Only a fool with no self-respect would deny their roots. If you make me angry, I swear, you’ll go to Nigeria to stay, and if you upset me, you'll stay there forever with the country wandering."
The intensified crying made me turn quickly. A strikingly beautiful young woman, a black beauty who didn’t resemble the older woman physically except for some slight family resemblance, was there. She looked around seventeen years old by my estimate. However, knowing how people with her body type often hide their age, I couldn’t be certain. She was petite and short, like a younger sister of mine (😂🤣 just saying). Despite her crying, which made her eyes appear swollen, they still shone brightly behind her thin glasses. Her long eyelashes and elegant nose (like Bilyn Abdull🙄—someone might disagree, but don’t be jealous 😒😜) made her quite the beauty. Tears streamed down her cheeks like an open faucet. The woman scolding her gave her a harsh look and said sharply,
"Swallow those tears before I come over there and deal with you, foolish girl."
With difficulty, she tried to stop crying, but the tears kept flowing. In a shaky voice, she looked at the older woman and pleaded, "Mamie, I’m sorry, I promise I’ll stop doing everything you and Abie disapprove of."
