This picture is one of my best pictures,that is because it is the only picture I grew up to see that had the 4 of us. We did not have a sister but at some point, we adjusted to being the guys at home. My mum Was the only woman amongst us. We were fond of each other and we supported everyone. People might say male children are always tough but we have never for a day caused a problem that brought people to our home. They called us the "Inyang 4"
When we were growing up, we use to think my dad was a stricked man because he never played with us, he was always mean and each of us had our special cane. Immediately you do something that was bad, my dad will order you to go and bring your own cane.
Dico I just miss you so much. Miss all those things we did while growing up. You were a bunch of fun, fearless man and someone that carried fire. One thing we hated so much then was watch someone else make you cry, immediately you come back home to say so so person made me cry, I can vividly remember how the 4 of us will rush out from the house to go and face that person.
There was brotherly love amongst us and I miss those moments. Each day, I just have a reason to remember you and to wish you were still here with us. You were dad's resemblance and when people visited home and saw you, they will immediately say "this one na the Papa e resemble" I miss those moments I use to bribe you with an egg yolk so you can wash plates for me when it was my turn. I miss those days when if I touch you small you will scream for daddy to feel I have finished you but when you actually know I did nothing to you.
I appreciate everything and how fun it was with you.
You were so close to me and people taught you were actually my twin. I miss those days when you will play and injure yourself and you will run back home shouting my name to come and see what has happened to you. I miss those days we will tell you to go and tell dad we are tired of eating that soup and he will ask you what you want to eat and he will grant it because he loved you with everything in him.
Sometimes I just wish you were still alive to see everything that is going on around your lovely brothers. I miss watching season movies with you. You were the reason I completed prison break that year and you are the reason I am yet to finish Merlin movies.
But in all the same, it is all good.
I miss you everyday.
