Pretending Not To Fear
This world of ours is quiet a funny one sometimes, when people use power to act in a certain way. The does what pleases them with the authority they have leaving the rest (you and me) to suffer for those actions? Traditions should sometimes be over looked in certain situations, because one cannot have all under his/her rules all the time.

I hope you remember from my blog yesterday that, I said I was going to run out living these nieces and nephew of mine with their mom when they over stay their holiday from school with their noise all over. And I hope you also remember, I said there was a week celebration of the Queen mother of my town?



I started to prepare to have some time out to at least look around and clear my minds off from all those indoors moments I attached myself to, only to hear my sister speaking over the phone with one of her friends, talking about the rules of the day to anyone who moves out. 



In fact I was shocked by the very things they stated which made me not to even move out again. Can you imagine the chief of our town said any one who moves out should be in black, no ear-rings for the females and no head covering for the young ladies. Well that really pissed me off from going out and I hate to be told what to wear.



I had all those dress codes but I just didn’t like it when it was a must to wear that just because we have lost a Queen mother who I never saw in my life. And rumours around says she was not even good in person in the first place.



So I just stayed on music throughout my day, until this funny thing happened between my nephew and I. All I remember was my phone ringing and went outside to pick up the call since he together with her sister were all over the place with noise.



As I was on the call, I only saw his presence by him pulling two chairs beside me and I saw him sit on one and the other was one was for his toy. But as I was on the call he tapped me to look at something and I saw two bats eating the ripped pawpaw we had on the pawpaw tree. 



After watching these bats for some time, he was like we should move in the house. At that instant I knew he was afraid of the bats, so I asked him if he was afraid and he boldly said “NO”. So I said then let’s stay a bit outside and he was like no let’s move inside. I laughed off and the next thing I saw was him running off. 
His act made my day though and found him sleeping over his favourite cartoons.
