Introduction

There comes a point in life when nothing seems to make we become the object of our nightmares at this point you also find yourself questioning life and very importance of our existence.
In my life how often I thought I was the tragedy but over the course of the last three years I’ve realized that tragedy is the only certainty in this Life.

In life I often heard stories of friends losing loved ones and family members this has felt so surreal to me as I never imagined the depth in which the pain went I would also call my casually say sorry or is in a better place for this is what I have been taught and this word we are meant to offer comfort now looking at such word I realized that these words are nothing but a silly expression used by men to accommodate the feeling of hopelessness with death brings about with his icy grip.

October 12th 2010

They say the day your whole world comes crashing down would be the most serene day in your entire life you would be the most perfect day the day in which everything seems to fall in perfect place and this was not exception for me on october 10th everything seemed aligned I had just go to admitted into investor of Nigerian soccer and I was most delighted about the news I woke up to see my mom preparing breakfast and I smiled to her as she smiled back and in that moment I knew I was almost luckiest person alive for such a mother was rare rather than diamonds my mom looked me in the eye and told me not sure was very proud of me and that she knew I would get that mission.

For contest getting getting admission in Nigeria is one of the most difficult thing A child will encounter as the process of admission is often very hectic and difficult because involved in so much complication such as sorting of teachers and academic work but yeah I was I had gotten my admission at the first trial and the world seemed to be at my beck and call within to take orders from his new master.

The whole day seemed so perfect not giving the chance I don’t know if I could have done anything different to divert what would have happened it is now what I’m understanding that in life everything death is the only certainty Hans what happened then was only the natural order of life and I’m yet I am still willing from the repercussions of a few individuals.

You see what happened was on 10th October 2019 we were robbed while I stayed in the problem watching TV and my mom preparing her breakfast dad had gone to work I heard a knock on the door to my old most surprise us we wanted to speak to new visitors we lived a very private life.

I’m getting to the door they knocking get louder and my curiosity was peaked as who would have such effort to bang on our door in such a manner I opened the door to confront whoever that was but what I met worse a rude awakening of life, two men dressed in black and black head to toe embraced my chin with their feast and I was left spiraling

I landed on the floor and before I could catch my breath they two men pounced on me my mom saying this saying the commotion which was unfolding shouted and this beast of a man descended on the poor woman with a rat like that of a monster striking her from head to toes with the birth of their gun I watched in terror as my mother fell to the floor alongside me it was only when she had stopped moving that these two men began to state their intention to us they told us that their actions were as a result of the fact that we were Christians living in a Muslim environment and they had come to act vengeance upon us till today I often ask myself this was the will of God.

After mercilessly beating both of us the two men left as quickly as they had come and what lay in their wake was a pool of blood filled with my mom’s body she laid motionless and I embrace hearted emotionless body with tears and with vigor I ran after them but no avail I got back home and I lay with her for there was no point of being alive if my mother was not there with me I laid there covering the pool of her blood and my blood mixed together two our neighbors came in they had to pry my body from her cold as I would not let go as I was stunned beyond imagination as the hover which had just unfolded.

Till today I’m yet to recover from what was I can only say that death will come for all of us in the moment in which we do not expect it and this is my sad reality I wish no one what I experienced but I pray that one day I will be relieved from this nightmare which scored live and I will be taking to embrace my mom once again.

Conclusion

I’ve lost sight of going to school as academics offers little solace to what was all I do these days I meant but I hope that one day things would get better is not today only today is darkness hopefully one day life would be better.
