Family Ouse 3

Ihuoma Chidire | Thursday 6 October 2016 | |
Ada was spending more time touching up her face these days. Noticeably, her shapy khaki and even OUSE clothes were now always dry cleaned by Deji, the Batch B dry cleaner for the ouse.

The meticulous change became obvious about a week back, and Unfortunately Abimbola, one pepper-body sister who was DEEP na ndu and the Spirit, noticed too.

Abimbola was Chizzy's annoying bunky, who had an OVERDOSE of anointing only she could carry, save maybe, the state Excos and a few reluctantly-accepted Spiros in the ouse, all by her standards of course. Twasn't a good one that she NOTICED Ada's efforts, atalll. Twasn't a good something.

Abimbola rather LOOKS BITTER, VERY bitter. That one?! Yoyo BITTERS! It often feels like she's bitter about her 24/7 scarfed hair, her PLENRY puffed blouses, even PLENRIER shoulder-padded SHUITS, her life, her faith, and of course, Ada.
Or maybe it's just Ada convincing herself that Abimbola bears her bitter grudges. But seriously, the sister's bitterization suppose get family tree.

Ada always unsolicitedly reminded Chizzy that,
"...your bunky's bitterness is hereditary o. She even now looks like granny on top the bad belle sef. Whoever shared the gene in the family must have been more generous with Bimbo's share, I'm sure."

"Ada I've told you to free my bunky biko." Chizzy would laugh, somewhat grateful someone HAD her bunky's TIME. The negative vibes from Bimbo had fast taken its toll on the now very-strained bunky relationship.

"You better tell yaself the truth o, your bunky would choke herself with her sanctimonious cloak very soon, it's high time even, her own akarigo (is now excessive)! She's sha lucky oburo (she's not) my bunky, she'ud have received salvation anew, FRESH from Je-su-sssss!" She sang-said the Jesus and shook her head for emphasis.

The whole Bimbo/Ada's feud began early, very early when Batch Bs' came to the ouse. Abimbola showed her colour from day one, she'd occupied the upper bunk of bunk 3 in the lengthy Zion's Gate, the Sisters' common room, so Chizzy had gratefully taken the lower bunk of the same bunk 3, happy to have secured a much desired lower bunk. Only for Pepper Body Bimbo to return from her two weeks travel some weeks after and claimed the lower bunk. She eyeballed the overly shocked and sickened Ada all the spiro-lie while, calling Chizzy, "this greedy little sister here..."

That had been it, Ada did not hide her irritation after that. Twas obvious she'ud make no effort to bear Chizzy's bunky's excesses.
She practically replayed the scene with Nenye the very next day.

"Nenye! Move up bunk! I can't stay up bunk in my life!" Ada began. Nenye caught the joke,

"I don't get you Sis Ada, you've been up all along and I'm already settled down here. I'm sorry I can't move up."

"SEE! Respect yourself and MOVE UP!" Ada snapped, winking at Nenye. Nenye almost laughed out, warming up to the joke even more. The irony was, Nenye stays up the bunk she shares with Ada, so every Sister in Zion's Gate that afternoon knew something was up. 

Chizzy was hysteric, though the day before's drama had embarrased her, she'd stayed put in her space and didn't loose her cool. She however tried to salvage her bunky from the onslaught,
"Adaaa, why disturb the peace this afternoon, aint you down bunk already?" She asked from across the room.
"Eh o, Sister, are you the one wearing the shoe to know where it pinches?" Ada retorted, making no effort to wipe the broad smile growing on her face.

Chizzy let her be, experience had taught her to. For when Ada went rascally, everybody paid dues, bossom friend or not.
"Please someborri should tell this greedy little sister here to get off my bunk space o, before I loose my salvationi?!"

Nenye eyeballed her mildly, she was taller and easily bigger than Ada without effort, but she knew this was her cue to give the reply they had agreed Chizzy should have given the annoying Sister yesterday. She wasn't about to disappoint Ada's exagerated replay of yesterday's drama,
"See you, BITTER fake Spiro! So LIAR is also one of your many titles?! Why are you so bitter eh? Why are you bira?! Christianity is not by force o, don't come and be acting like Jesus made you bitter. See, if christianity was your type, I'ud be heathen! Loose salvation ni, as if you had one before!"

Ada was overjoyed, the weight of Nenye's voice had carried the message across better, even the way sisters in the room held their breathe proved the hammer had reached home, she decided to drop the play, "I've told you o, bera move up and save your sermon for evangelism tommorrow!"
That act never went down well with Abimbola, her dislike for Ada doubled over. She abhorred Ada's effontery. 

And Ada has guts, PLENRY, it sure sticks in Abimbola's face too.

So when after fellowship on sunday, just outside the santuary, Bimbo in her bitterish mode said TOO LOUDLY, "Obviously all this exceptional care in appearance is tied to a brother!"

The clock's tick slooowed...
