MY GIST
You will never believe what happened to me at The Palms. I went to Shoprite to pick up something to drink. As I walked down the isle, I noticed this lady staring at me. I looked at her and kept walking to the front counter to get some candy. I picked up the candy and turned to find something to drink. When I turned around, the same lady was standing right behind me in my face. So, I smiled and said, "HI!"
Then I went on to get a bottle of spring water. Can you believe that same lady followed me through the store?! I was getting a little nervous " I smiled again and said, "Hi. She finally responded and said, "I am so sorry for staring, but you look just like my youngest son who passed away just two weeks ago."
... She then asked me to get in line behind her and as she left the store say..... "Bye Momma" so that she could have some sense of closure!! I must admit that her request threw me for a second. However, thinking that this was my opportunity for intercessory, I agreed and got in line behind her. As she got her bag from the cashier and walked away, I said, "Bye Momma!!!"
She smiled with tears in her eyes and said, "Bye my son." When I reached the counter, the cashier rang up my gum and bottle of water and said, "That will be N6470.50." I said, "WHAT!?!" As if I couldn't hear, she repeated it, "N6470.50." I said, "Can you tell me how a pack of N30.00 gum and a bottle of N200.00 water equal N6470.50?!"
She said, "Your mother said that you were paying for her stuff too." I said, "MY MOTHER!?! THAT WAS NOT MY MOTHER!!!" I literally dropped everything and ran out of the store, just in time to see the lady going up an escalator to the upper parking. I ran after her and was yelling..
"Excuse me, Excuse me!!!" When she turned around and saw me, she started running to her car. I caught her before she was able to shut the door. But she tried to escape out of the passenger's side. So, I lunged at her only to grab her leg. By this time, security personnel were coming anyway. I started causing a real scene ... yanking and pulling on her leg!! I kept pulling her leg and pulling her leg... Just like I'm pulling yours now!!!!!!!!! !!!! Kai, you too like gist!!!!!!!! !!
