I can not turn down the only opportunity i have got to travel to the city, beside Abuja is the federal capital territory, i thought to myself.
Yes papa i will follow Mr Ezekiel to Abuja, i
replied with a warm smile. Early in the morning tomorrow i am coming to
pick you up, Mama and papa i thank the both of you for Your trust, as i have promised you, i will treat Richard like my son, Mr Ezekiel said.
After the discussion Mr Ezekiel stood up and was ready to go, hoping to come and pick me up by tomorrow morning, i bided him goodbye and he left.
I looked at my mum eyes i saw she wasn't happy but she had no choice than to let me go. I went inside and start arranging my stuffs in my ghana_must_go(leather bag). Though i was happy but was still
feeling how am going to miss my mum, i love my parent but i prefer my mum most.
After our evening meal, my dad and mum gave me the best Advice in the whole world, they made me promise them i won't fail nor ruin the name of our family. It was an evening to be indeed remembered.
I left to my room and jumped on my bed, you know for sure that i wouldn't be able to sleep well that night. Finally the long awaited morning finally came.
I looked through the window and i saw Mr
Ezekiel coming down from his ride. Oh my gush! and i haven't even bathe, i jumped up and headed straight to the bathroom, withing 2mins i was already dress up and ready to go. My mum convince us to eat but Mr Ezekiel insist.
I hugged my mum and bided them goodbye, I saw tears coming down her cheek as we are going, i couldn't control myself and i started crying also. Common Richard, stop behaving like a kid, mum and dad will be fine, and beside you
will be calling them anytime you wish to.
I was condole by that, i wipe my tears. And soon i became relieved.
Soon we got to Lokoja, and we stopped at MISS CHEDERA RESTAURANT to eat. Lokoja is a bit beautiful, but the dirty beside the river made it disgusting. To me the Governor is not working at all.
After we finish eating we started our journey again, Mr Ezekiel ask me some question in order to test my intelligence, but thank God i answered all the questions accurately and Mr Ezekiel was
amused because he couldn't believe a local boy like me was that good.
The level of the air condition was accurately and before i could realise i was gone in sleep.
The next thing i saw was Mr Ezekiel blowing
horn for the gatekeeper to open the gate.
Ooh! I exclaimed in my thought, i miss gazing at the beauty of Abuja, how i wish i didn't sleep gush, since i have come to stay in Abuja i will still have another chance to tour, i comfort myself.
The gatekeeper opened the gate and Mr Ezekiel drove inn.
When i came out of the car, i raised my eyes up, in short what i saw was not just a house but an
undescribable mansion, i didn't believe Mr Ezekiel is this Rich! How come he didn't build a single room in the village?
As i was looking round like a typical village boy, I saw a beautiful gorgeous lady coming out. Honey welcome back, how was the village? She asked hugging Mr Ezekiel.
(this woman must be my boss wife, i thought).
Village is fine sweetheart, i miss you dear, he replied.
I miss you too honey, who is this boy? She
asked.
Oh this Richard the son of Mr/Mrs Agaba, the man that saved my life some years back, hope you still remember?
Yes honey i do! I lucky ran across them when they were going to the farm yesterday morning and since we need a boy to help in the shop i decided to bring him,
sorry i didn't tell you before bringing him
sweetheart. HE pleaded. i understand dear, she replied.
Good afternoon Aunty! I humbly greeted her.
Welcome to our house Richard, with time u will get use to us, come let me show you your room.
She said to me holding her husband by the
waste.
We left inside and she led me to my room.
Here is your room, bathe and come to the
dinning let's eat. She said and left...

Episode three will be posted tomorrow...Thanks...
