Having someone or people that come(s) through for us in time of need is golden, mine was even more golden... because I don't even see it coming at all, yet it came surprisingly.
I had this close friend when I was serving my fatherland as a corp member, we were so close that everyone thought we're lovers, her name is precious, but I call her "presh" I'm yoruba while she's Igbo yet that doesn't have any negative effect with our friendship.
We also served in the same place of primary assignment (PPA) Revenue house Minna, Niger State, that makes us communicate more, we go to work together, sometimes eat together, in short we have a lot of things in common.
Hmm all this good times only lasted for few months, I wished I could enjoy it longer lols...
After service, everyone parted ways... she went to East while I also returned to Kwara state. Till tomorrow am still missing each and everyone I came across with during my service year, have not been able to see even one of my friends ever since we left Niger state. We only talk via phone call or video call. I just wish I can be opportuned to see just one if not all of them especially my bestie "presh".Her kind of person is so rare, she's so caring, loving and all the good qualities you can think of in a good lady.
It was a pity I couldn't save much during my service year, Nigeria dealt with me a little 🙈😃 nevertheless I made effort to utilize the little I saved, if I don't want to loose it, I rather invest it in a business else I'll squander everything. After getting a small business I could venture into, the money was not enough to start.
Few weeks later while I was thinking of what to do and how to get the money, my very good friend precious message me on Whatsapp, we were just gisting about life, while she asked me what am up to and I explained, I think she got interested in my business idea and wished to help, I can't say how happy I was that very day, because I was not even expecting it from her, no offense but it seems it's rare for a lady to come through for a man in that kind of situation, she was not my girlfriend, we were just friends yet she surprised me and helped me greatly in solving my problem.
Without wasting time, I quickly contact the person that wanted to help me with the processing, and that's how I started my shoe selling business, I sell snickers and all kinds of shoes for male. I can say I really made a lot of profit in the business, it's a bit sad I had to opt out few months ago due to my busy schedule though it's worth it because I now have more profitable things am into, yet I still take orders sometimes.😃 On like before that my WhatsApp status is always flooded with shoes lols...
Till tomorrow I keep thanking her for how she came through for me and even though I've not been able to repay her am sure she will have received the reward of her kind gesture because the last time I spoke with her she had relocate to United kingdom with her husband happily married. It's good to always do good, good things follow those that do good and evil follow those that do evil, maybe I received that act of generosity from her even without asking due to the help have also rendered to people, you never can tell when and how you'll reap what you sow, so it's better to keep doing good because no matter how little or big we'll all reap whatsoever we sow.
Thanks for stopping by my post.
