Sad note to my confidant
Dear Fred,
My partner in distress and in consolations.Memories sometimes can be blown away like sand dust but not the ones we shared together which shall forever live so long we exist. We walked the same paths from childhood to maturity we saw each other fell we saw each other rise. Oh Good old times, when we wine and dine together, when we tread along the alley leading to our school with our hands locked silently counting our footsteps. Today I so much long to see your golden smile which has the ability to lit in me the fire of hope. We've cried together we've laughed together oh what a stress free life we lived then.
A strong bound we shared together which seemed to be unbroken until destiny decided to exercise its power by separating our paths. Destiny took you far away from me to south Africa leaving me behind here in Kano to face this cruel life alone without the comfort of my confidant. We dreamt of achieving a lot together but today here we are with records of failures and little success. Such a pity time cannot be trapped.
With grief in my heart I write to you not to add to you burden as I know you just got sacked by your boss but to let you know life has also chosen to extend it's cruel side I never requested for.
Fred I joined the world of those without parents two days ago. Death decided to extend its cruel hands to my family and took away my daddy and mummy not satisfied he never hesitated to take Aminu my sister and Bello my younger brother for unknown reason he decided to spare Dada our driver.
As you know death cannot be negotiated with once it knock on the door it opens without a welcome notice it takes its victim away without a second thought of affection such a cruel being he is to have launched me into the world of lonely souls.
Fred my fate is yet to be decided as you know I am a female child which the family of my parents now late believes to have no value to add. As you know they have always treated me like a piece of commodity waiting for someone to place a price. Fred what do you think will become of me?..........
