Chap 8

"Never Mind, tell me why was Bernard begging?" she asked this time her focus on the highway.

"He was asking for forgiveness"

"ohwk! I really wanna go on a night party!"

OH REALLY! LATER SHE'D ACT LIKE I WAS THE BADDEST BADDIE AMONGST THE BOTH OF US!

"Concentrate and drive!" I yelled.

"you're such a boring celeb!" she said, giving me a wink.

"not now, I'm not boring... I'm being too simple, economically wise or conscious and...."

"you? simple? where's the simplicity? our most extravagant queen! all hail!" she said, her left hand on the steering while the right on her ponytail.

"Thank Goodness! you said it all!" I said with a sly grin.

"Whatever!" she muttered.

We arrived at my house and I showered within five minutes and took our planned clothing and my makeup and accessories bag... we hurriedly went to the car and we drive to Ann's house. we arrived to her house, her mom was home... we exchanged pleasantries. Ann dragged me to her room where we got changed, wore our makeup and wore my favorite hair clips on my large curly afro hair.same with Ann though she was on a green hair clips while mine were of different colors.

"Mom We'll be back!" Ann screamed, giving her mom a kiss on the cheek.

"Be home on time doll! Musa, Dan, Kelvin and Jasper will all go with you!" Mrs Katherine howled ascending the stairs.

"Not as drivers mom! I'm driving myself! they'll accompany me as guards!" she yelled.

" Whatever!"

We ran out of the building to the parking spot with all the guards stationed round the car.

"Hey, get into the car!" Ann snapped, pointing the car keys to the guards.

"Yes.. Ma'am!"

We drove out of the building to the highway and not before long we arrived. Ann parked her car at the parking spot and we alighted. we walked to the entrance and as best friends, we took lots of best friends poses and you know fans would stop by to take a glance and within minutes fans were surrounding us and they all were like:

"Can we take a picture singer Zizi Kora?"

"please one shot!"

"just a pic!"

"Anny please!"

"Zizi!"

NOT AGAIN, NOW MY FANS WERE ALL GONNA RUIN MY DAY WITH MY BEST FRIEND! WEE COULDN'T TAKE A PICTURE IN PEACE!

"Move! move!" the guards ordered.

The Guards pushed the crowd away from us so as for us to make it safely into the mall.. finally, we were safely brought into the mall.we took lots of pictures and as usually we told the apparel section manager that we'd like to shop alone... of which he granted us permission..I mean, as a celebrity's daughter and a celebrity herself.

We bought lots of matching outfits fit Ohio.

We Bought lots of chocolates.

We bought lots of shoes,

We bought lots of bags,

We bought lots of makeup items,

And finally, I bought myself fancy hair clip.

"Zikora! its 6:30pm we should be leaving" she said, licking, eating or biting on(whatever) her vanilla ice cream.

"Oh God..... 15 missed calls!"

"from?"

"Don't ask me that.. you know..."

"Bernard!" she interrupted.

"no!"

"Mom!"

"yes and?"

"dad!"

"no!"

"who then?"

"Mom, your mom, Zimba, Bernard and..."

"hey, but I said Bernard!" she snapped.

"owwwu, just shut that trap up and drive me home!"

"Don't You dare order me around!"

"then,I guess...I won't do what you asked me to do in Ohio!"

"you're blackmailing me?"

"My Only option...."

We jumped into the car ready to move.we all wore our seat belt. Ann ignited the engine and we were all set to go. we drive all the way to bijoux mall when gbam!

Guess What?

The Car broke down!

Its 7pm, ohwu... Mon won't be happy if it clocks 7:30pm.

"Kelvin!" Ann barked.

"Yes.. Ma'am!"

"Which car am I driving?"

WAIT O! SHE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THE CAR SHE CAME WITH... ITS NOT LIKE IT'S THE GUARDS FAULT! WHY IS SHE SCREAMING AT THE CUTE GUARDS!

"Honda! Ma'am" he answerer.

"but you know its faulty!" she screamed like an insane woman.

"Thought you wanted to...."

"just shut up and call the engineer!"

"ok!"

And now what?

It was getting late! and mom says its dangerous for a celebrity to roam about by nighttime.

"Hey, I'm getting scared!" I whispered, my legs on the car seat.

"Just shut up!"

"We might get kidnapped!"

"Just shut up!"

"Or even get killed."

"Don't talk!"

"I'll talk, you fool!"

She only rolled her eyes.

"Think we should take a taxi or cab, or call those Uber drivers" I suggested.

"We got strong men here, so chill!" she said, ting to calm me down.

OH, ZIKORA CALM DOWN!

My phone rang it was Mom.

"Hey,spoilt brat.. where the hell are you?"

"Mom, I'm in front of bijoux mall....."

"Hello! Hello!"

"Hello! can you hear me?"

"there are noises in your background."

"Mom, I'm in bijoux..."

"hello! Zikora!"

The call ended.

HEY, HOW WOULD I CALL MOM?

"Relax, chill!" Ann said, holding my hands tightly.

Well, I felt a kinda relieved though. that was so thoughtful of her.Seems it was drizzling. now how on earth was the mechanical engineer gonna arrive here on time.

AND WHAT THE FRIED TOMATO!

It was 7:45pm.

It was beginning to rain heavily. we had to run into a big semi-detached house for shelter. I balled my fist as I knocked twice on the door. I was about to knock for the third time when suddenly the door was jerked open and...

"you?" the voice exclaimed, shock laced in the voice.

"you live here?" I asked, roving my eyes round the building.

"Hey, sweetie who's at the door?" a voice from the inside yelled.

"My Classmate!" he said, saying at me or maybe us.

"Then let them in!" the voice screamed.

"Hey, come in!" he said.

"Thank You!" I and Ann said in unison.

The Interior was magnificent.... so luxurious!

So! So! magnificent....

"Hey, sit down!" Fred said with a broad smile.

"Thank You!" I said with a small smile.

There Was like about 15 minutes silence. then my gaze feel on a pear shaped figure descend the stairs.

Wow!
