********Episode Ten********
When Kimberly got home she narrated all that
happen in school
to her mum and also how two boys wanted to
snatch their bags
until when John showed up and came to their
aid. She couldn’t hide the excitement in her. The
way he made feel, butterflies in her stomach,
she can’t stop thinking about.. He was the
beautiful thing she has ever seen.
Helen: ”This is why I never wanted you to trek to
and from school” *snapping her daughter from
her daydreaming. She was to busy worried she
didn’t even notice the excitement in her voice
non the way her face was red with love*
Kimberly: ”Mum what happened to today has
never happen before”
Helen: ”I know but there is always a first time
for everything”
Kimberly: ”Mum their mission was not even a
success in the first
place”
Helen: ”What if it was a success or it was rape
those boys wanted to
rape you girls”
Kimberly: ”Mum none of those happened”
Helen: ”When your dad comes back from work
today am going to talk to him”
Kimberly: ”Talk to him about what?”
Helen: ”To look for a driver that would be driving
you to and from
school”
Kimberly: ”Mum that’s not necessary”
Helen: It is my dear. I don’t want anything bad
to happen to you”
Kimberly: ”Am not a 5years old girl that cannot
take care of herself or something”
Helen: ”I see how you were able to take a very
good care of yourself when those boys wanted
to snatch your bags from you today”
Kimberly: ”Mum do you have to keep on
reminding me of what
happened today?”
Helen: ”Yes I will keep on reminding you if that’s
the only way I can talk some sense into that silly
brains of yours”
Kimberly: ”Mum I don’t have a silly brain”
Helen: ”Yes you do that’s why you don’t always
listen to what I tell
you”
Kimberly: ”Mum what happened today has never
happen before
and I am very sure it won’t happen again”
Helen: ”How sure are you that it won’t even
happen again?”
Kimberly: ”Am sure because from today (place
her hand on her chest) henceforth I promise to
be extra careful when am coming back from
school”
Helen: ”There will be no need for that dear”
Kimberly: ”Why mum?”
Helen: ”You won’t be trekking to school or back
from school
henceforth”
Kimberly: ”Mum please don’t do this to me,
moreover my school is
not that far from home”
Helen: ”Listen to me young lady my mind is
always made up”
Kimberly: ”Mum why are you always this
protective of me?”
Helen: ”You are all I got my dear”
Kimberly: ”That is not enough reason mum”
Helen: ”Young Lady since when did you start
talking back at me?”
Kimberly: ”Am not talking back at you, I only
want you to see
reasons with me”
Helen: ”Why am I the one to see reasons with
you?”
Kimberly: ”Because am the one who is in the
best position to
decide what is best for me”
Helen: ”My dear you are still a kid that’s why am
making some decisions for you”
Kimberly: ”Mum am eighteen so am not a kid
anymore”
Helen: ”Look at the way you are saying am
eighteen as if you are now a grow up.
”
Kimberly: ”Mum in two years coming I will be
twenty and that
means I will be able to make my own decisions ”
Helen: ”Well, until then my dear but now am still
in charge of making decisions concerning you
because you are my little angel”
Kimberly: ”I know mum but mum please just
grant me this one
wish please”
Helen: ”What wish is that?”
Kimberly: ”Allow me to trek to school and
coming back from
school”
Helen: ”Okay you win this time but next time am
sure you won’t get away with it”
Kimberly: ”Is that a yes mum?”
Helen: *smiling* ”Yes dear”
Kimberly: *hug her mum* ”Thanks mum you are
the best”
Helen: ”Am only the best when you succeeded in
getting what you want from me”
Kimberly: ”No mum you are always the best”
Helen: ”Ok my dear you are also the best”
Kimberly: ”And dad must not know about this”
Helen: ”Are you commanding me?” they both
burst into laughter…..
