Abena wakes to the heat of cold sweat as her older brother’s voice reaches her. Abena, wake up, mama is calling you; he says gently as he taps on her. Something happened. Someone got electrocuted yesterday night in from of Maame’s mother’s shop. The moment Abena heard those words she got up immediately . What happened to our future in laws? She asked half asleep with genuine surprise and curiosity. The question made her brother blush but, snaps back to reality immediately he realizes and remembers that the person asking was Abena. His face gets serious. Mama told me to tell you that the lights will be off the whole day and so, go and buy, water and some ice to fill and keep the fridge cool otherwise her things will spoil. Okay and what about our future in laws? Abena asks in reply to her brother’s message to which he quickly answers; Mama has sent you. And then, he tries to leave.
As, Abena steps out to do the tasks she’s assigned she sees Valerie sitting inside her shop near the entrance practicing a sketch on her tablet (which has a stand). Good morning, Abba. Abena greets Valerie. Good morning sis, Valerie greets back. Where to? Mama has sent me to buy water and ice before the ice is sold out. “ Oww, I didn’t think much of this. Dumsor times like this can make you money. I should have been selling it. Either ways, go and come safely.” Valerie says. I’ll be back, Abena tells her. On her way to town, while sitting in a trotro, Abena remembers that she said no prayers and didn't read her bible before beginning her day. The moment she start praying secretly in the car, an accident nearly occurs prompting her to pray with all seriousness. The bus had broken down and one trotro which was moving in the opposite direction nearly did a dangerous bump into her trotro. Mummy, that trotro nearly bumped into our own. And one teen old looking sister shouted "Bump kɛ. There is a huge difference between human beings bumping into each other and two vehicles bumping into each other oh".The mate and driver see that there is money to be made but I am seeing my life. I won't die young the teen lady said under her breath. But those closer to her heard her words including the mate who was about to confront her when the driver called him to check something in the cars engine. Abena looks directly at the front seat right behind the driver to see one content creator recording the whole incident. I'm definitely sure this will trend on social media within the days to come.
Another man start a brand new discussion about how trotros often tend to look old and can sometimes feel unsafe. He started this conversation with his friend beside him narrating how a similar incident happened. The public gist of the day. Everyone is the trotro was listening with professional patience and genuine curiosity when a market woman swiftly joined the conversation with her own experience. Appreciating the cherry on top of the gist, the teen happily said, "experience has entered the chat" with joy. Abena was like in her head, what's better than premium gist, money and food? Eii and salvation she quickly remembered. She begun to ponder if listening was also part of gossiping. But waiting oh, they are sharing experiences not someone's disgrace so this is experience so I should learn from it. I hope I am not doing the wrong thing. She says to her self while going back for more. Just then, the mate came back with disturbing news. Everyone unless you go with another car, ours is broken down. He announced.
