Toasting A Lady In My 100level.

It was in 100level we met in the science lecture theatre. Being a guy that loves knowing and seeing new friends I got attached to her.

She was bearing my surname as well, so I guess fate brought us together. " Agada " my surname was also her surname.

It was on a Friday we met, yes after the Gst111 class was over. It was the last lecture for the week so I just waited for a little before going to the class to read through my Mth111.

" Is that Phy 111 you have there? " I asked.

" Yes, it is. " She replied.

" But the cover is different. Mine is not the same as yours. " I showed her my textbook.

" Ohh yes that's true! Am from Agric Economics Department, so our textbook is different from that of College of Science, so as College of  Engineering. " She replied with a smile.

" Do you mind if I check through your textbook? " I asked.

" Sure you can. Why not join me here. " She said.

" Ok then! " I withdrew to her row, as we sat next to each other.

" So what's your name? " I asked.

" Am Agnes Agada and you? " She replied.

" Am Zion Peter, but you can also call me Peter Agada. " I replied.

" Agada!!! " She screamed.

I guess she did not believe me either.

That was how we talked for almost an hour, while I checked through the textbook to see if there was anything in her book that could be of help to me. I also discovered from her that we shared the same local government area.

" Sorry would you mind giving me your number? " I pleaded.

" Sure, dear. 080******67. " She called it for me.

" Ok, dear! I would call you later, let me go cover some topics in Mth111 in the library. " I told her.

" Haaa see me I forgot to ask of your department. " She sighed.

" It's normal! I am from the Department of Mathematics. " I replied.

" You don't mean it! Thank God I have seen someone that would be teaching me mathematics. " She smiled.

" Hmmm, maybe you would be the one to teach me sef. " I laughed.

" Don't joke with me. I would call you when I come to class later. " She replied.

That was how I got a new friend combined with my three male friends, so I have 4 friends now. A girl and three boys.
____



We started reading together. Most times she comes to class earlier than I do, so she kept her bag on a seat next to her so that we read together.

Am usually the long reading type: I read from 8 pm to 5 am most often. So I taught her to read all through the night, and she pretty became a genius in reading more than I did.

She was never satisfied. She read as if exams were holding the next day, from her i learnt " Perseverance " from this damsel. She is beautiful and cool.
____

One piece of advice my parent gave to me before stepping foot on campus, was never to allow distraction come near my studies and my dreams. 

Agnes was not a distraction to me from the beginning, so I saw her just as a friend. I was not only reading with her, I have some course mate that we read in the same class with, but not the same seat as I and Agnes did.

The ministry was moving to the permanent site.
____

Suddenly I became attracted to Agnes in another way, I wasn't seeing her just like a friend again, neither was she an enemy.

I started caring more than I did just to a friend, it wasn't a big distraction but I noticed jealousy and bitterness anytime I see her with another guy.

Knowing she was single, and seeing the green light she showed I was also aware she liked me too. But!

" Remember not all green light means go. Some traffic lights malfunction most often causing accidents. "

We still read as normal, relate as normal even when love steeped in.

You are human! So having feelings is not bad, but hope it won't distract you?
____

So I asked most of my friends in parables which would be the best. I did not refer to the issue as being mine but just asking. 

" It's good for the person to say it! Then allow it disturbing," they said.

But I told my very tight friend in school then. We knew before getting admission, he is studying Mechanical Engineering.

" Verem How you see this stuff! Should I go? " I asked john mark. ( Verem is his tribal name. )

" Me I don't like that Agnes of a girl. She has an ego and I feel she is just using you as an escort and so on," he replied.

" Johnny I said I like this girl, which one is ego? " I asked.

" Hmmm, Peroo don't come complaining later. I am not in support of that girl. Even if you must date. Not Agnes! " he replied.

" Ok. I have heard you. " I changed the topic.

While all these inquiries were going on, my love was growing.

Celebrate grace!
____

So I prepared one day to ask her out.

We normally walk a little when sleep starts in. We just walk around the classroom block so to chase sleep away. 

So that faithful day she said she wanted to sit outside for some time, so I said I would sit with her.

" God is behind me! Agnes hardly stays outside for long. " I celebrated in my heart.

After we sat down, I tried to tell her but I couldn't because my heart was beating so fast.

How will I start? What would be her response? Are you sure she likes you? All this ran through my mind.

So I halted the process and told her I would be going back to read.

" Just now we sat here! And you want to leave? Please stay before boys would come and start disturbing me. " She pleaded.

" So you mean??..? " I asked.
____

Anytime she sees me talking to a girl she would just cough and greet me. I would go and start explaining myself better.

" She is just a friend. We met?? Do you know that my guy? Yes, she is his sister. " I narrated.

" I know! " she answered with her suspicious looks.
____

So one faithful Thursday eve I called her so we could walk around the school because we barely do.

So we saw, walked a little, and sat somewhere. It wasn't dark then.

" But Peter you haven't ever asked who my boyfriend is! " she asked me.

My heart started beating very fast for no just cause.

" I did not see it important, by the way, you told me you were single all this while. " I replied.

" Not single again! I gave him a yes yesterday, I now have a boyfriend," she replied.

" I...don..t g..e..t! " I stuttered.

" I mean am not single again! " she replied with a smile.

" Hope all is well? " she asked.

" Yes all is well " I pretended and smiled at her.
____

I did not cry! I did not frown?. I was depressed.

My motivation became my distraction? I don't know how I got over it.

But sincerely it wasn't easy. 😭😭😭😭😭

And now I have always killed any feeling of love. If you see me, you see me as a freeman.

Not scared of love. But not ready for that ugly incident again?

To my young generation never be distracted, pursue your dreams.
Don't let love lead to suicide. 
Don't let love lead to sin.
Don't let love lead to you losing your mind.

Based on a true-life story.

THE FOUR CARDINAL POINTS OF A WOMAN

Yes, they say the pride of a woman is her hair, but when a woman passes by, the first thing I see is her face, and if time permits, I check her shape and appreciate God for creating an elegant damsel.
That said, the woman has four major cardinal points which we can use to assess her. Yes, four major cardinal point!
Women are beings that have quick access to a man's heart, either by visual or intimate relationship.
Some men are attracted to the butt of a lady, some to her beautiful smile, some to her dimple, and so on?..
Regardless, here are the  four cardinal points of a woman:
1. Character
2. Background
3. I.Q. (Intelligence Quoient)
4. Love
CHARACTER: Character is the behavioural system of a living being. We can also define it as the way an individual behaves.
Character has many attributes attached to it. In character, one can find attitude, humility, neatness, humor, e.t.c. Many times, the character of a lady would determine who follows, stays, and walks out on her.
Funny enough, I have heard of  girls who were on the verge of a breakthrough and a little display of bad character to a friend, colleague, or fiance, cut the opportunity short. Yes, to the lady in concern, it shouldn't make them mad or leave but, as we all know, everyone lives based on his/her principles; so what we like, we stick to, and what we dislike, we avoid.
As a girl, this is the first point you should work on. 
I call this the North-axis.
BACKGROUND: The word background is defined as where one was brought up alongside their experiences or circumstances. In other words, background can also be seen as the breeding place of an individual (origin/home).
You'll agree with me that the upbringing of a lady is also as important as her character. Many have gone astray because their parents were actually nonchalant about their upbringing, while some are the major cause to having a bad background.
Background also has the same attributes as character. Some of the attributes of background include: association, communication, parent culture, etc.
Many ladies have terrible backgrounds, and their lives have been affected negatively as a result.
I heard a story of a lady whose mum advised her to go into prostitution to help their family with their daily bread. Sadly, the lady went with her mum's plan, and eventually, she contracted HIV and died years later. This narrative give us an example of parent culture. 
Background has a way of shaping your life positively or terminating it quick. How you associate, communicate, and accept beliefs should also be something to work on for any lady who desires greatness.
I call behavior the South-axis.
INTELLIGENCE QUOITENT (IQ): Intelligence Quotient is defined as the ability to perceive or understand. It also the effectiveness and speed of one's mental capacity.
The thinking capacity of a lady is also very important in the today's world. 
Intelligence Quotient has the following attributes, such as smart, confidence, passionate, and temperament.
A lady that is smart and confident attracts respect and attention.
A girl who acts without thinking is a failure because she will be used and dumped like trash.
Haven't you heard of  girls that got pregnant for a guy, believing he would marry them and later got disappointed? But, come to think of it, you are not yet married, yet you went to sleep with a guy without protection; were you thinking at all?
A girl that thinks rationally will be able to discern when she is being played, fooled, and cheated. So, as a girl, you also need to work on your thinking through books and seminars to improve yourself in today's world.
I refer to Intelligence quotient as the West-axis.
LOVE: Love is defined as the total acceptance of a personality into one's heart. Love can also be a strong feeling of attraction towards a thing.
This is where most girls go gaga (crazy). Love is a very strong word and expression. It carries many attributes, such as trust, submission, care, attention, risk, encouragement, supportive spirit, ambition, etc. Indeed, love is something everyone must fall into. After all, you can't keep hating everyone; no matter how cautious you are, love catches off guard sometimes.
You hear words like "I fell in love"  or "we are in love." Awnnn, romantic right?
But many are in love with the wrong person or thing. You love someone, but the only thing he wants from you is what lies between your thighs; is that love? 
"But if I don't give it to him he will cheat on me."
Sometimes, we mistake like for love, lust for love, and transactional sex for love. As a result, many girls have gone astray in the name of love. 

Permit me to share a friend's story. 😭😭😭 

All of a sudden, she started seeing a guy and came home late often. It became a tradition, and her dad found out. In his anger, he threatened to disown her if she continues the relationship and lifestyle. Yet, it went on and on, till one faithful day she got into a quarrel with her dad, and she left to stay with her boyfriend.
At this point, her dad left her to do her will; she was 22, so she should know her left from her right. 
"Since it's a man that's your problem, stay with the man," her dad said.
She stayed with the boy for over two months, and i guess for the young man, he felt had gotten a free wife. Unfortunately, one faithful Sunday, I came back from church and heard people crying at her father's house. I asked and discovered my friend was dead. What happened? How? 😭😭😭
She was sick, and the so-called boyfriend who promised to stand by her didn't care because he didn't have the money. How on earth could you allow a girl that is not your wife or sister to stay in your house without the knowledge or permission of her family?
She died in her boyfriend's house, and although it was reported that she was sick, some said it could be that she wanted to do an abortion. I didn't pay attention to those rumors, though.
The boyfriend is still serving jail time and would soon be out but, for her, it was her last on this side of the divide.
Mind who you love and trust.
I call love the East-Axis
In truth, all these 4 cardinal points revolve around CHARACTER, but they all can't work without each other.
