The excitement of tonight feels like that of yesteryears!
Feels like the eve of my womb escape.
And this strength...
Feels like the kind I used to break her waters.
Calm down? Can't! I want to see Maama, Paapa, big bro too!
Oops! I think I kicked her again
Sorry, just can't chill.
Push...breath....puush...
I heard them repeat.
SMH, don't rush me now Mister
I'm coming out in grand style.
I have waited long for this day...say 9months?
Smoothened my hair, closed my eyes and smiled.
Dear God, I AM READY.
A new feeling...
Voices loud and real this time.
Whoaw, I'm out in the world!
Its so bright in here, it needs getting use to.
Wait...damn! this is Nigeria!
Well, I'll just leave my eyes shot all the same.
My heart was beating fast.
My head was pounding as I realised its really Nigeria!
Ouch! Who pinched me!
It hurts so much I cried and opened my eyes.
People in the room jumped and celebrated, some heaved a sigh of relief, hugs and kisses were shared.
T 'was then I first knew how strongly, deeply I'm loved. And yea, Nigerians are happy people.
