"Sweetie some people are here to see you." My mum's voice halted my movements going over to the bed to take a nap.

I inwardly groaned.

I just got back from Derrick's house some hours ago, and the journey to get back home was so hectic. I was in traffic for over an hour, I got home exhausted and drained and just decided to rest. Now I guests.

Who is even here to see me?

I wore my flip-flops and lazily made my way towards the door, turned the doorknob and made my way downstairs.

I took lazy strides to the living room, and found my mum at the door which was slightly opened with a smile on her face.

Okay what is going on? I asked myself as moved further into the living room, with my flip-flops resounding on the tiles.

"Mum what's going on?" I took a peek at the door to catch a glimpse of the person there, but I couldn't cause of my mum's figure.

"Who is here to see me?" I asked, but she keeps on giving me this creepy smile.

"Mummy isi gini?" I asked getting creeped out by the prolonged smile on her face.

My mum cleared her throat, before she shifted her figure from the door so I can have a good look at the people who are the door.

My gaze landed on Flora and Florence who had matching tracksuits on, except Flora's clothing is lilac and Florence had on a brightish yellow. The tracksuit was a pair of joggers and a hoodie.

I let my gaze lower down to find a big bag in Flora's hold.

Okay what is going on? And how did they find out where I lived?

"You didn't tell me you made new friends." My mum stated with a disappointed look etched on her features.

"They aren't my-"

I was about to say something, but the side eye Flora gave me was enough for me to hold back my words.

"So you want to deny me abi? How could you?" Flora feigned hurt and shock as she put her right hand on her chest dramatically.

"Why are you guys here?" I queried, but the Flora looked at me like I've grown two heads.

"You have to be joking, so you don't remember what today is?" Florence chirped in for the first since she got here.

"I really don't know what today is?" I sincerely say.

"Well, this was all good but I have to leave. I know this was a bad idea." Florence scoffed before turning towards the door, but Flora quickly grabbed her by the hand to restrict her movements.

"Today is the day of the sleepover, how could you forget?" Flora had a disappointed look on her face.

Realization instantly hit me, today was the day of the sleepover. I exhaled as I looked at them. Flora had a sad look while Florence had a staid expression on her face.

Flora's frown soon turned into a smile, as she gave a dismissive wave of her hand as if my forgetfulness meant nothing. Her change of demeanour unsettled me, so I opened my mouth to apologize but Flora raised her hand indicating stop.

"Its no problem, we all tend to forget sometimes, right Florence?" Florence gave an half shrug as she played with her fingers.

Hem Hem.

My mum faked a cough alerting us of her presence, that's when I remembered she has been standing here this whole time, how much did she hear? Who am I kidding she did hear everything.

"You girls can go upstairs now, there are some snacks in the fridge, if you need anything just let me know." My mum said not before giving us that creepy smile, as she went upstairs.

"You're mum is kinda cool," Flora muttered beside me. I nodded.

"Hey guys sorry I'm late," a familiar voice resounded as the door banged opened.

Zainab was at the door panting heavily with both hands on her knees as she tried to catch her breath.

"Who invited this one now?" I heard Florence mutter beside me with a voice of disdain.

"You aren't late anything joor, come let's go." Flora made way to grab Zainabs' hand and they started walking towards the staircase, I looked over at Florence and saw her glaring at them, Zainab especially.

This sleepover might end well.

✴✴✴✴✴

The time was currently 8:30pm and we were all in my room. Unavailable by Davido was blasting through the speakers of Flora's mini speaker. Flora and Zainab were at a corner doing a tiktok video while Florence was typing on her phone. I didn't miss the series of glares Florence has been giving Zainab ever since she got here.

It made me think if they have any beef going on between them. Then I remembered how Victor hugged Florence and how he was also comforting Zainab. Could this be the reason for their beef?

"Its time for twenty questions!!!" Flora sing-songed as she made her way towards my bed.

"So, the rules of the game are simple just answer the question you are asked."

"What if its about personal issues?" Zainab queried quite nervously.

"Just say you don't want to play the game haba," Florence said.

Flora gave her a look while Florence rolled here eyes as she continued typing on her phone.

Her eyes may fall out anytime soon with the way she keeps on rolling them.

"You can always shut up if you have nothing reasonable to say," Zainab fired back with a calm expression imprinted on her features.

"I know its not me you're talking to like that." Florence said glaring at her while Zainab glared at her to.

"Okay that's enough." Flora tried to interject but Florence dismissed her.

"Why did you invite her, knowing that she's going to be a party pooper like always." Florence sneered.

"Florence this isn't necessary, behave yourself!" Flora commanded with a stoic expression, I don't think I've ever seen her with this type of expression on. And oh boy was it scary.

Florence hesitated for a while before she sat down on the bed nonchalantly, as if she didn't cause a scene just now.

"Now, why don't we begin." Flora's angry face was replaced with a sweet smile.

"Okay...," she trailed off, maybe looking for a perfect question. "But we can't start this game without snacks."

She skipped to the table were the snacks where arranged and took some chips and munch it.

"So Sonia, I heard you lived in Lagos three years ago before you translocated to Abuja. And why is so?" She queried me while munching on her munch it.

"My mum got a new job here, so we had to move." I say, leaving out the part of my dad being a thief and we couldn't take the shame so we had to leave.

"What about your dad?" Florence asked with a skeptical look.

"You know, three years ago in Lagos there was this news trending about a man who scammed and stole funds of the residents and funny enough after his arrest his wife and daughter left Lagos. His surname also starts with Ubong." She stated with a stern almost scary face.

My hands were starting to tremble. How did she know all this?

"W-what are yo-u trying to imply?" I stuttered as I tried to keep a straight face although I was about to have an hear attack.

She chuckled bitterly as she looked at me.

"You know three years ago, in Royal Fountain Children's hospital which was located in Ikeja a lot of children died. Do you know why?" I nodded my head signifying no.

"We could have saved the children but that piece of shit of a father you got killed all those innocent children." She stated point-blankly.

"Florence please don't do this." Flora tried to interfere but she wasn't having it.

I looked at Flora, does she know about my dad too?

"I'm tired of pretending when everything about her is wrong, how can she even sleep at night knowing children are in the grave crying cause of her father."

"There is no need for this, you promised to let go." Flora cried out.

"I'M NOT LETTING ANYTHING GO, I'M GONNA HAVE MY REVENGE!!!" She bellowed causing me to jerk in fear.

"The money we gathered to treat the children, your dad took all of it. HE USED THE MONEY FOR HIS BUSINESS AND TO FEED YOU GUYS... MONEY MEANT FOR THE CHILDREN, IS IT FAIR!?" She yelled at my face while I tried to fight back the tears forming in my eyelids.

"ANSWER ME!" She yelled again.

"No it's not fair." I yelled back as I let the tears pour freely from my eyes.

"I promised that I'll do anything for the justice of the children. And if eliminating you is what I have to do then. I'll. do. it!" She spelt each word for me with a deadly tone before storming off.

I watched as she left and at that moment all the energy was drained from my body.

Its happening again.

This can't be.
