My love Karma

I stared at my phone for the umpteenth time, waiting patiently for the slightest sign of vibration but neither heard nor felt anything.
   What is wrong with men in this country! I exclaimed, just the other night pretty boy and I had a very wonderful conversation.  I saw a side to him,  I didn't even know existed. I had worn a grin that reached my ears, with every message I read that came from him. Even my heart started to beat really fast, creating a rhythm of its own. Pretty boy had even talked about a kiss, which sounded very much like an invitation to me.
    Again, what is wrong with men in this country! After enjoying a few minutes of what I thought was electronic love, the melodius conversation ended, and companionship that I once felt tasted like fresh palm wine, became as sour as the abacha my friend had complained of the other night...
     Of course I knew he had a girlfriend, but that had never stopped me before, Never! Was pretty boy just leading me on?
    I felt sorry for myself, but even more sorry for my poor electronic gadget, which now lay, lonely on the cold table like an old woman, waiting to be serviced. But then I realised that I wasn't so different from my gadget after all, we were both lonely.
      I couldn't believe that pretty boy could let go of me this way.  But not long after that, pity soon turned into anger.  He isn't that cute anyway, who the hell does he even think he is? It hurt even more because I had never been in the position of chasing a man, in my whole life.
       Now the snub picks my call when he deems fit, replies my messages when he is bored, and always waits for me to say hello...
     A call soon came from Femi, which I ignored with a hiss, alongside a call from lanre and Peter. And just then it hit me! This must be Karma! Now, I have been given a taste of my own medicine.
     Sadness soon enveloped me, as I realised that, life is hard, and we can't get what we want, maybe pretty boy isn't for me after all.  But just before I could wallow in self pity again, a call hit my phone, but this time, even my small gadget was excited as it spun 360 in vibration.
    Hello...  Tee, it's Mars,  pretty boy's familiar voice rang, bringing elevation to my soul.  "I just broke up with my girlfriend"... Oh, I'm  so sorry, I tried to pretend, " well", he continued...  "long story short, all the time lost, I wanna make it up to you"...
    Hmm...  We can have what we want in life after all...
