I woke up feeling tired all over. And the room seems different.
Where am I?...
I stood up from the bed and went out from the room.
I went to downstairs and what I saw makes me asked myself " how"?.
Lucifer was standing there preparing dinner.
Lucifer!.. Hey, baby girl. What am I doing here?.
Don't you remember? you fainted and I brought you here.
And where was my auntie?. I took you by force, do you have a problem with that?
Yeah I do!, what where you thinking, Lucifer? do you think I will live here with you?.
Exactly, because you have no where to go.
Your mom doesn't want you. That's where you are wrong. She's just angry at me and I know with time she will forgive me.
So where are you going to stay now?
That's not your business.
I went back inside the room and took my suitcase, came back to the hall ready to leave.
Are you leaving just like that? And what do you want?
No thank you for sleeping on my bed?.
In your dreams. I blamed you for my father's death and I will never forgive you for this.
Woah!.. I thought you were a Christian, so why can't you forgive, huh?. I send him a deadly glare and went out from his house.
I got a taxi and went straight to my auntie's house.
She has a nice mansion but lives alone inside. She has no child yet.

Ohh my goodness, Sarah! ..You are back my dear.
Where's that stupid friend of yours, did he drop you?
Enough auntie. You know I despise him a lot. Is because of them that my dad died and you think I will still be cool with them?.. no, never auntie.
Am sorry dear, come inside, I have a lot of rooms that you can stay in, dear. Don't worry about your mom, I will talk to her for you, she's just angry.
You sure?
I took my things inside.
Yes darling, am sure. And even if she doesn't want you then am here, I will take care of you.
Aww auntie, you always a darling, thank you so much for all your support auntie.
Ohh my goodness, look at this girl...
You don't have to thank me my dear. Don't forget your dad is my brother.
We walk upstairs and she showed me my room which was very large and located at the left side.
Wow! auntie, this is very big and spacious. I love it.
Hahahahaha, ohh my dear, this is nothing.
I will never let you lack anything in this house as far as you are staying with me here.
Relax, go in and pack your things. I will be downstairs preparing breakfast. When you are done, come down to eat.
Okay, auntie, I will.
She went back down and I closed my room door then started packing my things.
****
Am having breakfast now with my auntie.
So tell me auntie, how come Lucifer was able to take me away?. Isn't it obvious.
He took you by force. That guy is really strong.
Now you, what?. Of all the boys in your school, why did you choose to like a mafia boy like this?.
What! who told you I like him, auntie?.
I don't like him. I just want to change him for him to know God, that's all.
Are you sure? because it doesn't seem that way to me.
Cut your craps auntie. Words, young lady....
Sorry auntie. Is just that, am pissed off.
Pissed off because what am saying is the truth right?.
No, I will never fall for someone who kill my dad.
Point of corrections, he wasn't the one driving your daddy's car. But my dad could have been saved if he didn't prevent me from going.
How hundred percent sure are you that your dad could have been save just you being there?.
Auntie Rebecca, are you on his side?.
No my dear, am just telling you the fact. Don't listen to your mom words. Is not anyone fault that your dad had an accident.
His time was already up. Right now he's gone, just live your life the best you can.
Don't hate anyone, it will only bring burden on you.
Don't forget Jesus Christ gave his life so you can be forgiven. So why can't you do the same.
What are you trying to say auntie?.
What am trying to tell you is, you are young, don't keep resentment in your heart.
It will only makes you suffer my dear. Just forgive those boys and move on. Try to change them by preaching the gospel to them.
Who knows, maybe one day, they will change.
But auntie..... Come on my dear, don't be hard on yourself. You are only 18 and be finishing Senior high school this year, and by next year, you will be starting university,
You have to enjoy your life. Let the by gone by gone and move on. That's what your dad wants for you.
Okay auntie, I will try to do it. Don't just try, just do it. Hmmmm!....
When is my dad's wake taking place?.
Tomorrow evening and the next day, which is Sunday, we will buried him.
I have to be there tomorrow evening.
Are you sure? Because your mom warn you not to come there. Yeah but I don't care if she's angry or not. This is my father we are talking about auntie.
Okay fine , we will go there together.
Hurry up and finish your breakfast, it will turn cold.
Okay, auntie. Thanks for everything. Don't mention it dear.
I have to go . .Where to auntie? To your mom's place. Can I come with you?
No, you just stay here, I don't want problems for the both of you . ...
