Once upon a time, there lived two sisters who were twins. They were living with their parents who were poor. Their parents struggled everyday to make both ends meet. Their father was full of wisdom and he always created time to many counsel his daughters about the need to be patient in whatever they were doing. He talked to them about so man other virtues, like tolerance, endurance, good behavior and he always ended his talks with a saying that "whoever had patience had everything."
When these twins were eighteen years old, their father died. They felt greatly the impact of their father's demise because they lost a good companion who also counselled them and a breadwinner. Soon after the death of their father, their mother found things difficult. As a result of this. she took the twins to her distant relation who was living a few kilometres away.
Their mother's relation accepted them but he was a cruel man who maltreated the girls so much They were to do all the house chores at home and followed the man to the farm. While they worked so hard at home, the man's only daughter will sleep endlessly. She was very lazy and spoilt. One day, Bolaji, the man's daughter went to the man's room and stole four thousand naira. The man was so furious and called the twins to his parlour. He concluded that it was the twins who must have stolen the money. They were beaten and punished heavily for the money they didn't take.
The hard life and suffering continued for a long time. One day, Kehinde called her twin sister. Taiwo and told her that she wanted to run away to their mother. Taiwo reminded her that she should be patient as their late father used to tell them when he was alive. Kehinde refused to listen to her sister's advice, and soon after she ran back to their mother. When she got home, she couldn't continue her education because there was no money. She got married when she was twenty one to a poor man who couldn't take good care of her. Soon after her marriage, their mother also died.
Taiwo felt the grieve of her mother's death and she determined more than ever before to be patient to get what she wanted. She finished her secondary school and gained admission into a university to study Accountancy. As time went on. the man she was living with grew to like her and he decided to sponsor her education at the university. Bolaji, the biological daughter of the man, had dropped out of secondary school and she had become a wayward and virtueless girl without a bright future.
Taiwo finished her university education and graduated as an Accountant. Three years after her graduation, she got married to a pilot and she lived happily with her husband. After her marriage she got a job with an international organization which necessitated that she should go and work in the United States of America.
Before she travelled to the United States of America. a send-off party was organised for her. The man who sponsored her to school was invited to the party. Bolaji and Kehinde were also present at the party. When the man rose up to talk about Taiwo, he praised her for her endurance and patience. He ended his speech by saying that "I really agree that a patient dog eats the fattest bone."
