I once lived with an arrogant neighbor. The guy just didn’t have manners at all. You would greet him in the morning, and he would take a few seconds before responding. Sometimes, I wondered what was always going on in his mind before answering a simple greeting. Even when there was a general compound meeting, if he managed to show up, the meeting would always end like a semi World War II.
So, on this particular day, I was sitting outside enjoying some fresh air when he locked his room and was about to go out. As he walked out, shaking his body like a woman, his key fell from his pocket, and he didn’t notice. Trying to act like a good neighbor, I called his attention, but he looked at me and kept going.
I smiled to myself and said, "He has entered one chance. He’ll have to beg before I give him this key. If not, I’ll return it to where I picked it." Later that evening, he returned and only then did it dawn on him that he had misplaced his key. He began moving up and down like a dog that is pressed. Eventually, he came to me and asked if I had seen his key around. I looked at him, smiled, and said, "When you were busy twerking up and down and I called your attention, what did you think I wanted to tell you? Oga, go and find your key or start begging."
He stood there trying to form, but in the end, his ego came down and he started begging. 🤣🤣🤣
