Do your best I was in the shop on a Thursday afternoon, when my Oga’s friend came in. She was really bothered and was murmuring. All the apprentice including myself were wondering what could have been wrong with her, as she was really a jovial person. This time around, she came in and sat down, praying aloud. That was unlike her. At first, I had wondered what was going on, but then I kept looking at the clothes my Oga was cutting as that was the main reason I was there. I…
Everything’s gonna be okay Farouk sent me a Dm on WhatsApp in the midnight. I could tell he wasn’t having it. He was frustrated about being the first child of three wives, his father married. Things were not so good for him as he is depending on the gadget he sold. Farouk, insisted he wasn’t going to do fraud to earn money. He’s so consistent on posting his business on WhatsApp. I really wish Farouk get a breakthrough soon. I can’t imagine the pressure from his mom and his…
Happiness I took a break. During the break, I had time to read RETURN by Karen Kingsbury and Gary Smalley. The book RETURN was the other part of REMEMBER. I then noticed, it had other parts, but it’s worth the time. In the book, I was happy Ashley finally got all her shits together and moved on, by talking to God everyday, and finally decided to show her paintings to the world, only for her to be tested positive of HIV. I didn’t only focus my time on books, but I finally had…
Your friend’s enemy is not your enemy Do not inherit beef, not from your parents or friends. I once said in one of my articles on “HATE”, do not say because your parents do not like some certain people, you decide not to talk to them. Whatever happened between your parents and those people, happened in the past. You do not have an idea about it, so, don’t pick it up. Girls do this a lot! Just because your friend isn’t talking to another girl, you decide not to talk to the…
Only last born children will be able to understand When you get old enough, all the housework falls on you, no matter how old you get. Whenever I see Daniel, I see myself in him. I’ve never liked the chores. Whenever, I get to do it, I do it with so much anger in me. I ask myself why others couldn’t do it, but me? Daniel is a young boy of about 11-12 years. He’s my friend’s little brother. All Daniel have to do is to fetch water in the house and clear the dishes, plus, run…
All Things Are Possible On Friday evening, I received a call from Mom. She said there was going to be a family dinner on Sunday evening, and she want everyone present. At first, I didn’t like the idea, but then my Mom has never called us for any urgent situation before. I was anxious. I needed to get someone who would spill what had happened to me, but no one knew. Everyone was just as curious as I was. I called my Dad to explain to him that traveling from Oyo to Lagos is…
Maybe it’s true There is this common saying that Good girl no Dey pay. Maybe it’s true. No matter how loyal and good you’re as a woman, you will get your heart broken. I met Emmanuel in my second year in the university. He has always been good to me. There was a time he paid my tuition for me. In every way, he has been a good man. He was two years above me in school. I cherished every moment spent with him, but then there was this problem of womanizing I couldn’t bear. He’s…
