Chapter 77: Mother Drama

"Hey! I'm driving, what's up?" Ella asked the moment she received Pete's call. 

"Is that the way mummy taught you to greet your elders? My friend show your respect!" Pete said with disapproval.

"See who is talking, how many have you taught Amanda. Good evening anyway. So why are you calling me during work hours? Are you done with work for the day?" Ella asked as maneuvered the car through the evening traffic.

"Do I blame you? If not for dad that..."

"This is what I hate most about Lagos, the traffic is just something else. Why Ngozika chose to relocate to Lagos of all places is beyond me." Kathleen's mom hissed irritably as she waved over a boy selling gala.

"You can just eat the food we bought if you're hungry." Ella suggested ignoring Pete who was still speaking on the phone.
