Nikky has just been given admission into the University and that was the period her Dad gave up the ghost with just a little ailment when he was sent from work to take some treatment before resuming back as a security man at Alphajont Multipurpose Industries. The company really performed well at his burial and they were responsible for the whole bills at the funeral which made Nikky and her mom happy. She is the only daughter and child and it was an easy one through her Primary and Secondary School Education.
She passed the Joint Admission Matriculation Examination and was given admission to study Mass Communication but things turned upside down when her Dad died. At least his share was the biggest in sponsoring her as her mom was a trader who only sells her goods to provide meal on the table. The two couple already divided the bills before his death. Nikky's Dad was responsible for paying her tuition fees while her mom only made sure food is always on the table. This has always been going smoothly and convenient for the family as there was peace in the home. This made Nikky enjoys her life as a child and teenager, having the best parent who were there for her.
After the death of the father, the family still stood by them but on one condition, they promised to send Nikky to the University and pay up to her third year while she looks for the remaining fee for her final year. This of course was pleasant to their ears as they were elated at such help rendered to them not minding that their brother is dead.
Her mother still continued in selling what she has been selling while Nikky was getting prepared for school. They managed to get all items needed for school. She already paid her acceptance fees online which made her qualified and accepted as a student of Coleman's University.
Two weeks after, she was in school and did all other registration she ought to do so she doesn't have any issue. Luckily for her, she made it into the school's hostel as there was only limited space left. Who would have helped her in paying her rent had it been she missed this hostel?
Her uncle had sent her first year school fees and she was so happy. She didn't want to go through the stress of going to the bank since there is an alternative to pay at the school Cafe or any other cafe not far from the school. She found someone trustable and entrust her school fees and other fees too. She will give out her password and money, when she returns back, the guy would give her a copy of the school receipt as a proof that the money has been sent. This brought ease to her while she attends Lecture and do her assignments when given.
She found a coursemate and a friend who they both read together ahead of exams and their friendship has always been going smoothly for the rest of the session in 100level. They both had similar things in common- both are introverts and love to listen to music while reading. This definitely made their bonds so tight and were glued together.
Exam is fast approaching and both of them are prepared for it as they already read ahead of all papers. She went home quickly to get some foodstuffs as she doesn't want to starve herself during exams. "When food is in the stomach, book will be easy to assimilate", she said to herself.
She spent two days at home before returning back to school. Her mother had to remind her of the advise she gave before going to school on the first day. I didn't forget mom, your words are right here on my palm, showing her mom her left palm while they both smiled.
She got back to the school hostel with her foodstuffs locked in her wardrobe because there are some students who go around stealing their foodstuffs when they aren't inside or have gone to take their bath. This way, no one would be able to sneak into her wardrobe to take her foods.
Exam came and gone. They are now in 200 level. Her uncle as promised, sent her school fees and she went to pay it as usual. Everything was going fine with her until her fourth year in the University. The guy helping her to pay her school fees mistakenly sent the money to a wrong account number instead of the school's portal number. The problem started for Nikky........
Just a number created a problem for her and the guy. Who is to be blamed? Nikky or the guy?
Watch out for the next part............
Thanks for reading
