(At the corner of the street with music oozing out of loudspeakers of a man selling DVDs, an older lady pulled off the street to a corner a younger lady by their looks to where there is shelter and they started discussing)
A 36 years old lady was discussing with a 27 years old lady in the Island of ZunZun of why she was yet single.
"When I was in the University few years back, I was engaged with a guy. Immediately after our graduation, the guy travelled out of our Island to another continent. We have been in very good rapport and our communication was free flowing until he left our Island.
However, before he left our Island, we have mapped out strategies on what and what we shall do after our graduation, but when the issue of travelling out came to the fore we coined out other strategies on how we would get married, and what we shall do afterwards.
Everything seemed to be perfectly in order as he left the Island. Things were still going on as expected until 36 months after his travelling out that things changed, and he backed out of the relationship. If not for God, I would have committed suicide.
Meanwhile, before he left our Island, some of my friends have also been opportuned to travel out of our Island.
When the unexpected separation occurs, these friends of mine started introducing me to some of their male friends in other Islands where they live and the relationship will work for a while, but later it would break up.
In The Island where I am, those guys coming to me were not serious, all they are out for is sex, and by the time I asked them to wait until we go for our introduction, they would then elope.
So within our Island, no stable partner, and the supposedly stable partners from other continents would say they are working on how to get things perfected between us and that has been the trend of things.
I have therefore discovered that this is the strategy of the enemies on me, and now, I am wiser, I wont rely on anyone whom I cannot reach easily because time is not on my side.
I thence want to advise you young lady, not to be too much dependant on someone who is millionth of miles away and who says he is in love with you, such people eventually turned out to be time wasters, a person nearby is better than someone millionth of miles away. Dont fall into my very same mistake under the canopy of I want to marry a foreigner... She concluded.
"Thanks a bunch aunty", the younger lady replied as they walked back to the now crowded street, to the bus stop where the lady would wait for the next bus that she would board to where she is going…they keep on talking in hushed tone….
