The day finally came..I couldnāt sleep through out last nightā¦over anxiety wants to kill..me..I woke up as early as possible as I arranged all my things for my journey..I took my bathe..very fast..and dressed up..waiting for uncle emeka in..the living room..just then mama joined me with my father in the living room..
Mr Johnson:my Lagos daughter..you ve woken up so early..(sits beside theresa)
Theresa:yes..papa..!
Mrs Johnson:(sits beside theresa)letās pray..before your uncle..gets here..
Theresa:sure mama
We sang our usual morning song which every Nigerian knows..āin the morning..early in the morningafter that mama took the lead in prayer..she prayed for journey mercy and also prayed that I receive favour were ever I stepped my feet on..we prayed for like 45minutes..and when we were done..mama and papa gave me words of wisdoms..they advised me..so well and I promised to keep to their wordsā¦
Finally uncle emeka arrived with his latest range over car as I hugged mama and papa..uncle emeka packed my luggages inside the boot of the carā¦
Theresa:I have to go now..
Mrs Johnson:God bless you my daughter..
Mr Johnson:be a good girl..
Theresa:sure..
I rushed into the car with excitement as uncle emeka talked to my parents for a while..and finally he entered the car..as I bidded mama and papa from the window..tears rolls down my cheeks..I canāt believe a grown up sixteen years old girl like me can actually be crying for leaving her parents aside..uncle emeka zoomed off..
The journey to the city took us..hours..to reach the cityā¦I was sitting at the front seat of the car..as I couldnāt remove my eyes from the windows admiring the nature..and how beautiful Lagos was..musics have never heard of and girls and boys walking round the streets..I didnāt see anything like clay pot..I saw tap water..for the first time..though I was been thought how to use it in school..when my home economics teacher explained to us..how to use it..I was enjoying the Cool breeze coming from the windows as uncle emeka broke the silence..he had asked me earlier if I was hungry and of course I told him yes.. despite being a big girl..I donāt joke with my stomach..so we dropped by at a restaurant..I offered for Egusi..soup popularly known as melon soup and akpu..aka fufu..with cold minerals..while uncle emeka offered for jollof rice and chicken..which isnāt my type at all..After we ate..we headed off to uncle emekaās mansion in Lagos..
(Emekaās mansion)
