Hello steemians

How is everyone? I'm so glad to be part of this contest. It's been nice reading my friends stories and cover design. Do you want to read mine?
You'll have it all in a minute read.

Kemi dosen't deserve this! She was a friend so dear.

No! I won't be compelled to believe I did this. She has been my friend from primary School. We graduated and got into high school and we were still friends.

Kemi comes from a rich home while I was not born with a silver spoon. My parents strives to earn a living but they were determined to see us through good schools. I was fortunate to attend the same school with Kemi. She loves me so much and became my friend.

Many times, Kemi would take care of my lunch in school. She buys things for me or shares her food with me. The bond between both of us was so strong.

After high school, we bade each other bye as there was no hope to attend higher institutions.

Kemi felt so sad when I told her. She encouraged me to also prepare and write Jamb. She promised to tell her parents to assist my education and I was extremely glad.

Both of us purchased Jamb form that year, we wrote and passed together.

Kemi's father took over the affairs of my education. I attended University of Jos while she attended Convenant University.

Few years later, she graduated while I was still battling with strike in school.

Later, I graduated and Kemi promised me a job.

After my service year, Kemi offered me a job in one of her establishment. She now owns one of the notable shopping malls in Lekki, Lagos Nigeria.

I was so much consumed with jealousy how well my friend is doing. She is now highly respectable and I also respect her too as my boss.

Few months later, I ran into a group of boys planning a coup on how to kill her. They contacted me as her close friend to get information from me. I gave them all details. I was so jealous and needed her dead.

Few weeks later, on a working day, my phone rang, I picked the call only to receive the information that Kemi has been shot dead.

I ran to the site only to realize it was true. I saw blood all over Kemi. The group of boys followed exactly the information I gave them to get Kemi.

I cried heavily. I prayed it should be a dream, I realised my mistakes. I couldn't cope with my self and my deeds. I prayed all day for Kemi to resurrect, I even tried rewinding the hands of time to retrace my steps but her death was a reality.

I never believed it was true. I assumed I was sleeping and I tried waking up from slumber, but it was a REALITY.

I tried laying hold of those group of boys. I planned contacting the armed forces because I can recognize their faces but THE REALITY is that they were not just the one who killed Kemi. I KILLED KEMI.
