After few minutes the Maid brought the rice for Mama Princess. She is happy to see the food especially when she saw the big chicken on the rice. Full of smiles she said 'Ha! thank you oo eh! This one too much for me na' 'No, please just manage it' Mrs Johnson said 'Manage ke. Okay o' Mama Princess said as she starts to eat. Still smiling. The Maid brings Princess's food to her, Princess collected the food and sits on the rug to eat. 'No, sit on the chair my dear' Mrs Johnson said. 'Let her sit on the rug ma, it's better that way' Mama Princess said. 'Oh no, let her sit on the chair' Mrs Johnson said. 'Okay o, oya come sit for chair here' Mama Princess ordered as she points at a chair beside her.
As they eat their food Mrs Johnson excuses herself to one of the rooms. After eating the food and doing justice to the chicken she picks the ones in-between her teeth. Princess is still eating slowly. 'Oya eat quick quick o. Wetin you dey eat since!' She shouts at her. 'Let her enjoy her food Mama Princess' Mrs Johnson said as she comes from the room. 'Okay o, eat your food well well no rush o. This place na your new home you hear.' Mama Princess said as she faces Princess trying to let her feel relaxed, Princess opened her mouth to cry but the look on her mother's face made her look down to her food and kept quiet. 'Don't worry she will be fine here' Mrs Johnson said standing beside her 'I know she go dey fine. I wan start to dey go' Mama Princess stands adjusting her wrapper. 'Before you go take this' Mrs Johnson brought out an envelope with money. 'Ha! No o how I go collect that e go just be as if I come sell my pikin keep it I no want' deep down she wants the money 'Take it, it is a gift to you I am giving you as a gift' Mrs Johnson said 'Okay o if you say so' Shecollects the money 'Thank you ma. You don really try for me o' Mama Princess said 'It's nothing Mama Princess take care ma' Mrs Johnson said 'Thank you o bye bye' Mama Princess said as she moves towards the door. She looks back 'Princess bye bye' She waves her hand.

'Greet Princess Father o' Mama Princess said as they gets outside 'He go hear' As she was going she stares at the car coming in as Sule opens the door for the vehicle, she walks out of the house happily. 'Eh! Thank God o' She opens the envelope. 'Yeah see money!' She looks around to ensure no one is watching. She quickly wraps the envelope around her waist with her wrapper.

In Mrs Johnson's house the driver helps the boys to get out of the car. They run to their mother 'Mummy!' They hug Mrs Johnson. 'How is school today my lovely sons 'Fine' Joe said 'Not too fine' John said 'Why my dear' She asks him as she was worried but John smiled and said 'I am just joking mum' 'You this naughty boy you've started again ehn.' She said, relieved 'Let's go inside there is somebody inside waiting for us' She said as she bends whispered to them 'Who?' They asked 'When you get inside you will see.' She looks up to call the driver 'Ehn ehn, Taju don't forget to wash the car' 'Yes ma' The driver answered. They all enter the house...
