BISI'S POV   It took only a split second for my whole life to flash before me, my past came to mock me in the cruelest way ever, while my future was miles away unaware of the judgment my kinsmen had passed on me.  

Esther had moved on from me, from us. She now dates the president of our school student union. The most popular and handsome boy in school. Sometimes I wonder why she felt he was a better option. I agree I never could give her the sexual pleasure she desired. But that other boy was Casanova and a bully. 

Jude's departure to a foreign land for fear of being killed hit me thinking about my own situation. I wasn't ready to die yet or become a source of grief to my friends and family.

As I walked into the hotel lobby, I noticed it was crowded with people and most of them were guests trying to check-in. I wasn't surprised by the rush because it was a Friday and weekends were mostly for getaways, weddings, and general funfairs.
