"Wow, grandpapa cooked breakfast today! huraaaaay!!". He cheerfully skipped down the stairs and made for my third plate of food, I quickly s.n.a.t.c.hed the plate from the table and stood up quickly.

" Hey, get your own plate of food Bro, I'm not sharing my papa's precious food with you". I said cheekily as he started to raced me around the dining table for my plate of food. This boy is just too troublesome, I really need to find him a girlfriend.

"There's still enough food in the kitchen Mike, stop chasing my baby around like a child". Granddad intervened the very minute the race began.

" Tell him papa, he needs a girlfriend ", I said breathlessly and sat down for a while only to resume when he got closer.

" What do I need a girlfriend for when I have you Vee? ", He finally relented and strolled to the kitchen.

" To get married and make babies, h.e.l.lo?" I rolled my eyes as hr chuckled and disappeared into the kitchen.

"I already have Dayo, there's no need to have more babies".He said as he appeared with a plate of noodles. I shook my head in wonderment,

There's no reasoning with this man. Since I can remember, I've never seen Michael with a girl, sometimes I wonder if he's gay.

" Don't be a moron Bro, Dayo would need a brother or sister to play with". I said and brought my fork over to Mike's plate to taste his food.

"You accepted my name for her!!!... don't touch my food, papa do you see how Vee eats like a pig?, she just 3 mountains of food and she's still eyeing my tiny noodles" Grandpa just chuckled and continued to read his newspaper.

"First I was a cow and now I'm a pig, not fair bro, it's not like I like being a glutton, Dayo is the cause". I pouted and wiped off the imaginary tears from my face.

" Awwwww Vee, I didn't mean it that way, you can have all the plate dear ". I immediately s.n.a.t.c.hed the plate of food from him, he fell for it

" Hah!, Bro is just so cute, thank you for the meal". I laughed with glee and started to eat the food very quickly, afraid that he might s.n.a.t.c.h it from me. He looked at me angrily

"Papa, all Vee does is to bully me and you're not saying anything about it, I'm heartbroken *sobs*"

"It's called emotional blackmail bro, not bullying" I smiled gleefully, I was almost done eating the plate of noodles.

"You should take up acting as a profession, I'm sure you'll win an Oscar real soon, Papa I'll go freshen up, I have to drop this pig to the hospital and catch my flight, tell Vee to get ready too, I don't want to miss my flight". He said and walked out of the room in mock anger, I laughed heartily at his malice, Michael can't stay mad at me for too long. I finished off the noodles and went upstairs to get dressed.

I wore a pink floral gown and a denim jacket,I packed my hair up in a messy ponytail, there wasn't any point in using makeup so I didn't bother with it, I put on pink sneakers and hesitated before sliding on my wedding band.

I came downstairs, Michael was already waiting, there was a little more teasing as Mike refused to talk to me, grandpa was a little worried but I a.s.sured him that we'll end up talking before the end of the journey.

The journey took approximately 30 minutes and Mike was silent all through. Is he really not going to talk to me till he leaves?

" Bro I'm sorry OK,it was just an armless joke, I didn't know it'd p.i.s.s you off " I looked dejected as my brother's smirk returned.

"Hah!, you're such a sweet little sister. I got an apology even if I wasn't offended, so tell me who the sweet one is now. I made a face and he laughed hard, why does he think being sweet is an insult?.

The car arrived at the entrance of the hospital, it was finally time for Michael to go, it's been less than 24 hours since we met and he's already leaving me, it didn't seem fair.

" I'll miss you Bro ". I was near to tears

" Are you sure you're going to miss me?". He raised an eyebrow questioningly.

"Of course, only G.o.d knows how much I've missed you, and just when I found you again, you'll be gone for 3 months. Can't you wait a little longer?". I was beginning to sound like a broken record.

" Hey Vee, don't be a cry baby. I'll be back very soon OK?, papa is here for you. I'll also make sure of you and Dayo's safety, I promise I'll stay a little longer when I come back and don't forget, I'm just a phone call away". He gently kissed my forehead and ushered me out of the car, then he handed me a cellphone.

"Papa's number is saved on it, if you need anything just give him a call, bye love, send my kisses to Dayo". I didn't know why I felt really lonely watching his car move slowly away from my sight. I turned around only when I couldn't see the hind view of the car anymore and walked dejectedly into the hospital.

" I have an appointment with doctor Eve, can you please direct me to her?". I mumbled politely on getting to the reception. The cat eyed receptionist nodded and placed a phone call.

"Your name please?"

"Vee Vee B...Brown". I almost forgot the name I booked the appointment with.

" OK ma'am, please have your seat, she's currently busy with a patient". She gestured to the rows of chairs that was behind me, I nodded gently and went to take a seat.

Few minutes later..

"Mrs. Vee Vee Brown, you can see the doctor now. 18th floor, 4th office by the left". I thanked her and made my way to the elevator, soon enough, I found the doctor's office.

" Good morning Mrs. Brown, you look pale today, What happened?". The doctor's smile crumpled immediately, I guess I was still sulking about Michael's departure.

"I'm very well ma'am, just not in a good mood".

" Hmmmm, you know it's not good for your health, it would affect the baby, anyways where's Mr. Brown?". The question threw me off guard, I totally forgot to plan a believable lie.

"Erm...actually.... the thing is......"

"Her husband is right here doctor". I turned back shockingly to see Mr. Gorgeous in all his handsomeness. It took me 30 seconds to recover from shock. Just what in the world is he doing here
