After the system pause for a while, e come talk again, voice dey excited small:

[Omo, host, you go believe? From this month, Book Traversal Bureau don bring new style. You fit choose one out of two strategy targets!]

If na real person, system for dey do shaku-shaku now. E voice dey carry ginger.

[No vex, I sleep off for afternoon meeting. I just ask my colleague now before I understand.]

So system dey sleep too? If I tell people now, dem go say I don dey mad.

[So, you wan change target this time?]

Na the kind question wey family dey ask person wey dey write JAMB for the third time. 'You sure say na medicine you go still write?'

[Bashir Danladi fine too o, but all these fine boys dey always get wahala. Even me, my mind dey shake.]

I snort. System sef get taste.

No be only the system—me sef don dey fear.

Nobody wan dey chop L for love matter. Na so so heartbreak dey everywhere.

After dem kill me five times—sickness, stray bullet, accident—normal and abnormal deaths, my body no strong again.

Person fit think say na Nollywood script. If dem dey share award for resilience, I suppose win.

Before before, I fit still dey dream say Tunde Ajibade go love me.
