chapter one

"You came late again", I said to my parents trying my best not to get angry but it wasn't just working. It just sounded wired, they hadn't had time to celebrate their anniversary so I decided to have a special family dinner with them. It pained me to know that I had wasted a lot of time trying to prepare the whole thing and now this. They always did this its as if they didn't have time for me or anything relating to the family. My dad is a banker and my mom owns a boutique, we are Nigerians and we live in in Lagos a place in Nigeria. My mom came closer to me taping me at my shoulder she said "Genny honey we are sorry, you should understand that it wasn't our fault" she paused for a while and continued again "your dad had something to do at the bank and I had to manage something at the boutique, you should know that what ever we are doing is for you because we want you to be happy and we won't regret it", she pause again and turned to my dad which meant he should say something. He cane closer and wrapped me in his arms and said "honey, mother is right, we are sorry we are doing this for you, for the best". My mom stood there smiling as I hugged my dad then she joined us.

The next day, I woke up very early in time to meet my parents for us to have breakfast tougher because they had promised me yesterday to make up for the dinner they missed with me.

I ran to their rooms to reminded them but its they were already gone I felt disappointed so I walked to my room sadly. I had woken up early so that I could have breakfast with them and they disappointed me again. Well I wasn't surprised because they were used to it and also good at it felt very angry and the only thing that could cool me down that moment was an apple.

I walked down stairs to get myself an apple from the fridge when I heard a voice saying "you had told us to have breakfast with you so hurry up we are waiting for you honey" she smiled as I turned to her I was shocked I though they had left this time I felt guilty, I always blamed them for coming late and this time I had delayed them. "I am very sorry mom" was the only thing I could say "its no problem" she said "now let's have breakfast cos am vary hungry at the moment, I didn't get to eat dinner" I smiled back at her as she continued "your dad and I had been waiting for you at the dinning I got impatient so he had to eat his, don't worry he would still join us for our breakfast, you know your father". Mom was actually right dad eats alot , he cold even eat two full buckets of ice cream, he adores food and mother always complains about that she also planed on looking up the fridge to avoid dad from having having access.

"Come sit here honey", my mom said as she pulled the chair for me to sit down beside her. Dad took like eight slices of bread, he was about to take another when mom slap his hand and pulled it away. We ate our breakfast in peace and there was silence cos no one had anything to when mom cleared her throat and began to speak "so honey, we have decided" facing my dad then back to me "about what mother",she stood up and dragged me from my sit holding my arms tight "we promise to give you our time and we would also go on a vacation, of course after your interview which would be next three weeks okays", rubbing my head gently she kiss my forehead and hugged me tight to her bossom, my dad came and rapped us both with his hand forming one happy

THREE WEEKS LATER

Well I really enjoyed my parents being around with me and all the fun we had together for the past three weeks we had together it was wonderful. I had to pack, the next day we would be going for our vacation. I was very excited about the trip and I made sure I brought out all the things I needed for the trip. I heard a knock on that door and said "come in" it was my mom she walked into the room and smiled at me ."mom your here" I asked folding my cloths, "y...yes of course am here t...to tell you something" her smile changed, she looked worried, "we had to cancelled the trail yesterday, sorry I couldn't tell you I mean we couldn't tell you baby, you know you were really excited and all that so we didn't want to ruin your happiness, am sorry honey but I hope you understand. "Yes, yes I do understand, the fact you guys always disappoint me and... and..." I noticed she was trying to hold her laughter.
"what's funny about that?" I asked

"I don't know"

"Mom..."

"The fact that you believed me"

"Noway,you... you... momm!",

"What,I was only trying to test you please don't get mad at me for just that am sorry"

I replied by saying "okay"
"The trip is tomorrow so make sure you get all you need OK, good night baby" she kissed on my fore head,
"Good night mommy" I said back to her then continued with my packing.
