I ended up shifting my session to Sunday, because Chyno took all the time, all the time I would’ve used up to record something and it was worth it.. on the drive home, ikenna started getting follow alerts on his phone as like I mentioned earlier, i ised his ohone to log on ti my IG account and left it there. One hundred new followers wow, the former count, i had a meagre fifty followers, now the numbers were increasing and by the time Ikenna dropped me off in front of our gate, the count had rose to five hundred.. hmmn, way to go ikenna said. Ikenna left with promising to reedit my IG profile so if anyone visited it, they’d get the impression that i was an artiste. We bade each other farewell.. i watched as the trunk of Kenna’s Lexus disappear into the bend that led out of my street being controlled by Pajie..God bless this nigga for me i prayed in my heart. Now to face the music after the music which was my Daddy. I said a prayer in my head and made it past out house gate, forged through the backdoor to the kitchen where met my mum as usual. My sister spoke up first as she slept in my room the night before and i gave her a hint


Tasha:
Big bro, how did it go

Me:
(Managing to answer because of fear for the unknown)
Went okay Tee

My mum who had wanted to barge into me then dropped her gaurd

Mum:
(Facing my sister)
So you know where him go your papa dey ask you no fit talk..

Me:
Mum…..

Mum:
Sssssssssssshh i had to lie to him
No be the lie pain me but
Having to defend that lie over and over again
You should’ve told me..

Me:
I’m sorry ma

Mum:
Go Palour, greet am
Tel am say you dey com from your cousin side
God save you today.
Ewu..

I gave my mum a very very tight hug, slapped my sister on the head who was attending to the nice dodo that was frying and the steaming hot pot of rice that i would later come back to at the dinner table.


Sister:
Muuuuuuuuuuuurmy!
(Then she swore after me as i exited the kitchen and made for where my Jagabani Daddy sat like a basket of tomatoes with that him round mini pot belly and bald head)



Me:
Good evening Sir

Dad:
(Says nothing and keeps looking at me like he didn’t believe the epistle my mum gave him and I’m sure he didn’t believe but just decided to let it slide because of how Mum stood up to him after he beat me previously.

(Then speaks up finally)
I thought you’d sleep at Jubilee’s house.
You no suppose come house at all..
See time??
I never wake when you commot for house,
You come go, 12 o clock they dere you no commot
1,2,3,4,5,6,7 oya check time again now 8’oclock!
No worry, i go soon stop una to dey go that way.
Get lost!!!

Get lost he said, I didn’t waste yoo much time to disperse from his presence.. before he change mind.

I went back to the kitchen, without permission, grabbed my sisters iphone and betwen the last time i checked to being in possession of my sists phone, followers had risen to almost 1k but the outlook had changed an i sensed Ikenna’s hand.

Short UpDate

Sunday was always a free day but i had only till 4pm to hang around church after church and I didn’t get into any problem with my folks at home, as i got home a little after 5 and Dad was kn his Sunday hangouts with his friends. I was happy with the record i made with Slimkid and I had another upcoming tack I’d record as Slimkid was very very impressed with my output and my artistry as a whole. My sister had left her phone in her room for me sure she’s with Her nextdoor twin friends. I checked the app again and Chyno had left me a message,

Chyno’s Dm:

Yo jnr,
I’m just contracted this director,
I’m gonna be shooting the visuals for our track “Mario”
I’d love for you to be in the video.
Let me know if you can pull it off so i can make arrangements

Peace

I texted Chyno back and told him i was gonna be available. Not because i had all the time but this movement made me happy, music gave me immense joy and I’d do anything in order not to sabotage it even if it meant giving my dad high blood pressure. At dinner, my sister’s phone kept crying, too many notifications on IG as Chyno was anticipating the track ‘Mario’ that featured me and was using every opportunity to tag me into the rave. Hence why activity on my page didn’t give my sists phone breathing spaces as like i mentioned i signed on on her phone and just left it there. Then my Dad got irritated at the fact that her phone kept beeping.

Dad:
Ajokeh, its like you want your phone to die by drowning?? If you don’t silent it now, I’m going to make sure i commit device murder by purpose throwing it in the sink. (Pointing at the wash hand sink that was on the far end of the dining room).

Ajokeh
No, its bro’s instagram.. inlet him use my phone hence why

Dad:
I don’t care! And why? Why did you bring your phone
To dinner? I thought we made a rule?? You just broke it
But I’m going to let it slide but only this once!!



Sister said her apologies a d put her phone away.. but if i make that mistake, I’m sure he’d seize my phone for weeks or smash it the moment he finds out. I don’t even have a phone anyway. I thought he was done cautioning my sister and that one was done with but 5minutes into dinner, he..


Dad:
Instagraaaaaam, thats what you know, no book dey that your head.. how can….

(Mum cuts in)

Mum:
…. How can what? Practice what you preach.
Let us eat in peace. I don’t even understand you at all
Pikin wan chop you wan scold am.
And you made the rule, no discussions or talks at dinner no convos at breakfast or lunch so why are you
Make a case out of nothing!

They argue for a bit, both mum and dad, mum wins the war of words, Dad turns to a sissy by leaving the dinner table and retiring to is room. His dinner half eaten mum doesn’t bat an eyelid as he left. She urges us to eat up and retire to bed as school was upon us in a matter of hours. Mum came to my room after dinner, She and my sister snd i gave them the gist on what i was working on. She left me with soothing words.

“Do what makes you happy but be smart”


6: 56am Monday morning,

Mum called out from the corridor and said someone was waiting for me outside, they said person came with a “fine car” as my sister termed it. I walked in to the living room and my dad was there hands folded. Kenna was seated there in his neat type school uniform tucked in, presentable and he appeared bold. The moment i opened the outside door to him and ushered him into the sitting room, he first hugged my mum and asked her how her night was. Hugged my sister and bowed to my dad because he was seated. Then sat. Ikenna appeared too bold and composed. I introduced ikenna to-my folks telling them that Ikenna was my classmate and seat partner.

Dad:
Ehn ehn?
(Faces Ikenna)
Why are you here?

Ikenna:
I came to pick him up for school, ad its always boring riding to school alone.

Dad:
Pick?

Ikenna:
Yes my bad, i have my own car and someone that drives me.

Dad:
How old are you?

Ikenna:
Seventeen

Dad:
And your Dad bought you a car?

Ikenna:
Yes i own it completely. Atleast till I’m of age snd can obtain a license i can drive but don’t drive.

Then I think my mum already knew where the convo would end…

Mum cuts in
Ikenna shebi that’s your name?

Ikenna:
Yes Ma’am

Mum:
Welcome to our home
Would you please like to join us for sandwich and tea?

Ikenna:
Err err i..

Mum:
I insist

Ikenna:
S.s.sure Ma’am.


My Dad didn’t join us as he was no fan of breakfasts. We finished up, my dad grabbed his keys, we all went downstair except my mum who stood at the balcony. Downstairs, my dad’s car and Ikenna’s Lexus sat side by side. My Dad’s land cruiser just dey there but the lexus was an example of an expertly ironed shirt.. clean and trendy. Plates had the initials I.K i guess this eas what my dad saw again that made him irked up again.

Dad:
Ike abi what is that your name again

Ikenna:
Ikenna sir

Dad:
Okay Ikenna,
Who do you say your daddy is again?

Ikenna briefly explain what his dad does without going into too much details.. Pajie opens the door open for Ikenna, he then collects my bag then escorts me to the other side if the car, opens the door again and i slid into the car beside Ikenna. Pajie gets into his own side of the car, starts the car and reversed out of the compound into the streets. Only then did my dad’s land cruiser’s engine roared to life and soon drove after us.. my dad was not having the fact that Ikenna’s car was ahead of him, he soon drove past us trying to escape our car totally. Lass lass, Him meet us for school.

I dropped in with Ikenna at uncle Ben’s and that above was my second recorded single. I streamed the song in the studio, posted it on instagram, Chyno say the post, left a comment

“This is your hit track, big plans ahead jnr”

He then reposted the song on his million follower page anticipating the new kid on the block and his would-be viral hit single.
