Throughout that day class was like that, I keep crying,teachers hating me.school closed for that day I got home,twas the 1st day I saw my mom at home I was like what’s wrong Buh she was very sick n weak wanted to take her to hospital Buh no money,I went to farm and make some sales I bought medicine Buh twas just d xm b4 she sleep she asked me to read a letter 2mao morning I agreed,she slept off and I was just staring at her I couldn’t sleep few hours later I slept.

_Dear son, I know you’d be crying when you’re reading thus but you were never observant,I was dead since yesterday Buh was using my last breath to have the best night with you,I’ve sold our farm and the money was used to pay your school fees and the remaining ones is under the mat,Is my dream for you to go to sch,you must go to school, please my son God will help you,please go to school I may be dead Buh my shadows are with you,Mrs Olawunmi agreed to adopt you,I sold my farm to her please Go to school._

She hate me,please God help me I entered the rain dig a burial hole and buried my mom in front of her house I wish she could stand up,I vowed on her burial ground to go to school and graduate as one of the best students.I entered inside the house crying and writing wat has been happening to me as usual,I write it and go outside in the rain then slept beside my mom’s burial ground
