CHAPTER 18 (Back In Time)

    Chilled and embraced morning, the sun stirs from its slumber, casting gentle rays that dance upon the tranquil milieu. The earth, nestled beneath its cozy duvet of clouds, awaits the tender kiss of warmth, as nature awakens to a new day's embrace.
The tree outside bath by letting go of dead leaves, the morning flowers were giving the house the best colors.
In Toes' mansion, people were bustling about, gathering specks of dirt and arranging the compound.
 Inside the house, a lady in white goes about cleaning the room, assisted by another person wielding a mop to cleanse the floor.
The flowers in the vase were watered, and the dining table was arranged by different people.
The house!! You might be confused just like i do, was it not this same house that Sherry was attacked by Masbel, Yella, Sera, and her crazy parrot, let it not be that we were all dreaming. Sure we must be dreaming.
The house was decorated with balloons and other decorative materials. On the walls pictures of sherry were pasted, it was well painted by the artist.
A big drawing of a digital clock was pasted on the wall with "l I'm 22" written inside it. Maybe the designer was just making a replica of what we saw earlier.
 On another wall was the image of Doris with a baby and a word under 'My Best Day.'
On the dining table was 'Happy Birthday to Sherry.'
But let's consider this a question. Is Sherry still in this House? If the answer is yes, then we were both dreaming the entire episode.
"My love, today is Sherry's special day; she deserves nothing but the finest treatment," he said as he strode down the stairs with his briefcase, adjusting his suit as he walked.
"I trust all the invitations were successfully delivered." He asked one of the maids while having a seat on the dining table.
"Yes, sir, we have extended invitations to all. Rest assured, her coursemates have been included as well." She smiled, cause the night wouldn't fail to be history in Toe's family.
As Doris descended the staircase, she exuded a newfound radiance, surpassing even the beauty we had admired earlier in the night.
"Good morning, Toes." She greeted him as she sighted him.
"Smile, sweet Doris, my darling. How is the birthday girl feeling?"He added waiting for her to have a seat 
"Sherry! Sherry! Food is ready.' She hollered having a sit close to Toes. These two are more than a perfect match, their bond is stronger than anything one can ever imagine.
"She will be down in a few minutes if she's awake." She pecked him on the cheek
Three elegant ladies, dressed in pristine white attire, gracefully emerged in the procession, each carrying a tray adorned with an array of delectable dishes, delicately placing them upon the awaiting table.
Shortly after the table was impeccably arranged, the remaining members of the household gathered around it, drawn by the allure of both the exquisite spread and the company of loved ones. But guess who was not there?
"Why hasn't Sherry made her grand entrance yet?" Her aunt asked. "It's quite concerning; it's already 7:30, and she's still in bed."
"Mommy! Mommy! Maybe she's just busy with her phone. Can we eat now, please?" Chike said holding his tummy.
"Sherry," her cousin screamed as she walked down the stairs.
Wait a minute. I thought Sherry left with Sera, Masbel, and Yella, then who's this one coming down the stairs? Then we were truly dreaming the entire episode.
She was very beautiful, her skin was clean no bruises or any sign of injury. She was a complete replica of Doris. She's 22 but looks like 16 every guy's dream lover, She's the ambassador of the "Forever Young" brand.
"Good morning Dad, good morning Mom." she hugged them and seat. Her hug was more than a treasure for them. They can't wait to celebrate her birthday 
"Happy birthday pretty." Her parents chorused in excitement.
"Good morning Aunt. love you, Flora and Kelly." She greeted playing with the children. She loves them and they love her too
"Happy birthday Sherry hope you have a nice sleep." She smiles at her.
"Happy birthday Aunty Doris."
 "Ugly," she said laughing at her brother, Chike. These two are very good at fighting each other like a baby 
"Happy Birthday, old girl." He said laughing at her. And Chike been her adopted brother just acted exactly like her biological brother.
"At least I'm prettier than your girlfriend." She claps back. They love making fun of each other and this made their bond grow stronger.
"Stop the fight you two let pray and eat." Mr. Toe, interrupts.
Everyone bowed their head as the prayer was going on.
"Amen." They all answered and opened their eyes and ate their food.
