Sunday morning:
As early as 5:30am I was already awake. I went to the bathroom, brushed my teeth, and quickly showered. I didn't even bother waking my siblings, their mother could do that for them today.
My phone started ringing. I looked at the screen, it was an unknown number and picked it up.
.
The first voice I heard sent a shiver down my spine.
"Hi Blessing, it's Emma."
"Hey! Hi," I stuttered, unsure which greeting would sound more pleasant, since I wasn't expecting him to call me.
"It's a choir tradition to remind all new members to be early, by 6:30am, so you can robe."
"Oh, that ... I haven't forgotten." How could I forget to be early? I smiled to myself. "I'll be early. Thank you for calling to remind me, I really appreciate" Before I could finish, the call ended.
