once she got to the entrance to the schools gate,she gave a honk,the school watch man noticed her and recognized their employee car, immediately opened the gate.

On getting into the school premise she parked and got blackey out, locking the car,she walked straight to heavens class. The Grand children international schools,the school had branches all over the world and the best in all of the west Indies.

The surroundings are large enough to entertain at least five million people at a go,the atmosphere it exhibits was clean,glassy and pure,it ensures the soul craves more with it's undiluted purity.

It has a large playground for kindergartens and the teens playground as well,the best student in every activities both sport and academic levels round the state came from the school and the owner of the school was none other than Hannah Rhoda, Rhodes.

The moment the teacher sighted her they came to greet her and she greeted them as well,

since she had told heaven to stay in her class slways,if no one came to pick her,she headed straight to her class ,she saw heaven in her class with a boy obviously her mate reading together.

when heaven caught sight of her second mother ( God mother), she ran to meet her, Hannah saw her expression her heart melted again as she kneeled to meet heaven height, hugging her back and lifted her up "how was your class today" she asked her God daughter who was beaming with pleasure "good"heaven replied," how was work today aunt" heaven asked cutely".

"Good too and who is that boy you're reading with, what are you guys reading" Hannah asked curiously. "Auuunt Hannahh" heaven sressed her God mother's name, rolling her eyes at her aunt, making her Know she as been caught doing something silly, The girl was just too smart for her age, Hannah thought.

"Remember the book you gave me" the Queen's premier to aid my spelling I decided to share it with Michael, my best friend, since I didn't see anyone coming to pick me yet heaven replied her aunt.

"oh, I see" Michael dear why don't you come and greet your best friend second mom" Hannah called the boy who sat there watching the mother and daughter, who seems to take his eyes away anything Hannah looked at him he must be shy Hannah thought.

once the boy heard her calling him he quickly sprang to his feet and came to meet Hannah standing beside her. Hannah lovingly stroked him on his head and hugged him as well, he is so handsome " has anyone ever told you how handsome you are" she smiled lovingly at the boy, smiling shyly " heaven did and my father most times" he replied " seems my baby as drawn a liking to this boy "Hannah thought as she smiled.

" Blackey" , heaven who had not noticed the dog suddenly saw him And left Hannah's hand to hug the dog.

Hannah overlooked heavens reaction and asked the boy before him ,she realized he didn't mention his mum when she asked him a question earlier.

Her spirit warned her not to yield into her curiousity,but a judges curiosity can never be ignored.

"What of your mum"she asked finally and she regretted immediately giving her her subconsciousness a knock,the moment Michael's sweet face turned gloomy at the mention of his mum.

"I'm sorry"she thought of what she could do to make him happy,a thought suddenly popped into her mind.Her eyes got lit at her thought.

she did not think twice when she blurted her thoughts out"your can call me Mum "she immediately said without realizing the nonsense she had spouted out and the hope she had ignited in the little boys heart.

"Really"The gloomy and darkness in the boys eyes had faded as he asked Hannah cheerfully,like a kid that has been offered his favorite treat.

"yes"she replied smiling at him

"Heaven,lets get going,your papas around and remember you are sleeping over in My home and we are going somewhere remember"she faced heaven who was engrossed in her own doggy and human world.

"ok aunt,but what about Micheal,we can't just leave him right,momma,you said we should always help those we have the capacity to,right?"heaven usually called her aunt Hannah momma whenever she wanted something badly,Hannah was however shocked by her friends daughter acting all caring because of about she didn't know,she frowned a bit at her,but Heaven had gotten her roped by her own words.

she was suddenly tired,but she couldn't bring herself to succumb to Heavens plan,she is a judge afterall the best,the will to fight was in her,it always has been,but how silly would she feel fighting again a five year old girl she held dearly in heart.

"Heaven we can't, Michael's dad might come for him"she replied really tired now.

"But momma,the teacher had called him he said he's busy,so he has to take a bus"heaven persistently,insisted.

Heavens word gave Hannah a shock,she knew Hannah would not lie,but she had to listen from the horses mouth.

"is that true Mike"she asked this time asking Micheal directly.

"Yes,Mom"he replied.

Instead of dwelling on the information she had just retrieved, Micheal calling her mum sent shivers to her spine, a tingle in her heart and a smile on her lips , Heaven has always been the only who has ever called her mom.

'Mom,since when was i his mom,

"since when you told him"her inner mind hissed at her replying her 'holy Christ!',she exclaimed in her mind,she could not bring herself to reject it now,not after noticing the delight in the young boys eyes,when he called her mom,her heart skipped a bit.
