An afternoon of decisions : Based on true life story

David was working with a phone company in Lagos, Nigeria. He had to leave work for some certain reasons at abuja which lasted for about six months. After his journey, he called his former boss to ask to return to his working place. Surprisingly, the boss told her that she will call him when needed.

So David lived each day with the mind that be can be called to work at any moment. He could not really plan his day as he wanted as just a phone call could twart all his plans. He lived at the moment of each second. Three days went by without receiving the call. He started to wonder whether is line was working. He had people around him call his line to confirm - the line was working. He asked colleagues from work, who are close to the boss to dial his line - the line was working. It was like waiting for rapture. One thing is sure in those days, David would wake up early in the morning, take his bath and dress up, only to sit down on the sofa and await the Golden call from his boss.

On the fourth day, he dressed up as usual and sat down waiting for his phone to ring. On that morning, the house maid - a woman with a kid -was feeling sick and was rushed to the hospital, leaving the small boy with David to take care of. As they were leaving, David was thinking within, what if my boss calls me? David slept, the boy slept. It was around 12pm when the phone began to ring. David was alarmed and quickly checked it, it was the boss! He quickly picked the call and the voice echoed without pity "find your way to the office now". At about that time, cloud begins to form on the sky and within seconds, rain began to fall. David now has two problems, the young boy left with him and the rain falling heavily.

David begin to rack his head. He called his mum and ask for solution on the baby. He was told to hand him over to the estate security men. One problem out, remains the other. Before we knew it, David had shamelessly entered the rain with a yellow rain coat. He took the boy with him, handed the boy over to the security men and got on his way to office.

It was a cold afternoon for David. That was how he got re employed to his office.
