"certainly that day had to end and now we have to do the cleaning and washing for all the people ", David said to his sister sadly.  The worst duty for him to do was dish washing.  His sister cheered him up by assuring him that it will be fun doing it as a team.  Still with a tight face, he said to her"but they are so many. It will take hours to do them...", he was cut short by Kasey"shhhhh, the work won't kill us will it? Let me do  the washing,  you rinse and keep", she said to him. "Okay SIS". In an hour they were done doing the job.  It wasn't really their duty to do, the people from the church were to do it,  but their truly religious and helpful mum made them do it.  It was prayer time then and it lasted for twenty minutes.  After the last Amen chorused by the family,  the day had truly begun.
       According to the home's duty roster, Kasey does the sweeping, mopping,  and dishes while dusting the furniture, disposing dirts was David's job.  Mum did the cooking early in the morning for them to eat in the morning and also made lunch.  The security guard washes the cars and waters the flowers. After the kids were done with their jobs, they were free to do what they felt like doing.  Mum and Dad left for work and the kids were left behind. They were glueing their eyes to the TV because they had nothing else to do.  A knock was heard at the gate. It was Jessy.  The gate man opened the gate for him to come in.  He rang the doorbell and in a few seconds,  the door was opened to him. The friends exchange pleasantries and he came in smiling beautifully at his friends. "so what brings you here today Jessy ", Kasey asked him. "well,  I thought,  since you are new in town,  I should let you know some friendly people around "."I don't know Jessy,  we don't really go out" David said. Their minds were changed when the lights went off.  The new compound was having real electricity problems.
        Jessy took them to the neighbouring house saying it also was his friend's house. He knocked but there was no reply,  the gate was open. They went in and found the house owners having breakfast behind the house. Jessy's friend was named Israel. He lived with his mother,  grand parents,  and sisters. They were offered food,  but they rejected it not because they won't eat,  but because they were okay. "maybe next time Mrs Jake " Jessy said. They immediately became friends with the Jake's and even visited them often. The closeness in Kasey and Israel's friendship was being suspected by the others. Kasey was spending less time at home and kept on moving to her friends homes. The rest of the friends in the group got jealous and decided that they would find out for themselves what was going on between Kasey and Israel.
