We lodged a complaint.

“Forget about the failures of the past week. This week is an opportunity to do better. Look ahead. Be great.”

Since it was a weekend yesterday, it was so much fun with my boyfriend and because of this, I couldn't do anything on any platform except for me posting my usual posts. I prepared breakfast of Jollof Rice and Egg for us while watching the time for the worker's meeting in Church. My boyfriend had been talking about eating meat pie or burgers with Ice cream and when it was time for me to go to church, I promised to get them for him at a nearby eatery.

We spent an hour in the church while those who are in the visitation group which I am one of them had to wait as we were told to visit some members who haven't been coming to church for a while. At least a church must ask of its members when they notice they haven't seen them around so that it won't be as if nobody from the church asked of them.

I just joined the visitation team last Saturday when my pastor was searching for volunteers in the group. I didn't raise my hand at first but he asked if I would love to join and I don't want to refuse him since he picked me, I had to agree to join. Though I am someone who likes to do things on a low-key and when my attention is sought, I go for it immediately.

We went in groups to visit some members and it was so sad that the majority of those we visited were unhappy and complaining that no one in the church ever visited or asked of them which shouldn't be so. We had to keep begging and apologizing and promising them that such won't happen again. After some chitchat, we said our goodbyes and went our way.

They moved to visit more houses of members when I had to take an excuse of getting to somewhere as it was already around 6:30 pm and where I needed to get the snacks and ice cream is a far distance and going out late at night isn't my thing. I immediately took a bike that carried me to the eatery.

As I got there, the cash with me wasn't up to the snacks I bought and they do not accept transfers. Thank God I went with my phone because that would be another big problem. The only option would be for me to turn back home and I wouldn't get those things he asked for. I took a few minutes to go downstairs, looking for where to withdraw money. That took me another 10 mins to get my money and I went back to get my snacks while I paid my money and left.

On getting home, I handed over the snacks to him and we were eating. One thing about me is that I love taking a deep look at what I am eating so I won't be eating nonsense. This is just junk food to me but it was my first time trying burgers and I wanted to see what it taste like. It was my boyfriend who suggested the snacks. If I had known, I would just have bought meat pie to save us the stress.

While eating, I felt like I ate rope and looking at the burgers, I was seeing white ropes all around the snacks and even it was stuck inside. I had to alert him and he confirmed it in his own too. He was pissed off and mad at those people. He wanted us to return the stuff to them but it was already late.

We called them through the number on the receipt I had with me which they asked for a screenshot. Thank God we snapped the burgers as proof which we sent to them on their WhatsApp number. They apologized and promised to bring another two burgers down to our doorstep which they did after a few minutes.

When we collected it, we found out again that there were ropes in the burgers and we saw it was from the package they used. I just couldn't eat anymore, and the same thing with him. It was a night of laughter for us as it was just so funny even though we were unhappy about the whole thing. I gave him the remaining rice from the morning while I was already filled up too and that was it about yesterday.

I haven't been able to reply the comments on my previous posts and I will try to check them out later today when I return back from church.

Happy new week!!!

Thanks for your time.
