I woke up a few minutes later to discover my water pot missing. I searched in vain for it with frustration and dejection. I sluggishly walked towards my humble abode, murmuring curses to Mr Roman Reigns. I arrived home and was shocked to see my water pot filled with water and I cautiously inspected my house to find no one in.

I carefully lifted up the water pot only to see a piece of paper under it. I hastened, only to remember Dele Giwa and immediately ran out. Nothing happened. I carefully opened it.

You are the bold and daring type, don’t worry anymore for I’m all yours from now on.

My joy knew no bound as I leaped up like the lamed man healed by Paul at the gate beautiful. I rushed up and prepared myself for celebration.

A few weeks later I received a letter of threat from the guy, he never knew who I was but I was determined to clean his asshole. I immediately went to the police CIB and filed a report. Soon EFCC and NAFDAC were on his tale. My beautiful queen and I started a sweet relationship. A few months later I heard that the drug lord had kicked the bucket by taking snipper to avoid arrest, I was thrilled because I had no more opponent.

I notified my mom in the city and she visited home and informed my relatives. Preparations commenced right away and I soon got married to my dream angel. In the course of time she discovered the real me and my empire, but preferred staying with me in the village.

A few months later she took ill and I immediately took her to the city for a medical check-up and care. I returned back to the village, leaving her in the care of my mom, but I always visit her. Nine months later she gave birth to a set of triplets.

I was the happiest man on earth as I took to organising a big and lavish party, went to church when it was due. Finally I bade the village goodbye as I returned back to the city to take over my estate.

Whenever I recall what I passed through before winning my wife’s heart, I always laugh like a crazy man. Love, they say, can make someone stupid at times, and I later found it to be true. Love is the sweetest gift of nature to mankind; it is sweeter when you find the right person to spend the rest of your life with.
