A few years ago, I met someone who was special to my heart then. It was in a public transport, such a cute humble and handsome man, make I still add that one, there’s a way you approach a lady, she wouldn’t even know when she give in.

So I entered, before he did, it was from gwarimpa to beggar. He was admiring my hair and playing with it, admiring my hands and nails too.

He started teasing. Aah aunty, if I was a woman I’ll surely have your skin, see how glowing and your natural beauty. Me wey no even fine still dey find makeup join.

Fresh like today’s bread, like new baby they just pushed out. Ajeh, na dem dey fine likdis.

Abeg did God created you on a Sunday morning because you look like a morning glory.

I couldn’t hold the laugh, I giggled, I turned and looked at him, he was so cute, his eyes sparkles.

Please don’t look at me with such a beautiful face, no makeup, just hair, lashes and your white lipgloss and you’re glowing. People wey no find like me dey ki.ll themselves with makeup.

Aunty, if I don’t love your outfit make I bend, and your beautiful spotty bag. Dem swear for you to come and suffocate us with sweet fragrance of your cologne?.

I bursted out and even the guy that was sitting beside me bursted, when the other guy dropped. He asked the driver not to pick anybody, he will pay anything to have time admiring an angel.

Me that knows how to be shy and love to laugh couldn’t hold myself.

He said and even the driver smile. Anyways, I heard one English apparently so let me learn. Apparently, I was going somewhere for a meeting. Though I still have the right to call it off and reschedule apparently.

And apparently I have to cancel because apparently, I’ve seen something, if only she will give me her bag.

Because apparently her sweet scent is something else. So apparently apparently apparently, tell me you won’t laugh aje.

Ajeh shey I think say you no go laugh before, bovi and Gordon’s you do laugh when you see them on stage. Dem find reach me?.

He wasn’t going to area 1 oo, he had to follow me. Aunty ma’am, please can I join you today? I’m a very jobless person, I don’t have what to do.

I alighted,I wanted to pay he held my hand. Apparently, if you’ll allow this poor man to pay, because apparently driver can I pay for two?.

Apparently I was basically apparently roaming around until I just decided to be paying for anyone apparently apparently.

I asked. Who are you, like how dare you being so funny and handsome at the same time.

He said, for this Jesus I said I must win soul for God. So this, please you must bye me lunch, because apparently I can’t win soul with no return.

Like I laughed like never before. He said, ajeh, shey you enter car, dey form posh, dey form iron woman.

Even if you form iron and tough woman, your face still look milky and beautifully smiling apparently apparently, ajeh hiss

Someone hold me, I nearly fell down with laugh, I had to hold myself because we were on the road.

I actually wanted to go see my sister, I had to cancel, it was Saturday.

Are they done with the car? Are you still at the mechanic?. He still turn and look me while on the phone.

Mtcheew so this small thing you still dey laugh, ajeh iron woman wey face dey like freshyo baby. You will double my plate for winning soul today.

Aah I’ve never seen anyone like this, who is this my God. I laugh eeh.

After a few minutes, I saw a range Rover packed in front of us as he directed his driver where we stood.

The driver bending down to greet him. Sir the other car is at the car wash, they have finished this one since morning I was waiting for you.

He said, sir you no get sense, small act you no fit, who tell you say I be sir, mechanic like me?.

Please sir can I borrow your car? Please I have won a wonderful baby face beautiful soul for God. So we are going to thank the lord.

The driver still said. Sir, you are always very funny and playful, okay you wanna drive yourself?.

He said. Yea boss, if you wouldn’t think I’ll damage your expensive car.

The driver handed over the key to him, he gave the guy some money for transport. Her excellency, turning to me. please can I drive you, if you laugh apparently I’ll cast out the spirit of ajeh from you.

He opened the door for me,laugh wan finish me.

We got to cross over restaurant in Cairo street wuse 2, my best place to eat.

This guy use laugh and comedy finished me, in all this he didn’t ask for my number. He didn’t ask where I live and my whole life history oo and what I do for a living.

He didn’t even tell me about his life and who he really was, hr wasn’t being overly braggadocios.

We finished from there and went to dreams to have some drinks. He wasn’t saying anything serious, was just making me laugh and laugh and laugh.

When we wanted to leave, he stopped me somewhere to book a ride for me back home. He said….

Please ma’am, if your boy is still loyal, will it please you to give a mechanic like me your number? So we can always pray together every night?.

Like I didn’t even hesitated and without saying a word, I gave him my two numbers of my both phones.

I think say you no go give me before, if I for nod you upper cut eeh, apparently ajeh. You go dey comot come for house,carry fine face like ajeh wey dem fight.

When I got home, that night I was just reminiscing about my day with that guy, laughing laughing all through.

He called, still making me laugh, without even saying something serious.

Ma’am I’m jobless will you give me the honor for this mechanic jobless man to take you somewhere very nice you’ve never been before.

Apparently my mother uncle boss took me there, who dash me boss as jobless as I am. Ajeh if you laugh eeh.

I tell una say, women like una, una never see who bend una. No hard thing for me, see your small nose and mouth.

I was just opening my mouth in gape laughing without being able to say a thing on my bed.

Oya I’ve sent you 10 naira, being (10k) airtime to subscribe as big senior ajeh that you are.. so you will chat me if it pleases your honor.

I said. But I’m going to church, it’s an impartation service and will have something to do against Monday work.

Shey na only you go church abi, we go go together. You don know norin, see lemme tell you some m, init?.

I laughed till I got a headache. I fell in love with him without knowing it, he was already in love with me, before I started catching the feelings. If I don’t talk to him in a day, I can’t stand it, and same with him.

He was a very big guy, but he was so humble and playful like a child.

Why I bring this story is. Some men doesn’t even know how to approach a woman, not to talk of knowing how to win them. I’m very simple and I love to laugh and play a lot.

Some are so proud, and will use questions to finish women, some will be so shameless to view their boobs size and bring it to their face.

I liked him from that very first day, because he made me laugh so much even without knowing me and sacrifice his time and day. He found out I was just heartbroken from past relationship before that day. And he helped me heal quickly.

Some of you start by asking immediately if you can see a woman and coming to your house, and asking disrespectful questions in a very disrespectful manner.

I have a lot of sweet interesting stories like that. What I’m tryna say is, the way you make your way, so you lie on it. The manner of approach matters a lot, especially with women

Sometimes love isn’t hard to find,but how you approach that love to find you and stay with you matters a lot. A lot of men are turn off, seriously to most women who can’t stand some nonsense. Learn to fun and diplomatic ij your approach.
