chapter 13

Jackson, I know that I accede to do so, but I got fired from my place of work so right now am trying every possible way to get a new job.

I understand big sis but that shouldn't be an excuse and the reason I shouldn't be in school.

Sam became very angry because the brother was not helping matters at all. so I should kill myself because you have to go to school. Jackson why are you so inconsiderate I thought you were a good boy." what has gotten into you today jack. why are you being so mischievous today? are you sure you are my brother.

Jackson, do you think I have not been trying my best to get a job so that I can pay for your fees.

and just take a good look at your sister" what about me" I am also a student just like you and the worst part of it is that am in my final year at the university. I have not paid for my school fees and neither I have paid for any of my school projects. And the worst part of it is that If I can't pay for those projects before the said time I will not able to graduate this year with my coursemates.

Jackson please it isn't easy for me as well" I am trying all my possible best too. so just be a little patient with me. and you will see very soon everything will be alright.

am sorry sister Sam I don't know what came over me. I have been a little bit upset lately and that's because every morning I see those, my friends, that we normally go to school together." heading to school without me I always feel sad. so I didn't mean to be disrespectful towards you. so I am very sorry sister Sam and please forgive me.

It's okay jack it is not your fault" it is because of the condition we are born into.

come and give me a big hug now and then promise me to be a good boy from henceforth. l promise" that is my boy. sis please I have one last request.

alright what is it jack, can I call you sam when we are alone just like the rest of your friends called you. and why do you want to do that, it's because it makes me look like a baby when I call you big sis all the time. sis please 🙏 say yes, okay Jackson you are free to do as you wish." just excuse me I need to pick up this call. okay sis I will not bother then?

I will just sit over there while you carry on with your call. Jackson, you have to go back to your room I need to speak to him in private. but Sam's is it not uncle Thomas that's on the line. yes, he's the one? then what privacy are you talking about sam." but before you always talk to him right in front of me or don't tell me you have fallen for him already. you see what am saying you are really in love with him so admit it.

Jackson stops saying that before I lose My temper, you know it's always very bad anytime I get angry right. so stop now that am telling you nicely, before I lose it. alright, Sister, I am sorry but I was only joking around with you?

but since you said you don't like it I will stop then. I will be in my room so you can carry on with your call. thanks for your cooperation little bro you are welcome Sam.

Sam had feelings for Thomas right from their high school days. she fell in love with Thomas but she was scared to let him know because she thinks that Thomas will take it as a joke. so sam kept silent till they finish high school and then Thomas traveled abroad to further his education and ever since then they have only been talking on the phone once in a while.

Hello Thom what up my queen" what happened why did you hesitate before picking up the call. I wasn't close to where my phone was so that is why. I see so tell me Sam how have you been. I am doing perfectly okey" alright, I am happy to hear that. what about you Thom how are you doing over there" am doing quite okay here my queen" but the thing is that I miss you. do you miss me too my queen.

of, of course, I miss you so much." in fact, I miss you a thousand percent; hahaha Thomas laugh, what is it and why are you laughing. Nothing" but Sam tell me do you really miss me that much," you have started now Thomas. Have started what my queen. You know what if you say yes I will get my ticket and fly back to county C right now.

You know what Thomas" my queen is there anything I need to know; I hate you that what I need to know Thomas. Why do you always have to joke around with me even when am death serious about it. Please 🙏 my queen am on my knee right now, please forgive me I am very sorry. alright I have forgiven you; thank you my queen.

Thomas please stop addressing me by those names because it might implicate you one day. sorry, my queen but why did you say that. Thomas the reason I said so is because your girlfriend may overheard you one day addressing me that way" she will simply think that you are cheating on her with someone else.

then I will be the happiest man on earth if that happens because of you. Thomas what has come over you and what are you even saying? please Thomas relationship is not a child's play so don't you ever speak in this manner again. okay my princess I was only trying to pull your legs. okay, to tell you the truth Sam I am not in a relationship. Thomas so you mean you haven't been in any relationship ever since you were there.

Hmmm, my queen about that" I have been in a relationship before but it didn't last.Oh my God so sorry about that. am sorry to ask but what happened" why did you guys break up, Sam that's a very long story" but don't worry I will tell you about it next time and have to drop the call now. and don't worry there will be no lady that I Thomas will date that will be so stupid to do that, I mean to break up with me just because I address you that way. because even till our next life you will still be my princess and the queen of my soul. so my queen bye for now, okay bye Thom.
