Chapter 86
"When would you like to move?", my dad asked looking a bit serious this time. I don't really have an idea about the exact time I would like to leave but let me just make it next tomorrow then, I need to inform my friends and see them for the last time before I zoom off to Nigeria. "Let's just say next tomorrow, that would be a good time to leave or what do you think?", I asked. "It's sounds good to me, I would prepare all your documents and the things you will need for your journey, welcome back my boy", he replied and squeezed my hair like his little baby.
I know he is so full of joy that I'm finally agreeing to his terms and planning out things with him. "No problem daddy, let me go and catch some sleep", I replied and tried to walk away when my mom pulled me back. "Why don't we have a mother and son time together before you take your nap", she replied. My dad simply stood up from the couch, leaving us behind to discuss whatever we want to discuss with ourselves. "I will really miss you son, you are growing so fast and I hope that wisdom also grows along with you my boy", she replied
"I will miss you too, but I will visit you guys from time to time and maybe you guys can visit me too. We won't be that far apart from each other", I replied. "That's true, but what plans do you have for yourself when you get to Nigeria, how are you going to cope with the new environment and people living in it?", she asked looking a bit worried. Living in a different place will be quite uncomfortable at first but I believe I will get used to it as time passes on. "I would simply adapt and move on with the way things are going, There's nothing hard there?", I asked. "There's nothing to worry about, you can stay with my sister over there if you want to", she suggested.
I prefer living alone, don't want to stay with anyone. I'm old enough to live alone, after all I will soon be married and start bearing children of my own", I replied, trying to discard that idea of staying with my Aunt. I know what my mom is capable of and she would eventually do anything possible to make sure that I stay with my aunt If I don't quickly refuse. "Alright then, maybe I should leave you to take a quick nap. See you later", she replied and walked away, leaving all alone in the living room, I I'm feeling sleepy right now but before I could stand up from the couch, I closed my eyes and dozed off

I woke up at exactly 8PM in the night, can't believe I slept that long and now I look more energized than before. I haven't even reached out to Kelvin and Micheal, I should probably do that now before I forget again. So I quickly brought out my phone and dialed Micheal's number. "What's up dude, sorry I didn't call you ever since we left the airport", he apologized. "that's okay, I guess you guys are back home now", I asked
"Yeah sure, I and Alexia have been cleaning the whole house all day because it looks so dirty, you know we left it unkept for a couple of days", he replied. "Too bad you guys leave alone", I teased. "It's not my fault though, I have tried to convince Alexia that we should get a maid who will handle the duties of cleaning and cooking. But she doesn't want to agree, she's just too stubborn and I don't like that most times", he replied
"You shouldn't blame her though, she is only trying to protect that man she loves with all her heart", I replied. "How do you mean protect me, will the maid kill me?", he asked with a confused voice. "You of all people should know that most girls are extremely jealous and they can't bear to see their man being snatched away from them by any other woman, bringing a maid to help with the chores and cooking is definitely not a bad idea at all, but Alexia is only scared that you might cheat on her if the maid should try to seduce you when she is not around", I replied.
"I see your point clearly, but don't you think it's quite odd not to trust the man that you truly love?", he asked. "Do you trust yourself?", I asked. He didn't say anything after that question and I could sense that he is finding it hard to provide a perfect answer because he know what he is capable of. "I trust myself, why won't I trust my myself by the way?", he asked. "So are you trying to say that if another lady should seduce you or even lay naked before you in the absence of your girlfriend, you won't do anything?", I asked
I know he would probably lie to me, but I just want to see what he would say and how he would perfect the lie to make me believe it. "Seriously, this is a very hard question for me to answer, Thank goodness Alexia is not here right now", he replied. "Yes it's a tough question and you must provide an answer to it", I replied. "it all depends on my mood and sexual urge, you know it's hard to control it most times so I may likely take her to bed and do something funny", he replied, I did like that fact that he was truthful.
I thought he was going to lie to me, but it seems that he has finally said the truth because it's actually hard to resist such temptations especially when the person keeps throwing advances at you. "So have you seen why Alexia doesn't want to involve any maid in her home?", I asked. "Yeah, she actually treats me like her husband even when we aren't married yet. But you are right though, it's better to avoid temptations that could break my relationship with her, I do value her so much and I don't want to ever lose her for no reason", he replied sounding so emotional.
"You won't lose her as long as you do the right thing and make her happy Everytime. But I surely know that you guys will get married some day", I teased. "How do you know that?", he asked, "it's quite obvious from the way you treat and talk to her, like I said before, your love for each other is strong and that same love will eventually lead to marriage", I replied. "I pray it does, so how is everything going over there. I'm pretty sure your father must be so surprised to see you back home early, "he was surprised though because my mom didn't inform him that I would be coming today, so I actually walk through the front door like a ghost in day light", I teased.
"I will really miss you when you leave, can't cope with the fact that you won't be with us in New York anymore", he replied, sounding so sad. Seriously, why is everyone going to miss me this much, it's not like I'm going to be there forever I would come back to see some people from time to time. "Why are you sounding as if I will be gone forever, I will also pay you a visit from time to time whenever the opportunity comes. So stop acting like a little child bro, you should be happy for me because I will one day take over my dad's company and handle everything that's going on", I replied. "Don't get me wrong bro, I'm extremely happy for you but I'm going to miss you and since you said you will visit me from time to time, then that's okay. when are you leaving?", he asked
"I'm leaving next tomorrow, so I would like us to meet at the club nine bar tomorrow, let's have fun for one last time before I zoom off", I replied. "That's fine by me, I and Alexia would be there for sure", he replied. "Alright man, catch you later", I replied and hang up the call and just as that moment, Kelvin's call came through. "Something tells me you just remembered my name few minutes ago", I teased after picking up the call". "I felt like calling you to ask when you will be leaving so that I can know if I should pay you a visit today and tell you good bye", he replied.
I was kinda touched by those words, I do have good friends who really care so much about me. "I'm leaving next tomorrow, and by the way I would want you to come to club nine bar tomorrow, let's party one more time and we call it a good day to remember", I replied. "That's a great idea, hope you have informed Micheal and Gabriel about this new development?", he asked.
"I just spoke with Micheal few minutes ago, please help me reach out to Gabriel and tell him to be ready tomorrow because I will come pick him up by let's 10AM sharp. Oh shit, I forgot to tell Micheal about the time", I replied. "Just send him a text now", Kelvin suggested. "That's would be nice, alright have a good night rest dude",. I replied and hang up the call without even waiting for his reply.
I quickly sent a text to Micheal, informing him about the time so that he won't end up coming late. Perhaps I should watch a movie since I don't have any plans on going to bed right now

Phillips POV (Andrew's Father)
The kind of joy I'm feeling right now can be compared to none, who knew that Andrew would turn around to start obeying and completing with me. This is just so amazing and exiting at the same time. "You have been smiling for the past thirty minutes. Is everything okay?", My wife asked, she has been observing my actions for a while but I don't seem to care about it anyways because I'm too happy right now. "Nothing really, I just fill so happy that my family is back together the way it ought to be, it gives me great joy to know that Andrew is with me all the way", I replied with a lovely smile. She looked at me without saying anything and her expression changed a bit. "Is there anything wrong of aren't you happy that things are back to normal?", I asked, trying to know the cause of her sudden mood swing. "Not that I'm not happy, it's just that I will find it hard to live alone in this big house without my handsome boy to play and talk with", she replied
"But you have me, don't you?", I asked looking so confused right now. "You that is always busy with your work at the office, you even bring your office work back home. How on earth do you think I would find joy seeing you work all day and not attend to me", she yelled. Women are indeed very hard to please, if a man is too playful, they will be the one to complain that he should be serious and make more money for his family.
If he is too serious, they will also complain that he doesn't give them the attention they want. I don't even know what to say to this woman right now, she is so free because she has placed a manager who will take care and give her full details about the day to day activities in her boutique, unlike me who has to be the one to handle and supervise major issues in my company. "Alright, perhaps I would stop bringing any office work back home. I would leave them and focus more on you when I'm at home, is that okay?", I asked while fondling with her breast. "Stop it sweetie, you know this stirs up my urge so badly and I'm not in the mood right now", she cried out
