STORY OF MY LIFE

Fun!!!!

The kids grew very fast and quick, when they were five years, she got pregnant again and gave birth to a baby girl. Ronke wondered how lucky she was.

"Emmanuel". Ronke called her son who was now 10 years.
"Emmanuel". She called again raising her voice a little bit.
"Emmanuel!!!". She shouted this time around.
"Yes mum!!". Emmanuel shouted running over.
"Where were you?". She asked him.
"I was in my room, I was doing my assignment". He replied panting a little.
"Okay, your lesson teacher called, she said she can't make it today because her mum is in the hospital". Ronke told her son.
"Aw, mum, I wanted her to explain a sum I couldn't get". Emmanuel complained obviously displeased.
"My dear, I told you, I am also here, if you have any problem bring it to me atleast I went to secondary school too". She told her son.

"You are not always around". Emmanuel defended.
"Well, because of the nature of job, I have to be home late, but now I'm around". Ronke said.
"But mum,". Emmanuel started.
"Yes dear".

"I just realised how thin Josephine is".

"Thin?, your sister?, why do you say so?,". Ronke asked.

"I think your job is affecting her, why don't you just quit and open a mall or something like Aunty Dupe".

"Well...". Ronke said laughing, " I will think about about it".

"Mummy". Emmanuella cried excitedly rushing to her.
"Yes love".
"Aunty Dupe is coming, She just drove in". Emmuanella told her mum.
"How come we didn't hear the car coming in". Ronke said going over to the window to confirm.

"Can I open the door". Ella asked her mum when the door bell was rung.
"Yes, you can".

"Favour!!!". Ella shrieked rushing to hug Dupe's daughter.
"Good afternoon aunty". The twins greeted Dupe.
"My dears, how are you?". Dupe replied back, handing them what she bought.
"Where is Jo?". Dupe asked.

"She is sleeping". Emmanuel replied.
"Ehn!, who is sleeping". Josephine said coming from her room.
"Josephine". Moses greeted going to meet her.
"Mummy". Emmanuella called her mum.

"Have you guys told Auntie thank you". Ronke asked her children.
"Thank you auntie". They said in unision.

"Ah!, Ah!, they are my children". Dupe said smiling.

"Mummy". Ella called her mum.

"Yes Danielle".

"Can I take Favour to my room, I want to show her the things daddy bought back for me when he travelled". Ella replied.

"Yes".

"Titi" . Ronke called the maid.
"Yes, that reminds me, Mabo hasn't returned". Dupe asked.
"Don't you know she is married, Shd comes here once in a while". Ronke replied smiling as she remembered Mabo, that sweet girl, Mabo was now a graduate of Unilag, she studied mass communication, She was married and living in Abeokuta with her husband, She was blessed with a child.

"So what is Titi doing now?". Dupe asked when Titi had come to collect her madam's orders and left to do it.

"Well, She is done with Secondary school, we help her get admission into any university, then we get another househelp, She will come during their hols until she is married, you know she is still our maid". Ronke replied.

"You and your husband are nice and kind people". Dupe said.
"Looking at you, you don't need any house help, you cook yourself, your kids do their house chores, what else again, you have dish washer and washing machine".

"Will, I train other people children and leave my children untrained?, It is not possible...and moreso God has given us the money, why can't we help the less unfortunate". Ronke replied smiling.
