Her dad drove in with a bag of rice behind and half bag of beans in the car's boot. Her mum had bought other foodstuffs right before that day. While her mum was still packaging some goodies for her, Eniola was packing her luggage while her younger siblings were taking the luggage to the car. In the bags were her clothes, bags, shoes, and so on.
She gained admission into the University of Lagos recently.0 She is aspiring to be a medical Doctor. Her parents were very happy as their firstborn is leaving them to go to a Higher institution. The younger ones knew nothing, they were just jumping around singing "sister Eniola is traveling, sister Eniola is traveling"
They finished packing the foodstuffs and other loads, the car's trunk couldn't contain her loads, they had to put some in the car's seat.
Her dad took his car key and went into the car.
Eniola! Let's go "Her father called loudly".
I'm coming sir "she replied".
As she was about to leave, her mother prayed for her with tears in her eyes.
Why are you crying mummy? "Eniola said". It's tears of joy "her mum replied".
Goodbye, my love, be a good girl,
Goodbye, mum.
She got into the car. They took off and started their journey to Lagos. While in the car, her dad gave her a piece of father-to-daughter advice.
Dad: Eniola!
Eniola: Sir
Dad: As you are going to school, make sure you face your studies, do not engage yourself in bad activities. Don't let the bad ones entice you...
After 3 hours journey, they got to the University of Lagos. Her dad drove her to the front of her hostel and paid two male porters to help her take her bags and foodstuffs in.
When they finished packing the loads, the following conversation took place between the father and his daughter.
Father: Eniola, I just sent 500 thousand naira into your account
Eniola: Thank you, sir
Father: Make sure you spend it wisely and buy the necessary things you'll need.
Eniola: yes sir.
Father: Bye, take care of yourself
Eniola: Bye dad
Her dad entered his car and drove back to Ibadan.
Eniola went into her room, swept the room, emptied her bags, and arranged everything in the right places. By that time it was 6:00 pm already, she was tired. So she left it unfinished and rested for a while before she cooked and went to bed.
Her first day on Campus
The following day she woke up early, continued the room arrangement from where she stopped. When she finished, she dressed up and went to lecture...
