While at home today carrying out some laundry work, cooking and other home chores, my phone rang. But, because the phone was a bit far from me, before I could lay my hand on it, the call cut. As I checked on the missed call, I realized that it's my aunt calling. Immediately, she called back once again and this time, I picked up. Hehehe, what I heard from her infused fear in me. Yea, she said to me:
Amyy(As she fondly call me) please call me back. There is danger ooo
Ahh, immediately, my mind wandered around. I asked myself if her gas catched fire or if any of her children is facing serious problem. Honestly, many things flashed on my mind and the worst is that I didn't have airtime on my phone then. As a result, I took the only 1k I had at home in hunt of airtime. The first place I went don't even have air talkless of time. So, the next option was to trek a distance of more than 20 poles in search of airtime.
While on my way, my aunt flashed me time without number. Ohhhhh, to me, it was as if I failed her now that she needed me most. With that, I started running from that spot down to the very shop where I intended buying from. Chei, the shop I relied on as my only hope turned to failure as they didn't have my need.
Chei, what will I do? should I subscribe online although I never intend subscribing online? Why? Hahaha, the amount in my account is rhyme number so if I should subscribe from by Bank, it will affect my withdrawal lolz. At that, I waved such thinking and continued hunting for airtime. So, I inquired if there is another place where I can buy from. They too redirected me to another seller which is four poles ahead. The way I accelerated to her shop was the exact way car do accelerate inside mathematics back then when I was in secondary school and teachers will ask me to find the speed. lolz. This world get as e be shaaa.
Alright alright, let's proceed. Upon reaching the shop, the seller has card or airtime according to her neighbours but wasn't around. What a frustrating life!!
Guys, you all needed to see how exhausted I became at that point in time. And the worst part is that my aunt kept flashing me like say tomorrow no dey again. At this juncture, it's obvious that there is no other option rather than purchasing from my bank account. And I gave myself this comforting words...
Let me Subscribe from my account. Since POS is available, any amount I need, they will give me even if it's not up to 1k.
But wait oo, POS will also take some charges from me to give me money. Ahh, is that not double loss? Eheh, that charge, what is it? Does it not mean that am buying my own money? hahaha, this world sef.
Ok oo, the main thing is that life is now at risk. I must do something. Therefore, this is not the ideal time to start counting loses rather it's time to save a life. Immediately, I subscribed online and immediately placed the call. Without wasting time, she picked and said to me...
Amyy, please rush to my house now. I saw snake inside my house and it's still there oo. Please come and kill it for me
Are you wondering why she called me? Well, I can't blame or query her because she knows me as someone that doesn't fear snake at all. Yes, irrespective of how big a snake is, leave it for me. I must kill it. So, as I heard that, I rushed back home, collected my matchet and off I went. Hahaha, if you have seen the way Centipede do rush ehh, hmmm, that was exactly the way I rushed as if am football they just kicked away. Chei.
My aunt is actually living nothing lesser than 3 miles away from my destination but I didn't care for t-fair. My people, as I reach her house or her apartment, she said to me, eheh, come, come oo, the snake is inside my room. Go there, you'll see it. Hia, see me see trouble!! How will I just enter room where there is snake like that? How will I even detect where the snake is? This my aunt have deep fear for snake. But, since am with her, she courageously took me in and she said to me...
Amyy, it's under that bag you're seeing there. It's black snake. It entered to kill me. God forbid, I won't die. even if it's my enemies that sent it, they can't get me. That's why my God opened my eyes to see it. Amyy, it's there.
Hmmm, enemies Kwa? Ohh, ok ooo, well, I asked her to pull out the bag for me to kill the snake naa, she refused and ran away. Courageously, her son came and raise up the bag. Lo and behold, this is what I saw..
At that, I bursted into great and mighty laughter. Chei, imagine that my aunt and her 2 children (both are grownups of 28 and 30) ran out from house because of mere hair wool that they themselves loosed from their hair. it's a pity.
Fear of snake na pure wahala.
What a dilemma!!!
