Lagos Traffic

Jeeeeeeeeez!!!! I cant believe its over, how did it go so fast, it’s like I blinked and it was over, please dear weekend don’t leave me now!!, oh noooooo this alarm pls stop, plzzzzzzzzzzzzz stop, okay time to get up…..i grudgingly walk to my bathroom, through sleepy eyes that refuse to accept reality, I pick up my toothbrush and force my hands to go to and fro with my toothbrush, okay bath time that is the major reality check, 30 minutes later am all set and ready to go.
I step outside breathing in the beautiful refreshing morning air with a huge smile on my face, suddenly a cold, harsh, wicked reality dawns on me “LAGOS TRAFFIC”, only this thought makes me want to run back to the comfort of my beautiful inviting bed.
“NO”, I accept the courage and amidst struggles and struggles I finally win the battle of the traffic, moments later I arrive at work and the welcoming smile of my colleagues and hidden smile of my boss refreshes my heart.

I delve straight to work…………..smiling now I look at my watch, yes!!! ‘5pm’ at last time to go home, and as I step right outside my office, again a cold, harsh, wicked reality dawns on me, “wait” I say to myself “this feeling is familiar”, then the smile on my face is slowly wiped away as reality crashes in “LAGOS TRAFFIC”.

It’s just Monday, “OH DEAR WEEKEND WHEN WILL THOU COME AND SAVE ME”.
