That Shy Girl🔱 |Completed✔

Chapter 28

"Yes of course bestie, I gotchu"

"See y'all later, don't stay late" I yelled

"Okay mom" Kabeer replied rolling his eyes and I scoffed

______________________________
While they were gone, I cleaned the house, did the laundry and did some stuff in the kitchen. Pounded yam and okra, said no to rice because we're Nigerians and the level of their ajebutterness is getting on my nerves, of course couldn't thank Mr Ibro enough with his help in the pounding, so he got the largest share and I've never seen him this happy till today, I guess he gets tired of the food we eat here too, food really changes mood, I guess the saying 'A hungry man is an angry man' finally made sense to me.

I never got the chance to work out while they were around so I did a little lunges, burpee tests and plank, man was that hard! Still laying on the floor trying to catch my breathe, the song Run Me Dry by Bryson Tiller played on my phone and I know it is an incoming call but I missed it anyways enjoying the song, hoping it'd ring again. It rings again and I picked up

"YOLO!" I said

"Learn to say Assalamu alaykum"

"Sorry mom I didn't know it was you"

"Where are you? We arrived a while ago"

"It's a lie!" I exclaimed

"Girl are you calling me a liar? I see you've lost your manners"

"No ma I don't mean it in a disrespectful way, sorry" I replied shyly

"Better hurry up, it's getting late and you know the rate of kidnapping has increased"

"Okay ma, I'd be there in no time" I hanged up. I can't wait to see them, I packed my bags and switched off all the lights and gadgets, locked the doors and gave Mr Ibro the keys, I left a note on the fridge because I know they'd see it there and I left. I kept my words because I was at home in no time, who knew my legs could carry me that fast? I already heard noises and I know they were really back

"Assalamu alaykum!" I greeted but got a response from only my dad, where are the rest I thought

"Good evening sir" I greeted with one knee on the ground

"Evening, how are you?"

"I'm good dad, how was your trip?"

"Stressful, had a long one" he replied with a yawn, he really looked stressed

"Are you hungry? Would you like to eat something?"

"Your mom has already cooked" that fast, I thought, superwoman. "If you'd excuse me I'd like to have a rest" he stood stretching and headed to his room but he stopped few steps away from his room

"There's something I'd like to discuss with you" he said and my heart started skipping beats, could it be my results? Oh my God, I'm so not ready to talk about it
"Not today though maybe some other time" he said as if he read my mind

"Okay sir" I smiled as he left. Thank God I thought, I'm not ready to talk about my carryover course and how Mr Yusuf kept threatening me of failing his courses if I don't spend a night, Astagfirullah already on that thought. I was going to report him to our Head of department but then again who would believe me, he is a good man to the face of the society, long beards and ankle raised trouser, who knew what he does behind closed doors, then again don't judge a book by it's cover....just don't. I'm warning you

As I was approaching our room I could hear Zuliey running her mouth, she'd beat Eminem on a rap challenge

"Sarkin surutu (talkative)" I said as I walked in, sighting my beautiful mom, I almost walked over her as I throw my weight on her, hugging her tightly

"I miss you too" she patted my back "Now get off me" she said breathing heavily

"Oh sorry, I should have mind my weight" as she mouthed it's okay

"Yasss cow what have you been eating lately? Come give momma a hug" Zubie said as we all enveloped in a hug

"What I tell you about calling each other names?" Mom asked glaring at Zuliey

"Sorry mom" she grinned and mom just sighed

"Are you for real, have I added weight?"

"Of course you have but just a little tho" Nifah replied, all the carbs Beelarh's has been making me consume, it's not entirely her fault I should learn to say no sometimes. Kabeer fed me with total junky foods too, oh my God! I really don't want to get fatter than I already am, now I need to get serious with exercise

"What did you girls get for me?"

"A lottt, set of bags and shoes, veils and a make-up kit"

"Now I know I've got the bestest sisters in the world"

"Is that even a word?" Nifah asked

"Wait, hol'up! You changed your phone?" Zuliey asked astonished

"Well let's say someone did" I smirked

"An iPhone X?" Nifah gasped

"Yepp"

"Who is this someone?" Mom asked and I narrated our little love story

"You know men of nowadays, you better be very careful" my mother warned, I don't know what to be careful of but I know I've tripped

"Okay ma"

"Good night and you girls better sleep soon"

"Good night mom" we all said as she left for bed

"Can't wait to see this Kabeer" Zuliey smirked

"And his brothers too" Nifah said

"Well you girls know that can't happen because y'all becoming brothers/sisters in-law"

"Well don't they have friends?" Zuliey asked

"Yes they do"

"Exactly!" She smirked
