"oh Amanda, that girl wise o, see how she just collect money from her dad. I will do my daddy like that too o"Praise quickly changed the topic. Amanda smiled at Praise, then went to hug Fabian. She kissed him on the cheek,...

"welcome "she said, and smiled, before they part ways.

" you hair is fine"he smiled, then touched her hair.

" ahh" she pretends to be in pain.

" sorry " he apologized.

" why are you here, this early? " she asked.

" the time is already 10am, do you want me to come in the afternoon? "

" yes " she replied.

" if I had come in the afternoon, I won't have enough time to spend with you " Fabian cried out. Celina just smiled.

" where are your brothers? " he asked as he was using his eyes to search for them in the living room.

" why are you asking? "

"wait o, you will not allow me to enter the house?, or you want me to stand here to talk? "

" enter"Amanda said and left the way.

" oya, where are your brothers? " he asked again.

" why you dey ask oooo" Amanda yelled clapping her hands.

" I wan greet them" he replied.

" they are all in Kelvin's room " she replied.

" Kelvin" Praise called. Fabian then went to the room to meet them.

" I'm going " Praise said then stood up.

" bye bye " Amanda waved. Praise was going to the direction of Kelvin's room, when Amanda hold her hand...

" where are you going? " Amanda asked.

" I'm going to the toilet " Amanda said pointing at the guest toilet.

" I'm going to the one in your room " She said.

" my room is this direction " Amanda said as she pointed at the left corridor.

" oh? " she said confused.

" you're lying, you're going to Kelvin's room" she yelled.

" shhh shhh " Praise put one finger in front of her own mouth.

" I want to just see " she smiled.

" liar, you want to go there, and you feel like resting your head on his shoulder, kissing him, resting your head on his lap, and doing other stuff " Amanda yelled at her.

yeah" she said in a sad voice.

" I know you like my brother, but you can't keep on leaving me anytime you see my brother, which is everytime you come here. it's like, I've lost my best friend, to my brother "Amanda said in a low tone.

" I'm sorry that I make you feel like this. It's just that, I want to make him like me" Praise said.

" I know " Amanda nod.

" don't worry, I won't leave you again for your brother, like before. I will make time for you, as well as for your brother " Praise smiled.

After Amanda had spent time with both Fabian and Praise, they left that evening. Later, Kelvin called the other three, and they went to his room. He was so happy, and excited to tell them the news.

" she said yes " he yelled happily.

"Praise? but she was with me today, why didn't she tell me? " Amanda asked excited.

" yes, and you guys were acting as if you don't even care for each other " Samuel said.

"wait, you were with Praise? " Kelvin asked confused.

" yes, she just left this evening " Amanda replied.

" but that is your Praise" He said. The smile on everyone's face flew away, even Kelvin's own.

" which Praise are you talking about?" Samuel asked confused.

" Yoma ( tribe: urohbo, full name : Erhimeyoma, meaning : my guardian spirit ( God ) is good )" Kelvin replied.

" then why were you saying Praise? " Amanda yelled angrily.

" her English is Praise, I thought you guys know" Kelvin explained.

" Yoma really come here alot after Praise. She always goes straight to you. They both have things in common " Anthony said as he thought.

" you thought I was talking about Amanda's Praise? "

Kelvin asked.

" yes " the other three yelled.

" she likes you " Samuel yelled.

" I didn't know " Kelvin yelled back.

" how can you say you didn't know, when it was very obvious " Anthony yelled.

" I have been on the phone with Time, that I didn't notice " he cooled down.

" so you didn't notice Praise, when she was always close to you? " Anthony yelled.

" oh God " Samuel hit his own forehead.

" stop yelling, I like Yoma, and not Praise " Kelvin said with a low tone.

" you are right, we can't do anything. But to say the truth, I'm still happy for you " Samuel smiled.

" me too " Anthony smiled, the the three of them hugged each other. As they part bodies, they stared at Amanda, who was still sad.

" Amanda? " Kelvin called. But Amanda walked out of the room.

" Aman, wait " Kelvin followed her.
