  • I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.

  • Tonight, my aunt's bar was brimming with customers, some drinking while others munched on peppered beef.

    I had come over to help her with the customers because most of her staff had left for the holiday.

    Just by the door of the bar sat a lone man, with 7 empty bottles of Heineken on the table before him.

    I had been serving him since he arrived shortly before 3 p.m., with his last order being ten minutes ago, around 7:15. The man never ordered meat, nor rice, nor the several grilled fish on our menu, just beer, beer, and more beer.

    I was beginning to worry that another sip from his almost-finished bottle would cause his already inflated stomach to burst, when the man called for me. I rushed over from the serving counter to meet him by the door.

    Me: You called me, sir.

    Him: *slurring* Yeeesss, cooome. Come... *pointing to other customers at their own tables*... Are those people or are those chairs or am I just drunk?

    Me: *smiling* Those are people, sir.

    Him: If theeey're people, then give theeem drinks, one bottle for each. If they're just chairs, organize them 'cause more people are coming.

    Me: *smiling cause I've just landed a good one* So, I should give everyone one bottle of drink?

    Him: Yes.

    Me: Okay, sir... *tries to leave but the man pulls me back by my shirt*...

    Him: Do you drinnnk, boyyy?

    Me: Yes, sir, I do. I do.

    Him: Then take a bottle, too. Take five if you want.

    Me: *smiling* Thank you so much, sir. Thank you.

    Him: Don't worry. I'm just happppyy today. Happyyy... *I try to leave but he calls me back again*... Wait, boy, is that a person passing on the road?... *he's pointing outside*...

    Me: Yes, sir.

    Him: Then give him a drink. One for the road... *looks back*... Who's that person behind your counter?

    Me: That's my aunt, sir.

    Him: Give her one bottle, too. One bottle for everyone.

    Me: Okay, sir... *I leave to our counter and begin serving everyone drink, courtesy of the man. Each person I offer a drink turns to the man with thanks blabbing from their oily lips*

    —10:25 p.m.—

    Most of the people in the bar have already left, but the man is still sitting near the door by himself. Since we'll be closing soon, I go over to offer him his bills...

    Me: *handing him the bill* This is your bill, sir.

    Him: *peers at the paper* So all these are the bills of the beers you gave?

    Me: Yes, sir.

    Him: How many did I take from here?

    Me: You took 8 bottles, sir. The remaining 61 bottles are the ones I gave out.

    Him: So, I'm also paying for the drinks you gave out?

    Me: *smiling* Yes, sir.

    Him: Are you stupīd? Why did you give people drinks without collecting money from them?

    Me: *heart starts pounding* But you asked me to give it to them, sir.

    Him: Did I ever say I was going to pay for their drinks, eh? Moreover, must you do what I asked you to do? So, if I ask you to jump into fire now, you'll do it.

    Me: But sir—

    Him: Don't but sir me... *slams some notes on the table*... This is 5 thousand naira for the 8 bottles of beers I drank. You can collect the rest of the money from the people you gave out the drinks to.

  • The love of money, often referred to as "greed" or "avarice," is an intense desire to accumulate wealth and material possessions. This can lead to an obsession with financial gain, sometimes at the expense of ethics or relationships. People who have an overwhelming love of money might prioritize it over other values such as love, integrity, or social well-being.

    In many cultures, the love of money is seen as a potential negative trait, as it can lead to selfish behavior and a lack of empathy for others. However, some also view financial ambition as a motivating force for personal achievement and success, as long as it doesn't harm others.

    The concept is often explored in literature, philosophy, and religion, with warnings against excessive attachment to wealth, such as the biblical saying, "For the love of money is the root of all evil" (1 Timothy 6:10).
