1 Chapter 1
Andrea's POV~
"Mum I'm leaving" I shouted to my mum.
Today's Sunday and as a good Christian, Sunday is supposed to be kept holy according to the commandment of God in the Bible, I never miss it for the world.
In my church, three services are being organized, all for the worship of God.
One in the morning around 7am, then another one around 10am and the last one 12 noon.
Normally I would go with my family to the second service but today my best friend Monica is organizing a party. It's her birthday party and I have to be there.
I and my brother left to go to the first service with our driver, we never went anywhere without our driver and body guard. It's annoying though but it's for our safety and also it's just for a short period of time.

"Miss Andrea Johnson can you take the closing prayer?" my Bible class teacher asked and I prayed.
I and Drew were on our way to the car when I heard someone trying to call me and when I looked back I saw a cute boy of my age behind me.
"hi, sorry I'm new here, and you look nice, so I was hoping we could be friends" he said.
Don't judge me, but I'm the type to look you from head to toe before I can make you my friend, I said don't judge me, it's because I'm afraid of bad influence, I'm a very good girl.
After looking at him from head to toe without him noticing though, I replied.
"sure, we can be friends, what's your name?" I asked.
"I'm so happy, well my name's Luke Abidemi Davies" he said.
"nice to meet you Luke, I'm-" before I could finish talking he completed my statement for me.
"well I know who you are, you are Andrea Omotoriolawa Johnson and your dad owns the estate my family and I just moved into, you have A sister, a younger brother and a twin brother" he said and to say I was surprised would be a big understatement.
"well I never knew I was that popular" I said.
"you must be kidding me! You are bloggers' source of income girl" he said and we both laughed.
"thanks for today, it's hard but you managed to make me laugh, anyways i have to go now" I said when I noticed I had delayed Drew for ten good minutes already.
"OK, I was actually thinking of inviting you to a party I got invited to, but I'm sure you'd know the people there since its in the estate" he said, I was tempted to go with him but I remembered my best friend Monica.
"sorry I also have a party today, maybe next time, bye for now" I said and rushed off to the car.

"Andi, you're finally here, come in, how are you today?" Monica's mom greeted.
"I'm fine Mrs. Williams" I greeted.
As a typical Nigerian Yoruba girl I was supposed to kneel down while greeting but Mrs. Williams was born and brought up in the states, so now kneeling down to greet meant nothing to her.
I looked around and saw that Monica was nowhere to be found.
"MA please where Is Monica?" I asked
"oh she's in her room getting ready, I see you're not ready too, come on go and get ready too, you're not a visitor here princess, shoo shoo, go get ready now" she said and I went upstairs to Mimi's room.
Mrs Williams is the free-woman type, she parties when she feels like, she doesn't care how she's been perceived, she looks good all the time, she's 36 and she's so beautiful.
"hey best friend, a little birdie told me you were were getting prepared for your birthday" I said when I got into her room.
She's gonna be 16 today and her mum was throwing her a sweet sixteen party today.
"Yo, what took you so long?" she asked
"oh come on you know I'm a Christian and today's Sunday, besides its not like I'm late so stop whining like a baby" I said and she surrendered.
I got a text from Drew that he was heading up to the room now, and since it's almost time for the party and we were ready I asked him to come up.
*****
When it Was time for the party to start, I and Drew walked down together while the rest cheered us on.
Finally Monica walked in and to say she looked splendid would be an understatement.
The party was fun and I was enjoying myself too.
Wizkid's One dance was playing and we all danced.
Did I mention that the few parents that were around went out with Mrs Williams, she had offered to take everyone out.
Being the daughter of one of the richest men in the country and abroad too was beginning to bother me. Everyone in this party wanted to be friends with me, they'd either seen me in magazines or on the news, or maybe when I was being awarded, I'm sure Drew wasn't enjoying the attention too.
This was Monica's party but it feels like I'm stealing the spotlight.
Don't get me wrong, he dad's also rich too but not as rich as mine.
I was about to give up and leave but Monica and Drew kept me going.
Just as I was sitting in my own sacred corner, someone sat beside and when I looked to see who it was, it turned out to be the very person I hadn't stopped thinking about since this morning.
"are you stalking me?" I asked him.
"Ofcourse not princess, I got invited to this party too, have you forgotten?"
"by who Luke?" I asked raising my brows a little. I was doubting him, don't blame me, there's another party going on in this estate.
"By me Andi, I see you've met Luke" my best friend said.
"yeah he's in my Bible class" I said with a shrug and continued with my drink.
I know this chapter isn't exactly what it's supposed to be like but I hope you continue reading!!
I hope you'd enjoy it..
Tell me what you feel about this!
Another update coming soon...
Till then...
