I woke up this Saturday morning, with my alarm ringing from my phone, oh it's today I thought, the all weekend saturday youth music concert organised by a friend of my neighbour Joy, which she had insisted I must come, since I've always turned down her previous invitation, 'this is going to be the last Saturday' she said persuasively as it was a one month all Saturday program, i accepted defeatedly, got prepared and followed her to the venue.
The concert had already started, as it was an all praise concert, people were dancing joyfully to the rythm of the song, the lead singer singing with so much energy and her melodious voice added much more vibe to it, it was really entertaining and soul lifting that I caught myself moving to the beats with reckless abandon,
In a moment, I caught a stare, from an handsome feature, his fair face was captivating with an amused smile plastered on it,he had a well trimmed full beard, bald cut hair, well built up stature, you know that Bank W(a Nigerian music artist) kind of look, sweat trickling down his face and his shirt soaked, as he was still drumming also with as much energy as the singer.
Suddenly it felt as if time became paused or slowed for us then every other person in the auditorium disappeared just the way it happens in Korean movies, as I kept staring at him and he at me, oh I think I've just met the man of my dreams I thought, as a young girl growing up ,I had a picture of how my ideal kind of man should look like and he seemed to have all the features. Handsome, young, attractive etc. If that is what how love at first sight meant, then I found the person of my dreams at love at first sight.
At the end of the concert, i couldn't find the guy who had filled my brain since I set my eyes on him, i was tempted to ask Joy, my friend but I didn't want her to make à jest of me, we were about leaving the entrance as i felt bad not seeung him again, when someone with a deep baritone voice said almost in a whisper behind us hello ladies, we turned, and that was him again, the handsome drummer, hi Joy he said, you didn't introduce me to your friend as he held my hand gently while staring at me again and said "my name is Dee, thanks for attending our youth music concert, I'm sure you enjoyed yourself, what is your name, i will love to see you more", i stared back at him, smiling shyly, at that moment I knew,
This weekend I met the person of my dreams and he is all I ever imagined and more.
This is my submission for the weekend experiences, thanks for reading.
