#CHNG – THE DAY A GIRL LOOKED AT ME AND CALLED ME “OMOBABA NO 2”

Posted on Palhood, August 7th 2013.
E ma gba mi ke. Me? Emi? A girl (‘Ibile’ - Local for that matter) comparing my handsomeness to that of the ace comedian – ‘Omobaba’. Y’all know how very ugly this Omobaba is now? I no fit believe wetin this local girl tell me this very day. I felt so bad that I had to rush home and stand in front of a mirror to check if the girl was right………buh, look at me na…….Do I really look like this Omobaba ni?

This was how it happened:

I was so bored sitting at home after work. So, I decided to go sit in my barber’s shop……..jes to chill with him. Na so I sit don for there dey use style learn how to cut hair (you know na? As a freaky freaky individual, I gatz learn so many things). This particular girl (name withheld) kan enter the shop.

I had seen her the previous day in this same shop……..I do most of my writings in my barber’s shop (I don’t know why…..buh, inspiration seem to flow easily in his shop)…….The quietness mixed with the soft music he plays in his shop kinda suite my writing spirit……..I was there the previous day to write…….That was the first day I saw her……..she even sat beside me………The girl no too bad………she fine small…….and she dey manageable. I guess she was surprised with my way of writing (the freaky kinda writing…….lolz). Me think sey she like the way wey I dey write…….I never knew she had some plans to destroy my career the next day.

She entered the shop this very day and by the look on her face when she set her eyes on me, I could say she was astonished to have seen me again……….but, this time around not writing, like she was expecting which made her say:

“Haaaaaa! Booda yi re e” – “Haaaaaaa! This is this brother”

“Iwe yin da?” – “Where is your book?”

At this point, I remembered she was the girl I saw here the previous day.

“Booda yi le ko’we ku” – “This brother can write anything”, she said while facing her friend she brought to charge phone.

I stood there shocked by her comments and questions. I jes standa there dey look like zombie.

Then the next bombshell fell: she turned to her friend once again and said:

"Shey o mo wipe booda yi jo comedian ti wan ma pe ni Omobaba number 1?” – “Do you realize that this brother looks like the comedian they call Omobaba number 1?”…….She did not stop there ooooooo. She then turned to me;

“Abi eyin ni Omobaba number 2 ni?” – “Or are you the Omobaba number 2?” She said this and they (she and her friend) both laughed and left the shop.

My barber friend had to ask me if we’ve had issues in the past…….I no fit answer the question as I jes dey dere regretting ever leaving she and her friend to go like that.

Anyways, 3 days later, we (the gurl and I) met again……..and after a week, I punished her for what she did……..please, do not ask me what the punishment was………*winks*
