Chapter Nine
______

I wake up to different noises coming from downstairs. What is this one again somebody cannot sleep and enjoy Christmas again.

Just then I hear a knock on my door. Mama walks inside and pulls the duvet off my body. 

"If you knew you were going to enter without me asking you to why did you knock?" She just hissed.

"Madam carry that your pancake bumbum off the bed, the whole family is around." I looked at her with a shocked expression. "Aunty Chinenye came with her children too" she continued.

Why? God why? That woman has five children ranging from ages 3-6. The children are a pain in the ass. First a set of twins then triplets.

I swear the thing weak me too

"Chai kedu nsogbu bu ihe ani, okay I've heard I'm coming downstairs let me go and wash my face and brush" I said and shooed Mama out of the room. 

I walked downstairs and greeted everyone and made sure to give my cousins the sign that there is plenty gist.

I mean the ones that are my age mates not all those babies o!

"See Chioma of yesterday, ahn ahn you don't remember me" a strange but familiar man asked.

Oga you traveled when I was two how will I remember you?

"Oh I remember" I said and went to the kitchen before he will start asking me questions I can't answer.

"Uncle Chima you're around?" I asked and he simply nodded.

"Chioma I just stopped by to drop you people's gifts and say hi to everyone I have to go now as you can see I was already leaving"

"Haba Uncle you should have stayed small" I said with a pout.

"I know oya take" he brings out a fresh one thousand naira note. "Use it to buy biscuit"

"Ah uncle thank you but you know biscuit is now expensive so maybe you can add small money" I said.

"As if biscuit is not ten naira highest sef it will be hundred naira" he said knowingly.

"Okay o! bye bye I'll talk to you on whatsapp see you later greet Chimamanda for me" I said, he smiled and left.

Money for biscuit ko Money for ice cream ni see free money for credit.  

"Chioma so this is where you are, anyway come outside come and help with the cooking. Your aunties and cousins have already started bringing out the ingredients" She said.

"Okay ma let me just go and have my bath"

"No just come outside like that we're using firewood and you know it's going to be hot and everybody will be sweating like Christmas goat talking about goat let me see if they have brought the goat" she said and left.
