Followed Patrick

"Hi dear" Patrick spoked to Tina as he finally approached her, although Patrick dressed casually but he was still looking handsome and hot while Tina turned as she wasn't expecting him to walked up to her first.

"Good afternoon" Tina greeted Patrick avoiding his.gazed while Patrick asked her, "What's going on here?. What's the celebration all about?."

Patrick drew a bit more closer to Tina as he.asked, but Tina shifted backwards a little because even as Patrick wasn't highly dressed, he was still looking very handsome and scented so nice and Tina didn't wanted to lose controlled of herself, if Patrick mistakenly touched her as she knew her legs would grew weakling and her friends, colleagues at work and also her parent were all around so she shifted backward away from Patrick as Patrick drew closer to her.

Patrick frowned noticing Tina was avoiding him and shifting away from him, so he stopped and asked, "Why're you shifting away?."

"Hmph, nothing" Tina replied as she stopped moving away, seeing Patrick too had also stopped coming closer.

"I was asking you before, what's the celebration here about and why're they many people here?" Patrick asked her again with a frown thinking it was her marriage introduction ceremony or something that as to do with marriage as Tina dressed so beautifully.

"Oh! It my son's birthday today. That's why, I invited them" Tina replied, staring away from Patrick as a friend of her called out to her to come.

"And you didn't invited me?" Patrick asked looking disappointed as he didn't even knew the day his son was born , and he didn't came with any gift.

"Am sorry, but I didn't remember too"

Tina apologised to him, fumbling with her fingers and biting on her lower lips.

"Or you didn't want to invite me?" Patrick asked staring directly at her face, and Tina replied quickly, "No, I sincerely forgot too, I have to go now."

"You forgot to invite me, knowing am his father yet you remember to invite all this people?" Patrick asked, almost sounding annoyed as he became angry and Tina noticed his annoyance as her heart ached and she didn't internationally didn't wanted to invited him.

She simply forgot too as she had the thought of telling him about it before but she forgot to mentioned it when she saw him, and she feared what he might did now that he looked annoyed, So Tina sighed and walked up to meet him and held his hand to calm him down.

Although Tina didn't knew that Patrick was not a drama type of guy, he hate embarrassment, so he inwardly swallowed his annoyance and wanted to walk away to go greet her parents since they could've seen him when he arrived but he to his surprised Tina quickly walked back to him and held his hand with her soft chubby hands, and he heard her apologizing to him again, "Am sorry. I honestly forgot too, is not like I didn't wanted to told you."

"Hmph, Is okay. Let me go inside first and greet your parents first" Patrick replied with a faint smile and he left Tina and went back to greeted Mama-Tina whom he saw first, and Mama-Tina was very happy to saw him and she thought happily that Tina had been the one who invited Patrick, As she was happy to saw them standing together and holding hands, and she assumed Tina was gradually making peace with her grandson's father.

Mama-Tina smiled happily and welcomed Patrick, while she spoked to him, "Am happy to see my daughter invited you and you came. Let me serve you some food and coming." Mama-Tina rushed back into their house to served Patrick his food as she had prepared a special meal expecting to saw him arrived and almost getting worried when Patrick hasn't yet arrived.

Patrick just gulped and smiled at Mama-Tina as he had never rejected her hospitality, he liked her and so he collected the tray of food from her hand and sat down with her and ate while they both chat.

Mama-Tina asked Patrick, "What of your family, mother and father sisters, I hope they're fine and very much alive, and that your beautiful melanin sister, Amanda?."

Patrick smiled hearing Mama-Tina inquires about his family and he liked that she was concerned about him and so he replied while eating the delicious meal Mama-Tina had served to him

"They're all fine, My sister want to come with me, but I told her to stayed back because she wouldn't want to let go of Godsent. My mom, she's fine and she has been asking me of Godsent too. They all want to see Tina and Godsent" Patrick replied amidst his mouth full of food.

Tina was already seeing off some of her friends off, whom came and brought gifts for Godsent and she stared back and saw Patrick chatting with her mother in front of their house and eating the special food her mother had specially prepared by herself.

Tina got jealous and eyed them while escorting her friends whom were already going and she wondered why her mother liked Patrick over Chris as her mother actually took her time to prepared the delicious food for Patrick.

Instead for her mother to hated Patrick for impregnating her daughter, there she was there smiling and welcoming Patrick.

Tina frowned staring at them while she escorted the last of her friends whom came.

"You can take Tina and her son to go see your people, They're Godsent people too you know" Mama-Tina replied as she smiled at Patrick whom seemed surprised by her response.

"But mama, Tina won't agree to come with me" Patrick replied almost thru with the delicious village food Mama-Tina had made for him.

"Tell her that I allow you go home with your son to go see his people and she will be left with no other choice than to follow you too."

Patrick laughed out hearing Mama-Tina's suggestion and he almost got choked on his remaining food as his laughter attracted Tina's attention whom wondered in disgust what her mother was telling Patrick that was making him to laughed out like that.

Tina frowned and went to carried Godsent from her brother, then she walked closer to where Patrick and her mother sat on the bench in front of their house chatting together and she asked her mother frowning at them.

"Mama, What are you telling him about?. I hope is not about me you both are laughing at?" Tina asked her mother frowning at them and Mama-Tina stared up at Tina as she smiled and replied, "As sieve you already know. I was just telling him that you can go home with him to see his people, besides they're Godsent people too."

"No mom!" Tina frowned.

"Mama am not going anywhere with him, if that's what you two are discussing about.. You shouldn't even be laughing or talking to him, for what he did to me" Tina said sadly but Mama-Tina quickly replied her, "Shut up Tina!. Clean your mouth and don't say such. Shouldn't you be happy a fine, handsome and well to do young man like Patrick, likes you. Am not happy about that, but it has already happened, so is to do the right thing that is left, since he likes you, then that settles it" Mama-Tina said.

"No Mama!.." Tina screamed out and wanted to went in but her mother caught her hand and stopped her instead, and Papa-Tina whom already heard Tina's screamed, came out to found out what was wrong?.

"Good afternoon sir" Patrick greeted Papa-Tina, whom was surprised to saw him eating, as Papa-Tina wondered, [Anytime this young man is around, Tina will always be screaming.]

"Welcome" Patrick finally answered to Patrick's greeting with a slight frown on his old yellow face.

"I hope is not because of you that's causing my daughter to scream?" Papa-Tina asked Patrick whom smiled at him and replied, "no papa, I don't know why she's screaming or what her mother told her that caused her too."

"Is okay, you are welcome" Papa-Tina turned to Tina and her mother and asked them, "What's the problem?."

"Papa.." Tina tried to spoke, but her mother immediately shut her up, "Shut up your mouth Tina."

Mama-Tina stopped Tina from taking to her father and Papa-Tina frowned at his wife, then Mama-Tina spoked to her husband instead, "Don't mind Tina, we were only discussing and she screamed out, it nothing serious."

"Hmm. Are you sure woman?" Papa-Tina asked with a raised brow and Mama-Tina replied him, "Yes.. and yes she will be going with Patrick to see his family today. To know if she will accept to marry him or not" Mama-Tina added but Tina immediately refused, "No Papa am not going anywhere."

Papa-Tina frowned and stared from his wife to Patrick and to Godsent, and back to Tina and he said, "Is okay Tina. I can understand you, but at least you should still try to go and see his people, to know where your son's father is from even if you don't want to marry him, atleast so when Godsent grows and ask you questions, you will be able to answer him."

"Hmm.." Tina didn't knew what to replied her father as she never anticipated going to Patrick village either, not even same day and she couldn't disrespected her both parents and she frowned and accepted to went with Patrick to his village, even though is against her wish.
