Must Read: Sisters In Bond - Season 1 - Episode 19

April woke up that morning full of happiness. She
was very grateful to God for the scholarship the
director had given because she knows that it
was the Lords doing that’s why the director has
accepted to sponsor her in school not because
of the idea the
principal came up with
April was also happy that she had written Jamb
just as her mum
had advised if not she would have stayed at
home for a whole
year.

She was about to go and greet her parents when
I mum came into her room.
April: ”Good morning mum”
Jane: ”Morning my dear. How was your night?”
April: ”Was blissful and yours?”
Jane: ”Was restful and peaceful”
April: ”Mum I was about coming to greet you and
dad before you
came in but let me go and greet dad” (standing
up)”
Jane: ”that wont necessary because your dad
left home early today”
April: (sitting down again) ”Okay mum”
Jane: ”I came here to discuss something with
you”
April: ”Concerning what?”
Jane: ”Your education”
April: ”And what about it?”
Jane: ”My dear, you know you have already
written your ssec and jamb remaining your post
utme that is just three months away? Now I want
to know where you are going to stay when you
gain admission into the university”
April: ”Mum I plan on renting a one room
apartment to stay
because I don’t want to stay in the hostel”
Jane: ”Why won’t you be going to school from
home? I think it will
be better”
April: ”No mum staying in school will be better
because I will be
able to concentrate more in my studies”
Jane: ”No my dear I want you to go from home
so that I will be
able yo keep an eye on you”
April: ”Why are you so afraid to let me stay on
my own”
Jane: ”My dear it because I don’t want to loose
you too”
April: ”Mum why are always making this
statement of not wanting to loose me”
Jane: ”Because you are my only surviving
child” (she said in tears)
April: (confused) ”Only surviving child? I thought
I was an only
child”
Jane: ”You are not my only child but you the
surviving one”
April: ”The child you are talking about is he or
she my elder or
younger sibling?”
Jane: ”None because she was your twin”
April: (shocked) ”Mum are you trying to tell Me
that I have a late sis as my twin ?”
Jane: ”Yes my dear”
April: ”Why didn’t you tell me this before?”
Jane: ”I didn’t tell you because am still hurting
deep inside over the
lost of my child though a part of me is still
telling me that my child
is still alive”
April: (in tears) ”What killed her?”
Jane: ”I don’t know because she died few hours
after i gave birth to you girls”
April: ”That means you don’t have anything about
her I can see”
Jane: ”Yes my dear even me I didn’t get to see
her when she was alive”
April: ”I can’t believe all this while I have been
wishing to to have a
sibling but little did I know that the cold hands of
death to my only sibling from me”
Jane: ”Now you see why am afraid?”
April: ”Yes mum but me staying in school doesn’t
mean you are
going to loose me”
Jane: ”I may loose you to bad friends in school”
April: ”Mum you know the type of daughter you
have, i don’t make
friends, I promise not to mingle with bad friends
in school and
mum going to school from home is going to cost
more than me
renting an apartment”
Jane: ”You are right my dear. I didn’t even think
about the cost”
April: ”Does that mean I can look for an
apartment in school and
come visiting you and dad weekends?”
Jane: ”Yes my dear”
April: ”Thanks mum. I think am still feeling sleepy and
am going back to sleep”
Jane: ”Look at this girl o! You think because you
are now through
with your exams, you can now wake up anytime
you feel like?”
April: ”Yes mum”
Jane: ”Come on get up from that bed and go do
your house chores
then you can start reading for your post utme”
April: ”Reading for post utme is still too early”
Jane: ”Post utme is just three month away so
you are going to
start reading now” (with that she left the room)
April said to herself ” there is still time for me to
read for my
post utme but now am going back to sleep”
Then she collapse
back on her bed.
