Mystery
Chris! Chris! Where are you? Can't you hear your name? Ma! I'm coming, I was in the bathroom, good morning mummy, what is good about this morning? Is nelson inside the room? (Mummy asked) no I have not seen him this morning, I woke up few minutes ago...
Is everything okay mummy? (With a frowning face mummy asked me, not answering me...) did you take the 10 thousand naira for my market that I kept here? (Not looking so surprised, now knowing why mummy was asking of nelson) you know that I don't know where it is, since nelson is not around and your money is missing, I think we both know who took the money...
Hmmm... He has started again with this stealing of a thing, it's okay sha, (she took her bath and went to the market that day)...
(My phone rings... Nelson is calling) hello how far? Is mummy at home? (Nelson asked me) no she not, why? Nothing he replied. A few minutes later he came home, as my senior brother, I was kind of scared to ask him if he took mummy's money, but the way he was acting seems like he has done some things bad, he was restless, he seemed like he was on the run...
He was just looking for everything at the same time, he was like, where is my wrist watch, where is that my Lois Vinton t-shirt, where is that my black short, I was like what is going on, this one that you are looking for everything, what is going on? He just said tht I won't understand, but I needed to understand, he couldn't explain and he left the house.
Few hours later, some guys came to the house, they showed me a picture asking me if I knew the person, I looked closely and I saw it was nelson my elder brother, I was a little bit scared but I didn't want them to realize that I was scared so I asked them who they are and why they were looking for him..
They said they were the police showing their ID cards and that they wanted to investigate about an issue of theft, i asked why they came here to investigate about such here, they explained to me that Mr Nelson scammed a man, nelson was supposed to sell a laptop to the man and the man sent nelson the money for the laptop but nelson didn't deliver the laptop as agreed and since then nelson has not been found neither has he answered his phone...
I was short of words because I knew that nelson could do something like that, he has not settled with the one he did with mom this morning and now the police are here to investigate about another issues of theft on one person head, God! What do we do? We are so confused...*
We had no choice than to let our problem out of our sacks, we could no longer contain it, we needed to look for help outside our box, because now it seemed like help could no longer come from our power, we started visiting churches, we prayed individually, we prayed as a family, friends and family that knew about this also prayed, it was not easy...
A family friend that had money, he has invested in this my elder brother when he was still normal, when he was in the university, he heard about what was going on, he saw that my brother wanted to waste his life and everything he had; so with his connections, he got my brother and brought him home, my brother looked like some that has been suffering for a long time, this family friend settled the police investigations and now told us not to worry much about brother, he said he would take good care of all the messes he had created...

He took my brother to a community that nonsense can not be tolerated, my brother tried his rubbish habits and when he got caught, because in that place, there is no where to run, he was beaten the beatings of his life, ever since that day, he tried to become responsible, and it worked, he finally came back a new leaf after 2 years of staying in that community, he was clean again, he learned to how to me have sense by force, he now tell people that are going astray his story, he explained to them when he faced and told them that experience is the best teacher but do not wait until experience teaches you before you use your common sense...
