On that faithful day a lady ordered a ride from a place called Apo and I was around a place called Games village. Drivers usually declined orders from that side because of the heavy traffic. She was going to a place called Kubwa and it made sense for me to go that far to pick her up. Afterall it was a long trip to where she was going to and I preferred that. When I got to a Junction, which is about 800 meters from where she was, I noticed a lot of traffic. People who know Apo would know the traffic in that area some years ago is no joke. Bear in mind I just closed from my regular job and decided to do extra hustle. This traffic lasted for about 30 minutes. I kept communicating with her and she assured me she wasn't in a hurry. I asked if I should cancel the trip so she could get another one closer to her but she declined. "It's you I want and there are no available cabs". I said to myself that there was no way I was going to disappoint her.
The traffic was crazy that my car was actually brushed by a truck but I couldn't come out to even check it because everywhere was so tight and so i left that, as I finally escaped the traffic and got to where she was, she cancelled the trip. I kept calling her and she didn't pick up. I heard her laughing with another girl inside and making a mockery of me. I wanted to run mad that day . When she eventually came out after my persistent calls, she told me rudely that she had changed her mind and wasn't going again. No apology, nothing! I stood and looked at her for like 10 minutes straight. She said, "You want beat me?" her friend even told her, at least give him a little something(tip) for the time he used to come here " and she replied, "Do I look like an NGO?" My head was in Mars when i heard that . I avoided the temptation from the devil and swallowed my anger that day and went inside the car and drove off. I just went home, took a cold bath and slept off. I felt too humiliated. Till today I'm glad I avoided that temptation.
