MATCH DAY👕⚽️

                                       YODA
I gripped the arms of the couch I was sitting in,my heart beating at a fast pace ,the atmosphere was tense and the whole place was quite,my toes suddenly becoming a sight to behold

GOAL......
I covered my eyes laying flat on the cold floor
What ?
My mom peeped into the hall a look of displeasure etched on her sweat coated face,she wiped it and returned to her business not before glaring at my dad who was pretending to be on a call

Immediately my mum turned her back I tried to feign sleep
But the boys beat me to it
When I say boys,add my dad cos....

Mama ?
All four chorused,
Please fulfill your end of the deal
They said it in sync as if it has been rehearsed for days
I didn't move a muscle

As the only girl in the mist of three boys two older brothers and a baby brother
I had loved football since the day I was born as if I already knew I will find my self in a community of boys
It has been a tradition ,anytime your team looses you get to sponsor whatever they choose to eat

I felt myself being lifted up
A faint smile dancing on my lips
I give up , I blurted out
They all broke into fits of laughter
We thought you were  asleep,we were actually sending you to your room you know to have a good sleep ......
Leonard ,my younger brother said and they broke into another fits of laughter

I rolled my eyes and headed towards my room
I know what these dudes are capable of,they would have just placed me in the pool,or beside the WC in the guest washroom,the worst scenario would be me lying beside the main trash can
Our house was spotless clean but who wants to be in these positions after taking their time to shower
No one
I had taken my time to bath and look fresh during the game only for me to loose ,tseeeew

FOOD GALLERY
I stood glued to the floor,food what???
Food gallery was like the most expensive street food
restaurant in town
Roasted plantain and coated groundnut will cost you your left kidney
Okay I 'm exaggerating,but it will cost you a lotta cedis for one not to talk of the four big stomachs chatting in the hall

Food gallery,......they shouted back
I slowly descended the stairs,my back facing them kinda creating a reverse action.

I turned around
My hands clasped together,let's compromise I said with a pleading voice
GOLDEN CHEF, I suggested
Alright....
Did they just agree?
I ascended the stairs quickly,taking two steps at a time
I dashed into my room
I put on a white bodycon sleeveless dress which stopped just beneath my knee
I threw a denim jacket over my dress and slipped my feet into my deep blue crocs
I placed a blue cap with an embroidery inscription

'CHELSEA'
On my head and completed my look with lip gloss and loop earrings .
I grabbed my phone ,loaded my purse with some cash and headed downstairs .

You're done already? Leo asked making the boys turn towards  me.
Before you guys change your mind again,I replied under my breath

Aren't you disappointed in your team ,Terry said eyeing my cap.
they didn't win ,the reason why you are even going out to you know....Terry trailed off ,laughing his ass out ,Leo and Jayden joining in

Perfect example of lead by example

Dad? I called my dad's attention
He turned and my face fell
Dad was laughing too?

Typical
He threw the car remote,I caught it and my eyes widened
Am I supposed to drive too?
No please,they shouted
You're our slave for tonight remember?..Leo stated
Whatever...I answered adjusting my cap
