Your Ex vs A Party

So, you’re getting ready to attend your friend’s birthday barbecue.

Just as you get into your car, your phone rings. It’s the brother of your ex. Your ex has just had an accident. The brother of the ex, starts begging you to come to the hospital.

The ex is an ex, because they treated you like dirt & left you (male or female, as it applies to you).

After you end the call, you turn on the ignition of your car. Where would you go – hospital or barbecue venue?

And why?

Remember Chioma Nnani, the writer whose book excerpt I published a few days ago? I found this post on her FB wall and thought it would be interesting to share here.

If it were you, where would you go?

    My bible teaches me about forgiveness… What if I was the one in his or her shoes.

    Hospital first, no matter what must have led to the breakup no one deserves to get hurt. Get 2 d hospital, know why my presence was requested and if I have to stay I will, if not I’ll get down to the party.

    hospital first. because may be this person it was his last day on earth. he could have been seeking for forgiven so that he can rest in peace.

    Definitely the hospital first. And this is because I value people more than events. And I esteem relationship more than selfish gains or ego. We have broken up, but we are still humans.
