Setup

Queen, wake up your parents have been calling you for the past two hours now, I thought not to wake you up but I don't think everything is alright, Sheila says

I will call them back but for now, I need to sleep abeg, I said

You have to call them back, it's not just your parents but your cousins too, Sheila say

Alright, let me call them back, I replied

I picked up my phone and dialed my mother's number because she gave me the most missed call.

Hello Mom, I missed your call..... I was about to say but she cut me off quickly

Where are you right now? She asked me

Am home Ma,l answered

Are you sure that you are at home, she asked yelling at me angrily

Yes am very sure, why are you this angry and yelling at the same time mom, I asked her

Am in your house and you are not there, why are you lying to me? I have been here for the past two hours, my mom yelled

Mom calm down, am at home just not in my room, am in my neighbor's room, I tell her because she doesn't even want to listen to me. So I told my friend Sheila that am going to my room because my mom was around.

Sheila was excited because she had always wanted to meet my mother. After all, I have met her's. As we were about to leave her room, she stopped me and asked is your mother here by this time of the evening, she muttered looking at me suspicious

I don't like that look, honestly, I don't know why she is here but we are about to find, so let's go, I dragged her along

When I got to my house, my door was open and it's only one person that has the key to my house, and that was my cousin. So why would my mother call my cousin and not me? I was shocked by the people I met in my house.

My cousin, parents and my aunt. All of them have this disgust on their face like I committed an abomination and it's how my Aunty sized me up and down like a woman who just saw her husband's side chick for the first time.

Good evening Mom, Dad, and Aunty, what brought you all to my house, I inquired.

Where are you coming from queen, my Aunty shouted.

From my neighbor's room, what is with this visit and why are you all frowning, did anything happen? I ask in confusion.

Where are the clothes you wore and went out, bring them out first. My mother says as a matter of fact.

I don't understand what is going on here, first I told you where am coming from, and it's obvious you don't believe me and second which cloth are you talking about? Can someone tell me why you are all in my house at this time, I asked

Have you ever asked anything and we didn't give you except if it's not within our reach or not available, my dad asked in a calm voice.

No, dad

So why did you want to use your hand and bring shame to this family, you told me not to worry that your business is moving fine and you will survive, he continues

I won't ask this question again, exactly what is the problem, you have all kept me in suspense ever since I came inside one question to another but nobody has told me what I did wrong, please what did I do, I pleaded

You acting like you don't know, my other cousin scoffed.

Who is that married man that you are dating and don't even bother lying cause you went to meet him this evening, wearing these clothes, my mother showed me a picture of me fully dressed in a party gown

I turned and looked at my cousin, I got what was happening here. Let me give you people the full gist, cause you will need it. I confided in Chinonye here about a married man who was disturbing my life and she advised me to give the man a chance. I refused she told me that there was no harm, I should give him chance since I needed to pay my school fees and I couldn't ask you Dad as you are just recovering. I asked her to borrow me she refused.

It's a lie, she is lying against me, because I exposed her, Chinonye muttered shaking.

I gave them voice notes and pictures, showing them evidence of what Chinonye always advises me to do. She was asked why she tried to set me up. She says every time, it's me that they are using to give example. So she wanted them to stop.

I told her nobody asked you to be a sour grape, you made your bed, and that's how you will lay on it. Please Mom, Dad, and Aunty from today, let Chinonye stay away from me.

That's how I severed all ties with Chinonye to date.
