“…I never knew that NYSC could serve as slimming tea until Mma went back to Gombe on Monday morning.
Her short stay was nearly my best time as a Corp Member. She woke up that Saturday morning feeling all elated and we used ihe na agwụ ike eji ezu ike to start the day.
She familiarized with other Corp members staying at the lodge during breakfast.
After breakfast, we went to market together on foot, using the opportunity to show her around Awka, the small part I knew. It was awesome.
We held each other’s hands as we strolled to market, chatting, laughing and occasionally hugging.
Most people that saw us could see the connection immediately and some of them occasionally turned to stare at us.
My height was clearly distinguishable, in addition to my broad shoulders and body stature that would have been olu gbajie girls if I had the willpower to gym consistently.
Then she was slightly taller than me with her chest part that remains the center of attraction, and with the appropriate body size to fit, plus her unimaginable beauty.
I felt like the man of the year and wished she could stay longer or that we could even get married sharp sharp.
At the market, we bought items for ọha soup and then jolof rice. The soup was for that afternoon and evening, while jolof rice was for the following day, Sunday.
We got home and she prepared the soup. It was more than delicious. That was the first time I ate a meal she prepared. It was so wonderful that I had to eat after eating.
Then we took our bath together and slept off.
In the evening, she accompanied me to watch a LaLiga match at a viewing center in the neighborhood.
Upon seeing us, the guys there were just hailing me and making her shy. She rested her head on my shoulder althrough the game. That was the first time Barcelona were losing a game and I was smiling.
Barca lost 2:1 to Atletico Madrid that night and Ronaldo fans were rejoicing on behalf of Atletico.
We went home quietly but not without buying suya along the way, accompanied by Hollandia Yogurt.
When we got back to the lodge, Oge was at the veranda. Upon seeing us, she started blushing, saying such things as, “I go love oo”, “God when?” “Am I a spoon?”
We laughed it off and went inside to enjoy our suya and Hollandia Yogurt in peace.
It was a wonderful night, one of the best I’ve had in my youthful days.
Monday came quicker than any other Monday I have ever known in my life and it was time for Mma to go back.
The transport coming to Awka had taken half of her Allawee, so I had to give her half of mine so she can use it and travel back.
I stayed by the side of the bus until it left, then I made my way back to the lodge.
Ladies and gentlemen, immediately Mma left, hunger came, and my journey with the most effective slimming tea in Nigeria began!
