Episode 66

Finally the day for our pre-degree exam arrived. I woke up with a fast pounding heart and with prayers on my lips. Emeka woke up stared at me and shook his head sadly, in our mind we just wished and prayed for something to happen so that the exam could be postponed or shifted to a further date,
hmmmm, only if wishes do come true..........

We slowly and silently prepared for school that morning without our usual jokes and laughter, and when we finally got to school around 7:25am, every where was very gloomy as most students carried on sad faces, while the intelligent few increased our tension by going through three to four text books and past question papers at the same time.
Hmmm surely the day of reckoning has arrived, a day the fate of our future with Imsu will be decided, a day to defend all we had learnt, a day of great suspense, prayers, pounding hearts and great tension.
"let thy will be done oh lord, but please don't let the cup of my future with Imsu pass over me" i prayed......

Emeka was just a shadow of himself that day and even though he appeared calm and composed, i knew he was very well shaken inside, he had tried to read the previous night, but after few minutes of laboured reading, he had given up, cos he was unable to understand most of what he read. But then how could he understand, when he hated English with passion, literature he had no text book on it, even government, he never did attend the class for once, and how could he understand what he barely knew?, "seriously he could have followed me when i was searching for solution instead of decieving himself" i reasoned.....

Watching him made me smile and i forgot all my worries as i thought about him, supposing he had followed me when i was running around for a mercenary, things wouldn't have looked this bad for him, but then he had failed to make hay when there was still sunshine cos he believed in fate,
hmmmm fate!
"Okay oo lets just watch out how today will be" i said in my mind as i silently watched him.......

Thirty minutes before the scheduled time for our exam, Micheal the student i hired to write my exam for me was yet to show up, even though he had promised to show up in school before 7am in the morning, when i called him on phone the previous day,
"don't worry guy i'm very very ready for the exam" he had assured me, which really relaxed my mind the previous night.....

So with confidence i tried his phone number, in order to know what was delaying him, but sweat appeared on my face when i heard,
"the number you are calling is not available at the moment, please try again later", I tried his phone number again and got the same response, i tried again and again, the same old response answered me.........

My strength jumped into my stomach, while my mind flew as my heart froze.......

"Emeka is now better than me, at least he had done a little futile revision which i didn't do" i reasoned as i felt faint and weak

"GOD please please please" i almost cried as i called on God, while trying Micheal's number again and again.......
