Tangled

💓 Chapter Eleven 💓

  The image of the shoe above is the shoe Sameer bought.           

         

        Alfred was sorting out his outfit for another of the numerous parties his mom was forcing him to attend but this one was kind of an important family function.
His mother liked parties and this glamorous life. It was her husband,chief Baptiste that made her like that. What do you expect from a man with a chieftaincy title in the Yoruba land and the speaker of the house of representative for Lagos.

His clothes were ready but he was still contemplating on what shoe to wear when his younger brother dashed into his room, panting.

"Who's that?"he asked, raising two shoes up to the clothes he wanted to wear.

"Nathan.... mummy.... is....calling... you" the young boy of about eight  years said in between pants. He was already dressed up.

"I'm coming" Alfred answered as he wore the blue green half shoe on his left hand. It fits the emerald green outfit perfectly.
He grabbed his glasses and put it in,he put on his cap and put his phone on his pocket.
He exited his room and left for his mom's room.

"Iyawo Chief" he teased as he opened the door of his mom's room. She was partially dressed. She had already worn her blouse and her make up was done but her make up artist was still trying her gele for her.

"Akobi chief. Shey Bata ati purse yen ma ba aso mi mo?" His mom asked, pointing at the burgundy shoe and purse on her bed.

"I don't want to use gold,it is already too common" she added.
Alfred looked at her gele,it was a darker shade of the dress and had thin stripes of burgundy or wine,one of the two.

"Yes,it goes well. You're looking sweet" Alfred commented, blowing his mom a kiss and she smiled.

"I'm looking so sweet abi, hope your daddy will like my look?"she stood up from her dressing chair as the makeup artist finished what she was doing.

A shill cry was heard from downstairs. It was Mitchelle's voice.

"Alfred jo ba mi wo omo yen"his mother said as he walked out of the room almost running at the sound of his baby sister crying.

"What happened?"he queried as he carried the crying little girl from the couch. The maid was already running to see what happened. When she saw Alfred was pacifying the little girl,she turned away.

"Nathan hit me"she said sobbing more loudly.

"It's okay..stop crying" Alfred consoled. He chastised Nathan as he cleaned his baby sister nose with the pocket tissue he saw on the couch.

"You're too naughty and rough and playful. Why did you hit her exactly?"

"I just wanted to check if they've started teen titans..."

"Can't you go upstairs and check that in your room?.... Just behave yourself from now on" with that,Alfred put it in a kid show and left.

"Where's Williams?"Alfred asked, stopping midway at the stairs.

"He's in his room" Nathan mouthed.

Alfred then continued to race the stairs till he got to his mom's room.

"It was Nathan that hit mitchelle" Alfred said as he closed the door behind him.

"Mó mà nà omò yen,ára è á to balè" his mom said as she figured the best way to tie her wrapper.

"Your daddy said he'll meet us there. Samson will drive us there.Tell your brothers to go to the car now,I'll be with you guys in two minutes." She added, checking herself in the mirror.
