Àjàńtálá: The Demon Child by adex3g(m): 8:53am On Jun 28, 2021 |
Once upon a time a
woman had a baby boy,
and it was a very lovely
child. But no sooner had
the child been born that
he began to speak and to
complain.
‘Woe is me; so this is
what life is all about. Why
was I brought into this
world; I never knew that
it would be so difficult
here. All I can see
everywhere is filth and I
certainly will not stay long
here’
And even as he finished
saying this, he rose from
his crib, went into the
bathroom and washed
himself thoroughly with
soap and water. Then he
covered himself with a
soft warm blanket and
sat on a chair. Not long
after, he went into the
kitchen, and ate six large
loaves of bread, and he
would have eaten more,
only there was no more
bread. And he came out
crying from the kitchen
because there was no
more bread.
All these were unusual
things for a baby to do,
and soon people came
from all over to see the
miracle child, and he was
very angry with them all.
On the seventh day when
he was to be given a
name, his parents
prepared a feast for
guests and very many
were invited for the
naming ceremony.
‘My name is Ajantala,’ he
said to all of them, when
it was time to give him a
name.
Now when the food for
the feast was being
cooked in the kitchen
Ajantala had ceaselessly
complained. He
complained about the
food, he complained
about the cooks, he
complained about how
slow they all were. After a
while he found a ladle
and began to stir the
stew in the fire, to the
utter surprise and
annoyance of the cooks.
‘What a horrible child’
they all complained. And
when he heard this he
found a whip and beat
them all so severely that
they fled the kitchen and
the house. And even
when the feast had
begun, his anger had not
abated. He he again
found the whip and beat
the guests so much that
they fled in all directions,
and he ran after them
and whipped them all
along the way. It was a
day of much confusion. source https://wap.org.ng/read/ÀjÀŃtÁlÁ-the-demon-child/ |
