The Braying-man things!

This is a lot different from anything I’ve posted since I started this blog. It’s not basically about what you imagine it to be by the words….don’t get too excited!

I stumbled on a very catchy conversation a few days ago, not at work this time around…at a beauty shop close to my house. I’m a lady, but in all my twenty-something years of ladyship, I have never heard as much “private” details as I heard; I’ll leave out the “private part”…LOL. So…this lady with green veins which she got from a few cheap bleaching creams; came into the shop with a scary frown on her face. Being that she’s a customer, the shop owner (Happiness) asks if everything was alright. She hisses and says “men are just a joke”! So I thought to myself “here we go”…I’ll be paying for my hair and the side attraction…gossip.

This lady starts by narrating how she and this guy who I thought had to be her husband till much later….anyway, the guy took her out for a “nice time”, they had lunch, took pictures, went to a bar, visited friends and went to chill somewhere private. They wanted to try something new and be away from any distractions according to her. They got to their hotel room, got refreshed and snuggled up on themselves under the sheets…don’t start getting any ideas. They “prayed” for a long time, it was the deepest and most felt “prayer session” she’s ever been in (leaving details out). In the end of it all…she kind of passed out, she was totally exhausted; she explained how for a moment she had to demand that the lights be turned on because she wasn’t sure if he was man or donkey….these were her words…”I had to struggle for the light switch and turn it on because I had to be sure he was man and not a donkey o!” she wasn’t referring to what you’re thinking about….she meant like an actual donkey…he was sounding like one.

I couldn’t hold in my laughter….I seriously was thinking she had a “full plate” of “dinner”… talk about biting more than she could chew. She sounded like she was scared as hell when she heard him practically braying. Yup! He got to “the” point of “can’t take it no more” and had to let it out…with a bray! I know people find themselves in awkward situations, but in this kinda situation??? Hmmm…a correct African man from this side of the Continent would say “omo, na where bele face o”!
