Seven

I threw up everything I had eaten in the toilet bowl and wiped my mouth. I rinsed my mouth with water as I stared at myself in the mirror.

I was born with a light complexion and a small face. I had flat cheeks which made my face look slightly oblong. My cherry lips were slightly moistured.

I was pretty. I wasn't as pretty as any of the girls but at least, I was good looking. What's more, Gani's constant harping on my poor fashion sense made me try to wear flashy clothes.

I walked out of the restroom back to the restaurant. They all seemed to vibe together and I noticed Snr Judas sitting down. I sat down quietly without a word as I kept looking here and there.

I started moving uncomfortably when I noticed we had spent almost an hour in the restaurant. Alarms rang off in my head as I thought that my dad might be waiting for me.

"What's wrong with you?" Josie asked with a frown.

I scratched my hair slowly "I think my dad might be waiting for me" I replied.

"Your dad still picks you up?" One of the boys asked as they all burst into laughter.

"You are really naive"

"You are going to be clocking sixteen soon, when will you break from being a daddy's girl?" Gani asked with a snort.

"Just go, you are ruining the atmosphere" Kunmi snapped at me.

I said goodbye as I burst into a race back to school. I tried to think of an explanation to tell my dad but I couldn't even find one. Even if I found one; he would catch me. I started praying for him to get holded up in a traffic jam.

I panted heavily as I got to the school gate and looked around for my Daddy's car. I heaved a sigh of relief when I didn't see his car.

I checked my wristwatch and discovered it was already past 5pm. 4pm was closing hours for day students at BIC. My dad was running really late and I became anxious.

A White muscle Camry pulled up beside me and I skipped to the front seat.

"Sorry I'm late. Traffic" My dad said as I laughed.

"No worries. I just go here too" I replied fixing my seat belt.

"What were you doing in school?" My dad asked.

"I went to Dallas with my friends" I replied truthfully.

"Ohh" my dad said as he made a U-turn. I grabbed his tablet as I keyed in the password.

"I downloaded the new episodes of Doctor Stone for you" My dad said as I squealed in delight. I reached over to him and dropped a peck on his cheeks.

"I love you" I squealed as I opened the cabinet in front of me and brought out my airpods. I quickly fixed them in my ears as I put on the Bluetooth.

My hands ran expertly over the screen of the tab as I found the VLC amidst the hundreds of apps on the tab. My delight started pulling up as I clicked on the video.

Out of everything the girls complained about me; it was watching animes I wasn't able to stop. I loved animes; they were crazy. Although some of them annoyed me; I still loved watching it.

Yeah, everything in my life sucks except my family. As an only child; I have an excellent relationship with my parents. Although I'm closer to my Dad than my Mom; I have a good relationship with them both.
