He knocked on the big black iron
gate at the entrance of his
father’s house. His junior sister
Mary opened the gate for him.
“Welcome bro Segun.” She
greeted bending her knees.
“Thank you.” He answered.
“Bring your bag.” She requested.
Giving it to her. “Is Daddy at
home?” he asked.
“No.” she replied.
“What of mummy?”
“She’s not back from the shop.”
she answered.
He entered into the sitting room,
climbed the stairs and went
straight to his room to change
and take a shower. He came
down some minutes later and
asked for his food. He was
served a plate of rice and fried
plantain and fish. He ate the food
hungrily and went into his room
to take a nap.

Immediately he got into his
room, he unplugged his phone
and logged in to a popular chat
