In the car..
"Sister Isabella, thank you so much for today.. Infact, ..I can't thank you enough.." I said
"Thanks too dear.. did you enjoy?" She asked
"Ah..! So much" I said, "but sister Isabella, why are you doing all this to me?"
"Hahaha! Olivaa!! Well, I'm doing this out of love" she replied
"Love!!" I was puzzled
"Oliva, I really adore you, I envy you for having such a great brother like Abel, you spend a lot of time together.. to be honest I wish I would spend every second of the day with him.. I love your brother and it has been since long, but the courage.. I can't gather my strength together to confess how much I love him.." she explained
"Oh!" my mouth went wide searching for a proper response
"So, the only option is to be close to you so that I can be close to him and grab his attention" she added
"Oh!" I was still speechless
"Oliva, am I not beautiful?" She asked
"Said who?? You are incredible sis, infact if I were you I would never let a strand of my hair touched without my permission" I nailed
" Please make your brother like me... I'll do anything for you, just name it.. anything" she begged
"Deal" I said, "But we are not as rich as you are.. isn't that a problem?"
"Love covers everything in the world, all this money is nothing if I don't have someone by my side to calm me down, keep me company and listen to whatever thought I have, I need a friend and I need someone to love me.. It is only Abel who fits the post.."
"I see, okay then.. your wish is my command" i replied
"I'll love you forever Oliva, I promise" she said happily
We were lost in a conversation and before we knew it, we were home already... almost 10pm at night
"Mamaa" I called
"My cinderella" she said
"Look at your princess" I turned around to ensure that every new detail on me was noticed
"Wooow, I can't believe such a beauty came from my womb" she said
"Oliva!! You've left some of your stuffs in the car.." said sis Bella
" Omo! You have more stuffs ee!!" Asked mama
"Yes maaa!!" I left running to the car
Sister Bella gave me the remaining shopping stuffs and escorted me to mom
"Sorry mama.. we came back late" she apologized
"No my dear, it is really fine.. thank you so much for everything. I love whatever makes my little pumpkin happy" mama said
" Mama, where is brother Abel.." I asked scanning around
"Mama, I'll be taking my leave" Bella interfered
"Okay my dear, come by any time ee!" Mom replied
Sister Isabella left.
"What! Abel? Oh! that idiot, he is not back yet. I wonder where he is.." she said
"Huh! I wish he would have seen how pretty I looked.. and my sisters.. where are my sisters?" I asked
"They are sleeping, hurry go and have some rest as well" she insisted
"What about brother Abel?" I asked
" He is a big boy now, maybe he has decided to sleep over his friend's house as he always does, don't bother yourself, go and sleep my baby" she nailed
"Okay maa!" I said and left
My heart was so excited.."Brother Abel will love me forever when he comes tomorrow, I'll tell him the secret of my luck.."
Early next morning, I woke up the last and found mother gathering a meeting with my sisters about a bad dream she had..
"My daughters, I really had a bad dream yesterday regarding Abel.." she said
"Who? Why!!" All the sleep that was still controlling me disappeared
"I dreamt that Abel was running in a deep jungle crying for help but unfortunately, he fell into a huge water fall that I have never seen before" Mama said
