Empire High School - Season 1 - Episode 45

A stone hearted guy? Stubborn? And
unreasonable?

“How do you feel now?” She asked
“Pardon?”
“I mean..Discussing what’s bothering you
with me” she said
I thought deeply
I didn’t respond
“I heard a story of a boy who his mom left
at a tender age. She had a child for a
married man and then his wife found out
and paid her off. Inorder words the woman
accepted the money and stayed away at
from her child. I don’t know much about
the story, but years later, the same woman
asked her husband to move the boy away
from her home” she paused
I stared Intently at Kate

“Are you kidding?”
“I’m not faking a story” she replied with a
serious look on her face. Then I knew she
was serious!
“The man obeyed his wife. He hired a
nanny for his son and moved him to Lagos.
The nanny died and now the boy is staying
alone. No mother to give him a good night
hug, no father to check his card, no family
to call whenever he is not feeling well..Just
the usual allowance from his father who he
hasn’t seen for years now”
She stopped and toyed with the tip of the
glass.

“Can you imagine that life..” She asked
I was touched by the short story. That boy
must be really lonely.

I have a father and someone who’s willing
to fill in the gap of a mother but I was
holding back and she was still waiting for
my acceptance. Miss Lola never yelled at
md despite everything I did and said to her
years back.

“I can..imagine it. He must be lonely than I
thought.. And hard on him”
I replied in a low tone
