Beauty Is Cheap

So, I was in this taxi (I neva buy my own car yet) on my way to church, it was a wednesday evening and I was already late for communion service yet the driver was driving really slow; like a learner. At some point I wished I could take over the wheels but 'me sef no even sabi drive' so I had to just put up with the 'grand-mama driving wey him dey do'.

That actually is not the story.

We got to "piakasa" junction, just ahead of "Lugbe" on your way from the airport, there, a very pretty lady joined us in the cab, I couldn't help staring at this babe; 'o boy! She too fine, in short, over-fine dey worry her'.

Her make-up was on-point! Dress sense? Perfect!!!

And I was thinking 'if I be guy I for toast the babe, as-in, I no go let her get down without giving me her number(s), BB pin, twitter handle, plus including house address sef'.

Enough of my thoughts about this babe but I swear 'she fine die! If to say my brother don reach to marry I for toast her on his behalf'.

'Anyhow sha', we got to Games village and unfortunately there was heavy traffic. 'I for don begin hiss at the driver' because I was really late for church but 'for the fine babe wey sit near me, I just chin-up'. The next thing we heard was siren blaring behind us, normal thing na for us to park make big man pass but our driver wouldn't hear of that (me sef support am).

The siren became really loud and intimidating, 'na me come change mind tell our driver make him park one side because I no dey for police wahala'.

I almost forgot to say that with all this commotion this fine babe 'no talk anything', as-in, not even a word. 'Me come dey talk for my mind say no be only fine this girl fine o, she get good carriage sef (atleast she no follow me and the driver insult the big man wey dey intimidate us with siren)'.

We eventually parked off the road and the VIP passed, 'as soon as them pass naim I hear wonders o, this fine babe just begin tear head', in her words [sic] " why you no fry na? You for come fry pass our hed, I tink is onry you wey dey hully".

My father!!! 'I no fit shout, no be small cold catch me o. With all this make-up? Nooooo!!!! Na that time I come realise say no be everything wey dey shine naim be gold o'.

It also brought to mind something Japhet Omojuwa of Omojuwa.com said and I quote "beauty is now cheap and shouldn't be the difference".
