He told me he was coming to Nigeria in about two months
time and he would like to see me ok oh no wahala*. Two months came and passed
he was not calling me. Only for one day
he called again then said sorry that the mayor of his town died (how that one
take concern me? na your papa or your business partner?)*
I said no problem and
told him sorry about the loss of his mayor. Lol he said he was coming to
Nigeria for Easter. Easter came and passed he did not come or call, only for one day as I was coming from a church
function I got a call and it was him he was finally in Nigeria he said he was
going to be around for a week (in my mind I was like who cares?). He made
arrangements to come visit me the next day, which was a Sunday.
That faithful Sunday came!
Finally I get to see 'doctor' he came to my house with a friend of his (oh my! oh
my!) his friend was well, not a hunk but he was handsome, well dressed, nice
car (lol) but he was a Benin boy. Lmao I must marry a Yoruba man oh. So I
invited them in, offered them drinks but I kept looking at the friend. Doctor
was not even talking his friend was the one that kept the room alive ‘doctor’
just sat there drinking mango juice like he has never had it in his life. When
they were leaving his friend promised to bring him again in my mind I was like
this doctor must be a child that people have to do things for oh.
Monday afternoon doctor
called me that he would come visit me the next day… Story! He did not come he
said that because of the rain the cab driver could not come pick him (hmm 'doctor', simbi must look like a fool to you. A cab driver in Lagos Nigeria not
come and pick you because of rain. Ah ah and you are a pastor oh. Diaris God
oh!) Well, he did not come only for Mr. Wole to call me that he 'doctor' and his
Aunty were coming to see my parents over the weekend. (All these one doctor
had stopped calling me oh but they wanted to come and see my parents help me
ask him for what oh.) I called Mr. Wole the next day and told him they should
please not come see my parent cos the doctor in question was acting up plus I
don’t think I’m interested in him.
I did not hear from doctor
till the day he was going back. He said he ran out of money na wa oh* just one
week you spent in Nigeria you ran out of money to the extent you could not
afford N200 airtime hmm (all these oyinbo* Nigerians are broke a.. oh so
you want to marry me and starve me uncle doctor? Wait oh coming to think of it,
doctor did not even bring a gift when he was coming. Smh*) well I told him
sorry he said his dad fell ill too so all those things destabilised him lol
He left and I’ve not heard
from him since then. His aunty was trying to explain his actions that he could
not manage the light situation and traffic in Nigeria but please, you were in
Nigeria before you relocated.
That was it!
