Hope In The Unseen
The Plot
Cedric Jennings was an introvert in his high school days. He was the product of a broken home. Her mother, Barbara Jennings, depends on her meagre salary, which was not enough for their needs. She fell in love with Cedric's father due to her imaginations, it was a result of her idea of waiting for her knight in shining armour to come and rescue her from her home. She was already pregnant with Cedric when she discovered that Cedric's father was a drug addict and armed robber who indulged in the looting of big banks.
Cedric's father, Alexander, was someone that was well known in New York. He can't spend a day without heroin. He was always seen in the casino alleys where dangerous things are carried out. Furthermore, he had many girlfriends that Barbara was unaware of. Likewise, he was a responsible man in front of her, and she was lured by his sweet words and affections. When he got wind of his information that she was pregnant, he told her that if she loves him, she will abort the baby. He told her he loves her and wants to marry her, but he was not ready to become a father. She refuses to comply with his option because she heard about girls who opt to abort, and they later die or become infertile or escape death narrowly with a damaged womb. So she made up her mind and decided to keep the baby.
Cedric was enrolled into a kindergarten at the age of three in the next neighbourhood. They lived in slums and crime scenes, and it became something that was included in their daily lives. All the nook and cranny of their street was full of drug dealers and even when harassment takes place, the people living there do not react towards it. On his first day at school, his mom bought a fake golden crucifix for him and told him to cherish it, that it will always guide him and drive evil away. His mom showed him all the drug dealers one after the other and told him," Cedric, these are bad people, they do bad things to children. If they call you, never answer them and when you are back from school, double-lock the door and call the number taped to the telephone to assure me of your return home". This became a habit for him that by the age of five, he knew the number by heart.
He believed in his mother, Barbara, who guided him in the way of the Lord. In the slums where they live, only the blacks lived there, so he never encountered the problem of racism with the whites. He was an intelligent boy whose academics' performance was envied by his fellow children and their parents, even parents want their children to emulate him. He was never proud and just reacted like he was not concerned about it.
When he was enrolled on high school, he was quiet and restrained himself from school activities. He has a teacher who was his favourite, whose name was Mr Taylor. Mr Taylor was his source of inspiration and the one that always encourages him. During the academic session party, he was always called to receive his price, but he never went. This happened due to an incident that happened to him. He was cornered in the hallway one day when he was coming back from the prize-giving party they held in their school. He was robbed, and his prize money was collected from him, which was about 100 dollars.
His classmates always call him Nerdic because it sounds like that, and he always behaves like a nerd. "NERDIC"!!!, His classmates always shout whenever they see him, they tried bullying him, but he never fought but defended himself, and they had no choice to leave him alone.
Mr Taylor always told him that he should always hope for a better life, that hope is always given by the unseen. Cedric said faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of thing not seen, but Mr Taylor always counters him by implying that faith should have been better said in an inspirational way. Therefore, he said it supposed to be "FAITH IS THE HOPE IN THE UNSEEN" which became Cedric inspiration and guidance.
Cedric persevered and struggled through his high school, though he faced pressure from bullies. His belief in his mother and the way of the Lord she showed him made him persevere to the ends and through his life challenges.
My View and Advice To People
Life is full of surprises and we all need to bear all insults given to us because that is not the end of life. The fact remains that, moving on is thee best option as you felt you are alone. You are not alone but rather be yourself and keep doing what your heart says.
