Chapter 2 :LEKKI

The flight we took from Abuja to Lagos just landed in Murtala International Airport, Lagos and I am so excited that I'm now a university graduate with a First class degree result in Arts and Photography from one of the best Universities in the country.

Aishat, Temitope and I carried our luggage to the car temi's parents sent for us. We didn't go home directly, we went to Lekki to check the house we are going to buy through an agent company in Lagos because we want to live our parents' houses and start living together.

We stopped in front of a black gate. And inside the compound was a duplex that was painted in green and Ash colour. A man in suit came out of the compound.

"Hello young ladies. My name is David Daniel. Are you the ladies interested in buying a house through our company?" He introduced himself and asked.

" Yes we are. I'm Valerie Geoffrey, this is Aishat Ahmed and this is Temitope Jude. " I answered with a smile plastered on my face.

"Okay then Let's go in and check the house" he said as he gestured us to go in.

" Okay" we said in unison.

"The house has four bedroom each having a bathroom,a living room that also has a bathroom, a kitchen,a store room, a dinning room, a garden, a swimming pool and a large parking space  It has a good water supply and this estate has good security so you won't have to worry about your safety.The house selling Price is 12 million naira ." He explained.

We checked the house and we were very impressed with the house, it is big and beautiful, it has large rooms and is also situated close to our new work place.

We signed the property papers to make the house officially ours.

"Now the house is yours and this your property papers. Enjoy your new house. Thank you"  The man said before leaving.

We were so happy and excited that we finally own a house and we will be leaving in it in the next two to three weeks or even one month.hahaha

"I can't believe this house is our yayyyyy " I said smiling

" Yes, my love it ours and ours only nobody has the right to step a foot in here without our permission. Oh I'm finally going to get my own space and get away from that clingy sisters of my mine phew".

" Hahahahaha" we laughed.

" Ummm babes, I don't know if my parents are going to agree with this I mean I haven't told them yet, plus I don't know how they will react when I tell them oh God help me ahhhh".

" Heyyyy Tems I haven't told my parents too. Actually I was planning to tell them tonight and I also do not know if they will agree or no."

" Hey, Aishat and temi pls stop being babies, you're fully grown women, ladies. Why are you afraid of telling your parents you're moving out and it's not like you will be living with a man, we're living together okay. Just tell them hmm".

" Okay then". They said in unison.

We went back to the car and drove away. Temitope dropped me at home and bid me goodbye.

I entered the compound to see the watchman sitting on a chair close to gate,he collected my bags and took them inside. 

The first I saw was my stepmom watching TV in the living room.

"Good afternoon,mother." I greeted her.
