Mmeso Inspires: Lies They Tell

He said he knew when I was a little girl.

Watching closely under that guava tree in front of our gate…

Whistling to get my attention, but I never turned to see who it was.

Lost in thought, I keep wondering “When” and “Where”, yet I couldn’t recall anything.

He said he knew when I was in secondary School.

Being a friend to my Computer Master.

“Those times you were exempted from punishment was my doing, I told him I have an eye on you”.

Lost in thought, I keep wondering “When” and “How”

Because I never had a Computer master but a mistress, who won’t hesitate to spank me over a little mistake.

He said he knew my Mother.

The tall, dark, slightly built woman who sells cloth at Uro market in zone 42C.

He said he always patronize her each time he passes by.

Can someone help me and tell Jadike, that my mother is neither dark nor sell clothes at Uro market.

He said I am the spice in his food, the star in his sky and the only fish in his pond.

And yet, he was seen fumbling in the dark with Azuka…

So soon, he was seen wandering in the bush with Akunna and swimming in the stream with Ezinne.

I never believed Jadike and his lies though because these are lies they tell.
