Mo's family home is situate at Ajah, after Lekki, another extreme end of Lagos. Ajah is like an hour drive from mainland without traffic and some two hours thirty minutes drive to three hours drive with heavy Lagos traffic.

As Mo drove to her Country home she was glad it's Sunday the road was super free which made driving for Mo sweet and fun at the same time. She drive at a very good speed which wouldn't have been possible if there was traffic.

"Lagos traffic can be disheartening most times" Mo muttered under her breath to herself.

The only traffic she encountered was that at Lekki Concession company toll gate.

Mo got to the house in record time in the noon. When she got to her country home, she parked her car in the compound. The gate keeper John welcomed her as she stepped out of the car, he even offered to carry her bag for her but Mo politely declined, murmured a thank you while smiling at to John. She walked into the living room and saw her little niece Adrian shouting Aunt Mo in her tiny little voice.

When Mo noticed her at the corner of the living room playing with her toys all scattered around her, she was trying to stand up throwing the toys on her laps away as she ran over to where Mo was with her hands wide open so that Mo could pick her up.

Mo smiled wide when she saw her niece Adrian, as Adrian approached, Mo stretched her hands wide open to pick her up.

It was more like Adrain jumped into her hands and she started talking away... "Aunt Mo my daddy got me a new doll her hair is so long and colorful" said Adrain in her tiny little voice.

Mo asked little Adrian who is almost three years old where her Grandma was safely assuming her Adrian's Mom Tomilola came to drop her off since Friday to have her alone time with her husband without child responsibilities for the weekend.

Mo was in for a surprise as Adrian responded and said, "gwanma is in the ki'in with my Mommy".

"Your Mommy is here too, Mo asked surprised. This must really be a big family dinner oo" .

Mo took Adrian to where her toys were, she peeked her before she dropped her, patted her head and murmured Aunty loves you into her ears she glee cheerfully and continues playing with her toys as Mo walks towards the kitchen.
