Everyday my heart dey beat like generator wey no get oil. That Tuesday, rain fall for morning. Everywhere for Mile 1 dey mud. I dey inside my shop, dey clean phone screen when I hear voice. "Ugo, you dey?" Na Onyinye. She stand for my door, umbrella for hand, school bag for back. But her face no fine. She dey cry. "Onyinye wetin happen?" I jump stand. She bring out her phone.

"Onyinye, no cry. I go fix am. Today today." She look me with that eye. That eye wey dey make me no dey sleep for night. "Onyinye, I no get money now," she talk. I laugh. "Who talk about money? You be my queen. Your problem na my problem." For two hours, I dey work. Onyinye sit down for my small stool, dey watch me. Rain dey fall for roof. No light, na my small power bank I use. I fix the last screw. Press power button. Light come on. Wallpaper show - na her picture with graduation gown. "Ahhh! Ugo! E don on!" She shout. She hold the phone like gold. All her files still dey. Project, pictures, everything. She hug me. Tight. Her hair smell like coconut oil. My heart wan comot for my chest. For Mile 1, for afternoon, with rain dey fall, Onyinye dey hug me. "Ugo, you be good man. Why you no get girlfriend?" I wan tell am say na because I dey wait for her. Two years I dey wait. But fear catch me. I smile. "I dey wait for my queen." She comot from hug, hold my hand. "Your queen go come. And she go be lucky girl." When she waka comot, with umbrella, phone for hand, I sit down for my stool. My shop small, rain still dey fall, but my heart dey fly. Tomorrow. She go come tomorrow. And tomorrow, I go tell am say na she be the queen of my heart.
