Echoes of the past

Chapter 4

How time flies, before I realize I was already in my final year in senior school.

It was during this time, I became friends with Ezekiel. At first, he was just a classmate our conversation started with just him throwing a harmless joke, about our English teacher's choice of shoe that day, and me laughing along out of politeness. That was the beginning of our friendship, afterwards we started exchanging greetings, and we soon became close pals that do hang out after class and school exam. My school loves giving final student exams in order to test how prepared we are for our senior school exam (WEAC), after such exam he his always like a breath of fresh air for me, like he his the only one that doesn't judge any mistakes I made while writing my exams he always listens, and his ready to correct and help in his little way. unlike my parents that wants perfect scores but with him I felt truly seen.

After our final exam, our friendship continues on phone as I was not allowed to visit or meet up with him. He was actually the first that didn't judge my inability to meet with him which made me accept that woman can be really dramatic. He made plans with me that I never had the opportunity to go to, though he was always disappointed but he still understands. we discussed all sorts of things like the University he would like to attend after jamb, which was a neighboring University as I have decided to attend university in abuja, because I don't know how I will react to change of environments as I have never traveled out of Abuja. Although, my parents decided that I would be staying in the hostel, which I have not come in terms with they believed I will need it for future purposes in other to be able to stand alone.
