I mingled with the students in the Boy’s only School, I became their friend, although I was
looking for the right prey. I needed a starting point; that one rat that would bring me all
the other rats. I needed the daily in flow of sperm from the boys in the school….
I noticed there was a boy among the students who had strong influence on the other boys
in the school. He was from a poor home. I knew he needed money so I started out by
giving him money, spoiling him silly. That made us become great friends. He was my pal.
I had rented a new apartment close to the school, due to the nature of my job of
scavenging for students, I changed houses at interval. His name was Bode.
Bode, was so close to me, everyone in school called him “Mr. Chuks’ right hand man”.
Even though he was a boarder, he had the key to my house. I could send him to my house
to pick up something for me in the house. I would give him a written note to the security
men, who had become my friends also, thanks to the weekly monetary gifts I gave them…
Bode was at my place one evening, and I pretended to be sad, Bode kept asking me what
was wrong…
“Uncle, did I do something wrong? You have not been your cheerful self for days, and
today seem worse, what is wrong?” he asked innocently
“Nothing…”I said staring at him…
“Uncle, you keep saying nothing, but you are staring at me, like I have done something
wrong!”
“No Bode!, if there is anyone doing something wrong here, I am the one, and honestly it
is not my fault, it is just how I feel…I can’t help it” I said maintaining strong eye contact
with him
“Uncle, what is that? Tell me, I could be of help”
“Are you sure you can help me. Because, I feel like I am running mad!”
Bode nodded in the affirmative….
“Ever since I was a little child, I had always felt like a girl on the inside and that made me
attracted to boys. I have done a lot of prayer, deliverance and it seem like god is not
answering me. I even disciplined myself, but ever since I set my eyes on you, I have not
been the same…Bode, I feel something for you, that I have not felt for anyone…”
Bode was silent, he was shocked and he whispered...“Uncle you are gay?” the words felt really heavy on his lips…
I nodded and shed my fake tears…
“Oh my goodness, I shouldn’t have burdened you with my personal problem”
“Sir, as a Christian, we have been taught it is wrong, that God did not make a mistake in
creating man and woman. Sir, if you are having issues with your sexuality, I believe you
should go for deliverance…”
I laughed…
“Bode, you don’t want to know how many deliverances I have done, from herbalists to
pastors and the Islamic clerics…even the white and red garment…I have done all sorts,
but I just came to the conclusion, this was the cross god wanted me to bear”
I made sure I brainwashed him before he left my place that “god” knew about my sexuality
and “god” could understand if I fell in love with a man...
Bode left my house that day, but I knew I had planted a seed in him. I noticed he was cold
towards me after that and he always avoided me. For close to two weeks, he avoided
coming to my art studio, so I was on the lookout for him.
After about 14 days, I was able to trap him down under the mango tree at the center of
the school...
“Bode, I am very sorry for saying those words to you that day, I had no one else to talk to
and I felt since you were my friend, I could share my personal s****l battle with you
especially since you were the one I was having the feelings towards. I am sorry if it made
you uncomfortable towards me…I don’t want to lose your friendship…please forgive
me...”
“No uncle, you have not offended me, I just needed time to think about all you said, andwhat I felt more for you was pity and not anger. I imagine how you have been coping all
this while”
“I will survive” I said smiling…
“Uncle I have missed you too!”
“Really, will you come over this evening, let’s play chess…”
I noticed the idea did not sit well with him…
“I promise not to do anything stupid” I said jokingly and he smiled
“I will inform the security man to let you out in the evening”As I watched Bode returned to his class, I knew within my heart that I had caught this
rat…
Just then, my phone rang…
“Chinaza!” I saw her Caller ID on my phone screen
“Chinaza never calls to say hi, there must be something wrong!” I said to myself
“Hello ma’am…”
