"Dancing!" Veronica exclaimed. "I know what you are! You're a dancing magician, like the ancients danced to make it rain. Come on, friend, dance and create a storm, make a deluge in enemy territory!"
Damian didn't need to be asked twice. No matter what situation he was in, when it came to dancing, there was no stopping him. He wiggled his hips and hands in high spirits and began to dance
Veronica watched him and said, "That's not how ancients people dance." But Damian took her by the hand and made her turn around, saying, "I'm not an ancients man!"

THE FEAST AND THE COURT JESTER
As we drove into the Venue I couldn’t help the wave of emotions that flooded my entire being, everyone who was anyone was present, it was indeed a feast for the creme de la creme of the Nigerian music industry.
“There’s Banky and Adesuwa, we should say hi after your performance, he is headlining next year and if you do well enough tonight it could position you to be included on the line up,” Remi said to me.
“That would be a dream come true” I responded, my heart beating faster than the kick drums on a drill beat.
“Where is Ruth and your costume? You need to change and wait in the green room until it is time to perform” She said to me as she slid the car into a parking spot.

“Did I die?” Ingrid thought, starting to breathe intensively. Just what in the world was going on?. Searching for something in the unlimited white she turned around. There she found Sheila, waving her tail while barking as if trying to prevent her from something. Ingrid was relieved, at least she wasn’t alone in that weird turn of events.
“She has grown since the last time we met” A voice echoed in the whiteness. Ingrid recognized it.
“George?” She turned to the voice. There was her husband wearing the very same jacket she had and jeans. He just loved that lumberjack cliché clothing. “What… what are you…”

I swallowed.
"Mr. Cooler, no one has ever talked to me about that thesis that way. It's been many years. Two decades of oblivion, because people said it was unsustainable."
Mr. Cooler's voice laughed at my comment.
"Nonsense, kid. I'm 60 years old and your idea is something that needs to be squeezed. Don't you get tired of studying? Don't you want to make money?"
I swallowed again.
"Are you hiring me in your company?"

“Ohh you’re…”
“the_fabulous_pete, yeah” he replied.
“I’m sorry I didn’t reply to your dm”
“It’s okay, can I sit?
“Sure”
“So what are you doing in Unimed?”
“Your bio says you're a masters degree older in public health relations” she explained.
“You checked my bio? Wow”

The village had a volleyball court, and I was happy because I love volleyball. I asked one of our senior colleagues if the villagers were good at volleyball. He laughed, saying "The villagers have never scored a single point in a volleyball match since I came to this village". I was shocked by this and asked him, "Have you guys tried coaching them?" He played "no.". I said to him "I will coach them". He looked at me and laughed "It will take them 10 years before they can understand the game".
