[Episode 12] My Days in Trixwin by Kelvin Ossai
These people that use to work 8 days a week didn't open their store today. Na story them dey find oh. Truly, the world is not revolving around anybody. You will have your plans and nature will have another plan for you.
I felt like burning down the shop. These people are combined devil oh. I was so confused that I sat down there with tears accumulated in my eyes. I was still lost in my world when a call started forcing my phone to vibrate. (It has been on silent mode from the church). I looked at the screen like who be this one again? Funny enough, it was Favour. She did even allow me to talk.
**********************
Me: Hello.
Favour: Good morning, happy Sunday, hope you went to church. I will join you shortly. Bye bye. (she ended the call).
Me: (Talking to my self) which kind wahala be this na? How you go call person, you nor go allow am talk. I stood up to go back home. For sure, I can't kill myself. I got home, cooked and ate. I called James to tell him what was happening. He picked at the second ring.
James: Who tell you make you call me?
Me: Wahala dey oh!
James: Wetin happen?
Me: Those bet9ja short workers nor open make them give me my money oh!
James: You dey joke abi?
Me: Why I go dey joke na?
James: Nawa oh!
Me: I just tire and Favour don call me already say she dey come.
James: You know wetin you go do?
Me: No.
James: Shey you get 6k for your account?
Me: Yes but na for textbook.
James: Mumu withdraw the money. If you collect that one tomorrow you go use am replace am.
Me: Na true oh! Thank you Solomon.
************************************
I ended the call, picked up my ATM card and zoomed off first bank. On getting to first bank, the queue there was something else. I trekked back to Union Bank. That one self nor dey pay at all. I out of no option walked back to first bank. I was the last person in one of the Primary 1 lines when I saw two ATM machines not in use. I decide to give it a try. As I was walking there, I heard two people say ''Bros e nor dey pay".
I just kept them quiet and continued my journey. I got to the ATM machines and made a withdrawal quest in the first machine and as expected, it didn't pay me. I tried the second one and it played me, (see luck oh!). I withdrew only 5k as banks do seize 1k as if it's their own. I do always recharge from it sha.
I walked back like a boss and the next question I heard was "Guy e pay?", I said Yes. Before I could say Jack Robinson, Jack Robinson too long self. Before I could say Kiss Daniel, some guys have already formed primary 3 line there. I just smiled and went home. At least I have a little money now.
I got home and took my bath to wash off all the evil sweats that enveloped me when I was in my confused mode.
I was already dressed like Christiano Ronaldo (That outfit he wore back to Portugal after winning Euro16 in France.) I've already bought something I felt was close to it (He is my idol, you know). I combed my hair (punk hair style) pointing to the left side of my face just like Marcos Rojo of Man Utd. I also had the sides of my hair designed with lines.
The right side had the lines Christiano Alvaro Santos Ronaldo (Football lovers, that is his full name) had that time while the left side had that of Paul Labile Pogba.
I was set for the journey. I took 4k from the money and kept 1k at home in case those Idiots don't pay me my money tomorrow I will still have extra cash at hand. I checked time and it was already 2:22pm. I went to watch the second half of an EPL match. The match ended by 3:20pm. Yes. I've been able to while away my time. I called Favour and she said she was already at my door. I refused to believe it until I got home 5 minutes later to meet an Angel in the form of a human standing at my door. She was putting on a blue gown that my mind had to tell me- this girl must wear white gown because of me(I hope you understand). I was still lost in my trance when her voice jolted me back.
*********************
Favour: Will you keep looking at me instead of opening this door?
Me: Na my house you dey go abi na Trixwin.
Favour: nor vex.
Me: For how long have you been here?
Favour: About 8 minutes now.
Me: You look outstandingly beautiful.
Favour: Stop oh! Nor confuse my brain now.
*******************************************
I smiled and opened the door. I checked around to see if I was forgetting anything and behold, my earpiece was not with me. I grabbed it, fixed it to my shirt and the next I heard was ''Some people na fine boy sha."
I looked at Favour and her face showed no expression. Did she say that or it was my own imagination?
