"Sleepyhead, you better get up and get ready before three, we're going out"  she said
"Really, we're are we going" I asked
"You have to get ready and see for your self" she winked at me before living the room
"Wow" I exclaimed seeing the room, I was so exhausted to notice the room yesterday, the only thing I notice was the circle shaped bed because I'm so sleepy last night

The room is two times bigger than my room in Abuja, it contain a cream medium sized circle bed, a full length mirror "hello mirror selfie" I said giggling, "wow" I exclaimed after seeing the mini study, it has mini bookshelf containing many books both novel and scientific books and a mini coffee table, everything is in cream and peach, there two doors in the room, the first one is a toilet, a very big toilet, with a jacuzzi tub and shower by the other side, while the other door is the en-suite, I quickly take a bath and dress in a simple Ankara kaftan gown, I tie my head headgear and went to out to explore the house

It a flat duplex with four wings, the main sitting room contain the doors that will lead you to each wings, the dinning room the the big spacious kitchen, there's another door that will lead you to Dad's meeting room and dining hall, the first wing is Dad's, it has a mini sitting room, two rooms with a library, then Ammie's wing it also same as Dad's, then our wing, there're three rooms, a mini sitting room, library,  Ya Amman's wing is also the same with ours, there's also a door that will link you to the garden, "wow!" I exclaimed seeing the garden, it has many flowers, herbs and fruits, a fountain and a swing, there're many birds in the garden, it also has a flower swing, this gonna be my new favorite place, I thought grinning feeling the sweet mix smell of flower and herb, the atmosphere is so calming, I sit there for Allah's now how long, I wish to spent the whole day here but my stomach is not ready to let me to so because I'm very hungry, to say very is an understatement. The exterior of the house is the real definition of a modern Egyptian house, I left the garden keeping a short not to come back. 

I head over to the dinning room and have my brunch, I walked to Dad's room, I entire the sitting room and everything there is white, he's there reading newspaper as usual, who still read newspaper in this century is thought smile

"Good morning Dad" I said hugging him

"Morning Momma, how are you" He asked pecking my cheeks

"I'm fine Dad, but I'm still stress due to the long journey" I said stretching my body dramatically
