We like to feel as if we our our brother/sister's keeper while in actual fact, all we are doing is undiluted Amebo. Èké is my hobby, original Aproko .
I'm sure you are wondering "wostapun"?. (see, "gbéborùn....loool)
Anyways, I got to the bank today and gave the teller a cheque and my drivers license and d following conversation ensued:
Him: (looks at the cheque and my license, gives me a funny look and reads out my name as it is on the cheque) O. V. Oladoyinbo Miss. (emphasis on the word Miss). He (referring to the person who issued the cheque) wrote miss.
Me: Yes
Him: Miss?
(I nod)
Him: Are you sure it's correct?
Me: *blank stare* Errrrr.... Yes it is.
He shakes his head, smiles and mumbles something and I'm like uncle hope all is well?
Him: you should change this title o. It's not befitting.
Wawu!!! At that moment, a thousand and one replies cross my mind, but I decide to let it slide, I smile; complete my transaction, thank him and turn to leave when he says : "have a nice day, and don't forget what I said about changing your status soon o", I'm like "Bọ̀dá yìí, ṣé kò sí"? but I'm in a fairly good mood so I ignore his relentless máfilọ̀míndási and promise him an I. V. when I'm ready to change my status and I take my leave.
