I woke up and it was almost noon.Can't believe i slept that long.

Austin has already gone to the near by market to buy foodstuffs.
I used it as an opportunity to walk around the house and get use to it.

I walked into Austin's room,even though other parts of the house looks clean, Austin's room should not be counted as one of them,It is a mess, no lie!.clothes scattered everywhere both clean and dirty, shoes on the bed like that's were its supposed to be and something else caught my eye, a wrap like a sweet paper but its not,its a condom!so many of them scattered on the floor, and then Austin walked in.

Why now! I didn't even hear the main door open!

"What are you doing in my room? Didn't you read the sign at the doorpost or Are you sleepwalking"? Austin said not in an angry tone, but in a rather Insulting way and a weird but funny look on his face.

"Erm...Erm....i..was.."The words couldn't just come out,like its stuck in my throat."What is are condom warps doing in your room"? I asked him,better way to avoid his.

"Its non of your business, ok, and how do you know a condom wrap, don't tell me you are already having...."

"Oh please don't even go there, I cut him short.."I can read and I have eyes",.I say leaving the room, and slamming the door.

"Seriously, my sister is now grown up".he said loud enough so that i can hear.

After that, I went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast or rather lunch Since it was almost afternoon.

I haven't had any proper food since i came, making me to remember my Mom, she doesn't joke with cooking no matter how busy she is,happy to say my mom is one of those women who take food to work.

We ate our food quietly, I was going through my Instagram page while Austin was chatting with someone on Whatsapp,I could tell from the keypad sounds.

"Do u want to go out?maybe stroll around the neighborhood"? Austin asked me.

"Yeah,of course",i said.

"Ok,hurry up, we need to go and come back early in order to prepare for dad's dinner, hope you didn't forget that"?.Austin said walking to the kitchen to keep his plate.

"No,I didn't".I replied

*Yes,you did.the tiny voice in my head said*

We left for the strolling what Austin called it.We went to his school(University of Benin),One of Nigeria's prestigious university.

A school that have produce intellectuals and leaders of this Country.Hope to study there one day.

We went to the Oba Palace.There is always something so interesting about the Benin people. They have been able to preserve their culture and traditions for a long time even with current modern lifestyle,it cannot corrupt​ the Benin culture.

Next,Austin showed me some fun places where he do hang out with his friends.
