The Adventures Of Oko Ashawo The Uber Driver - 70

Being an open minded person and also a good conversationalist comes with good and bad...

There is also one essential thing I do each time I am with a client, which is to add value. This has ensured repeated business referrals.

However, I find myself in a quagmire sometimes because I tend to get very close to my customers especially the opposite sex. A lot of times, I am accused of not looking out for them or even saying just a “simple hello” on WhatsApp.

There is this single lady, Martha who is in her 40s that I have been offering my cab service for about 3 years now. She is from a wealthy home and she’s doing very well for herself in business. Once in a while, when she does not feel like driving, she requests for my services and I also help her do some deliveries.

Since the beginning of this year, she has been asking me to come over to see her at home as she has something very private to discuss with me. I have been skeptical about this but decided to finally give in to her request to visit last month.

While at her place around 6pm, I felt quite uneasy because she wore a very revealing skimpy dress. A lot of things ran through my mind but I just couldn’t put a grasp on what her mission was. She asked that we have our discussion over dinner and drinks as she had already prepared something sumptuous.

 Hmmmmmm…….

We talked about things in general, joked, laughed and then she proceeded to ask me about my future plans in the areas of business expansion and when I intend to settle down to get married. I told her of my business growth plans and also told her that I am yet to find the right person to settle down with; not with all the “loose” girls one meets almost a daily basis in the course of my work.

(Abeg, I no talk say I be saint o…)

She then told me she really likes me very much but feels that I may not want to marry her because of the age difference between us. She said she does not intend to marry anymore as men have taken advantage of her in the past because of her perceived wealth.She said all she wants is to have a child as time is no more on her side. She said she carefully chose me because of my good looks and intelligence as she wants her child to be good looking and intelligent too.

She asked that we have a discreet affair and when she gets pregnant, she’ll relocate outside the country and take care of the baby all by herself. She told me she would support my business by getting me more cars and assist monetarily also from time to time.

I told her to give me some time to think about these things and will get back to her shortly.

I’ve not been myself ever since she made this offer as I have been having sleepless nights. Seeing free money and knowing my business can expand is a very tempting offer. Nevertheless, can I be at peace knowing that I have a child somewhere that I don’t have any access to? When I eventually get married, can I hide this from my wife and my family members that I have a child outside?

 Martha has been calling me almost on a daily basis to know what my response is but i am yet to tell her a YES or No.

Make i still dey think am!

*You be mumu!!!

Ozuor!

Ode!

Is it not the same sperm that throw away every time you gbensh those useless babes? So the people that donate sperms to sperm bank dont sleep at night?

What is the big deal with having a child that you will want to hide it from your wife and family? What kind of cupboard mentality is this?

Some people will come in here to preach that you should not do it, if you listen to them you be mumu..
