Even Your Boo Get A Boo

Episode 29

After all arrangements had been made,i started work immediately as a manager in an oil company and within two months, my bank account had massively increased, am sure that as time goes on,I will have built my own house an purchase my very first car before the year runs out. Clara and i hardly got to see each other anymore since I resumed work rather we do speak on phone frequently where she tells me how much she misses me and all sorts of that but I cared less. As for Jenny, we met on several occasions mostly at her house whenever i go to meet her father to give him the reports for the days work after which he commends my efforts and encourage me to keep it up. I sometimes spend dinner at his place which is always prepared by Jenny, to be honest she is a very good cook, i still couldn’t figure out how and where she learnt to cook owing to the fact that she had numerous maids at her beck and call. I will later wait behind after dinner to spend some time with Jenny before leaving for home. I knew within myself that what Jenny’s father expects from me is taking our relationship to the next level by asking for his daughter hand in marriage after i had fully settled down, which i won’t hesitate to do as my love for Jenny is a fact I can’t deny.

I closed very early from work one sunny afternoon and I seize the opportunity to visit jaga at home since it had been a while since we last saw each other, i could still remember how surprised he was when he saw me.

Jaga: Daniel na you be dis

Me: no be me oh, na my twin brother you dey see.

Jaga: you dey crase. He said which made us laugh,so wetin carry you come here?

Me: there is this particular lady i usually meet at a restaurant where I do eat whenever i close work, i tried making some advances towards her which was successful and right now she is on my list. I said with a wide grin on my face.

Me: her name is Bukola, she is a Yoruba lady.

Jaga: this your legacy go soon surpass my own sef.

Me: na you sabi.

The conversation continued after which i left for home and rested for the day. As usual things went on well for the rest of the week. One fateful Friday after i had closed work, knowing it was weekend i called Jenny on phone and informed her that I will be taking her out the next day so we could be with each other and spent time together for the whole day which she agreed and promised to be at my place by noon so we could go together. My actual plans was thank her and appreciate her efforts towards my new found job which was a source of my happiness.
