My Lawless Husband

Chapter two

After the working in the kitchen for three hour, I and my mom go to the sitting room to have some nice time by watching the television.

As we both watch our favorite programme, my mind wonders to how the university would be for me. Although I have gone to the university countless times with my parents, but still I have this anxious feeling about what is coming for me in there.

"are you okay Stella" my mom asked, she notice that I wasn't paying attention to the program

"yes mum I am fine" I said with a smile, I am just so happy that I can't believe that I am going to be a university student and officially I am one

"see that you can't take your mind off the university stuff" my mum said as she relaxed her back to the sofa

"mum!, how did you know that's what's I am thinking" I said on surprise

"you don't have to tell me that before I know, you got the expression written all over your face" she said

"mum it's going to be fun right?" I asked with a smile, feeling so happy

"yes it would but you must let the fun vet hold of you, if you do, you might very well lose what you come there for"

I think about what my mum said, yes she is right about the statement but no one will go to school without having fun. From my past school experiences, I can say that fun is very essential in education.

"but mum, there is no how someone would not have fun I believe it's part of the educational pattern"

"I understand what you siad about fun and education and I not disputing the fact that you can have fun in the university but you need to note that you must not lose your focus" my mom said

Literally, my mum is right about what she said. Back to my primary school days, I have never been a dull girl, although I play a lot and believe that fun is part of life but it doesn't matter to me when it comes to my education, whenever it comes to that, I do what's right.

Most times I achieve my greatness in from the words my dad and mum says, they play a very great role in my educational life.

But now I will be going to a place that I will have to decide for myself, I have always wished to go there but here is my mum telling what I need to look your for.

"I understand mum, you know I never fail you" I said with a smile,

"yes I understand that you have never fail us but I need you to know the place you are now going to is going to influence you and it's up to choose what kind of attitude you are going to give in" she said

"quite a positive attitude mum, I will never allow the school to influence me negatively" I said with full confidence

My mum nods and we all continue watching the show but I still thinking about what my mom said, the university influences one, I can't wait to see it influence me.

My dad is a little late today. As he comes in, I and my mum rushed to meet him, I hugging him and carrying what he brought my mum take a good look at him.

"you look stressed hun " she said

"it's a long day" he replied, trying to force a smile

"you don't have to fake that to me everytime and I have always tell you to try getting excuse from the school, you might used up so quickly if you continue like this"

"you dont have to get worried dear, I know all about stress before I accepted the post of the Dean, you just have to give me some time, the work load will reduce soon" he says

"I hope so" she replies.

After an hour or two, we all gathered as a family as usual every night just that tonight is little late than usual.

"so you are now a university student" my dad said

At first, I did not know what to say, I am so happy and joyous that I could mkt think of the right word, after a while I give a positive nod to what he says

"I know you are very happy about it and we are proud of you but we need to lecture you on something that you need to know while you are going into that new place"

Nah, nah, not again, I told myself but I couldn't say that out because I do t want my dad to hear it. He is a man that believes that everyone need to be fully lectured about what they want to do and why they are doing that...for him, he believes that information is power, yes we all do but not the extent he is taking things.

"I would have say me and your mother should do that tomorrow but we will be going to a one week program that is been hosted by the minister of education, so we won't be available this week but we will be available next week" my dad said

"I understand dad, I will wait patiently for your lectures" I said but deep down me I know that was all a lie, I do not feel like sitting down and listening to all what my dad want to say, I just hope that the school resume quickly and I get the hell of this place, I can't wait to be a university student and walk in pride like all of them used to whenever they come back from school.

The next morning, my parents leave very early, although when they are going, they said some words to me but I cant here it, I just feel too sleepy that I can't comprehend what the are saying then.

I wake up fully at thirty minutes past eight and figure out that I haven't called the pesero so dear to me. He is the love of my life and I withhold such a great news from. Maybe I am beginning to forget him, I thought but laughs, I can't forget him, he is very dear to me. I pick up my phone and dialed his number, just like as if he was waiting, he picked the call immediately,

"hello darling" I said with a blush

"you can say that again, where have you been all the while?" he asked

"am sorry dear, I am around just that I am really overwhelmed with so much happiness of what is going to happen to me now"

He pause, thought about my word for a while then continue, "you seems really happy about this but I guess you did not tell me about it"

"yeah I know and am sorry but it's a great thing...like I am going to the university" I said with great excitement, many times I think about it I am really really happy about it but I do tell myself that I should try reducing the way the excitement eat me up every time I remember that I am a university student

"wow!!, that's a big joy for you dear, i am really happy for you"

"thanks darling. Don't worry I will make it up to you, my mum and dad is not around so I will come over and guess we have a cool time"

"ohh yeah that will be good"

"hey Bae are you okay" I said finally noting the hesitation feeling in his words

"uh hmm, you know Bae when you come we will talk" he said and ends the call

What's wrong with him, I ask myself.
