Sins Of My Past

Episode 13

I had to come up with a lie to tell my
parents, i came up with something which I
know they will buy,it has been two day now
Since I was discharge from the hospital
but I was till on medication, my friends
has been of great help to me,i wasn’t allowed to go or do any thing at home all i did was to sleep, wake up,have my bath and eat,which i was starting to enjoy,but the only boring part is the fact that i no longer go online because my laptop screen was broken due to the way i was hit with it the only thing left for me now was my phone and it was slow for browser, my parents has promise to fix the laptop for me and i believe they will.
I was laying on my bed one afternoon trying
to catch some sleep when I heard a knock on
my door i told the person to come in,my mother opened the door,she didn’t go to shop today because of a reason best known to her,i greeted her which she replied with a smile, she asked about my health,i told her I was fine,she sat on my bed looking at me,i already knows why she came but just pretended not to have a clue,

“uyiekpen, you haven’t told i and your father what really happened that faithful day,that’s why I came to meet you privately, your father is not here now just you and i ,so tell me what really happened here that day and i need answers now ” she asked me,i could feel the seriousness in her voice, “well mum it was a mistake on my own part ,i wasn’t feeling too well that day so
I decided to take a rest,when i woke up i was
having a headache so I stood up to get myself
some drugs but as I stood up i felt dizzy then
I lost my balance maybe that was how I hit my
head on the wooden part on the bed.” I told her and watch her reaction, she looked at me for sometime,i know she wasn’t yet convince “then how come your laptop was broken and also who left the bottle of Malta in the sitting room, uyi i know you aren’t use to leaving things that you use any how,you always throw things in the dirt pit,so what do you have to say about that.”she said. Seriously i wasn’t planning for that question, my mum is right, you can say i am a neat and tidy guy,i keep things accordingly and try not to leave things where they are not meant to be left.”i was the one that drank it i must have forgotten it when I stood up to go to my room,you know i told you I wasn’t feeling too well,then as for my laptop maybe my hand could have touched it when I was
trying to find somewhere to balance myself, am really sorry mum i promise it won’t happen again,”.

That was just a act i need to play,apologising
for no reason always glades my mother’s heart that i know about her,there was a smile on my mother face and i knew i just won, “it alright but please do be careful next time okey,you might not be that lucky ” she said, i promise her and she left my room,as soon as she left the event of that day flash through my mind again and i felt more angry, i so much wanted to take revenge on her but I till need to stay away from her for now.

Days and weeks passed and it was time to
resume school, i woke up very early in the
morning as usual, i did my morning routine
and went off to school,i prayed inside my mind
that God should please give me the strength to
control the anger in feel inside because I know
it won’t be easy for me….
