Oh lord I bless your name,am quite happy we didn't wait one more day before before that blood sucking witch killed me, atleast my parents were smart enough to book our flight before today.but I don't get it, what wrong did I do to kate, I thought we were supposed to be sisters? Well that's it for me, am never going back to Nigeria again.America is where I belong.
I quickly fastened by sit belt on the plane, relaxed my back to my chair and flipped through the pages of the novel untill tomorrow.
Mum and dad couldn't help but chit chat.well I don't want to interupt the couple so I'd better focus on this book.

~~~~~~
Woaw, she's gone.what took them so long.you must probably think am evil and all but I've got news for you.I lost my one and only sister, my lovely sibling, the only one I had due to stupidity, and yes.my fault.well the newsplash is no one can take her place, no one will ever replace her, I can't have anyother sister.so noe you know why I just couldn't accomodate kim.too heat up things, she even knows Jake.that alone, sealed the hatred for ever.
I quietly tucked in my self underneath my blanket properly and closed my pretty eye balls, so I could get some sleep.

~~~~~~

"Tori? What are you doing here?" Surprised to find Tori infront of my gate, how did she know I'd be coming in today?.

"Helo miss kim, I figured"I knew that couldn't be all, she was definately hiding something

"Hi kim's parent, am Tori her very close buddy and your welcome back to America"
My parents giggled.

"Hello Tori, nice to meet you, but could you please step away from the gate for few seconds, were trying to get inside the compound"

"Oh that's fine, I'll do just that."She hurtiedly stepped aside , afterwards we ducked in our heads into the car and dad drove in."

I still couldn't believe Tori was here, how did she even know my house?I haven't brought her here before, I didn't tell her I was coming home.how did she know?no wait!, please don't tell me she's a witch.we all came down from the car and dad removed our luggages from the boot.

"Tori do you care for coffee?" Mum asked and Tori nodded happily.
Tori walked towards me and squeezed me in a bear hug before we walked into the house.

"You haven't told me what you are and how you did it"
Tori sat on the sofa wearing a smart smirk on her face.I joined her on the sofa.

"Common Tori, open up"she glanced at the television and produced a loud laugh from her mouth.

"Oh my God you need to see the look on your face, I'd do anything to see that look everyday.Hahaahahahaahahahahahahahaha"
I stood up from the sofa immediately and Tori held my right hand

" alright alright Kim I'll tell you but it's gonna ruin the fun"
I instantly retained my position on the sofa

"You mean ruin your fun, cause from all indications your the only one having fun around here"
She flipped her blonde hair, sat upright and stared at me, she was about speaking before mum cut her by serving us both some hot coffee and cookies.

"Why, thank you ma'm I've heard a lot about your hand maid snacks and pastries, kim never stops braging about it,am looking forward to visiting your testaurant"

"How sweet of you Tori, I'd be delighted to have you there, eat up girls."
Mum runs back to the kitchen.

"Your mum's nice, I like her"
Tori takes a bite of a cookie and her smile expands so.

"Sweet, she's good kim.if this what you eat everyday then I'd better start thinking of moving into your house"

"Hahahaha,am sorry Tori the rooms are all occupied, there's no vacancy, so delete your thoughts."Tori slaugged with her mouth full.

"Now tell me how you found out I was back"she picked up her cup of coffee and sipped it all out then she cleared her throat.

"Kim, can I please not tell you? Cause your gonna freak"

"In that case I can't wait, spill it"

"I put a tracker in your phone"
I just couldn't believe Tori just said that, I mean why?, how? When?.what a stupid thing to do.

" what?? Why would you do a thing like that?"

"Common buddy, is there anything bad in knowing where my close friend could be at anytime?"
She made it seem casual, but it wasn't, it's crazy, all this white people.sometimes I just can't understand them.

"Why would you wan to stalk me Tori when you seee everyday? And if tracking me was a good thing why didn't you make provisions for me to track you too?"

"Cause it wasn't my idea"
good God, did she just say it wasn't her idea.?

"Then who's was it?"
She smiled like a thief who's been caught in the act.

"It was uhmmmm.it was a, uhmm,I think it was"

"Would you just spill it out already"she bowed her head towards the plate of cookies on her lap and sighed.

"Jake, it was his idea"I properly assimilated her words.what does he want?what is his problem?

"Tori, what's going on? Why would Jake want to stalk me?"

"Maybe cause am a friend of the family"
A voice replied.I couldn't believe my eyes,
Hey folks turned out mum was taking Jake into the house.

"Your welcome Jake, Kim am sure you've met him before,this is the son of my very close friend, Tori?"

"Yes ma'm"

"Your cousin right?"Tori nods.

"Have fun you all, I've got laundry to do" and mum walks away.he walked towards us with a devilish smirk on his face.

"Hey Tori, hello kim,I missed you, am glad you returned safely from Nigeria.
He fell into the sofa and stole a cookie from my plate.

"Jake you shouldn't have come, atleast not now."Tori muttered.

"Why? When's the right time to welcome one who just arrived the states, atleast I was Fair, I let you get 45min,common Tori learn to share your friends"
I stood up from my sit.

"Uhmm Tori, did I forget to tell you that I am very weak and tired,and I really need to take a shower, excuse me."
Before I could walk out of the living room a familiar annoying voice halted me.

"Wait! Kim am really sorry for showing up at your place unannounced and taking your cookie.am also sorry about the tracker, I promise I'll deactivate it,I only came to drop this with you" he put the perfectly wrapped box on the sofa and walked away.
I shot the door behind him and went right back to the sofa.

"Kim, am sorry"I smiled at Tori and picked up the box Jake left.

"I wander what's in it"

"Probably what you'd like"I thre Tori a nasty glance and laughed afterwards.
After opening the box I found chocolate and chocolate cookies lots of it, the best of it's kind.

"I knew you'd like them" said Tori,Immediately I unwrapped them and started devouring them.

"Love it, taste so good, come see for yourself Tori"she tan towards me and collected the box before racing to the kitchen.

"Please Tori, please return my property"I chased after her.
