RIGHT AFTER HIGH SCHOOL BY LYDIA OGUNLOLA chapter 1

By Lex Posimi
        All my fantasy of having a perfect life slipped away when mum informed me I would be attending tutorial classes towards my coming examinations...
     "Mum,I can just read and understand on my own" I protested
    "Listen to me Lily...A pencil can only be a writing material when sharpened... You've been out of school for a whole year" she said in a calm voice
   "but...
    "No buts!!! " She cuts in
    You! My dear,are starting your tutorial class on Tomorrow!!! Mum said in a threatening manner
  "Gosh! I hate it when she gets all "mummy" on me!! I muttered as I left the living room crossed.
  "Well..Don't u hate everything lazyass" my inner voice said
  "Shut up!" I snapped
  "You now talk to yourself?" I heard a giggle from the corner of my room only to find my younger sister admiring herself in d mirror....Wait! My mirror?
  "What are you doing in my room Jane?" I asked angrily
  "Checking on my sweet sis...Any qualms? She said sarcastically without sparing me a glance
  "Oh! I hate her comebacks" I thought to myself
  "Now get out!!!" I said with a glare
   "Oh! I see someone had a nice time with mum.."she chuckled before leaving "Bye sis!!!
    "She so annoying" I muttered
  After my little drama with Janet, I curled up in my bed like I always do before getting to business which is my darling phone *N.B; bestie 001
A msg popped up on my screen....Who do we have here?

THE PARABLE OF ISOLATION

By
PARABLE OF ISOLATION Here we are With untold stories: Stories scarring our inner minds, Uncertainties fill our hearts. The intensity of our mood grows.  We were told to stay safe at home But we seem not to be doing enough. Today isn't assured Tomorrow isn't guaranteed. Coronavirus, the fear giver We reverence you in sacred dread A hand enveloped in the pocket  Sanitizer in the other. The visitor that takes over houses In the presence of the house owners. We walk on the streets in dread  The fear of meeting the giver of discomfort The fear of entering that forbidden house That house where solitude is celebrated That house, home of isolation. The fear of meeting the multiplier of troubles. Stay safe if you don't want to be isolated. Here we are Uncertain of what happens next  Oh ye plague! We await your eternal demise.

                     This is not a piece of discouragement to those who depends on or trust inspirational books, speeches or videos as source of inspiration, but it is to open our eyes to the realities of our existence and to help us discover and unveil our divine intellect,capabilities and abilities . Circumstances, occurrences and situations(Good or Bad) that can be traced and attached to our livelihood(Our existence) are the things that make us up, they define us and they make up what we call our lives. Why are we human beings if our individual lives can not inspire us, many of us depends on other people' words or speech to inspire our own life, but majority of us having listened to, seen or read inspirational materials still fails to change ,we hear and read but it has no visible effect(s) on our lives, we are not living it.
