..........................
I went through the rest of the semester mechanically with just a pair of jeans and two shirts and a cherokee ankle boots,I couldnt wait for the Easter break to come.I needed to regroup.
It was afterwards i decided i did not want to stay on the campus again and started talking to my friend of any room for rent outside campus.
'Jojo,i hear Obi is looking for a co-tenant o'......my friend Larey informed me
'ehn ehn,make i go follow am word,where him dey sef?'...
'Check am for Lab,he get test'....
'ok,wasere'........
Obi was one of the funniest dude i had ever known,he was such a clown that he could'nt complete a sentence without people bursting into laughter and he was also a master of slangs,he rolls out new slangs every day and it was just an effort to keep up with him, he would have made it as a comedian if he was born in this age and time.
I tracked him down later in the day at the Lab and as usual he was talking to a babe,well,scoping babe was more of a hobby for him.As soon as he saw me.he excused himself and moved towards me at the same time yabbing.
'Jojo with your shorrrrrrt body!i hear say u wan mule?.....
'You kin?...which kind mule e be?.....i asked him the kind of accommodation he had
'Omo,mule na mule o, as you no get choice now'....he laughed saying ,a house is a house o.
'Mule no be mule jor,e get water?.........
'Mule wey i de stay already,e get water now,na just one room free as the landlord no dey around'..
'ehn ehn,when make i come check am?.......
'make we fix am for tommorow na,i get waka with that logo'......meaning he had a date.
'hmmm,dagbo man,the logo na mati,she de bosu?............i asked if the chick was from a rich background,cos i knew that was his speciality.
'Trust now,with your logo logo body,but no be only she de bo o,as she de bo,i de bo,she de bo ,i de bo'.............meant we both spend on each other.
'tommorrow now'.....i said
'Ok,dagbo man'......
The next evening ,i met up with Obi at Tipper garage so we could go and inspect the house
'Tell me a bit about the mule now?'......i started to probe
'I don de live there since now,the landlord no de around so na the wife dey let out the rooms'...
'ok'...
We passsed through some streets and ended up beside the community bank ,crossed the busy road and entered another street adjacent the bank,we turned right and was immediately in front of a bungalow.
'Na the Mule be dis o'.......Obi pointed at the bungalow...
' Mogbe!'.......i shouted
' wetin?why u shout?'.........
'why i no go shout?na the mule be dis?
'Omo,mule na mule o?....
we were standing infront of an uncompleted building.............................................
