Jodie ran down the stairs as fast as possible, she was going to be late for her graduation day and she wouldn't want that at all, she plans to have a little celebration at home if successfully she graduate's with a very good grades, she was going to be finally called an attorney, a barrister, a fighter for the weak and the poor.
" Jodie, come down for breakfast" her father foster said as she climbs fast down
" Good morning father, I'm very happy today, because finally I'm going to be an attorney" she said as she sat down, her father has made a Lovely pancakes for a her and she couldn't wait to have a great bit,
" Sorry it belongs to me' her little sister dorcy said grabbing the pancakes off her hands as she ate it all at once
" Silly human being" Jodie said as she looked at her father who was smiling, he was happy even if he was the only one to take care of his two girls. Jodie was only three years old when her mother left her while dorcy was only a baby
" Looks it's Mitch" dorcy said pointing towards the door as Mitch , Jodie's friend came in
" Good morning mister foster" Mitch said as he sat down while mister foster served him some pancakes and went to get some juice
" Thank you sir" Mitch said as foster sat down too to have his breakfast, or was very quiet as everyone sat eating quietly soon everybody was done eating
" I'll do the dishes" both Jodie and Mitch said as they bumped into each other causing a racket in the kitchen as dorcy fell off her chair laughing out her heart
" Don't worry about it, dorcy will take care of it" foster said as dorcy stood up, doing chores at home wasn't something she really likes doing at all
" Alright" she said as she packs up the plates and goes into the kitchen. Soon Mitch and Jodie arrived at school as they highlighted from the car, everywhere was full and crowdy, Jodie immediately rushed into her admistative office to get her results
" Oh, miss foster, you're here" the VC said as he handed over the results to Jodie, her eyes could not process what she was looking at, it was highly impossible, how could this happen to her
" But sir, I'm very sure I made straight A's during my four years in this varsity" Jodie said in tears , she could remember how she avoided parties and hangout just to study well
" It's your grade" The VC harshly said as she turns to leave but looks around
" I know, you did this on purpose just to belittle me, some day I swear to God you'll pay" she said with tears rushing out as she walked out of the office, people who were not even as qualified as she was were busy getting good grades they didn't deserve all because they agreed to sleep with lecturers especially the VC but since she refused he had to do This. She got into a tricycle, she wasn't celebrating anymore, it wasn't that painful that she didn't get the grade she deserved but it was very painful because her father would be very heat broken, he always told her that if she came out with a good grade she would immediately bang a job and be very rich and successful then the family would be happy but now she's speechless facing her dad with such bad news breaks her heart into a thousand pieces , she wipes off her tears as she gets up the tricycle as she stood in front of her house motionless. She was about going back when the door fling open it was her little sister dorcy
" Daddy, our attorney is back" she shouted as Jodie tried to cover up her mouth but it was too late, foster had already heard and was moving outside
" We weren't expecting you back home so early beside Don't you guys have a celebration at school and what of Mitch didn't he follow you back, why are you so quiet?" Foster asked as tears rolled down her eyes, she could not utter any words but only God knew the amount of pain she was going through. Dorcy looked at her father who was speechless, her crying was the last thing he expected to see today
" Tears of joy?" Dorcy asked as her father sighed, he knew his daughter too well to tell that she wasn't happy, he brought her closer to his chest and gave her a tight hug wiping off her tears as he held her hands and took her inside the house, Jodie sat down while dorcy immediately went to get her some water.
" Sweetie what's the problem?" Foster asked as she took the water from Jodie and gulped it in at once, dorcy looked at the slip that was outside, she opened it and her eyes opened up , she frozed for a while before turning back to go inside
" You might want to see this" dorcy said handing over the slip to her father, who took it up, Foster's eyes began to tear up and the sight of her father crying made her cry even more as dorcy Hugged her. Foster was speechless a whole pass as a result was the last thing he expected from his own daughter, she was always so eager to learn and it was a pleasure watching her have so much interest in school works so how is this possible, not even a second class upper grade or a second class lower grade, not even a third class upper grade not even a third class lower a whole pass, it was just unbelievable, how would they survive, how will they eat, he spent all his life time saving to send her to school, dorcy wasn't even schooling, he always told her immediately your sister comes out with a good grade you'll be a student in a very good school, and they would have a very comfortable life, the many thoughts in his head made him cry like a baby, the house rent, food and his medications how on earth would he survive and Jodie how would she get a job, money, husband he thought crying more as even dorcy had began to cry she herself, she too was just trying to be strong but the thought of her education bothers her alot she could not imagine how she would ever go to school and her friends and neighbors would laugh at her. The house became very emotional, everyone was crying and Jodie knew that she has caused this pain upon her family.
