MORNING

Blessing was the first to wake up in the house and he went straight into his grandparents' room. Blessing woke his grandparents up and told them that he had changed his mind about them adopting Victoria because all she had done the first day she arrived in the house was to frustrate him and disturb him, and she wouldn't even sleep in the room given to her except his so they need to get her out of the house.

Blessing's grandparents said to Blessing that they had no say in that since Blessing was the one who brought her home so he should deal with whatever she did to him or he should get her out of the house himself because they have no issue with Victoria and she is a nice and good girl to them.

Blessing was shocked to hear his grandparents' response to him concerning the girl making him wonder what was going on. Blessing knows his grandparents' responsibility and priority is to always make him happy and do things that bring him happiness but now that he told them he was being uncomfortable and inconvenient because of Victoria's presence in the house they are saying he should deal with it when they are supposed to.

Blessing asks his grandparents if they don't want his happiness again is the reason why they can't get Victoria out of the house. Blessing's grandparents said to Blessing that he should not use his happiness to try to make them do what they won't do since he always does whatever he wants to do which is why he brought Victoria to them so they can adopt her and they only accept Victoria because that want to make him happy. They also told Blessing that Victoria is his responsibility so he should take care of her and do whatever he likes with her because they won't be interfering in the matter that has to do with him and Victoria.

Blessing looked at his grandparents in disbelief at what they had just said and wondered if he was talking to his real grandparents. Blessing realizes this is the first time in his life that his grandparents are refusing to do what he told them to do leaving him to deal with it. Blessing even wondered if his grandparents had been bewitched by Victoria and left their room in anger.

Blessing's grandparents smiled happily after Blessing left their room because to them, at last, they had finally had someone Blessing fears, can't stay away from, or pushes away from himself, always troubles him, and would later become friends with within the house and now he wants them her out why would they. Blessing's grandparents also see Victoria as someone who has a purpose in Blessing's life so they decided to keep her close to Blessing no matter what and were glad that God sent her to Blessing.

Ever since Victoria began living in Blessing's house, Blessing has been living in hell because of Victoria and she refused to stay away from him. Victoria troubled and tormented Blessing until he stopped coming home late in the night and came home straight away after closing at school. Blessing also could no longer be alone anywhere in the house anymore because Victoria is always there close to him telling him he is forever stuck with her. Blessing had tried many times to make sure Victoria always stopped coming into his room to sleep next to him but none of it worked. Even if Blessing closes his door room from the inside he has no idea how Victoria always opens it. Blessing has told his grandparents to change his lock because of Victoria but they didn't insisting nothing is wrong with it.

Since Blessing can't sleep alone in his room without Victoria being in it, Blessing tries as much as possible to distance himself from Victoria but it doesn't work cause Victoria always sticks to him like gum. If Blessing saw Victoria wanted to sleep in his bed, he would go down to sleep on the floor but Victoria would still come join him on the floor. Sometimes, Victoria would even go wait for Blessing outside the school at exactly the closing school hour so she and him could go home together.

Being too close to Blessing every time and Blessing not being able to do anything without Victoria, was hell to Blessing because he find it inconvenient, harsh, and torment since he always lives his life like an introvert. Blessing had complained several times to his grandparents about the things Victoria always did which inconvenient him and told them to do something about it but his grandparents did nothing saying they saw no big deal in what Victoria always did, and that made Blessing think his grandparents had turned against him.

Victoria being in Blessing's life has made Blessing significant to some people because he could now be noticed. Victoria was someone fun and lively to be with so making friends was easy for her. So she tried to make Blessing make friends too but Blessing's reaction toward those people always sent them away and Victoria could do nothing knowing that is what he always does.

Blessing was getting ready for his first class in the morning after the assembly when the school headmistress walked into his class with Victoria and introduced her as their new class/schoolmate. Blessing was shocked to see Victoria with the headmistress and became anxious upon hearing Victoria is their new class/schoolmate knowing school which was the only way he was able to get away from Victoria's disturbances and have peace of mind would be hell for him now that Victoria is there.

Blessing knew Victoria being enrolled in the same school as he was the work of his grandparents since they did nothing to change his current situation, always supported everything Victoria did, and no longer listened to him or supported him anymore. It was now like Victoria was their grandchild not him anymore.

As expected, Blessing's day in school that day was hell. Victoria started by introducing herself to everyone in school that she was Blessing's twin sister which got Blessing shocked and wondered why she did that. Blessing also could not be alone in the school as always because Victoria made him show her the whole school environment.

Blessing got home that day and went straight to meet his grandparents and asked them why they enrolled Victoria in his school knowing how she always be next to him. Blessing's grandparents responded that Blessing was the one who told them to take care of Victoria and now that they are doing so, so why is he now complaining?

Blessing said to his grandparents that he did say that but why does it have to be his school that she is enrolled in not another school? Blessing's grandparents responded that Victoria insisted on being enrolled in his school and they had to do what would make her happy.

Blessing couldn't believe all that he had been hearing from his grandparents ever since Victoria started living in their home and wondered why his grandparents had changed toward him. Blessing left in anger knowing there was nothing he could do.

Ever since Victoria had started attending Blessing's school, Blessing found it hard to be alone and do his daily routine at school. Victoria would always be involved in whatever Blessing did and Blessing found it uncomfortable telling her to stay away from him but she refused to. Victoria has friends in school so she tries to make Blessing make friends with some of their class/schoolmates but Blessing disagrees. Victoria tries to find out why Blessing wouldn't make friends in school and finds out that no one wants to be friends with Blessing because of his mask and that made Victoria insult them for not wanting to be friends with Blessing. Blessing and Victoria always go to school together and come back home together since Blessing is stuck with Victoria and Blessing doesn't know of a way to discard her.

Blessing begins to regret ever knowing Victoria and bringing her home and the stupid feeling that always draws him to her which he has no idea about. Blessing had threatened and did everything he could to make Victoria stay away from her and even cause her pain but she refused to. Blessing comes to realize he is truly stuck with Victoria and does not have anything she can use against Victoria because Victoria doesn't care and does whatever she likes but Blessing promises himself not to let Victoria win by changing him.

Victoria's mission was to change Blessing so to change him she had to know everything about him. Victoria made Blessing take her to places Blessing always visited before coming home and places he always loved to be alone but Blessing never got to be alone anymore because of her. Victoria also finds out that Blessing loves silence, loves to sketch, loves to be alone, and loves music which are what complete Blessing's small world.

Blessing never had a moment alone since Victoria decided to be part of his world. They sleep next to each other inside Blessing's bedroom, go to school together, visit places together, and do things together because Victoria never let Blessing out of her sight.

Even though Blessing was coping with Victoria who always is by his side, Blessing still wasn't comfortable with her so Blessing decided to join a gang of people of his age outside school so Victoria could stay away from him.
