On the 5th of April 1992, Mrs. Ogubuike gave life to a baby boy who would grow up to bring light into the lives of those whom he was given the opportunity to meet on his short journey here on earth.

February 17, 2015.
It was on this day you gave up on everyone who cared about you. On everyone who loved you. On everyone who wanted to have a success story with you. You gave up on the people you touched their lives with your words and smile. You gave up on your dreams. You gave up on everyone and Everything that mattered to you. We got along so well, we fought, we laughed and you would always teach me physics. I remember after high school when you almost gave up writing your post-U.M.E exam to get into U.N.N, and we fought about it and you eventually wrote the exam and started school. I remember when you came to visit me (After your SAT result came out and you wanted to see me) with all the excitement about your result. I remember calling you and telling you I was going to Canada and you were so worried you would never see me again. Came home in 2011, and you came all the way to my village to see me (My Dad was pissed that day even though he was very warm and welcoming to you. That, night I got a lecture about marriage and why I can't marry my mate). December 22, 2015 you told me you that you would be going to your village to see your mother but I tried to stop you because my spirit wasn't okay with the trip. I wish you had listened to me when I begged you not to go to your village for Christmas. I wish you had listened when I pleaded with you not to have that surgery in that Hospital, Our last conversation which was on the 15th of February at exactly 2AM where you said "I am getting better" still confuses me and I am still waiting because People who say "I am getting better" don't die. Your fears and questions in high school about God, Hell and Heaven; I hope are being answered by God himself. I miss you everyday. I always pray you would send me a message on whats-app just to say it was all a prank. I wish you could read all this, I wish you would smile at me one more time..... I can't even cry anymore but my heart still bleeds. I believe God took you away so soon because He is saving you from something worse. I am glad I met you when I did, and I am grateful you touched my life in a positive way. Continue to Rest In Peace Tobechukwu.
