Letters between Mo and Lo Part 4....

Hie Lo,

I was literally laughing out loud when I read ( follow the link if you missed part 3) about how people tend to forget what you are selling and then I also thought what a minute this is Lo, she probably strings the poor men along, I’ve got your number girl, I know how like to use innuendo when it suits you, don’t deny it.

Eish Pee is hectic isn’t she? It’s always one scandal after another. Remember when we were in high school and she was dating the tall maths teacher. Drama follows her like…. (I can’t find a simile but yes drama follows her)

I had lunch with Tony’s family the other day, I felt so uncomfortable not because anyone did anything but because everyone was trying too hard to make me feel comfortable. Arrgggh. Silly I know but it’s true. Next time they invite me over, I am not going alone.

 So I have decided to take your advice, first I will take it to the hills, then I will have a serious chat with him. We will see how that goes. But the end of June I have to know what’s what. Although I have a strong feeling that I am getting roorwad in October and wedding in April….

I had a fight with Auntie Rue, you know my cousin Mu, he is in love and very happy BUT Auntie doesn’t approve of his girlfriend. She is insisting that they break up. I have been trying to explain to her that the most she can do is share her reservations with him, but she cannot make the decision for him because at the end of the day he has to live with his chosen spouse. It’s not her decision to make. And what makes the situation worse is that there are no solid bases to her disapproval. She just doesn’t think she is “straight straight” that’s how she puts it and  she thinks she likes things and is only after Mu’s money. I looked at her like Auntie are you serious????? Sure she dresses really well, mani, pedi topped off with a Brazilian weave but that doesn’t make her a gold digger. If she turns out to be gold digger, Auntie can always say “Mu, I told you so” but she can’t stop him from being with the woman he loves. When I spoke to her, I was trying to explain that the more she fights it, the stronger their love will get. Mu has been shopping for an engagement ring, I didn’t tell her that part though.

Speaking of Auntie, I was thinking the other day about how parents probably start imagining our lives from the time we are in the womb. Thinking about what we will become and how we will behave and how will be better versions of them. But what do we do instead; we turn out to be total opposites of what they imagined. I can only imagine the disappointments they experience – when the doctor you envisioned decides to be a rock star or even when we leave the churches they raised us in or even.

Ohh well how are things with Fa?? You have been very quiet about him….???

Bye lovie,

Take care

Lots of love Mo

p.s I am having a cup of Milo and a slice of carrot cake for supper. The little joys of living away from Mumsy, she would never have this!!!!!! J
