While standing like a child who's seen a chocolate but can not consume it. I watched mum water each flower on our porch repeatedly.
I felt useless, cause mum and dad never allowed me to do anything at home, they took care of almost every chore in the house.although they've been married for 40 years without an issue but pampering me this way was just too much, especially when I see things I can easily handle but told to stay away from it.
Well I didn't own the house, they did. And they definately called the shots around it.
Well, enough about mum and dad, their both old stories, I just wandered why rich people loved showing off, although the party was a total blast cause mum handled it all, but the party was based on invites only,that's why the restaurant was filled with only rich people."yuck" what a terrible attitude.But am grateful to God almighty for throwing me into the arms of mr and mrs well, they are rich, caring and loving.

while glancing at a blind young boy who's hands were held by an old woman as they crossed the street I accidentaly stepped on someone's feet.
"Oh am really sorry"I uttered, while bending low and sweeping the sand of her feet with my hands.
"It alright kim, hope it's okay to call you kim?"the voice echoed loudly, immediately, I raised up my body so the owner of the voice will be revealed to me.
It was her.
"You?"I asked surprisingly?she put a smile on her face that touched her eyes.
"Yeah, what's the surprise about?or have you forgotten you told me your name?"she asked, and immediately I put on a devilish smile
"Okay, Tori or whatever friends call you, am sorry I was rude to you the other day, am sorry I stepped on your feet and if your on your way to Action ground I'd like to be a company"
the moment I rounded up my friendly speech she laughed out so loud that someone on the opposite lane could hear it.quickly I began to walk very fast,far away from her, I didn't want people to find me standing with a mad girl."jeez" her laughter was so loud that it affected my eardrums, suddenly her silly voice halted me
"Kim, am sorry, please wait. I'd really like your company"
I turned around and threw her a nasty glance, while waiting for her to run up to me.
"Don't ever do that again"
I warned, she smiled at me and nodded her head back and forth.then she put her hand in her bag and brought out a chocolate sweet".
"Hope you like chocolates?"she asked as she waved the chocolates to my face.I snatched them from her hands and ran away from her.
"Uuhhh" she screamed, as she raced after me,finally she caught up with me in front of my mum's restaurant.
Apparently my acting school which happens to be Action Ground was just few blocks away from mum's restaurant.
"Did I ever tell you I race faster than usen bolt?"Tori asked with a huge smile on her face.
"Nahhhh, I don't think so".I removed the chocolate from it's wrap and threw it into my mouth,yeah, the taste was as great as life it self.
"I pray you don't end up at the dentist very soon"
The voice cuts into my moment, it didn't belong to Tori.It was him,I watched him step out of my mum's restaurant. seems like he knew Tori, cause the moment he was totally out of the restaurant Tori rushed to give him a hug
"What are you doing with this trouble shooter little cousin?he asked Tori,what?? they were cousins? Story of my life.
"Wait a min, how do you know kim?"Tori asked with great concern.I plant my hands on my face and leaned my back on the entrance door of the restaurant.
"Oh, that's her name, well nice meeting you again kim"I threw a nasty glance at him and reached for Tori's wrist.
"Lets go Tori, were going to be late."I pulled her away from him, but she halted to give me the "you better start talking look".I gradually let go of her wrist and take in some carbondyoxide then I said
"Tori, am afriad I'll just have to go without you, you can stay here, all you want." In a split second I was on the run to class.
Apparently, I was late for class .but mr Mickey wasn't at school yet.Joy lingered within me but suddenly my joy met it's boundaries.Turned out Tori was not yet in class.but it wasn't my fault.
Would she hate me now?, but I tried.
Tori seemed like a nice and fun person anyway but this world is quite small who ever thought they were cousins??.oh well, things happen.
"Really kim? Really?"Tori's loud question startled me.I watched her walk up to me like she was going to punch me in the face,immediately I raised my hands in defence to protect my face.
"Tori am sorry"she halted instantly and opened her mouth, behold my ear could not withstand the volume of laughter Tori produced, I threw a nasty glance at her and flinged my face towards mr mickey's direction, who just walked into the class room.
"You can stop now, it's class time"she quickly shut her mouth close and took a sit beside me,suddenly her tiny giggling discarded my attention from the class.
"Tori, be quiet"she waved her right hand to my face and said
"Am sorry but you should have seen your face when I first walked into the class, hilarious."
Apparently Tori was laughing at me, really? Was my face that funny?I stood up picked up my bag from my desk and moved into another sit.

Yes, I was home at last in my room, watching television, though today was some fun, cause school wasn't too bad, my second school which happens to be action ground, was awesome, though we rehearsed three plays, two from William Shakespeare and one from disney, and I had just concluded my ticket sales today. I just couldn't wait for the event night to present it self, cause I have a strong feeling it's going to be glorious.
Though Tori turned out to be a crazy fellow but who could blame her? She's got that rich bratt for a cousin.apparently blood is involved so why wouldn't she go gaga.
It's almost a year and now my parents think it's time to meet with their family, though I've met with some of dad's relative but I haven't seen any of mom's relations and cause of that mum suggested that we take the weekend off and Fly down to Nigeria.
Though I really wanted to meet mom's relation but I didn't know we'd have to go down to Nigeria.yeah, it would really be a nice avenue to console my cousin kate, poor thing, I remember the story mum told me, I feel so sad, it's really not fair for a groom to abandon his bride at the altar, I guess she's going to need some encouragement.
oh well, meeting each and everyone of them was the most important thing and mum really wanted to surprise uncle Eric, cause she had called grandpa to inform him about our trip on thursday.
"Yay, Nigeria here I come".
