Guys please before I begin this chapter, I am sorry for delaying it. Thank you。⁠◕⁠‿⁠◕⁠。

I entered my room, totally refreshed after having a bath. My room was big. I liked candles so a lot of them were lit at the farthest side of the dim room. I liked dim places. It makes you feel... secretive. I really don't have a favorite color but I prefer black and red and so, mummy and daddy made the blankets red with black decorations on them and made the bed sheets black. Some of the pillows were red and black. My table was located in Infront of the medium-sized window with a bookshelf that contained lots of story books, besides the table. Oh, and my room was located at the topmost of the house almost under the roof. My wall was painted wooden brown which I loved. I had a full mirror by my wardrobe.

I ran my hands through my long dark hair in Infront of the mirror with my towel wrapped around me. People usually told me that my hair is long but I didn't see it as that long. I bet they had not seen my older sister's own. Haha!
I walked to the wardrobe to pick up my clothes. I scanned through and picked the normal night pajamas and their matching top. I designed this night to my taste last week. Ellashofort. Written boldly on the top and as a decoration on the down. Nice, right?

Anyways, I descended the staircase and a pleasing aroma hit my nose.

Ohhhh, Jollof rice! I quickly ran downstairs passing my sister, Samuella's room was on the second floor. I felt someone running with me and I turned my head to see the person and oh yes, if it was not Daniella, my younger sister, then who else.
"Picking up scents huh?" I laughed
"Yep. Kind of. I'm going downstairs. See you at the table" she waved like she was waving goodbye to college. I just rolled my eyes and slowed down.
"Aunties, is the food ready?" I asked as I peeped in my head through both aunties' shoulders.
"No, now go and stop worrying us," Hannah said from the corner of the kitchen and I pouted at them.

"Let me help you"

"No, bye-bye, "Hannah said as she pushed me outside the enormous kitchen. Hannah was around my age and she attended a government school but we were really good friends. She was the daughter of one of the Aunties.
"Fine. I'll go"I raised my hands in surrender. I walked out of the kitchen catching Auntie's words
"Ella, don't mind Hannah, it will be ready soon. We just want to heat something."I nodded even though I knew they couldn't see me.
I turned around and walked into the living room, seeing Daniella there busy watching a video.
I couldn't just sit down here and wait. I had to do something......something to keep me up...
An idea struck me
John!
My face brightened and I ran upstairs to the third floor, where my room was located. When I reached my room, I took the things needed and exited my room.  I took fake cockroaches with me....listen...I said Fake Cockroaches.
He always left his door open so when I reached his room, I peeked. He was busy having fun on his ps5 daddy bought him. Maybe this prank of mine, wouldn't be that bad.
