A Couple Fight In My Neighbourhood

in #m117 years ago (edited)

So..... Wonderful steemians I want to share one small amebo (gossip) with you, it was something I experienced yesterday and it seem it was a perfect back up to the post I wrote four days ago.

I was just in my little room and started hearing someone shouting and crying with a voice underneath, you must kill me today, I say you must kill me, you this foolish man after managing with you all this while and before we knew it, neighbors started coming out to see what was happening and I also ran out of my room to see what was happening.

I realized that my neighbor, Mama Jude and her husband were at it again and I was really curious to find out what the problem was as I moved a little close to the scene, older men and women in the neighborhood had gathered round to help settle the situation. The first thing they did was to remove the little child from her back because she was jumping, screaming and holding the man's cloth and they were scared that she might get the child injured.

After the child was removed from the mother's back I personally volunteered to hold the baby at least that will give me the opportunity to have a clear view on what was really happening.
And so Mama Jude started complaining, yesterday he gave me just 600 Naira which is about 2$ to cook and I understood the fact that he did not have much money on him so I looked for ways to manage the money and I even added some of my own money so that we can have something to eat, today when he was going out I asked him for money and he said he has no money on him and that means that I am responsible for the feeding of the kids for that day.

You will not believe that this evening while I was on my way home, I wanted to purchase sachet water from a beer parlor because that was the closest place for me to get water for my crying child, I then saw this idiot eating cat fish and pepper soup, chatting and drinking alcohol with a woman, I thought my eyes were deceiving me until I went close to observe properly and then I confirmed he was the one, he did not even notice that I was staring at him and I felt like walking into that place and pour the pepper soup on his head but I did not want to cause a scene. I decided to quickly prepare something for myself and my kids.

Now the idiot just got back home now and he is asking me for food, you think I am an idiot right or you think I do not know how to reason, out of anger she rushed towards him and started locking his shirt and raining insults on him, neighbors tried to take her away as her husband tried to explain himself.

Papa jude then said calmly, I think if a man has taken alcohol it will be perceived by others, maybe you should come close and smell my breath because today I went to visit my sister about the fact that that we do not have anything at home and eating has become a very great deal as we no longer eat well , she promised to send some things through her driver who dropped me right in front of our home just some minutes ago.I do not even understand where all this drama is coming from.

How sure are you that you saw me, it wasn't me you saw maybe you saw somebody else. you better look for ways to tell this good people you have called out to go back into their rooms, you would have tried to talk about it in a very good manner and I will just explain how things are to you instead of you disturbing everyone one. Now she had this look of guilt on her face and she told everyone she was sorry for causing a scene.

I quickly returned the baby to the mother and ran into my room as fast as my legs could carry me, I decided to share it with my friends here and I will be glad if you read,comment and resteem. Thanks a lot from @oluwatobiloba

Sort:  

This is one of the problems of a typical nigerian household, where the man lavished money on alcohol and doesn't care about his family. Something has to be done abt it

Hahahaha. Mama jude will never stop o. She get issues.

Abi o my brother

That mama Jude, she will never stop.... I only wish I knew her
Lovely post, I have really learnt some things....

Thanks a lot for stopping by.

How can she mistake someone for her husband? She is imagining things.
I guess she was in a good mood not to create scene at the eatery
