Dear Diary,
Bode is such a darling. Can you believe that he stylishly called Mofe and squeezed the sum of 2k in her palms telling her to give it to me saying that I will understand and that he was sorry?
I never expected it. My first thought was to refuse the money, especially with Mofe’s teasing but I knew better – I did not find ‘shishi’ amongst my stuff.
Anyways, I got the rice already and as expected, mom complained about my long hours outside. Trust me to come up with a very pitiable cock and bull story. The best part is that I don’t have to do the cooking. Mofe couldn’t get past it this time even after she threatened to tell mom about the money I received (I told her he refunded a loan and she kept quiet defeatedly).
For the first time in a long time, I actually feel like a firstborn. I’m lying on my bed, writing to you, thinking about my Bode while my siblings scurry around, handling the chores. How satisfying!
Argh! Mom is calling me already. I can’t even have a me-time in this house.
Till later jare diary.
