It has always been my tradition to always follow my mom to the market to sell food every Saturday and Sunday after church.
"Mom today I don't feel like going to the market with you today, what if you go with my sister Chetachi", ( means remember GOD),
"No way, Vicki how do you expect me to go with your little sister", I don't like staying at home because of the bad odor but not the market high but it looks like I don't have a choice and getting to the market is not easy because of the bad road and to get kaka is hard my father will not take us in his kaka
The market is big and full with different people culture and tradition, in the market they're a lot of branches, it has branch were they sell shops and cloth, branch were they sell jewelry and handbags, and the branch was they sell food items and that is where my mom sells her food,
"Mama Vicki how the market
"I thank GOD, my sister you go buy food",
"No, accept it for free", my mom laugh when she heard what her custom just said
"My sister where do you see free food, if you want free food you can come to the house on Sunday for free food",
"Huh, stinger woman let me be going",
"Go well", my mom was happy when the woman left,
"This is the small business I use to take care of my children and she is asking for free food, bad market",
Vicki has been meaning to ask her mom for something and feel it the right time to do so I decided to ask.
"Mom, I need to ask you for something",
"Vicki wash that plate",
"Mom!",
"What is it you need",
"Mom I need a phone, I want young to buy me a phone",
"You are not serious",
"Mom, am serious I need a phone",
"Shut up, I just ask you to help wash the plate you refuse now you want me to buy your phone",
"All my schoolmate have a phone",
"So what do you want me to do, steal for you",
"Anytime I ask you for something you always say no",
"Because I don't have money",
"So it now my fault right",
"What kind of daughter is this God",
"Am going", I left in anger",
"And where are you going, okay come back lets talk", I did not even turn or say anything to her, I kept walking so fast, whenever am angry I always look for someone to talk to I decided to go to Sarah's house to talk to her, on my way I did not greet anybody that I come across on the road I almost walk pass Sarah's mom,,
Vicki is that you
"Oh, Good afternoon mam",
"Looks like you are in a hurry",
"No, not really am actually going to your place, is Sarah at home",
"Yes, alright am on my way to the market",
"Okay ma take care", look at her Miss Maimuna Omar (Maimuna means fortunate) she really is very fortunate, her husband is dead, she lives with her brother who is married but lost his wife, she can still take care of her children am sure she must be young then my mom, sometimes I wish am her daughter, I continue thinking when I almost get hit by a car that was coming out of Sarah's house,
"Hey, Vicki what are you thinking about you almost got hit by my uncle car, please come in",
"Wait, what?.............you mean that car belongs to your uncle?",
"Yes, he bought it last week",
"Wow is like God has finally remembered your family",
