NOT EDITED.
"So you're telling me your male cousin is your best friend?".
Esther nodded.
"So close that you can sleep in his bed naked, as in both of you can sleep in the same bed naked?".
Esther nodded again.
"Are guys like practicing incest or something, you know, like sweet home Alabama".
Esther rolled her eyes.
"Amaka, just stop".
"Yeah, stop. They've been like that since childhood, right?", Genesis spoke which made Esther nod her head.
"Yeah but still-".
"Amaka, please let me concentrate", Esther sighed.
She was currently trying to calculate the numbers she had written down. She couldn't concentrate as Amaka's loud voice boomed inside her head.
What was her business anyway?, Esther thought to herself.
Working as an auditor wasn't really Esther's thing. She was good with numbers but she didn't like the job.
She just needed to do something to get away from her father.
And him.
Her father had different companies and she wanted a job that wouldn't lead back to her father and that was why she chose to work as an auditor in a firm.
The work would have been bearable if she didn't have lousy colleagues that didn't know how to mind their businesses.
Well, it was bearable today as Gracious wasn't around leaving Amaka to tease Esther around.
Left to Esther, she would ignore but Devina found it amusing to string Amaka and Gracious along sometimes.
"Besides, why are you here?, your dad's like very rich. Seriously, you don't have to do this whole rich kid trying to belong with the average people".
Esther sighed then looked at Amaka then went back to staring at the numbers.
"Because my dad has high expectations of me and this is my way to escape", she thought out loud, whispering to herself.
"What?", Amaka asked.
"Nothing", Esther gave her a fake smile.
When Esther got home later, she found her baby sister at the door smiling toothily at her.
She scooped her up in her arms and kissed her.
"Hi Cookie".
Cookie giggled and hugged Esther's neck.
"Where's mommy?"."Mommy", Cookie repeated, still smiling.
Sometimes, when Esther goes out with cookie, people usually think she was cookie's mom.
Just then, Ky'mon Bells came downstairs.
Ky'mon frowned at his oldest daughter who rolled her eyes.
"Hi daddy", Esther greeted nonchalantly.
"You still working at that dumb shit?, i told you to come work for me and your brother", Ky'mon almost glared at her.
"And i told you no".
"You could be your own boss, the fuck you answering to someone for?. Do they know who you are?".
"Yes".
"And they ain't send you away yet", Ky'mon asked in doubt.
"Cos i told them you won't interfere".
