After a long week of work, I told my friend that I needed a treat. He quickly suggested an outing and assured me that he had the perfect spot in mind.

Naturally, I imagined a cool place with dim lighting, soft music, and a serene environment.

Later that Friday evening, my friend arrived at my house to pick me up. He came along with his girlfriend. I joined them, and we headed out. When we got to the place, it wasn’t exactly what I had imagined, but it was manageable since I didn’t have much of a choice.

We were just sipping some glasses of red wine when, suddenly, guys started trooping in, smoking, shouting, and creating a lot of noise. The DJ didn’t help matters either; he increased the volume to the highest level. At that point, I knew it was over. I was no longer comfortable.

I tried to endure it for a while, but when I couldn’t take it any longer, I told my friend to drop me off and return to continue with the noise if he was enjoying it. He laughed and asked, “Aren’t you enjoying the treat?”

I replied, “Which treat? Ikpa, this is not a treat, it’s noise pollution!”
