GENIUS PETER

The boy received a scholarship from Kwame Nkrumah University for his great performance in the high school final Examination. Auntie Becky visited Peter's uncle to chat with him about how they would sponsor the boy's education. She had sworn never to let the boy find out his father hadn't sent him money since he was 10. The two promised the boy all the stuff he would need at the tertiary level.

" A Person who can read and write shouldn't be underestimated "

She said.

The people in the society started lauding the boy for his triumph in the high school final examination.

" how I wished you were friends with my chap to teach him how to pass the final exams," A denizen said.

Peter being trained by his mum never boast of his results but gave thanks and sang praises to glorify God's name for giving him such talent.

" it's not by might but by God's will", he said

They loved him because they saw maturity in him.

One Saturday afternoon, he invited his best friend Quarsie over to share ideas on how to be gentle on campus.

"I heard the university has demons that destroy young men" Quarsie,

"Demons, sir never told me about it" Peter,

" I thought you were smart, but I guess only on books" Quarsie

" Well, no man knows all that's why we don't boast. See even the smartest man on earth studied from others" Peter

" That was a good way to say I don't understand, you are indeed shrewd Peet " Quarsie,

" Tell me then, QS" Peter,

" My mom told me the university has a way of ruining students' lives, one has to be brave and learn the potency of I CAN'T " Quarsie,

" She told me about the beautiful girls with the unethical lifestyle she calls them sluts, lads that do smuggling, smuggling, looting, and frauding on campus". He added

" Potency of I CAN'T," Peter asked listening attentively,

" This is the Potency of I CAN'T, many young guys find themselves in a friendship with 1 or 6 but don't know each other well, it's simply a virtual friendship. Those who employ the Power of I CAN'T restrain the choices they make when they are invited to do something the society calls bad" Quarsie.

" I can't do it, I won't do it, I don't do that, I thought they were words that pulled us down from climbing up." Peter.

" No, they don't. When you are asked to do anything unethical remember the potency of I CAN'T" Quarsie

"Our mothers are investing in us, don't let this opportunity slide, go make us proud Peet" He uttered

They believed in the force that pushed people to do things without reasoning, the two called it influence. From authors to musicians they believed fans heeded their role models blindly because musicians put on a fake lifestyle to gain more popularity.
