Adejoke

I gave the food to Abam and went upstairs.. I got the house swept which obviously impressed Eva and Mrs Maya. I went to my room took my bath and put on my cloth, ready to leave the house.


"Bro, where are you going? I want to follow you!" Abam cried.


"No you can't, ok....I promise I'll be back very soon with lots of chocolate" I said patting him on the head.


I went out in search of job, going every nook and cranny of Bolgatanga. I saw every notice post regarding job hunters but I didn't like any of them. Then finally, I went to a big bar where tourists from foreign countries come to dine, wine and party.


The bar had a very a big restaurant and a very big hotel where travelers stayed. I went to the bar and fortunately I got a job as a singer after much query. I was excited, that I bought  sweets for everyone.


"Abam! Eva! Eva! Mrs Maya!" I called out gleefully.


"Why are you shouting?" Eva asked looking concerned, scanning my face and my body.


"Bro Ade, what happened?" Little Abam inquired taking my hand into his.


"Ade boy" Mrs Maya called looking out at me.


"Guess what? My dreams..... ohhh my....I found a work as a musician..... isn't it wonderful??" I screamed giving them all sweets.


"Where did you find the job?" she said in between munching the sweets.


"Behind er.... st Barnabas church at Panya Street." I described looking at my wrist watch.


"You'll start tomorrow?" Eva asked sharply.


"Yeah!" I replied fixing my gaze on her tiny body and her curly hair she'd always try to strengthen.


"I'd be going out to get something" I announced moving to my room.


I went to my pillow brought out from underneath it, some bundles of cash and out I was.


"Eva! Eva! Eva!" I shouted in excitement.


"Yes I'm coming..... He's always calling me like I'm his wife or something..." She mumbled rushing down the stairs.


"Eva look what I bought with my hard earned money" I jabbered excitedly.


She screamed in happiness her mouth giving out the shape of an "o".


"Wow!! man you tried... Whoah..... ah mom would be so proud of you" Eva said, giving me a big hug...


That sure sent Butterflies in my tommy....


"I'll take you round in my bike, let's go bring Abam back from school and afterwards we go shopping... maybe??" I said cheerfully.


"OK babe, let's go" she said hopping in.


This actually wasn't the first time I ride a bike....I rode one  when in Lagos.... but that was Pa's....


I started the engine and we went round and round...


OK... tell me what ship should we give them....


Well, I think those two are getting me jealous....
