CHAPTER ONE
Shouts of joy erupted from the football viewing centre as the referee
blew the final whistle. Arsenal Fc had just won their first European
Champions League title, it had been a tough match. They played
against Barcelona, a spanish club who were known to have won the
title
several times. Barcelona played hard but were unable to get the ball
into the net, the match had proceeded to the extra thirty minutes. At the
dying minutes of the game, defender Puyol had mistakenly sent the ball
pass his team goalie through a disastrous header actually meant to
keep the ball out out of the box.
" Up Gunners!!!" Bode hailed as he walked out of the centre with his
Friend Frank.
" Na Luck una use win jor" Frank replied him in pidgin English.
"Luck or no luck, we are champions of the season"
"See you, come next season you guys would be trashed out like you
are always trashed"
"Hahahaha, haters keep hating, we are the champions"
Frank and Bode were flatmates, young men aging twenty four and
twenty six. Their other flat mate, Kelvin who wasn't a lover of football
was left at home by the duo. Kelvin was older than the both of them, he
was twenty eight. The three guys had met in the university and became
close friends, instead of renting several single rooms, they had decided
to stay together.
Bode and Frank walked into the house and met Kelvin fast asleep in the
living room, although both had their different rooms, they slept most
times together in one room chatting and sharing their day experiences.
" Kelvin, what did you prepare? We are so hungry" , Frank said waking
Kelvin from his sleep.
"You want to eat again? Aren't you filled with football already? " Kelvin
asked jokingly, "Go into the kitchen, you'll find beans. I'm going into my
room to sleep, I have to prepare for Church tomorrow " Kelvin said and
walked away from them.
Frank and Bode rushed into the kitchen like kids who were fighting to
get a toy. This was their usual manner, the first person to get to the Pot
usually got the larger larger of food.
