Me, creating my own world.
At first when I told her I want to ground pepper, she replied 'okay', because that sound normal to her.
Even though I have a pepper 🌶️🍅 grounder at home. But the thought that, "if we all have the machine at home, who will patronize those markets women" came to my mind. I have to make someone feel special even that I have to pay for it. I would like to pay more if I have but it's good I did with the little that I have.
She collected my peppers, put it in a bowl, I joined her removing the stick. But this time, I was keeping the stick in my other hands. Lol.. She expected me to drop it on the floor but I stopped doing that a long time ago. 😂
It doesn't matter whether it is market place or not. No where have to be dirty. I asked her "ma'am, please where can I dropped this (the pepper stick) ?", she was confused, she don't want to tell me to drop it on the floor but before she could say something, I already took a nylon and put it inside. She smiled, I smiled.
I then asked again, "which of those water is for washing."
After series of moments in the market, the service is done. I asked "how much am I going to pay?", maybe my money is more than but she said, "pay 50 naira, thank you so much my son".
I gave it to her and say "thank you ma". She smiled again and I smiled too. I took my pepper and left.
