Akpos enters into a pharmacy<br />
reaches into his pocket and takes<br />
out a small bottle and a tea spoon. He pours<br />
some liquid onto the tea spoon and offers it to the<br />
chemist’s assistant, “Could you taste this please? Says Akpos.<br />
The chemist assistant takes the tea spoon, puts it in his mouth,<br />
swills the liquid and swallows it. “Does it taste sweet? “Says Akpos”, “No,<br />
not at all” says the chemist assistant. Good, says Akpos “The doctor told me<br />
to come here and get my urine tested for sugar.<br />
There were two old guys, Akpos<br />
and Emeka sitting on a bench outside<br />
Emeka’s house and talking about football just like<br />
they did every day. Akpos turns to Emeka and says, “Do<br />
you think there’s football in heaven? Emeka thinks about it for a<br />
minute and replies, I don’t know Akpos. But let’s make a deal: if I die first<br />
I will come back and tell you, and if you die first you come back and tell me if<br />
there is football in heaven. ”They shake on it and, sadly, a few months later poor Akpos<br />
passes on. One day soon afterward, Emeka is sitting on the bench by himself when he hears<br />
a voice whisper, “Emeka…Emeka…Emeka responds, “Akpos! Is that you? “Yes it is me,<br />
Emeka,” “whispers the spirit of Akpos. Emeka, still amazed asks, “So is there football<br />
in heaven?” “Well” say Akpos, “I got good news and I got bed news. “Give me<br />
the good news first,” says Emeka. Akpos says “Well… there football in<br />
heaven.” Akpos sighs and whispers, “But you re playing<br />
on Friday.”<br />
