8.50am
My Dadβs cell phone rang again. He looked at the caller ID, it was a strange number. He picked the call.
βHello,β
βGood morning Sir, am I speaking with Mr. Ikedi?β
βYes, who is this please?β Dad asked.
βI am the principal of Wisdom Child Academy and your son is my pupil. I am calling to inform you that he has not been in school yet.β
βYes, emβ¦ he might come late; there are some unforeseen circumstances that arose at home,β Dad replied.
βI hope everything is alright Sir.β The principal inquired.
βEverything is okay, thank you very much. I assure that he will soon be in school.β
βAlright, but Sir I want to use this opportunity to inform you that I have been getting reports that Johnβs behavior in school has not been impressive lately.β
Dad somehow became alert, βWhat do you mean by that?β
βYes he has been constantly missing classes, he sometimes leave before school dismisses for the day, his performance is very poor which I am sure you have seen in his last result. In fact he has already been marked as one of the students that will be repeating class this year. I think it will be very necessary for you to come around and hear what the teachers have to say about your son Sir so that together we can come up with a possible solution.β
Dad didnβt see Johnβs last termβs result. What the principal was saying was strange to him. He didnβt know what to say.
βOkay, I will try and make it to the school before the end of the week. Thank you for this information. I very much appreciate it.β
βThank you sir,β the principal replied and the line went dead.
He went into the bedroom to talk to Mum about the principalβs call.
βJohnβs principal just called me. He told me that his results are poor and he could repeat class this year. Is there anything going on with him that I donβt know?β
Mum smiled, it was a rude smile, βthere are a lot of things going on in this house that you donβt know. Well I saw his last term result and spoke to him about it and he promised that he would do better this time around.β
βAnd you didnβt bother to tell me about it?β
βWhen last did you and I have a meaningful conversation? I am even surprised that you are reacting to the principalβs call.β She replied.
βWhat do you mean by that? Well I am going to talk to him about it right now, how am I not sure that he does not have anything to do with the lost key.β
Dad was not happy with this news. He angrily and quickly walked int Johnβs room. John was surprised. He couldnβt remember the last time Dad walked into his room. He sprang up from the bed, dropping his cell phone, which Dad didnβt know he had. Ada was the only child in the house that freely flaunts her cell phone.
βI can see that you are not even worried that you might be missing classes today.β Dad said.
John didnβt reply. He wasnβt sure of what to say.
βI got a call from your principal, what was he saying about you missing classes and having poor result? Where do you go during school hours?β Dad interrogated him.
John continues to look at him in fear. He was really surprised, he didnβt expect Dad to barge into his room asking him all sort of questions. How did he get this information about his school activities?
βI can see that you have gone dumb. Did you purposely hide the key so that you would miss school? What are you running from?β
βI am not with the key, I am not running from anything.β He defended.
Dad felt John was hiding something. He began to search his closet while he continued interrogating John.
βYou leave my house every morning yet you miss classes, where do you go?β He was searching through one of Johnβs school trousers when his fingers felt something. He dipped his hand and brought out a sachet of condom.
He stopped. The room was silent for a few seconds.
βWhat are you doing with a sachet of condom in your pocket?β
