So a few months after my 18th birthday I decided that I was now a big babe with mind.

And so I made plans with my friends to go for a late night party.

I knew my parents would not allow me to go.

So I made plans with my best friends to sneak out of the house.

And be back in before 5:30 when my parents wake up.

The great day (abi night) came.

I dressed up in my “baddest babe in Nigeria” outfit.

Made sure my make up was on fleek.

That’s how I got downstairs to the sitting room and saw my mother.

But wait, there’s more oh!

Her whole women’s fellowship was there, doing prayer meeting!

I was there in my bad gang clothes and make up.

Stammering and sweating…

That was how I joined our church’s women’s group that very night.

And ended up doing prayer meeting while my friends grooved the night away.

I also had to apologise to my mother almost everyday for six months!

Any small thing “is that not how you wanted to do night waka waka?”

“Children of these days have spoiled!”

I wish I could say I learned my lesson…

I just learned to be more careful!
