At 8am, my uncle almost drained the battery of the phone with calls. “Where are you?, where are you?”.
At a point in time, I had to lie to him that the bus had a flat tire and the driver stopped over to replace it. The passengers closer to me were marvelled by my lies and they opened their mouth wide at me. A lady sitting behind me even said it jokingly that “bros!!, you can lie oooo” and we all laughed it off.
At 8:50am, the bus arrived at ado and I alighted from the bus.
“How do I print this stuff now oo?”
I looked at the opposite side of the road and I saw a guy hawking phone accessories in a wheel barrow. I screamed “eeeehssssss” and he stopped. I crossed over to meet him and I told him that I needed a card reader, he said he doesn’t have it. Then I thought of it that a USB cable can do the work. I told him to give me a USB cable for blackberry since it also works for android phones.
He said it cost 250naira and I paid him after collecting the cable. I asked from people around on where I could get a computer center and I was directed to a shop down the road.
On getting there, the woman was just opening the shop and I greeted her.
ME: good morning ma. Please I want to make a printout.
WOMAN: you have to wait for me to sweep and clean up the shop and pray.
ME: haaaaa!!!!, how long will it take to finish all these?
WOMAN:**holding a broom*** let’s say like 30 minutes sha .
ME: haaaa!!. Please ma, I need to submit this thing at latest 9:30am or else, I will loose my career. This is 9:03am please.
WOMAN: ** dimmed her eyes and looked at me** ehn ehn!!!
ME: yes ma.
WOMAN: ok, black printing or coloured?
ME: coloured ma
WOMAN: your money is 300naira per print
ME: haa!!, pls ma, I always do it for 100naira back in Akure.
WOMAN: here is Ado not Akure, I can only do it for 200naira last price. If you can’t pay, then you can leave.
ME: **na thunder go fire you. Because you don see say na emergency abi?, no be your fault**. Ok ma, let’s do it
WOMAN: where is your flash drive
ME: I’m printing from phone ma
WOMAN: phone? How?
ME: through USB cable ma.
WOMAN: haaa!!, will it work?, I haven’t done that before?
Me: it will work. She switched on her system after dropping her broom outside. I attached my usb cable to the system and transferred the stuffs to
her system.
Me: pls ma, you will use a thick certificate paper ma, not ordinary A4 paper.
WoMAN: huuuh. You money is 500naira each oooo.
ME: ha ma, but why?
WOMAN: the price is different
ME: but its the same price in Akure ma. Its still N100 naira
WOMAN: **frowned*** should I use A4 paper then or you take it to your akure to do the Printing?
ME: ***phone ringing***, no vex ma, let’s make it 300naira ma, I beg of you ma. Please have mercy on me.
WOMAN: I will just consider that amount because I have kids too and I want them to be successful like you, I will consider the 350naira last price.
ME: ***picked call*** thanks ma. “Squeeze me”,
Hello segun, how you dey?, you number has been unreachable since
SEGE: I had a flat battery ni. I just charged it
Me: ok, you forgot to give me the card reader
SEGE: oooops!, I didn’t even realized it sha.

ME: well, I purchased a usb cable and used it to
transfer the stuffs. I’m even at the computer centre sef.
SEGE: that’s good. The guy said he has sent the
stuff. Check your mail box.
ME: ok, thank you, I will.
I checked my mail and downloaded the backpage sent to me. I transfered it to the system. The woman printed everything out and laminate them thereafter. Chaiii, the thing looks 80% real.
Just that the quality of the ink was lesser than that of the original copy.
ME: woman, how much is my bill?
WOMAN: 1,200naira.
ME: haaa!!, for just 2 print outs?
WOMAN: I thought we have concluded on the price before?
ME: I don’t know its up to this amount ****phone ringing****
WOMAN: let’s calculate it then.
ME: **looked at the phone and saw that it was my uncle**** don’t worry ma, thank you ***opened my wallet and gave her 1,200naira*** Hello uncle

I rushed out of the computer centre and stopped a bike and it took me to the address after negotiating on the price. I got to the street and called him. He came to meet me few minutes after the call and took me inside to meet the chairman.

My uncle returned back to meet me.
