MERCY



*EPISODE THREE* 

Mercy was still sleeping when her phone rang. It was her friend Tolulope.

“Oooo….oh… who is disturbing my sleep” she said as she pushed the phone aside and it rang again the second time. She stood up as she managed to pick up the phone. She didn’t even check the caller as she answered the call

“Hello”, she said as she yawned.
“Silly girl, I know you will still be sleeping. Well, it’s not your fault. It’s the federal government that caused it. Well I have a good news for you”. Tolu said as she paused to know her reaction.

“Hello…. who is speaking? She asked and yawned again.

“Seriously, I can’t believe it. Is this how you sleep everyday that you can’t even recognise my voice. Okay. It’s me Tolulope Adeyemi. Just incase you want to ask which tolu again” Tolu said harshly

“Ooh tolulope…. Tolu Jay, I am sorry. I had a short night yesterday. What good news do you have for me? Mercy asked.

“Please, i have told you to stoping me Tolu Jay. I have broken up with that nigga so, I am not sharing names with him anymore” she said.

“Okay, I am sorry again. So what’s the news? She asked.

“Now you are talking, check your nysc portal. I just found out that I am going with this batch and I am posted to Edo state" She said happily.

“Wow…. congratulation darling. Finally I am happy for you. Let me check mine, I will call you back.

*EPISODE FOUR*

Mercy was happy and was about to check her portal, when her mummy called her.

“Oh God! What again this time? I just pray she won’t ask for my phone. I don’t even want to see her now”. Mercy murmured and answered her. Getting to the sitting room, she saw her mother all dressed up for work.

“Good morning ma” she greeted

“Good morning dear. I hope you slept well? Her mother asked

“Yes ma“she said and smiled faintly

“Mercy, Your father and I are sorry for what happened yesterday. We don’t mean to hurt you. We love and care for you. We want you to be the best and also to your siblngs. We don’t want them to notice anything now they are back from boarding school. You know how sensitive and inquisitive they are” her mother said.

“Mummy, I understand but I need you to trust me and your prayers. That’s all” mercy said calmly

“Trust me dear, we are praying for you and we trust you” mother said and smiled

“Thank you ma” Mercy said and hugged her

 “Are you going out today? Or you are staying at home? Mother asked

“I am going out to Tolulope Adeyemi’s house. I heard the list of those going to camp is out and Tolu is going with this batch. So, I need to visit her after checking mine” Mercy said and smiled.

“Wow…… that’s great. My greeting to her. Make sure you check yours, we will talk when I come back from work. Take care of you” mother said as she pecked her and left.

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation. Sometimes, you just want to follow the crowd but you realize in between that you got lost and can't just proceed with the plan.. I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

THE JOURNEY

Last 2 year, I started a journey on my health and I'm grateful. Even though I wasn't consistent especially after the coaching session but I had to strive to ensure the journey continues even though I fall, I still get myself back  Imagine being a lover of heels and you can't wear it for too long Having to sweat profusely, Having knee ache pains, Sewing new dresses because you can't wear your favorite dress Imagine lot's more because of weight gain, That was me.. Before you go further and think it's only food that cause weight gain.  Mine wasn't, I could say it was stay at home, free hands and no stress kind of reason (I don't know how best to put it) I know I'm not a slim person but I was already weighing 110kg. Lolz, 2 bags of cement. Then I told myself Temilade, it has to change  I found the solution DIET, It was at the point where I realized I couldn't be myself and also seeing changes, I decided to take my health serious  I subscribed to a di...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
