As the taxi dropped us at the estate entrance since no commercial vehicle can enter.

 

 

 

As We walked to our house they all entered an eatery in the estate and I wondered what they wanted to buy.

 

 

 

I waited for till got out and each of them with nylon in their hand, but I don’t mind at all.

I use the key to open the gate as we reach home then we entered.

 

 

 

I opened the main door also then went to my room immediately.

 

 

 

No one say anything to anybody till we reach house, I know deep down they are so angry with me but like always who cares.

 

 

 

I freshened up and change into a more comfortable cloth, I didn’t spend the #1,000 Mrs Richards gave me.

 

 

 

I don’t see any reason why I needed so much money when there’s food, I kept the money in a safe place.

 

I went downstairs to find something to eat, I swear reach people they enjoy no be small.

 

 

 

Since I’m not that hungry I decided not to cook so I voted for yoghurt and snacks then I later find out that the they bought hamburger at the eatery.

(Evening)

 

.

 

In the evening when we are eating dinner Mr Richards asked how my first day at school was.

 

e dey fine sir” I replied.

 

 

 

that’s good……..it’s only a matter of time you will get use to it” Mr Richards said.

 

daddie you didn’t even ask about us” Katie said.

 

 

 

oh c’mon Kate, of course I was gonna ask it’s just that it’s because it’s his first time” Mr Richards said.

 

 

 

how was school today, dear?” he asked.

 

boring” Katie replied.

 

first day might be like that…….what about the rest of you?” he asked.

 

 

 

it was fine…dad” they said.

 

dad……we need a phone” Paul said.

 

you are still young to own a phone” Mr Richards said.

 

 

 

but dad, most of my classmates own a phone some even have an iPad” Paul said.

 

 

 

alright I will, but you need to pass your Junior waec before I can do that” Mr Richards said.

 

 

 

 

” but dad, it’s way too long” Paul said.

 

 

well I suggest you focus on your education then, that’s what I did for your elder sister as well” he said and no one say anything.

 

 

 

I will be traveling on a business trip, when I’m gone I don’t want to hear of any trouble……Do you guys hear me?” He said.

 

Yes sir’?” We replied

 

 

 

Throughout the week school has been great, I been learning new things everyday.

 

 

 

I also make sure I read my note all the time to keep up for me not to embarrass myself in front of my little classmates.

 

 

 

I must commend the teachers cause they are doing a great job, I grab all that they teach immediately.

 

 

 

There was a time the basic science teacher asked the whole class a question, She asked a question and she called on us one after the other to answered the question.

 

 

 

Anyone that answer the question should be seated and those that didn’t will be punished.

 

 

 

The questions she asked are from what she thought us, she asked some students and some were able to answer it while the others can’t.

 

 

 

I was among those that answered the questions correctly but there are about seven who couldn’t and Paulina is among them.

 

 

 

so the seven of you hadn’t been listening in class” the teacher said looking at the seven of them.

 

 

 

this is what I’m going to do I will ask another question so all you need to do is answer the question” the teacher said and she asked another question and none of the seven is able to answer it.

 

 

 

so who’s going to bail them out? ” the teacher asked facing us and no one answered though I know the answer.

 

 

 

alright then the seven of you will have to pick the litres in the school compound for a whole week” she said and I see a displeasing countenance on them all.

 

 

 

I will bail them out ” I said.

 

okay, the instrument for measuring blood pressure is called? ” she asked changing the question but luckily she has already thought us.

 

 

 

it’s called sphygmomanometer” I answered and the teacher smiled.

 

 

 

you are all lucky, he saved you……there won’t be a next time so I suggest you listen when I

 

teach……good day” she said then left the class.

 

 

 

Six of the students I help came to thank me except Paulina, but who cares…..i don’t need her thanks.

(days Later)

 

.

 

As days pass on I got used to the things in Lagos, in school, and also at home.

 

 

 

I think the spoilt brat have also gotten used to me being there in the house but that doesn’t mean they have stop taunting me.

 

 

 

It’s more like they have accepted me being there in their house but they won’t let my stay in the house be peaceful.

 

 

 

We are still keeping scores in the wickedness we did to eachother.

 

 

 

The score is 4-2 recently have not being able to do anything to them but it seems they are having the upper hand.

 

 

They got the four point one afternoon when I cooked and I went to defecate in my room and by the time I came back they’ve finished the food without me eating any.

 

 

 

To be honest it pain me alot cause on that I was really hungry, and also unfortunately for me the snacks in the fridge is finished.

 

 

 

I had to wait till dinner before I could eat on that very day.

 

 

 

I waited for me to see an opportunity to take my revenge on them but I can’t.

 

 

 

Mr Richards has went on a business trip a few days ago and he promised to get us all a gift.

 

 

 

We came home from school today and was surprised to meet Mrs Richards at home.

 

good afternoon ma” I greeted as I entered.

 

 

 

Good afternoon mom” they greeted as they entered.

 

afternoon guys, how was school?” she asked.

 

 

 

fine ma” we replied.

 

surprised to see me home early? ” she said and we nodded affirmative.

 

 

 

well you grandpa, my father is in the hospital” she announced and we exclaimed in shock.

 

 

 

Is he alright?…..what happened?” Vanessa asked.

 

I got a call that he fainted this afternoon” she said.

 

 

 

sorry mom” the kids said.

 

sorry ma” I said.

 

yeah, I need to go see him tomorrow” she said.

 

 

 

you’re traveling to port Harcourt? ” Paul said.

 

yes baby and I will be there for maybe a week or so till he gets better” she said.

 

 

 

should I call someone to look after you or do you guys think you can take care of yourself?” she asked.

 

 

 

no need mom, we will be fine on our own ” Vanessa said.

 

are you sure?….do you think you cab cope?” Mrs Richards asked facing me.

 

 

 

no worry aunty, all is well” I said.

 

Mom, we are not kids anymore we can look after ourselves” Paulina said and I since they might be plannings something against me.

 

 

 

okay then” Mrs Richards said.

 

mommy, is he going to be fine?” Katie asked.

 

yes sweetie, he will fine” Mrs Richards assured.

yes I did” she replied.

I will also leave you some cash so I think you should be okay” she concluded.

(Next Day)

 

.

 

I woke up very early today and get ready for school, after I’m through with the preparation I went downstairs and met Mrs Richards in the kitchen making breakfast.

 

 

 

good morning ma” I greeted as usual and she turn around.

 

hey….morning Joseph…..how was your night?” she asked.

 

 

 

it’s fine ma ” I replied.

 

uh..that’s good” she said.

 

 

 

I helped her out with the dishes and the cooking, after a while we are through with everything.

 

 

 

Not long after Vanessa and the others came down and greet their mother.

 

good morning mom” they greeted.

 

 

 

how are you my darlings?” she said.

 

fine mom” they replied.

 

alright guys, everything is set just have your breakfast so you won’t be late” she said.

 

 

 

your flight is in morning right?” Vanessa asked.

 

yes dear, so I suggest I get ready also” Mrs Richards said then went upstairs.

 

 

 

We sat at the dinning and have our meal peacefully, after we are done with it, we got ready and waited for Mrs Richards.

 

 

 

Few minutes later, she came down with an envelope and handed it to me.

 

 

 

this is fifty thousand naira for you to use just incase you guys might be needing anything” she said then handed it to me.

 

 

 

My heart was beating loudly only if they listen attentively they will hear the sound it make.

 

I’ve never hold a lot of money as that before in my life not even in my dream.

 

 

 

aunty this one is too much ooo…..food still dey for house na” I said.

 

I just want to make sure you guys are comfortable” Mrs Richards said.

 

 

 

thanks Mom…….but mom the money should be with me not him” Vanessa said pointing at me.

 

 

 

perhaps she knew what I’m capable of” I though.

 

 

 

listen sweetie, one he’s the eldest, two he’s the cook of the house since I won’t be around and also the one that will look after you all” Mrs Richards said.

 

 

 

Mom what if we needed money?” paulina said.

 

then you will have to ask him” Mrs Richards said and Vanessa seems displeased.

 

 

 

Joseph….listen, you are the eldest and also the man of the house, please take of them for me….take care of the house as well” she said to me.

 

 

 

don’t worry aunty, nothing will happen ” I assured.

 

thank you” she said then I went to my room and keep it.

 

 

 

As I got downstairs we heard the school bus horn.

 

that’s our ride” Paul said.

 

 

 

I’m so going to miss you guys” she said hugging me then went to hug Paulina then Paul.

 

 

 

mommy will be back soon okay” she said as she hug Katie then she hugged Vanessa.

 

As the woman of the house take care of them as well” Mrs Richards said to her.

 

 

 

bye guys” she said as we move to the door.

 

bye ma” I said.

 

bye mom” they said then we went out.

(Afternoon)

 

.

 

We got home to meet a empty house so we are actually going to be alone in this house for a week or more.

 

 

 

I’m cooking fried rice, who’s eating? ” I asked but they said nothing.

 

I’m going to need some money, so give me #10,000″ Vanessa said to me.

 

 

 

#10,000, you dey craze?…..wetin you wan use am do? ” I asked.

 

how is that any of your concern?……..my mom gave it to you and I’m requesting for it right now” she said.

 

 

 

thank God you said she give am to me, so if you no have a good reason, I no go give you shin shin, shingbain you no go see ” I said to her.

 

 

 

I’m hosting a sleepover party on Friday and I’m gonna need some cash” She said.

 

where you wan do am? ” I asked.

 

 

 

for here of course, why are you so dumb” she said.

 

No” I said.

 

what do you mean No? ” She asked.

 

 

 

I no allow am” I said.

 

are you crazy?……this is not your house, this is my house,……you can’t tell me what to and not do” she said angrily.

 

 

ehh….your mama Don give me command and na wetin I say na hin you must do…….and I say NO” I said.

 

 

 

Screw you” she shouted and dash to her room.

 

shiioor….yeye girl” I said then went to kitchen to start preparation of the food.

 

 

 

I was still making preparations then the small rat entered then she stood at the doorstep.

 

haha, small rat wetin you want?” I asked.

 

 

 

don’t call me that…..that’s not my name” she said in a less angry attitude which is surprising cause she’s just like her elder sister.

 

 

 

okay Kate, what do you want?” I asked and she pouted like she wanted to say something but find it uneasy then I have an idea.

 

 

 

do you want to eat fried rice?” I asked and she stylishly nodded affirmative and I busted into laughter.

 

 

 

so you want to eat my food now? ” I said laughing.

 

fine, forget I said that….i will just eat something else” she said and tried to leave.

 

 

 

wait…wait…wait……..okay…i will cook yours as well” I said them she left without saying anything.

 

 

 

I’ve been noticing her harshness towards me seems to be reducing, perhaps maybe she realises she’s not strong enough to hold hunger, so she tried to be friends with the two sides so she won’t lose at the end Smart Girl.

 

 

 

Not long after Vanessa and the twins came to the kitchen and asked me to give them money so they could buy food to eat.

 

 

 

I dipped my hand inside my pocket and bring out #1500 note and handed it to her.

 

” heyy, what the hell is this?” she said in disbelief.

 

 

 

you blind?……na money na” I said.

 

how can you give four of us this to eat” she said.

 

 

 

noo na, Kate no dey among, she was chop the one wey I dey cook” I said.

 

no….it’s a lie…….katiee” she called and Kate came to the kitchen.

 

 

 

“is it true you wanted to eat what he’s cooking ” Vanessa asked and she nodded.

 

whatever…….this is still not enough” Vanessa said.

 

 

 

haha…..you want buy the whole food wey dey for there, see if you cannot use that one then you no dey hungry be that” I said then continue with what I’m doing.

 

 

 

A while later the food is ready and I dished it out for us, just as I took it to the dinning Vanessa and the twins also came in with their own food.

 

 

 

I called on Katie to let’s eat and she came immediately, they also brought their food to the dinning.

 

 

 

As we are eating I see them ogling our food cause I decorated it with egg and plantain.

 

 

 

I’m sure the little rat enjoyed the food due to the way she’s eating though she didn’t say a word.

 

 

 

After we are done with dinner I make sure the house is secured, I went to the gate to make sure it’s locked.

 

 

 

I went back in and locked the door as well then adjust the curtains, I switched off the light in the parlor and then went to my room.

(Next Day)

 

.

 

I woke up earlier than I used just because I had to cook breakfast for us just like Mrs Richards usually does.

 

 

 

I commend that woman alot she’s doing one hell of a job to be waking very early everyday just to cook.

 

 

 

After I’m done with breakfast I went to my room to have my bath, I entered the bathroom and have a quick shower.

 

 

 

By the time I entered my room I was shocked with what I saw, my school uniform has been torn to pieces.

 

 

 

ah ah ah ah ah…….which kain devil be this” I shouted in shock.
