when I fell in love - Season 1 - Episode 19

Opened my eyes to the morning light,it was
monday already.I stepped out of bed to the
living room,i saw bisi preparing to leave the
house for her exams.

Donald: wish you goodluck

Bisi: (smiled) thanks

I saw her out the gate,as i turned to mums
room,i saw joy coming out of her room.I
smiled at her.

Joy: Good morning donald!

Donald: how was your night?

Joy: it was peaceful

Donald: oh really! that’s nice.

Joy: yeah! guess bisi is out for her exams
Donald: yes

Joy: ours is tomorrow,i feel nervous!
Donald: You don’t have to,everything would go
well.

Joy: (came up to me and hugged me) thanks
donald

Donald: you are welcome.

Still in her tight hug,mum came out and it
looks like she has been crying all night

Donald: Goodmorning mum!

She ignored me as if i didn’t exist.

Joy: Goodmorning aunt!

Mum: oh my dear,how was your night?

Joy: (looked at me) it was fine

Mum: your mum as dropped your things here

Joy: (surprised) when!

Mum: while you were asleep

Joy: (sad) they left without saying goodbye

Mum: she didn’t want to wake you up.

Joy: i’m uses to it anyway

Mum: (looked at me) donald the garden has
gone out of shape,would you go and trim it!

Donald: (surprised because we had a gardener)
okay mum

Joy: but aunt,what happened to the gardener?

Mum: i want donald to do it?

Joy: (looked at me) alright aunt
I stepped out to trim the garden,i did my
best.I was so worn out after. I came in and i
found mum and joy eating on the dinning
table.

Donald: Just in time for breakfast (i pulled out
a chair to sit)

Mum: And what do you think you are doing?

Donald: To eat!

Mum: if you don’t want me to get mad at
you,you better go and wash those dirty clothes
of yours,have your bath and brush you dirty
teeths.You’ve been lazy this days you know!

Joy: (laughs) no food for lazy guys

Donald: (i raised an eyebrow towards joy)
alright

I was so hungry,i quickly washed the cloths in
the washing machine and spread them
outside.I brushed my teeth and took my bath
as fast as possible.After i was done with all
that,i went to the dinning,mum wasn’t there.it
was only joy who was fiddling with her phone.I
saw a glass plate covered with another plate
“that must be my food” i thought to myself as
i opened it only to find a piece of paper which
read “Go and soak garri,there is sugar and
groundnut in the cupboard”
“Signed”
mum

I felt so sad because they all ate original
agege bread,sardine sauce with confirm
tea.She nah left me to soak garri as morning
food.I turned to joy who was laughing at me,i
know she knows about this

Donald: You guys conspired against me right?

Joy: it’s all aunts idea,she was thinking on
how to purnish you for your laziness.

Donald: (put my fingers on my chin,cause i
know i’ve been lazy all because of this girls
issue) but that’s not fair!

Joy: You better thank me cause she only
wanted to give you only garri but i begged her
to add groundnut and sugar to it.

Donald: (Accepted my faith) I have no choice
than to soak garri.

Joy: (brought out a plate filled with sardine
sauce and four slices of bread) i kept this for
you without aunts consent.

Donald: (happy) thanks! you are the best you
know!

Joy: if i were you,i would quickly devore it
before she comes out.

I quickly devored the food and washed the
plate so mum won’t suspect me.Mum came
out well dressed with her hand bag.

Mum: i am off to work take care of the house
donald.

Donald: (rolled my eyes) bye even if you gave
me garri to drink

Mum: (laughs) don’t be lazy next time and
make sure you study with joy,you know your
exams are tomorrow.

Donald: Alright mum

Mum left the house leaving only me and joy.I
picked up my phone and called Silvia to come
over to revise some subject
