"Payback, Bitch."
Ibukun’s father punched her mother, and she went sprawling across the room to hit the wall at the other end, where she slid down and lay on the floor in an unmoving heap.
“Mummy!” Tade shouted, and ran towards her, but she staggered to her feet before he even got to her side. “You’re raising your children fine,” he snarled in Yoruba. “One is a whore and another, a dullard. Well done.”Ibukun blinked back tears from her eyes as she also went to help her mother to her feet. The woman pushed her children gently away and turned to her husband. “Oko mi,” she started, but he turned to Ibukun and snarled, “If you get pregnant this night, better look for whom to take you in, because I won’t let you enter this house again.”It’s not your house, Ibukun thought as she placed her palm on Tade’s shaky shoulders, but she said nothing. For a while, they stood like that; she, Tade, and her mother on one side of the living room table, and her father on the other. And then with a fiRelated chapters

Niyi was no stranger to hurt.Back in her primary school, it had been what she experienced the most; physical or emotional. She still had scabs all over her arms and legs she had been tripped, shoved and beaten, when her classmates thought it would be fun to “test” her and see if her eyesight was good enough to avoid the pranks they played on her. But worse than that had been the agony she felt from being friendless and alone, the one no one wanted to talk to, the one whose bad breath and dirty clothes deterred potential allies. And, back at home, without siblings or parents and with a very cruel maid, Niyi had always felt unwanted, unloved, like a mistake. Her earliest memories included watching her classmates get escorted to school by their own parents and wondering why she only saw hers about twice a month. And, after this, Niyi had had to come to terms with being blind by the age of eight, spend two years acclimating to the new disability, and finally move back to AHS t

“I have the money now, I’ll give you this night,” Ibukun’s mother told her the evening of the next day, in a whisper so her father, who sat at the TV, scrolling through the channels, wouldn’t hear.Ibukun’s mood lifted. She was going to write the exam after all. That day, after she had sat through a terse thirty minutes with Niyi while studying, she had gone to Miss Antonia to ask her advice on certain aspects of filling her form, but all the while she hadn’t been able to stop thinking about how, if she wouldn’t write the SSCE exam, the money she had spent would be a sore waste, and wondering if it wouldn’t be more expedient to keep her cash. But, apparently, her worries were baseless. She started to smile and say thank you, but her mother had hurried from her side in a mouse-like manner.On the whole, it was a much better night then Ibukun had had since the beginning of the year. She felt lighter knowing that in less than 24 hours, she was going to be registered for the
Five Plus One Equals Done The Beginning
The students of Achievers High school, AHS, Lekki, Lagos, were gathered around in small groups of friends around the school’s assembly hall waiting for the siren to go off, announcing the official start of the first assembly of the session. Most of the students were currently talking about their summer holidays which many of them had spent outside the shores of the country. Quite a few students were intent on boasting about how much more spectacular their own holidays had been than the rest of their peers, and so there was much more noise than expected.Outside the hall also, Bolaji Akinwande, the Labour Prefect Boy, was leaning against one of the pillars of the hall, occasionally craning his neck to check for what appeared to be something, or someone. He was a thin, tall, very handsome boy of sixteen years. Even with the mini scowl on his face and his obvious disinterest of the scene around him, he was drawing admiring looks from the students around him, though he was oblivious

Ibukun’s mother gave a high-pitched giggle.Ibukun hated that laugh. She hated it just as much as she hated failing exams or tests, the rich kids in her school, the devil, and of course, her father, who, now that she thought of it, could pass for the devil.Mummy, can’t you see? He’s doing it again! He’s going to go back to his normal asshole default setting in a few hours! she wanted to scream. But she couldn’t. Her father would probably slap her hard across the face, and the current happy atmosphere would vanish like smoke. And besides, her mother deserved to be happy. She deserved happiness more than anyone Ibukun knew, even if it was an ephemeral kind with the sorry excuse for a man her father was.For about 360 days of the 365 days that existed in a year, Lanre Omotosho was the perfect example of men that spinsters could go on a month’s fasting to not end up with. He beat his wife, Ibukun’s mother, also beat Ibukun and her little brother, took t

Most people would say they were quiet with people they hardly knew and were their normal fun and bubbly selves with people they were comfortable with. But for Bolaji, it was more complex than that. Bolaji believed he had two personalities. There was the quiet, sullen Bolaji and there was the fun-loving playful Bolaji. And he wasn’t sure which was the “real” him. Moreover, he usually decided what Bolaji he would display for a particular person or situation. Generally, sullen Bolaji appeared for his father, the periods when he was home, and anytime a teacher decided to grace his class with their presence. Fun Bolaji appeared with his younger sister, his friends, and formerly, his ex, Amanda.But if there was any place sullen Bolaji had to appear, it was English class, and Bolaji was presently in an English class that could easily contest for The Most Boring Class of All Time and cart away first prize. Mr Ekundayo, the most boring teacher in AHS, as v

Niyi Omobowale sat on her bed covered with glistening white sheets, in her pristine white bedroom, tracing her fingers over the book she was reading for possibly the hundredth time, Something Borrowed by Emily Giffins. The book was very possibly her best book in the entire world, and reading at least a part of it every Saturday morning had become a sort of tradition for her while she waited for Mr John, her piano tutor.Just as she got to the fifth chapter, her door suddenly sprang open with such force it hit the wall behind it. Before she even heard her footsteps she knew who it was. Omolara, her seven-year-old sister, was not one to open a door politely.“Lara, what is it now?” she said, annoyed at being interrupted again. Just twenty minutes before Lara had barged into her room to ask if Niyi could help her do her homework. Niyi had refused; their mother had given her orders to stop doing Lara’s work for her.“Mummy’s back,
