The Preacher Son

Episode 31

‘You this boy, how many times would you come late’ uncle boko said.

Mr boko was a tall lanky teacher who was the teacher on duty for that week.

Am sure that if boko harm was around then mr boko would have been their oga at the top.
Since my first day in school i had been coming late and i always gave him different reasons ranging from;
‘sir am a new student to sir am not feeling fine and other vices i used to escape been flogged.

But mr Boko had recognized me and he was not letting me go scout free again, i had ran out of ideas.

‘Oya turn your back’ the last thing i hate in this world is to be flogged, i have always been afraid of cane, so when he started flogging me i was dancing ‘awilo’ then i saw Mercy who also came late.

In my bid to form lover boy, i told uncle Boko to flog me for Mercy. My back was hurting when i went to my class.

I had manage to hold the tears which were forming in my eyes, but when i got to class everyone was looking at me.

They must have seen when i was been flog and the all started telling me; ‘eya, sorry o’ the cane pain you.

That was it, my tear barrier i had been managing to hold broke down and i started shedding tears like a new born baby.
Judith took me and comforted me by petting my head and putting me on her bossoms which made me happy and i felt the current more from her bossoms.

We had not discuss anything about our library experience because i was too shy to discuss it.
The business studies teacher came in, my sunny, who was also our form master entered our class without any cane.

We were suprised, mr sunny always brought a cane or koboko to class and i remembered during his last lesson he told us that he would stop bringing cane, we taught he was joking but we believed him now or so we tot.

We started making noise because we saw no cane with him, he told us to stop making noise, but we refused to heed to his instructions.

He raised his shirt collar up and lo and behold there was koboko hanging on his neck.
Our ass and backs were anointed with fire that day, when he was through he told us that he wont bring the koboko again, a lie we never believed.

During break period, Mercy came to my class and i followed her to the market square where food is sold. She thank me for taking her cane that morning.

I asked for her class and she told me that she was in jss1, i remember that i jumped primary 5, so she bought things for me and we jisted, i left her and went to my sister class to see her.

When i got there, some naughty girls were all calling me my husband and they were dragging me to come sit on their laps. I was damn shy and i ran to my sister seat and jisted with her.

When i was going out, her classmate caught me and started forcing me to sit on her laps, i begged her to let me go but she refused and said i should kiss her first.

That statement got my blood boiling with shyness and a spirit that i dont understand to this day came over me. I looked at her and gave her a thundrous slap on her face.
It seem like the drugs given to me washed off and i realised my mistake.

The whole class was shock and they all looked at me in wonder. I was expecting the girl to run after me and beat me up or punish me, but she just sat down stunned holding her face and looking at me.

I did not allow anybody to tell me again, i flee for my life and went to my class, i was always looking back to see if she would come because my class has two doors.

I was planning to flee if she arrives but she never came and my mind started to rest again. So i continued my trouble making stuff and jisting with pals.

I totally forgot the girl i slap, ow that was my mistake.
