My people, you will never believe
what happened to me yesterday
at Sahad Stores in Abuja.
I still can't get over it.
I went to the super market to pick
something to eat and as I was
walking down the isle, I noticed
this man staring at me...
I looked at him and kept walking
to the front counter to pick
bottled water and gala.
As I picked them and turned to
find the same man right infront of
my face!
I tried to give him some of my
love so I smiled and said"Hi!" then
I went on to get a can coke.
Can you believe that same man
followed me through the store?
I was getting a little nervous and
mad because he was following
me without saying anything.
But you know me, trying to be
friendly... I just said "Hi!"
He finaly responded and said,
"I am sorry for staring but you
look just like my youngest son...
We just buried him two weeks
ago".
I felt stupid for getting mad as I
expressed my sincerity to him.
He said he was fine as he knows
that his son is with the lord.
Then he asked me to do him a
favour.
I said "sure, if I can."
He said he was a bit sad that his
son never said goodbye to him
before passing on.
He asked me to get in line behind
him and as he left the store I
should say"Goodbye dad" so that
he could have a sense of closure.
Though his request was weird, I
however agreed to grant them.
So as he collected his bags from
the cashier and walked away, I
said "Bye Dad" he turned and said
"Bye my dear son"
When the cashier calculated my
bill, she said the total was
N11,250!
I shouted "what?... Can you please
explain how a bottle of N70
water, N50 gala and N100 can
coke will sum to such amount?".
She said "your dad said you are
paying for his bill too."
"My dad? That man is not my
father!" I yelled back in response...
I quickly rushed out just in time to
see the man moving towards the
parking lot.
I ran after him and was
screaming "excuse me... Excuse
me!!!"
He started running for his car as
he saw me coming.
I caught him just before he was
able to close his door.
I kept on pulling and pulling his
legs!!!
Just like am pulling yours now!
Chei! Una too like gist, see as you
sidon with seriousness dey read...
Abeg night don do, go sleep joor..
