Story: Legend Of An Ikotun Boy - Season 1 - Episode 11

We were confused…
We were about removing the mask…when I sighted a tree nearby… I didn’t need a priest to tell me that the tree was my excape route…
I jumped from the rooftop to the tree..sliding down to the ground…
John seeing me also acted fast trying to escape he jumped….but the security man wasn’t gonna let two of us escape that way… He shot at John… ”ARGHH!!” John was hit…
Seeing he was only hit on the leg the security personnel got angry and shot continuously at us… But we were lucky to get away…

When we got home I tried cleaning up his wound… And when it was morning I rushed him to the chemist for some first aid..
They removed the bullet and treated it for him..

THE EXAM DAY:
We reported at the exam hall around 10am cos we had paper around 11….
I noticed that there were more security men around than usual…but I didn’t careless…
I was chilling on hundred of thousands already within 2weeks… Now that’s some fast money…
I sighted John…his leg has improved …he no longer uses his couches….

I sighted some Mopol officers then I knew something was up… I’d totally forgotten bout our little action film 2weeks ago…
The security dudes were whispering to each other…Something was definitely up!!

11am:
HEY YALL!! …form a single file please….shouted a mopol…we were surrounded by mobile policemen…

Then they started searching…well its a regular procedure for them to search everybody….

When it was John’s turn…they looked quizzing at him…
“you where’s the key the HOD gave you?”…a security man asked…
“I’ve misplaced it…”
“when?” they asked…
“two weeks ago”…. He answered
Then I remember………
We were on our way home running… I was carrying John so that we could move faster…
“wait!! Wait!! Wait!! Sam…I’ve misplaced the key”
I was worried “when last did you see it”…. Ermm I’m sure it was with me on the rooftop!!
“oooh!! I’m sure you misplaced it on the tree…”…
“yeah yeah!! Maybe”…

Then it dawned on me that he dropped the key on the rooftop…jeez!! we’ve graduated!!!
Before John could gave an explanation…an officer came and searched his legs….everybody was confused, about what he was trying to do…
Until…
“YES!! Its him…see the bullet wound…” he said..
fu-Ckit!!! Its done!! we’re busted…I admitted..

I watched in tears as John was dragged away…
They were beating him mercilessly…
“where’s your partner?? Where’s your partner”…the mopol asked while dragging him into their van…
WAS I CAUGHT?? WAS HE EXPELLED?? WHAT REALLY HAPPENED…..find out in the next episode of this series!!
