He had found out
that Seun tried to call me the previous night. She wanted to escape. He was the
one that sent the text messages to me using his own phone. He wanted me to
witness her death. Apparently, Seun must have told him what I said to her the
day she came to pack her loads from my house. I bought time so that my friends
could get to the location with several arguments. I want Seun out of that place
without another scratch. It wasn’t long before my friends came in with the
police. He got scared when he heard footsteps and shot the gun. I fulfilled my
promise of protecting Seun. The bullet went straight into my abdomen.
He couldn’t
shoot at us again before the police got hold of him. My friends didn’t allow
Seun to be around me in the hospital. They were angry and bitter. They shouted
at her to get away. Even my pastor could not get himself together. His right
hand man in ministry is in coma. My friends could not believe that I could take
a bullet for Seun. After all she has done. My pastor’s wife was the only one
who was cool headed enough to speak with her. She advised her to leave the hospital
and start the reconciliation from her parents. Firesola was taken to my
pastor’s house.
Hours turned
into days and I remained in coma. My internal organs were slightly affected.
Thank God. The healing process would take time so it was better for me to
remain in coma till I am able to use the organs again. After the last surgery,
my strength became very low and I would need emotional support to regain
consciousness. The doctor advised that people that I love should be brought
around to talk as I could hear things around me. Firesola was the ready answer
of everyone. She was certainly happy to see me. She shared several stories of
school with me. She is certainly a beautiful story teller. She believes that
God wants her to be a Lawyer, but I think she will do better as a teacher.
