Car honking. "Beep...beep!"
Signs in frustration.
I should have left earlier. I let out a frustrated hiss. Lagos Monday morning traffics.I don't fully blame traffic...today was just one of those days the unannounced quarrels between my wife and sister were at hand.
Why I say they're unannounced they just happen when you least expect them. Like this morning I innocently came from jogging and welcomed by two angry ladies.
I don't know if am making sense at all.
Mxm.
Traffic moving slowly ...at least we moving.
The worst part is that am always caught in between...just like today!
I defeatedly sign...
..............Am all my younger sister has left with ...that was until four years ago my parents...our beloved parents died in an airplane crash coming from their 21st wedding anniversary celebration in Amsterdam. Luckily, Dubem and I didn't go with them.
Sign.
Whenever those memories come to my thoughts my anger and grief awakens...damn!
The worst day of my Life...Thee worst Ever! The emotions, the feelings, unexplainablely overwhelming!
We were visiting our then alive mother's elder sister's home when we got the news. Oh my days...my poor aunty fainted due to the unexpected news because , they had talked that morning before they took their life ending flight and so it led her into coma for a week.
Life no go end to surprise us sha! Deep sigh!
Dubem just got admitted into University and I was doing my Bachelors in Law.
My parents where so looking forward to my graduation day.
Tears gathering in my eyes reminded by their ever constant support and prayers.
What a man goes through!
So I had to become my sister's guardian. I was a legal 21 year old adult.
A few months after the mourning period ,we moved out from our aunt's house- of course after much explanation and convictions, and moved to the house our parents bought us just in case anything happened.
Did not expect it to be so soon..but life doesn't tell you when it wants to do . it just shows that it can happens anytime and anywhere. And papa God says everything happens for a reason.
As the future alert/ready parents they were- their funeral was fully funded, no hit backs nor stress 'cuz their lawyers and insurance where ever present through the entire process.
They left four cars in both our names, two guest house .I know we blessed!
The house we living in, plus other 4 bedroom doublestory family vacation houses in 3 international countries. Also not forgetting - funds for Dubems education to which ever level she pleases,not forgetting the fuve figure monthly allowances in dollars. Lastly seven figure funds placed for the future.Yeah I was definitely shocked as the lawyer read out their will. I mean who would expect this much inheritance from a female accountant - my mother and a full time civil engineer my father!
