“Daddy…Good morning”He greeted but got no response. “Daddy”He called once again.His sister,Margaret rushed out of her room shouting”Jakeee!!!!”.She was happy to see her elder brother.
”Maggie …You’ve turned to a big girl”He replied smiling.
“Hmm..What about you?”She said timidly.
“Don’t talk to me like that,i’m three years older than you”Jake teased and laughed.
“Hmmm…and so?”The girl said laughed. “Anyway how’s JABU?(Joseph Ayo Babalola university)”He asked.
“JABU’S fine”She said.
“You two must be very stupid”Their father roared. Jake lifted up his face looking at him.
“Daddy now”Margaret said sadly.
“If you call me again..You won’t make it in life”Their father cursed her.Jake smiled.
“And you..I knew you have been cursed..Right from your birth you have been the worst”Their father continued in his loud thundering voice.
“Spare me that!!!..What have we done to deserve curses?…”Jake roared back at him.
“Are you talking to me?…How dare you?!!!”Their father said getting up.
“How dare me?…How dare you too curse us for no reason?!!”Jake fired back.
