MANAGERS

Here is the thing. There are diseases that we always ignore. Not malaria. Of course, I know you will say nobody does that but my aunt is gifted in this field. If her temperatures don’t reach 40, she will not go. So not malaria. Not flu either. What can I say? Well, I have promised a lot of people to call them back but I never did. I have also tried to arrange meetings with people but I didn’t turn up: or, sometime, I’ll be like, “oh, sorry….you know, I was caught up in a traffic whilst riding on a bodaboda when I was about to reach you. But Hey, I’m so sorry, I will be late if I make it there. Can we make it some other time? Friday, maybe? Is that fine? Thank you..blah..blah….blah.”Traffic? In South Sudan? Not just any other place but Juba? What a joke! It’s a lie. The truth is, I’m not me anymore. I think I’m just one inche away from losing my fresh memories. Not like back primary, science class, where I would remember everything in the human reproductive system. I could name all the provinces in the map and African countries and then capital cities. But now, wapi? I have lost businesses that would have made me financially a grown up. I have lost trust. I turns up during odd hours. I delays for business dates. Name them.Because of this and many other problems that I can’t say here, I finally got the courage to download this reminder app. I hope it won’t make me forget anything. As long as I insert everything in it accordingly. I will be good to go. How do I use It has always been a problem. I finally know how to put everything in it though I’m too old for this. So for example, if Akur Majok Kuol Mading is booking me to create a content about Juba Fashion Week event. This is how it will go.”Hello.” Of course, the handwriting might be mine but the voice is definitely hers. “Hello, is this Akur Majok.” Of course, I have her number and my voice has to be deeper to show the degree of seriousness. Why I’m asking whether is this her or not is to let you know where I grew up. “Long time?” “Indeed, long time. What’s booming?” By the way, we will leave this world one day but some things will never be wash away by the tears of those people who will be mourn our demise. “Cool. By the way, I have an event coming up soon. I want you to create a content for me. Are you up for it?” Dude, what do you expect from a financial homosexual like me? “When??” “Soon, Soon. Check the poster I send you two days ago and the get back to me.”….tuut! Tuut! “Hello? Do you need my stamp and a receipt? Hello? Hello?” And she hangs up. Now this is the perfect time to use this app. This is going to serve as an apology, somehow to the people that I have been disappointing in our leagal dealings.By the way, I have finally decided to bring it to your attention that I having a dispute with my house. But since that I’m past adolescent behaviours, I want to act responsible and call for a meeting which you should all be included to participate to solve the matter. I know neither of us can live without the other. My house hides my socks in the morning when I wake up and brings them back when I return. Since I’m the buyer and ‘she’s’ the keeper, I want her to explain where I have gone wrong.
