methodist Girls High School, I was like mama "you sure say den go take me with aggregate 20. Yes bo! She confirmed, "me pastor say den go take you" as usual, off we went.
As I approached the school gate, I was super frightening, I needed help, I needed someone to carry me through the different streams. So Mama introduced me to a beautiful dark skin lady with a bright smile, who welcomed me and persuaded me to gracefully opt for the art streams program, due to my result and subject pursued.
By then, what did I even know, but I was guided by my Mama and the beautiful dark skin lady. The rest again remain history.
As usual Mama never left even in her absence. ☺
My leavers service was great with Friends around but I reluctantly refused to take a photo. I carried my grumpy self home, with so much anger, cause Mama wasn't present. While all my friends parents were around, even though I was sad at a point.
I struggled home, all by myself.
However, Mama sited me far up the hill and created a welcoming show for me.
As I approached closer she spread her wrappers all over the ground and started to dance. She created a whole scene, by carrying me on her back. She called out the neighbors to help her celebrate her daughter as she had completed her schooling. I had no option but to be cheerful.
Mama Never left ☺
This is one of my stories I have kept in my notepad for a long time.
