“Kiss me back please”he said and captured her lips again, kissing her passionately while she kissed him back.
“I’m not watching this”Mimi walked towards the living room while the rest followed.
Xavier broke the kiss gently and they maintained eye contact before smiling which eventually led to a short laughter.
“Is that your reply”he said still smiling.
“Reply?”she asked, smiling also.
“Or is it a welcome gift?”
“Is it?”she asked.
“Stop answering with a question”he said.
“Should I then say my reply?”she said.
“You said you wanna hear it while you see me”she added.
“Your face says it’s gonna be an heartbreak”he said and she smiled.
“Let’s join the others”she said and tried walking away but he held her.
“I still wanna know what the kiss is for”he said.
“You begged me to kiss you back”she said and watched his expression which changed to a sad one and she laughed.
“Stop teasing me”he frowned.
“You look like a monkey right now”she laughed and he started walking away.
“You’re angry!”she followed behind him.
“Don’t talk to me”he said.
“Your wish”she said and walked past him. He wanted to drag her but paying her won’t be bad.
They joined the others who were chatting.
“So this is Lagos Island?”Mimi asked.
“Yes, there are different places in Nigeria than you’re imagine”Grace said.
“Then let’s visit the places one after the other”Noah said.
“Right, it’d take us like a week”Mimi said and Grace laughed.
“We’ve got thirty-six states, imagine how one state would be, the towns, city….”Grace said.
“I’m hungry”Mimi yawned and they laughed.
“Did Ma Angel know you all were gonna come?”Grace asked.
“Nope, and you’re not gonna tell her”Xavier said.
“I’m not?”she asked.
“This is like our little secret”Finch said.
“So you have to keep it”Noah said.
“By lying when she asks”Mimi said and she sighed.
“Okay, let’s move to the dinning”Grace stood up and they followed.
“It’s a Nigerian dish”June said.
“Yeah, I’ve wanted to taste it”Mimi giggled.
“It’s pepper soup and rice”Grace said.
“Peppersoup?”she said at same time.
“Come on sit”Grace said and they sat. Each holding their spoon as June and Grace served.
“Go on!”
At same time, their spoon went in, putting it their mouth. Finch was the first to spit it out and instantly picked a glass of water, drinking all of it.
Xavier on the other hand looked at June who had a look of don’t you dare, so he swallowed and took a glass of water but she took it from him.
“It’s gonna make it more hot”she said and dropped it, fanning his mouth with his hand.
Noah already ran to the kitchen along with Finch since the water on the dinning is finished. But Mimi continued like there’s no pepper in it.
“You’re okay Mimi?”Grace asked.
“This is tasty and amazing”she said as she continued.
Xavier had another but he couldn’t continue, not minding June’s glance, he also ran to the kitchen.
“There’s no food in this house except this!”June shouted as she starting laughing, same as Grace.

Gold walked out of the bathroom. She just had a shower. She put on her a crop top and shirt. It’s noon already but night in Nigeria.
She picked her phone to call Finch but Diamond walked in which made her drop it.
“Hey, stop bagging in, knock at least”she said.
“I failed”Diamond said.
“Uhn?”
“Mom and dad haven’t find out, but what if they do?”she burst in an uncontrollable tears.
“Are you for real, I thought you said you were ready, I’d have written for you”Gold got to her.
“I didn’t really get over Xavier and it was really had to concentrate”she cried.
“So, you’re gonna seat for it again? Another extra year?”Gold asked.
“Yes!!!”
“You failed?”their mom walked in, she heard their conversation.
“Mom….”
“That’s it, I’m paying no extra money to cover this, you did this last semester!”she shouted.
“I’m sorry mom!”Diamond knelt down while Gold did same.
“You brought this upon yourself, we aren’t the richest in this country for you not to be serious and think there did be money to cover up. Wait for your dad’s reply on this”she said and stormed out.
“Do something Gold, I wanna graduate same time with you”she cried and Gold hugged her.

< Nigeria * June's Mansion >
The guys are just coming out of a room. They had to use toothpaste to take it down.
Mimi is busy cleaning her teeth from the meat hidden in them with a toothpick.
“I’m never having any Nigerian dish”Finch said.
“Come on, there are more delicious ones”June said.
“Not me”Noah and Finch said while Xavier just sat there.
“What?”June sat beside Xavier.
“I’m hungry”he muttered and she laughed.
“That’s the only food we have”she chuckled.
“Order something”he groaned.
“We don’t spend dollar here”she said and he scoffed.
“Come with me!”she dragged him, taking him to the kitchen.
She took out an ice cream from the fridge and gave him.
“It’s gonna help better”she said and he opened it, devouring it like an hungry lion.
“You look like a baby right now”she chuckled and he looked up.
“What?”she smiled.
“You grew more beautiful”he said and she smiled.
“I don’t feel like going back home”he said.
“You’re gonna go, you have to”she said.
“If you’ll come with me”he said and continued with the ice cream.
“I don’t know, but I’m just curious on why your mother would do all this for me”she said and he looked up.
“The car outside is mine same with this house and a million dollar in an account which is mine, why would she give me that, it’s like she’s selling me off”she said.
“Why did you choose that instead of staying with me?”he asked.
“I can’t fight with your mom, I have nothing and since she said she did give me all this, I can’t give it up”she said.
“Maybe you don’t just like me”he muttered.
“Who said that?”
“You do?”he asked.
“Off course I like you”she said.
“As a friend, yes as a friend”he scoffed.
“I like you more than as a friend”she said and he smiled secretly. He’s gonna make her say those words without knowing.
“So you don’t care if I’m younger?”he asked and she Shaked her head negatively.
“I want words June, I wanna know if I’m doing the right thing, if I’m not the only one loving between us, I wanna know what you feel….”
“I love you”she muffled which made him stopped talking. Yes, she finally said those words.
“I didn’t hear”he smirked.
“I didn’t say anything”she said.
“Don’t play with it, I heard those words”he said.
“I wanna say it at the right time, not now”she said and he dropped the ice cream, getting to her, he started tickling her.
“Stop! Stop….it…. Xavier…..”she laughed but he didn’t stop.
“Say it”
“Xa….vier….”
“Say it”
“I love you okay!”she shouted and he let go of her.
“I love you too”he smiled.
“Your turn”she smirked and started tickling him but it didn’t take long cause he got her hands, dragging her closer.
“Even if you’re older, you’re still gonna be my baby, cause you’re just so sweet and cute and a little weak”he said and she smiled.
“But I’m matured”she said.
“I’m naughty”he said and she chuckled.
“I’m more naughty”she said.
“Did Grace teach you all this?”she smirked.
“I learnt myself”she smiled and he smiled then hugged her.
“I love you”he muttered.
