Light to my life (On Hold)

Chapter Four💖

I dedicate this chapter to all my readers. Most especially @Al-Khalid @Teefabulous Jkaloko
Thanks for your support. I really appreciate you all.

Benita, Rachel  and l were now walking to the canteen . It was break time.

I missed their company, the holiday separated us.

But what mattered now was that we were back together.

It was already break time, making students to cluster the canteen.

Students holding packs of edibles on their hands walked past us.

"So how did you spend the holiday?", Rachel asked me.

She now looked fatter than before.

"I spent my holiday with my grandma"I replied her.

My grandma is a very lovely woman. We had striking resemblance.
I am very close to her. I spent most of my life with her. Then I was young.
She is getting older now but yet she looks younger than her age.

"Gist us na" Benita demanded.

I chuckled before I continued.

"Well I spent my holiday with my grandma in Enugu" I began.
"I enjoyed my  stay with her in the village. She lives with other relatives in our family house.
She was happy when saw me. She welcomed me and made sure I felt at home.
I ensured that I assisted her with house chores.
Most of my relations , cousins and I helped her in her large vegetable farm.
And at night I enjoyed her bed time stories before I slept.
She wasn't happy I was leaving her. Until I promised to visit next holiday.
That was how I spent my holiday". I concluded.

"Benita oya spill," Rachel said facing Benita.

"Okay o" Benita said.

"Well I spent my holiday in Canada" Benita continued.
My dad suggested that we go there, since he had an engagement there.

"No wonder your phone number wasn't reachable", I said.

"Yes, so sorry I didn't inform you guys .  It came with a short notice". She said

"We went first to a hotel in Toronto. It was the hotel which my dad had booked.The hotel has colourful decors.
I and my siblings stayed in a room while my parents stayed in another.
It has nice ice cream treats. We ate at the award winning 360 restaurant. I ate pizza prepared by one of the best chefs in Canada.
There are nice lakes and gardens over there in Canada". She chuckled before she continued.
"Like every other country. They have mesmerizing natural landscapes, soul lifting culture and many other things.
On the second day of our arrival we went to Banff national park.
We took a ride in the park.
I and my siblings hiked there.
You needed to see how I was breathing after hiking for about an hour. We hiked with other people through some part of the park.
I made friends with some people over there. Most of whom were even foreigners. They are
peaceful people.
Some days later we went to Butchart gardens. They have well groomed flowers. With tourists visiting there almost all year round.
Infact the flowers there will blow your mind. They made wonderful backgrounds in the pictures I took there.
We wanted to go Hornby Island when my dad said we should return back to Nigeria".

"Haah, so you didn't even bring anything for us". I and Rachel  asked.

"Why not? I brought some chocolates". Benita answered us.

"Once we get to the class i will give you guys". She grinned at us.

It was now Rachel's turn. I and Benita looked towards her direction.

"Rachel, how did your holiday go? " Benita asked her.

"Okay oo" Rachel grinned.

"I spent my holiday here in Lagos. A cousin of mine took me to Jhalobia Park and Gardens.
It is one of the most beautiful gardens in the entire country.The green grass there is natural. I enjoyed the homeliness of its fantastic surroundings.
We later went to 'Hi Impact Planet'. The amusement park lives up to its name. Its recreational facility offered us fun and excitement all round!
I also went for A.Y.live show, I cracked my ribs laughing. A.Y. is indeed a great comedian.
I really enjoyed my holiday" She said with a wide smile.

"Indeed we all had a great time during the holiday". I commented.

We walked back to class together. The break was over.

* * * * *

It was already closing time I walked downstairs with Benita and Rachel.

We were walking towards the gate.I waved at them, approaching my car.

My driver was already waiting for me. I greeted him and slumped into the back seat of the car before he drove off.

I walked into the house. Aunty Stella had left before I came back from school.

I showered and changed into a pink shirt and a black short.Then went to my bed for siesta.

In no time my parents would back from work.

Dinner was now ready. My parents were now home. We all sat eating as one big family to have our dinner.

I was back in my room now after having dinner.   I looked at my wall clock. It was hung on the wall in my room.
It was just 9:09pm.

I picked up my phone to check my social media platforms. Before I went to bed.
