Have you read the latest gist in town!! If not this is it
Its story time, read this to the end!
The area of land marks the boundary between the East and the North Central part of Nigeria is characterized by rolling hills and deep valleys. One of such wide valleys is enclosed on all sides by hills that rise slowly from the valleys bed. And found in this valley is a cluster of houses that look like they are cupped protectively by large hands. The beautiful land of Dufil!
Dufil is a community that is blessed with many good things that nature can give: wide fields of grass in which animal find shelter; clear streams and springs that delight the eyes; rich fertile land which supports plant and animal life; and a cool serene atmosphere that makes the inhabitants look with gratitude towards the almighty creator of all things.
A long time ago, when Dufil was still emerging from its old ways and was about to embrace civilization and modernity fully, there lived in it a happily married couple, Daniel and Marycynthia. They had been married each other out of love and respect. They had been married for a long time but were yet to be blessed with the fruit of the womb. In spite of this lack, they were still happy, and they continued to bless the name of the creator upon whom they waited patiently.
Daniel was a tall man whose dark skin and lean figure were the result of long days in the farm under the harsh sun of the tropic region. Already approaching fifty years, Daniel still stood strong, and the many veins that cascaded down his arms gave the impression of strength and handwork. He seldom smiled, and this usually made people who did not know well mistake him for an unhappy person. But Daniel was really happy and friendly.
His wife, Marycynthia, was a sharp contrast from him: very light skin; less than five feet tall; a rich almost rotund figure; and a bright friendly countenance. Daniel's wife radiated that inner joy and contentment that made her unique and cherished wife, and her husband found no reason to wish for another woman. And despite the pronounced difference between their ages, Marycynthia loved her husband. Their home was not one of the beautiful houses in Dufil, but inspite of its poor appearance, it was always neat and tidy. As a result, their neighbours and children from the surrounding homes found it difficult not to come there in the evening and relax their tired minds and bodies after the day's work. Daniel therefore ensured that the thatch roof of his house did not leak and that the fence of bamboo sticks that enclosed his home was always intact.
