HOW MY MEETING WITH TONY BECAME A CURSE
I met Tony Frederick, the man whose relationship with me blighted my educational career and ruined my life completely and fortuitously at a party organised to honour my friend's sister. It happened that I went to visit Kern, my friend, who was living with her sister in lkoyi and my visit coincided with the day the party was organised. Initially, I didn't want to wait for the party but Kemi persuaded me to. Despite the fact that I didn't tell my parents that I would not be coming back home for the night, Kemi was able to persuade me to attend the party.
Tony must have noticed me when Kemi and I were assisting the celebrant in serving food and drinks to her guests. He later came to excuse me to have a dance with him. Without giving it much thought, I quickly jumped at the chance by obliging to dance with Tony. Tony Frederick was a young man of twenty-four years. He was fairly tall and he had a fascinating and captivating look, and so when he asked me for a dance I could not but oblige him.
After dancing with him for some time, he introduced himself to me: "I am Tony Frederick. What is your name?" He asked in whisper as his body got in contact with mine. I told him my name and before I knew what was happening, a rapport had started between us.
Tony didn't say anything to me again until about 2.00am when he came into Kemi's personal room where I had retired to for a rest. It was in Kemi's room that Tony's interest in me was made known as he made love overtures to me. He introduced himself as a businessman who frequently travelled overseas. I told him that I was a school girl who was too young to get involved with a man of his age. Tony was not deterred by my excuses, and from his insistence grew a love relationship He gave me his address and promised to call on me in the school because I had warned him against coming to our house. since my parents would not approve of our relationship.
I had forgotten everything about Tony until he visited me in the school in a white Mercedes Benz car. This visit opened the floodgate of chains of visits to my school and the commencement of the various love escapades and outings we had together. Tony pampered me with innumerable expensive gifts like clothes, and the more I accepted these gifts, the more I sank into the dungeon, where I later realised it might be difficult for me to get out.
When my parents noticed that 1 came back home late from school whenever Tony visited they warned me after suspecting that something was happening. I hid many things from my parents and most of the gift items and clothes Tony bought for me were kept with my friends. Whenever he visited the school, we would go to have our fun in hotels. At times, I would sneak out of school to go out with Tony when lessons were going on. After some time. I lost my educational focus as I had the intention of furthering my education in the future. I became engrossed in my relationship with Tony and got lost in the maze of love affairs with him.
Getting pregnant for Tony, I became confused because he didn't call on me frequently as he had been doing earlier on. However he called one day and I told him about the pregnancy and he decided to take me to his house. It was in his house that I got to know that Tony was a criminal, an armed robber. whose gang the police had been hunting for a long time. While I started getting to know Tony's true identity. a group of armed policemen swooped on the house and I was arrested with Tony and his gang.
We were arraigned before a tribunal trying armed robbers and unfortunately I was jailed for nineteen years while Tony and his gang were executed. I gave birth to a male child while serving the jail term. After finishing my sentence, I could no longer go back to school. This tragedy ended my education career. I have disappointed my parents, who have undergone many traumatic and harrowing experiences and I have to live the rest of my life as a shameless and wayward lady, whose life has been ruined. I wish I had never met the man, Tony.
