You will never believe what happened to me today. I still cant get over it. I went to the supermarket to pick something to eat before the conference i went for. As i was walking down the aisle, i noticed this woman starring at me. I looked at her and kept walking to the front counter to pick bottled water and gala. As i picked them and turned, i found the same woman right behind me! I tried to show her some love, so i smiled and said "hi". Then i went on to get a canned coke. Can you believe the same woman followed me? I was getting a little bit nervous and mad because she was following me without saying a thing. But i tried to stay friendly, i just said "hi" again. She finally responded and said, "I am sorry for starring but you look just like my youngest son. We just buried him two weeks ago". God forbid i shouted not me but i felt silly for getting mad as i expressed my sympathy to her. She said she was fine as she knows that her child is with the Lord. She then asked me to do her a favour which i obliged. She said "I'm a bit sad that my child never said goodbye to me before passing on". She asked me to get in line behind her so when so when she's leaving the store I should say "goodbye mum" so she could have some sense of closure. Though her request was weird, I however agreed to grant it. So as she collected her bags from the cashier and walked away, I said "bye mum". She turned and said "bye my son". When the cashier calculated my stuff, she said the total was N28,750. I said what!!! Can you tell me how a N70 bottled water, N50 gala and N100 canned coke equals N28.750? She said "your mum said you are paying for hers too". My mum? I shouted. That woman is not my mother ooo!!!. I quickly rushed out just in time to see the woman approaching the parking lot. I ran after her and was screaming..."excuse me, excuse me!!!" Like Donald Trump. She started running. I caught up with her just before she was able to close the door of her car. I kept on pulling and pulling her leg, just like I am pulling yours now! You too like gist sef. See as you serious dey read. Hope you are enjoying your day?
