👫💞 The Pastor’s Daughter Episode TEN:

“What were you too gossiping about? His mother asked.
“Oh mom! Nosa said and they began to talk as we waited for the lady while my job was to have a listening ear.

Minutes later the lady returned with a beautiful cake instead and a bouquet which Nosa stood up and got the flowers and Patrick the cake,
“Happy birthday mom from your sons, they said.
“Look at that, thank you so much my soldiers, She said taking the flowers from Nosa and hugged them both.

“This is so beautiful and big, I can eat this for two whole months, She said as they sat down.
“Uhmmm mommy you’ll keep cake for two months? It’s impossible with you but possible for others, Patrick said and she laughed hitting him.

“Happy birthday ma, sorry I don’t have a gift for you, I slowly said.
“Its alright, at least you’re looking beautiful on my day that’s enough for me, she happily said and I just smiled and the lady returned with our orders.

After eating was when Mrs Eugene cut the cake and they made a video call with their father that night to watch the celebration,
“This Is beautiful and I wish I was able to attend, thanks for covering up for me son, their father said.
“You’re welcome dad, they said.

“I hope you have my gift ready? His wife asked.
“Sure my love, he replied.

“Which of the love o? Love dey here o, Patrick jokily said.
“You’re not serious, my darling wife of course, He replied and they laughed while I just watched a happy family.
It was very different from us over there, everyone is over serious and strict. If it’s not church programmes or activities, everyone go to your room and read! No family gathering or celebration at all. When will my father gather us this way to joke and laugh? I wondered.

We arrived home and I thanked them for the fun we had today,
“Its alright go rest your head for tomorrow will be a busy day. And ermm…. I’ll be traveling tomorrow, I have to go get my stuff so take care of the house till I get back. I’ll be leaving early though, Mrs Eugene said.
“No problem ma and safe journey. Good night, I said and left for my room.

The next morning just as she said, she left very early in the morning and it was just I and her sons at home.
“Hey, Patrick said stopping me when I wanted entering the corridor.
“Good morning, I greeted.

“Still mad at me? He asked.
“I don’t have the strength to be, I replied and walked away.

“Okay I’m sorry! He shouted.
“That’s alright, I said without looking back.

I returned from the shop that evening to make dinner when I saw Patrick going out making a call,
“Yes yes I dey road I dey come, he said passing me and I went in and saw Nosa in the sitting room. According to them he just graduated from the university and is awaiting his youth service because I was always wondering if he’s jobless or something.
“Good evening, I greeted but he just looked at me and concentrated on his phone.

I got to my room and changed up and returned to the kitchen to cook. Did I forget to tell you I cook everyday ever since Mr Eugene traveled? Suddenly everyone wants to eat fresh food and no more putting of food in the freezer anymore because there’s a maid chef at home and a time table was even drafted out for me. Most of the things I know how to cook, it was Prisca who taught me before she traveled, some times I wished she never did maybe I would have escaped.

I was blending the pepper when I noticed someone entered the kitchen and I turned to see Nosa by the door. I wanted asking if he is looking for something but i decided to keep quiet and concentrated on the blender until I noticed he was very close to me that I could hear him breathing on me.
When I turned he quickly held my face and vigorously kissed me as I struggled with him.

“What are you doing! I shouted using my surviving extra large skirt to clean my mouth when I got free from him.
“Sssshhhh don’t shout, I’m sorry okay, he said wanting to hold me again.

“Leave me alone, please just go, I said.
“This is my house Love. Common I accept I’ve been bad but I did all of that to chase my feelings for you away. I didn’t know what to do, do you understand? He asked taking my hand and I shifted from him.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about but please leave me alone, I replied but he held my waist and drew me close to himself.
“I promise from today I’ll treat you well okay. You won’t be doing all the stuff in the house, I’ll make sure all the clothes are returned to the dry cleaner and you’ll be free from some duties. In fact I will talk to my mother to start paying you if only you’ll be mine, he said.

“I don’t understand the be mine part, I said
“Just give yourself to me okay, have no fear I’ll take care of you, he said and I struggled to take his hand from my waist but he held me more tight.

“This is wrong please I don’t need all of that, I said to him.
“What are you scared of exactly? he asked.

“You want to get me pregnant right? You want to spoil me, I replied and he burst out laughing.
‘Love you’re so funny, are you fish that will get spoiled? Common don’t be this way, and about you getting pregnant it can’t happen alright because I will be very careful, he said and I shook my head.

“Your offers are enticing but am sorry I can’t accept this please leave me alone, I said.
“Don’t worry you’ll accept me, I promise you within one week you’ll be in my arms, he said and released me and left the kitchen.
I quickly used the sink to wash my mouth off from the saliva he deposited in my mouth,
“What kind of problem is this one na? I asked myself touching my neck very scared.
