Woke up early feeling good. Feeling pumped up. In the
meantime I had a whatsapp chat with Enque. She wants to visit her elder sister
at Ikotun who gave birth a week ago. I asked if I can join her, she didnt mind
but I knew I wasnt going anywhere. Ikotun is freaking far and the traffic is
murderous. I did my devotional. I wanted to attend Sunday school today in
church so I prepared for church early. I had promised to give or should I say
lend Chioma some money today, she asked yesterday. We agreed to meet at my bus
stop anytime after 6:30am since she'll be attending 6:30am mass at the Catholic
Church at my bus stop.
She changed her mind and thinks its terrorism to let me
know. I sent whatsapp messages, no reply. I called countless times before she
picked telling me is still on her way at around 8:39am. Im so pissed off. Now
I've missed sunday school. She came at exactly 8:55am. She knew I was
hyper-pissed off. She apologised and
apologised and apologised but I wasnt really smiling. I went to church
afterwards. It went well. Seriously I need to tame my mind from wandering to
naughty things atimes in church. I answered an altar call for workers. I have
always wanted to work in the church in some way. Today I took a bold step
towards achieving this spiritual goal. We had a workers-in-training class after
service. I kinda feel good. I dropped a sizeable tithe so I feel good about
that too. I took the workers form and went home.
I prayed for alot of things, alot of people, alot
situations, etc. Before I got home I told Enque I cant make it to Ikotun, few
minutes had already passed 2:00pm. And she has been there since 1:00pm. Oh it
wasnt meant to be right from when I made
the plan. I knew the outcome, talk of seeing the future. I rested a bit a home
then my feet found there way to Ceaser's place. Noone was home there. I went
back home rested a little while then hit the road for Spa Supermarket. My
mission was simple. First grab a pizza from Debonnaire's Pizza, next head to
the office to pick up something. I went for sweet and sour chicken pizza,
standard size. That I did. I attacked the pizza like a fresh outta jail guy
whose has been sex tarved for years will attack a woman. Mission accomplished. It
was already late when I got home.

Woke up feeling weak. Then I remembered my saturday run.
I got ready somehow and actually ran. I didnt do devotion. I showered and went
to Ceaser's place. I was feeling so tired. Ceaser's house was on fire sort of.
Relationship issues with his girlfriend. Relationship can be more dangerous
than a nuclear war. We played two rounds of drought/checkers and he beat me as
expected.
Aver suggested we play chess, thats kinda my turf. We
did. Within a few moves I threatened his king which will end in the death of
his his queen. He surrendered by scattering the board to my amusement. Ii didn’t
do much today really. That’s why I didn’t write much either. Could it be that
marsians wiped clean my memory? Well you figure out something

I was up early but I left for office late. Im supposed to
go to school today. I showered dressed up taking my time. No ritual yet again.
In the office I put finishing touches to the letter. Chris was by his phone
waiting for an alert from the bank. The lady had already sent her staff to go
and deposit the money in Chris' account. The alert came and Chris zoomed off
immediately to the wharf.
Just as I wanted to print the demon possessed the
printer. It wouldn’t print. Forces are at work no doubt, is it forces of evil
or good. After so many trials it finally printed one set. I wanted to go with
two versions of two copies each. Now the second version refused to print. After
a while it printed one good copy and one bad copy. The ink has finished.
Its mysteriously amazing to when these sorta things
happen when Im desperate to do something. I muttered ''Devil is a liar'' like
we usually say. This insignificant hiccup cant cripple my mission. I decided to
go to with what I was able to print. Luckily the traffic situation was light. I
wasnt surprised when I got to school and they pulled another surprise. These
people wont cease to amaze me. I couldnt submit the appeal letter cuz I just
learnt that I have to attach some other documents to it. That is just great! I
got back to the office a bit disappointed. I didnt waste any more time in the
office before calling it a day.

I've been up since 5:00am. God woke me up when my alarm
screamed. I've been playing titanium since I woke up. This song is so in my
head these days. I’m sure Ibe thinks Im singing it for him. His skill in
thinking such retarded thought is legendary. More dead and dying bodies of
roaches kept turning up here and there. I ironed, showered and left for work
early. I didnt read my devotional nor pray.
I went to the banks, deposited some cheques and created a
new account for my boss. I got something for the indigenes of my stomach from Shoprite
and back to the office. I wrote the appeal letter. Did some other office
assignments. Yesterday when I booked a ticker for Bar. Adefunke Abiodun, aero
debited my account but the ticket wasnt delivered. I sent them a mail to
reverse the transaction. They want to commit murder making such a mistake on my
head. They replied copying me on an email they sent to interswitch directing
them to reverse the transaction. I’m yet to see that.
I booked another ticket for Ugo and NO I didnt pay with
my mastercard. I went to the bank to pay. Mehn see traffic! First I had to cash
a cheque at one bank before going to another bank to pay for the plane ticket.
Both banks took their sweet time to attend to me. I went back to office. In a
little while I went home. Chris caught a break on his dire need of cash. He
told a lady friend of his who works with CBN, she was like how much is it like
a rich mother asks her spoilt kid. He slyly told her slightly above the amount
he wanted. She said she will take care of it. Chris was so delirious that
evening.
Amara didnt sleep in the house, God knows she slept. Ibe
escorted her out as I came in. By the time Ibe came back, the backdoor has been
locked. His call woke me, I had to go downstairs to open the door for him. Few
minutes later he asked if I had eaten, I mumbled an answer and fell back
asleep.

Im up early. Did my ritual, showered and left for work. I
got to the office very early, never been this early in a long time. For some
reason I have been playing the song 'Titanium' by David Guetta ft Sia over and
over today. I went to Radisson Blu Hotel to meet my boss for some stuff he
needs me to do. Hunger is already working hard in my belly. I called him as
soon as I reached the hotel and he said he will get back to me in a few
minutes. Its so charming and assuring the way he said it but my ear tingled
with disapproval. I know that expression very well. Its means wait for me for
God-knows-how -long and I dont have such luxury of time. I have alot I wanna
do.
I waited for roughly one hour and sent him a text that I
was leaving. He said ok. Then he said I should come. A third text message came
saying I can go. What manner of confusion is this?? Ok Im on my way back to the
office. I went straight to The Place instead, I gotta eat mehn! Ifeanyi was in
the office when I got back. Chris isnt back from Apapa yet, he went to collect
the bill of laden for the car he shipped in. Shit, he's looking for money badly
to clear the car. I feel for him. I sacrificed the food to gods of my stomach
which they accepted whole heartedly. We didnt do much. Another day to deal with
power issue in the office. Ugo came back with some refreshments from the SEC
meeting. We helped ourselves.
I got home to a horrible sight. The lifestyle of the
couple squatting with extended their notoriety to the extent of causing
cockroach infestation in my room. Should I still call it ''my room'' cuz it now
lacks traces of my pampered care. You hardly see a single cockroach before
their arrival. Now we share every inch of the room with roaches. So when I
entered the room, I saw uncountable number of dead bodies. Dead bodies of
cockroaches I mean. Some are not dead yet, they still locked in spiritual
battle with death. It was a serious roach massacre. You can call it roach
genocide. I guess Ibe sprayed a massive amount of insecticide in the room. You
can barely breathe in here.
I just took my bath and sat to one corner with less roach
carcass. I ain’t touching anything. They will clear the mess by themselves, its
so annoying. About ten minutes later Ibe walked in. He asked when I came in, I
told him. Then he asked me, ''You saw the room like this when you came in?'' My
mind retorted in a flash ''No I didnt see the room like this when I came in.
The room was spick and span then I grabbed million dead bodies from the roach
morgue and splashed it all over the room'' The question didnt make any sense to
me. That's a horrible attempt at starting a conversation if that was his aim. The
sight of him sweeping the carcasses was the oddest thing I’ve ever seen, he
never lifts a finger to clean the room before. I just focused on my communion
with my laptop only moving occasionally to give for him. Sleep came in due time and I heed the call.

I didnt wake up on time. I stayed awake from 3 till 5
when I drifted off again and woke up around 8. My boss wont be coming to the
office today, has an avalanche of long meetings to attend mostly SEC related.
He asked me to pick up our office internet modem from his house. By the time I
got to his house, no one was home.
I couldnt get online in the office almost althrough the
day. I designed some charts for Chris on PowerPoint, that was the major thing I
did today. I went to house around three when one of his domestic staff came
home to collect the modem. I closed early. I went straight home.

I woke up on Cherrie's bed. Yes you heard me. More like I
woke up on Cherrie's bossom. What happened?! I went there like a lion and came
out like a kitten. This thing called heart is a complicated sophisticated
unpredictable incredible organ that pumps blood and emotions. Effective
communications is essential for any healthy relationship. I went home showered
and left for work. I neither read my devotional nor prayed.
Today's work was just going from one office to another,
one bank to another, one shopping center to another, etc. I hardly stayed in
the office. Also my boss hired a new driver, today was his first day on the
job. He was chauffering me about. We went to Jubaili Bros to drop a cheque. He
parked outside and I went inside. Earlier he complained that his phone is dead
and needs some juice to power on. By the time I was attended to, after all the
procedural bottle necks, I came out and he was nowhere to be found. Is this a
joke? If it is, it sure ain’t funny at all.
Now my mind is getting crazy creative with possible scenarios.
Did he runaway with the car? No he didnt. I let him buy fuel on his own
unaccompanied. If that was his plan he coulda done it then. Maybe he went back
to the office. My mind was churning out questions, possibilities, scenarios,
etc at the speed that will make light jealous. I check all the car park but
there was no trace of him. I have to let my boss know, so I did. I went on to
finish my task on my own now. I got back to the office still no sign of him. My
main concern was my lunch. I left it in the car that has gone technically
missing. Im so hungry. Dont blame me.
He later called my boss and myself. I answered both calls
and told him to come straight to the office. What happened was that the
security at the premises asked him to park in certain area unknown to me. He
has been there waiting for me to come out. His phone was dead, I couldnt reach
him. He called from a call center eventually. He came back to the office, I ate
my food and left office. I didnt go to school again. I went straight home. I still
haven’t written letter, what the hell is wrong with me?
Got home in anticipation of seeing Cherrie one last time
before she leaves. She has changed her travel date three times now, I wonder.
Ibe left the house a few minutes after I came in. Its as if they leave the house
for me once I enter during the day. What
gives? I called Cherrie, she said she is on her way but feels tired. She came
by after a long while. She came with an act. A very poor acting on her part if
you ask me. She said she is so tired and she is feeling sleepy. I didnt say
anything I just ignored everything like it was nothing. We went back to her
place and the person pretending to be falling asleep at my place didn’t sleep
again. I went back home. Truth is Im glad she is leaving. I slept afterwards.
