Episode 26

TEN YRARS AGO
I have worked hard all my life to give myself a
wonderful future, all my days in the university I have try to stay peaceful with others, I helped as many people I come across, even if I knew it won’t Change what I did but doing good might make my nightmare
go away.

Yes ever since I did what I did to lmada I have been having sleepless night,I could dream of my death yes my own death,it was always the same,I talked to my pastor about it even if I didn’t tell him my secret, not that I never wanted to but I just want to keep my past
behind me,I did all I could until it finally stopped,I was so happy when it did not knowing it could come to past.

I had everything within some few years of hard work,just one remaining thing was what brought me to the state I am now,I couldn’t imagine that one little mistake of a man would destroy a man’s wealth. I am
in great pain of course I am who wouldn’t be,who ever hear my sin will hate me,I have carried that guilt all my life.that was the reason I nevered engage in any relationship but with mimi what I felt was different so different and I wish I have nevered felt it.

INTO THE PRESENT
I see fleshes of images and whisperings, I couldn’t pick where I was,my whole body was heavy, my breathing was heavy that I could hear the sound of my breath, my eyes was wide open but it wasn’t clear,now I hear shouting but couldn’t hear what the
shouting was all about,my head was shaking it feel Iike was falling from an unknown planet, I could feel the warm touch on my hands,now another on my eyes,what was going on I didn’t know,then black out.
I open my eyes again this time I was seeing clearly, it was a small room with a cupboard on the right and window on the left,there were two chairs close to my
bed,the colour of the chair was the same with the window and door,I try to calculate where I was but couldn’t, I was awake but my mind was till far,a lady in white walked in carrying a tray,she smiled at me,now I know where I was,her uniform said it all,I tryed to speak but couldn’t find the words to say,she
told be to rest that the doctor was on his way not long a man with a longer coat walked in, he remove something that was placed in my mouth and nose,immediately I found my voice that was when I knew I was placed in an oxygen, “please where am I” I managed to say. “You are in the hospital you were
involved in an accident it is by the grace of God that you are till alive”he said smiling.

Accident, I till didn’t get what he was saying,I asked him how and where,it was after his description that I started getting my memory back,so I am till alive,indeed God didn’t want my soul for now I thought to myself, “please I need to go to the office I
have am important meeting to get to” I said try to get up but was push back on the bed by the doctor, “there will be no need for that the meeting could have been handle by now” the doctor words made no sense to
me “what do you mean doctor”,I asked him because I really need an answer, “you have been in coma for six month now”, WHAT
 me coma for six months, is
this doctor playing trick on me or what,I till didn’t believe him,I tried moving my legs but I wasn’t feeling it,this is unusual “doctor I can’t feel my legs” I said
looking straight to him eyes, “am sorry,but you had problem with your spinal cord,it was affected, you can’t be able to walk but there is a 50/50 percent chances you might walk again”, the doctor words came as a shock I couldn’t believed my ear,me paralleled, am I dreaming or what, I didn’t know what
to say,I just lay down looking at the ceiling.
Many thoughts came on my mind, is this real,I won’t be able to walk again, my life,my work,God what have I done to deserved this punishment, just one mistake just one, what is now left,I am no longer a complete man, I didn’t know when I broke down in
tear..
