3rd PERSON POV
Uzo stood fixated to the spot she stood staring back at Timi. She rubbed her sweaty palms on her jean nervously. She didn't know what to do or say but before she couldn't decide on that, Timi walked back into the house not sparing her a glance.
Uzo stared at the building before her in awe. She didn't get a clear view of the house the previous night but now in the light of the day, she was wowed by the mansion she was going to stay in for two weeks.
"Come in my dear" Mrs Adenuga said to her as a maid helped her with her luggage. She insisted to take them in herself but the maid was adamant so she just let her. "Eunice, show her to her room. I'll be back" Mrs Adenuga whom Uzo was examining said to the maid. The maid nodded and lead her up the stairs and Mrs Adenuga also went up the stairs though through the opposite staircase.
Mrs Adenuga walked into her son's room and sighted him typing away on his phone. "And what was that all about Jason?" She called him Jason when she was being serious. "What?" He feigned ignorance.
"Don't do this with me young man. You have to respect your guest and make her feel at home. Okay?"
"Okay mum"
"Now you will apologize to her"
"What?! I'm not doing that"
"Jason!"
"Okay, Okay. I will" He mumbled to his mum's hearing a frown making it's way to his face. She smiled at him and ruffled his hair. "Now that's my good boy" She smiled and her dimples came into view.
Uzo slumped on the king sized bed not wanting to get up and unpack her things. A heard faint knocks on the door and then "May I come in?"
"Yes" she answered from inside and the door opened revealing Mrs Adenuga. She took her time to take in her features. Her hair was just like Timi's only longer and more feminine. Her skin glowed too not even a spot on her so light skin. She smiled at Uzo and Uzo smiled back at her.
The dimples. She thought.
"My dear how are you?"
"I'm very well ma."
"What's your name?" Mrs Adenuga asked Uzo gesturing for her to sit down beside her on the bed.
Uzo sat. "I'm Uzo ma. Uzoamaka Edogo"
"That's beautiful. I'm Michelle Adenuga. Call me Michelle"
"Oh no! I can't" Uzo flushed. "Why not?" An amused Michelle asked. "Your an elder. I could call you auntie"
Michelle chuckled. "I'm not that old. But you can call me whatever you want dearie" She grinned, stood up and walked to the door. "Make yourself comfortable. If you need anything, you can ask me or any of the maids. Okay?"
"Okay Auntie" Uzo nodded at her with a smiled and she walked out of the room but not before throwing her a playful wink.
An epitome of beauty. Uzo thought.
"No surprise, Timi's this good looking" She muttered and smacked herself inwardly for that.
A vibration in her pocket made Uzo grab her phone. She had a caller. She picked the Call without checking the caller ID.
"Oh em gee!" Was the loud squeal that hit her ears. She pulled the phone away from her ears and was not surprised as the took a glance at her phone and Agatha's name written there.
"Agatha! Why are you shouting now?"
"Babes! You didn't tell me that you met baby tyga"
"What the—"Uzo was confused. Agatha squealed continuously riling Uzo up as she knew nothing about what Agatha was saying.
"Who's baby tyga?" She asked as soon as Agatha was done squealing.
"Don't tell me you don't know him" Agatha gasped.
"I don't. Now will you say something!" Uzo spouted curiosity getting the better of her.
"He's this teen celebrity on Instagram. He's into acting too and his tik tok is lit" Agatha said in between gasps.
"But I didn't meet anyone bearing that name" Uzo shrugged as she grabbed her box and started unpacking her things. "Yes you did. I saw you in a photo he posted and he put your IG handle too. Babes, your followers will increase like mad"
"I still don't get what is going on"
"Don't worry, I'll send the photo to you as soon as I end this call" Agatha said and ended the call.
Uzo switched on her mobile data and tons of messages came rushing in. She dropped her phone on the bed and quickly did all the unpacking. In no time , she was done and she picked up her phone and went to her WhatsApp. She immediately checked Agatha's thread and she did see a photo. It was a photo she took with Desmond after the party. Realization hit her almost immediately. Desmond is baby tyga. That explains why he looked so familiar.
She left WhatsApp and went to Instagram. She checked her profile and she gasped at the number of followers she had in less than two days. From 10k to 17.4k followers. She couldn't contain her excitement.
She immediately searched for baby tyga and clicked on it. Baby_tyga. And he was following her also. He had 94.7M followers. What the freaking hell!She followed back and sent him a direct message.
Me: Hey.
Baby_tyga: Hey!😁
He replied almost immediately. They talked on and on for what seemed like hours but in reality was only thirty minutes.
She got to know that he was indeed a teen celeb.
Baby_tyga: Yunno, I was surprised you didn't know me
He said during their conversation. They agreed to talk later on WhatsApp before Uzo turned off her mobile data. She dropped her phone on the beside lamp and straightened herself on the bed ready to drift into a deep but well deserved slumber. At least to pay for the good night rest she missed.
A girl needs her beauty sleep. She taught as she hugged a pillow really wishing it was her teddy bear instead.
She looked around the room painted purple. She wasn't a fan of purple but she didn't dislike the colour.
The room was really spacious. Huge Purple queen sized bed, dozens of pillows on the bed. Purple wardrobe, beside stand, dressing table. Everything in the room was practically purple. An adjoined bathroom with the interior purple. She felt like she was in Sofia's room from Sofia the first. The room looked like that of a princess. It didn't take her long to finally sleep.
She yawned one last time and her eyes went shut.
Timi knocked severally but he heard nothing so he went ahead and opened the door. He walked into the room taking quick yet gentle strides. Uzo was sleeping peacefully a small smile almost nonexistent on her lips.
His heart melted as he watched her. Her lips slightly parted and her breathing soft. His eyes lingered on her lips and it took all the discipline in him not to smash his lips on hers.
His mum had asked him to call Uzo down for lunch. Of course he didn't want to because he knew he would let his guard down once so close to her. Heck the next two weeks won't be easy for him as he would see her every single day.
He was still in his squatting position staring at Uzo's peaceful form contemplating whether to wake her or not. He decided he would wake her anyway. Her eyes flicked open as if on cue. Her eyes went from his face to his hands mid air.
She yawned and stretched still staring at him not knowing what to say. Timi got up and clenched his fist by his sides trying to resist every urge to gather her into his arms and kiss her everywhere.
"It's time for lunch, you are needed downstairs"
She nodded her head at him not able to get words out of her mouth. He was dressed in matching sweatpants and hoodie and his hair a sexy mess. She looked down at her foot avoiding his intense gaze.
"I'll be down in a minute" She said to him and he stepped out his face holding no sort of emotions.
The next two weeks us going to be a whole load of awkwardness. Uzo thought as she groaned.
She grabbed her phone from the beside table and checked the time. Three minutes past two. She made a mental note to call Adaku later and stepped out of the room closing the door behind her.
She took the flight of stairs downstairs and walked into the dining room. It wasn't hard to locate as she followed the sound of plates clicking. She met the maids serving the meal and she took her seat opposite Ayomide not missing the scowl she threw her way.
Loads and loads of awkwardness it is. She shook her head and exhaled.
There you have it, Chapter seventeen us out 💃💃💃
Short chapter, the next would be longer by God's grace. What do you think will happen now that Uzo is at the Adenuga's?
Awkwardness galore 😂
