Episode 3 – “Catch Me If You Can”

‘’The mercies of the Lord will be with me’’ these words kept repeating in my head because this week is full of it’s own ups and down, asides planning the rest of the week, I almost had a fall out with a friend because I was insensitive to his situation; before I divulge all the details, lemme first sit and chill with my sharwarma and pulpy , omo this combo will be forever be on my snack up list… gist be flooding my head and I can’t wait to tell you because you are my only companion .

The week started as usual, still processing how I wanna spend this week without thinking of man, but then again I have this write up I needed to work on, so I did that and I think I got a good review on that from friends. I have been getting myself really occupied lately just to get my mind off things that might get me worried, so what’s better than to while away time with something productive,tell me my people ? Especially if money is involved, just count me in, I’m all yours for the soft girl era dream. Girl had to be ready to face reality cuz’’owo ti ku waso ‘’ ( slang for brokenness). MTN too also came with their annoying data tariff rate , so many unforeseen battles against netizens , from trying to adapt to fuel subsidy removal,to hike in federal varsity fees, God abeg o , this country is running mad .
So basically right now , I’m not even bothered if a guy is really interested in following through with me. If he is ready to put as much effort as I put , I’m ready to put on my lover girl mask. As I dey like this , I don’t wanna take the risk of trusting man wey no wan reason my matter. You can as well give me ten reasons why I should trust man ? , men and lies , you gerrit.
