We got back to our house in the city a little later in the evening. I went straight to my room, locked the door and fell on my bed. I pulled a picture of Ada that she had given to me and stared at it. I had met so many other girls whom i had infatuated over, i fell crazily for them and when we lost connection, it had always seemed to me like i would never love another but then one thing over another, i always got back to my feet quickly and in search of new love. But from the first day, I set my eyes on her, i knew Ada was going to be a different case. There was something about her that moved me. When you love someone so dearly, you can't possibly say why, all you know is that feeling is there and they just seem to be perfect, that was how i felt about her.
A knock on my door brought me out of my thoughts.
"Yes, who is it?" I asked with a frown
"Its me"
She didn't need to say her name for me to know it was our last born, princess. I hid the picture in my locker and opened the door, princess dragged her teddy behind her and jumped on my bed. I stared at her and she looked back, giving me her charming smile which always knocks me out.
"So?" i asked trying to sound harsh
"Nothing" she said giggling. I smiled back at her and lifted her up from the bed. Princess was the last child of our family and she was just 4 years old, she took after our mother in skin tone and beauty. My mother was fair and pretty. She was tall like an average woman should be and three of my sisters took after her but princess was the carbon copy. I was the eldest and only male child of my father. While my sisters took after mother, i resembled my father. He was tall and dark in complexion with an athletic build. That description matched me although i was on my way to being taller than him. We were four children in my family. I and three of my sisters. Chinaza, Chidera and Princess. Cute girls that turned heads everywhere they went. Chinaza and chidera were equally fair like our mother and it was hard to say who was the hottest or most beautiful. They had this very set of eyes that gave them away as siblings. I was in my ss3 class and 17 years old, Chinaza was in her ss2 class and was 16, Chidera was in js3 and was 12. My father worked as Engineer in one of the oil firms and his works were mostly offshore which took him far away from the house most of the times leaving me to play man of the house most of the time. We were rich and we had anything we needed to an extent.
I believed i'm cute because girls tripped over me everywhere and i did enjoy the attention. Most of my flings had been with my sister's friends whom often visited me in the guise of coming to see my sister Chinaza. Chinaza was beautiful like an angel but she wasn't one, she knew why her friends visited and had often covered for me many a times. My family was a happy one.
