HOW TO TAKE CARE OF EXPENSIVE CLOTHES

HOW TO TAKE CARE OF EXPENSIVE CLOTHES

"KAMSI"!!

"KAMSIYOCHUKWU"!! her mum shouted from the sitting room. 

"Ooohmmm" Kamsi muttered from her sleep as she was trying to rouse herself. In this house, they can't even allow you to sleep in peace😪. Even in the dream, you would just be hearing them shouting your name up and down😢.

"Ma"!! Kamsi replied as she sluggishly walked to the sitting room to meet her mum whose feet were propped up on a stool as she was watching  "THE WICKED WIFE RETURNS" on AFRICA MAGIC EPIC her favourite channel whilst her mouth was moving in rhythm to the bananas and groundnut she was eating😋. 

"Ma" she answered again on getting to the sitting room where she met her mum "Obviously living her best life".

Which one is "ma"!! her mum quickly asked, while her face was on the television -"the scene where the other wife was trying to poison the husband was on".

"Blood of Jesus"!! ×2 it will not work as she outstretched her hands pointing to the TV.

 Mum, you know this is a movie and it's not real😏. What do you know? Her mum sat down and turned, giving her her full attention. Wicked people are everywhere she continued but as Christians, we have to be loaded.

 Mum, I am not disputing that Kamsi added she immediately stopped the argument as she had no energy to argue. That's how last week after they all watched a Christian Movie her mum insisted they anoint themselves every morning before going out.

 "Eehh" I called you to go pack the clothes outside. See the weather she said while pointing to the window from her seat.

"Okay ma", on getting outside Kamsi saw their neighbour's clothes she remembered she saw her spreading them in the morning as she saw her from the room. 

This troublesome woman😶, I won't touch her clothes because I don't have strength for her trouble🤨.

She packed her clothes and that of her siblings and came inside, locking the back door. She came to the sitting room to inform her mum she was done.

Mum, I have packed them she said, she met her mum firing prayers at the TV as the scene on the TV shows two persons exchanged in a power battle.

 Mummy she called, this time she turned to look at her daughter. I have packed everything except Mrs Edith's own, the neighbour. Why now? This time her mum sat down, how many times have I asked you not to pay evil with evil? 

Mum, you know how that woman behaves. The other day she told me not to touch her car so I don't dirty it because I wanted to take a picture in front of it😡.

"You left your father's Camry to go and snap a picture in front of another person's Benz. What do you expect??.

Her mum replied to her while still staring at her."Ehhhhh '', I know she acts up a lot just go and pack it. Drop it on the table on her backyard veranda okay?

Kamsi with an annoyed look on her face counted the clothes first and snapped pictures of them on the clothe line before she packed them. She dropped them and came into their flat.

             Later that day in the evening 

3hrs later around 6 pm a knock was heard on the door. Immediately Kamsi comes out to check who is at the door. As she opened the door, she saw Mrs. Edith with an annoyed look. Good Evening ma, Kamsi greeted but she didn't respond. She quickly showed Kamsi a particular blouse with the zip spoiled. Why did you have to tear my clothes while bringing it in? She asked, shoving the clothes to Kami's face. 

"No ma I didn't"!!

Are you sure this is among the clothes I brought in? Kamsi said, assessing the clothes, let me check my phone for the pictures. Mrs. Edith immediately dragged her hands back to prevent her from going in. That moment Kamsi's mother, after hearing the confrontation from Inside comes right out behind her daughter. 

She confronts Mrs.Edith asking her what the problem is. She begins to explain how she didn't ask for help and how Kamsi should have come to knock instead of packing the clothes as the spoilt one was imported from the United States and as such getting the zip would be a problem. 

"Ma '', this is Nigeria you can get anything here kamsi replied urgently, Kamsi's mum immediately gave her a side eye meaning she should shut up." I am sorry dear" 

There's no problem, she replied as she walked out back to her flat.

If it is not a problem then why should she bother coming?

" Mum ", I didn't do it. I know "Nwam"(my child)her mum answered as they both slammed the back door to lock it. That woman came for trouble but unfortunately, I have none to give her.

Me I have a lot, Kamsi replied as she strutted back into her room.

A few days later, Kamsi returned earlier than everyone due to the fact she had a running stomach. She immediately went to lie down after taking the drugs the pharmacist prescribed for her.

A few minutes in the rain started. Thank God I am back, kamsi replied as she got up and looked out to the backyard to see if any of her siblings' clothes were outside. She didn't see any, she only saw some clothes which looked like Madam Edith's clothes.

 "I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING" she immediately said as she laid back down and drifted off to sleep.

In the early hours of the night, while preparing dinner in the kitchen, someone came knocking and she asked her brother who was cutting tomatoes to go check who it was. He washed off his hands and went to the back door. 

"Good Evening" ma, 

"Good Evening"Jay-how are you?

I am good.

Can you help me call your sister, I can't seem to find the clothes she helped me to pack.

"Okay ma"  let me call her.

Jay came back to the kitchen after he narrated everything to his sister. She quickly instructed him to continue cutting the tomatoes while she attended to her.

"Good Evening ma" kamsi greeted her, "Good Evening kamsi". 

"Erm" my clothes I can't seem to find them. I hope they are not lost as they're expensive.

Which clothes Ma? Kamsi asked looking confused

This time Mrs.Edith folded her hands, one could see she was ready for war.

I mean my clothes, I sprayed in the backyard? Were you not around today? (Is her guts for me kamsi muttered below breaths🙄😏😤)

"Okay, ma I was not around though I came back early I didn't bother coming to pack any clothes as none of mine and my Siblings were sprayed. So I don't know about your clothes.

Mrs. Edith looked shocked and confused.

Are you saying this heavy rain that rained for over 3 hours beat my clothes?😩😠 

"Ma" I am not the clothes you should be asking. Kindly, check in the backyard and find out and ask the clothes they will be in a better position to answer you ma.

And the other day you said all your clothes are expensive right?

Mrs. Edith nodded in affirmation well, you know how expensive Clothes are? They are very selective and they need expensive people to pack them and you know I am not at your level, I am not expensive. I suggest you check the line if they're there. I only hope the rain didn't beat them to the floor. If so, they will be destroyed and they are all imported. I doubt if you will see any of them in Nigeria in case you want to replace them.

"What"! She quickly shouted trying to gather herself as she hurriedly left Kamsi's  flat to check for her clothes.

I would have given you a torch ma but mine is not expensive. Kamsi shouted behind her, she immediately locked her rail, slammed the door and locked it.

"Let it be known I didn't pay evil with evil Kamsi said as she resumed cooking".
