"Your friends! Her mom asked surprisingly.
"Yes mom, they are my friends,"she replied with a smile.
"Ms can you come closer so I can examine the stitch? she asked, pointing to Gabriella, who moved closer to sit on a seat which was screwed a little bit high above the normal height.
Her mom was nice and caring with the way she was examining the stitch and she was also good with her job few seconds after she was done loosening the stitch then advised Gabriella to keep cleaning the surface till it heals properly she also prescribed an antibiotic drug for her then we left her office thanking her.

As we left to return to the lodge Gabriella had this confused look on her face.
"What is it? I asked her.
"I'm just confused on how that girl with multi-coloured hair will have such a calm woman as her mom. Gabriella said with this funny face.
"I really thought I was the only one who was having that feeling when she said her mom works in the sickbay. I was expecting multi-colored hair also on her but she is calm and friendly, she got her friendly character from her mom that's for sure. And I like her mom" I said smiling.
"We will call our new found friend later to assist us in appreciating her mom for her kind assistance today.
Soon Gabriella phone rang then she picked the phone answering the caller on the other end then the call ended.
"Mom is on her way already" Gabriella said as she dropped her phone.
"That means she will be in college soon, let's go to the lodge to change our clothes because I can perceive that sickbay antiseptic all over my body. I don't know about you but it seems you also smell antiseptic," I said, covering my nose.
"That's not funny" Gabriella replied, applying spray all over.
...........................…......................
As we got to the lodge my phone rang picking the call it was my dad.
"Hey dad" I said with this confused look on my face.
"Hey daughter," he replied.
"Dad it's been a while I heard from you, Hope you are good? I asked him.
"Yh I'm, How are you coping with college life? He asked.
"I'm already adapted to college life" I said with a smile.
" I just called to check up on my baby and also know how she is coping," Dad said.
"Awnnn I appreciate my regard to mom and also tell her I await her call" I said to dad as I ended the call.
"Paris I am done dressing can you hurry up with your dressing because mom will be here any moment from now" Gabriella said checking the time from her wristwatch.
"Okk I will be done soon, have you called Gabriel to inform him your mom is close by? I asked Gabriella.
"I will be calling him now," Gabriella replied.
I went to the restroom seconds after I was done with bathing then started dressing I planned on wearing a decent outfit because first impression matters a lot even though it's not really a first impression we have spoken over the phone once which she appraised me, I wore a pink net lace gown which was on my knee and a black colour sandal I was still packing my hair when Gabriella's phone rang it was her mom so we knew her mom was already in college as she picked the call we told her we were on our way to meeting her. We immediately left the lodge for the administrative building that was where Gabriella told her mom to pack and await us. As we got closer we noticed Gabriel came earlier than us.
"Mom!!!! Gabriella ran hugging her so tight as she came down from her latest Chevrolet Evc, they were almost same height Gabriella and her mom while Gabriel was a bit taller than them.
"Gud afternoon ma" I greeted her.
"Gud afternoon, You must be Paris? she asked with a smile.
"Yes ma" I replied.
"Come give me a huge paris," she said, stretching her hands forward.
Their mom was a pretty tall fair woman Gabriella looks more like her mom, she was on a two piece cloth a trouser with a long sleeve shirt her hair was long up to her waist, her body spray was expensive I knew that for sure because my mom once used that body spray seems Gabriel got his love for expensive sprays from his mom. Their mom was checking the loosened stitched area on Gabriella's face.
"Keep cleaning the surface of the injury until it heals well" her mom said after she was done examining it.
We were speaking and walking to the car as we entered I noticed a man was inside the car with the way Gabriella and Gabriel greeted him I knew he was Mason their mom's husband, he looks calm and friendly because he gave both of them a wide hugging and was asking them of college life and how they were coping with the change.
"Mom, guess what? Gabriella asked her mom.
"Baby you know i'm not that good at suggesting so tell me I'm all ears tell me" her mom replied with this smile.
"Gabriel has a girlfriend," Gabriella said with this smile all over her face.
"Really" her mom said turning to Gabriel "you need to tell me you were now in a relationship" she said smilingly.
Smiling "Mom I had planned to tell you in fact my girlfriend is on her way here before the journalist did her job" he said, staring at Gabriella who was still smiling uncontrollably.
