THE PRESIDENT’S DAUGHTER SEASON 2
EPISODE 5
After dinner, its our home tradition to remain in the sitting room till 9:00pm before anyone can go to his/her room.
There was total silence during and after dinner. Nancy sat on one corner chatting and waiting patiently for 9:00. Mirabel and I sat on one side while momma sat on the sofa, looking at us from time to time.
The clock finally ticks for bed time, Nancy took herself from her seat headed to her room, not to sleep though but to chat and make phone calls comfortably.
Nancy: Goodnite mum, nite bro, let’s go inside Mirabel
***Mirabel was about to stand up before momma speak up.***
Mum: She will join u later Nancy, I need to talk to her
Nancy: Okay mum **walks out**
Mum then turn down the volume of the plasma tv. I became nervous because she only does that when she has something very important to say or to do. My eyes and Mirabel’s jammed, she seems to be relaxed.
Mum: I want to talk to the two of you. Firstly with some questions and i require sincere answers from both of u. You know, relationships is now something very common with our youths of today and there’s nothing we parents can do to stop our children especially when they claim to be in love, except for our honest advice. I wasn’t there when both of you started your dating or relationship or whatever it might be, and i know deep down my heart that i can’t stop your relationship, i might just turn out to be a wicked person and a bad mother. Are you both listening to what i’m saying?
Me/Mirabel: Yes ma
Mum: Good, so why are you both dating each other? Victor??
Me: Because,,,, we love and care for each other, we understand and trust each other, and we uhmm… we want to be with each other.
Mum: That’s why you’re dating?
Me: Y-e-s-s…
Mum: Okay, Mirabel?
Mirabel: We’re dating each other because,,,, what we feel for each other is true, we’re good friends that understands and help each other out, no one is influencing the other to do something bad so i think we’re compatible together. Our relationship is that of friendship hoping to make it to the future together.
Mum: I like that reply. That’s something i want to hear.
***Chai! I dunno why ladies like being with a guy hoping to end up together. Their mindset is far different from the guys oh… they would want to tie us down to be their husband,,,,, see how my momma likes her response***
Mum: Do you agree with both your replies?
Mirabel: Yes ma
Me: Yes ma
Mum: Good, have the two of you thought of being with each other in the future? As in, do you have future plans with each other?
Mirabel: Ma…
Mum: Victor
Mirabel: Okay
Me: Uhmmm… yea, yeeaah i do think about having a future with Mirabel, I love her. (Not certain)
Mum: Mirabel…
Mirabel: If a prophet tells me that i’d end up with Victor, I’d be extremely happy. He is the kind of man i’d want to spend my life with.
Mum: I guess that answers my question
***U can imagine how my heart was beating***
Mum: Now tell me what can make you break up with each other?
Me: I haven’t thought about that, maybe not yet
Mum: Miracle, sorry Mirabel *smiles*
Mirabel: For me, I can’t be with someone that will give me a reason for not trusting him. So, infidelity will end what i have for him.
Mum: Hhmmm…. okay, I’ve heard you both and I approve of your relationship **satisfactory smile**
Me: Thanks mum
Mirabel: Thanks ma, we won’t disappoint you or i won’t disappoint you rather
Mum: For my advice, first, both of you should abstain from s£x, God doesn’t approve of it neither would I approve it. Its not good for the unmarried. I’m not going to ask if you both have been having s£x before but if you have been doing it, stop it, it’s unacceptable,,,, do u understand what i’m saying?
Mirabel: Yes ma
***Nawa o,,, e don red o,,, am i going back to my root of not having s£x anymore? Nawa o…***
Mum: Do you both understand that? **her eyes on me**
Mirabel/Me: Yes ma
Mum: Good. Mirabel i like what you said about your relationship being that of friendship’ I will like you both to be friends. You know what friends does right? Sharing and communicating with each other your problems, happiness, ideas and of all that. Also trusting and understanding each other and be there for each other. Relationships doesn’t work out well if there’s no friendship, so be friends ok?
Mirabel/Me: Yes ma
***Mehn,,,, i feel like i’m getting get married already, like i’m on marriage counseling***
Mum: That’d be all for now, its late already so u two need to have your sleep.
Me: Ok ma
Mirabel: Thank you ma
Mum: Lemme take you to Nancy’s room Mirabel, where u’d spend the night **switching off everything**
Mirabel: Ok ma
Mum: Ok let’s go
Mirabel: Good night Victor
Me: Good night, Good night mummy
Mum: Good night, make sure you pray before sleeping
Me: Yes ma
I departed to my room screaming ‘Nawa o’ inner my mind.
I took my phone and on the data sharparly. Many messages from many different chats showed up but i ignored them ‘coz i wasn’t in the mood for chatting. I saw a message from Nancy, i opened it and we chatted a little …
Nancy: So wat do i get 4 helpin u?

I logged out,,, I sat restless on my bed trying to sleep buh sleep avoided me. I thought about something and got back online again. Good thing she was online, so i initiated chat with her….
Me: Hey babe *love eyes*
Mirabel: Hi love
Me: I can’t sleep, just thinking about u, love of my life, the one and only tenant in my heart, my dearest, my most beautiful, you’re just too much babe
Mirabel: Thanks love, u’re dah best *blushing*

Mirabel: Last seen 10:53
D–n it! She has really left.
I wasn’t happy that night, But Nancy will surely be very happy. I know she’ll bombard Mirabel with lots of questions and other things she would like to know out of her curiosity. She won’t let Mirabel rest because she’ll want to know a lot from the little opportunity she got to sleep on the same bed in the same room with the President’s Daughter which happens to be her brother’s girlfriend *Winks*
☆☆☆★☆☆☆★
Around 5:21am I heard a loud knock on my door and heard momma’s voice calling my name, it was time for our morning devotion which was Nancy’s turn to lead.
I joined them in the sitting room singing praises to God. We heard the word, we prayed, did some chores, bath, then ate bread and tea for breakfast.
I didn’t know if i should be angry with Mirabel or not. I hate being disappointed. Did she really disappointed me? She made her point sha buh i still didn’t like the fact that she turned me down.
Mum got prepared to go to the shop with Nancy. Mirabel asks if she could join them. Mum agreed while Nancy was glad. Mum asked me if i’d join them, but i declined.
Mirabel took me to a corner and gave me a quick kiss,,, just a kiss before she left with them. I was left at home,,, alone.
What did i do?
I dashed to the kitchen immediately, took a big cup, put a lots of my momma’s powdered milk with chocolates, then used cold water to drink it.
I went to the sitting room to watch movies,,, many channels were showing interesting movies, series, and music but they bore me. I got out of the house to the game house. I related with my hommies and they showed me love. We played, gists, we had fun till i left there later in the afternoon when i got hungry. Mum called me to inquire if i would go to the shop for lunch, or prepare something to eat at home, or buy something to eat. And of course i chose to buy something. I don’t really enjoy suya in the day time so i bought meat pies and hollandia yogurts. I got bored at home again, i decided to watch the television and NEPA seized the power. I don’t chat when i’m bored so i just slept.
I don’t know how long i slept but i know i didn’t wake up intentionally. My rap ringtone actually woke me up and the tone appeared in my dream.
**Picks up**
Me: Hello *horror voice*
Promise: Hi,,, why weren’t u picking up? Have u been sleeping?
Me: Yeah
Promise: Yeah,,, seems so sounding from your voice. So how u doing?
Me: Fine i guess
Promise: Mirabel told me she’s been at your place since yesterday and that you weren’t feeling too well, so how u feeling now?
Me: Better,,, i’m ok now
Promise: Of course, why won’t u be ok now when she’s with u
Me: Yea,,, how u doing?
Promise: I’m ok, rocking my iPhone
Me: I see… that’s good
Promise: Yea, the camera is wow!
Me: Yea it is
Promise: U sound boring, what’s up with u?
Me: I just woke me up from my siester
Promise: Even at that, its not like u
Me: Promise I’m fine
Promise: Sure?
Me: Yea sure
Promise: Ok, we’d talk some other time when you’re more ‘lively’
Me: Yea, bye
Promise: Byee…
**Hangs up**
I saw 2 missed calls, it was from Promise.
The power got restored back but i still wanted to sleep. I was enjoying my dream before Promise cut it short.
It was even her call that made my dream sweeter. Because i was hearing my rap ringtone in my dream.
The dream was….
I was the class and the Lecturer was lecturing. Then suddenly, the Lecturer start rapping my ringtone in the class which was 2Pac Shakur’s. I joined him in the rap ‘coz i know the rap and i love it.
That’s how my Lecturer and i was rapping in the class before i woke up and discovered that it’s my phone that has been ringing.
Later in the evening, Mirabel and Nancy came back from the shop to start preparing dinner. I really missed her,,,, i mean Mirabel.
We exchanged pleasantries and i got just a peck from her.
Me: How did it go?
Mirabel: Very fine, the sales was good
Me: Oh i see… i know Nancy disturbed u
Mirabel: Not at all, she’s fun and good to be with
Me: Really? Even with her talking problem ?
Mirabel: Its not a problem Victor, its her Natural gift and its cool
Me: Hhmmmm (speechless)
Mirabel: Talk to u later, lemme freshen up (Walks away).
After they did a little freshen up, Nancy went to the kitchen while Mirabel came back to me.
Mirabel: I will be leaving tomorrow Victor
Me: I thought u would spend the week here?
Mirabel: I never planned on doing that, besides your Dad called to inform your Mom that he’d be coming back tomorrow
Me: So, U will leave me like this?
Mirabel: Like what?
Me: We could spend quality time together tonight
Mirabel: Not gonna happen
Me: Come on,,, not even a kiss? Or kisses rather
Mirabel: **smiles** (she walked closer to me and whispered) Mum instructed us to prepare fried rice and chicken for dinner, and she’d bring some yogurts. So hold that thought for later (She gave me a simple kiss on the lips then walked away smiling) I was like ‘Hhmmmm’
About 45 minutes later, I started perceiving a delicious aroma from the kitchen. I couldn’t bear the suspense of the aroma any longer so i left the house to the game house to pass time, I hate suspense.
There was a kind of party at the game house. I was told earlier but i forgot. On reaching there, they start hailing my name. I felt like a local celebrity. They dragged me to a seat claiming its mine and brought in drinks for me. I don’t drink alcohol anymore but i couldn’t refuse it because of how they were hailing me. They showed me love. And the hailing also made some girls come around to me. I was hesitating to drink but my guys were pushing me to drink before displaying on the dancefloor. I finished one bottle, they opened another one for me. I was about to empty the bottle, before two of my guys dragged me to the dancefloor. The people that knows me started screaming. My head grew bigger, the DJ changed the music to one of my favourite song for dancing which was ‘Alingo’ by P’Square. The song burst my head that i didn’t know when i started dancing. Its been long since i last danced but i still didn’t missed my moves. Before i knew it, girls started bringing their waist closer to me. One even came and put my hands around her waist then she started twisting it for me. The party ‘entertainers’ came to me from behind and offered me a cup of dry gin and two piece of condom (That was how we party) It was the gin that got me high.
