Her Burden, Final episode.
They rushed out of the hostel, Bisi's makeup was a bit bad but she didn't care.
Tola shouted from a distance in a playful tone;
" Go back into the hostel and get your face well baked, bush baby".
Bisi ignored her and moved fast towards Mr Ebenezer's car.
Eva was sitted at the front already, applying her lipstick the second time.
"Hurry up girls, else we'd be late for the matriculation".
Tola could hear Mr Ebenezer's voice echoe,
She quickly joined the others.
The car left the gate in a glimpse, Mr Ebenezer focused on the road while Bisi mended her unproccesed face, Eva was looking through the window...
Tola broke the silence;
" Eva, I've never perceived this fragrance, you smell really nice
I must commend"
" I bought her that"
"At least, I didn't bad mouth her like you, I spurred into action"
Bisi continued.
Eva chuckled.
Tola felt really bad for all the times, she spoke badly to Eva about her problem which was actually solved by the calm Bisi.
Eva could see the bold writing as Mr Ebenezer approached the gate;
" LAGOS STATE UNIVERSITY, OJO.
The tall black guy smiled at Bisi who winked back, Tola was irritated at this scene..
Mr Ebenezer squeezed a 500 naira note into his hand, Tobi smile turned into a laughter, they rode past.
*****
The matriculation had already started by the time they got to the hall.....
The three girls walked gracefully to the front as all eyes were on them..
Tola was not happy with the boy in a red suit, he wouldn't take his eyes off her, she prayed in her heart that she wouldn't miss a step
*******
The vice Chancellor took the speech and other activities went on.
The matriculation ended at about 5pm....
Mr Ebenezer and the girls took very nice pictures and ate the food and goodies Mrs Ebenezer packed.
Mrs Ebenezer has a big supermarket at Aja, she wasn't able to make it because she had to inspect some new workers herself so she made sure she packed everything necessary for the matriculation party.
They left the venue at about 6:30pm...
Mr Ebenezer dropped the girls at their hostel and rode back home playing the popular Fela song
"I no be gentleman at all, I no be gentleman like that, I be African man. Original! "

THE END
