Hey guys, it's Valentine's Day. Happy Valentine's Day to you all. Hope you're celebrating with style. I'm not lol since I'm in the single to stupor gang 😂

Well, I came here with a story.

So, I was standing at the junction in our estate, waiting for the shuttle bus. While waiting, one guy, John was asking another guy, Philip why he opened his shop when he was supposed to take his babe out for valentine. (I gave them random names lol)

As John dey talk, Philip was clueless as to what he was saying.

"You no go carry your babe go out?" Josh asked, Philip had a look of confusion on his face.

"Go out, why?" he gestured with his hands, expressing his confusion to the question.

"Wetin be today's date?" John asked.

"What's happening today?" The confusion still maintained on Philip’s face.

"Today na 14 bros" John said.

More obvious confusion for Philip.

"Eh, wetin dey happen today?"

"Na Valentine na" John already getting frustrated by Philip's obvious ignorance with the event of the day.

Philip shrugged and waved at him then went back to his shop to start work.

The conversation was a little funny and it brought back memories of how valentine has been for me in the past.

I remembered the best valentine gift I got was a book. A Hannah Montana book and it was great since I loved reading. This was in primary school.

The other gift I could remember was from a boy I didn't like, still in primary school. The boy wasn't my favorite person but I got Mr. Biggs from him. I can't remember what I gave out. Probably a mug or jug.

We were in primary school and were asked to bring what we can to show love to each other.

When I was in secondary school, there was this guy I kinda liked, he liked me also and I think he told me to come on Valentine’s Day to school or he asked me if I was coming to school.

Valentine in secondary school then, was more of cruise than real love. Only in few cases you could see the real love thing and that’s between the guy and girl that likes each other and want to do something special but most times na cruise. And also, for the singles to be ‘Awwing’ like owls hooting at night 🤣🤣🤣

I Sha did nor go that day, can't remember the reason but I didn't go. The next day or so, he told me he brought me a present for valentine. I wasn't expecting but I was happy.

He then looked me in the eye and said he had to give it to someone else.  😂😂🤣

I was a bit sad though but I asked what kind of gift. He said a teddy bear, perfume and… I can't remember the rest but yeah. That's valentine for me in my over twenty years of living.

Also, I just remembered one. My former best friend gave me a valentine’s card I think in our senior year in secondary school. I kept that card till we left secondary school and beyond and even when we lost contact and stopped being best friends. I kept it but I think a year or two after high school graduation, my twin mistakenly burned the card and I swear I wanted to cry. It was like my heart was ripped from my chest and torn in a million pieces.

I'm looking forward to reading stories from everyone. Single-Pringles, Single to Stupor, Single and Searching, Taken and Single, Happily Taken, Taken and Partly Married, Happily Married.

Happy Valentine's Day guys, have a blast 😊
