   "So we're going back to Nigeria?" I asked mom. She just told me that her prince charming can't make it to California.

     So my dearest mother came to wake me at 5:25 am just cause she wants us to go back to Nigeria beacause of her prince charming?

    Best part is that her prince charming already arranged his private jet to pick us. I mean, we're going home in a fucking private jet!!

  Buh it's worth it anyway. He can't just make mom ruin my beauty sleep for something worthless.

  "Yeah" mom replied. I wanted to ask her why she wanted us to go back to Nigeria here. Tomorrow is new year. Can't she just wait till three days later?

But I have to pack. Besides I'm still excited about the private jet. The only time I've entered one is when I was still a child.

      Around seven years and trust me, it wasn't a good experience. It was when I was still battling with cancer and they had to rush me put of the country for treatment. Worst part is, I was unconscious during the whole trip!!

   And lord knows, if not for this private jet, I swear to God who made me, I won't get up from this bed and mom won't be leaving for Nigeria until after new year.

   And I'm also excited because I get to see Gabe and Tara! And my parents too!! Wait.....forget I said that. Just forget it.

   I lazily dragged my traveling bag behind me as I walked..lemme rephrase that, strolled to the living room.

  I slumped on the chair. Nathan and Mom weren't here. Only Fayth was so I carried her and if she isn't still a baby, I'd swear I saw her roll her eyes and frown.

  I pouted. "What now? Kim is mad at me?"

   Normally, she just giggle, laugh or play with my fingers.

  But she just stared at me, on of her hands were behind her. I patted her back, wondering if she was sick because she didn't even babble in her baby language. She just kept staring.

   And that was when I felt it. "Aaaahhhh...ouch ouch ouch!" I screamed and immediately, mom and Nathan rushed out in alarm.

   I felt my eyes water. The little daredevil called my sister just punched me....and is still pinching me.

   "God! Kimani stop!" I snapped but the girl was just laughing.

  "Wait, you were screaming just because she pinched you?" Nathan hissed. "God! Dazzline! Can you not be a drama queen for once?!"

   "Hey! Watch how you talk to me! I'm still older than you!" I snapped.

  "With what? Five months?" He snickered.

   "You fit buy that five months for grocery store?!" I sassed in pidgin. Although, it sounded funny with my american accent but..I still said it duh!

  "What does that mean?!" He and mom asked.

  "You can search it on google. Better still, you can use phoenix" I replied and walked out of the house with Fayth and my traveling box.

                ****************

  "So mom, why is it that you decided to go back to Nigeria just like that? Couldn't it wait till after new year?" I asked.

   "I would have loved to stay...but...I'm gonna let you in on a secret" she said, leaning closer to me.

  "Go on" I urged.

"Well...."

"Just say it already!" I whined. What? Don't blame me. I'm eager to know the reason behind all this.

   "Roman's parents wants to meet me!" She squealed.

My eyes widened in shock. "Even if they know you have three kids?" I asked.

  "Yeah. They want to meet me" mom was clearly excited and I began to pray silently that the meeting has a good outcome.

                  ******************

* Omotara *

6:30 am.

"Motara!!!"

I groaned immediately i heard grandma's voice.

Can't someone have a peaceful sleep again?

"Omotara Anike Amani Adebayo!! Of I come and meet you in that room ehn!!!" She yelled.

    "God! This woman sef!" I grumbled as I sluggishly dragged my feet down the stairs to the living room.

   "Good morning ma, Good morning Mom, Dad" I kneeled on the floor, a gesture considered as great respect for elders in Nigeria.

   "Morning" they all said. They were dressed like they were on their way to a party or something.

   "We are going to the hospital. We want the doctor to run a test on your mom" that was dad.

So it's hospital that they're going to that they now dress like this?

     Imagine!  Mom was wearing lace gown. Dad was wearing that men's wear....what do they call it sef.....ehn ehn, yes, dad was wearing Senator.

What happened to their usual jeans and top?

And grandma, I shook my head. Well grandma was wearing iro and buba. As if it is more than this hospital that they're going to sef.

  "Why? Is she sick?" I asked.

"Must she be sick before she goes to an hospital?" Grandma asked. "Shey oju e ti fo ni abi o ti gba gbe pe iya e loyun?" (Are you blind or have you forgotten that your mother is pregnant?)

      "Okay. Bye" I replied while yawning.

   "Odabo. Ko tilekun oo" Grandma said again in Yoruba which meant bye, lock the door oo.

    What's with grandma and Yoruba today sef?

  What's with you and sef today? My subconsciousness mocked and I just rolled my eyes as I went locked the door and went back to bed.

   An hour later

7:45 am.

Ding dong! Ding dong!

  Lord! The freaking door bell! Who is it again?

  If it's Zephan nko?

I felt happy just at that thought and ran out of my room to the living room.

As soon as I opened the door, there stood my sister, with a huge grin plastered on her face.

I'm supposed to be angry at her for not giving me a call all this days but...

'Fuck it!'

I engolfed her into a bear hug.

Finally! Someone who could make me feel better.

             Pheeeeeewwwwww!!!

How are y'all today ehn? Me too, am fine.

  I don't know what to say....scratch that..I already know what to say!
