Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

 I was driven to my house by my personal driver, as I walked into the elevator, I wore my head phone and played a very high volume music, so I didn't hear anything that was going on in my house as I walked in, I just responded to everything with a. 

 "Good afternoon", imagining all they would be doing is greeting me, as I made my way to my room, I slammed my head into a very high stack of cartoon, and the whole cartoon pile, which was filled with every sort of iron, copper and tin products rained down on me. I drew my head phone from my ears in pain.

 "What the hell", I squealed, my Mum hearing the super loud noise the cartoons made ran into the living room.

 "Oh! Sorry my darling, I didn't mean for this to happen", Mum said while trying to help me up.

 "Vanessa, I placed you in charge of all these, so something like this won't happen", Mum turned and told Vanessa who was staring into her phone being unaware of what just happened.

 "Oka, I love you too Mum", Vanessa told my mum.

 "Alex, I placed you in charge of your elder sister... and this situation, so that things like this won't happen" my Mum said to my small sister; Alexander.

 "I tried to stop him, I said; 'Stop, Stop, you will get yourself injured dear brother" Alexander said.

 "That was literally a whisper, and for a second, I will just act like I am not sure that you were smiling when watching me walk to my doom", I frowned to Alex.

 "So we are all actors and actresses now, aren't we", Alex said without and expression on her surprisingly very white face.

 On my way to the stairs my Mum said.

 "And Jonathan, your dad is waiting for you in his office, so go shower, change and go see him", Yeah, how I wish that memo slipped or tripped and fell out of my Mum's mind, but now, I have to walk into my doom.

 "Have a sit my boy" My Dad told me when I entered his office, and met him staring through is glass wall, sipping coffee, he wore a sky blue suit and a tie striped with navy blue, sky blue and white.

 My Dad loved the best arrangement, and he has a dream everything, like a Dream boat, a Dream holiday, a Dream house, a Dream pet, well that doesn't count because his dream pet is a blue fire breathing dragon which is the size of a dog.

 "Do you think I have cameras all over all our houses?" He asked me.

 "Dad, I know the only place you might not have cameras in. is every restroom and personal rooms in this house" I replied confidently.

 "Then why did you hide your last section school result from me?" He asked again, but this time I gave no answer.

 "You may say you were afraid, but I know you Jonathan, with everything a boy could ever need and want. So tell me Kelvin Jonathan. Why did you hide your last session exam results from me?"

 "I will go get..."

 "Just sit down, I have a copy of it. So let's go over it shall we? So I would be sure I am seeing it right" Then, Dad pulled out a piece of paper from the folders that were on his desk.

 "Okay let's see, apparently you have a B- thrice, a C+ twice, and only one A, which isn't even an A+, the rest; C+. Now tell me, where is the almighty Jonathan, where is the boy that once was the front page of Forbes magazines. Kelvin Jonathan Oche! where is he?!" My Dad banged his desk.

 "I am sorry", I cried and tried to make a puppy dog eye.

 "Sorry for yourself Jonathan, you use to be a smart boy, you use to be a boy that knew all subject in all courses". I used to be a NERD.

 "I am going to pass down the J.I industries to you one day, but I am afraid I won't do that, if you keep on getting grades like C+ or even B+, all my Jonathan gets, is an A or an A+", My Dad raised his first finger to the level of his shoulder.

 "Number one, that's what I expect, that's who my son is, he is the first and not the second, and to hell with third. You need to get your head back in the game. So I am not truly sorry to say, but from now on, no PS 5, no outing , no Social Media, and no...Internet",

 "Dad...But!"

 "No buts either, only Saturdays that you will be allowed to use any of those things, understand or not, I will give you only today, so go enjoy all those privileges while you can. Dismissed" He boldly sent me out of his office, how, how will I still have a life without the internet, I want to just relax and... what's going on, on Instagram, so as I walked to my room, I played music in my head phone and logged into Instagram.

 In a very big apartment building Mrs. Diego apartment was located at the second floor, upper right of the building, Camilla and her mother was having a conversation.

 "Camilla, I forgot to ask you, who was that young man I saw you with, in school today?" Mrs. Diego asked with a teasing smile on her face.

 "Momma IT'S actually not what you think" Camilla said, trying to convince her mother that they was actually nothing going on.

 "Yeah go ahead, and act like every other kids, not telling parents anything, keeping secrets, well Camilla, I can keep secrets to, unless ' IT'S not what I think' right" Mrs. Diego grind.

 "Mum, can we just move to another topic? Like how to get our dinner", Camilla tried to change the topic.

 "Okay, whatever baby, but just know that; no matter where you guys so called friendship goes, I am not gonna be any sort of 'Party popper", Mrs. Diego clarified.

 "Momma, dinner", Camilla cried.

 "Okay, okay, Mr. Pat owes me a favor, take some food from him, but don't empty his shop though, cause everything you're gonna collect will be on credit, you hear?", Mrs. Diego asked.

 "Okay Momma", Camilla smiled as she tried to stand and go do what her mother told her to, Mrs. Diego had an idea to make trouble.

 "Please, that your friend, do you by any chance, have his picture, I didn't get a good look at him in the video call, Please Camilla, just to make me smile", Mrs. Diego tried to push Camilla to do one thing she didn't like.

 Camilla went on Instagram and searched 'Kelvin Jonathan', she saw a lot of fake accounts, but she could tell the difference because my real account was 'Kelvin Jonathan_Gold Boy360' and that account had a blue verification sign.

 "Wow just look at your friend" Mrs. Diego when her daughter showed her my pictures.

 "He goes Golfing and playing tennis, Mm, just give me your phone so I can look at his pictures while you go get ready to go", Mrs. Diego suggested.

 "Okay", Camilla agreed and gave her mother her phone and went into another room.

 Mrs. Diego followed me on Instagram, and sent me a friend request on Facebook with Camilla's account. When I saw the friend she sent me thinking it was Camilla who sent me the friend request, I quickly accepted it before she changes her mind, and cancels it. Sending me a friend request was something I didn't think Camilla would never do in a Million years, talk less of accepting my friend request, I sent her a message right away but didn't get a reply.

 I went to my balcony to take in fresh air but instead developed the urge to go have burgers and quality shrimps, so I told my personal driver to take me to the nearest fancy restaurant.

 "Momma I'm ready, please can I have my phone back now" Camilla requested and stretched her hand.

 "Okay" Mrs. Diego gave her daughter back her phone. And Camilla went on her way to Mr. Pat's store.

 I was in my limousine looking out of the window to the sky, wondering how I will possibly live without doing all this, without burgers, without going shopping, and then I saw 'CAMILLA' coming out from an apartment building , she used the back iron stairs for a reason, which I didn't know.

 "Kenneth, I will be right back", I opened the door of my limousine and told my Driver, immediately I stepped out, cameras were everywhere, paparazzi were just waiting for me to step out of my limousine, so I ran out of the flashy scene covering my face with my hands.

 "Where are you going Sir?!" Kenneth yelled.

 "To answer nature's call...!" I shouted from a distance.
