Yesterday was unusual, I felt it from the moment I stepped my foot outside the house. You know that feeling you get sometimes, what do they call it again? That feeling you get when you feel like you've lived a particular moment before, like you're convinced that that day has happened before or you're just dreaming.
So here's what happened, yesterday I was feeling some type of way and I called my friend if she could get me some drugs on her way to my house. We planned on reading together that day, but I wasn't feeling too well. By the time she arrived it was already 3pm.
These were her exact words " Meya who owns the box outside your house"? I was surprised because I didn't keep any box outside, I just brushed it off and told her it probably belonged to my neighbors. She was still persistent saying it's just outside my doorstep so it was definitely for me. I turned to her and quickly ran outside despite the fact that I had severe cramps.
I saw a black box right in front of my house. Let's be honest, this is 9ja, and you don't send gifts to someone in a black box. We're too spiritual and always read the worst in things like that. Immediately I saw the box, my spirit was restless, maybe it was because of the colour or just the fact that I felt strongly in my spirit that I had lived that day before and I knew what was in the box.
My friend came outside and asked why I haven't picked the box up and I told her it wasn't just a box, but there was something inside that wasn't for the ordinary eyes. She laughed at me and said I'd watched too many horror movies and I need to chill. Well I was convinced that that box was evil. She picked the box from the floor and handed it over to me. There was a tag on top of the box that said "Meya,.shall we go again???" and with a joker face.
When I opened the box, I saw a card, and on the card a short sentence was written on it "LETS GO ONE MORE TIME". and immediately I knew that I had lived that day before. A nightmare or a fairytale, I had no idea, but I knew I was in for a bumpy ride...
So DEJAVU is the word.....
