Episode 1
On a cool Tuesday evening, I was sitting under a magoe tree located at the eastern region of our building. I guess y’all wana ask why I said our building..On the 12th of June (my birthday) I and my brother finally moved out of lagos to a new hood due to his transfer from lagos down to ekiti . It was not that easy to relocate to a new area where one would actually not have access to the kinda things he was patronising before .. As you all know me,am that holy boy who don’t drink, smoke, flex and clubbing. But according to my friend favourite quote “no one dies a virgin,life f–k us all”.
life kick us anywhere he wants. I still remain my humble and loyal self until we moved into our new home, then devil finally worsen it, he come dash me oluzo as best friend. That was when I truly understand what the aged wise men were actually saying “agutan toh bah ba aja rin a jegbe” meaning, sheep whey follow dog make friend go chop s–t.. ..
Oh! Sorry for my inconsistency My name is promise mathias but my niggaz dem call me harno ,am 23 years old, black, skinny and good looking in nature. Ever since I have lost my parents, I have been staying with my brother (nino) and we have been surviving on our own without the help of our so called family..
(BACK TO THE STORY)
I was busy chitchatting with my friends on whatsapp about my new environment , then suddenly I saw something beautiful and glittering approaching. Who could this be? I soliloquies, so something whey make brain like this de this dryland.. as I was pondering about what I saw, she walked passed.
Blood of kafaya!! See ukwu..luckily for me something fell from her purse when she was receiving a call, I quickly rushed down to check it out, and its her atm card. I quickly picked it up and run after her,i called her and she paused for a while ,she gave me a quizzical look before she proceed. I called her again but she refused to reply me.

‎ Then I saw a black, infact black is an understatement, dark skinny guy coming out of a yellow face me I plank you building sitting opposite our building..I wasn’t really concerned about where he was actually heading to, not until he stretch forth his palm requesting for a hand shake..
At first i gave him a thorough scrutinising before I responded..
He is a cute looking guy, he has a brown eyes and a sexy lips, he wore a blue crazy gean and a white polo shirt,he is actually not too tall but he is more or less of my size,his hair were beautifully shaved with dreadlock style.
