Adebimpe The Facebook Girl ( Season 5 ) … Part 8
On thursday morning, I left home for
work as usual. I got to my desk in the
morning and resumed work. My heart
was filled with worries, fear and anxiety
as I became uncomfortable on my seat.
For some moments, I would just stare
into the ceiling and soliloquies with
account packages on the table
unattended to, at a point, I was shedding
tears and I don’t know it, the fear of “is
this how I will loose betty?” filled my
heart and I couldn’t concentrate on
anything. My temperature was raised
immediately . At around 10am, I got an
envelope on the notification of my
system. It was a message on my
microsoft outlook, I opened it and
discovered that it was a message from
funmilayo which says “onihaxy, see me
in my office immediately”. I got scared
and I was so worried. From the history of
funmilayo that I was told about, I heard
that she is very dangerous and bossy, she
is rude, arrogant and deadly, she doesn’t
send for staffs anyhow and every of her
subordinates feared her as she can fire
anybody, I also heard that whenever she
sent such mail, its either she wanted to
fire someone or she wanted to serve
someone a query. Immediately, I pinged
my team-lead on bbm to tell him that
funmilayo sent for me, my teamlead
replied with a “surprise” smiley and he
told me to summon courage and answer
her.
I suspended what I was doing, stood up
from my seat and went to her door, I
knocked and she told me to come in and
I entered.
ME: good morning ma.
FUNMI: ***raised eyebrow*** ma?, minus
5k from your salary this month.
ME: **scared*** I’m sorry, good morning
funmi
FUNMI: better, how are you?
ME: **still scared and worried*** i am
fine
FUNMI: you can have your seat
ME: ***pulled the visitors chair and sat
down*** thank you
FUNMI: ***held her pen with one hand,
hitting it against the other hand with her
glasses adjusted and she was staring
straight into my eyes**** onihaxy!!!!!!!
ME: ****scared with my heart beating
heavily****** Ma!!!
FUNMI: ***pulled closer to her desk*** I
have been going round, observing all the
new project staffs and also going
through their targets. I found out you
have been doing well and also exceeding
targets, keep it up
ME: thank you
FUNMI: however, I have been observing
you through the glass since morning, I
noticed you are behaving unusually funny
today. What happened?
ME: nothing ma.
FUNMI: ***smiled*** your girl dumped
you?
ME: no
FUNMI: anyways, I know you are
suffering from an emotional trauma.
That is why I called you.
ME: **silent***
FuNMI: look here onihaxy, everyone has
one or two issues battling with them,
maybe your girl dumped you, your wife
gave birth or wh@ťěver it may be, the
moment you get to the bank entrance,
you just have to drop every emotions at
the gate, enter the compound and
concentrate at work and after work, you
can pick your problems from the gate
and return home with them.
ME: yes ma
FUNMI: here in this bank, it is either
100% or zero, we don’t tolerate errors,
there is no way you won’t make errors
when you combine your emotional
problem with the work on your desk, you
can never concentrate. I’m telling you
this because I can see you have been
working hard, if any error is detected in
your work, you are gone, is that clear?
ME: yes ma.
FUNMI: ok, you can go back to your
desk.
ME: ok ma.
I left funmi’s table and returned to my
desk. It was difficult for me to
concentrate on my work so I had to put
on my earphones and play music from
my phone. At break time. I stepped out
to meet my other team mates at their
office to catch fun with them in order to
overcome my worries. I was surprised
that the news had went round that funmi
sent me a mail to come to her office.
“What happened onihaxy?”
“Wetin you do funmi?”
“Na wetin she tell you?”
“She don sack you?”
People began to ask me several
questions and I told them that she sent
for me to come and eat lunch with her in
her office, I became a celebrity instantly
as it turned to a topic of discussion till
the end of the day.
I got home after work that night. I heard
my shower and had a chat with bimpe
and betty at the same time. I begged
betty to tell me about the suspense but
she still insisted that I have to wait till
she is back from abuja. I was also
chatting with bimpe till I excused myself
to eat dinner.
After the dinner, I was preparing for
friday’s work when my phone began to
ring. I checked the screen and it was
bimpe.
ME: hello bimpe,
BIMPE: hi onihaxy, how is work today?
ME: fine, and yours?
BIMPE: good
ME: ok
BIMPE: I will be off duty this weekend,
can you come around please?, I want to
show you something and also give you
plans on how to get your girl back to
you.
ME: ****silent***
BIMPE: onihaxy, you aren’t talking,
hello!!!!
ME: I’m just scared, are you sure you
aren’t setting me up or planning anything
funny?
BiMPE: anything funny like raping you
abi?
ME: ****laughed***
BIMPE: ***laughed tooo****
ME: ok, let me tell betty about it
BIMPE: haba onihaxy, why will you do
that now?, just let her travel while we
make our own plans. You will pay me for
my services oooo.
ME: ok, I hear.
BIMPE: alright, I will be expecting you in

ME: ok. ****chai onihaxy!!!!!!, can bimpe
