Episode 4: Money Wahala.

I'm suing my bank account, and you have to be there.


Let's rewind.


The rain and sun had since bid farewell and left me with their relative—the wind.


You're already here.


I'd just received 10,000 Nigerian Naira. 


The joy wasn't to last.


Me: Why would I check my balance and see 5,999?


You: What happened?


Me: Subscriptions! And VAT and tax and everything in between!


You: Ah. At this point I feel there should be professional "money trackers.”


Me: You get.


You: So why are we suing your bank account?


Me: Good question. You'll find out in court.

                 (During interrogation)

Me: What do you have to say for yourself?


B.A: I have needs.


Me: With my money?


B.A: Our money.


Me:(In shock)


B.A: National crisis? 


Me: Don't you dare. I'll sue you.


B.A: Sue me.


You and Me: (exchange glances)


Me(again): Where were you on the night the money disappeared?


B.A: (smirks) enjoying your money. I don't have to explain anything.


Me: Just answer these questions. 


You and Me: (bring out our notebooks)


Me: What did you do with ₦50?


B.A: Service fee.


Me: How did the subscription apps know I had money?


B.A: I simply alerted them. Told them we're rich.


Me: Ah. 


You: What did you do with ₦1?


B.A: (grins) Just because I could. I do that to everyone. You're not special.


(Phone buzzes)


Me: Payment received?


Me: (checks) ₦5,996.


Me: Wait... You removed more?


B.A: You owed me!


Me: That's it. We're going to court.


You: (checking your account) right behind you.


O-kay! Welcome back. Let's talk.


Does your money also disappear before you get to spend it?? One minute I'm rich; the next, there's -₦3 in my account and I'm begging Airplane mode for data.


It's not even funny. At this rate, I won't be called broke. I'd probably be labelled impoverished.


Before you talk, can't you see it's a national crisis? Abi you're not affected?


Anyway, let me know what you think. This is the second to last episode.😫


Thank you guys for your patience and consistency. Much love!
