I lived in the same block as her in Hennenman, my hometown.
She was one of a kind I tell you.
That kind of girl we on our block defined beauty by.
she turned heads. She made every guy in my
crew feel they could speak better poetry than Shakespeare.
And yes, I had the privilege to befriend her.
She is very sensitive and more on the cautious side, or
at least she was then. So in case you wondering if
I did try my luck, the answer is hell yes.
But the only thing she picked up from me is that I have
a sweet mouth and therefore she couldn't tell whether
what I uttered was real or not. So she couldn't
trust me and that was fair enough for me.
And that's how Masta, as we call her, and myself became
friends.
That's when I learnt, she has the sweetest heart. She just likes
hearing me go on about my love life.
And I on the other hand, just being in her presence
was enough for me since I couldn't get any more
than friendship.
So I made this drawing of her out of remembrance of our
friendship and to show the world the beauty
my hometown has. Carefully picked the color of the background
and the butterfly to express her femininity.
Making this drawing was just joy, 'specially after the reaction I
got from her after she saw it for the first time.
Hey Masta, hope you're well:)
