Elsa took a cab home and she paid him off after he had dropped her. She hummed as she opened their gate and walked in.
High volumed music welcomed her, it was a hip hop music and it was deafening, This can disturb the neighborhood as there’s no event going on.
Elsa wondered what’s going on but she decided to go in and see for herself. She walked in and meet a lot of people in their sitting room.
About 10 people, if not more and they were dancing while some was sitting with their partner. The sitting room leaks of alcohol and smokes.
“I’m definitely in the wrong house” Elsa said. But no! She’s in the right house, this is her house.
She walked to the device playing the music and then quickly switched it off. All gaze turns to her.
“What are you doing, Elsa!!” Marina yelled at her.

“Come here Marina!”Elsa said and grabbed her hands. She’s her senior with just 5 months after all.
She dragged her to her room and Marina took her hands off hers immediately.
“What do you think you’re doing?” she yelled.
“Where’s dad? And Mom?” Elsa asked.
Marina scoffed. “They travelled, they are both on 1 month and some weeks trips”
“What!, What do you mean?” Elsa said beating her lashes.
“Like I said, the two lovers went on a trip , and you know what that means? A lot of hang out and you’d better join me or back out. Excuse me” She pushed her out of the way and walked out.
Elsa scoff and sat on the bed, dazed for some seconds. Dad went on a one month trip and didn’t even consider telling me? Is this why the atmosphere seems good in the morning? Why didn’t dad tell me about his trip, it’s not like I’m going to refuse, so why wasn’t I informed.” Elsa wondered.
And this is their innocent Marina that they trusted so much, that they believe is still intact and a good girl, they just gave her the time and opportunity to get Completly laid. Nii! With the loud music, Elsa told herself that she can’t stay here. She was greatful she had Olivia to meet up with today.

“Sure, that’s it then” Elsa smiled as they both walk over to have their sit.

“You don’t know his name?” Olivia asked.
“Not at all, when I asked, he told to find out myself. But now he told me he’d tell me this morning but I have to leave and couldn’t wait up” Elsa said.
“I think your love story is about to start” Olivia laughs.
“No, not yet. But I must say I really feel something for him, you know how scared I am about guys after Freddie right? But this man, I just feel so comfortable with him despite not knowing him” Elsa said.
“About Freddie…” Olivia said.
“What about him? He’s the last person I want to hear his name or even see” Elsa hissed.

“What!!” Elsa trembled.
