Kojo Kasa: I love you. I’d like us to get to know each other better and see what the future holds.
Bella Bills: Expressing love is no big deal…
Kojo Kasa: How so?
Bella Bills: If you love me, you have to prove it in material terms.
Kojo Kasa: Material terms, meaning…?
Bella Bills: Meaning you take charge of my expenses. You pay my utilities, refill my gas cylinder when it’s empty, and take care of my electricity bills. You fix my hair and nails so I can look attractive for you. My general upkeep becomes your responsibility.
Kojo Kasa: That’s a lot!
Bella Bills: What were you thinking? That I’m some cheap lady or what? If you love me, you have to take charge. Your responsibility towards me begins the very day you express interest. And by the way, my birthday is next week—Monday.
Kojo Kasa: Really? Happy birthday in advance.
Bella Bills: Thank you. But you have to prove yourself. Wishing me a happy birthday orally doesn’t tickle my tongue. You gotta show some dough!
Kojo Kasa: Wow! Loving you sounds like full-time employment. Your father must have spent a fortune on your mother before finally
marrying her.
Bella Bills: Nonsense!
