My wife came back from work yesterday looking disturbed. As soon as she sat down, she said, “There’s one guy that has been following me at the bus stop.” At first, I didn’t take it too seriously.

And the sad part is, people like that never move forward. They’re too busy watching others instead of building anything meaningful for themselves. At some point, you just have to accept that not everybody around you is happy for you. There’s nothing more dangerous than someone who is okay losing… as long as you’re not winning.

You’ll think everything is normal, not knowing someone around you is uncomfortable with your growth. It’s a very dark mindset. Imagine not focusing on your own life, but sitting down and thinking, “If I can’t have it, then you too shouldn’t have it.” That’s bitterness.

There’s this kind of evil mindset that some people have. They just don’t want to see you win. If you have listened to Maximum Damage by BNXN (Buju). You’ll hear, “Cause if they can’t have it, you can’t have it… you see that mentality, just tragic.” That thing is real.

@OyJeshurun Sudden sharp pain. I just slept after everything.

@ebedeegram That feeling 😭😭

I ended up being played today in the craziest way. After service, I decided to some fruits from the supermarket. I was already very tired. But I didn’t have much of a choice, so I got it. When I got to the bus stop, I met a large crowd of people waiting.

@OyJeshurun Dream ke? At all o 😭

@ebedeegram You lost everything keh? Shey this one nobe dream?

By the time I got home, I handed my wife the fruits like nothing happened. I couldn’t tell her what had just happened. Especially how I decided I was going to take the cash that didn’t belong to me. Whenever she notices my other phone was not with me, I will explain myself.

Somehow, in that short moment, he had quietly taken back the cash and left just N200 for me. I just shook my head and laughed in disappointment. I kept looking outside the window just to see if I could get hold of the bus. I never saw them.
