I'm so excited! I'm turning 16 in two days. I was gonna have a party but my mom said that we had to visit family. We're  nigerian so family is everything but I'm still having a small get together with my friends the next day.

"Ohmagosh Ayo you're finally turning sixteen" says kéké while laughing

"Haha very funny" I say while rolling my eyes. You see because of the fact that I'm a november baby almost every one in my grade is 16 except me and I hate that so they always tease me about it.

"Oh stop teasing her. But seriously my baby is turning 16 iiiiiiiiiiiiiii " Dami said. You see she is 17 so she is the oldest, and calles me baby, she is like my big sister always protective of me and all.

"It's not that big of a deal anyway but I wish I could have seen you guys "

"No prob we could just video call you"

"Yeah and any way we comming over tomorrow so we could see your cute little sister "
The first time they saw my sister Yusrah they fell under her spell of cuteness.

  "And to see bro Hafiz" my cousin has been living with my mom and I since I was five, cause his college was closer to our house than his, so my mom told him to live with us and now he is the tourist manager in a hotel.

"Yeah that usher look alike" he has always usher and sometimes people ask him for an autograph but he always says
'I'm not usher but I can still give you an autograph' º\/( ' _ ' )\/º he is like a big brother to me, he is very protective and if he knew boys were asking me out he would freak out and same for the girls cause he says that they are sisters to him which is true cause we've known each other since I was 10 so yeah.

"Anyway who is up for eating at fresh borito tonight?"

"Yeah after class?"

"Sure."

.........................

After classes I directly went to wait for the girls in front of Dami's car cause she always drives us when we go out. I had already told Hafiz that we were eating out so he wouldn't come pick me up.
I dont know why but I feel like I'm being watched, so I look around me just to make sure that no one was and I saw a big guy with a beard already looking my way he was really muscular but it didn't look like too much, his melanin skin was  glowing, his beard was really full but well groomed, his hazel eyes were holding an intese look as he kept looking at me I felt cheeks heat up and at that time I was thankful for my really dark skin I look away and see the girls comming over to me.

"Sorry for the wait, I had to collect some work from my french teacher."

"No problem let's just go "I say while opening the back door and getting in, they get in and Dami starts the car. As we leave, I see him looking at me and I think I see a smile come on his lips but he turns around too fast for me to read his expression.

.............................

"We're here"Dami says in a sing song voice

"At last I'm sooo hungry" kéké says. We go in and make our command before siting at thier swing chairs.
I cant stop thinking about that man I want to know who he was why he was looking at me

"Ayo ayo aaaayoooo"

"Hun...what"

"I've been calling you for five minutes now whats wrong?"

"Oh nothing just thinking"

"Aah oki"

"Hey some guy Dm'd me on instagram and asked for my number.......again."Dami said

"I just muted him"the waiter come over to the table and served  our food he kept on looking at me, he looked a bit red.

"D....dd...ddo you nnn...nnee..d any thing else? "He asked while looking at me I smiled at him and said

"No its ok thanks" he became even redder

"Ok ill be right back with your drinks" he says while looking away nervously

"He is soo into you" kéké said while squealing

"Stop it he is just akward that's all"

"Yeah right keep telling your self that "

"You are eye catching so im not surprised"Dami said.
I just rolled my eyes at them.
When he came he was looking a bit more confident and he was smiling

"Here you go." he says then he hands me a paper and does the phone sign while mouthing 'call me ' then leaves

"What just happened " kéké asks while looking at me. I look at the paper and see a phone number with Matt written on top

"You see he did like you" I just pulled out my tongue

"Real mature" says Dami and we just laugh.

............................

"Mummy I'm home" I shout while closing the front door.

"Where were you" she asks with a questioning look.

"Out with the girls" I say simply

"Oh you've eaten?"

"Yes "

"Ok" she says going back to what she was doing.

"Ayoooooo" I here a little voice say

"Yusrah how are you" I ask picking the 8year old up she was actually my step sister cause after my dad's death my mum remarried and had her but it didn't work out and she won her custody but she sees her dad sometimes.

"Fine I missed you and how are Dami and kéké did you............."

"Whow whow whow calm down you'll see them tomorrow so go to bed cause it's kinda late ..."

"I was waiting for you"

"Oh ok lets go to bed now. You want to sleep in my room?"

"Yesssssss please"she says happily.

"Go get ready for bed ill be back"

"oki "she says while running to my room.

"bodaaaaaaa" I shout

"Yeeeees, your back!."Hafiz says enthusiastically.

"Yeah just wanted to say good night" he kisses me on the forhead and says good night

"Good night mummy" I say while hugging her

"Good night queen" I go to my room, do my nightly necessary, tuck yus in, jump in the bed and cuddle her to sleep.
