The Undying

Today is my birthday and I am afraid. I have just been born the second time but as an adult. My full sense and memory intact. Sweat is all over me, this cannot be true. Its not a dream and I know it. The queue is long but with the speed of lightning its getting to my turn.

My eyes blinked and fluttered. This can't be! Eyes don't flutter in dreams. I tried to remember, how did I get here? Something assured me, no turning back, its too late! I am alone. Oh God!

The thought hit me. Did I just say oh God? He is supposed not to exist..a mere creation of insecure human mind. I suddenly wished I had remained a fool. A beautiful girl of 22 behind me was crying, weeping, uncontrollable mucous running down her nose.

As I looked at her, I suddenly knew everything about her. A daughter of a big pastor in Lagos. She declared her independence from everything called church, Christ at 15. She chose to be free, to enjoy herself and she did. A video picture of her flashed and I could see her smiling and giggling at a club house at Ikeja.

I wanted to take my sight of the playback, but looking at her miserable beautiful face contorted in anguish, the pictures continued. In less than a second, I watch her life from when her mum gave birth to her. I could see the doctors, one white grey haired doctor led the other doctors. Through a cesarean op, she came out! Long haired beautiful baby girl.

I do not intend to bore you with her story, for this is not about her but about me.

Hey bro, been a while. Is Today your birthday? Stay bless.
