Every visiting day, John usually prayed against his mother visiting him in school and his prayers seemed to be answered, his mother never visited him; she always sent a message to apologize for her inability to visit him.
Visiting days were usually stated for the last Sundays of the month and during such days, she was always busy in the church and she had to give an account since she was the church secretary and then she would attend family meetings where she has well held an important position.
While John's mother was sad that she could not visit him, he was very happy because he was afraid that the moments she comes to visit, his friends will begin to call him all sort of names.
Up till the time he got to ss2, his mother never had time to pay him a visit in school. His elder brother usually came to the school to pick him up at the end of the term.
Now, when he got to ss2, his friends began to have girlfriends and to everyone's surprise, Anthony who was supposed to be the class preacher was the first person to have a girlfriend.
It was john who found out when he stumbled on Anthony, the preacher beside the science laboratory block talking with very pretty girl in her class. The lady was the more christian type of person, at a point he thought they were having an innocent conversation until he saw them hugging each other and then they held hands and they beagn to hold hands and they walked in a manner that they wanted everyone to see.
