Stupid things I did just for fear. Am now a fighter

Ohhhm, it's not like that, leave me alone. You'll wound me.

Hahaha, who is holding me and why are my seeking for relief? Wait oo, where is he holding me sef? Chei, what a world! Some days aren't easy to forget in a hurry.

Dear family, during my tender age, as a babe raised up in a Christian household, my parents warned me never to fight and I kept on abiding by the christian law. In school, even mere children I know I can easily beat the hell out of them do challenge me because they noticed am afraid to fight. Honestly, I could remember the day one of my junior students threatened to beat me up. Hehehe, because of that, I went home through bush. Mind you, I didn't mention bush path, rather, I said Bush. Chei, unforgettable days!

The next day, my classmates even make mockery of me. Though I felt bad and inferior, yet, my happiness is there because am following my parents advice as an obedient child. So even though they were mocking me, inwardly, am happy.

On another occasion, something strange happened. Hahaha, please don't laugh at me oo. it's just old good days when Ada was a girl. But, it's only Ada that can tell if she's still a girl till date because myself @marajah is no longer a girl. Lolz. Ok o, let's continue....

That day, one of my junior students threatened to beat me up because I flogged him base on our teacher's instruction. That very day, I couldn't concentrate to lectures because my mind wasn't at rest.

While teacher was there teaching, I was thinking on how to calm the girl because she was heating up.

At a point, something came up into my mind. Yea, I sent message to her. When she receive the message in form of letter, she warned me not to miss any while coming to school the next day, else, she will also beat me.

Chei, what a stupid life!!

Do you guys know that I sent a message across to her seeking for an approval for ransom. Hahaha, 🤣 I promised to bring 5 cups of rice, tomatoes, maggi(seasoning cubes), onions and groundnut oil to her just for her not to beat me up.

Now, instead of telling me thank you, she went ahead to threaten me that if I don't bring them the next day, she must beat me. But, wait o, my people, do you guys know that it's a small girl I can beat without seeking for help that am afraid of. Too bad. Even the teacher that asked me to flog her went home peacefully while myself was the one suffering the consequences. The world no balance at all.

My people, on another occasion, I was among those instructed to punish latecomers. (Latecomers are those students that always do come late to school). While there, I also applied caution to avoid issues. But, something bullish happened. When a set of students arrived, my classmates wanted to flog them but one of them refused seeking for me to be the one to flog her.

My classmates refused and at the end, the girl also threatened to beat me for not dancing to her tune. It was then I realize that she wanted me to flog her so that I'll also bring rice and other ingredients to her. Chei, there is God oo.

Luckily for me, those my classmates that flog her threatened to beat her up if she should touch me. That was how I escaped oo.

But, one day, the unexpected happened.

One day, while playing football with my villagers (both boys and girls), I couldn't even detect what really happened and they demanded me to fight with one boy. I senior the boy o.

Naturally, I became terrified and my elder brother was also there. The truth is this, that my brother also want me to come out from that shell of fear. So, he accepted for us to fight.

Boom 💥, as the fight started, the boy placed his hand on my neck and instead of me to fight back, I started yelling and shouting:

You're holding me on my neck, leave me. It's not like that, you'll wound me, am your sister o

Hahaha, it was an unforgettable experience I tell you.

You guys need to see and hear how my brother mocked me including all our friends, neighbours and fellow villagers.

From that very day, I swear never to give chances again.

But after the incident, from that very day onward till date, I turned a new leaf. If you doubt, come over let's fight.

Honestly, that was when I realize the need to fight when necessary.

And because of how strong I became, that was why they all forgot the incident and stopped making mockery of me.

Lesson

If you have a child, train him or her of the need to defend himself when necessary even if it will demand for a fight.
