The aggressive ringing of the phone woke Abigail from her sleep.

She grabbed her phone, glancing at the caller, seeing it was a video call. Abigail squinted her eyes as she read the name. "Scarlett."

Abigail yawned as she got up from the bed, grabbed her phone, and walked to the bathroom.

She clicked on the answer Icon and set the phone on the faucet.

"You're just waking up?" Scarlett asked.

"I work overnight remember?" Abigail said as she turned on the tap washing her face with the water.

Last night had gone well or maybe... Cause Blake didn't seem interested in her, it looked as though he was back to ignoring her. He hadn't even stayed in the club for more than two hours before leaving and Linda?

She had been smart enough to promise to keep the secret the woman had told her. She was good at getting words from people, one of her hidden talents.

"How's Blake Knight?" Scarlett asked.

"You shouldn't be asking of him. Things aren't going well," Abigail replied lowly.

"Yeah, there's alway

    "Scarlett!" Stella called as she ran to hug Scarlett who walked into the dining room."I thought you weren't going to join us for dinner," Abigail said as she looked away from Scarlett and entered the kitchen. "You didn't even have lunch." She opened the fridge and took out the bottle of soda."I had no appetite," Scarlett replied ruffling her younger sister's hair. "How are you, Stella? How was school?" She asked the six-year-old girl."Fine. I told my friends I would introduce you to them. They commented on Abigail's appearance." Stella answered with a bright smile."I'll sure come over to show off my looks, too," Scarlett agreed teasingly, and Stella giggled."Come here, It's bedtime." Alice walked into the dining room. "You already had dinner right?" She questioned walking away with her daughter."Alice made quite a dish, because of you." Abigail placed the juice on the table taking the cups from the tray."It was a tough day." Scarlett pulled out the chair as she had her seat."W

    "You know you can't continue laying in bed forever?" Abigail said entering the room with a tray of oatmeal.She placed it on the bedside table, glancing at Scarlett. "And are you this way because of a man? C'mon." She sat on the bed, pulling the blanket off Scarlett, who was covering herself completely with it.Scarlett turned over so Abigail wouldn't see her face, but Abigail scoffed and forced her to face her. "Hey! Did he say get off him or he told you he isn't into you? You're overthinking it, girl...""I know," Scarlett mumbled. "He didn't say a word. But who receives a kiss from a lady and suddenly looks utterly dumb? Not like he was a nerd-looking fellow.""Yeah. He's a dipshit. Deserves to get slapped. Oh, I swear I'm gonna hit him so hard the next we meet.""What's more? Alice saw us in that awkward position. God, I'm such a loser." Scarlett said frustratedly, throwing her legs in the air."Uhm, she's proud of you." Abigail adjusted herself properly on the bed. "Go for what y

    "OMG. That movie was a blast!" Abigail proclaimed as they walked out of the cinema hall with people still having to talk about the movie they finished watching."I told you I have great taste in movies," Scarlett mentioned."I'd see if I can visit here again with my husband. He loves Nigerian movies; he made me watch 'King of Boys' while playfully claiming that he has Nigerian roots," Alice said, causing the ladies to laugh."Oh, it's 11:00 P.m.; I guess no more outing, Scarlett?" Abigail turned to Scarlett nodding her head secretly at Alice."Uh. I guess so." Scarlett shrugged."Did y'all plan to visit the club again?" Alice stopped on her track giving them a motherly, strict look. "Gosh, who's that man that's gonna put you under serious responsibility for you to realize club is not the real outing? You wouldn't even find a perfect husband in the club." The woman nagged looking from Abigail to Scarlett."We didn't plan on visiting the club, though. Please don't stress yourself." Abig

    "Wake up!!" Alice shouted as she flung the door open, staring at her two daughters sleeping on the bed, their legs were placed on each other, and both of them were too close as if hugging in their sleep.Have they not quit this act they had possessed since childhood? Alice knocked on the door as she shouted again. "It's morning sleepyheads!"Scarlett muffled. "Just a minute.""You must be kidding; it's noon already," Alice said, as she walked towards them, her hand resting on her waist as she took the pillows away from their head."Ah... Mum." Abigail called as she opened her eyes."You ladies aren't in your teens. You should be the one asking your kids to get up for school already. Really!""I think I'm wide awake already," Abigail yawned. "Good morning.""It's afternoon." The woman corrected."Yeah... Noon." Abigail got up on her feet as she walked towards the bathroom entering it.She turned on the tap as she rinsed her face with the water, before taking a glimpse at her reflection

    Night had fallen, and the sisters stood by the door, bidding their mother goodbye. Abigail adjusted the hem of her skimpy black dress, which was the same as the one Scarlett was wearing."Be home early!" Alice shouted after them as they hurried out of the house seeing that Martins was waiting for them in the car.The ladies got in and Martins drove off immediately."Punctual aren't you?" Abigail glanced at Martins from the rearview mirror."I had no much thing to do" Martins replied."You could learn to ignore Abigail you know..." Scarlett whispered and Abigail shot her a glare before looking out of the car window to the city.Not much difference between her first drive in New York and now. It had the same vibrant city light with beautiful vibes except that Ottawa was more quieter.Especially the club. Yeah, they were on their way there, and it wasn't their first day going to a club in Ottawa, so they already knew what to expect, except that Martins was still having one or two trouble

    "The last we arrived in Ottawa, was it last two years?" Scarlett asked her hand around Abigail's shoulder."Nope... It was your twenty-sixth birthday. Four years ago." Abigail replied as they walked out of the airport."Haha... You do not need to remind me I'll be thirty soon..." Scarlett groaned tiredly. "I hope mum wouldn't go about asking when I'd be getting married. Who gets married at thirty these days?""Sorry to demotivate you but she would, and I'd stand by the fact. I thought you'd marry Ronald, you broke up with him out of the blue and I don't know the reason until now. You two could have had your first child already you know?" Abigail said taking her gaze away from Scarlett, as they paused in their steps."You wanna know why? And you promise to take my side when mum starts with her marriage talks?""You're so good at making an agreement," Abigail smirked.Scarlett breathed in; she better start telling Abigail all the secrets she had kept away from her. She was in Canada to
