The evening was so calm, the daffodils opposite the house was fading due to the after effect of harmattan, the festive season was gradually losing its flavour as persons were already travelling. The cool breeze swept over my face, bringing strands of hair just below my nose. Harmattan was the doing it's job as everywhere was brown and dusty.
I had sat there for over an hour thinking nothing, perhaps something but it was too shameful to share.
At least the the daffodils had persons who cared to pour buckets of water on them once in a while so that it doesn't dry out completely; something that seemed to insignificant yet nutured.
In my case, who cared?
I'm sorry I can't put together words to make a meaningful sequential conversation, my thoughts are scattered.
It happened so fast, I didn't have the time to process what was happening to me, the moment I beheld God's creature, my hormones pumped, adrenaline flowed through my vein, there was a desire to Just jump and hold this creature.
At first, I didn't want to but the urge within intensified, the fire within me completely overwhelmed me.
You know that time when you are in between the temptation of whether or not to do, you just know for sure, within a split of seconds, you would lose every inch of self control you have.
Funny things is that, it kept staring at me and refused to take its eyes off , the audacity from the stare was rather determined like someone who had found what it had searched for in a very long time.
Without hesitation,I pounced on it and unalived this rat. This rat has been rather bold for the longest and I had resisted the urge to do it.
I just had to do right away.
