In his room, staring at his wife's picture
"I miss you so much".
"This house is so boring, gosh".
"Oh really!".
"Weird ghost, now what do you want?".
"Walk with me".
"Wait what!".
Out in the street.
"This is weird". Mr. Dunne said, plugged in his earpiece.
"Now you can talk to me".
"What is this place?".
"Wait for it".
The girls came out one after the other without their scalp. He was surprised and amazed when he saw them, same thing for the girls. He turned back and look at the ghost, and she whispered.... "Use your conscience". Disappear.
Took a deep breath. "You guys leave here? wow!" they nodded. "you all should come with me". Sounds weird.
"Mm, the last time I check, we don't know you, so...". Saucy said
"Yeah... 'bout that, we would get to know each other".
"You're a grown ass man; you should look for a grown ass woman. We aren't coming with you". She added
"Okay, that's rude, but trust me am no harm". .... She finds that funny, but still didn't laugh.
"let's just give it a try, he looks harmless". Anita added
"And beside am hungry". Juliana added.
"Fine, we would come with you".
"No need for that, just leave them here, walk with me"
"Whatever!"
Arrived at his house, smiled at him "good job". They entered inside
"Wow! Now this is a house". Was about to sit on the sofa, with that look.
"What do you think you are doing?".
"Nothing, nothing".
"So, girls, this is your home".
"Are you serious, ooh we don't want your wife to cut our head off".
"No worries, she's overseas".
"So that means she doesn't live here with you".
"So... make yourself comfortable okay! I'll be right back".
He entered his room, shut the door, took a deep breath. Ghost appears.
"Aah!".
"Why are you so scared? Am not going to eat you".
"Well ghost lady, I have done good charity, by bringing those.... very beautiful girls. How did you find them, I mean...".
"Just shut up, your charity is just beginning. First you would move to a bigger house".
"What!".
"Yess! And... you would sponsor, their schooling". He chuckles.
"You are a very funny ghost, you know that right, very funny. Me!".
"Well, you would. And for the house, be quick. The person who killed their last guardian would kill you to".
"What,! So a killer is looking for them, why?".
"Because am protecting them, shut up and stop asking questions, get the house and I would fortify it". Before he could ask another question, she disappeared.
"Damn!". He left his room.
"His back". Emma said.
"So, sir what do you want us to do for you?.
Doorbell rings.
"Come in".
"Oh, my it's your wife".
"Calm down, this is my maid".
"Okay, shake it off".
"Christine, I want you to get them something of their size, Christine!". He yelled
"Sir! A-am sorry, sir. Where, a-am amazed, they are beautiful".
"Yeah, they are, now stop staring, go to the mall and get them something nice".
"Can one of us come with you, I mean, so you don't buy something that won't fit us". Meyan said.
"Okay, its fine". They left.
.... Two days later they moved to a bigger apartment.
"This man is nice, right Pricilla?".
"Yep, he sure is".
"Good night"
"Good night". Light out.
Two months later...
"Hey Havana". Mena said.
"Am so happy. Finally, you all of you are back from rehab, I missed you".
Doorbell rings.
"Who is there?". Stella walked in.
"Guys, you would not believe this".
"What? They said unison.
"Well, the boys are finally back".
"Wow! Such great news, this is splendid". Havana said in so much excitement
"Am happy". Mena added.
"You should be".
Just step out of the bath tub, right in front of him
"Seriously, no privacy".
"Just shut up and listen good".
"Here comes her warning, now what?".
"Come with me".
"Well give me time to change".
"You don't have time for that". They both disappeared.
.... Appears right in the middle of the school
"Seriously, why don't you to want to RIP, why?
"I believe you know this school"
"MINDERBURG HIGH wait! Don't tell me that you want me to take all 17 of them to this school, cause that, it ain't gonna be possible".
"Well, it better be".
"You would reck me dry, I would turn to a church rat".
"The last time I checked, you were never sacked".
"Wow! You would finish all my life savings".
"Well admission starts tomorrow. so do the needful". she disappears.
"Wait shit, she left".
Waiting for their arrival.
"Am so so tensed, my hands are sweaty". Barbara said.
"They are here". Maids said unisons.
Turn around, walked in.
"O.M.G, my beautiful baby". mothers rushed to hugged their son.
"My baby, you've grownup so well".
"Yes mommy, we have". Richard said, staring at Mena as she shed tears.
Immediately they all rushed to her and hugged her.
"I missed you".
"Stop crying mom, we missed you too".
"You change over the years, I think I came visiting last 2years, you are so, so, so..."
"Don't bother, not bad yourself, am here for you, you won't go back to rehab okay, you would stay here with all of us, all of you".
Kissed her hands, and hugged her tightly. After exchanging pleasantries, they all had dinner, as one big happy family.
"So how was Australia?" Elena asked.
"It was full of heart breaks". David said.
"Ooh, interesting" Mena and Havana said at once.
"We don't want to talk about it". Brandon added.
"But we decided that we would be gay".
"What! Ehew, not in this family".
"Told you they would have a problem with that". Jackson whispered.
Two weeks later.
.....Out in the garden.
"Girls, there you are. You are going to school".
"We know".
"Tomorrow".
"What! tomorrow, that's so early. But anyway, thank you so much".
"But wait, Anita needs glasses".
"Why!".
"Short sight, well in case, she goes blind, silly me, she can't see properly".
"Okay, fine then, let's go get you glasses".
"i want contact lens blue, like Juliana's eyes".
"Shut up, just get her glasses". Saucy added.
Up in the balcony, watching them from up there.
"Must they really go to that school, I mean, that school is meant for rich kids, with class, you know, they don't wear cheap things there, if any one finds out that they are in fact, popper's, their life is over, for kids who doesn't even know their surname". observed her for a while.
"Why ain't you saying anything? Am right, that school, is more like paradise, I wonder how many years it took them to build that school. I would have enrolled them in a better school, that is cheaper"
"I know why I said it must be that school okay".
"Okay. You know, we've been friends for months now, so can you tell me your name so I can stop calling you demanding ghost".
"My name is Zyron; we were all Zyron". She disappeared.
