A Story Written By…“Hurry up Chris, my mum is already waiting for us.” My son said. I had promised to take them to the Amusement Park. “Wait, I’m speaking with my dad.” Chris said, holding his phone with his right hand andmaking a sign with his left hand, telling me to wait.
“Yes dad.” He said on the phone. “Where did you say your friend’s house is? I’m coming to get you immediately.” His dad was saying from the other end. “Dad, I’m not coming home today; we are going to the Amusement Park.”
“Amusement what? You grandma wants to see you.” “Dad, tell grandma that I’ll be seeing her as soon as I return, we’re already on our way to the Amusement Park.” “I’m coming to get you from there; you will have other opportunities to meet with your friend.” His dad said and ended the call.
“Mummy, wait, Chris is coming.” My son told me as I picked up the car key from the table. On our way to the Amusement Park, we stopped at the “Juice and Spice” and bought some snacks and drinks. “Mummy, get some egg roll too.” My son said pointing his hand to a “Juice and Spice” waitress who was giving some egg rolls to a customer. I bought some and got some ice cream, inaddition to some soft drinks.
We were held on traffic just before the Amusement Park; a trailer fell down and blocked the road. The security agents were trying to get the trailer off the road when my son opened the door of the car and went out. “Where are you going?” I called my son but he was keenly watching what was happening. Before I could stop him, Chris joined him and I saw myself following them.
“Mummy, we’ve even reached the Amusement Park; that’s the gate.” My son was pointing his fingers at the gate and I was just smiling deep within me.
“This boy is just behaving like his father.” “Chris, c’mon, let’s go inside the Amusement Park and begin to play.” My son dragged Chris with his hand and before I could stop them, they were opening the gate to the Amusement Park. I later joined them when the trailer was taken off the road.
As we were eating, drinking and watching the camaraderie of the charming species in the zoological garden of the Amusement Park, Chris’ phone beeped. “Hello daddy.” He answered the call. “Hello son, where are you in the Amusement
Park? I’m here with your grandma to see you.” “I’m in the zoological garden admiring the caged lions and zebra.” “I’ll be there in a minute.” When Chris saw his grandma, he ran and embraced her. I was chatting and smiling with my son when I saw Mr. Kayode hugging Chris. Was he his father? He was as shocked as I was when he saw me. “Dad, meet Odin, my friend and his mum.” “Good day sir, Chris has told me a lot about you.”
“How are you enjoying your small picnic?” Mr. Kayode asked my son. “It’s been great sir.” My son responded with a smile. “Chris’ dad, nice to meet you.” I said pretending as if I was just meeting him for the first time.He shot an incredulous look at me and I saw myself almost stammering.
