THE MATCH MAKING

MARGARET AND MIRABEL

Mrs Catherine went to visit her friend Margaret at her house. In the sitting room was Mrs Catherine and her friend Mrs Margaret, They have been friends from their childhood days until their university level even till they both got married. Mrs Margaret has a daughter who had graduated from law school and is currently working in a law firm. Her name was Mirabel, she was tall, fair in complexion and slim. Mrs Catherine and her friend was having a conversation when Mirabel walked in.

Good afternoon Mummy, "She greeted"

Afternoon my Mira baby, How was your day today?" Mrs Margaret answered"

Well, it was very stressful mom, very hectic and am very exhausted and famished " said mirabel"

Don't worry my daughter, I already asked the maid to prepare something for you to eat before your arrival."Mrs Margaret said"

Ohhh, Thank you so much mummy "Mirabel replied"

Uhhhm Mirabel, Meet my very good friend from childhood, Her name is Mrs Catherine Oyedebo, the wife of Mr Barnabas Oyedebo.

Goodday ma, Its so good to see you "Mirabel greeted"

Goodday Mirabel, Nice to see you too "Mrs Catherine responded" You are such a beautiful young girl

Mirabel smiled, Thanks very much for the compliment ma "

Mrs Catherine looked closely at Mirabel from head to toe and observed her as if she was carrying out an inspection on her and then she turned to her mother and said.

So your daughter is now a full grown woman with a beautiful face.

Hahaha you are very funny my friend, she is my only child so therefore I don't joke with her and yea she has grown into a woman. "Mrs Margaret answered"

Thank God for you "Mrs Catherine said"

Mirabel left the both friends to themselves to enjoy while she went to quench her hunger with some food, Immediately she left Mrs Catherine turned to Margaret and asked.

Is she engaged to anyone? she asked

No she is not, Infact I don't think she is dating anyone at the moment, because she doesn't go out on dates, she has never brought a man home, and no male friends visit her too. Infact I have even asked her severally if she is not ready to get married and settle down but she is not even saying anything positive, she is only concerned about work and its giving me a whole lot of concern. "she narrated"

Well, I love your daughter and I think she will be very good and fit for my son, you want your daughter to settle down and start up a family and I also want same for my son.

Besides my son has never said anything about settling down and am worried too, you know he studied outside the counand so i was thinking he will find a beautiful young girl right there to settle down with after school but since his arrival he hasn't said anything neither has he introduced me to anyone. But i have an idea, why don't we match make them, you know introduce them to each other and maybe we can help them fall in love with each other and get married. "Mrs Catherine explained"

Wow.... you are really making sense, if we succeed then we will end up becoming in-laws and not just friends " Margaret added"

Lets do this, Cheers to a new beginning "They both laughed"

After a long discussion Mrs Catherine had with her friend Mrs Margaret, she picked up her bag and drove home to her family with so much Joy and excitement. While driving home she had already started planning how everything is going to be and how well it will go.

Very soon am going to have in-laws and grandchildren just like other women of my age even earlier than some of them. "she thought"

I just hope they are going to fall in love with each other. But what if they end up not loving each other what am I supposed to do then? No no no my son is not blind to see the kind of beauty Mirabel is endowed with so there is no way he wouldn't fall in love with her but just in case the opposite happens well i think i will have to look for a solution to make sure that they end up together as couples. Ohh God, I pray this works. "Mrs Catherine prayed silently in her heart"
