PART 27
So sorry for the mistake ๐
That was how I started plaiting hair for
people in the village, making little money
out of it, I would go to the villagers to
advertise that Iโm a hairdresser, I was
doing more of home service then, I would
go one house to another to ask them if they would like to plait their hair, I was
getting customers, parents will bring their
children to come plait their hair, I was
getting popular in the village because I was
the only hairdresser at that time, people
will come from other villages to plait hair. Money was coming in one way or the other,
I donโt have a shop or a saloon, I was doing
it in front of our house, I pasted a
hairstylesโ wallpaper on the wall for people
to select the style they want. Registration
had begun in school but my school fees wasnโt completed, Iโve saved money from
my hairdressing business but it wasnโt
sufficient to pay my school fees, I was
attending lectures tho but not done
registration yet. Two days to last day of
registration, my money was completed, not really completed tho, Martins helped
with some money to make it completed.
That was how I paid my school fees,
attending lectures, no money for
textbooks, but was photocopying
textbooks of my classmates, turning it to handout,I wasnโt dressing very well to
school, my dressing was so shabby, I doing
repetition of clothes, so I never really had
friends cos I wasnโt looking so tush, who
want to make friends with a village rag
dressing girl like me. I continued my hair business in the village cos I was going to
school from home, our village is not far
from the campus. I was making money
from it, feeding my son and helping my
grandmother out of it, I needed a shop but I
donโt have enough money to get a shop, you know God does his things miraculously, I got
a shop, a free shop, it was one of my
customer that gave me a shop for free, she
gave me the shop out likeness cos the
woman likes me and my son, she liked me
because I was hรฆrdworking. God bless that woman, she gave a shop in the market
place, the shop is an old dirty shop,
abandoned shop, I just had to manage it,
before you know it, it was growing, my
shop was getting developed.
Parents were bringing their daughters to
come learn how to make hair in my shop, I
started having apprentices in my shop. I
humbly advertised to students and
classmates to come make their hair in my
shop. Students were coming to my shop to plait their hair cos so many students were
living in our village, people were queuing to
make their hair in my shop. I was growing, I
got hair dryer and so many instruments in
my shop, my salonโs name was โCha Cha
Hair Saloonโ Cha Cha is a name given to me by Martins, acronym of Charity. Thank God
my mother sent me to learn this job in my
auntโs place back then, my aunt was a very
versatile hairstylist so I learnt a lot when I
was with her, sigh! The way God does his
thing.
I enrolled my son to a nursery school, taking
care of my grandmother too, my parents
didnโt even know what was going on cos
they didnโt bother to check on us, theyโve
abandoned us totally. I didnโt even care
about them anymore cos I was enjoying my life as a village girl. While in my 3rd year, I
opened another shop in another location
and I also moved to a bigger shop. I didnโt
have any friend during this period, I wasnโt
interested in friendshยกp thing cos I was
focused as a single mother. I began dating Martins after so much begging, he was
serving in another state when I accepted to
date him, Martins deserved it cos heโs done
a lot, we didnโt have sโฌร cos I donโt have
the time and he was also far away. I was
happy with Martins but his mother was frustrating my lifeโฆ.
