THE FAMILY DINNER

BONUS 2

Aunty carol 💞
Alosco's POV

All my life, I've been through the strangest things but this had to top all of them. People who are tied to dinning chairs that has an eternity of secrets just waiting to explode. My stomach grumbled. I want to go home not stay here and watch a soap opera. I want my own share of this money. I want to sleep! I am frustrated to the core and this family seemed to take my time. I must admit, if this got to the press, its a million dollar story.

I stared at Johnny who watched them intensely and held them in his eyes. His cold dark eyes. Ever since we were young, it felt like there was this big rock on his shoulder. Mama died when we were really young and our excuse for a father? Like i said, a silly excuse.

I looked back at the loot. A grin spread across my face. This is the biggest loot we've ever stolen. The compound people will be so happy. Sometimes i wonder why is it that no matter how much we steal, we are still in the same condition. This wasn't life.

I watched this family again and i started to get uncomfortable with Johnny's drifting mind.

"Look at them" i nudged him. He watched them also. It almost looked like we were watching the sunset but in the scenario, the blazing fire and web of lies.
I was still lost in my thoughts when the aunty in green spoke "i have...."

Burst my head!

HIV?

AIDS?

Maybe diabetes..

" i have..cancer" she says. The family seemed broken by it even the old steel lady was sobbing. The aunty must have been good for people to love her this much and that was when my conscience nudged me..

If i die today, would anyone even show up foe my funeral? Would i be remembered for good. I looked at my hands. Mama may never forgive me..us for this. Ill talk to Johnny when we get home.

And I'm going to make things right. Once we go home and share this money, i would use it to run away to somewhere maybe passed the border with the love of my life. I sigh. Her scent fills my nostrils and i begin to feel homesick . I WANT TO GO HOME!

I missed her touch. Her face..her whole body!. She was the only reason i did this. She is an official lady thus should be given all the fine things this world has to offer and I Alosco is very confident of providing it. When i have gotten enough money, i would marry her. I know if mama was alive, she would like her. I can still remember our conversation before we left this morning.
  " this is our biggest loot ever!" I tell her
She sighs " please be careful o. I don't want you getting into trouble besides.." She touches her belly "i don't him or her to grow without a father" i laugh
" Don't worry my dear, i would come back with enough money to carry us away from this cursed place." I tell her and plant a kiss on her forehead.
She smiles and hugs me discreetly. "Be safe my love."

I smile and remove her hands and then kiss her quickly. "I will...my Maryanne.."

Then the black american boy that came with the fine shenkes..blurted out " boy..your family's messed up!"

I nudge Johnny once more when i see that he is not following "obob this boy don enter.."

I see him smirk. I smirk too. Oya...FIGHT!!
