Woke up this morning and well here goes😃

Have you ever done something really terrible, and you dont quite know how to tell your mom?, Like maybe break her favourite flask or put morning fresh in bathing water for your dad or something..Yes you get the idea

I did something last night, something i dont even remember..Not really, I just woke up and realised i had done it.
To be fair though i was drunk last night
Like shit ass drunk
"Smashed out of my mind" kind of drunk
So i really dont remember what exactly happened...I just woke up to see a very naked body beside me...and was shocked spechless when i turned to see Dave

My sister's Fiance Introductions and Lists all concluded
Fear not..I ran out of there before he woke up

So yeah, i am in one of those situations where my middle name is "sorry"
 Anyway, i am doing the right thing(or what i suppose is the right thing) and I'm heading over to my sister's place to tell her...To screw my beloved sister's life up

"Please leave my taxi ma" The bald headed man in front of me says obviously oblivious to my indecision
I move to go out
My heart pounds loudly in my chest and I hesitate

"Step out please!", don't give me bad luck this morning"
I hiss at his insensitivity and step out shoving the 50 naira bill in his hand and mumbling
"Idiot" at him.

Then i turn and stare at building in front of me, The noise of the cab sounding distant to my ears
I almost changed my mind. almost.
But then fate seals my fate "Rachaaaeeelll! come inside oooo..." my sister bellows from her window
.and I prepare for my very own Nigerian Funeral in my head.
