Tales Of My Fatherland

A Paradoxical Reality

"Muah muah muah" as I smacked her lips; Ochuwa I love you, ever since I set my eyes on you; I started feeling a tumble in heart , an unusual sweet sensation like you puked alot of love in it, I will love you till death steals my last grasp for air. I kissed her again, from her lips to her neck and reaching downward towards are her chest.

"Brother Onomoghen" yelled my youngest sister Ofureh; "Mummy wants to see you"; as she continued.

"Chai", I exclaimed; so It was all dream as I woke up in regrets into my world of chaos and misery.

After few minutes, I left my room to my mums. She said there is lady waiting in the sitting room, she wants me to go on an errand to my eldest sisters place in Delta state. The lady wants to purchase raw materials for Herbal cosmetics and my mum was out of stock and my elder sister, Ene would have them in stock, she will provide money for the transit alongside money for the materials and give me directions on where to find her when am back .

Still stretching lazily and yawning; with only boxers and bared chest and sluggishly walked into the parlour. I actually wanted to steal a look at the ugly lady or goblin in my parlour because I was never impressed by anyone I came across and neither did it matter in any sees me in my pants.

To my greatest surprise, it was the woman of my dreams sitting right in front me. Before she could turn her focus to where I was standing, I panicked and ran inside. I felt like fate has brought her to me again.

After few minutes of having a good bath with a soap I stole from my sisters soap case; put on my best attire like a groom ready to walk his bride down the aisle. Finally, I came out with much more confidence and a striking smile I walked up to her. Did the little introduction that I have recited severally while being inside my room; she handed me her list of requirements alongside money that would be twice enough for everything. She said she doesn't know her direction to Delta state and she needed those stuffs urgently.

I wanted to request if we could both go, but to my surprise the offer came in just as I imagined and to no avail I accepted immediately. In my heart was the best feeling ever. "It seemed like she is already likes me, or did we share the same dream" I wondered ; with an unending bliss in my heart we embarked on the journey. It's an hour journey from the Ebeni community to Agbor in Delta state. Its will be the best journey of my life as I imagined.
