LIVING WITH AUNTY GRACE(A FICTIONAL SERIES)
LIVING WITH AUNTIE GRACE
EPISODE 2:
My first week in school was a disaster. I had gotten intoa fight with some snotty girls (all these sabi sabi, show body over pampered girls). Aunty grace had been quite unhappy with me, I had felt so bad. Their ringleader was mide. I was with elohor on Tuesday morning in class trying to solve a maths assignment that we were given, when this dark skinned lanky girl with large breasts and a flat backside walked up to me and ordered me to do her assignment for her. I would have helped her if she had asked nicely, but she ordered me as if I'm her slave. So I smiled picked up her book and threw it out the window. She started shouting and raining insults on me, I simply dragged elohor's hand, picked up my bag and walked out. That wasn't the end of it oh. This mide called her gang members (amaka, tega, carol and temi) and told them what had happened. they started harassing me and playing stupid pranks on me. On Friday, they decided to get violent. Mide tried to slap me, so I gave her a taste of her own medicine. I really dealt with her and her friends even though I ended up with a torn uniform and a dislocated wrist.
Aunty grace was really disappointed, but after I had explained everything she told me that I should have reported mide to the school authorities, she said she was proud of me for defending myself against bullies but I should abstain from fighting. I was glad she had forgiven me.

Aunty grace birthday marked the change of things. Papa had continued to send my allowance every week through uncle dayo. Uncle dayo comes to town every Saturday to visit aunty grace and I. My first allowance had been given to me, but because I trusted aunty grace so much I gave it to her and from then on, my allowance goes to her. That was my second mistake.
I hardly was in need of anything so I scarcely asked aunty grace for money. Two days to her birthday, I had asked her for 1000naira - so I could get a gift for her. She asked what I wanted it for and I told her it was for a new mathematics textbook. I didn't notice that her face had changed and she knew I was lieing, but she gave me the money anyway.
The next day, elohor and I went to the market to look for a befitting gift for aunty grace. I bought a very beautiful necklace for her, and elohor bought her a nice purse.
The next day being the 5th of November- a Saturday, elohor snuk into my house around 5am so we could prepare aunty grace's favourite dish (jollof rice with sardines) we wanted it to be cooked before she woke up. It was our first birthday surprise to her.
Aunty grace was so happy when we served her the food in bed while singing a happy birthday song for her. I was feeling really happy.
The party started around 6pm that evening, her friends had been arriving all day, elohor and I had to oversee everything. Aunty grace had paid a caterer to cook the food so she wouldn't be stressed out. Aunty Linda (one of aunty grace friends ) was talking with aunty grace when I was walking towards them and overhead her asking if I was the new house girl and what happened to the former one. I was confused. I had to turn around to look for elohor to tell her what I had heard. I found elohor in the kitchen, she wasn't looking quite happy. I told her what I had heard but she said nothing. I asked what was wrong and she said one of aunty grace male friends had touched her buttocks while she was walking past. I had to apologise and promised to tell aunty grace once the party was over. The party was being held outside the house, so elohor and I remained indoors.
"Where is that good for nothing girl" was what I heard a few minutes later. it was aunty grace and she looked really angry.
"so you've decided to hide from a little work enh"?
"No" we replied and tried to explain to her about elohor's incident. Aunty grace just laughed and said
