She stopped crying when tony did the unbelievable,he sat down and joined her to cry making sure his voice was way more louder than hers.
Tony continued crying,thou he is very sure that Vanessa has stopped crying and was looking at him. When Vanessa couldn’t take it,she throwed a question to him in anger.
“What’s wrong with you and why are you crying huh?”She half yelled and Tony stopped crying,he looked at Vanessa and broke down into another round of cry, confusing the hell out of Vanessa.
“Hey,can you stop huh? There’s no tears coming out from your eyes so why screaming?”She half yelled glaring at him.
“There’s… there’s no tears?”Tony stuttered in pretence while touching his cheek,he brought his hand to his face and sighed.
“You’re right, there’s no tears…but I was really crying. Could it mean that….”
“Cut the crab and teach me how to sweep”Vanessa rolled eye and Tony almost laughed,but he held it back and nodded slowly.
He stood up,and gave the broom to Vanessa again which she took grumpily.
“Oya..oya start!!”Tony nodded and she exhaled before standing up.
She began sweeping,with tony inspecting the room. Occasionally he’ll tell her to come back and sweep one particular spot she didn’t sweep well.
After they where done, Vanessa slumped back on the bed tiredly.
“So tell me,how the room dey for your eye like this?”He asks her.
“Wh@ťěver”Was reply.
“If you like, wh@ťěver all you want but we aren’t done yet you grab? Wetin we go cook cos as you dey hungry na so I dey too”tony told her and she groaned angrily.
“I’m not going to cook”she replied bluntly.
“Abi you no Sabi cook?”Tony taunted and she rolled eye.
“Thank goodness you know better,back then in America I hardly pick a pin talk more of sweeping but here you forced me to do things I haven’t done ever since I was born,but you see cooking? I ain’t doing that $h|t!!”Vanessa blurted out in frustration.
“You see why you’ll are stupid like this? You no dey pick pin for America? How that one take concern tony? Dem never tell you na Naija you dey so? You go dey do everything, sweeping, cooking, washing, cleaning, and all that. I fit help you small kwa oo,you no I be better boy”tony replied.
“That’s your problem, Vanessa aren’t cooking any d@mn food. If you’re hungry,go in there and make something for yourself”Vanessa shouted and Tony wiggled his brow.
“Vanessa,hunger don kpai me…I don’t have any strength to argue,stand up and follow me to the kitchen”He said, and Vanessa looked at him in pity.
“Do you know you’re annoying?”She asked calmly,a pathetic smile on her face.
“Do you know you’re more than annoying too? You sulks”Tony shook her and Vanessa rolled eye.
“I know I’m annoying,I’m not denying that. So just let me breath for once. You’re suffocating me”she replied him.
“So you no dey cook?”Tony asked slowly and Vanessa nodded.
“I’m sure you’re not deaf,you heard me”She smiled.
“No wam na, Vanessa wetin I talk no wam!! Shey you’re hungry?”He asks and Vanessa nodded.
“If I give you this food after cooking,make I bend”Tony told her in anger and Vanessa smiled.
“Then be ready to bend tony,cos I’m going to eat after you’re done”She waved hand and Tony smiled.
“Action speaks louder Sha,you go know today that hunger dey show pesin shege”Tony said and walked into the kitchen,Vanessa scoffed while rolling her eye.

√√HOURS LATER√√
The sweet aroma of a well cooked rice and stew with goat meat,covered the room.
Tony was almost done cooking, while Vanessa was in the room watching movie. She was literally hungry and was waiting for tony to be done with the food preparation.
As if God heard her prayer,Tony walked into the room with a plate of rice in his hand.
He dropped it on the table,then went over to get himself a can of chilled coke,he came back and sat down then began eating.
He stopped eating,when Vanessa climbed down the bed and went to the kitchen,like someone being chased tony left the room and went after her.
The moment Vanessa tried opening the pot,tony held her hand while glaring at her vernomously.
“Can you let go?”Vanessa asked with her eyes fixed on her hand which tony was holding.
“Wetin you wan do Fess?”Tony asked, still holding her hand.
“And what does it look like I’m doing? I wanna dish out a food for….”
“Taaaah!! Shut up my friend,wanna dish food ki|| you there”tony shot at her and Vanessa flinched.
“Seriously tony? I can’t eat?”She asked.
“You no go try am. If you chop this food,make I bend!! taaaah”He replied and Vanessa chuckled.
“Well,you can’t stop me”she replied and Tony smiled before leaving her hand.
“I dare you to dish out the food. The kian slap I go give you,if you no go blind then no say I no be tony”Tony thundered and Vanessa looked at him,tears already welling up in her eyes.
“The way you’re treating me it’s unfair, seriously”She hiccuped and Tony stared at her angrily.
“The way you’re making me look like a bad person is unfair,you go know what is right and you still no go do am. Little thing,you don start to dey cry… mAh tell you,if I hear pinmm from you in the name that you’re crying, na back hand slap I go give you. Tell me, wetin dey work you? They smoke ice before birthing you? Don’t touch that pot if you don’t want to get me angry”Tony warned and Vanessa took her bottom lips in, trying so hard not to break down in tears.
She hiccuped and looked at tony.
“Can I have a little?”She asked and Tony shook head.
“I go bend if I allow you chop,I don already talk am say if you eat this food mAh bend and I don’t want to”Tony replied her and Vanessa nodded before keeping back the plate,she slowly walked out of the kitchen like a drenched fowl.
Tony dip his hand in his hair, roughing it while feeling guilty and at the same time sad.
“Tony you’re not a bad person, you’re only tryna help”he exhaled and walked out of the kitchen,but Vanessa wasn’t in the room again.

√√OUTSIDE√√
Vanessa sat on a chair, while her tears rushed down in handfuls. She just ended the video call she had with her dad and as always,he refused on letting her back and Even disconnected the call.
She buried her face on her thighs, crying to her heart content.
She wasn’t crying cos of the food or anything,she was crying cos of the $h|t she’s going through here.
She suddenly felt a presence before her and she looked up slowly to see a handsome fair guy standing before her.
“Hey beautiful,why are you sitting alone and crying your eyes out?”His deep charming voice spoke out and Vanessa was lost,staring at him that she didn’t even hear him ask the question.
“Hey??”He waved at her and Vanessa blinked before looking away.
“Just get the hell outta here”Vanessa told him harshly. He only smiled before sitting on the empty space beside her.
“Mind sharing why you’re crying with me? Isn’t it too odd, for a pretty lady like you to sit down Alone crying?”He asked charmingly, looking at Vanessa.
“Yunno,I’m just tired of this f-__-king life I’m living”She broke down in tears again and the guy shook his head.
“I understand”He told her and Vanessa looked at him.
“You don’t,I can bet on my life that you don’t understand the pains I’m going through. Staying in that shitty room with that good for nothing guy, always dancing to his tone and doing wh@ťěver he says. The fact that my life is being controlled by a pauper like him,the fact that my parents doesn’t care and the fact that I’m likely to spend my entire life here in Nigeria sickens me. I just wanna die”She sobbed and the boy exhaled.
“You seems like a spoilt brat anyways”He nodded and Vanessa looked at him without saying anything.
“Your muteness says it all,well it’s fine anyways. Just so you know,I’m always here for you okay? Just call me anytime you need my help and if you ever get tired of staying with him,you can come stay with me. I wouldn’t mind”He told her and a smile appeared on Vanessa’s face immediately.
“Really?”She asked,with her heart bubbling in joy.
“Yes really”He nodded with a smile, Vanessa wanted to talk but she suddenly kept quiet while looking at him with a serious face.
“What?”He asked.
“Aren’t you going to treat me like he does? Always commanding and ordering me like I’m a nobody? Forcing me to do things that I don’t know how to?”She asked and he chuckled.
“Well I won’t. You should be treated like a precious Jewel cos you’re very costly. I’m sure he’s a dullard,that’s why he doesn’t know your value”The guy scoffed and Vanessa smiled widely.
“You’re going to treat me nicely?”She ask again.
“I’m not going to treat you nicely,I’m going to treat you like the princess you are!!”He reassured her with a smile.
“Gosh!! I’m so happy, really happy!!”She squealed happily.
“Forgive my manners,am Samuel but you can call me Sam for short”he said, bringing out his hand for a handshake.
“And I am Vanessa,nice meeting you”She replied, accepting his hand.
Their hands was locked in a handshake with the both of them, smiling at each other. unknown to them that someone was watching them all along.
