Chapter four

The welcoming party

JULY,2017
ASOKORO, ABUJA
NIGERIA

"you both are hexed" Hannah said as she opened the door for Amira and amir

"Well congratulations, we both are crossed twin" amir smirked at amirah to Hannah. Amira chuckled and Hannah rolled her eyes

"Where were you? Even" Hannah asked as they both walked pass her.

She followed them and say" hello! Am asking a question "

They both stopped, turned and look at her saying" No,tech-you ventured.." Amira hissed and they both moved to the red parlor to meet their punishment

Hannah knows better than to ask them any other thing again, she knows damn straight what Amira and Amir meant by what they said

"Mama " Amira started in her strong accent" we, we both know what we did isn't spot-on, we cop a plea, guilty I might add, and there upon we beseech you to curtail your penalty, it won't happen again, a promise " Amira finished looking down at the grey carpet

The mom smiled and looked up at them " but you know you have to be punished.."

Amir cuts in " punishment whatever for, we are sorry , undo the crossing and you will not have to bother again, set us free"  he looked at her deeply with pleading eyes

The mom shakes her head smiling " hmm, this is the part of yous that I like my twins, you are really good in speech when it comes to apology; sometimes I even wonder if you have ever attended any school of such, you just get into trouble and get out of it simply with your spoken words, I have to admit that am impressed. I will undo the crossing"  she paused and the twins looked up with smiling face

"However, there's something else " she smiled and they gulped down" am taking you's to summer school " 

"What!" They hollered, if there's one thing the twins hated it would definitely be going to summer school, they in their minds believe that summer is holiday, an opportunity to be free from your pen and all those school stuffs not another entirely  lesson curriculum but their mother has other plans otherwise

"Yes, fahad and hadiza will be back  tomorrow, together you will go to kaduna on the same tomorrow. I think that you have to learn and know what Nigeria is for your actions lately aren't Nigerian material "

"But mother, we may perhaps still learn it here in Abuja right "

"Abuja isn't the best place for learning -and when I say learning I do hope you know what I mean by that. Now go get ready for the party "With that they left the red parlor

,

"K-adu-na, I can't even pronounce the word properly " Amira said with a tone sadness in her voice , adnan glared at her, she smiled " okay maybe I can "

"I think we should get ready for the bloody party before we get into another trouble "adnan stormed out to his room

Amir , Amira and adnan took off to change for the party , after the boys pairing shirts for there trousers and the girls with their maxi gowns, they were sent to their cousins' house where the party is held in Asokoro, Abuja.

They reached to the golden glass gate of a mansion house, no lie- they all knew what fortune the house gain

"Well there's no way i could repeat my words here " Amir said

"What word?" Abdallah asked

"The 'middle classified ' statement am I right " Amira said and they all laughed including the adnan that had pulled a face

"Well let's get out of here and celebrate our last day in Abuja, well not last actually. Anyway shall we " with that they left all went out to meet the crowd formed at the back courtyard

They froze "k, I wasn't expecting that " ha! The semi-Nigerians never thought of encountering such houses in Nigeria , their guesses -Nigeria is well a wealthy country perhaps -

The courtyard of which they have been staring at was beautifully decorated although that wasn't what caught their attention, they were bolt from the blue to see the population of the people attending their so called 'Welcoming Party'

"Bout fifty Nigerians are in there and we are expected to go in there and act like the Nigerians our own mother wants us to be and then call it a day " Amira said that with disinterested look masked on her face

"Well yea, no shit Sherlock " Adnan says and moved inside, all hoping that they would make it before the night ends, at least they have the Aliyu Alkali's to help them get through their upcoming disaster

They found a spot of four chair at a corner and sat staring at the people with plain expressions as if bamboozled- they went into the deja vu stage- .

Soon enough, as all of them got in there deep thoughts, a lady in her mid forties wearing a black with golden touches abaya approached them and brought them out of their thoughts and says

"Sannunku, wurin fatima kuka zo " okay, if that woman was expecting a reply from them, then she was wrong, that only earned her gawp from them, she wrinkled her faces and raises one of her brows in question...deeply she knows the people sitting before her look awfully familiar although she wasn't sure , well that's what you get for living away from family

"Err...we are the Ibrahim Alkali's , sorry we don't twig in, um...not familiar with your language and um..." before adnan who gathered all his courage to speak finishes, she interrupted him with a rather bigger grin along with an excitement voice coming out of her mouths as she speaks

"You decided to hide her instead of coming into the house and ask for me, me your aunt Fatima who longed to see you, I must admit am pretty mad at you, where's your mum? Come with me and introduce you to everyone, after all the party's hosted for you's all alone "

A.fatima turned and looks at abdallah " from one look at your pretty cute face I knew I knew you somewhere, say you got your fathers look-my brother I might add"

Nigerians are Nigerians, be it rich or poor, they are Nigerians and somehow ,deeply they got amazed by how they are...
