Mummy,please what is kpai?"- Jimoh asked as he moved close to me while doing dishes.
Chai,where did my little oga pick this vocabulary from? I muttered as I rolled my eyes.
His sister,Jumoke joined as she moved closer to us showing interest.
The 2 pairs of innocent eyes shinning with demand for an explanation.
Shebi I am the one raising confident and expressive children,so I can't but deal with this.
"Okay angels,where did you pick the word from? Tell me and I will tell you the meaning". I responded.
"I heard it while Uncle Sam and his friends were gisting yesterday about an incidence reported on TV" Jimoh explained.
"Oh okay, kpai is a street word that is also used online meaning d.eath.It is used instead as a coded word.So who "kpaied"?I asked trying to get more information.
"Mummy but that word sounds so funny kpp...kpai.....kpaaaiii...They both burst into laughter and gave me the full gist.
They pick words. Everywhere. In your presence and your absence. Good and bad words. In all, always create an avenue to ask you questions. Answer as best as you can. If you don't,they will still find out.
"Parenting is not child's play at all".I chuckled as I wiped my hands with a napkin and dragged my tired body out of the kitchen.
Who knows what the next word they will ask me will be?
"This pain is unbearable.My ni*pp is about to fall off" Felicia screamed as tears steamed down her cheeks.
Her mum ran out of the kitchen hastily. "Oh has it become so unbearable? Sorry,na the baby's sucking go still heal am,endure biko".
"Endure what? Heal what? I said my ni*p is falling off.Please take the baby.I can't do this again" Felicia groaned in pain.
Her husband Jerry stood watching helplessly thinking: Which kain wahala be dis? Are we going back to the hospital,does it need a surgery? She's still in pain after CS.
"Oh Lord,mummy you didn't tell me there is another round of pain after childbirth.My ni*pp is on fire". She leaned back on the sofa in agony.
"At this rate,I have to dash out to the supermarket to get a baby formula" Jerry said as he looked as confused as scattered puzzles.He grabbed his keys and left.God abeg oh.Is this what raising a baby entail? Can they just tell us all we need to know before we embark on this journey." He soliloquized
"No be lie,na the baby's sucking go still heal am.Make I make you food take painkiller and rest.Ndo- Mama repeated.
This sounded like the most absurd sentence to Felicia as her tears blinded her.
"If this ni*pp falls off,how will my life be?This pain and soreness she never bargained for
It is not part of the package at all. At all At all.

No gree for anybody."
Our unofficial slogan as youths for 2024.
The advantages of being a Nigerian is priceless (choose the lens you want to view with).
The tenacity is unparalleled.
The resilience as a nation is to be studied.
Choose your "not greeing" but let it include humanity,good values,kindness,respect, positive energy, right knowledge,skills and impact.
Then keep up with the coconut head and raise the tempo.
2024 came fully prepared.
We are ain't we?
Loving the year already and I no go gree,it has to love moi too.😘
