A little girl of 9, once wrote a letter to me
A letter filled with love and compassion... Reminding me of my promises to her.
I'll read the letter to you...at last you tell me what you think of this letter..

So due to the impact I've made so far in the lives of my pupils.
Almost the pupils of my school wanted to be called my child. Yeah I mean my biological child.

I'm a young man in my young age.
Not yet married or even on the plans but ive had kids and children all over the world, whom I know, at a time many would forget me.. but mostly wouldn't. That's the level of their trust and confidence in my existence.

I lived in a compound with a pupil of mine, her name Schama Setodji.
This little girl lived with her mum and younger siblings. Yeah she had younger siblings even when she was a baby herself.
She's the first daughter and the eldest as well.

She was directly in my class as well and had the highest level of respect and home training one could think of. We acted as though she was my daughter even the school had to respect and treat her differently cause of my close relationship with her.

She loved me .. yeah she loved me so much.
And at the same time, I never abused this relationship I had with her by anything or any means. If I tried, she would know and she would call me the highest enemy. Trust me kids these days aren't like that of Old times. A kid today is led by a great instinct and spirit even older than an adult.

We continued being just this way.. until one day .
The mum approached me boldly and asked me to grant her a favor and I shouldn't say no.
Curiously and surprisedly I asked what it could be...
She said "Uncle please is it possible you take my daughter along with you anytime you're going to Nigeria?"

I was shocked and tried to ask more questions which I did ...
The lil girl wasn't present in the discussion but the summary was I asked the mum to give me time to see how it would go
Nigeria isn't a safe country to speak of
Shes a lil girl and to take care of her wouldn't he too hard but it would be at least.
I wanted to plan strictly before deciding.

Despite the fact it would be her greatest happiest moment, trying to meet up with a better standard with her at least to have something nice to call experience with staying with me wouldn't be that easy too...

Well.. it happened that way.. and I understood the trust the mum had for me also

But before this day.. something happened
A night, around 9pm.. Schama knocked and I opened the door..
I was surprised at seeing her in my apartment that last.. but I confirmed her mum knew she was coming over.

After I made her a hot tea and treated her specially like the guest she was lol... She had a few lil discussions with me and handed me a piece of paper she was holding..

And in the piece of paper.. the letter below was the content.

She mentioned me taking her to Nigeria...
And the mum brought it up again after that night

What could make a parent trust someone so hard to let her lil daughter travel down to another country with her...
But in all you do..
Be transparent.. no matter how or what anyone does to paint you black... You'll always stand at the top
