"Zel, we did not inform you as we dont want to worry you there and It was decided by the two and everyone." her mom.

"Not to worry me! why? am I not part of this family?" she said cutting her mother.

"No, it is not like that, your elder brother final grade last school year did not make it through the grade set by the scholarship. Your cousin had a little accident during their training in which injured his left arm. Which can't make him to play basketball. He was then kick out as he was not able to take part at the tryout so he didn't make it to ranking and kick out." Her aunt explain as she came back from the kitchen.

"Is cousin fine now? How was his arm? she ask. "It was healed now we already accepted it. As there is nothing we can do about since it has already happen." Her Auntie said. "Well now I lost my work but I do still have some savings. I'll think about looking a way to have income her." Denzel said.

"No! you should relax for now since you are home now. You look thinner than when you were still with us. Don't bother looking for work for now just give yourself some rest you have been working for almost two years afer all." Her mom said to Her.

"No mom! I'll find way to have some income for our family, I'm back now but it didn't mean I'll stop helping my family. Especially now elder brother who will be at his last year in college and cousin who is in third year in college." Denzel insist.
