DEBORAH, Episode 1

              DEBORAH, Episode 1

My name is Deborah, my friends do call me Debby. I was such a beautiful lady. I wished to further my education into tha university but I can't cos of financial issues. My father was a peasant farm in his days before he died. My mother was a petty trader.

I was tha only child of my parents, so I had to move from out village to Lagos. Aunty Simbi who was my mother's junior sister took me down to Lagos, to help her in her restaurant and get paid.

After one year in Lagos, I was looking more of city girl. No village dressing again. I wore city clothes and get myself some Lagos hairstyles. 

On Wednesday, October 1980. I met Collins, who was a new customer in my Aunt's restaurant. Collins was a cool and calm man among all tha customers, he do comport himself well in tha restaurant, he hardly talk to people.

On this fateful day, after serving him what he wanted to eat, i stood still beside his table and I asked him in a seducing way, oga wetin be your name? (sir what is your name?) He replied with his gentle voice, my is Collins. Oh my goodness! What a nice name, I said to him. He smiled while eating his jollof rice.

I told him when he is done, I will like to see him, he agreed, and said no problem. I went to attend to other customers who were coming in. After some minutes,  Collins was done eating, he signaled me that he will wait for me till I am done with other customers.

After I was done with tha other customers, I went to meet Collins, we both walked outside tha restaurant, and talked in brief. He asked of my name, I told him, my name is Deborah but my friends call me Debbie. He showed interest in me and threw his advances to me, I accepted immediately. Wow! At last, this handsome gentleman is mine, saying this in my mind. He gave me his address, which he jotted on a piece of paper. 

I heard my name, Deborah! Deborah!! What are you doing outside with a man? That was my Aunt's calling me, Aunty Simbi. I sharply replied ma! I wanted to collect money from him. She said okay! Collect what you want to collect and move in to attend to other customers. After saying that, she went into tha restaurant and sat down.

I went into tha restaurant after bidding Collins a goodbye, and attended to other customers. We closed for tha day. Tha next day, Aunty Simbi said I will be going to tha market and she will be heading to tha restaurant that once I am done buying whatever we needed in tha restaurant, I should come and take over sales from her. I was overwhelmed with joy in my heart. This is tha opportunity to go and meet my handsome man.

After I was done buying everything in tha market, instead of heading to tha restaurant, I headed to Collins house with tha help of tha address he gave me, tha piece of paper he wrote his address was like a gold given to me. I treasured it as if my life depended on it.

After searching of his address, now I am in Collins house.  I knocked tha door, he opened tha door with a cool smile on his face, I was stressed up, cos of tha things I carried in polythene bags from tha market. I managed to smile back at him, he collected tha bags from me. 

He asked me, where are you coming from? I replied, I am coming from tha market, Aunty Simbi sent me to buy some items we will be needing in tha restaurant.

He entertained me, we talked, we played and we gisted. Collins told me that he saw me as a good woman and a wife material. He will like to marry me. He asked me many questions, but  I did some coverings so that he won't know much about me and I won't loose him into another woman's hand. 

We played, we talked and talked, I asked him too as well about his past relationship, he told me about it, that a girl he intended to marry, he jilted her and and married another man. I said in my heart, thank God he jilted her, if not I won't be with you today. 

Immediately I looked at tha wall clock, its 5pm, I told Collins that I will be on my way. We went downstairs and he said he will drop me off tha way towards tha restaurant, that he would have loved to take me to tha restaurant but he wanted to visit tha grocery store along tha way. He drove his car, and he dropped me off and he drove to tha grocery store. I continued tha remaining journey to tha restaurant with my two legs, cos where he dropped me is not far from tha restaurant.

After 3years in relationship with Collins, we were both planning our wedding. Not until this day, Collins told me he is not interested in tha relationship anymore.

WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED???
