I've had romance moments in life, grade school, Junior Secondary, even Senior, now emphasis on 'moments', they were just moments, with each of their cute sparks.

But this one was different, it was different for it's reasons, and it was the first with that sort of spark, an amazing spark.

So this very moment in my life, I was seated there writing a song that was inspired by her, or should I say I wrote it with her in mind and no, it wasn't sensual. It was... hahaha... It was what it was, today's not about romance, the path to my 'future' was literally on the line here, so romance later — I really have no idea why this is making me almost blush, my lips keep contorting into a silly grin.

Well, I sat there whilst the rehearsals were on, instruments blazing and everything, and was doing my song writing, waiting for Mr Coordinator to come attend to me and give the go, so that the path to my future of impact could start.

Due to it being the preparation week for the convention, the choir ended their rehearsals earlier than they normally did — but I wouldn't know, their normal rehearsals time, was no business of mine.

Being the end of their rehearsals, they started dispersing and behold, Mr Coordinator was walking down towards the exit door through the aisles — the aisle close to me. Seeing as he was approaching I stood up to go after him, and caught up with him before he could get to the door, seeing as I was the one, he stopped and this time thankfully he waited.

"Ahh Big man you're here, oya let's hear it"

Of course the 'big man' was just gesture, and of course I had my smiles and head nodding with something along the lines of "Good day sir" to return the gesture— now disclaimer, it's been long and I'm not very sure the specifics of how he said this particular thing, but I'm sure it's something along those lines.

And of course I started, I had my beat record on my phone, and the part I haven't mentioned, this song I was to do, I had featured someone in it. Dude was good, he was a rapper, and I knew him, and he had a part to rap in this song.

Not even up to half way into my singing, I was cut short — of course not for any evil reasons you just thought.

When singing to him, I didn't play my record, neither was my partner with me, just my bare singing and the part I was to sing.

"Why not join the choir?"

Hearing this words from his mouth after he heard the few parts of the song, felt like a joke — an expensive one. Join what...? Who...? Me...? Why...? Nah...? At least those played in my mind for probably the first two seconds after I heard what he said.

"Ehn?" I blurted out

"Why not join the choir? Someone like you, would be good in the choir, why not join?"

Of course the 'Ehn?' was probably the one thing that was dominant in my mind — before the next words

"You think I should join the choir?"

"Yes"

"Now?"

"Why not?"

Hahaha, at this point I was laughing in my head, and of course it slipt out

"Haha ..." Of course with it out, it sounded like one of those moments when someone was out of words in an unforseen circumstance and could only laugh — of course too, that literally was the case.

"You should join the choir" he added.

Now whatever 'haha' my brain had, had to pause for me to actually think now.

No judgie now, remember how I said 'no way I'd be a choir boy'? Well at this point I wasn't so strong on that — now hold up, before you start spilling yaps. At this point in time, there'd been some changes in the choir, a new leadership and everything, so in my defense it wasn't the same. And also I'd just started my music path, and now I'm sort of seeing things a bit differently.

The idea wasn't still sounding all good, but it wasn't so bad either.

But still I wasn't just going to go in for it.

"Hah... Even if I'm to join, maybe after the convention, since you guys are all shocked up and everything, I'll be easier for me"

"No no no, now is the best time to join, now that they're many new faces joining it to officiate cause of the convention, it would be easier for you to mix, since most people are new"

Alright, now that was making some sort of sense, but even at that, I had other issues to consider now, if I was, and a big if, really big if, was to consider this whole new option, there were other things to be considered as well. This people were officiating people and they don't officiate naked, so I had to bring that up

"Even if I'm to join, I don't have officiating clothes"

I really had none, looking back my life up to that moment, I had never worn a suit before, and I mean worn, not even own, and now I'm supposed to be joining this suit wearing people to do official work? I wasn't even sure I had a standard shoe — so what did I have then, you ask...? Well I had what I had, period.

"Haha..." He started with a mild laugh — or something like that.

"Those things are not an issue, they'll come as you go"

"I don't have ties" just so he knows

"You have a black trouser right?" Haha, and you once asked what I had huh? Well here it is, I did have a trouser, so jokes on you.

"Yes" I answered

"Well that's mostly enough, if it's for ties, you can always meet me, but these things are not an issue, just start"

"So how do I start?" Ahem... You better don't judge, I mean was there any reason you're finding here that should deter me? I don't see one, so of course I'm asking how to start.

"Just join for our next rehearsals"

"Alright sir" well there you have it, here we go. So yeah, I said it. But of course, even if I wasn't opposed to this new whole thing, there was also the main reason I'd been sticking around — my auditioning.

" So sir what about the song I'm doing"

"Yeah" he nodded " you're good to go"

Haha, see? Told you I was good, you just didn't believe me

  • SHHSH LISTEN

    I couldn't really understand what was happening to me, it was my first heart break — rejection actually, but who's asking?I had no idea something could hurt that much —yet."With my heart damaged, this wound ran straight into the high throne of my soul and festered. Since the light that kept my day went dark, I found no reason to bask in any form of glow — not even daylight. Even moon light seemed toxic. So in my dark place I laid, my room cold and devoid of light, a perfect reflection of my heart. My stomach took no pleasure in earthly pleasantries and desired no food. My hands dettered from any appearance of work and my legs refused any function. It took a lot to convince my nostrils to accept the gift of life and my lungs to heed as well. It was an abysmal madness..."Yeah you wish. Going by this, I was bed bound in a dark room, curtains shut and light switches dismantled, no food nor desire to go about daily movement, the hell... Even if I remotely had this in mind, explain to

  • Broken Pot

    Why could the world be so cruel to him? Why 7 years apart? How was that even possible? But he could take an oath that she definitely wasn't above 18, how did she cross that and even still hit the margin she did? What was he to do now?Well whatever it was, it at least had to wait for him to process what he'd just ingested.Waves on waves, oceans rising on ocean floors, drifting tires on a concrete slab, and finally erupting volcanoes, these were the swivels his mind began navigating through. But like a crazy ship captain or probably straight up Superman — cause of the volcanoes— one thing remained constant "I damn like this girl"Like a planted mount this thought remained constant in all the raging swivels, then a new thread started to unfold...what's there? Why not? I can't bring myself to unfeel this feel, I just have to speed up my life to meet up hers, How would her family see me though, I can't be seen as not enough, so I got to buckle up, I need to get my life in order — fu

  • His First

    Life... D, is like a mango treeIt grows and grows, till it's convenient...makes no sense, I know Well like this mango-life tree, the embers in my heart kept at it, each smile, each day together, every joke that went through kept fanning it. This raging cluster wind, gunning for my heart's embers wasn't wild, it was like a soft meat that melted seamlessly in the mouth of a certified gourmet, like a flavoured ice cream in the mouth of a daddy's girl, like a spiced food that caused a stirring for more.Each day I could take a walk with her after her long day at work was rejuvenating, then our talks. Mmmh... They made this yound lad wished the days had more hours in em, cause no matter how long I stayed at her shop with her, time showed no remorse, just galavanting with tremendous speed and stealth.Watching her smile made me more sure that she was the one. Her lips that dangled made grapes sorry, cause they didn't have that much fruitiness in their being, it made this lad want them a

  • My Kids

    'Why me?' wasn't even a sentence I could afford to use, as the only thing I did was rush to Mr Head teacher's office to confirm. And "Yes only 5 subjects" was his response, and he said it with no atom of sentiment, like somehow somehow, miraculously, I was supposed to be aware of this, like it was some common sense knowledge that flew in the air that everyone was privil to. Talk about emotional damage then add a raise.On the other hand, joy mixed with my blood stream swarm to every corner of my body, breaking the realm and moving to my soul. Finally things made sense, for someone who had been managing to keep up with 12 subjects, 5 were definitely a walk in the park, some real soft bread.And you'd think life at work became easy. Well it did, for the most part of it.Just like any other thing the session ran it's course, and we were done with that term and session. Being my first fruits I loved those kids, being the first ones I had to experience teaching on a professional level wit

  • Day 18

    I didn't even have to do anything for my brows to rise to meet the unforseen situation, and it naturally remained raised as I looked at his exiting back for better clarification, which of course I didn't get. Now there I was, in-between the exiting back of Mr Head teacher and the expectant faces of the kids. I think a rephrase would be better; in-between an exited back of Mr Head teacher — cause it happened quite fast, and he almost left dust in his wake, or better still exit, you know what I mean.Of course it's not like I could remain stunned longer than necessary, I mean, the kids were really expectant. So I wore a bright smile, and went straight for it."Alright, good morning everyone""Good morning sir""Well, let's continue from that page... So firstly, what do you think is a gender?..."If you're being handed a gender discrimination topic, might as well start with making em know what was being discriminated, and what better way to indulge young souls than to pull them in with

  • Day 17

    My whole body was a matured tsunami.It would've been better if I could be like "I Flunked it" and that would suffice. But it really was a mess, and an 'I flunked it' wouldn't do.Have you ever ventured into something and wondered why that day in itself existed?If only I could see the future or something. And I really felt I could do this.After getting called in I stood in-between a board and eye piercing faces, it was no different from standing in-between a disliked wife and her all assuming in-laws, or standing in-between the girl you like and your bully who likes her, or something along those lines, I'm sure you get the point.Well standing in-between that board and those demonized faces— I think I meant focused faces, but whatever — I was stunned, I felt like I missed my house, at that point nothing would have done me better than just putting a pause on the day, and then a rewind, or probably a straight up delete and never to resurface, but we get what we get.Here I was, a guy
