~Victory odele~

 

My name is Victory odele.I am the only child of my parent. My father died when I was at the age of 15, that was the age I finished my senior secondary School waec and we were left behind to suffer the threats of life.

My mother is a prayer warrior who firmly believe in God. She taught me many things in my tender age and ensured that I was being trained in accordance with God's word. She always tell me to avoid bad friends because bad friends corrupt good manners.she bore all my responsibilities and promised to enroll me in the higher institution.

 

She hustled and borrowed money just for the achievement of my ambition in entering higher institution;Atlas it was a success.

 

Here I am in another world,

Studying medicine and surgery in the university of Cambridge. At first I was eager to meet new fans but I remembered the words and advise of momma "Never be too anxious to make new fans, Not every body is allowed to be in ur friendship lest they destroy thy ship and you sink into the sea"; Remembering all these made me to focus on my purpose of coming to school.

In my department, I was the most brilliant,

Every other students were looking up to me,To become like me but yet I was never associating with all who came to me. Words and rumours started going round the school that I was prided,yet I listened to no one. Every Friday and Saturday after lecture, I was always going to scripture union as instructed by momma. 

 

But the drumbeat changed when I allowed myself to become social in the school.

At first, my sociality started with my roommate whose name is fedric.

 

We usually go to lectures together and she also study the same course with me, I made her my bestie, not because she was brilliant but because she was very kind and generous. My friendship with her later became a daily talk in the school. My vision towards her was to establish her in the same Christian fellowship wit me not knowing that she was a "wolf in sheep's clothing".
