I got back to my home in akure in the evening and I was so tired and weak. The news of my accident had reached my neighbours and I guessed it was the handiwork of segun. I was greeted on after the other by everyone in my neighbourhood. “E kpele ooo, erora oooo, sorry oooo, oluwaseun ooo pe emi yin wa laye oooooo…..” Was coming from left to right as I dropped from the bike that stopped infront of my house and walking inside the house .
I begged one of my neighbours to borrow me her phone and I used it to call segun to inform him that I’m around. He told me he would be in my house right away.
I opened the door of my room. I dropped my cross-bag on the bed and my credentials file on the wardrobe where I used to placed it. I was so hungry and I called on one of my neighbour’s daughter and I gave her 300naira to buy food for me from “mama biliki” who owns a local canteen beside my house. she returned with a plate of rice, 2 meets and 50naira change. I gave her the change to keep it and she went away. I was eating my food when I heard a knock on my door.
ME: who is that?
VOIcE FROM OUTSIDE: its segun.
ME: ok ***i stood up to open the door from behind and we both hugged each other and returned inside the room***
