Tomorrow - Episode 5          Jason's first term results was supercious in the words of his headmistress, although he didn't get much credit this time because majority thinks he has gone through the class before and he was familiar with all the subjects and topics. This awesome performance of his was repeated in second and third term which made him the overall best in primary 4.      The village school couldn't organise the prize giving ceremony as they had already spent money on their inter-house sports, also a new building for classrooms was under construction in the school compound to accommodate the growing population of pupils. Jason thank God for our wonderful results, it seems like God worked to our favour,no prize giving day this term. Altleast no parents will spoil my friends mood said kanu. I am not afraid to face anybody said Jason, i have gone past that a long time ago. All i see is just Tomorrow, nothing more. Kanu then asked J...

Tomorrow - Episode 4        Jason what are you doing? where on earth did you learn that from? Who has imbibed this into you?  Screamed the old Woman who saw Jason trying to put his hand into a girl of his Age's underwear. He explained that it wasn't what she thought that he was trying to help her take out some of the rice that fell off her spoon to avoid stains. Shut up who do you think you are fooling, Ije is that true?  Ije with Food in her mouth nodded in agreement. Mama came back and the first visitor to their house was the old Woman, immediately Jason saw her, he knew what was going to happen after she leaves. Jason!  Jason! mama anamabia(am coming). Just as his guess was, Mama locked the door and gave him the dose of his life. He cried asking God why this happened to him, the ones he has been involved in for a while now, no leakage from that side but on the one he had no intention of any such he got punished for it. Sleep took him off guar...

Tomorrow - Episode 3 Tomorrow        Jason shut  the door back apologizing for not waiting for her to open the door for him after he knocked. Aunty Chi who knew exactly what she was doing told him not to worry that he should come in, Jason while shivering trying to recover from the shocking cold he got from what he saw rejected her offer that she should cover up and meet him outside. That sounds strange anyways coming from a boy of 7 thought Aunty Chi even though she knew that a village Boy of 7 was by far wiser and stronger than a City Boy twice his age. She then threatened to report him to his grandmum for seeing her without clothes if he refuses to come in, reluctantly Jason went to avoid being punished by his grandmum. The last time he didn't obey Mama's instruction, he was locked up in the room and was beaten until his grandmun was satisfied. Aunty Chi asked him to join her on the bed so that they can play, this was how she painted sexual abuse to be...

Tomorrow - Episode 2 Tomorrow    Now that day is over,    Night is drawing near,    Shadows of the living,    Still across the sky,    Amen. This was the song of Jason and his classmates, a joyful song every child cherished to sing because it sounded like a freedom song.       Mama, as Jason calls her had enrolled him in the village primary school after he had patiently waited for his hand to touch his ear at age 5. Jason was a brilliant Boy and he had this force of attraction that made his teachers and  the villagers to like him, every parent wants their children to associate with him.       At the end of the session he came out as the best overall pupils in primary one, promoted to primary two in flying colours. His success brought more attention to him as he was called out on the prize giving day to receive his prize. Jason made a lot of money from different people that came out to spray him w...

Tomorrow - Episode 1 Tomorrow Pregnant??  "No am not pregnant", this were the exact words of Rose to her mother and those that noticed the changes in her behaviour. Her widow mother who was a trader took her round their  small village in Rivers State meeting with different groups of elders for them to plead with her daughter who was 18years to confess if she was pregnant but she still denied it.     At some point she was giving breathing space but it was done on her when she could not hide the pregnancy any longer. The baby bumps answered all the questions that required answers. Rose only had to tell them who was responsible for the pregnancy which she did with head bowed down because she has dissapointed many people that had so much confidence in her and used her as a model that their children should emulate because of her homely and academic qualities coupled with her beauty.      Dasa, Rose mother could not send her out because she was a vi...

Tomorrow The story is about Jason, who was born out of mistake by his secondary school mum to a bicycle repairer in a small village in River State. He was left in the care of his grandma because his mother wanted to further her education and his mum's family were not willing to accept his father's proposal for marriage. He went through various training with the grandmother such as hawking, selling in the market with her during market days until he was done with primary school education and was taking by an uncle to sponsor him through secondary and university education in Lagos but the table turned around when his uncle's wife used him as an househelp, maltreated him. He was forced to do so many things against his will. He got admitted into a federal university but was told to reject it by his uncle's wife because she can't employ another househelp when he is still with them even though she was an housewife. Jason rose to stardom with his savings from his uncle...
