What you're about to read will put a smile on your face, so relax and enjoy this piece.
It was a bright Friday morning after had rained the previous night. My Mom already promised to make white rice and fried plantain for us.
I was in the bed when all the chores in the house had been done. I have two beautiful sisters and a little brother who is now a big boy. So I see no reason to get up so early for any chores since there aren't many things to be done.
I was in the bed when the aroma of the delicious food woke me up. I stood up like I was given strength from the food realm. I walked to the kitchen and smiled at everyone so I can be on their good side and get enough fried plantain.
Mom dish the food but gave me equal plantain to my little brother. I asked why and the response was "You didn't do any chores this morning" I was given 11 fried plantains.
I took my food reluctantly and went to the dining table but that didn't stop me from finishing the food with a big smile on my face.
I went to work and decided to have fried plantain and beans for dinner. I told the lady selling the food to sell plantain for 200naira. She gave me 3 plantains and said things are cost. Whaoo, it was a shock to me. So the free plantain I have been eating are this expensive.
I got home and told my mom everything that happened. Since that day, she give me 6 plantains and ask me to pay if I want more since I wasn't appreciating what I had😂😂.
Since that day, I started buying plantain so I can get more but my sisters always add extra for me anytime they are in the kitchen.
Here is my beautiful mom. The power holder that brings our family together. I'm wishing her a happy women's day.
Here is to my beautiful little sister. She has grown up so well. She is my best friend and she tells me about everything that's going on with her. Now she treats me like our dad and asks for money from me a lot. I always give her so I can drive those boys away
Here is my big sister. The cook of the family. She can refuse any errand but she will not refuse to cook for the family. It was the love she showed to her younger siblings that made us love ourselves the more.
To all the ladies in my family and here on Hive, I'm wishing you all a Happy international women's day. You're the source of this world and I want you all to know you deserve the best love anyone can give. I love you all.
