April Fool gone wrong

The first day in April is a special day where you get to prank a friend or someone you love, this kind of prank is done to get closer to friends and loved ones, I don't think is a worldwide celebration thing but most countries know about it.

Recently over the years, April 1st which is celebrated by pranking people have been turned into deceit and some prank have gone too extreme with the prank they do and this has caused many to detest the celebration of the 1st of April.

I'm a big fan of the April fool celebration and I don't do an expensive prank, I only prank my best friends, most of the time they already know I was gonna prank them so they don't fall for the prank and the same goes for me, I know them too well for fall for their prank. I don't like the prank of "send me your account number, I want to send you some money" its a pretty cool prank to play on your close friend but not someone you're not really close with, I won't find this funny when someone plays such a prank on me.

A story of how April fool went wrong.

A friend of mine (Noah) and his girlfriend (Dorcas) have been dating for a year plus, Dorcas is known to be a prankster, she believes it would add spice to the relationship, she played a lot of pranks on Noah believing he would get her one day, Noah had already warned her about the prank she plays that he doesn't like it, so she stops and waited for April first to play the ultimate prank she had planned.

It was April 1st, I and Noah were at my place when Noah received a disturbing call from his girlfriend, she was crying on the phone and saying she was sorry, I had already forgotten it was April 1st and how good she is at pranking, she told Noah she just found out that she was pregnant and the guy that did it had forced her to have sex with him. Noah didn't tell me what was up immediately, he left my place, according to him, he started consoling her on the phone that she shouldn't cry again, why didn't she tell him? What will happen now? Have her parent heard about it? These are all the questions running through his mind.

He later called her to tell her big sis so they would know what to do next, and if it was an abortion, he would try to find the money. She said she would never abort that she was scared, so he got more worried, he told her to just relax and not to cry again.

That night, I notice Noah didn't show up at my place like usual, I went to his place and I notice he wasn't himself, all the gist I had for him, he didn't partake in any of it, the following day he told me all that happened, she later called that night and scream April fool on the phone, he hangs up and switches his phone off... After he explained all this to me. I didn't know what to say or advise him, it later turn into a big fight, he claim it might be true, she begged and explained everything to him, ever since that day, things weren't the same again and as I type this story, they aren't together anymore... It ended in a breakup.

In conclusion

Before you prank anyone, know the kind of person they are and their mental state, you can't keep pranking someone that hypertensive, you would just cause more trouble to their health. April fool day isn't all bad, but it can be bad when you go too extreme with your prank.

Thanks for reading my write-up as always, I hope you all had a good day. Wishing you the best in this month of April, it's a good month with a lot of opportunities, make sure you grab them.
