This happened to me two days ago on my way to Iyana Ipaja. I was in a bus yesterday when I espied a "Galla" seller in the distance, manoeuvring his way through traffic. A driver in a blue Camry had motioned him.

Instead of waiting for the hawker to reach him, the cab driver increased his speed- fast enough to make the hawker start running to reach him. The "Gala boy" kept on chasing him, hoping somehow, he would reach him and make a sale.

A trailer ahead caused the driver to slow down. Just then, the hawker reached him and lowered his carton of gala in front of him.

Instead of picking one and paying immediately, the driver decided to pick one then dropping it immediately to pick up another. He continued this way, picking one up, squeezing it, and dropping it again.

Finally, he picked one up, examined it for a while—and just when I thought he would pay—he dropped it and zoom of. The hawker couldn't believe what had just happened.

He stood there like a statue, carton of gala in hand. I could tell from a distance that he wasn't happy.

The blare of a bus coming behind startled him back to consciousness. I alighted from the bus, crossed to the other side of the road, and headed towards his direction.

I slowed down my pace when I spotted him from afar heading towards me. He was about to walk past me when I stopped him.

"Guy how far, Give me four Gala there," I said.

"Which type bros, " he replied excitedly, setting his carton of Gala on his thigh"

"Normal Gala guy," I replied, handing him a neat N200 naira note.

" Thanks," he said, his frown transformed into a smile as he raised the carton and balanced it on his strong shoulders.

"No probs guys." I said.

After a few steps, I turned around and saw him selling to another customer. I smiled, crossed to the other side and boarded another bus.

Life is not that HARD, yet we make it HARD via our actions. Do something that will make someone smile today.

Look for someone around you who is feeling down, and say something to life them up.

Look for that person in your life that you have been having issues with. Forgive them or apologise--then MOVE ON.

Life is too short to be keeping malice.Make someone happy today.Sorry no pictures or video.

I am a very rigid man. Two things get to me and makes me shed tears sometimes (worship and kind gestures). I didn't know when a ball of tear rolled down my cheeck because of this your story. The world is hurten and bruise. The desolate places of the world are full of habitation of wickedness. The world needs love. Thank you.

lmao...how can I plagiarize something I wrote myself?

I have lots of stories like this. I write my experiences daily.

This happened to me on the 27 of April this year. I posted this story first on NL on the 30th of April.

This was the first thread....
