^later that day I had just finished with my assignments when my younger sister walked into my room^
Deborah:and what happened to knocking before coming in(I glared at her)
Mercy:whatever. Dad said to tell you we have a guest he wants you downstairs in five minutes (walks out banging the door)
Deborah:(I scoffed and mimicked her)
^i got into something presentable and walked downstairs to meet my dad and his best friend conversing . I also took notice of a younger person about my age smiling at them
Deborah:good evening sir(I greeted)
Mr akin:my lord.Deborah is so big now .how are you doing dear?
Deborah:very fine sir(I smiled)
Dad:Deborah this is mr Akin's son.his name is martins
Deborah:hi(I waved and he did the same smiling)
Mum:(walks in)please let move to the dining table I have prepared dinner.
^throughout dinner martins kept staring at me which was quite weird. No doubt he was really good looking.he had more of the looks of an American,light skinned ,smart looking with a very nice body.mr akin had been my dad's best friend for as long school days. He was once married to a white woman who died about a year or two back. Martins for some reason was in rehab and just got out. Reasons why he was there I don't know or care about , probably for some bad reasons . What I really cared about was the fact that he wouldn't stop staring at me so I glared at him and gave him a vicious look^
Deborah: dad(I dropped my fork) I would like to go upstairs now I still have some assignments to finish up with.
Dad: before you go.what class are you in again?
Deborah:dad,you are always forgetting (I pout)
Dad:I'm sorry honey.just loads of things on my mind
Deborah: well I just got into my senior year two
Dad:that true. I forgot.okay honey you can go now
Deborah:alright daddy.uncle akin do have a nice trip home.
Mr akin:thank you dear
^After clearing my dishes,I was heading upstairs when I received a text message from Kenneth .I froze.^
