"Nothing is eating me up", he said, trying hard to sound manly, his voice tired and choked up, "only that I may not go to school again, that's my anxiety".As he said the last word, two drops of tears appeared on his cheeks but found their way to the ground. "W-why, w-what happened?", his mother stuttered, her voice rising, her eyes bulging as if they were going to prop out of their sockets. In this episode,was nothing actually 'eating' up his mind? What could. Find out what it was all about. A few yards away, while silence reigned, Osita's voice was ringing in the air as he cried out of the school premises. His voice sent a chill down many spines including the headmaster's, who turned, took a glance at him and shook his head. This sprang up an unusual quietness in the class, even the piece of chalk in Mrs Nlemchuku's right hand fell down as if in sympathy with the boy, as his voice went on piercing the air. In this episode, Osita finds himself in a hopeless situation. How hopeless was the situation? Why was he crying, and where was he heading to? Did he scale through the hurdle? Additionally, his mother gets diver-stated by the turn out of events. Gosh, will she survive the pitiable ordeal? Only God can save her. "Yes, I was right. I can only know what you have in your mind when you have said it out", he reiterated, gesticulating with his right hand, his eyebrows slightly raise up.
