Akpors met a beautiful girl and
agreed to spend the
afternoon with her for N50k.
They did their thing, and, before he left, he told her that he did not have any cash with him, but will
send a cheque through his secretary, enclosed in an envelop tagged,
"RENT FOR APARTMENT."
On the way to the office Akpors regretted what he had
done, realizing that the whole event had
not been worth the price.
So, he sent his secretary with a
cheque for N25k and
enclose the following typed note:
"Dear Madam:
Enclosed find cheque in the amount
of N25k for rent of your apartment. I am not sending the
amount agreed upon,
because when I rented the place, I
was under the impression that:
#1 - it had never been
occupied;
#2 - there was plenty of heat; and
#3 - it was small enough to make
me feel cozy and at home.
However, I found out that it had been previously occupied,
that there wasn't any heat, and that it was entirely too large."
Upon receipt of the note, the girl
immediately returned the check
for N25k with the
following note :
"Dear Sir:
First of all, I cannot
understand how you could expect a
beautiful apartment to remain unoccupied
indefinitely. As for the
heat, there is plenty of it, if you know how to turn it on. Regarding the space, the apartment is indeed of regular size, but if you don't have enough furniture to fill it, please do not
blame the management.
Please send the rent in full or we will be forced to contact
your present landlady!
