ime conscious. I had my breakfast with my cousins after serving chief and his son. I and my cousins did not eat together with Chief except my aunt was around because she would dish and serve everyone at once provided were at home.
I laid lazily on my bed after having a bathe , I kept staring at one of my teddy bear which was just beside me. I had good memories of each and every one of my teddybears.
I first got "Baby bear" from my father. It was black and white in colour and had a brown bow tied round it's neck. It really looked like a bear but was not as soft as one could expect. The next I got was " Momma's pet". It was a gift from my mother during one of my birthday. It was a purple bear with dark eyes. It had a piece Of writing sticked to it's both hands. Baby bear was still preferring because Momma's pet was not as big as Baby bear.
"Ashlyn Baby" was the next bear I got. It wasn't given to me as a gift. It was owned by my little baby sister whom died three months after my mother gave birth to her. I named it after her name. I was still very little back then when I lost her. I gradually began to understand what it means to lost a kid sister and her absence was hurtful but didn't hurt me deeply like that of my father and my mother. I got alot of teddybears in several occasions. My parent later made it a tradition to get atleast one for me each time they embarked on a very long journey. I got a pink teddy from Joan , my best friend. She gave it to me on my sixteenth birthday. She really surprised me with a lot of gifts. I didn't just get a teddy bear from her but I got a set of gold jewellers , handbag , a dressing sandals , and a big beautiful red hat surrounded with gold roses. I named the teddy bear which she gave to me "Bestie" because it was coming from a best friend. I got "Mr.Barrister" from Jasper on the day of my matriculation. He was the son of my father's childhood friend. Both my father and his friend grew up to become what they dreamed and intended to become with a lovely family. Mr.Barrister had a black and white dress with a gold wig on it head and a glasses which was sticked on it's face. It was looking so funny when I first saw it and I felt ashamed bringing it out not until my friends in school began to drag it with me. The next I got was "Heartbeat". It was the first teddy bear I got after the death of my mother. My father presented it to me on my twentieth birthday. He told me that my mother bought it and hid it in one of her box with the intention of giving it to me on my next birthday. It was so unfortunate that she didn't live to see that day , that was the reason my father celebrated my twentieth birthday in memory of her. I nicknamed it after the name she was fond of calling me. Heartbeat had been one of my favourite. It was yellow colour and had red heart shape sticked to it's hands. It was so soft and larger than any of the teddy bear I got then. And I never joked with it. I usually lock it in my wardrobe and let it out whenever I missed my mother.
"Jewel" was one of the presents I got from Barry on one of the Valentine day. Barry was my first love but i could not have anything doing with him or keep him because he got engaged before we met and later got married to his fiancèe. Such feelings hurt so much but I had no other options than letting go of him. I did that because I didn't want to destroy what was caged by two lovers that intended and wished to spend the rest of their life together. The teddy bear really looked beautiful and amazing. It had a white and red colour and a rose flower in it hands.
I named it after the pet name he gave to me.
My father later bought me "Dazzling Angel and "Poppa's favourite" before he died. Both teddybears were the last I got from him before he died. They were very big and beautiful. They were my dream teddy bears. My father got them on my twenty-fourth birthday. That was the last birthday he celebrated before he died . He celebrated the birthday in a large and unique way. He made me feel like a queen that day and bought me alot of gifts. My late father was really grateful because that year I was graduating from the university. Death made it so unfortunate for me that I wasn't celebrated anymore by those who had loved and cherished me. I had loved and treasured my parents so dearly but death didn't allow me enjoy their unconditional love and care or allow them eat the fruit of their labour. My father gave me pet names like Teddy and Baby T when he realized that I was really inlove with Teddy bears. I had many of them , they littered my room especially when it was bed time. I usually throw some down to the floor when I struggled to find space to sleep at night. My father bought me a lovely red box to put some of them when it came to he's notice. My box of teddybears had been my companion where ever I go that I didn't mind leaving my panties for it.
"A'Isha ". Matilda called as she tapped my ankle. I yawned shortly and opened my eyes. I struggled to seat erect as my eyes fell weakly on her. She was dressed on a pair of Jean trouser with a sleeveless top. I cleared my throat to break the silent as she stood aside gazing at me. She took her eyes off me when she noticed I was alright.
"Are you expecting anyone?". She asked.I yawned longer again shaking my head and tightening my eyes. I felt relieved after a moment , I moved slugishly to where my fridge was kept in the room.
"Someone like who?". I asked in a cracked voice. She moved to where I was as I removed a bottled water from the fridge. I hurriedly opened the bottle and gulped down the water till it finishes. I dumped the bottle and sat back on my bed. I stared at her for sometimes waiting for her response but she didn't say anything.
"Matilda , please get me my cellphone from the table". She looked closely at the table until she was able to spot my phone. She picked it up without saying a word and handed it over to me immediately. I stared at my world clock shortly and hissed.
"So why do you have to wake me up from my sleep?". I asked when I was able to regain full consciousness.
"Sorry about that. You have a guess waiting for you in the sitting room. She said her name is Joan". She said to me politely. I was baffled when I heard my best friend's name.
'Joan?'. I asked again to confirm that I heard the right name. Matilda nodded her head smiling . She left me in the room as I hurriedly changed whatever I was wearing to a pencil , short , sleeveness gown. It had different colours of flowers round it and had white as a background colour. I untied my hair and let the braids fall down to my back and around my shoulder. I applied a little white powder on my face and a gloss on my lips. I was so excited that finally Joan came in search of me. It had really been a long while we met. Seeing her again was something very amazing one could ever imagine.
