The tears behind my smile - Episode 3

…Continued from last week

Saturday dawned bright and early. I was in such a good mood that I chose to wear my superman shirt that afternoon. The day had finally come, I was going to smoke weed! I had seen Uche smoke it but I was never allowed to, today he was allowing me to get to ‘cloud nine’ all by myself!

Uche had called me earlier to give me directions, he said I should tell any bike driver in front of UNILAG gate that I was going to ‘westend‘. I did as I was told but my luck wasn’t so good that afternoon because the driver of my okada was an ‘aboki’, he only had a vague idea of where we were going to so he had to stop at intervals to ask for directions.

The tears behind my smile-episode 2

I’ve  been inquisitive since I was a little girl, I still am so I guess that’s what made me want to do things that were wrong by all moral standards.

I got admission into University of Lagos to study physiotherapy through their diploma programme. As anyone would expect, my class was full of different species of people. There were the ‘rich kids’ who had the greater percentage as diploma fees were pretty high; there were the ‘greenstick ones’ these ones were fresh out of secondary school; there were the ‘staylites’ who were doing diploma 
 To get  update of Nigerian Campus gists,music,fashion,movies and business opportunities 

They are not gone, they are still very much around!!!!!

You’re wondering what I’m talking about right?

You’re wondering who’s still around?

It’s them oh! Those who steal people’s breasts and genitals from them, I’m not talking about ritual killers oh! I’m talking about those that walk past people, hit them and walk away with their ‘important goods’ but  this time they’ve upgraded.

I was at e-centre recently, I had just gotten there and I was waiting for the elevator when I heard some guy shouting ( it sounded more like screaming though).

the tears behind my smile - EPISODE 1

“When last did you see your period?” Dr.Tosin asked me

“Last month”, I replied. I am lying but I’m not about to admit it for all the things in China.

“The information I have here tells me that January was the last time you saw your period”

“No! I still saw my period last month but it was scanty compared to my normal flow but it didn’t bother me until last month when I didn’t see it at all”. I’m a medical student so I know all the things I can say to defend my point.
