SERIES::: TEJUMOLA (EPISODE 11) ************** We got a one room self-contained within four days, not up to four streets from Bolas place. I also got a shop in the market, I started selling provisions and soup ingredients. Eniola enrolled in a school close to the market, so she could come to me after closing from school. Business went on fine, at least we didnt lack anything. ***** Eniola was trekking back from school with her schoolmates. They always walk in group,-in threes and in fours. Eniola hold my hand lets cross the road. A neighbours daughter called Tola,told her. She was older than Eniola, I had begged her to help my baby cross the road always. No Eniola said defiantly. Cmon give me your hand. tola said again. Nooooo Eniola said again. Eniola, your mummy will beat you o Tola warned her. I am a princess, my mummy wont beat me. Eniola said laughingly.

Eniola! Tola tried to hold her but she was far gone. An on-coming car screeched loudly before coming to a halt, almost banging into her. She fell down due to fear. Its occupant ran out.
