Hope on mindviewers
I woke up early one morning to find a missed call from my younger brother. I couldn't help but wonder why he would call so early. Suspicion crept in as I questioned the reason behind this call. Sadly, I couldn't return it because I had insufficient airtime.
He persisted, sending me flash messages. It became clear I needed to call him back. Without delay, I decided to borrow airtime from MTN to reach out to him. Luckily, I was eligible for the offer.
As soon as I had the airtime, I dialed his number. He answered quickly, and after the usual greetings, I inquired about the reason for his early morning call. He seemed hesitant, unsure if I could assist him. Annoyed, I reminded him that he shouldn't have called if he wasn't sure I could help.
Eventually, he came to his senses and acknowledged my role as his older brother. He began explaining his situation. I realized I might not have enough to fulfill all his needs, so I asked which one was more urgent.
He mentioned needing money for his manual course registration, a sum of six thousand naira. It had to be paid urgently, by Monday. I initially knew I didn't have that money, but as an older brother, I felt obligated to help.
Then, I remembered having saved up 4,000 naira in my mindviewers account. It was a glimmer of hope. I quickly checked my account, and to my delight, my savings confirmed it
Then it was done on me that I also wrote a story the previous weekend for a competition ending that day. It could potentially add 2,000 naira to my funds, bringing it to the exact amount my brother needed.
I shared the story with my friends, hoping for their support. However, the problem arose when I realized my story was unopposed, making it impossible to accumulate more likes. I anxiously waited until 1 am to withdraw the money.
At 1 am, I received a disappointing message. I hadn't won the competition. Confused, I contacted @mindviewers to understand what had happened. It turned out that for unopposed stories, a minimum of 15 likes was required. I couldn't hold back my tears.
In the end, I couldn't raise the full 6,000 naira for my brother through the website, but I managed to secure 4,000 naira, which was a lifesaver. I'm grateful to @mindviewers for being a source of help.
