TWERKISM: THE BEGINNING

Twerk for Jesus

One year later

Katrina p.o.v

Early Saturday morning

I stayed at home for some months and my parents allowed me, my mom was home schooling me,

after some few months we were ready to leave Nigeria our motherland good riddance,

hello USA ,it took us 8 hours to get there,we arrived in Chicago,

my dad bought a house and we brought our suitcase to the living room

the house was very comfortable, I got a larger room and a good toilet, my dad got his very own swimming pool and my dad allowed

my mother to get a twerking studio to have more time on her work

My dad had already decided which school I am going to next week and I am already nervous and of what to do

We went shopping with little money we had left and bought some clothes

The next day

Me and my lovely mom, we visited many places everyone was friendly to us , I even met two girls who were going to be my classmates,

we talked for some minutes about where we are from and hobbies and we instantly got along, their names where Ashley and Riley , I waved them good bye

It was time for dinner and I was happy it wasnt eba or fufu , it was spaghetti and meatballs(/I like traditional food but they are not that delicious compared to Western food/) I ate the food like I have never eaten it at all when I was done I washed my plates and slept and prayed for good days like today

Sunday morning

Sunday morning (/my hated, best day/)

I sluggishly stood up from my bed and started bathing after I was done with it,

I had to choose which clothes to wear for church out of all the clothes we bought yesterday, I picked a nice blue and black stripe dressing to wear for church,

my mom shouted food is ready!!, I shouted back, I am coming mom,!!! I swiftly went downstairs and ate my food, after a few minutes we finished eating,

we prayed for protection and provision and we thank God for what he has done and what he will do,

we entered the car and drove to a fourteen minutes drive to the church, I cant believe the church is close to us, in Nigeria it took us over an hour to get there anyway when I got there I was surprised that my parents were very familiar to this church, maybe it could be that they have gone to this church when they travelled for their honeymoon

I was welcomed to the church , so many people were friendly with me because of my parents I got to make friends so

Church started with praise and worship for over thirty minutes

the sermon took over three hours and my mom was nowhere to be found I asked my dad

where's mom he said dont worry you will see her very soon, the sermon took another 30 minutes after the pastor it was time for praises and dancing,

I was surprised to see my mom one of the people up in the stage, she doesnt have a good voice but she knows how to dance,

my mom was twerking in the church while singing, I guess this is why she chose this church they allow twerking in the church but not in a s****l manner, after 20 minutes of praises and dances, the pastor close the church with a prayer,

cant believe this church took over four hours, in Nigeria it only took two hours and we arent even there in the first half part of the service, We went back home and continue our day, after a few hours of daily activity I slept and anxious about tomorrow

Monday morning

Good morning sweetie rise and shine, I woke up and heard my mom waking me up, I thank God, for keeping me alive and protecting me and I asked God to give me courage

I got ready for my first day of school, it just the first day if school nothing special ,

I got downstairs to eat my cereal , my mom took me to school, before she drove out of the school,she yelled I love you, I hope no one saw that,

I entered the school I met my friends I saw on Saturday, they helped me with my classes and extra curriculum so I was pretty much settled in school and I was worried for nothing

7hrs later

My mom came to pick up from school she asked how was school ,did you have any problems finding your way I explained to her all what happened and that I was fine, she was happy and I was also happy, we got home, I bathed and went through my homework; I know right homework on the first day, I watched some cartoons and slept late on a school night

I wish everyday could be like this
