I got insulted because of food

Joy and I were staying together during our service year. On this day, she told me that she met a boy at the bank and he wants to see her again, so she talked me into following her to see him at a popular eatery not far from our house. Normally, I wouldn’t give it a thought before saying No, but it was almost month end and my “allawee” had finished. I asked if there would be free food, her reply was “why not”. I prepared not to interfere in their conversations or talk except I was spoken to.

We got to the eatery late ,and after exchanging pleasantries with the boy , I sat behind them. After two hours, Joy, my roommate wasn’t talking about food and I was hungry. I kept on giving her signals but she pretended not to see them. When I couldn’t hold my hunger again, I interrupted their conversations and almost dragged her to the toilet and asked for my food, she smiled and promised to ask him to buy food for both of us. We returned to our seats and next I heard was the boy’s horrible loud voice almost yelling “why would you bring your hungry friend? , I don’t have cash o”. All eyes in the eatery was turned to him and I had never been that embarrassed!. I just pretended not to know him and that he wasn’t talking about me. If not for my roommate and hunger i would have just gone home but she signaled for me to wait. She told him he was shouting and after so much discussion and whispers between them, He gave her his ATM card to buy us food. Sadly enough, i ate the food,

Hunger has no shame
