Day seven

Sister this is the second time you're having this "Rendezvous in the night" with this your mysterious friend. Are sure we haven't found what we're looking for"

"Ada biko I just went to see David, stop making it a big deal"I retorted

"Why won't I make it a big deal when he left you with a big smile plastered on your face?  I think you're hiding something sister. Did he kiss you?tell me already! " Ada beamed with excitement

"Noo! He didn't , we  talked and laughed and hugged, no big deal"I replied a bit nervous

"Okay oo, I was even expecting something else"she heaved a sigh and left.

My sister was definitely a helpless romantic, but David is just my friend, we've done nothing that friends do not do

Inner thoughts : Except hugging him for close to 30 mins and staring at his face like cake🙄🙄

me: friends hug and stare at each other it's normal

Inner thoughts : At the expense of my poor feet, do you think it was easy watching the smoker gawk at you? 

Me: stop acting as if you didn't enjoy every bit of it, I can vividly recalling you telling me not break apart from his embrace"

Inner thoughts :😌😌 I did it for you

I got a text from David that read"two days without the stick😌😌". I was so happy that he put so much effort in quitting smoking. There was something that drew me to David but I felt that I needed time to figure it out.

Dad and mom had left the house on a romantic date, it was really sweet to see how they made love so easy. Ada had coerced me into cooking so I went straight to the market to get things for the meal.

I had planned to spend very little time in the market but I bumped into none other than Mr  ifedinma A. K. A date number two"

I tried hiding behind queues but failed miserably for he had already seen me before I even noticed him. He ran towards me and calling out to me. I was forced to halt anf hear him out and I prayed that there was an excuse that could set me free from his presence

Baby!!  which sound more like "Bebe"
"I have been called you ever since but your phone is not connected, my heart is just doing me somehow "

Inner thoughts : we just had to bump into the dog😩

It must  be some sort of breach  in reception, keep trying they'll rectify it" I replied hoping to finally escape him

Inner thoughts :🙄Tell the man you blocked him period!!

Why are you not nice to people? " I retorted back and of course also very loud ;!

Mr sekirit was shocked upon hearing that

Chineke mee!!!  Bebe I'm very nice, I'm the nicer than all my friends. I use buy gehs plenty plenty things, like sharwarma. Talk to me, what do you want that I cannot got it for you"

"I'm so sorry, I wasn't referring to you, I actually came to buy things for my mom. We'll see some other time inugo"I said

" hewu mmimi, asa m how can you be leaving my feelings for you? Just see the way I leave my babe, Emmm, sorry my cousin just to feel your presence, just come and spend some quality time with me kwanu. You won't regret it (sounded more like rigirrate it)

Inner thoughts : why exactly are we still here? 😠, didn't you hear what he said. His babe!! His cousin are you deaf!!?

I'll be going now okay, we'll spend time together another day. I hurriedly placed my phone on my ear and started faking a conversation.

"Yes mom, I'm done. I'm on my way yes very fast yes!! " I turned to face him with a fake disappointment written all over my face " my mother wasn't me home, I can't keep her waiting "

Ngwanu next time baby, catch you later"

Inner thoughts : finally!!!

I turned and started walking out from him, hoping that our paths would never cross again

Inner thoughts : You do know that he is still standing there right?

How would you know? " I replied

Inner thoughts : I can sense it

I turned my head to see him looking at my butt and licking his lips in a very disturbing manner. He plunged a finger into his mouth, then removed it and flung it in the air. I was repulsed by all his actions.

" Next time we see him, I'll let you spill the words in your mind deal? "

Inner thoughts :😌😌😌Gladly, my words would sting his blank brain

I was almost at the gate of our house when I also bumped into "the miser", How on earth was I going to escape from this one again?

He approached with a half smile

Inner thoughts : Why is he looking like a deranged cock, is he also saving his smile? His face has a semblance to that of a goat undergoing constipation "

This time laughter croaked in my throat.

"Hello dear, long time no see!!? You know I only came here because I was told that there's as store that sells match sticks at a cheaper rate, I had no idea that I would bump into you. You know the economy is so hard and the cost of wood has risen, so I've decided to cut cost and reduce the number of sticks of match sticks that I use, of course I would have opted for a lighter but it is just not economical"

Inner thoughts :😲😲😲😲

It's  nice to see you t... "I was cut off by

"You live in this neighborhood, how wasteful. The house on my street are so much cheaper, the only problem we face is flooding but it's nothing that a cheap rainboot won't fix"

Inner thoughts  :😠😠😠now that's enough!!! I am fed up with this castrated peacock dismiss him and his poverty ridden brain. Save match sticks?  Who does that?

Shut up!!  I reprimanded

Excuse me? "

I mean so... " I was about to apologize to him but decided against on it on second thoughts.

"You know what, I am fed up with your stupid ways of saving money, how can you be so stingy even to your own, you made me take a cab home, took my meat just because you want to conserve money from everything, are you not even ashamed of yourself. I bet you don't even go to hospitals when you're sick, you would be cutting cost. Miserable miser!

Inner thoughts : This is the Amaka with whom I am well pleased

I turned away and went into the house bit I could hear as he yelled " I use herbal drugs, they are way more effective and less expensive!"

What a lunatic"!!

After preparing the meal, Ada and I played games to kill time before my date and I dealt with her. I won her severally in the game of "WHOT" that she became annoyed.

The time came for me to leave and  I was  eager to meet whoever it was, maybe he could help me forget the other two day ruiners I had met earlier.

When I got to the restaurant, I noticed that the guy who was always serving my dates and I was not around, so I asked another waiter. Apparently the waiter was the son of the restaurant's owner. He only came to help workers out because he was on break from school.

I was amazed at such humility from that young man and wished that I'd probably see him again.

A text from my date directed me to a table where I was supposed to see him, but I was surprised when I didn't see any man. Instead there was a child in a bent position tying his shoe laces. I wanted to ask him where my date went to but my lips were sealed when he finally looked up to see me.
Oh! " was all I managed to say

Inner thoughts : 😌😌😌this day couldn't have turned out much better. 😂😂😂😂you got yourself a baby man

Keep quiet, would you"

thankfully I wasn't as loud as I usually was.

"Don't keep staring at me sweetie, please have a seat, I know you can't withhold the excitement of having to dine with a spectacular creature as myself" he said winking.

I ended up laughing so hard
How was he still funny with his size,the selfie totally decided me, wow  a dwarf.

For someone so petite he was actually very funny and he had me laughing all through the date. He told me stories of how he had used his stature to deceive a lot people including the police. Sometimes he was picked and made fun of, but he decided to make himself happy and accept who he was the way he is.

If we were to take pictures, you'd be mistaken for the dwarf you know" he started

Inner thoughts : 😂😂😂😂 I love his spirit
Why would i be?  I asked

"Well first, you have to squat to take the picture and I'd be much taller than you"he finished laughing
You know what how about I sit on the ground while you take the picture? It'll make you even taller,"

We went on with that and he was much pleased when he appeared taller.

I  was very sure as I left the restaurant that I had made a new friend . It didn't  matter if had to kneel to hug him, what he lost in height he had in his brain.

I got home very exhausted and went to the chart, I graded him 70% for not being just funny but also for teaching me to accept and appreciate the handwork of God,

As usual a text from David appeared and so did a smile on my face
