If you live in Yaba and especially those new houses these developers build without parking space. You can relate. So, I have this neighbor, usually I try to park last cos, I’m usually the first to leave in the morning. Sadly, parking space isn’t enough

So I would have to be at alert and inform the gateman to call me once the last person parks so I can park inside. Because the street isn’t safe like that. Them don mob cars for there tire. Better security now tho. Back to the story. So, one time I didn’t park last

And I had to leave early in the morning to beat traffic. I knock this man’s door at 6am, knocked for almost 20mins, he bluntly refused to move his car. I was frustrated and had to call friends around. Luckily one was passing by and picked me. I was very furious that day

PS: I’m probably the most quiet neighbor, most tenants don’t even know my name.

So they all got used to the fact I come late. One day, I begged my boss to allow me close early, cos they just robbed someone’s car the night before. I get home early. This same man parks and covers space meant for 2 people. I politely ask him to move his car.

Baba told me, one other neighbor was there. I laughed really hard. I’m like where is she. Gateman was confused. So she just left saying she was coming back now now. So he decided to keep her space. It was too funny for me. Anyways it led to an argument once again

I wasn’t even dressed, but I moved my car. He was just saying thank you, thank you. I didn’t know why. Infact, when I stepped out topless, one of my neighbor screamed from her apartment that hope I was safe and why are 2 guys behind me. Told her it was the gateman

Next morning, I was about to step out, my neighbor saw me and was saying God bless me and I have a good heart. So his wife was pregnant and in labor that night. Was even bleeding. Fam, I was super glad I listened to the spirit that told me to move my car.

He mentioned that he didn’t expect me to move my car. And if it was some other neighbors they won’t move their cars or even answer him. Did I mention, I have another neighbor that has blocked me too and didn’t move his car.

Anyways, this long thread was just to buttress, the importance of forgiveness and having a good heart. I’m not perfect, but I’m grateful I moved my car. Imagine if anything happened to the woman and the babyhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😩" title="Weary face" aria-label="Emoji: Weary face"> I doubt I would forgive myself.
