AMERICANA'S DIARY VI: NOT TOO LATE
"What is it about Shabado? " Bodmas asked
" You know when we finished from secondary school, he could not further his education claiming that he is the only child of his parents and that his parents asked him to go and marry", Dee said, taking a bite of the pie as he looked at Bodmas
"I don't think I have inkling into this part of the story of his life, but, I know that he did not further his academics and had to marry Yaby baby whom he has been close with since our JSS 3 days", Bodmas said. 
"Thank gracious that you know the lady he married. But, the story that led to his marriage after our O Level is what I am telling you now... "
" Hen hen ", Bodmas said surprisingly 
" He is the only child of his parents, and his parents are aged by the time we finish from school, they thus have to tell him to make them happy by marrying someone when they were yet alive. And since Yaby baby and Shabado had been closely walking he decided to make the walk a deeper one which Yaby knew and approved of and that was how he presented her to his parents", Dee said
"Even then we all know that Yaby baby was just struggling academically, she was not above average in class, so when something like that was raised with her, according to what Shabado told me afterwards, she was partly happy and would want to know what she will be doing when they were married", I added.
"Yaby baby also took Shabado to her parents", Dee continues "on getting to her parents there was no problem, because her parents also know that she was not sound academically and had just been praying that she will at least finish her secondary school, because according to her mother, she would have been employed as one of the clerks in the Local Government Secretariat but, because she did not finished her secondary school that was why such could not happen"
I continued from where Dee stopped, "her parents therefore were guiding against the occurence of that for their daughter, so they keep on supporting her, encouraging her because sometimes, Yaby baby would tell her parents that she was not interested in going to school again, eniti ko kuku ka iwe na ngbe inu aiye, her parents said she would say" I added.
"This often times makes her parents to send her to coaching class, all because they do not want her to cry in the future ", Dee enthused.
" I know she was not the brilliant one", Bodmas said. 
"When she took Shabado to her parents, they were happy but asked him what he plans to do for their child because family development requires the combine efforts of both hubby and wife, and Shabado said he told them that their daughter has said s he is interested in learning how to sow clothes and that she will enrol with a woman after their solemnization" Dee said.
"Having gotten the consent of her parents arrangement for the wedding started and they got married December 24th, 2000. I was there with some other alumnites ", I added.
" Waoh! That is good. After our exams, I travelled with my uncle to Lagos and I did not come back to this area until after our results were released, in fact the first time I come around I did not stay more than 10 days, what makes my staying reach that duration was because our principal was not around and I was asked by my uncle to come with my result so that he will know the next step we will take on my academics. Immediately I got the results, I left the following day for Lagos. It was when I got to University that I came across Faglo he was the one who told me that Shabado and Yaby baby have twins... "
Interrupting Bodmas" their first issue was twins ", I said
" But what does Shabado do for a living? "Bodmas asked
" He is into buying and selling, tailoring material " Dele said
" While Yaby baby sows cloths or is that not? Bodmas asked.
"Yes it is " I replied
" Uhmn. But this I guessed is not what you want to tell me about him", Bodmas said 
(Watch out for VII)
