Uncle, you are using a broken bucket in your house, lolz

There is this funny experience I want to share, it happens few years ago, precisely in 2021. I bought one rubber bucket, the reason I bought the bucket was for me to be using it in soaking of dirty clothes, like white shirts and singlets, so that when I want to wash them, I wouldn't have to scrub it so much for the clothes to become clean.

So, there was no water in the compound I was staying for days, and during those days, all tenants fetched water outside, it didn't take up to a week, the water tank was repair and water starts flowing in each of the rooms we had in the compound.

Due to that happiness, I rush into my room with excitement, hand pick most of my clothes that were dirty and wash them, I was very tired after washing, unfortunately, I didn't know when the bucket fell from my hands and it broke.

It was a rubber bucket after all, so I wasn't all that bother, it was the upper side of the bucket that broke, so I was still managing it, I kept it in my restroom, so that if I have white clothes to soaked and washed afterward, I will easily do it.

One fateful day, my neighbor came to my room and asked me to help him with my bucket, I told him i had no bucket, because he will not be able to used the broken bucket i had, he insists he wants to see it, so I brought it out for him to see, he refused to use it, I took the bucket inside the restroom.

It almost skip my mind that my mother told me she was going to visit me that day, so, it was not up to twenty minutes, I see a call from her, she told me to come over to the park and pick them, I went there, and she was with my nephew. My nephew saw me first, and he ran and gave me a hug, I carry him up, and starting from that time, my nephew began to tell me so many things he knows I am missing at home.

I was listening to him, as he continues talking, gisting me so many things that happened at home i was not aware of, we arrived at my residents and the first thing my nephew did was to enter into my restroom, he wanted to pee.

Mom brought so many things from the village for me, she was showing me each of those home brought, and I begin to eat the plumb, star apple and a lot of the things that were eatable.

I heard my nephew screaming in the restroom, I was freighten and I rush to the restroom to check what was going on with him, when I got there, I was surprised to hear from him that my bucket irritate him, he couldn't believed, I am using a broken bucket in my room, so I should change it, because it doesn't look nice.

I told my nephew my buckets are with my neighbor, and he is using it to wash his clothes outside, I said that just to make him calm down, then this broken bucket he sees here in the restroom is just what I used to soaked my white clothes.

The funniest part was that, my nephew told me he understands me, but he doesn't think, others people, like my friend's, will understand me the way he did, so I should better hurried up and buy a new bucket, so that they wouldn't laugh at me, if they visit me.

That is to say, he didn't believed what i said, he knows I was lying, I didn't want him complaint about my broken bucket again.

That makes me go to the rubber shop and bought a bucket, when I came back my nephew smile and show his thirty two teeth.

There spent three days with me, when they went back, I can't stopped to laugh at myself, I told my friend about what my Nephew said to me, and the guy was surprised, if it was that my nephew he saw that actually said something like that, I was happy my nephew came with my mom after all.
