Mary My Student

Episode 23

I smiled at Mary and said ” so Mary you finally pulled this off as you promised.” She looked at me with eyes full of hate and replied ” I hate you, you defiled me, you tool away my pride, you are such scoundrel, you are wicked, what ever made me to trust male teachers again? I trusted you, when you invited me to your house I didn’t know you had something dirty in your mind, I hate you with a passion.” She said with all the venom she could muster.

The policeman cleared his throat to get my attention.

” Mr Wilson, do you know this young woman?” He pointed to the Mary.
” Yes” I answered, ” I know her, she is one of my students, her name is Mary Jasper.”

” Did you invite her to your house as she claimed?”

” No I didn’t, i never invite students to my apartment, any business I have with students stays in the classroom or the school compound and never beyond that.”
He turned to Mary ” Repeat your story young lady.

Mary mother cleaned Mary’s eye which had began pouring fresh round of tears.
She sniffed and began. ” Officer this man here is my English language teacher, I went to him with a problem I was having in my English textbook which I needed some help. But instead of him focusing on showing me what I wanted to know, he was busy looking at my breast and telling me my breast was big and nice, I told him not to say that but that he should show me what I wanted to know. Instead he began asking me if I have a boyfriend, if we were sexually active. I didn’t answer any of this, I told him to show me what I want and he said he would only show me only show when I come to his apartment, I told him I can’t, that students were not allowed in teacher’s houses, but he said it was there or nowhere else. I trusted him, I didn’t know he was a scoundrel, a rapist, so yesterday I went to his apartment so that he can let me know what has been bothering me,
When I got there he invited me inside, I have brought my book along so that he can teach me what I wanted. Instead of that he began touching me intimately, I told him to stop but he didn’t, I suggested that we should go outside instead.

He disagreed and continued touching my breast, I threatened to shout if he didn’t stop touching and he stopped and got up. I didn’t know where he was going, I thought he has stopped what he was trying to do, I didn’t he was going to lock the door so that I would not be able to escape.”

She paused at this point and cried more and her mother shook her to comfort her ” it’s okay Mary stop crying, the criminal has been caught, he would be dealt with. Nne sorry.” I almost chuckled at this point but I kept my cool, I didn’t know that Mary was such a good actress.

Mary sniffed and blew her nose into the handkerchief her mother offered her before continuing with her story, ” he came back and started touching me more forcefully than before and I tried to shout for help and he covered my mouth and dragged me to his bedroom and threw me on his bed, I tried to get up but he forced me down. He tried to remove my shirt but I did not allow him, I tried to fight him off but he was stronger than me.”
