Poor little rich me: The Ninja warrior.

1438 Words
4. I had to make a decision and make it fast, i thought of the adventurous movies i always watched mostly with my brothers and i thought to myself, "this is the easiest job in the entire universe and am up to it" with that renewed energy, i run to my room messed it more looking for my marker pen and a scarf to tie around my head and therefore transform into a little ninja warrior, life indeed is so sweet you just need to make it abit more adventurous. I looked for my pen to no avail how was i going to be a ninja warrior without the drawings on my face? after searching for quite sometime, i remembered it was in my hideout room, so i rushed there where there was some order bearing it was the only place that whoever is doing the messing up didn't get to. I carefully drew my face just like in the movies, tied a scarf round my head, wore rugged jeans, a t-shirt and a black leather jacket therefore i convinced myself what a mighty Ninja warrior i will be and by evening my family will be back and i will narrate how i transformed to a Ninja warrior in order to save them, i imagined how they will hail praises on me, how my brothers will carry me around affectionately, kisses from my parents and sisters and eventually the house will be in order.  5. As i was lost in my own world i heard something drop and i wanted to run into my room because finally my family was back, however before i jumped i remembered every time i was in my hideout with any of my sibling, there is something they always taught me that whenever we were in the hideout and  heard any noise, we used to check out through a pin hole and if it wasn't clear, there were some button that we would press  and a screen popped out showing my entire house, it was possible to zoom in or out any part of the room apart from the bedrooms beyond the entrance however from other rooms you could view entire room with exception of bathrooms, closets which were all walk in and of course master bedroom, the secret room was sound proof in that someone could not here you even if you screamed how high. So with my gut feeling kicking in i went to the pin hole and what i saw made me almost pee on myself, i fell with a thud and apparently hit my head in that i couldn't lift it up, i cried aloud but then i remembered the tears weren't going to help me in anyway and also remembered the mission i was up-to, so i gathered all the energy i could summon at that time and borrowed all the courage i could from my toys, they seemed to also sense the danger because they just stared at me not that they ever blink anyway, but their gaze encouraged me and i announced to them, "lets do this and save the family, then i will come and get a good rest, i promise all of you i will share my bed when i get back, though you are too many" i almost got lost in my own monologue and i was forgetting the task at hand, i went back to the pinhole i looked around but couldn't see anything so i pressed on the button and a screen size of a mini laptop popped up, it brought a picture of my entire room all the way from the corridor and then at the bottom other rooms were showing though into small segments. 6. I checked the one showing my room and alas there they were two mean looking men, one was going through everything in my room while the other was trying to check something on the walls and seemed so keen, i felt like storming in my room because i saw them taking some of my items and putting in a bag, including my favorite perfume, the doll that  was always on my bedside table which was now on the floor, how dare they take my things, they even took my piggy bank which am sure had a lot of money with currencies from various countries, whenever my dad or any of my family member traveled, i used to guess their destination by the currency of that country and if i got it right they doubled the amount therefore in my piggy bank were Kenyan money, dollars, euros, Canadian dollar, pounds, Chinese yuan, Ugandan and Tanzanian shilling, all these currencies were mostly in notes therefore i had a customized piggy bank like four times the one i saw in the banks and yes i had been offered several whenever my dad or brothers took me to bank and yes i had two accounts with different banks, one was in Kenya shillings and the other in dollars, i used to divide the money and choose which one to change to Kenyan shillings and the ones to change to dollars. 7. This banking adventure taught me something, when i would go with my dad we used to bank directly regardless of the currency then the bank gave us the total figure according to their exchange rate, however whenever i went with my first brother who was a bit tough at times and sometimes no nonsense we used to pass by an exchange bureau, change the currency to Kenyan shillings and dollars as well, then head to the bank, this way he told me i get to get a better exchange rate compared to banks and it was true, same amount with dad was more with my brother and i loved going with him because we would then pass by his office in dads company and he used to give me some typing job and pay me which i found very cool, even with my payment i would then pass by dads office and he gave me lunch allowance for going to work, then my sisters would take me to eat out and mostly we wouldn't go back to the office again, i forgot to mention, my entire family worked in my dads company, he had bought a whole building which had five floors, their offices were in different floors only dads' and mams' were on top floor though different directions and i loved to surprise them by either popping up in their respective office or just making calls through office lines and had to use official language  my brother always insisted on this if i didn't he used to disconnect the line and i used to frown my face but that didn't move him, sometimes dad used to tell him not to be tough on me but i loved it because on normal circumstances i used to get away with anything and whenever we went to the office i had to dress officially so i had several suits and loads of official outfits, the only thing i wasn't allowed to wear were high heels, mum used to insist that my bones were too young for that but i used to admire her and my sisters in high heels and how they walked elegantly.  8. Its been sometime before we went to the bank or the office for that matter, my dad and brothers seemed to be on the skies more frequently than before, even the last two Christmases we flew to various destination without the entire "pack" as dad called us because either him or my  siblings were on some official business and yes dad had offices in Rwanda, Dubai, London, China and Ireland am not sure what they were really doing, mum said i had all the time in this world to learn that i first concentrate on being the child, there is a time it was just me and mum everyone else seemed to have offices in the planes because it was destination after another, i was home schooled and mostly by mum. Due to this being on skies all the time my piggy bank had quite a lot of money but that didn't matter at the end of the day will earn more once my family was back.  I concentrated on these people whom i didn't know what they were looking for in my room, i saw movement in other rooms and realized each room had two people and they seemed to be searching for something, did these people know where my family was and what exactly were they looking for?
