Uh oh!
On hearing that exclamation and a
scream to follow, his mother instantly knew that there was trouble! As harmless
as that exclamation sounded, her oldest son only used it when he had a serious
situation in front of him.
They were a family of six, very closely knit. Mrs Idoko stopped at having three children
initially, but years after , she wanted another so badly, a girl. She was tired
of these three soldiers staring back at her with hard faces all the time. She
wanted to be able to dress her girl in pink, use ribbons on her hair and
eventually when the girl would grow up, she would have someone who would whine
to her. Every girl would run back to her mother at some point she liked to
believe. Well, she did. A lot!
