Chapter 16 : THE STORY CONTINUES..

I can see from her text message how disappointed she is for being tricked by a local boy, I replied her and said to her " thank you ma, but its not my fault"

She sent me the next text message and asked me where is the money I gave you to buy something for me?? I replied her and said I gave it to Austin.

She never texted again forever, I went home on the 25th of December 2014 but before leaving the house of those my brothers, I had made an arrangement with Daniel for a new work since he had agreed that I can live with them in their room.

I made all this plans alone without consulting anyone or asking for anyone's opinion, I planned it, applied it and I achieved it.

It has to my experiences and it has increased my knowledge, I was always an angry kid, filled with utterly loneliness and unimaginable desires, my background that was supposed to be my weakness turned to be my motivation, each time I need a reason or a motivation to take a risk or try something new I have it at on a steady reminder in my mind the need for me to bring my family out of hardship it was enough to break every chain of weakness or foolishness in my life.

My family is my purpose for struggling, my family motivation, no matter what I do in my entire life my family comes first, even though we are not that close but no matter the distance they are my only family.

Family is always and forever, the bound of family is very strong that nothing can ever break it unless you forsake it. "Family can be more than just those whom we share blood with" some say family is power some say family is weakness, but whichever ways, family is the strongest and endless allies any one can have.

Even when you reject them when you're alive, when you die it is still your family that will bury you wether you like it or not, "A dead man has no option"

So no matter what I do in this world, my family is my purpose and motivation.

I can't trade my family for anything because they are the irreplaceable luxury, without my family I wouldn't have existed, so I owe them my existence..

After the Christmas holiday people started returning to the city as usual, and every one had also expected me to go back to the city too but they never knew that I took a french leave from my working place and currently I had no job or anywhere to live in the city, except Daniel calls me and ask me to return then I can return to the city.

So I waited in the village expecting and praying for Daniel to call me if he gets any job for me then I can come but I told no one except my half brothers in the compound i grew up in.

Every other person had expected me to go as others were going but I didn't go until 24th of January which was on a Saturday he called me to come although I had been calling him And disturbing him that I want to come back, after he called me on 24 I couldn't waste time I traveled the next day being 25 on Sunday morning.

The work he wanted me to do was given to another person before I could return he didn't get the information on time, so when I returned to their house, I had no money, I had no job I had nothing, I even lied to my parents that I've gotten a job before traveling back meanwhile I've not gotten any job, I didn't just want them to start worrying about my survival so I lied to them.

The next day being Monday while everyone has gone to work I will remain the only jobless person in the house but I will refuse to stay inside I dress up and go out to search for work in the city, I would trek a very far distance searching for work every day.

I couldn't get any job for about two weeks now, for about 2 weeks and some days I've been searching for work and I couldn't find any, I began feeling frustrated and depressed I didn't know what to do, I so much hate being idle and more especially i detest being lazy.

On the 12th of February 2015 it was on a Thursday I went out as usual to look for work in the city and I've walked for long and the sun was crutching badly I decided to go back home and pour water on head before it will explode, I've walked for long returning, from a far distance I sighted a notice board hanged on the door of a supermarket saying sales boy wanted, and It was almost close to my house and I crossed that place while I was going but I didn't see it.

I decided to branch there before going home, I entered inside the supermarket to ask them if they needed a sales boy according to what I saw written on the notice board hanged on the door, it was two boys of about almost my age that I met there.

I greeted them and one of them answered the greetings but the other one did not respond to the greetings, I asked them if they needed a sales boy and they laughed and they directed me to the woman there are working for, who was just as their mother.

I met the woman and greeted her and she answered the greetings, I told her I am looking for a job and I saw a notice on her door, she looked at me for few seconds and she asked me where I'm coming from..
