FINALY, school is resuming officially on Monday, and the sad parts that I’m not ready. It’s as if the global financial crisis is residing in my pocket. All my sources of income are blocked. Even the people I thought were never going to be broke are in the red. My dad is whining, my elder ones are claiming that they are also broke but can manage to afford to take their chicks to Ghana and obudu for Val’s day (Na God go show una!!! Thank God for free wireless though)
Thankfully, I’m going back on valentines day (yep I have to save costs and be sharp men…) and I’m going to lay low for the time being, u know avoid the leeches and ball breakers who feel that because I happen to live in Lagos and in a mid class estate (una forget say na my papa house and no be me buy am!), I’m supposed to breathe out money or those that assume my dad (who is retired by the way) is a consultant to all the oil companies.
I’ve been receiving calls from some annoying girls who only remember you exist in times like this (Val’s day, resumption, their birthdays…) and are already asking me when I’m resuming so they can come and collect the goodies from Lagos! Someone called me yesterday…
Scarletboy: Hello, who is this?
Madam: hmm… how far, so u don’t have my number again hen!
Scarletboy: (see me see trouble, when you no deh call nko!) aah no oh it’s not like that, ehm you see my I changed my phone cos it was giving me some trou..
Madam: (interrupting) ha, big boy! So you have changed your phone.
Scarletboy: (wondering why I had to use that lame lie) yes it’s a noki..
Madam: so when are you resuming, hope it’s before the 14th cos Ur my Val oh!
Scarletboy:(haa, see me see trouble) ehem, what about jimoh (not real name)
Madam(hissing) forget about that fake boy jo, he has been whining about no money and stuff, in short I’m going to dump him when we resume
Scarletboy: it’s the same everywhere oh, I’m also broke
Madam: aah, you self
Scarletboy: serious oh, I’m not even sure that I’m coming to school this year. I’m thinking maybe music since everyone’s making it these days
Maddam:so you self you are also saying this ehn, I’m practically giving myself to you on vals day and your telling me this
(Now pause, for you to understand this, I have to explain one or two things, first I liked her in our 100level when I was still young and innocent but she preferred a guy in final year, secondly she wasn’t as fine as before and finally she still thought I had feelings for he, she was so wrong)
Scarletboy: (throwing all caution to the wind) come, come, come!!!! What is your problem? why are you telling me this now, why are you bugging me and just being a nuisance? why is it that it’s when you need something from me that you remember I exist. Look if its cos of this you called me just hang up.
And after a long pause, she did.
See me see trouble ehn, this is not the first call I’ve received this week, and none of these gals are not my girlfriends nor friends with benefits if u get my gist, for those of you who don’t a friend with benefits according to my very good friend J is someone with which you enjoy a symbiotic or mutual thingy. Now it can be that she’s brilliant and can put u through some things or she’s a “cheerful giver” and is ehem… generous with some assets or something but sha there has to be something in return. So if I decide to be a nice guy and feed someone on Val’s day, I will now become a mugu or maga or in their mind they have played a fast one on me TUFIAKWA!!!
Now I’m not stingy, in fact I’m very generous and I’m not nasty, but some people just like bringing out the side I’ve tried so hard to suppress!!! I have to change my strategy in this final year…. Abeg all you leeches stop bugging me
P.S
My iPod is back from the dead, I just decided to put it on and it came on. I’ve been using it for like a week now and so far so good… maybe my prayers have started working, thank you GOD!!!
