"We sounded like those poets" Amarachi smiled
"You and who sounded like those poets?" Jimmy asked squeezing his face
"Jimmy your line wasn't supposed to be at the ending " Lami held her face muttering some incoherent words
"What do you mean? That was the best place for it, it sounded more like a prayer" Jimmy defended
"But we weren't praying," Lami said still holding her face
"Well following Janet's line, it matched," He said
"It's okay! Whether his line came last or first. It is okay" Craig tried settling the dispute but looks like he failed
"Don't talk when your elders are talking" Lami twisted his ear while Jimmy gave him a slap at the back of his head "Ouch!! I'm sorry"
"Was it only me that had trouble refraining myself from opening Elles' gift?" Jason asked smiling cheekily
Everybody started talking together, "I'll go first" Amarachi suggested
She cleared her throat " It wasn't easy at all, I wanted to see what was inside. I fought with temptation yesterday but I conquered"
" Welcome to How We Overcome, today we'll be sharing our experience on how we overcame temptation from opening a gift" Jason talked with enthusiasm as he stared at an invisible camera like those OAPs or Tv presenters.
Turning to Amarachi "so Miss Amarachi mind telling us how you conquered this temptation you fought with" He stretched a rolled exercised book that served as a microphone
"Well, I thank the Lord" Amarachi began " it wasn't an easy battle at all, I was fighting with temptation face to face, it would slap me I would slap back, punch me I would punch back"
"Thank you very much Miss Amarachi, any words for your fans out there?"
"Hey, fans! Don't forget violence is not an answer or does not provide an answer but using your fist will" She smiled at the invisible camera waving at it
Jason looked at her confused" What's the difference? Anyways next is Miss Lami"
He turned to her " Hello Miss Lami, please tell us how you conquered the temptation" he stretched the mic to her
"As an obedient student and child-"
Everybody snorted at the statement she made, Amarachi was the loudest,
She continued" It wasn't hard following the condition that came with the gift"
"So are you saying that those who really fought blow to blow with the temptation are not obedient student?" Jason asked
