I decided to take a stroll today.
Somehow, I found myself standing Infront of an eatery. (Awwwwwn rich kid)😆
The usual "na who dey alive dey save money" voice whispered, "enter the eatery and enjoy their AC a bit". I mumuciously walked in, ignoring the God-fearing instinct to walk pass.
I first caught sight of two love birds sitting at the far end of the big space doing their thing; wetin concern me, I quickly threw off my eyes, walked in and sat opposite them.
I sat on an empty space with the AC blowing from the back. Mehn..I had a nice time untill my inner man started playing "awilo" on my mind.
"Are you going to sit like that?, won't you buy something"?
Meanwhile, althrough my stroll time, I never stopped to remind myself that my 2k is my wealth (That is all I had in my account).
Remember I saw two love birds when I walked in? They peppered me today.
The young man with all vigour, walked to the counter, made an order, brought the food to the girlfriend, sat down and painstakingly watched her devour it.
"Who did this to this young man?" I asked myself. Abi him no dey chop?
After she finished, the waiter brought POS machine because according to her, he told her he'd pay through transfer. Total amount was 5,500 and he didn't even take note of it.
He reached out to his wallet, brought out his Atm, slashed it into the machine, and realized he barely had up three thousand.
The babe sef dey ment. She no get shi shi to support wetin she chop. Alarm was raised, uncle and aunty began to beg. Obviously, they needed to balance about two thousand eight hundred naira to complete their money.
I didn't know if I was supposed to laugh or cry for the young man. Ofcourse, I couldn't cry for the girl who just wanted to eat because na hunger strike she dey. Mtcheeew.
What choice did I have. I rushed to the scene, brought out my ATM and transfered the last 2k in my account to help salvage the situation.
At this point, I was now really sure of what I wanted to do; I actually wanted to cry. I did.🥺
Ah! my last card.
Brethren, I trekked back home from the eatery because no one asked me to take a stroll to a place I didn't know.
I wish I ate my money. Na only AC blow me for that eatery.🥺
Meanwhile, you should know that in an eatery, once you make an order, you pay at the counter before taking your food. So there's no way he could've paid for the meal after eating.
