SHE Wanted An Expensive WEDDING,She Then WENT And Did THIS… #story #folklore #tales #Africantales – Ty

Nea sat at her wooden chair sewing one anchor fabric. Her hands were moving fast and she was sewing the fabric but her mind was far away. She was just 26, a tailor living in Enugu. She wanted something big, something beautiful, not just a small life. Neca was engaged to a young man named Ema was just a civil servant.

He earned just enough to pay rent and feed them. He just afford basic things like rice, beans, sometimes Gary and that was all. But Neca wanted more. She wanted a wedding like Instagram Baddy’s wedding. the one that has chandeliers hanging from the roof with imported gowns that they stone like snow and a golden cat for the invitation.

A maker had proposed in a little way he can and he has told the neca severally that they will have a very small wedding the one he can afford. But Nea wanted more. She wanted to walk down the aisle and people will be saying, “Ah, this is the most beautiful bride we have ever seen.

” But whenever she looked at a Mecca’s brown shoe and his ironed old shirt, her heart squeezed, she became sad. EA was a good man. He was canned and he loved her so much. But the only problem was that do not have money. And this bothered neck so much. Sometimes whenever she sits on her mat, she would be thinking and asking God, why did you give me big dreams? I’m just a poor man.

Neca’s heart was really restless. The next morning, AA being romantic the little way he can be, brought her some food. Hello my baby girl, my love. Oana, your favorite Aara and Pap. Eat well. Oh, he looked so tired from sewing. Leica forced herself to smile and also said thank you. But in her heart, she knew that this is not the life she wanted.

Aara and Pap, can you imagine this man? She said to herself, is it not your m that are serving their wife to be on bed with enough bread, papara everywhere with liquid milk? See me I’m drinking a carara pap and sugar with no milk. She kept on ming but aa did not hear any. After neca finished that food her best friend visited. Her best friend Ada was a very loud and honest lady.

She dropped her handbag immediately she came in and sat on the plastic chair in the room and started gisting with her friend. H neca are you still sewing these same clothes? Don’t you really get tired sometimes? Like I laughed my dear, it is work. Oh, and work does not kill if I don’t do this. How will I earn? I will not depend on my husband to leave who only earn peanuts from his salary work.

I beg just leave me alone. I lean forward. H But you know that your wedding is coming. How will you now manage with a Mecca small salary as you call it? Nika’s face changed immediately. Well, don’t remind me. Don’t remind me about his small salary. I don’t really know how I’m going to do about this. H my friend, you better think fast. Wedding is not beans.

If you want big wedding, you need big money. But I suggest you work according to your husband’s budget, not go do B yourself, fool. I hear you, madame preacher. I’ve heard you. But truly, Mika did not hear anything. Her mind was still on a very lavish wedding. That was what she wanted. She wanted to show all her friends that she had packed a very big bag.

But unfortunately for her, EA does not have that kind of money. That night, after Ada finally left, she sat on the mat and was scrolling through Instagram and Tik Tok. And there she went on seeing different wedding halls, decorations, bridal wedding gown that cost millions. And she kept on imagining herself or more.

I want this life and I must have this kind of wedding I want. It’s just once in a lifetime. Why won’t I have the kind of wedding I want? And she was still wishing for a good wedding and a very expensive wedding. I can scroll through a post where one popular lady a wedding planner she posted luxury wedding planner meets an assistant work with the richest bride in Nigeria apply by DM’s heart be fast she read it again luxury wedding planner she opened the woman’s file it was Madame Goat’s event a famous wedding planner in Lagos She had over 200,000 followers on

Instagram. The pictures on her page looked like magic. A bride walking in white panels. A beautiful hall blowing with a lot of chandeliers. Men in suits clapping as firework bust behind a couple. Nea was shocked. Kai, this is it. This is the life I want. Oh god, this is my dream wedding.

Then I went back to that post and continue reading in the comment section and it says that the Madame Gold event is going to choose a bride that she will be working with and that bride is going to get the best luxury wedding only if the bride pass the test they will be putting on. Like I was so nervous. She started having doubts in her mind.

What if they do not choose me? I am just a small town to I don’t even have any fine phone or fine clothes like I almost gave up. But something inside her kept on pushing her telling her to try. Just try. She then sent a message to Madame Bold event. Good evening. My name is Inka. I’m a very hardworking, stylish and ready to learn.

If I am eventually picked, I will be so happy ma and my wedding is just coming up in just one more time and I’ll be the most happiest bride on earth. She just press send then she waited 1 minute, 2 minutes, 5 minutes. Then her phone vibrated. A reply came from Madame Gold event. Come to Lagos this weekend interview at 2:00 p.m. Do not be late.

Leica screamed out of joy. She jumped off from where she is and she ran towards Ada’s house. When she got there, Ada, see why are you shouting like that? Because I was surprised seeing her shouting. Is the police pursuing you? Why not shouting and running like that? Like I was still panting. Hey, I got it.

I got it. Madame Gold wants to see me in Lagos. Ada’s eyes widened in shop. Madame Gold, the popular wedding planner. Yes, she’s doing one contest like that. You will join her when you pass. And if you’re a bride and your wedding is closed, they will sponsor all the decorations. Oh, God. At that, I will finally have my dream wedding.

H Nea, I think you should not rejoice yet, though. Are you sure this is safe? You don’t really know this woman. And Legos is not a noo. I can wave that off. Well, this is my chance, my only chance. And I cannot miss it for anything. Anyways, you and this your Instagram dream. I just hope it will not swallow you one day. Just be careful, Sha.

That’s all I can say. That night, Mecca could not sleep. She spread all her clothes on the bed, but none looked fine enough to use and travel. They were just old and carara gowns that she had sewn for herself and Emma had not even gotten her any beautiful dress for going out. She frowned and said to herself, “Oh, this thing will not do.

I think Adan need to help me.” She immediately rushed to Ada’s house the next morning. My friend, I beg, help me. Lend me one or two of your dresses. Please, let me use it and go to that place because I don’t have anything presentable to go to. And you know that they said that the way you look instead they will address you.

I don’t want to be looking like one poor church girl. At that rolled her eyes looked at her again and said to her see you know I have a very soft heart and anytime you come to me I would always give you but I’m begging you make sure you bring my clothes back home. Bring it clean the way I give it to you make sure you return it that same way.

If you stain it I will kill you. Jokingly she went inside and brought out few dresses and gave to her like was so grateful. She thanked her and she left. Like I returned home and decided to tell a Mecca about the journey she was trying to embark on. Babe, tomorrow morning I’m going to Lagos. I was chosen by one popular event planner.

According to the rules of whatever they are doing, it says that the winner will be given a free wedding decoration and babe I want to get that free wedding decoration. Please I want our wedding to be the talk of the town. Okay. Aa looked at her ha I’ve been saving little by little for this our wedding. We may not have much but our love will make it beautiful.

Let us work according to our budget. Let us cut our clothes according to our size. You don’t need to go to this league also. I am just telling you just if you want to change your mind. You can do a small wedding. I will not work as a civil servant forever. I have plans of opening shops, you know, doing a lot of things.

I’m begging you, please, if you can change your mind about this Lagos worker. Please change it. Eh, I would love you to change it if you if you change it, I’ll be very happy. Let’s work according to our budget. This Lagos thing looks like a scam. Like looked at the crack walls of their small room. She wanted to scream at a for talking nonsense with his mouth.

But she stayed quiet. She only told him, “See, if I go to Lagos and I noticed that it is a scam, you will see me back in this village the next day. I will not even stay for long. I understand you. I also want to live a life full of love. But babe, money is important and having a luxury wedding. One, a lifetime wedding of my time. P. I want to have it though.

Please. Aa did not argue. He did not push her to stop. He only gave her the best support she can get. He wished her well and asked her to always wash her back. Cuz Lagos is a place that you need to shine your eyes very well or else they will send you back to your village empty-handed like I was grateful.

And the next morning she boarded a bus to Lagos. The journey was long but her heart was beating in every mile. She was so happy. She didn’t know what she will encounter. But she was just unnecessarily happy as if she has won the competition already. She already started imagining herself inside a grand hall.

She saw chandeliers above her head. She saw rich men and women clapping for her. She saw herself walking like a queen in her expensive bridal gown like I was still daydreaming. When the bus reached the last bus stop and she got down, she was able to find Okada riders that helped her and she located the glass building in Victoria Island where Mama Gold event building are being located.

Immediately she entered. She was so shocked. The building was so beautiful. She first walked to the front desk. Good morning. No, I’m here to see Madame Gold. The lady looked at her from head to toe. Oh, you should be the new girl, right? Please sit and wait. Neca sat and wait for a little while before she was directed to the office where a tall woman in a beautiful gown and bold makeup was sitting and it turns out to be Madame Gold.

She looked at Neca once then removed her sunglasses. You are late, madam. Neca’s heart dropped out of nervousness. I I came on time. I’m sorry it was traffic but I go raise a hand. Excuses I hate it so much but because you are pretty that’s a good start. So can you tell me why you enter this competition? Eh ma it’s because I love weddings and I would love you to you know organize my own.

My wedding is coming up in a few months and with this little outreach I will learn a lot about how to do event planning, decorations. I don’t mind even starting it after my wedding. Well, that is what everyone says. But this word is not easy. Can you be able to keep up? Madame Gold asked Neca. Neca nodded. Yes, ma’am. I can.

She then continued. Well, we shall see. If you pass this test, you will enter a new word, a word of power, beauty, and riches. Madame Bo’s words, we just ruling out like honey and fire at the same time. Like I was given where she would stay, and the next day she started walk. Madame Go, the wedding planner, was different from anyone else she had ever met. She moved like a queen.

Her perfume filled the room. Immediately she walked in. Her phone never stopped ringing and she kept on answering. Hello senator. Yes, yes, we’ll add more flowers. Hello chef. Of course, the champagne should be imported. She kept on answering business call up and down and that was making neca’s head to go big.

She followed her around and she showed her few things about event planning. Then by evening when the last staff had left, madame god inside, sit down on neca I want to talk to you. She called herself a little and also gave a leer. Well, do you know the truth about these weddings you’re seeing on social media? No ma, what do you mean? Well, my dear, love does not pay for a goldplated invitation.

Love does not buy imported gown. Love cannot rent a hall for 50 million naira. Can’t you see that this quest is too good to be true? How do you think I can sponsor your wedding and give you out all this millions just like that without getting anything in return? Let me tell you [ __ ] rich men pay sponsors, politicians, chef, even married billionaires.

They are the real wallet behind this weddings you see online. Like I was shocked. Eh, so are you telling me it’s not the groom that normally pay for all those big weddings? Well, sometimes the groom, but mostly it is powerful men who want to show face. They enjoy seeing the bride dance in luxury.

And the brides, they don’t care as long as the big day is trending on Instagram. They are ready to do anything. Though this is a secret that no one knows, just as you are surprised finding out today. Wow. So this was the secret now. Wow. So this is how perfect weddings are being made. I don’t know about all this. But I go smiled. You want that kind of wedding too, don’t you? Like I hesitated. Eh, yes.

I want to go then said to her, “Good girl. Then you must learn again. If you want a perfect wedding, you need someone bigger than your groom to pay for it.” like I was still confused. What do you mean ma’am? And go told her to relax that very soon she would introduce her to friends in the industry and from there the support will come.

It did not waste time but I go introducing Nea to few friends in the industry. One of them was Chief Okori. He came to Madame Goat’s office that faithful day. He was a handsome man and when he entered he looked at from head to toe and smiled in a very mischievous way. So Madame Gold, is she the new assistant? The new girl you got from the online contest you did? Yes, Madame Go replied, “Beautiful.

Very beautiful. How are you?” Chief Okore asked Neca. Neca smiled. Good evening sir. I am fine sir. Immediately, Chief Okori dropped his card in her palm. Call me. I like to help ambitious young women like you get what they want. Nea smiled back and collected the card. By evening, when she returned back to the room that was given to her, she kept on staring at the card.

She thought of Echa sleeping in her small room in she thought of the chandeliers, the imported gown, and the gold invitation. She thought of everything she had ever wanted and how poor her fiance is. She decided to give Chifokor a call. Afterwards, Chifokor invited her to a dinner. I thought wore a very beautiful gown that day and she attended the dinner.

After the dinner, Chifokor promised to send her money for the wedding. They spent the whole evening together. Just 2 days after Neca met with Chief Okori, she was sitting on her room when she received a big alert. Neca checked her phone and it was 30 million NRA. It has entered her account. Neck almost fainted.

She had never seen such money in her life. Never. She screamed, dance around the room. This is it. This is how my twin be. Hey, thank you to Madame Gold. She ran to Madame Hood immediately. Mam look for has sent me money 30 million NRA. But God only smiled. My dear, welcome to the game. Use it well. People will envy you. But remember, one sponsor is never enough.

If you need more sponsor, you know what to do. And remember the contract. Now that you’ve gotten the money, we will publicly tell the whole world that we sponsored your wedding for free. Agreed and immediately she began wedding preparation. She booked a hall in one of the biggest. She ordered flowers from Dubai.

She contacted a designer in Lagos for her gown. On Tik Tok and Instagram, she posted everything she was doing. # wedding of the year coming soon. soft life bride loading. People were liking. Some people were even tapping from the blessing not knowing where it was coming from. Some girls envied her. When a Mecha noticed how lavishly Nea was busy spending, he had to call her and ask her some question.

My dear, are you sure all these things are for free? Nea smiled. Ah, she be I told you God has opened doors for us. see our wedding. Our wedding will be the talk of the town, nothing more. The maker decided to trust his wife to be. Then one week to the wedding, everything was ready. The hall was decorated. The gold invitation was printed and was distributed to people.

Nea tried out her wedding gown for the first time in front of a mirror and she was so happy. This perfect. This is the wedding I’ve always dreamed of. But little does she know that the devil was waiting for her, waiting for the appointed time, the perfect timing to do her very bad.

That night, a gossip blog posted some screenshots, private chats between the Neca and Chief. They posted Neca’s chat begging money from Chief Okori and also her chat thanking him for taking care of her all throughout the night. The headline of that blog said, “Bride of the year is a bologn property. Chief Okore funds everything.

The internet exploded. It was what people always wanted. They love bad news a lot. People laughed and the comment section was on fire. E. So it was sponsor money after all. Fake love, fake life. So all this while this girl have been peppering us after sleeping with a rich man. Now wow for this girl.

So they can be so desperate too. Unfortunately for Nea saw that post. He was shocked when he read it and saw the picture of his own right to be flying all around social media including his own. He was not left out. The whole world was gossiping calling the neck names. Aha could not hear it. He rushed to where neck was staying.

Yeah. What is the meaning of this? Eh please tell me this is a lie. Tell me this is a prank. just few days to our wedding froze because she had not even seen the report already. She was still busy planning her wedding. She tried to explain please it’s not what you think. It was it was just to help us. See, nothing happened. Nothing happened.

It just they just the man just sent me money to to help us with the wedding. Help us and you sold yourself. You make me a fool. Are you being serious? Why did you lie that the the sponsor of our wedding was free while you already paid a big price for it? I’m sorry, babe. Please, I did this for us, for the wedding.

But America was so pissed off and angry. Nea, love is better than this nonsense thing you just did. I told you. But you choose gold over me. The wedding is off. I told you, let us plan with what we have. I beg you, let us just do this wedding with few friends and family. The online people will all right.

Who were you trying to even impress in the first place? And I know who eh maker was so pissed off. He then turned towards her. Mei this wedding is called off and there is nothing that will make me change my mind after you have dragged me to the mud like this. zoomed off and banged the door behind him.

Mea fell on the floor, holding her chest, crying so badly. She had dreams of becoming the best at her wedding. The chandeliers, the gold invitations, the Dubai flowers. Suddenly, all of this meant nothing to her because she had lost a maker. She had lost the one thing that was real. The main reason why she went to do all the rubbish she did like I locked herself up in her room for who three days. She cried her eyes out.

Her eyes were really swollen from cry. She could not eat and she could not sleep. The wedding was gone. The maker was also gone and now her name was a joke online. if she opens her Instagram account, Facebook account or Tik Tok. The kind of comments there were really bad. H sling pride of the year that went and slept with a chief just for money or more women of these days.

E lost control just because of a big wedding. A woman sold her dignity. What a bad greedy bride. It’s like she wants to become the politician’s wife. Number four, people mocked Neca. Neca was so angry. As if that was not enough, she then saw a post that Mecha did saying that he has called off the wedding because Acha did this thing publicly. This made Mecca so angry.

She threw her phone on the floor and started crying the more. Why me? Why now? Why did you do this? You are very wicked. After everything, I did all of this for you. I wanted us to have the perfect wedding, the perfect life afterwards. Now you went and ruined me the more online. Must you tell the whole world that you called off the wedding so that you will feel like the bigger person, it shall never be well with you.

Ah, this man is very wicked. For the first time, Neca stepped out of her room and she walked on the street like a shadow. As she was walking, she bumped on one old woman who looked at her and said, “You are broken young lady. Do you want revenge?” Like turned immediately and looked at her. How do you know? The old woman smiled. My name is Mama Do.

I help people who are hot. Tell me, child, what do you want? Mecca looked at her. I want to make a Mecha regret leaving me. I want to make a Mecha feel the pain I am feeling right now. He must not go free. After all, I did all of this for the two of us. Why would I be the only one to pay for it? The old woman looked at her and said, “Remember that revenge is not cheap.

It has consequences, too. But if you want it done, it will never be free. You have to pay something immediately. Like I had the money, she agreed. Pay any amount I am willing to pay. Just make sure that a maker feels the pain I am feeling. The woman took her to her hut. They both sat down and the woman brought out a black pot.

Inside a black pot, she picked egg and gave to her. Mea collected the egg. The woman now asked her, “Hold this egg very well and round your head with it three times.” As you are doing that, call a Mecca’s name three times and say whatever you want to happen to him. Immediately, Mecca did so out of anger. After that, she begged the woman and she left.

Because of the fact that Enka already called off the wedding, he decided that they would go to church and do Thanksgiving on that wedding day that has been cancelled. The whole family agreed and they went. As they’re still doing their Thanksgiving, all of a sudden, Acha coughed. At first, the cough was really small, but the second one and the third one was bad.

He couldn’t breathe properly. He landed on the floor vomiting blood. Everyone was screaming. Jesus, somebody help. Mecca collapsed on the floor. And fortunately for a one of the relative that came for that Thanksgiving is a doctor. He was the one that decided to attend to him. Meanwhile, Leica went back to Lagos.

She wanted to go and visit Madame Boat’s office and asked her how the chat between her and her client leaked because it’s as if someone leaked it on purpose just to mock her. But unfortunately for her, the guard blocked her and told her that he was instructed not to let her in no matter what. Like I was confused. But why? I’m here to see Madame Good.

Help me and call her. But the girl tried to explain to her that it’s not possible because Madame Gold herself was the one that gave the instruction that no one should let her in. So it is better she leaves or the gu will bundle her out. Ma had no option than to leave. As she stepped out, she picked up her phone and tried calling Chief Okori.

His phone was switched off. on WhatsApp. She noticed that she had been blocked. There is no way she could get to Shifore and there is no way she can get through to Madame Gold. Everyone have abandoned her. She’s only there to pay for the consequences of her action. Ma decided to go back home.

Meanwhile, at the church when a Mecca collapsed and someone was attending to him, his mother being a prayer warrior started praying and casting all the evil on her son out. As people saw this, they joined her. The prayer continued. The pastor also joined as they were praying and praying. All of a sudden, let her was on her own. She wore the wedding gown admiring it inside her room when something struck her.

She ran out holding the wedding flower and the wearing the wedding gown at the same time. As she was walking, she was just screaming and yelling as if she was trying to talk to someone, but no one was talking to her. I guess you know what happened. She has started running mad and that was how got himself. neck.

I paid for the consequences of doing black magic or something bad in a very strange way just to take revenge on something you knew that you were wrong at. But my best is you all should agree with me that marriage is not for show. Actually, if you can afford a luxury wedding, why not go for it? But if you cannot, cut your clothes according to your size.

After all, there are still big big men out there who do not like big weddings. They prefer to do their wedding with just their relative and everybody go back home to face their life because the main life begins after the marriage not during the marriage.
