The next morning Christiana was woken up with her phone ringing and it was her mom calling,
“Hello mommy, good morning, she picked and sat up.
“Morning darling, I noticed you’re not calling or bothered about me Christiana, Jendy said and Christy smiled.

“Why do you say so mommy? You know I’m working now so I don’t really have much time anymore. So how are you doing? Christy asked.
“I’m fine just missing you so much, she replied and Christy laughed.

“Mom I was thinking, can I visit you since its weekend then come back on Sunday, Christy said.
“That will be great, but is it okay with you? Jendy asked.

“Why not? I’ll call you back okay, Christy said when Bale walked in and Jendy happily dropped the call.
“Good morning Bale, she greeted.

“Morning Christy, are you going somewhere? Bale asked.
“Yes, my mom just called and I was thinking if I could spend the weekend with her, she replied.

“Christiana did I do anything wrong? Why are you going away? He asked.
“No I’m not going, I just want to see her, I’m missing her already. I’ll be back tomorrow, she replied and he took her hand.

“Are you sure about that? He asked and she nodded.
“I won’t stop you then, just know you are welcome to stay here for as long as you want, he said.

“Ermmm I want you know that is not in my person to stay with a guy, I’m only staying here because I have no where else to go but as soon as I’ll gather up some money from my salary, I’ll be out of here for this is wrong, she said and he smiled.
“Are we doing anything wrong? He asked.

“Even so, its not right, I shouldn’t be your responsibility and I don’t know how my mom will take it when she found out I’m staying with a guy, she replied and Bale heaved.
“Christy I understand you perfectly well but please it shouldn’t be what you think. You said it yourself you don’t have anybody here wont it be right you stay with someone who will protect you? He asked and she heaved.

“I appreciate but I’m scared I might not be able to pay back for all the kindness you’ve shown me, it’ll be too much for me, she said and Bale laughed.
“Come let’s eat, you know you have a journey ahead of you, he said.

“You cooked again? She asked.
“No I ordered for it, he replied dr.agging her from the bed…………

Regina woke up and noticed Mukasa has already left the house. She went to the kitchen and saw a pot of noodles and she covered it back.
She went back to her room and saw the heap of dirty clothes and there were no clean clothes for her to change up to.

She checked and saw there was no soap for her to use either, she sat down sadly looking at the clothes.
“But I won’t have anything else to wear, she said and took the clothes to the bathroom and washed them as she could without soap and spread them outside.

She returned and began to sweep the house and a girl of about her age met her outside parking the dirt’s,
“I saw your dad leaving this morning, she said.
“Yes he left very early, Regina replied.

“So let’s play, she said.
“Sorry my dad asked me not to go outside, Regina said.

“Okay can I come play here? She asked and Regina slowly nodded.
“I’m coming, she said and left and Regina slowly left to throw the dirt.

The girl came back to play with Regina, but Regina wasn’t a child that could play because Cynthia and Mukasa made sure she couldn’t go out to mingle with the kids outside.
The girl was bored already and decided to play spellings with her.

“Okay can we spell? Let’s see who is more intelligent, the girl said and Regina almost urinated where she sat.
“Good game but my dad will soon be back, please start going else he’ll meet you, Regina said.

“Is that so? Okay bye, the girl said and left and Regina quickly locked the door behind her.

She took her school bag and saw the heap of assignments she couldn’t do, knowing her teacher is so angry with her now, she was so scared to go to school on Monday without doing them.

She took her pencil and began writing whatever entered her head, though she knew it was all wrong but she had to submit her book on Monday.
She looked at the mess she did on her book and began to cry in advance for her beatings on Monday from her madam…………

“If so we can go together, I also want to see them, Pius said.

“No I want to go alone, what do you think i want to do there? She asked.
“Okay okay its fine, Pius said when he saw the tone in her voice and Achen got up and left for the bathroom.

Immediately his phone began to ring and he shook his head when he saw who was calling.
The call ended and it rang again,
“Won’t you pick up your call? Achen asked inside and Pius rolled his eyes.

“Its not important, he replied and dropped the call and Achen was breathing hard inside when she knew who was that.
