So lately last year, Grandma told us that everybody in the family must start preparing for the get-together that happened at the beginning of this year.
So at the beginning of this year, everyone started preparing for the get-together party, for me I wanted to sew a new dress, and for my junior sister, she wanted to buy new shoes so she could wear them that day.
My mom and dad told us that we should not overspend for the party, seeing that things are always tough at the beginning of the year.
"Mom I know but I want to look stunning " Everyone laughed as I replied to my mom.
"Daddy I want you to know that I love you, so I will buy you a new shoe," I told my dad.
With a budgie eye, my mom said
"So you do not love me"
Everyone laughed again.
When the party day came, we all prepared to travel to my home town, we took some foodstuffs, and some clothes so that we would change.
We arrived there, and we were all happy because we would see our cousins, and some of our friends too.
The next day was the party, my grandma had invited so many people to the party this time.
"Grandma did you invite so many people this time, " I asked curiously
My grandma told me that I should keep calm, that she wanted to reveal something important to us "Okay," I said, but in my mind, I was thinking if she wanted to tell us that was the last party with her.
I thought and thought, till I became moody.
After all the cooking and other preparation, everyone sat at the table, and we were all eating.
When we all finish eating, Grandma said " I have something to tell everyone"
Everyone stared at her to hear what she had for us.
"the man in the black shirt is one of us"
Everyone was confused, and we started murmuring.
Then grandma started saying that the man in the black shirt was her last son, that she got pregnant for a man, in the nearby village when my grandfather died.
She said that she was lonely so she was looking for comfort so she needed to go there to stay with the man, and one night, they met, and unknowingly for them, she got pregnant.
Everyone was so pissed with her, for not letting us know all of this. My mom said that, there was no need for her to keep the secret and that it would be very difficult for us to accept the man.
The man stood up and started making trouble, saying that he would forcefully become part of the family.
As we talked to him, he brought out a gun, and threaten to shoot everyone.
My grandmother was so surprised at what she saw, she went close to stop him, but she could not.
We all needed to accept him because he forced us.
Thank God no one was hurt, we accepted him, and we forgave our grandma.
