My parents got married in 1995. Last night, I watched their wedding video for the first time. Everything was normal until 37:42. Then the camera slowly panned across the guests. And I saw myself. Standing in the back row. Wearing a suit. Crying. I nearly dropped my laptop. I paused the video and zoomed in. Same face. Same height. Same mole on the left side of my neck. There was no mistake. I wasn’t born until 2001. I rewound it five times. Every time, the same thing. There I was, standing alone in the last row, tears running down my face, staring at my parents at the altar. But the expression on my face was worse than anything else. I looked like someone watching something he knew he would never see again. I immediately called my mother. Me: “Mom, did Dad have a brother? Someone who looked exactly like me?” Mother: “What? Why are you asking that?” Me: “Just answer me. Did he?” She went quiet. Mother: “Why are you asking?” I took a screenshot of the video and sent it to her. She called back 40 seconds later. Mother: “Come to the house. Right now.” Me: “Why? What’s going on?” Mother: “And don’t tell your father.” That last sentence scared me more than the video. I grabbed my keys and drove straight to my parents’ house. My mother was already waiting in the driveway when I arrived. She didn’t even let me get comfortable. Mother: “Before you say anything, I need to ask you something.” Me: “Mom, I’ve just watched myself standing at your wedding. I think you owe me several explanations.” She ignored that. Mother: “Have you ever felt like you’ve lived this exact day before?” Me: “What?” Mother: “This conversation. This moment. Everything happening today. Have you ever felt like it already happened?” My stomach dropped. Because I had. All morning, I’d been experiencing something I couldn’t explain. Every little thing felt familiar. The way I’d woken up. The video. The phone call. Even the drive to her house. It felt like I was remembering something that hadn’t happened yet. Me: “How did you know?” She didn’t answer. Instead, she unlocked her phone and turned the screen toward me. It was a photograph of me. Taken that morning. Same clothes. Same hairstyle. Same expression. I recognized the background immediately. It was my parents’ driveway. The timestamp in the photo’s metadata said 1995. I stared at the screen. Me: “Mom, this is impossible. This picture was taken today.” Mother: “I know.” Me: “Then why does it say 1995?” She took a deep breath. Mother: “Because I’ve been seeing you in photographs for 28 years.” I couldn’t move. Mother: “The wedding video. Old family photographs. Pictures taken before you were born. You’re always there.” Me: “How many pictures?” Mother: “Enough to know it’s always you.” Me: “And I’m always crying?” She nodded. Me: “Why am I crying?” She looked away. For a moment, I thought she was going to tell me. Instead, she walked inside and returned with an old envelope. Mother: “I found this years ago. I’ve been keeping it because I knew one day you’d ask.” She handed it to me. My handwriting was on the front. It was addressed to both my parents. The postmark was from 1995. My hands started shaking. I opened it. Inside was a short letter.

That moment Nathaniel Bassey called his wife “Babe” and the crowd couldn’t help but go “Awwwn!” 🥹❤️😂 And did anyone else notice Apostle Selman’s reaction? 😂😁 Be honest, was it Nathaniel Bassey’s sweet moment with his wife or Apostle Selman’s reaction that got you smiling? 😂

Yesterday, our neighbour bought a car, and we celebrated with him normally! But around 2 a.m., I woke up to pee and saw these people gathered around his car. Omo, I wasn't even surprised because the guy looks like a ritualist! 😐

One skill nobody will teach you as a married woman is sending your money to your family during festive periods or when you know they need support and telling them “my husband said I should give it to you.”
