A conversation with my sewing machine
SM: If it’s you nko?
Will you allow someone to continue to use you without showing any care for you at least once in 2 weeks, I know I can’t speak but trust me, I have my ways.
Tailor: I can see that, you simply just stopped working despite knowing I had an emergency order I needed to deliver, right in the process of that order, you, you decided to fail me, call me bastard if I don’t replace you with a bigger better more sophisticated machine.
SM: I’d be glad you did, at least it will add a little bit of class to you.
Tailor: No you didn’t
SM: Yes I did. And I hope you actually take care of her when you eventually do get her because trust me, she has more attitude than I and she takes a lot more effort to persuade her to start working fine.
Tailor: Tell me more
SM: No
Tailor: Whatever, it’s being a good ride but I’m dumping you soon.
SM: Ha ha ha, says the person who’s only ride is okada, you can’t ride something or someone.
Lonely…..
Tailor: 😩 😩😩
SM: It always ends in tears, I don’t know why you keep doing this. I’m sorry
Tailor: Nods in acceptance
SM: Let me give you a clue
Tailor: Ok
SM: Put the screwdriver inside the right hand side of the machine and tighten the screw
Tailor: She follows the instructions
SM: Good, now ride me again
Tailor: Don’t say that please
SM: Ok try to see if it will work
Tailor: It’s working
Thank you 😊 even if I get a new machine, you’re irreplaceable and you’ll always be my first love.
You can’t even smile and say thank you
SM: How now?
You know you’re just making this up right, I really didn’t say any of these things, I’m just a sewing machine
Tailor: Well, you’re my favorite sewing machine and I love you.
SM: Ok this is getting creepy. Get to work.
