“The hare is very hard-working while the tortoise is lazy. The hare decided to stop feeding the tortoise and it started starving,it starve for so long until he decided to be hardworking" this part is the only one I listen to.

  I put myself in the position of the tortoise and put mama in the position of the hare.

  

   Thou mama won't starve me but I think it's high time I fight the lazy voice in me and embrace the resounding voice pushing me to success.

   I open my eyes to saw two men standing over me with stern face,I sat up looking at them curiously

  “Mama is dead and you're here snoring” the first man said with disgust

   I stood up properly still dazed about what I just heard, it dawn on me that even in the after life mama still care for me taking her time to lecture me. I realized that her short story is a farewell.

   She's the hare who stopped feeding me because of the cold hand of death and I'm the tortoise who starved all day long. Yes, I did starve for so long after her death before I finally gain my footing 

   Embrace the inner voice telling you to do something meaningful and neglect the destructive voice. Do something it's the bedrock of success.

"Fatimah the glutton was born on ileya day" this song as been on repeat in the mouth of my troublesome cousin infact this is the 25th time she will be singing it. No mind me, me sef no get work.

 

    I couldn't contain it again so I just shout for her to stop singing.

 

  "What's the meaning of that useless song you've been singing since" I ask with an angry look

 

   "Aunty Fatimah I'm just singing ni óò"

 

  "I didn't say you're not singing where the hell did you hear it from"

 

   "It's the song they taught us in school oo and i remember today so I decide to sing it"

 

    "So it's today that I didn't fast that you remember hun and you're even using my name"

 

    "Ahh sis it's not like that, me I'm just singing wallohi" she use the tip of her middle finger to touch the tip of her tongue and point it straight to the sky

 

  I look her with one kind eye but I told her to go when she make an innocent face and continue munching my snacks.

 

    Few moment later my cousin's friend came to our house to play. My cousin is still repeating the song and even singing louder like someone who swallow a speaker, just then her friend ask which kind stupid song she is singing and I was surprised because they're in the same class and even going to the same school.

 

   "What do you mean? Is that not the song they taught you in school" I asked curiously

 

   "No aunty Fatimah,She is probably making it up because they didn't teach us such in school"

 

    I noticed my cousin winking at her friend but she's to engrossed in answering my question to notice.

 

   I stylishly went inside to pick one strong koboko that my dad keep inside.

 

   She's unaware of what I'm doing inside and continue playing with her friend. As I step out I catch her laughing and saying

 

  "I compose the song for sis Fatimah,She too like food,small Tarawih yesterday she faint imagine"

 

I'm still chasing her around the house like this but wait is she Usain bolt Ni🙄🙄🙄cos I never catch her and I'm on the verge of fainting again
