A notification popped up on my phone, I opened it and it was an invite from my friend Nasir to attend his convocation at lead city university, Ibadan which I accepted, I went straight to my wardrobe to check for a suitable outfit that matches the occasion, after contemplating on different outfit, I finally come to a conclusion of a pant trouser and a shirt, I ironed it and kept it in a place, I went to bed.
The following morning I took my bath and start preparing to leave for the convocation, I started dressing up and noticed the trouser isn't my size anymore, no matter how hard I tried, it was entering me so I needed to switched to another outfit...I tried several outfit before coming to a conclusion of wearing what I wore. I left for his school, prices of transportation was so high, I haven't gotten to the school and I already spent all that was on me, I had to go withdraw another money that would sustain me to the school and while coming back home, after some couple of minutes, I got to the school.
I called him severally and he wasn't picking the call, I was standing in one position for about 20minutes and my legs were aching me already, out of frustration, I removed the hills I was putting on and the floor was do hot but I had to just endure one. After for about 40 minutes of trying his number, he called me back apologizing that he couldn't pick the call inside the hall cause he was sitting in the front, he then told me that he sent someone to come pick me up from there to where his tent is located at, I had to put on my high hills back because I can't be walking barefooted, I stood there for another 20 minutes before someone walk up to me and ask if I'm from Nasir and I said yes, She walk me to where his tent was, I was just saying to myself where there's no bike or cap to take us to wherever we want to go, a private university oo, The place was so far that my legs almost got broken, after walking we finally got to his tent, people weren't much on it, I sat down and the other lady left. I was there pressing my phone when I saw some couples of people walking out of a hall with convocation gown, he was one of them, he walked towards me and smiled, I couldn't get angry because he was the start of the day, so I calmed myself, he walked up to me and apologize for the inconveniences he caused me. His parents showed up too with different big coolers, they arranged everything and started serving the food. I went for jollof rice and chicken same as the man beside me, I haven't eaten my food to half when I noticed this man already finished the food and he requested for Eba and ewedu soup.
I ate my food and make new friends too, his parents left and we the gen z was left there, We gisted and it was getting late, I told them I had to leave for my house and they suggested we should all go out and party for the night, I could not accept their suggestion because I don't find fun in late night outing. I got back home tired, I showered and slept off.
Convocation seems fun but why in god's name will you remove your heels in public 😂. As beautiful as you look. Thank you for making his day, it must mean a lot to him. And the jollof? What's a Nigerian party without a jollof 😂😂
