Can You Imagine?
Ghana is really changing indeed! I recently met this maiden. She is beautiful on the outside. I mean standard beauty. She is smart above average. She is charismatic. She is independent. Her attitude is tolerable. And her company is fun. She is a great decoration.
However, there is a problem. She insisted on introducing me to her business man father. I hesitated, as i usually do with these sorts of requests but she was adamant. Eventually, i obliged.
Now here is the bomb. The man introduced himself as a future father - inlaw. What?? Just now?? I think he got manipulated by my beard and quickly thought I would be a great husband! By the way, his house is an edifice.
The man spoke lavishly. In fact, he is a braggard! In less than 30 minutes he told me of all his gargantuan worth. I was amazed at the speed at which he was going..
He then proposed to me to marry his daughter or not waste her time. He was stern. May be he wanted to intimidate me. He added, that he knows i don't have money but a bright future.
Therefore, he will gimme aid to marry his daughter. The 'aid' will come in the form of a house, a highly priced car, and some cash. He wants a societal wedding!
Shocked by his proposal, i asked him why he will do such a thing - considering that his daughter is capable of winning the heart of any man without inducement? And then he said, ' i hear you are famous. You have prospects and political connections. My daughter will be secured with you'.
'well, this sounds like a bribe, in anticipation of future considerations', i said. 'yes, i don't have money. I don't have a house. And yes, i only own an old fashioned rickety car but this your proposal sir, has made me feel even cheaper'.
My 'father - inlaw' was not impressed with my response..so he asked me to go and think about it.
Let me confess; I don't love his daughter. Help me think about it!
