Chapter 2: Rude at first meeting

Author's POV

Charlotte could be seen packing her luggages outside. 

    She glanced at her sad mom once again and sighed .

    "Com'on mom, stop being so emotional, I'll make sure to call you at least once in three days, you know I love you Mom." She said hoping her mom will cheer up.     

    "Charlotte, I know baby, I just want you to be careful, You are still very you.." her mom was still talking when she cut her off .

    "Young? I know mom . You have told me this a million times". She groaned, feeling frustrated already.

    She hugged her mom really tight and waved her goodbye for the last time and entered the car, the engine coughed to life and zoomed off.

   

    She was travelling out of the country in hopes of finding her dad and at the same time using the opportunity to go to school in America. 

    After about 30 minutes drive, they got to the airport. Finding out her flight will take off in ten minutes, she did the necessary requirements and was given her seat's number.

She got to where her seat is and saw a fat man on it.

    "Hello?" She said politely but the man Ignored her on purpose and that alone got her pissed off.

    "Hey fatty, you're sitting in my space or are you by anyway deaf?".  She asked angrily and that "deaf" word caught the man's attention.

    He looked up at her, surprised 

"well for your information this is my seat girl". He checked the paper given to him and saw he was wrong .

    He looked up at Charlotte and stood up seeing the deadly glares she was throwing his way. 

 He walked away without an apology from him. There seem to be a lot of rude people I the world,

 Charlotte thought and sat down. 

    "This is my seat". She mimicked aloud to his hearing . She has always thought about what the insides of a plane looks like in reality, and this is just Woah.

    Ten minutes later, the plane was ready to take off. They were given all necessary instructions and the flight took off .

    Charlotte brought out her phone, connected her head phone, adjusted it on her head and got comfortable on the soft leather,  An hour later, she slept off.      

    

    

(USA 8pm)

    Charlotte was woken up by their arrival announcement. For how many hours has she been sleeping?  She thought, rubbing her eyes. It was dark in America already .

  Woah, it's freezing out here, she thought as she disembarked from the plane,

She glanced around, everything in the strange country was new to her. 

'America here I come' she thought,  searching for her mum's friend. Her mom already told her she will be living with her college friend.

She just hopes she will be able to cope with them.

    Someone hugged her and when she disengaged from the hug she saw it was her mum's friend.

"Look at you, you have grown so big, you are so cute. Hardly will people know you were raised in Nigeria". The tall lady said and Charlotte  smiled.

    She helped her with her luggages to the car and she drove Charlotte home with the woman filling her in on everything she has to know about America. 

    They got home after an hour's drive. She got down from the car and her lips formed the word O,

They must be freakin' rich . She has never in her life seen such a magnificent house.     

     They entered the house together and she was wowed, before she could cover her mouth, the lady spoke.

"I hope you like the house, you can call me Courtney if you don't feel comfortable calling me mom okay?"

    "Alright court....  alright ma" she replied smiling and Courtney chuckled. Charlotte went to the sitting room and she was served drinks. 

    Some minutes later, Courtney showed  her to her room and she loved it so much. It was painted green and cream.

"If you don't like the colour, just let me know. We'll change it" Courtney said.

    "No, it's beautiful. I love it" she replied smiling. 

    "Okay dear..that's a relief". 

    "I'm back mom". A male voice said, shouting.

 So she even has a son, his voice is so cool. Charlotte thought.

    His son came inside the room and his gaze was focused on Charlotte for some seconds.

    He finally hugged his mom. 

    "Hi son, you are back. How was school?" Courtney asked her son .

    "Stressful as always". He replied, stealing gazes at Charlotte.

    "Meet Charlotte, the girl I told you about. She arrived today" Courtney said and he mouthed an "Oh".

    "Charlotte, this is Alexander, my son" she said.

    Charlotte stretched out her hand for a handshake which he took. His mum left the room for them to get to know each other.

    "I will appreciate it if you can stay away from me in this house, cause I hate Nigerians, such an ugly and corrupted Nation".  Alexander said and Charlotte flinched.

    "That was rude, plus I'm not a Nigerian, I just grew up in Nigeria".  She replied, trying to start a conversation.

    "Whatever, just stay away from me" Alexander said and left the room.

    "Wow, he thinks so highly of himself, well i ain't interested in talking to him anyways, such a dick head' Charlotte said snorted.

    "Kids, come down to eat!" Courtney shouted.

    Charlotte took a quick shower and let loose her hair. She wore blue sweat pants and a white crop top, grabbed her phone and left for downstairs.

    She sat down and started eating quietly with Alexander. Courtney had asked the maids to prepare shrimps and grilled chicken just to welcome her.

    Courtney left upstairs and came down with a wrapped box.

    "When you finish eating, you can check what's in there" she left sitting on a couch. 

    Charlotte started rushing her food curious of what could be inside. 

    "Easy girl, the gift is not disappearing" Alex said, rolling his eyes.

    "The only problem you guys have is minding your business" Charlotte retorted and Alex continued eating. 

    Charlotte checked the gift when she was done and jumped happily like a baby. "Thanks mum" she called Courtney the M  word and she smiled. 

    She put on the phone and went to the kitchen packing Courtney's dish and leaving his'.

"Come on dear, you don't have to do that you know,..."

"Don't worry Mom, I'll manage it" she smiled prettily.

    She did the dishes, and sat down in the kitchen operating her new phone.
