The Lagos Experience Boarded a vehicle to Lagos immediately after our semester break, I took permission from my mom, in order to see Iyin, my brother and my sponsor, Babajide Badmus. Mom was glad that I conceived such great thought,, to see her son. "How I miss my dearest son, Iyin. Ha, poverty is not good. If not for lack of money, will my son be out of my sight? Anyway, it is well." "Haba maami, you should be thankful to God for His goodness and mercies over us. Since Papa's demise, we've been well taken care of by others. No more poverty or can I say, no more lack. You and Ayomide are doing well." "Hmm, you are right Anu. Like your names Anu(Mercy) God has been merciful and I should praise Him.(Iyin) Look here, it is good to thank God oh!" She concluded. "So maami, I will go and see Iyin. Please pray for me." "Of course my daughter, I pray for you everyday. God will keep you safe. The hands of the wicked will not touch you. Greet my son and that good man for me. Tell him to come home very soon. Thank you for calling me." Anu set up for the journey by the following day, God kept them on the road from Ibadan to Lagos. Due to go -slow, they landed in Lagos, Ojota in less than three hours. From Ojota, she took a vehicle to Ikoyi, and alighted by afternoon. She called through the phone and Iyin came out to see her. "Oh my, Sister Anu is here at last!" He yelled raising his hands up in jubilation. The two hugged themselves for a long time. Anu disengaged and shook his body. She raised her head to look up at him. He has grown tall, handsome for a sixteen year old. He was almost 6 feet tall, minus an inch, while Anu is 5ft 8inches tall. "I almost did not recognize you, kid brother. You've grown a lot. I doubt if maami would be able to recognize you. Ha, it's like we've not seen for years, you know." Anu touched his face affectionately. "You've grown very beautiful, my sister. I'm sixteen, you are nineteen years old. You are amazing. I know that you are almost going to be twenty." "Yes, I do tell people that I am twenty sometimes." While Anu was admiring the magnificent building and the beautiful living room, well decorated, Femi strolled in from his work place. "Hey, Anu is here to see us!" He screamed and rushed to hold her in his embrace. "Nice house you have here. Nice seeing you, Femi. How is work?" "Anu, I think I was in the spirit, I became hungry and wanted to go to the usual eatery, but I changed my mind, because I had an urge to come home. I'm not supposed to, but I couldn't help myself. Oh oh, this feels good to see you here.." He rubbed his Palm together in excitement. "I will love to go out for familiarization tour tommorow Saturday. I will love to go to the bar beach. Badagry is the place of coconut, so I heard. Lord Lugard settled there too, and many other lovely places." Anu smiled at him. He smirked and nodded. "This will be my good pleasure. Just get ready and I will take you to an exotic restaurant like sweet sensation, to relax " Femi Badmus responded. Things are going the way he wanted it. Anu is responding properly to him. Anu was unusually excited, ditto her brother and Femi. She moved to the kitchen and started to think of what to cook for dinner while the brother laughed at her. "Hey sis, what are you doing in the kitchen? I'm fixing food for you now. Go and relax in the living room, please." He pleaded as he gently used his hands to push her away from the kitchen. "Oh no, I am a lady, who should be in the kitchen, cooking mouthwatering food you know?" "There is a time for everything under the sun. You will start yours tommorow.Go away and let me spoil you a little." He grinned and started to chop the onions with a kitchen knife. Anu ate her delicious meal cooked by Iyin. She bit her lower lip in the process of munching, to show that she enjoyed the meal. Anu cried out in pain, and Femi went to pat her back, using his hands to carress her back gently, as they all sat at the dining room. Just then, Babajide glided into the room and saw Anu and Femi. By this time, Femi was feeding Anu to relieve her pains. Iyin chuckled and never saw anything wrong. As far as he is concerned, they are all brothers and sister. But Babajide was infuriated and couldn't hold his piece, coupled with the fact that he had a bad day in the office. But he managed to be calm when he realized that Anu was a first time guest and must be treated with caution. "Wow, Anu! You are welcome to the house.Come over to give me a hug. I missed you so much." Babajide uttered, to everyone's shock. "Hahaha, Anu is eating her meal now. Allow her to enjoy her delish food." Femi uttered watching if Anu would get up. "You are welcome sir" She got up quickly to rush to embrace him, but Femi stopped her to the annoyance of Babajide. But he controlled his feeling. The weekend became a battleground for both Femi and Babajide. Both of them wanted to please Anu and have her attention. For Iyin, Anu's presence was more than enough. But Femi and Babajide? Hmmm, please watch out for Lagos Experience part 2.
