Jahi Quotes in Children of Virtue and Vengeance
Even from afar, I see the blackened corpses that lie in the streets. Corpses that lie there because of me.
I picture Inan and Mother among the dead.
I picture my best friend.
Strike, Amari.
Father’s voice fills my mind as the tears fill my eyes. Though I breathe, my chest stays tight. It feels like I’m being buried alive.
“Orïsha waits for no one,” I whisper the words. “Orïsha waits for no one.”
I will the words to be true as I ride through Ibadan’s gate.
