July 1st 2015 saw Flo washing Deborah's, Chika's and Chinonye's clothes and un'dies.

"Uche wetin you dey do so?" Nas was astonished on seeing un'dies lying amongst the clothes he washed

"Wetin e look like say i dey do?" Flo responded, "i dey watch ball, champions league!! You wan know the scores"

"Flo so e don reach you like this?" Nas cried out, "to dey wash p'ant for this small girls"

"Guy wetin i dey do no cencern you!" He hide the un'dies, "ehen you say e get wetin you wan tell me, wetin be that?

"Guy wetin i wan tell you be say this your uncle wife dey temptation me ooh" He sat at the pavement beside Flo.

"Temptation you how?" Flo stopped washing abruptly.

"She want make i lick her Mango or else i go leave this house"

"Lick her mango? So she buy mango give you, you no gree lick? Why? Shey na ripe mango?" Flo was surprised.

"Make i lick her mango, shey i be licky-licky?" Nas returned, "i no mean that kin mango ooh, i mean the other mango"

"Eeeeeehe! Nas!" Flo yelled out.

"No dey shout!" Nas responded, "i never lick the mango na"

Just then Ten years old Nicole the last child of the house walked in with her notebook and pen.

"And who is licking who's mango?" She said.

"Lick? Me? I no lick ooh! She just told me to lick and i no lick ooh!" Nas confessed unknowingly..

"Who?" Nicole asked.

"Your Mother na, she....................." Flo covered Nas's mouth.

"So you guys just go about licking mummy's mango abi, i will tell her!"

"No ooh! Us did not lick oh!"

"If you like let Horse lick or let Cow lick, thats not why i am here, i am here because of my assignment!"

Mare hearing the word assignment, Flo's mind skipped. He recalled Nicole telling him one afternoon to spell hypothesis, and he spelt Hypotessy. He recalled multiplying 47 by 12 and deriving 14. He recalled the past tense of feed as fish.

"Nas help her do her assignment!" Flo cried with a loud voice.

"Uche! Na you brilliant pass me ooh, help her do the assignment" Nas also cried.

"Nas i did not finish secondary school, i stopped at primary 4" Flo the graduate of Industrial Chemistry said.

"I want brother Nas to help me with this assignment because i don't want the past tense of feed to be fish" Nicole made her choice. A perfect choice to her.

"Okay go ahead read the assignment!" Nas was crying deep down.

"Big is to small as Elephant is to what?"

"Elephant is to.........." Nas was thinking.

"Elephant is to Ele" He answered, "the small children of Elephant is Ele"

"Okay" Nicole had written the answer down, "i have written that one down, this is another question, it is maths; if Ade is 14 years old and his father is 45 years old, how old was Ade when his father was 35 years?"

"Ade!...............father?.................. Ade.......... Father!......." Like the answer to the question was in the nomenclature.

After solving gibberish on the sheet of paper Nicole handed to him he said, "That means Ade is older than his father, Ade senior him papa with 14 years"

"Yes that is the correct answer" Beans and vegetable had turned Flo into a piece of vegetable education-wise.

Educated by the streets.

"Ola you dey lose this game ooh!" Ogbonta said the obvious

"I know! But na man i be!"

"Na man you be abi?" Dipo responded, "me na woman i be? I go win you scara!"

"Who is Olaniyi Olanipekun!" One of the jailers announced.

"Na man you be! Na man you be! Na man you be!!" Ola's prison mates hailed him like he was headed to be crowned Mr. Nigeria.

"Na me sir!" Ola responded, "na man i be!"

"Your sister wants to see you in the waiting room!"

"Me? Sister? I get sister?"
