The Diary Game: Fixing Our Cable And Looking For Ways To Solve Fuel Issue [20/04/2026]
Unexpected Issue On Our Cable
Hello everyone, it's @demigodsms, I will love to share another episode about my daily activities, not quite long, our cable develop some issues, it stopped working, something told me it was network issue, all we could see on our TV scream was no service, connect to cable, this issue occurs most of the time, I and my three siblings was the only people in the house, my mom went to work, and our dad traveled outside town, coming back home next month, we were in haste to put the cable in order before our mom comes back, just to avoid her anger and too much talk, because our mom don't joke with our house properties, especially the electrical appliances.
Reaching Out To The Cable Repairer
I quickly borrowed some card credit and called our cable boy name brother Frank, I tried calling his number twice before reaching out to him, he said he's coming now, but you know Africans time, he took much time before coming.
Replacing Power Interruption With Our Big Generator
The painful part of it is that he came when power supply was interrupted. Luckly enough, we have two generators, one big one and a smaller one normally called I pass my neighbor. They was only few fuel on the big generator, the smaller one was empty, we immediately put it on, and brother Frank started working on the cable, with the ladder he climbed, while I and one of my two brother was assisting him as well.
Finally The Cable Starts Working
After some time, the cable starts working, the channels was restored, we only did some adjustments on the TV colors with remote control. We paid Brother Frank 2k (two thousand naira) for his workmanship, before going he told us that it was a minor network issue, and he told us to always call him anytime the issue occurs.
Overused Of Fuel Almost Causes Some Issues
After brother Frank Left, we allowed the generator to run for some time, because they was an interesting movie named killerbean, it's a very popular action cartoon movie which we so much love watching. But unfortunately, the fuel on the generator got finished, I thought it was a joke, we were confused, we don't know what to do to avoid our mom's trouble. Because we know our mom won't takes it likely with us if paraventures she finds out. We tried looking for who to borrow money from, but yet nobody was ready to help.
The Issue Of Fuel Was Solved
I later went to one of our neighbor who sell black market fuel at the end of our street, name efe, we are from the same village, she knows who my mom is, that she's the hatch type of person, efe quickly gave us two liters of fuel on credit and we promised to pay back. Thank God efe rescue us, otherwise the talks from my mom won't be easy on us.
