Finish the tale story #11 : Take me home

Sitting at the dining table, I suddenly understood what home really meant because nothing sat well with me here.
I watched as my seniors randomly made side lame jokes about a junior eating pattern and quickly called out the other to engage in an unnecessary punishment or send a junior to do one thing or the other.
Not even considering if the person has eaten.

Well, it's now part of us to eat quickly, so I won't blame them for sending someone on useless errands.



The food eaten was something I could never eat at home.
It was much and tasteless, unlike other days, it could have been little.

At least I had to satisfy my hunger first but I couldn't because it tastes so bad.

I am still sitting here trying to force myself to finish my meal because the seniors would punish you if you don't.

"I want to go home," I cried deep down, but no one would certainly hear me here.

I am in a room filled with strangers, and even my classmates and friends wouldn't understand me.

I so much miss my parents and siblings by now, we could have been enjoying a great meal happily and could share how our day went while eating too.

This is not the dining table I grew up to know. This is different and not favourable to us juniors.

That is so sad...I hope once she will feel 'home' again

She will.
It's a gradual process.

Going to the dormitory as a young child can be hard. I remember the first day my father dropped me off at the hostel in my junior secondary 1, I cried a river. I felt so alone. But all of that is history now, hahaha. 😅 Well done!

Exactly 💯
It's not always easy at first oo

Thank you very much dear for stopping by

Boarding school wahala, the way junior student misses home ehnn but when they get to senior class they don't want to go home because they are enjoying the authority

That's true.
It's a funny experience.
