All Chapters of Nigerian girl: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

LAST YEARJuly 28, 2018"Hi my name is Zaram and I'm from Nigeria. I love reading, eating and watching TV. I am...""What are you doing?"I looked up from my laptop to see my older sister Nenye standing at my bedroom door."Uh, nothing," I said as I immediately shut the computer. She looked at me like I was acting really weird, well I couldn't blame her I definitely was."Mom said that you should come down, aunty Regina and her family are here."Aunty Regina was my mother's older sister. She lived in Lagos with her husband and children. They were coming to Abuja to visit for a while. She had three children just like my mom but the only difference was that her second and third children Chidera and Felicia were twins."Wait, what!"I jumped from my bed and started picking all the clothes that I had carele

A week had passed and aunty Regina and her family were still staying with us. They were supposed to stay for a week or two during this third semester holiday. Her husband was a school principal so he had to go back early before the next session was to begin.I was beginning to get used to Felicia and her addiction to her phone. It was like everywhere she went; she went with her phone.Yesterday when she was going down the staircase she slipped and fell. Luckily for her, she was already close to the ground when she slipped so she was not hurt but her mother scolded her and threatened to take away her phone.This morning we had breakfast together, mom had already set the table, we were having bread and tea. Felicia picked up the hot water flask to pour some of it in her cup but the girl wasn't even looking at the cup so it overfilled and started to pour on the ground.She didn't even notice until

The rest of the week went really fast. Everyday me, Nenye and Vicky would go to school together in the morning then Chidindu would join us in the afternoon. I found out that we were in the same class just that he was in the art class. That was probably why I didn't see him until after school.It was now Saturday and I had homework to do.I was sitting on the desk chair in my bedroom with a black pen in my hand. I stuck the thing in my hair and tried to focus on the math homework that was asking me to find x in an equation.Nenye then walked in. She didn't have to knock because my door was wide open."You should really start closing your door," She said as she went straight for my wardrobe."You know how mum gets whenever we lock our doors," I said back.Her reply was muffled as her head was buried in my wardrobe."What are you looking for?" I asked and turned my chair to face her.Her hair was tied up nicely in a bun and she was all dr

After the whole get together incident I refused to talk to Nenye because I was angry with her. Even when we went to church I didn't say a word to her. CJ noticed it but as expected Nenye didn't, maybe she did but she acted like she didn't show me that what I was doing was stupid."What's wrong? Are both of you fighting or something?" He asked during praise and worship. The voice of the chorister singing filled the church, he had to shout so that I could hear him.I just shook my head and said, "No."It's not like I was lying, Nenye and I weren't really fighting. I mean you can't fight someone when the person does not even acknowledge that both of you are fighting. If I actually fought her then that will just be me attacking her, making me look like the bad person.After praise and worship, it was time for testimonies. I was sitting beside CJ while Nenye sat somewhere in front of us. I could see
