First Kiss as a Yoruba Girl; Did I Forget It?
I do not recall when I lost the memory of my first kiss. I am quite good with memories, you see. However, happenings as I am about to describe are not exactly things most people want to remember. Maybe my five year old brain registered it under a suppressed category from the word…
