'I welcome you all to my granddaughter's birthday party. Thank you all for coming. Please drop your gifts under those flowers, thank you as you do so. (Clears her throat) Does anyone have a song to present, kindly raise your hand up please ', Anny said.

No one signified.

'Okay, If no one ha....', a raised hand interrupted her speech.

'Wow, we have someone finally. Come out please. Let's put our hands together for Vanzy, please ', she said, and sat down.

'Thank you Gran', Vanzy replied.

'You're welcome, my son', she replied smiling at him.

Clears his throat,

```From the first time I set my eyes on you.

I know you're one in a million.

I'm saying Happy Birthday to you,

Even though you seem faraway from me,

I need you.

You seem to be faraway from me

I need you,

You're my heart desire

Happy Birthday to you,

Continue aging with grace, my love````

He finished the song, turning to Clitche and bow. A thunderous applause followed.

'Is this a birthday song or what ' Anny murmured.

'Oh Mom! You know, there are different ways of singing birthday song. So, it's still a birthday song's, Dazzy intervene.

'Hey dude', Cory said, walking up to Vanzy.

'Hi', Vanzy replied.

'Hope you're enjoying the party? '

'Yes, I am. How can I help you? '

'I just want to warn you to take your eyes off Clitche. She's my woman. I saw you looking at her earlier. And don't let me see you near her again, dude'

'Why should I do that? Well, too bad. The last time I checked, I was told she's single and you're just a friend. So how come you're calling yourself her boyfriend now?', he replied, sipping his drink.

'I'm her man. I don't give a fuck about where you hear that from. I have every right to tell you that. I know your type, you want money right? Just name your price and your details. I will send it to you instantly '.

'I'm not like you who want to have her and go. You have no right over her dude. You're nothing but a useless friend to her. So, back off'

'I won't give you a lot of speech. Just back off to save yourself '

'(Chortled) And if I don't? '

'(moves closer to him, touching the hem of his cloth) Then prepare to face my wrath. Because I'm goin.....'

'What's going on here? ' Dazzy interrupted, coming into view.

'He's helping me to adjust the hem of my shirt', Vanzy said, adjusting.

'Well, you can't deceive me. I can see him holding your cloth earlier. What's going on? '

'I'm telling the truth, Dazzy. Trust me '

'(Turning to Cory) I know you. Always causing trouble everywhere you go. Don't try to create a scene here or else I will beg my sister to send you out. Be careful', she said, glaring at him.

'She's calling you', she added.

'Ok, thanks. Where is she? ', Cory said.

'Who? ', Dazzy questioned.

'Clitche. I thought you said she's calling me '

'Did I face you? I promise, if you create a scene here, you're out ', she said, sternly.

'(to Vanzy) Let's get going '.

'I told you to back off. I think this is enough for you ' , Vanzy chuckled and walk away.

'I will have to deal with this little devil first. I have to teach her some lessons so next time, I'm pretty sure she won't be able to raise that tiny thing she call a month at me again. I will deal with you two', Cory declared in his mind, glaring at the duo, also sipping his drink.
