Finding Mrs Right by romanticnovels: 9:19pm On Jun 15, 2017
Lawrence watched from the corner, how his friends were balling at the beach, snapping away and enjoying the moments. As the breeze of the beach hit him, he couldn't help but shiver and let out a loud groan.

Seriously, he wasn't just getting the point. He was meant to be on a honeymoon, not a boring beach full with teens and young adults! If not that his mom had insisted he followed the boys out for a hangout, he would not even step out of his room.

"C'mon man, Don't tell me you are still sulking on what happened" Jeff, his roommate in 600L said as he furrowed his brows in discontent.

Jeff and Lawrence schooled at the University of Ibadan. They both studied Medicine and Surgery, class of 2014 and luckily for them, they got jobs after their service in UCH. Even though they were still under consultants and senior doctors, the pay was pretty cool.

And why wouldn't he sulk? When his fiance failed to say 'I do' right in front of the altar.

"No, Lawrence! I can't do this" She had said and ran away two saturdays ago and that had been the end of his world. Was he really not hot enough? Or was there something twitching his chances at finding his perfect Mrs Right?

Lawrence took a deep breathe and stood up. Walking to the guys who were now finding comfort on beach chairs with their towels hanging around their necks, he put his hands into his pocket and removed his sunshade.
"I am leaving"

"Mommy please I am going to I.B tomorrow" Lawrence announced once Gloria the houshelp opened the door. The latter greeted him and returned to the kitchen to complete the dish washing.
Mrs. Remi Bibitayo Stephen, a business woman successfully dealing in all sales of laces, ankaras and materials removed her oval shaped glasses and placed it on the table.

"Lawrence what is your problem? Why are you still brooding.
" This is the same reason I asked you to come with your friends from Ibadan to stay with me here in Lagos for a while because of what happened and I just got off the phone with that omo ibo. Ehn... Jeff or what is his name. He said throughout the outing, you were thinking. Lawrence move on! Move on and find another decent Yoruba girl to marry." "But Mom..."

"Preferably from Ondo state" She interrupted, crossed her legs and fixed on her glasses again.
"Woman, the last girl I brought before Lara was well brought up. Fine, she was Hausa but she completed me mom. She was perfect for me but what did you do? You disapproved of her right in her presence when you asked for her name and she told you.

Just because she wasn't Yoruba. And what next? You introduced me to that skinny girl, Lara who walked out on me right in front of the altar to the one she loved. Mom, I am sick and tired of all these bullshit. Just leave me the hell alone!" He barked and stormed out of the living room.

Mrs. Remi opened her mouth wide and clapped her hands. An act very common with typical Yoruba women.

"Lawrence, you will marry o. That you will not marry, that is a lie. Ahah. What is it?" She rose up and tied her wrapper well before slipping on her slippers and walking to the room. She turned the knob but it didn't budge.

She banged on the door till she was tired. Feeling frustrated, she started walking to and fro before returning to his door again.

"See. I want to sell my own Aso-Ebi o. I pick different colours and sell materials for other people's wedding. Why is it that you don't want people to buy mine. Lawrence I know you are hearing me. You are thirty-two years old now and my patience is running out"

it's kind of sad when you attend marriages of your son agemates and your own is busy flirting.

ha!
typical nigerian mum, it's everywhere, the igbo believe the yorubas do not know how to cook while the yoruba's believe that igbos lack respect and as such they don't want to associate with one another.
