I made it to the land of th living today, thank God for
life. Most times we take waking up for granted like it’s our bona fide right. I
reached the office a little after nine just about same time Chris was stepping
out his car. He pampers this car more than a baby. It’s a convertible black Volvo
car. Very rare make of car in these parts. He is a grandmaster when it comes
keeping a car washed, waxed, cleaned. As a matter of fact he is importing his
own trusted cleaning agents from the US, he doesn’t trust the products in
Nigeria. Ifeanyi came in at the same time too like we all timed each other.
Chris doesn’t have a key yet so he has to wait for us even when he is in a
hurry and we are late. It really sucks to him. He is the one delaying molding
the key somehow, just drop the cash and the key will drop. My boss came in much
later. We did some work. He has been planning a South African trip which might
include all of us. When the time came to it, he excluded me. Later on he was
like I should start processing my visa but he isn’t promising anything. I
looked up SA visa application requirement and process. I was waiting for some
sort of go ahead green light. Today that light turned crimson blood red. He
asked me to book a plane ticket to SA for Ifeanyi.
I didn’t quite expect him to
come through about me joining the SA travel team but somehow I felt bad. My mind started playing the devil's
advocate. I remember how on every occasion he has left me out of things that
should naturally seamlessly include me for equity sake. After a while as if realizing
the impact of what he has said, he added “I’m sorry I couldn’t include you. I
tried. Maybe next time” Yeah I feel so much better now. Yeah right. I leached
away that bad feeling from my mind by researching online about ways to think
creatively and come up creative ideas.
I need to start thinking creatively
again like I did back in 2007-8 I need to flex my brain tissue to its limit
profitably. I couldn’t book the flight cuz Ify don’t have his passport with
him. And the day came to an end. Got home Ibe and his wife weren’t around as
usual, neither was my scrabble. I’m guessing they go to Threadstone's house.
Going by their reputation to spoil things, I pity my scrabble. I didn’t know
when they came back cuz I was fast asleep.
