Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 Dear brother

Sunlight was seeping through the curtains of his room, he changed his position to continue sleeping comfortably on his king-sized bed but his bedside alarm went on.

"shit"

he reached for the table where the alarm was to turn it off but he couldn't off it. He was getting irritated with the sound, he opened his eyes and sat on the bed upset with the clock for disturbing his romantic dream.

"arrghhhhh, why did you have to ruin everything"

he turned off the alarm and memories of the previous day started flooding his brain.

"shit how did I get here, I was supposed to wait for him to wake up"

"aww, brother carried me" he blushed at the thought and smiled to himself.

"Dear brother, you've been my hero since mum passed away, how can I ever repay you"

he hurriedly got up took his bath and dashed off to his room.

"Good morning Nana", he shouted as he passed the kitchen, going towards his brother's room downstairs,

"Greg are you looking for George? he already left for work" Nana shouted for Greg to hear

Greg halted just before his brother's door.

he turned back and walked to meet Nana in the kitchen, he sat down on one of the kitchen stools.

"Dear God help my brother he's all I have"

"really what about me," Nana asked pouting her lips. She looked cute acting like a kid. Nana was a little over fifty but she still looks like she was in her late thirties, she was a slim and short woman, with her long black hair and ever-smiling lips she looked like an angel.

"Did I say that out, Nana I have you too I didn't mean to make you feel bad it's just I don't understand my brother lately"

"it's ok, I understand, cheer up, everything's going to be fine remember you have to go meet Natasha at the airport by noon "

"oh yh, big sist Natty is coming back from her concert today"

"yh, my daughter will be home soon, she said smiling brighter than she usually does, showing her nice set of sparkling white teeth.

"Nana can I call u mom, he asked with pleading eyes knowing full well that she wouldn't mind, since his mother died she had come into his life and had played the part of a good mother and they became successful because of her sacrifices and immense contribution even though they were not in any way related addeddedddd

"I thought you'll never ask, of course, you can, I'll love to hear you call me mum"

"Dearest mum, your cute end famous son is starving". They both laughed heartily

Nana served the food and was about to leave.

"mum, have u had breakfast before"

" 'smiles' no son, I'll just eat later"

"mum come join me, I want to eat with you, please mum, your son is begging"

"oh my, how can I refuse this and some son of mine," she said pulling a chair out, Greg helped her dish food on her plate and breakfast began, and hatting merrily.

"Since you came back from Spain after the shoot, you seem to have been looking a lot more handsome? is there any secret? have you fallen in love?". she kept asking.

"well mom, I did meet a girl I like but am not quite sure she even noticed m said looking all pitiful and sad

"How would she not notice you? my handsome son, hahaha, she doesn't know what she just ignored"

" Ewww, mum you're making me blush"

"ok ok, I'll stop teasing you, you look so cute when you're like this you know, I wish I could just marry you"

Greg turns his face in embarrassment

"Am just kidding son, I have to go now, I need to get ready, the ladies that registered for my cooking class will be coming today for extra lessons?" she said looking directly into his eyes " I made sure to invite Melisa" she saw him gulp and left laughing loudly "they'll be here time any time soon" she half yelled.

'oh no, am not prepared to meet that girl again, I have to escape, she is a thorn in the flesh, I can't let me meet me at home' he thought, his train of thought was halted when he heard the doorbell ring.

*ding dong

*ding dong

"Dearest Son, go get the door," Nana said loudly

"ok mum"

'it better not be Lisa it better not be Lisa, please don't be Lisa' he prayed silently till he reached the door, he opened the door and saw five mature women, with Lisa not in sight, he looked around and when he confirmed that Lisa wasn't here he smiled"

"Good Morning ladies, come on in, Nana has been expecting your arrival"

"Good morning, thank you" they all chorused moving inside.

He sighed, a sigh of disappointment rather than relief, 'why am I like this I should be happy that she isn't here he thought ' oh well maybe I just miss her naughtiness, hahaha'

"Greggy, wait don't close the door," a white-skinned and-haired lady said wearing big sunglasses. The familiar scent filled his nostrils, he looked at her carefully, she was wearing a big hat a pair of blue trousers and a black shirt that compliments her colour nicely.

"Lisa?"

"Yeah, it's me, long time no see, how are you?"

"yh, it's been a long I saw you too, Am fine by the way, come in"

"well, I can see that you look delicious" she replied taking off her sunglasses as she moved towards him " Now tell me, did you miss me?"

"Lisa! Where are you, come quick we're about to begin" Nana half yelled,

'pheeewwww, saved by Nana my mama, hehehe' he thought.

Lisa smiled and walked past him.

'He's still the same old friend, so shy' she thought

"Am coming Nana?" she said trying to increase her pace.

No longer having anything to do, Greg went upstairs to relax, thinking of the previous day and what he could do to help his dearest brother.
