The silent whispers as the wind blows past my ears while sipping on my Alomo and staring at every puff of smoke evaporate into the sky.The Night keeps me calm and allows me enjoy and reminisce moments, I mean Life as a cab man hasn’t been bad at all…I chuckled as I took another drag of smoke and a pint of alomo. Bolting through my head came memories of Nnenna.I Gasped‘I have a boyfriend’, so what am I supposed to do?? I actually like her though as I scrambled through my phone and saw her last message which read ‘I am at your gate oga’I chuckled hard as I stared at my phone wondering whether to call or text her, but she has a boyfriend so what’s the point sef?

They both came down and paid me and walked off. At this point I just wanted to lay back. And some of the words kept replaying. I have never really thought about my priorities.What was I doing with my life? I am still young and driving a cab is not really my long-term plan or even if it is I need to diversify. Then it hit me that I have been blaming life about my situation that I have refused to think about a way out.But things are hard, Isn’t it enough excuse? Urrgh like it’s that easy to be positive. I bet if he was in my shoes he won’t say such. Not like I know what he is going through at least he isn’t giving excuses.I sunk into my chair. I needed to figure out my priorities, I have been so focused on the wrong things. I better start looking for a way out of life before life finds a way out of me. I mumbled to myself as I started my cab and headed home*tunes radio* Superhuman – MI Ft HHP
