"All passengers bording first class united states,please fill in now. All passengers bording first class united states,please fill in now." That was our que to leave.

Simultaniously we rose from the bench where we watched people pass by, and made fun of them during intervals. That synthetic smell of sernitizers bleared the pleace but not too harshly, and random voices mumbling in our ears.

I turned to look at the two of them and instead of goshing out tears, i smiled. "You guys sure you'd rather come with me than attend school?"

And I hear Adam manicaly laugh "Ask Esther that one." He took my logage and helped dad with his and passed me, towards our plane. I couldn't forget him kissing me at the club last night, and wanted desperately to talk about it. But an opportunity never came.

I looked back at Esther.

"You want me to stay in that stupid school with teachers?" She laughed  and braided her fingers in her small mini box with little clothes in it, while I threw Adams packed back pack behind my back and we followed Dad and Adam behind.

They had agreed to come with me few hours before now, and to them, it wasnt a though choice, if I was in their shoes I'd definitly do thesame for them and all things bring vice vaser.

Considering its the first time I was going to be in the U.S, aside the fact that I was already a citizen by birth, it would be wise to help me settle down before fully starting my life there, they thought that dad would be very busy since he just got newly transfered there he wouldnt have time for me.

Not like I'm surprised anyway. They knew allot of people in the U.S, reason being that both their parents had one or two houses there, so it was a good reason to their parents to let them come with me.

Honestly I saw it as a very big blessing from God just to let them come with me. If they hadn't suggested it I don't know what the heck I would have gotten into when I got there.

They both knew I had trouble fitting in, or even making friends so they knew how big of a help I needed. And....I just want them around, atleast until I get to say goodbye finally. I have to makeup for last night.

When we had our seats with both of them beside me, I heaved a sigh and looked through the glass.

This was the last time I would see Nigerians, the once in a time heat, cold, or just a mixture of both that was annoying.

"Don't be too moody na." Esther broke my stare. "You can come back anytime. Besides, we're here." She cheered and I smiled a little, shifting into my seat.

"Otherwaise she would have cried like a baby." Adam laughed from beyond Esther and I immediately shoot him a frank stare in shock and objection to his words.

He only puffed out more laughes and plugged in his head phone to the mini Tv before him. We flew first class.  "What? You know its true." He added and held them on.

"Can't argue, but still. You, know you can't live without me." I Sterned and narrowed my eyes.

"All things being vice vaser." His hands layed behind his head and he closed his eyes, just immediately, the annousment that meant our flight would take off soon came in.

"Dont mind him joor. Lets take pictures. Its been long I updated my whatsapp status." She wiggled her shoulders and brought out her phone holding it up in the air and I saw our faces on her phone screen, before they came to a hult.
