Brethren, this cool afternoon I say make I go grocery shopping, so I picked myself up, and walked to the shopping mall which is not far from where I live. The first thing I did was to enter a shop to buy suit, because I remember say the suit wey I get for house don shrink (that’s my story and I’m sticking to it!), and this other suit was just calling my name, ‘sisi come, see me, see me’…Clothes talk to me! So I spent about an hour trying on a few and bought the one wey hala my name pass.
After the purchase I proceeded to Tesco, I picked some onions, no, this one is too expensive so I dropped it and looked for cheaper ones. I made sure everything I bought today was either half price or on sale…you won’t blame me, I don use money wey I suppose use chop take buy cloth, so anytime i’m hungry I will just open my wardrobe, look at the cloth, swallow spit and bellefull.
After buying food stuff oh, I decided I didn’t need a particular shirt so I went back to the shop to return it; thank you Jesus for exchange and refunds in this obodo oyibo. I cannot try this nonsense in Naija. The last time I enter one boutique for warri na so one babe dey follow me round the store like mopol….I felt so uncomfortable and left, as I was leaving this girl use her eyes carry me up and down then fling me comot….since that day I decided no more window shopping in Warri boutiques.
I return the dress finish, oya make I dey go house. It was then I remembered I had to withdraw some money from the cash machine, naim I put card inside, enter my pin. Check balance? Nooooo! that’s too much torment, I don’t want to see the balance.Withdraw cash? Yes!!! and I pressed the button. BLANK. That is the last I remember. Brethren, when I got to my house I checked my pocket and I did not find the money I withdrew, apparently ya babygirl withdrew money, collected atm card but forgot to collect the cash! Who came up with this ATM system in the first place? that card ejects before your cash follows. It is a very stupid strategy. Tell them I said so.
It pained me to lose that money because I know someone else must have taken it out, and someone somewhere is rejoicing for the osho free money they got today *rolls eyes*. I remember my bobo and I have picked osho free money in the park one day after debating whether we go turn to goat or not. It is obodo oyinbo, we did not turn to goats. LOL. I will just console myself with the thought that the person wey collect my own is probably broke and needs it more than I do. Still, it hurts right here *points to heart* sobs. I shall recite the Serenity Prayer throughout today…
Have you lost money before? How did you feel?
Have you found money before? How did you feel? LOL
