Elliot cast his mind back to his own attempt of procreation with Jasmine. Obviously his ignorant of her transgender status, Jasmine money is the only thing he wants. Ifey and Elliot scenario is similar to someone that will die, meet somebody that will bury him, ifey whose caliber of friend visit him when he was in the village have been put through to the logic of success in the city, if Elliot should open to him more about his secret he can easily teach him about the way to achieve it and in the end things can go good or bad for either of them. ‘if you do win some of this money how will you spend it’ Bassey says ‘spending the money will not be a problem multiplier factor that can sustain it is what am concern about ‘Elliot explain. ‘Brilliant I know how you can control that’ ifey state ‘you sound like you are up to something’ Elliot indicate. whatever ifey know about money and control will absolutely satisfy Elliot even at his young age, he really don’t know how Elliot can use it when he does have it but he will put him through, the sun was so blazing when he left the café he quickly take a shower lay on his bed and slept, when he woke up it was already mid-night; perfect time to read the code ifey create “the bad luck font create problem” what is the meaning of this’ the second inscription reads “your secondary school best font that make you repeat can make you win” ‘this inscription is difficult to break down’ Elliot admit he called some of his friends if they can make sense of the inscription nobody can break it, he drop the note for another day. As for jasmine she is having fun with her new life and her hairstylist knows this ‘I know it will really be expensive to transform yourself into a lady just in a few month, and how are you handling all these expenses’ the stylist inquire ‘oh friend don’t even bother to ask I have spent a lot that is why I don’t keep account’ Jasmine says money she spent must be huge considering the fact that in a developing country just one surgery can cost a lot. ‘so the surgery must really be painful’ the hairstylist state ‘oh I really don’t know, I just slept off open my leg the scientist put in whatever they want, they got some injection and some plastic that looks like vagina they put it on me like jarule and I slept off, geez ever since then I feel like doing it every minute’ Jasmine gesture ‘you have just created one strange history in Africa’ her hairstylist point out.

Strange history indeed it has not happen before in Africa yeah we have all heard of gay and incest relationship, but as for transgender is going to be a onetime thing because of the expensive nature, well good for jasmine she got money and lots of them too, Elliot don’t have to bother about the lottery money unless he want to prove his a man but Elliot cannot just give up while listening to his record he still try so hard to crack the code. The thing about breaking code is to think of it as a surface that needs to be scratch but not over scratch and also if you possess a think tank head then breaking codes will not be a problem for you, the only thing to wish for aside from that, is luck. Obviously when everybody try really hard to make a breakthrough in their lives, years and time don’t wait for us. It all just feel like yesterday when Ifey gave Elliot an inscription to solve, don’t ask me what happen after that because various variety of live have taking shape and evolve. Elliot is now a member of the National Youth Service Corps from the articulated truck he board when going for his youth corps meeting he notice a haggard looking man that so much like ifey to satisfy his curiosity he alighted from the truck walked close to ifey, in his mind he must have ponder and wonder why things have not improve in ifey’s life, from the street guy ifey now portrait he called out Elliot name, Elli he says. Mr Ifey I knew it is you I only needed to be sure Elliot says with a lot of enthusiasm ‘so you are now in the youth service corps, that’s one achievement but what will you do after the youth service ifey seek to know ‘I really do not know for now, we keep telling ourselves at the corps lodge about the limited job opportunities out there’ Elliot lament and in a jiffy he just came out with his new skill. ‘But I have some music skills I want to practice Elliot clarifies ‘good you want to be an artiste that will be a smart start Ifey says ‘yeah let me just give you a piece of what I wrote’

     Omoge wa fo momi jo

    Common I say omoge wa fo momi jo

   Oya omoge wa fo momi jo

Baby I can see you doing the tootsie roll and I’m just a youth

At this point Elliot looks nervous as his not sure if his ready to be a performer, life is a different stroke for different folks, Jasmine who is always ready for any kind of challenge is getting set for yet another surgery, the way she is going she will be genderless if only she confide in other people rather than her hairstylist her figure will still be quite good for some guy like Elliot, but she keep telling her stylist I want this shape I like that figure, well after the v jobs she’s probably going for the B&B enhancement. ‘hello darling come fix my hair real quick’ Jasmine state. ‘geez Jasmine why the hurry, calm dowm’ hairstylist point out ‘I have an appointment with my doctor’ says Jasmine ‘Appointment for another surgery, waoh that’s early you did one few months back’ hairstylist point out ‘the doctor just want to give me the details of how the surgery will work out, then maybe after some weeks he schedule another appointment for me’ she clarify ‘so which part of your body need to be fix, if I can put it that way; I hope I say that right’ stylist express ‘oh that’s okay I just want to get my boob boob up for you all to see’ she said excitedly like she just won a lottery she is always full of life. Ifey who is also thrilled about new found opportunity of Elliot skill, is making arrangement in all area for Elliot to succeed ‘Mama Blessing give me one cigarette’ Ifey still trying to figure out something ‘Mama Blessing you don see that lady wey always park for that tall building?’ Ifey asked ‘No I never see her today, but my girl tell me say she don see her today’ Mama Blessing reply. ‘na the lady dey come so, I dey come make I see her’ ifey state ‘ No wahala no forget my money for cigarrete’ Mama Blessing point out.

‘Madam Yalid well-done how’s work today’ Ifey asked. ‘Mr. Ifey good afternoon, work is good and what about you; hopefully you are able to keep yourself busy’ Madam Yalid express ‘ha trust me now I no dey dull myself, that’s part of the reason I want to see you’ Ifey clarify ‘ifey ifey here you come again with this help and help issue’ says yalid ‘wetin person go do na, na people like you will like to help me; but this one is different’ ifey state ‘okay let me know what is it’ yalid remark ‘yes na one of my friend that guy dey sing and rap and as you know me now I no dey hide my thought when I know say this thing go bring money’ ifey really trying to convince yalid ‘so as I hear the guy sing and rap I just reason am say this is an opportunity for this guy to blow’ ifey expressed ‘alright so how do I come in here? Yalid asked ‘the thing is the guy will be on stage to sing next week, and I want you to be there to listen to him and if you like the performance you can introduce him to some record company and DJ’ ifey imply ‘that will not be too much for me to handle, where is the venue? Yalid asked ‘the venue na adapt to condition place’ he remark ‘Adapt to condition place that’s nice and serene environ ‘okay see you next week, take care’ says Yalid ‘okay madam thank you see you next week’.

Music nowadays in this part of the world has evolve into new dimension gone are the days when foreign hip hop, rhythm and Blues is stick to our ear, somehow artiste have develop and improve on themselves to create song that are pleasant to us; for Elliot his a clever upcoming artiste and a good listener and he sometimes put it in his song. After several days of rehearsal, he receive a text message on his computer sent by ifey from his cyber café about the schedule and venue where Elliot will perform, to be certain is not a joke he went over to the cyber café to confirm from ifey. ‘Elli Elli my golden boy, you don see my message’ says ifey ‘yes I saw the message that’s why I’m here, I want the show to really go on as plan’ Elliot remark ‘ha yes o you think I dey joke, the show go happen’ he declare ‘Mr. ifey you are a man of your word and I like that, you said it and you are making it happen, you really mean business Elliot expreesed ‘trust me, now it is up to you to prove yourself and don’t forget if you need any help let me know’ ifey state ‘I am quite good and ready to go, I’ll see you at the venue’ says Elliot

‘Oh Elliot there you are, I have not come close to you for some days where have you been’ Jasmine asked Elliot is not comfortable with Jasmine asking him such question just at the front of her hairstylist salon ‘hmm I have been busy with my NYSC work’ Elliot remark. The stylist standing at the front of her salon is clueless of the relationship between them, though she is somehow confused about jasmine statement; especially the particular phrase ‘come close to you for some days’. ‘Alright I check up on you later, see you then’ Jasmine gesture with her hand, and of course she did go to Elliot place as they continue their strange affair. When the D-Day did come for the show Elliot was not nervous he was ready to knock his critics, and for Yalid she was very ready, she came with lots of brand to promote their goods and services. ‘Madam Yalid I know no say your people go plenty this way’ Ifey expressed ‘Ifey you know everything I do is business, this is even a small show; I did not bring all of them’ Yalid boast ‘ now is your boy turn to gladden our heart with his performance’ says Yalid ‘that one no be problem he go come out now’ says Ifey Like a star in the sky Elliot appears shining
