Sidom dey look...

ok so... I met a guy. A nice guy.

Two months ago I went to the monthly prayer meeting to pray and on my way out bumped into an old school friend. Really excited to see me again she told me about her new blackberry group strictly for singles! She added me to the group and straight away a tall, dark and handsome member of the group added me to his personal blackberry list. Na wah o! After all this years of praying and binding all my ancestors sharp sharp or as my pastor would say ’suddenly!’ my situation looks like it would change. This love that I found did me ‘gish gish’ no be small. One time one time we don arrange evening date; two time two times he don invite me to his house; three times three times...[common reader face ya front I no be harlot ... ] I nearly commit sha!

Anyway this love rocked my boat o. He was always calling me to come and hang out at his place. Men! I don hammer be dat. A Nija guy that always wants you in his house all the time?! I don become madam be dat now! Anyway 3-4 times a week I dey my bobo’s house. Gate man sef know me. Anytime I come, from gate him dey shout ‘welcome ma!’ even before he see me sef. My bobo dey work for oil company and yet is very humble! I am telling you very down to earth. He has just come from Jand and been in Lagos for only four months. Anyway my bobo and I are bonding very well! Iam telling you! Even though I was a Man U fan [for mouth only o! I no sabi di game I just claim di team] and he is an Arsenal fan I watch the footie with him. I even don tell am I can be convinced to become an Arsenal fan. He explains everything about footall and formular 1 to me. When I ask him if the camera man is in the car with the driver taping the race ... he press my nose and tell me say no. This love is sweet o. But sha the other day he said he was going out with the boys I look him hard and then he call me from the bar and tell me to join them. He is committed and we are together like two hands clapping!

But come o! Things have taken a turn in the past few weeks, gate man dey look me funny, now he says I must to call oga before I knock gate otherwise him no go open gate for me! Him Good Morning no dey loud again like before before. If I check am well this new behaviour is since Sallah when every weekend now my bobo is out on the town without me. All these friends I no like them o! I don talk my own!! But my bobo is loyal to me die. He even came back from Church the other day and told me a girl at church walked up to him and told him direct she liked him and wanted to be friends. What an honest bobo my man is he even told me. I still don’t like this going out all the time o! These Lagos gals I no like dem! I drove by his house 2 nights in a row and a jeep seems like it is renting the front of house now adays. Hmmm anyway sha, me? It is that his new neighbour I am eyeing... since the girl moved in no question she get she no dey come knock my bobo door ask am. Me I don plan for her the next time she knock this door I go let her know say the number on the door says ‘number three’ not ‘google’!! Ha! Me? I don dey fear o! Things are no more looking the way they were. The outings are becoming too frequent and they don’t call me to join them at the joints anymore. Furthermore e be like say that Jeep wey rent space outside him house don get co tenants. Lagos gals kilo de! The other day him just dey press blackberry any how. I come ask am who you dey text? He tell me say him friend from church he told me about. Ha!!! I weak and I don tire so I call my pastor.

‘’Pastor what do I do...I want a man of God who knows not to cheat. Should I confront him?’’

PASTOR: No!

''Will I find a guy in Lagos that does not cheat?’’

PASTOR: NO!

‘’Should I break up with him?’’

PASTOR: No!

‘’Can you give me prayer points to drive the other girls away from his life?’’

PASTOR: No! You are not yet married to him so you have no authority to do that! You can only pray the will of God be done in your life’’

‘’Then Pastor tell me! Tell me like your daughter!! what should I do?!’’

PASTOR: Sidom dey look!
