Okay you know in a situation where you already have a thought or believe that you’re going somewhere and you want to use up to an hour or 30 minutes and you later find yourself using almost 3 hours that is how the life in Lagos can actually be an, especially if you are going on a trip to the market you can never be sure of what you meet there. Lagos is really a busy place and I should be able to know better that the market trip is not going to be a quick journey but the last one I went was actually different because I wanted to get some food stuff which my friend will be using to make the meal.
So I had to trek to be able to get to the market because I do not want to waste money for transportation before getting to where I want to and the day I was talking about is a weekend where most people won’t go to work and actually it is going to be very tight around early hour of the day. The market is already full with a lot of people trying to get things and different noise from different traders and also those who are trying to buy something it was a very loud voice from different people, also different music were playing from different stores.
So normally anytime I go to the market. I always put my phone or things that I know are very precious to me. So on this day I was moving along the crowd and different people are just hitting each other body and if you’re not conscious or vigilant a lot of things will be stolen from you and you will not be able to know who exactly took it because it is a crowded area and you cannot challenge anybody.
I got the spot where I want to get some pepper and other spices and I checked through what I needed and everything was present and even though the price is a little bit high, but I understand the economy that it is somehow, so after getting everything I needed at that particular place I calculated everything and it was a bit high though I did not have choice and it’s time for payment. I checked my wallet but I could not find my phone since it is transfer i will make.
Due to my impatient, I started panicking not knowing the phone was still with me and under my armpit, but I could not remember when I put it there not only for me to let her find out that the phone was in my armpit for a while after I got to the place I wanted to get those things I will be needing to cook and that moment I actually made up my mind that the phone has gone not know also if the phone has been in another place I’m at actually not also see it since I did not put my mind dear that it is not in my wallet again, only for me to find it in the armpit.
If you’re not strong enough to stay with crowd should stay away from going to market especially a crowdy one because you will surely lose something
