Onome my daughter. She said. When you get to Asaba, many men will try to get you. Resist them till you get a husband. And you must take note of the following requirements I now set for you. 1. You must find a man who is faithful. 2. He must not be a spendthrift. 3. He must be a virgin! With this advice, ‘Onome', stormed the city.
Some months later, she returned to Warri to get Mummy’s blessings to marry.
Mummy, I have met the right man following your instructions. He is so faithful!!! We went out for holiday one day, he took care of me specially even though there were so many prettier girls around. Isn’t that being faithful? She asked expectantly.
Mummy nodded in agreement. How about the other criteria I gave you? She asked. Onome replied, He passed mummy, he passed. He took me out and decided that we stay in the same hotel. In order not to spend too much, we shared one room. You see! He is not a spendthrift! One room???? Mummy gasped. Don’t worry Mummy, he is a virgin. Onome said.
How did you know? Mummy asked. Hmmmmmmmm. Onome said. His thing is brand new. It was wrapped up in a plastic paper, which of course I removed.
