Today? Great.

It’s a public holiday today and so I am lecture-free. With some time to spare and with nothing much to do but read, I decided to join my guys for a game of football. Boys will always be boys and so I made some noise about it and made some boastful statements about my skills.

I mustn’t fail to mention that football is not my stuff. I know nothing about it and I don’t even try. Be it the EPL, La Liga, CAF, or whichever else there is, I really don’t care. The only matches I watch are those played by our very own Super Eagles or Super Falcons or any other Super bird; and they have been kinda disappointing so far. That’s for Bro Keshi and his prayer warriors.

When we got to the field, somewhere in Opebi, we got about the game. We changed our clothes and you can trust me to be overdressed for the occasion. I had my shin guard, helmet, safety goggles, boots, knee cap guard and much more; you’d think I was going on to climb the Olumo Rock. They still let me play since am a VIP (local champion).

I started the game as the keeper and in five minutes a goal had been scored by our opponents. I had not started to show my skills yet.  I saved some goals after then sha and I started feeling fly. The game went on for like 2 hours and I had played all the wings, I was even the referee at a point.

The highlight of the whole exercise was when I saw HER watching. I knew she had come to watch me, because news travels fast. I intensified effort but truly, ‘it’s not by might’. The game ended and we won, 13 goals to 10 goals, and I didn’t score any out of the 13. What a great footballer I am, maybe I should sign up with Bukola Babes FC.

Right now, I feel pains in my waist but it doesn’t matter. Today was great. It was even greater because I spent time with HER.

PS. Pls contact me if you know where I can get a massage, I prefer the masseuse to be of Chinese origin.

Peace!
