A baby born with a coil in his hand Growing up I read and heard so many ridiculous and not entirely true stories of babies born with several marks on them,the legendary 666 mark, a saviour's name of their feet and what not,this story is completely different. This coil I am going to talk about in this story is actually a contraceptive ring. Yes,a contraceptive coil,I call it coil because that is what everyone called it at that time. In a ghetto area ,during the time that the Nigerian government just became democratic again,there was this face-me-i-slap-you building. In this tenanment house lived a young, healthy plump woman.

You meet her and just realize she was a rare type that don't come to earth often. As opposed to most women in her time that were timid,shy and dependant upon their men folk, Sylvia was independent. She was a charmer, undeniably. She had really long dark hair and her skin was light in complexion, something that was uncommon in her parts at that time,had intriguing eyes, mesmerizing smile but most importantly she was innately intelligent. Sylvia did so well in her academics that she had a scholarship. Before high School, suitors started coming,it was a common thing then. Sylvia didn't care much,she left the responsibility of choosing to her parents. S
