MY CANDY CRUSH

But I still knew I loved her. So I gat to keep pushing. So I decided to strategize this time around. I went online to research on ways on how to approach a lady you love. I saw too many things and they made me more confused. Then I decided to go see my uncle "Jeff". By midday, he would almost certainly be drinking alcohol, that was the more reason I had to go now knowing fully well that he wunt advise me on how to get a woman when his head is cleared of alcohol.

"Paul." He called excitedly upon seeing me. He was sitting in the balcony and drinking as I suspected. He never dissapoint's me. Old habit "they say" never dies.

So I went on to tell him about my devasting love story and how I've been shying away from my crush.

" You have failed me" he said laughing. after listening to what I had to say. " How can you let a single girl trouble you ? " he added, looking rather too serious.

" When I was your age, all I think about was ladies. And the difference between the both of us is that I actually got them" he said, laughing.

"are you going to help me or keep laughing at me." I said, alluding to my uncle's mocking remarks.

"Okay first of all, you have to go talk to her" he said, "she needs to see the confidence in you if you stand a chance of winning her heart". he said, pouring more wine to his glass.

"And one last thing, don't forget to shake your breastpack and wink your eyes while talking to her, that's the fastest trick that works on every girl" he added, smiling broadly.

"I don't know how shaking one's breastpack helps in winning a girl's heart". I said to myself.

I have always believed that my uncle held the secret to a woman's heart. Well I'm just about to find out with the little advise I got from him.

"Thanks for the advice uncle Jeff" I said, standing to take my leave

" So soon? Why don't you stay a little longer while I get you something to eat" he said, but I was already running home before he could complete his statement.

I ran home with so much excitement as though Racheal was already mine.

just as I approached the house, I saw Racheal coming out from her house with Gladys.

Gladys was my church member. We are not that close but we are in talking terms. I never knew they were friends.

"Wow" I said to myself, my chances just got bigger.

With the help of Gladys and the secret I got from Uncle Jeff, it sounds like racheal's already mine. I just couldn't contain my excitement.

So in Bible study that day, I got to church by 4pm for a 5pm meeting. My trouser was neatly ironed that the gator lines could literally tear one's hand when mistakenly touched.

I knew I had to impress Gladys so that she will have the morale to help me talk to her friend racheal.

I had to resort to a third party communication. Since anytime I see racheal my heart skips.

"Hello Gladys, it's being a while. How are u doing" I said.

"paul! ..It's really being a while . Am great and hope you are cool too? Meanwhile you have a very nice outfit." Gladys replied.

At this point, my mind was already dancing.

I thought to myself, " if she could observe and compliment my outfit, then she is probably impressed with me already. So am sure she will help me out with racheal.

So with that confidence I said, "Gladys I kinda like your friend recheal. How can you help me get hooked up with her?"

"Oh you too?. Hahahaha" Gladys laughed so hard.

In my mind, I knew there was a problem already for she to be laughing like one that is being tickled by a boy.

"Stop laughing now. Talk to me. Can you help me?

Please, I really need your help. I love her so much". I said,

managing to stop laughing she finally said "Wow, Racheal is very hot then, You are the third person asking for my help now to that regards.

Well, I would have loved to help, But only on one condition"

I was now very happy. "What condition can't i meet for my love? Just say it jor. Am up to the task."I said to her.

Then she said "Hold on man, don't be in haste. On Sunday after church service I will tell you".
