I rushed to the bathroom to shower and brush my teeth. I dressed up and picked my remaining credentials, some other things And by 6:08, I’m done and ready.
By this time, segun was busy downloading my credentials from my mail. We both walked out and I locked the door. He followed me to the taxi and we boarded the taxi together, he showed me how to access my contacts from my email and behold, all my phone contacts was backed up on my phone. I checked for my uncle’s number and dialled it.
ME: hi sir
UNCLE: hi, who is this?
ME: onihaxy sir
UNCLE: what happened to your line ?
ME: my phone was stolen sir, so a friend borrowed me his phone.
UnCLE: anyways, where are you?
ME: at the park.
UNCLE: by this time?. I expected you to be almost here by now, this is 7:05am
ME: I will soon be there sir. Akure to Ado is just 45minutes sir.
UNcLE: ok, safe journey
ME: thanks sir **hanged up****
Segun and I arrived at the park by 7:12am, he gave me the phone and promised to keep intouch and also ensure to tell the guy to scan and send the stuffs to me. Segun returned home and I sought the service of the food sellers at the park to fill my tummy before the bus was filled up.
At about 7:35, the bus was filled up and set to move.
I was in the bus and I downloaded all the files into the memory card. The phone battery was at 55% and segun didn’t give me his charger. Oppps!!!!, I even forgot to collect the card reader from him.
