CHAPTER 40
I was finally getting back to how I used to be. I and father settled our issues and now he comes to our
place sometimes to eat or just chill with us. He had mother seemed to still have a connection and I
wouldn't be surprised if they decided to get back together again. He made her laugh a lot and I could
tell they were both still in love. The last time she was this happy was before father left. I could see it in
how both of them relate with one another. I guess we never truly stop loving the ones we love. Ridwan
also didn't stop messaging me from time to time and now I was starting to reply to them back.
Karina's convocation was today and I was excited for her.
"We are so going to be late for this thing, if we don't get going now" mother said to me as I hurriedly
applied some make up on my face.
"I am done, I am done" I said as I picked up my bag and headed for the car.
"Congrats again my love, I am so proud of you dear" I said to Karina as I looked to the side of the car
where she was sitted.
"Thanks sis" she said smiling.
"Father said he will meet up with us at the venue" Karina informed.
"Alright then"
several minutes later we got in after so much traffic on the way into the school and looking for
somewhere to park. Karina was issued her certificate.
"I have something for you" father said to Karina as he handed her a gold necklace.
"Thank you so much dad" karina said as she hugged him tight and I and mother just stood smiling.
I was happy she had her whole family here with her, she deserved it and she really was happy.
We decided to go out for dinner to celebrate, it was amazing to be with everyone. Who would have
thought I would be able to experience a day like this.
As we sat in the restaurant eating.
"I am so happy you all are here, I couldn't have asked for a better convocation gift" karina said. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"We are also excited to be here to celebrate with you my darling" mother said
"You deserve it and more" father added.
"Do you remember how you and your sister wouldn't let your dad leave for work because you two
always wanted to go with him"mother reminded.
"Until he tells us to go and wear our slippers and he leave us" I added and we all laughed.
"True, true" Karina confirmed.
"It wasn't intentional my dears" father said and we all laughed.
"It was and you still got us everytime with the same trick" I said laughing.
My phone began to beep and it was Hawa calling. I excused myself from the table before answering
the call.
"Hello dear" hawa said excitedly.
"You remember I told you I was going to put in a good word for you with my boss"
"Yes I remember"
"He went through your CV and I also told him about how you passed the previous exam and he wants
to hire you to work in the hospital's branch in Lagos" Hawa said excitedly.
"Wow,that's amazing.thank you so so much" I said then immediately after ending the call. I went back
to tell everyone the good news.
"I got the job!!" I exclaimed excitedly
"Wow, that's amazing. I knew you would" mother said with a smile.
"Congrats dear"
"I guess that's one more thing to celebrate now" Karina said with a smile.
Everything was finally falling into place and it couldn't have been better.
