Esther was at her friend's salon making her hair ,she was busy on her phone when a mother and daughter strolled in and they were dabbling on what hairstyle to make

At some point she raised her head to see what the commotion was About, only to see the same lady jimi was with at dinner the other day

She had a smirk on her face , it's indeed a small world and keeping track of Jimi's life has just become easier.

This is fate bringing her to cross paths with this riff raff , it is going to be so easy to pull her apart now that jimi is not lurking around in the corner

Before she could even start to think of where to begin she heard the little girl call Diana mom several times and that really got her attention. She immediately turned to be sure she wasn't hearing wrong

"Oh look who we have here" she was staring directly at Diana and abby with a big smile on her face

"What a coincidence"

Diana day just turned sour from seeing this annoying loose nuts here.
What was she doing here?

"Hello" diana said and turn away from her

"Aren't you going to introduce me to the little gem"
Diana ignored her and raised abby to sit on one of the chairs

"Okay.... I guess am going to do the introduction myself"

"Hello sweetheart my name is Esther and am your mom's...."
Her mom's rival seem like a pretty strong cord so she went for the less believable but more appropriate term

"Am your mom's friend"

"We're not friends." Diana correctly immediately
"I didn't even know your name until now"

"Well let's say we didn't meet on the best of circumstances , but we can kick off on the different note"

"Hmmm..... Aunty Uduak"
Diana turned to the salon owner

"Abby wants to make something simple , school is resuming Monday and we have not concluded on what we want so we are going to leave it all to you and let's you do your magic"

Uduak smiled and approached them

"Well you don't have too worry we are going to fix you up nicely Abby"

"Thank you . Nothing too much or fancy coz she's already scratching since yesterday. The very moment she heard we are coming to the salon"

"Ahhh Abby. Naughty girl but when you finish making the hair you will start doing shakara"

"Don't mind her. Okay am going to go out and get you something to eat so just stay put . I'll be back"

"Mommy don't forget to buy plantain chips"

Esther finally got the confirmation that she needed and as Diana was going out, esther followed her out of the salon even though she was not done with her hair

"Diana hey! Wait up!"

.What's now... What does she want'

"Am not trying to cause trouble Diana, but am out of curiosity I just wanna know if what I just heard is true. The little girl in the salon just called you mommy."

Diana raised a brow. Waiting for her to get to the point

"I mean this is the part where you defend that narrative or deny it"

"I don't remember owning you any explanation about my Life"

"Relax babe. You are so worked up am just asking nicely, I mean are you actually admitting that you are a mother"
