“Laide, you are so emotional I told you to let David’s issue slide or is there more to this than I thought”
“Peju, see! you can’t understand how I esteem this guy in my heart, he is just the man I have planned forever with I love him so much.”
“What do you plan to do now since the relationship is complicated? My candid advice for you is to waka pass(walk away) let it go no man is worth dying for Laide didn’t I gist you what Marcus did to me after five years of dating let me remind you incase you forgot.”
“Pej bae, tomorrow is your big day I am thinking of celebrating you in a special way just tell me a wish and I fulfil it instantly”. Marcus requested. “Marcus, boo you know that tomorrow is my birthday and I want you to celebrate me loudly on your social media handle post me on your facebook,tweet me, instalive, Whatsapp and lots more. Its been five years of dating now and you have never not even for once uploaded my pictures indicating that I am your bae, my friends are saying you are not man enough I really need you to man up for me tomorrow”.
“Errrrrhn! upload what? I think we talked about this already I do no social media show on my relationship I want a low-key relationship for some personal reasons”.
“You still haven’t told me about that personal reasons I guess this is supposed to be a date it takes two to tangle, You don’t share your reasons with me and you expect me to accept it just like that. Hell! No” This time Marcus was already raising his voice like a ruckus was about to kick start. “Watch your tongue Peju” “Marcus, see its like this relationship is on the way to the sea and this boat of love could capsized at any moment but I want you to understand that I love you and don’t forget I had always been there for you”. “So what? That you paid my school fees for three sessions, that you clothed and fed me all through our days on campus and that your uncle got me this job any lady can do that”.
“Marcus I never mentioned all of the above you did please just put a smile on my face tomorrow that’s all I request”
“Gbas” , Marcus gave Peju a very hot slap.
You reading this now is Peju’s request too much to ask relationship coach I think we need to talk on this, lemme comman and be going.
“Marcus you slapped me, I don’t think what I have said demands a slap no problem because of love I forgive you”
“Peju, it is over between us let’s go our separate ways I cease to be your boyfriend today June 12 ****” Marcus finally bursted out.
Wait fess what just happened now after slap she said she still loves him dear readers this kind love is what I call dhdhdjjdjf Love😁.
Peju gallivanted around the living room she was misbehaving like what did her ears heard now. “Over between us Marcus for what? I didn’t say this to begin a quarrel so why are you taking everything this serious?” “Wow! You are seeing this as some kind of joke right I mean my words per bit capital letter it is OVER!”
“Marcus, am not seeing this funny any longer don’t worry let’s not do the social media coverage again lets just pretend this conversation never took place” Peju said looking confused.
“You think this is some kind of comedy shey hello Peju Ogunmakin please get out of my house it is over”.
“This isn’t funny again” Peju thought, her lifetime investment was this guy and see how he is telling me to go just like that. “Marcus,please don’t do this to us we can talk this out amicably at least we had serious quarrel and you never mention the word over why then is it at this juncture all will be over.”
“If you will excuse me” Marcus walked out on her “Marcus walked out on me this isn’t funny any longer” tears flowed from her glabella endlessly.
Happy birthday to you Peju her friends had come early that day to throw her a surprise party.
As she struggled from her bed she wished no one would wish her a Happy birthday please tell me reader’s what is good about my 28th birthday My boo broke up with me yesterday literally I am single and searching is it now a birthday to be happy about if only my friends knows my present ordeal may be they would have chorused. Sad birthday to you! Yuck Peju just play along don’t spoil the fun.
Kike, Omotara, Damilola, Feyi and three others came with cakes and birthday gifts to celebrate their dear friend.
“Babe, We pray may this year be better than your yester years”They all rained prayers on her.
“Amen” is this year really going to be better or a worse one the sign I saw yesterday is enough to define the new year” she thought.
“So what do you have at home let’s make you something yummy”Kike asked. “I don’t have any thing beef at home you won’t believe I almost forgot today is my day”she lied.
“We brought beef not to worry so we will prepare pepper soup and pounded yam or what do you want to eat just name it we dey ground for today( we are available)” Damilola suggested.
“I will be fine with pepper soup and fried rice you know I don’t want you people for stress” Peju said.
“Very good! In the next forty minutes the meal will be served enjoy your day birthday girl” Omotara said as the three of them headed to the kitchen to do the ministry.
“We didn’t even see Marcus around why is he not here yet” Feyi asked.
“He is fine, he needed to rush down to the office to get one or two things done” She lied.
“Oh! Oh! He won’t dare to come here when it is not that his village people are doing him” Feyi said. “Like I don’t understand what you are talking about Feyi I just told you he went to work what is it about this village people” Peju widened her eyeballs.
“Just take a look at this, Feyi brought out her phone to show Peju how Marcus had been playing hide and seek with her friends life.” “Am I dreaming? You mean Marcus is married with two kids a boy and a girl” Peju questioned. “Not that alone, he made a bet with some of his friends that he will date you. His relationship was based on betting’s and gambling. My friend this is my advice let this guy slide ooo” Feyi said emphatically
“Wait Feyi, when did you see this pictures and videos”
” My dear, I saw it 10pm last night on his facebook and every of his social media handle or did something go wrong between the two of you?”
“it was after the break-up he uploaded it” Peju sobbed like a baby. “You are crying is it that serious and you still haven’t told me the genesis of the break up”. Feyi patted her as she made her inquiry. Peju took her phone to check her social media account. “What? this guy tagged me and added my pictures saying I am a zombie, its like I need the A.C”
“The A.C is on Peju what’s wrong?” Feyi wondered. “Marcus has killed me see my likes and comment, How do I clear myself from this mess” Peju stretched forth her phone for Feyi to view it “1k likes 802 comments, seriously we need to sue this guy for assault” Feyi buttressed. “Am broken I was so foolish to fall for a guy as Marcus I cursed the day I met him, I cursed the day I said yes to his proposal. My foolishness has made me jinxed and is about to tarnish my image on my social media” Peju said regrettably.
“Just calm down” Feyi pleaded.
“Calm what I am high already and I can take a gun to shoot the asshole Marcus just imagine the mud he dragged my name into after scamming me into a fake love”.
“Please Peju, I understand you don’t like what the present state is but please let’s calm down and handle what is on ground with maturity”
“Okay I am calming down” Peju fidgeted.
“Laide, lets leave the rest na story. Just look at me I am enjoying my life as a single lady even at age thirty I can’t come and kill myself”. “Peju, David hurts me so well but am left with no option than to let him slide thanks for your time”. “Smile small this your face isn’t appearing elegant let’s take selfie”.
“Shola, I think you will like this lady she is my sister’s friend stretching forth his phone to him to have a glance at her picture”.
“Folarin, How many times have I told that I am not interested in any lady in fact I will make myself an eunuch I will honourably stay single than getting married.”Shola responded. “Guy, what’s exactly is your brouhaha for the past six years you and I have been together I have never for once see a female fly perched your door post not to talk less of a lady I mean complete human being come I will have no other option than to believe what people are saying” “Please tell me what they are saying, I really don’t care”. “Are you an impotent?”
“Yes I am, hope you are balanced back everyone has reasons to their standard all still boils down to I am not getting married.”
“You are my friend and we share everything in common which means that your problems are mine too in this house but I really want to know the reason behind this standard of yours.” “Okay, I was eight years old when my step mother molested me for series of years, my academics drooped drastically, every night was a moment of imbalance for me I summoned the courage to conclude that I will never get married if all women were like my step mum. “Hmm,I understand your ordeal but we don’t judge the whole human race by one man’s mistake.All women are not the same person”
“So tell me what scale of measurement will prove to me the difference as a matter of fact anyone in the feminine race is devilish and callous they are the same”. “Please give me breathing space” Shola replied. “I won’t stop until you change I am your best friend its my obligations to tell you the truth” Folarin responded with a bug frown.
Few weeks later, It was weekend Peju made her way through to the mall to get some stuff for the new week. She just got promoted in her place of work as the human resource officer literally adding more work load on her. She picked up needed groceries to return back to her car she took the exit door. Shola was about to enter through the glass tinted door of the mall when he bumped into Peju for the first time in his life after his past ordeal he felt a goose bump on him. “Good day” Shola said in smiles. “Thanks,Good day” Peju responded absent minded ir was obvious she had never met him before. “I am Shola, please can I know you better” “Oh! I am Peju,its my pleasure meeting you” “Can we be friends?” Shola emphasized. “Friends with no attachment I guess” Peju said firmly. “Sure” “Okay” The duo exchanged contact to begin the journey of friendship they shook hands together.
“Folarin, This Peju lady is one in a million she is just a true friend anyone would love to be with” Shola said beaming in smiles. “Finally you are in love, I am so happy for you at least you would prove bad belle people wrong” Folarin replied. “What’s this one talking about now? Did I mention to you that I love her all I said was that her company is loveable” Shola said amidst smiles “Hmmmm, Do you think I don’t know all those tricks we guys use. This one you are doing is called Theorem 1 of lovey dovey journey.” “Let me be Folarin I just told you the truth and if you don’t believe it then all the best for you………..” Just in time Shola’s phone rang you guessed right. The talk of the angels it was Peju’s call. Folarin knew she was the one he bursted into laughter. “If you will excuse me” Shola said grabbing his phone like a baby. “Hello, How are you doing today” Shola. “I am good” Peju responded “I was just about calling when your call came in” “Oh! I see” Peju replied “Can we have an hangout together today later in the evening” “Hmmmmn! The exact reason for my call I can tell you are in spirit” The duo laughed hysterically over the phone. “Let’s meet at Item 7 by 4:30pm” “Valid”.
The call came to end………
Few days later, “Why am I having this feeling that I just been hateful for no reason” Shola soliloquized. I am beginning to have an emotional chemistry for Peju but I just can’t forget what happened to me in the past I think I need help. I need to talk to an emotional coach about this before it escalate my psychology. Shola drove to the emotional consultancy office around his location. He explained his past ordeal to the consultant which happened to be a young man with a radiant smiles any man could discern that this man had what anyone could call Joy in his heart. “Having heard all you’ve said at first I want to celebrate your courage to share this with me as that the first step to true healing from any emotional trauma is to open up,The reason why you still harbour it in your heart is because you didn’t let go of the past hurt and trauma. The only one capable to help you out on this is the healer you must have heard about him as the provider or as a protector etc. The same man is the healer he heals not only cancer,fibroid, elephantiasis etc he also heals emotions and past hurt the man of Calvary still heals hurt Jesus his is name, Come unto me all ye that are burden and heavy laden and I will give unto rest. He replaces our hurts with his rest”. Mr.Johnson prayed with Shola after he gave his life to Christ. The second session was the real talk on Peju. “Mr Shola, Do you love this young lady or is it just emotions” Shola blushed endlessly all his life he never said it upfront about his love to any lady. “Yes I love her really” “Can you give her a call to come over here” Mr Johnson questioned. “Okay sir” In about twenty minutes later, Peju came in Mr Johnson also led her to Christ no doubt the two of them were misandrist and misogyny only Jesus could really help them both.
The next day, Shola wore a turkey shirt with a well ironed plain trousers and an Italian pair of shoes he was going to propose to Peju the love of his life after he found Christ. Peju received Shola’s call that he was on his way to her apartment she rushed in to wear something covered. She opened the door to meet the shock of her life Shola came with a band of instrumentalist. “Whose birthday is it today” she asked in amusement “Our birthday party”Shola responded. “Smiles, You and whose birthday” “Let’s leave story for story tellers Peju I love you and I want yo journey with you in marriage please be the pepper in my spaghetti and thread in my needle” “God! Yes I will”
The End……………
Misandrist and Misogyny reading this don’t judge the whole human race by one man’s error accept the love of Christ and let go of their flaws your healing is near by so doing. Blessed art thou
Can you welcome someone beside you with clapping ovation as we welcome our guest speaker to the podium.
Good day teens, I am Ronke Gold the speaker for today before the lectures I have a story to share with you all. Ronke Gold a well-known emotional intelligence consultant and woman right activist, married.Speaking at “Get sense conference for teenage girls and youth”.
The digital camera ran across the hall as teenagers in the hall had high expectations well seated ready to learn from her.
The story began………………. My mother was a seamstress a young widow, as the first child of my parents I understood what suffering was,my torn uniform, my bad sandals and tattered school bag is enough to tell you that my family belonged to the low class citizen in the country. Most times I would have to beg for food from my friends or neighbors when my mum couldn’t satisfy my needs.
I remember an incident that took place when I was in primary three,I stole my best friends lesson fee to eat that’s was how pathetic my case was donkey years.
I was so young with the oval body shape,timid,bright and adorable during my primary school days I was so tender and loved by everyone. In Junior secondary school two I heard and understood the word”Valentine Proper”.
I was naturally this shy girl that was naive and anxious at the same time, Valentine didn’t make sense to me at first I thought it was just a day to wear red and white.
“Today is valentine will you be my val” A masculine voice spoke boldly from behind “Val?”I stood in awe Lucky handsome as we fondly call him aside from the fact that he was good looking he also had big brains Sss One the crush of every female in the Junior classes I heard some senior girls too are trying to get his attention.
I Remi Gold I was marveled,why would a whole big brain and handsome boy approach me to be his “Val”.
“What is the meaning of ‘Val’ senior Lucky” I replied beaming with smiles
“Val is a day to show love to your partner boyfriend to girlfriend you nice time, catch some fun and also exchange gift” Lucky responded with a romantic voice.
“Alright that’s good I think the understanding of Val is good to me,Do you want me to just be your val or your girlfriend” I looked south west after saying these word I blindly as myself if this was Remi Gold or something else was upon me.
“Remi Gold, I want to make it official.I have been observing you in this school and I must confess you are the sweetest thing that ever happened to me after st.louis sugar,you are the bone inside my fish,you are the belt on my trouser I love you more than my mum and siblings. I love your physique and pink lips so adorable, I love your accent and soprano voice I like you and can you be my girlfriend.Lucky concluded.
“Awwwwn! Yes I accept the offer” Ronke responded blushing like fried pepper.
“Let’s catch up later in the day? I have a gift for you”Lucky emphasized. “Okay” I stood as a log of wood beaming with smile a whole me the most handsome boy came to approach me.
In the evening, I ran home to get my uniform changed to something you can call sexy due to my family low background I didn’t have a red or white gown, I wore my old green given to me by aunty solape our neighbor last two years for Easter celebration. For the first time in the last three weeks I stood by the broken mirror of our house to behold myself intently after looking good beyond our family present status quo I dashed out.
I stood under the tree where Lucky concluded we would be meeting,I got there earlier under the shade I heard a whistling sound of a car behind me I turned to look around and guess who it was.
Lucky’s father had so many cars, his parents had travelled abroad for weeks his driver drove him here.
“Come in”Lucky said giving hand gesture for me to hop into the car. I hopped in and zoom his driver drove why do he just give me the gift under the shade why must he carry me away.I kept mute as the timid girl I was so as not to appear like a bad girlfriend.
The car drove to a snug,cuisine apartment the security man flung the gate open.
“Ronke, welcome to my house” Lucky said licking his lips
I was floored at the sight of the exterior wall decoration of the house. Deep down in me I asked God why he was mean to my family.
Lucky held my hands to take me in,my thin hands flung in his masculine hands he took me into their house and I was extremely flabbergasted at the figure of the house. Lucky took me into his room I was still so foolish to ask why we didn’t stop at the sitting room.
I sat on his bed in his room casting glances in his room.
“Here is your drinks and small chops bon appetite” Lucky said as he dropped the tray on the table in his room adjacent Ronke.
“Thanks” I replied I have never heard small chops all my life the only snacks I could up recollect in the whole stall chop is the regular puff-puff pastry all others in the chops bowl was so strange to me some triangles some squares.
“Here is your gift?” Lucky said stretching out a box
“Thanks a bunch”
Few minutes later,
I stood up to tell Lucky I was about to take my leave
“Where are you going?” Lucky asked lividly.
“Please I need to be home now”.I said like a baby
“Home!How about my gift?”
“Am sorry I couldn’t afford one” I responded.
“Then you must do a change by barter for you not having a gift give me what you have on you”
“How do you mean”
“Nothing in this world is freebies valentine is give and take” Lucky said “So what can I give you that is worth your gift, you have cars,houses and wealthy materials just tell me what you want” In my mind I thought he would as for a card or something menial.
“You”
“Me? am all yours already” I said foolishly
“I want to sleep with you let’s do mummy and daddy play”Lucky said boldly “Haaaa!I can’t do that it is not ideal we are children” I sounded resolutely.
Lucky dragged me to his bed and slept the hell out of me for about five minutes stretch he was on me.
I stood up from the bed all wet with blood I was defiled.
“Am so sorry Remi valentine is give and take, I had to do this”Lucky said.
“No problem Lucky, You observed I was one of the poorest student in the school before carrying out this plan. I had nothing to give you that would be worth the gift you gave me,Thanks for your gift anyways and thanks for defiling me now I understand why the Valentine’s colour is red. It means a dangerous day,an hazardous day a costly day, Thank you for helping me realise the true definition of Valentine” Ronke carried her box of gift home.
I unwrapped the gift it was an empty box I wept more and more.I was crushed and broken. Mrs Ronke Gold concluded her story as she began her teaching.
This is “GET SENSE CONFERENCE” I understand we all have a guy in our schools we crush on and we imagine forever with him,some of dream daily about him.
The first thing I want to show you in this conference is the definition of Crush – A short lived and unrequited love or infatuation.
Let me impress in your heart as youth that any love that crushes you is folly(foolishness) any love that makes you reduce or compress isn’t love but a Cove(cave) you are endangered in a cave anything can happen there.
I, Remi Gold was there before I treaded in the path of death because after Lucky sexual intercourse I got pregnant out of wedlock though the premature baby died I survived because God wanted me to use my story to correct you seated here about the true meaning of love. She brought her face wipe as streams of tears rolled down her cheeks.
Some teenage too were all in tears as said those words.
Love gives even if it doesn’t receive in return, Love doesn’t mean trade by barter.
Love isn’t playing with your foolishness just like the way Lucky toyed with my virginity.
Love isn’t just said it is best expressed as a lifestyle, I love you may not be I care.
I lived in guilt all my years until I met another lover that showed me what love really meant I met him in my final year in school he took me to an (Calvary) I told him who I was and he gave me a gift exchange I gave him my guilty life he gave me his life, He defined love to me as selflessness and made the valentine red colour makes a gold sense to me, Its a day of true love to all.
“Who among you seated here would like to meet this man I met years ago on this beautiful valentine day I can bet he his going to make your day colourful.” Ronke Gold said amidst smiles All hands were up as the youth eagerly stretched their hands up.
“Very good, His name is Jesus beyond the gift any guy out there can give to you I present the best Valentine gift in my possession to you”Ronke Gold said.
“This gift package isn’t empty like lucky’s gift box, Jesus has it all in a box as I bring this session to a close the question is what is your worth to enjoy Valentines day with a guy at the eatery during the day and in the next three month night he is retrieving his investment from your body? Valentine is like every other normal days but the difference is this your destiny can be marred or made better in this same day.”
You want to give your life to Christ just say this word.
“Jesus I know you love me be my groom and I will be your bride now and forever”
After the prayers the teenagers clapped their hands to celebrate Mrs.Remi Gold for the powerful session.
Dear readers, what is valentine definition to you, lust,love,cove? To some it means a day to show off your prowess of love to others aside dating them. Everyday requires us to love everyone heartily the life of Christ is the life of love.
Today is valentine I imagine the amount of our young girls that would be defiled on the bed of immorality this day all in the name of val or a menial gift.
This valentine be valid, be valuable you are worth more than gold and silver your body isn’t an offering for some unreasonable guys.
