Scene three
Episode 1
Dear diary,
This was the first the first day of summer and like every other summer, it was the season of fun and relaxation. Unlike foreign countries with different other seasons : winter,spring and autumn, Nigeria seems to be led by the holy spirit. It rains when it wishes and could be hot enough to roast a plantain a minute after. Often times i have been beaten by the rain in Ikeja only to get to Maryland and find dry land .
God was indeed awesome. The general idea of an awesome summer is throwing pool parties and picnics at the beach, putting on shorts and spaghetti armed singlets with sun glasses but i was aquaphobic and thalassophobic : big body of water? Kindly shoot me in the head instead. Karmsi had once made fun of me saying i am a run-away mermaid and that's why i have the fear of water.
The things Karmsi says.
My idea of a perfect summer was spending it with someone special someplace very comfortable. That 'someone' being my bestfriend and that 'someplace' being my house.
Like the saying there's never a place like home.
