Dear dairy,
Today is one of the most embarrassing days of my life. Well, I met a spoilsport who gave it that record.
This is what happened………………
I was scheduled for a meeting at my uncle’s place in Surulere (he was supposed to introduce me to his friend remember?) but then, I decided to make a quick dash for cash at the ATM on my way to his place. As I walked away after my transaction, I noticed someone was stalking me. I slowed down my pace to see if he would walk past but he didn’t. So I simply refastened my bag’s zipper and held it tighter. Even though I could not see the face of the stalker, I didn’t want to take chances. He walked up to me and started a conversation. I wasn’t interested and this I tried to make him know in clear terms but he turned deaf ears! So I decided to endure the conversation since I was almost at my uncle’s (But wait o, this guy’s diction is on point!, the conversation was not so bad after all) so I decided to enjoy it (endurance turned enjoyment…) but, all of a sudden, he stopped and started to laugh hysterically. I was shocked but not yet as shocked as I would be when he said…
“You talk like you have a hot yam in your mouth” (I thought that was all…….) “You’d sound better if u could be more real”.
Words could not express my shock, such insults from a stranger whom I didn’t know from Adam….
Well, it wasn’t long before I recovered from the shock and lifted up my right foot; I was wearing a Louis Vuitton sandal with a pencil heel, stamped on his left foot and gave a long hiss!
As I walked away angrily, my thoughts ran into action.
(What if he walks up to me and gives me a dirty slap? No, he won’t. he’s a gentle man) but none the less, I increased my pace so much that any more increase would have meant running but before I could say “Jack Robinson” I heard some footsteps behind me and was given no time to wonder who it was as Tony(Yes, that’s his name) walked up to me (at this point, my heart beat had quadrupled)…
