Mrs Onome : Oh,Nick.. So this is how you act if am not at. home, or does this sitting room looks like a club to you ehh?
Me : (still thinking how to reply her) Ehrm ehrm….
Mrs Onome : What is Ehrm?? Or you can’t talk again? Do you what me to help you talk?
(I was still there looking at her, I was lost. then she raised her hand to give me the slap of my life #Lol, suddenly we heard a knock at the door *Thank God for that knock* she put down her hand and shouted who is that? It was Tunde. Tunde is our gate keeper,he is also a friend of mine, he always knows when am in hot soup and he will always try to interrupt *thank God I have him around )
Mrs Onome : What is it this time tunde?
Tunde : Madam, peson find you come o,the peson give me this letter make i give you.

(I picked race outside the sitting room,I got outside and i saw tunde waving at me,he was at the security post.I also wave at him,giving him a *thumbs up* I brought out the things she bought and carried them straight to the kitchen. I was about to drop the stuff and i heard my name again, I rushed out to answer my madam )
Me : Ma!
Mrs Onome : Where is sara?
Me : She went out to see a friend,she said she will be back soon.
Mrs Onome : Take this #4000, go and get fuel for the night and be fast about it.

*In my street in Lagos,which is at ikeja , I was well known by some area boys, they’ve got my back anytime i ran into any form of trouble,anytime i got to there point, I’ll drop like #300,I know is too small but i prefer it that way than dropping nothing.. I saw them and they started hailing my name as if am the President,, I drop some cash and one of them carried me with his bike to the filling station where i got fuel of #3000, the rest na my pocket money nau.
The guy also drove me back home,he collected nothing from me sha,I rushed to the generator house and pour all the fuel inside the generator to avoid telling my madam stories that touches, because she will always expect me to show her the fuel before pouring it inside the gen.
I got inside the house,sara was at home already, she was discussing with her mum at the sitting room
*but e no consign me*, I went straight to my room to drop the change inside my bag, *trust me* am good in saving money *winks* as i came out of my room i over heard my madam telling sara she was gonna travel,but still not sure of what i heard,I move to the kitchen to arrange for dinner. I watched the plate and cleaned every corner of the kitchen. Mrs onome can never allow me to cook unless she is not home, sara came to the kitchen and was like)
Sara : Mummy said you should be fast with whatever you are doing here,she needs to cook before it gets late.
Me : have heard you, by the way madam sara, why do you leave without shutting the door? your mum nearly gave me a hot slap.

I finished what I was doing i called my madam and she came in and start cooking,I was there assisting her with whatever she may need.. We prepared the meal,she served the meal while i cleaned the kitchen again and after when am done, i ate my food there in the kitchen by then my madam and sara was through eaten theirs.

After freshening up,Then i opened the door. The sound in the sitting room got me thinking who was there this early,It can’t be my madam because am sure she will be dressing for work.
I came out and saw sara watching mtv base,she never saw me as i walk through the kitchen to warm the meal,I make sure the kitchen is clean then i started cleaning the sitting room,sara was still focused watching the TV. Until i get closer to where she was sitting that’s when she knew i was there.

* No, madam would have inform me nau.
* It might be true,because last night she was discussing with her daughter about traveling issues.
* Or may be the visitor is just coming to help out.
* But I see no work in this house o
(I keep on asking my self questions without knowing the answers to them all. I was not happy because I’ve not done what i came here for.. At least madam would have help me get something doing before planning to send me out, Oh Lord what have i done? I was lost in thought. Not knowing sara have been calling my name. She came closer to where i was seating then she tapped me on my shoulder.
Sara : Nicholas, what’s the problem, ve been calling you but you never answered, ok. Is it because of what i said to you yesterday, am truly sorry.
Me (I don’t know what to say but finally i said to her) Am fine sara.
Sara : but why is your mood like this? Please forget anything that is bothering you,I know have not been good to you,but honestly, you are like a brother to me ok.
Me : *surprised* Am fine sara, I was just having a slight headache, but I’ll be fine.
Sara : Ok.. Can you please make tea for me or should i do it my self since you are not ok?
Me : No, don’t worry, I’ll make it myself, thanks
Sara : *smiled* thank you
( She left me there.. I stood up and walk straight to the kitchen to make tea for her, and also wondering how sara changed suddenly.. Hmmm,Nawaa o,,. I carried the tea cup and also brought bread, gave it to her,as she smiled to me again.. I went to my room.. I wasn’t thinking of what tunde told me this time,I just focused on sara suddenly change. The day goes down,I used the detergent that was remaining to clean the house and make sure everything was neat.
I pocket the money my madam gave to me.. Sara on the other hand did not go for lectures she was home through out the day.. I was waiting for my madam and the visitor, I don’t mind leaving the house,but i was never gonna go back to the village. #GOD FORBID
It was 7:30pm already.. I heard tunde opening the gate,finally it was madam,I was looking to see who the visitor was,but she wasn’t so clear to me,because its getting dark, they both came in.. With the visitor carrying her bag.. Nicholas!!! I heard my name, I rushed down stairs, and my madam said to me.
Mrs Onome : where is sara?
Me : she is inside her room..

I took my madam luggages to her car and arranged it inside the boot of the car, I got inside and we all prayed together,after praying,mrs onome hugged the two girls, when it gets to my turn to my greatest surprise she hugged me also.

She walk through the exit door followed by stella and me, she entered the car. Sara also entered,she told yvonne to join them,that i should take care of the house.. They drove through the get, tunde was already there saluting. She stopped,I sighted her giving tunde something but i was sure it is money.. She drove out of the compound completely. Tunde closed the gate and start counting the money. I called is name and he did not respond,I was sure he was still angry because of what i said to him.
I walked straight to his post and we engaged in the following conversation.

I was waiting for the girls to come back, I stayed with tunde till 9 : 00 am but they didn’t show up. I was about going in when we heard horn. Tunde rushed to open the gate, I looked clearly and it was yvonne driving..
*i said it,this yvonne is not from the village*
I left tunde at the gate to meet the girls, yvonne packed the car,I opened the boot immediately and brought out every thing they bought.
We got inside, and sara said to me.
Sara : Nick can you imagine yvonne knows the road to the airport? I never directed her while coming back.
Me : *surprised* Na waah o.. Yvonne have you stayed in lagos before.. Because we where told you are from the village o?

(She insisted,so i told yvonne everything about me,how i dropped school,and how have not spoke with my family for years,I only spoke with my family once and that was when i came to lagos,and that was with my madam phone.
My madam will always give me the excuses that she lost her line,but i wrote the number in a piece of paper when my madam mistakenly drop her. Phone at the sitting room and went inside, I was fast to copy the number out,before she came to take her phone, but the last digit is missing,since then have not called my parent,I told her every thing,she pitied me,and ask me why my madam refused me to speak with my parent,I told her may she was scared to i was gonna report to my dad how she treats me.

*I was still looking at her,,after packaging the iphone inside the shopping bag,she kept quite. she expect me to say something,to break the silent between us. I have to say something.
Me : Yvonne, please don’t take think am rejecting something from you,, I barely know and you just came yesterday.. At least, I have to know you more. So am sorry.
Yvonne : No ,Nick you don’t have to be sorry ok., I get it all, Am fine
(She stood up and left me at the sitting room)
Me : (I called her back) Yvonne… Yvonne… (She never answered me)
(Hmmm,what is even wrong with this one sef? I slept off in the sitting room,until it was 2 : 00pm when some tapped me, I looked up, and it was sara.
Sara : Wake up jaaree,, you can sleep ehhn
Me : (to my self*,me and you who sabi sleep) Oh you are back. Mehn don’t mind me o.. I was tired.
Sara : Whatever, where is yvonne..?
Me : She is inside the room.
(She went straight inside her room,she got there and i can hear whatever they say, they were both laughing loudly.. Sara was telling yvonne about a guy she met in school.. And how the guy invited her for dinner today, she also ask yvonne to join her,, yvonne said nothing,but the way they were both laughing signify yvonne accepted to go out with (she) sara.
I just move straight to my room,I don’t want to listen to that kind of rubbish gist. Sara is known for going to parties especially now that her mum is out. Now she wants to initiate yvonne #Rubbish. I slept off again,when i wake up again it was already 5pm.. *Chai, I screamed.. I was supposed to go and play street football.. I rushed to my bag drag out my jersey with full speed,take my football boot.. Walked straight outside my room and i saw sara and yvonne watching movie in the sitting room.
Me : Hi girls, am off to the pitch o
Sara : Ok.. But in case you did not meet us at home when you’re back,we’re going out to see a friend.
Me : *Friend indeed* No wohala, bye guys.
*sara replied but yvonne ignored,who cares?*
(I rushed out of the exit door, I got to the gate and saw tunde playing card with his friend but i was in a hurry.
Tunde : Haaaa Nick,, come join us make i finish unah
Me : (still running out) I no get your time o
(When i got there,I met my street friends,we formed our group,and we played till it was 7pm,I took bike home because am sure the two girl are out already.. I got home, i saw tunde fetching water.
Me : Haaaa,babatunde, how far nau?
Tunde : I dey o,but were your wives dem go this evening,if you see as dem dress eeh.. Where dem even talk say dem dey go?
Me : dem tell me say dem wan go see friends,but na lie o.. Na one guy wey sara jam dem go see sha
Tunde : Hmmm.. Na there matter sha.
Me : Ok o.. Make i go freshen up
(I left tunde.. I walked inside to take my bath,and was expecting sara and yvonne should be back before 9pm. After bathing,I cooked rice and stew. Served tunde,then clean the kitchen and ate mine.. I was still thinking of what’s gotten over yvonne,its it because i refused collecting her phone ehh? (Hissed)
It’s 10pm already,I waited for the two girls to come back but they never showed up,(this time,I got worried) where the hell did this girl went to all in the name of meeting a friend? I never got the answer to that. I watched movie till it was 11:30pm.
(now this girls are getting on my nerves) this time i was gonna shout on them if they are truly gonna come back this night, I stayed awake till i heard the sound of the gate,I think it should be them this time,they drove in and i checked the time and it was exactly 12am.
I was provoked,they packed the car and came out of it,I waited till they got inside the house.
Me : *Angry* where the hell are you girls coming from?
Sara : it’s that just a question?
Me : *still angry* Answer me or I’ll…..
Yvonne : *shut me up* Or what huh? Listen and listen good Nick,you have no right over us,where we go to or what we do ok. The next time you try asking us this kind of question you will be sorry for your self. Sara let’s go in.
(They both walked inside there room)
I stood there not uttering any words with my mouth wide open.. I keep on imagining,yvonne for that matter. I was silent till i managed to lock the sitting room door and went to bed straight.
This time my day went bad.. Omg!! What is all this?

Over that week, it was something else.. Yvonne and sara was always together,they barely talk to me,they made it hell for, is either they go out and come back home late,it was their daily routine.
I have to stay cool and behave myself, this time it was always me and tunde,we were always together than before. I completely forgot about sara and yvonne,the worst of it,sara would bring a guy home,sometimes they sleep over the night,until one day i decide to leave the house for good.
I have my dreams with me, one morning i intend to let tunde know what i was planning,I met tunde outside doing exercise.

Me : bros tunde.. I gree make we rent house togethe,but this bus own no go work o
Tunde : money dey am o,we go fit save from there o,but if u no gree.. No wohala.
Me : *i think of it for a while* tunde u dey sure say this thing go work,because i no wan go enter gbese o.
Tunde : e go make sense,make we just try am first.
Me : Ok o,but how much we wan take rent the house?
Tunde : we go rent a room self contain for iyana – ipaja side for 200k or 250k
Me : *looking at tunde* Where you wan get that kind money from?
Tunde : No worry your spirit my guy,I go surprise you
Me : Alright, if you say so.
(Tunde and I both agreed to rent the house)
the next day, tunde left the house,he went to the bank to get the money he promised. While i watched over the gate,within one hour he was back,he showed me 150k,I counted it and it was a wow to me.
Tunde and I was smiling at each other,he told me he borrowed 50k from his brother,but the 100k was for him,I went to get mine.. I gave him 85k, I handed all the money over to him, I told him to look for the house in one week,which he promised me to do so.. tunde left in search of the house,but through out that week tunde never returned.
Hope it’s not what am thinking?? I waited till the upper day he never showed up i was now week and was asking my self questions.
* Is tunde ok?
*have he been attacked my arm robbers
*or may he’s run away with my money
*i trusted tunde o
* Why will he choose to treat me like this?
Oh God help me

Me : (stood up from my bed) I’m not with your money,go and look for it or have ask the guys that slept over here yesterday?
As i was about stepping one foot out,yvonne dragged my hand to my greatest surprise she slapped me and told me “WE SHALL SEE”

And she told me she insert sim card inside the phone,she also gave 30k,I was wondering were this girl got all this money from,but I never care to ask.. I on the phone and thank her.. She promised to give me a call,she walked back to the gate and wave to me. I moved and was thinking were to start from..

Tunde laughed as he drives,I was cool once again, I am out of my madam house.

She never act as if she loves me tho,I never saw that coming I swear.
