THE PRESIDENT’S DAUGHTER
EPISODE 13
All my life that I’ve lived so far, I’ve never been in this kind of situation, I’ve never been this emotional. Now, I don’t need a psychic or a fetish to tell me that ‘I’m in love’…
Me: U see… Mirabel, I dunno if I acted blind or I was so naive to realize how much U care for me but to tell U the truth… I really appreciate everything U did for me, the love, the care, the kindness and the extra love that you’ve shown me, I Love U Mirabel…
I looked at her, I saw tears dripping down from her eyes yet she was some how smiling…
Mirabel: (Straight-face) U know what Victor, I’ve stopped liking U a long time ago
Me: (Shocked) What?
Mirabel: Yes!
Me: Mirabel please no don’t do that,,, I beg U, baby I love U. Please forgive my naivety and all the sadness I cost U… I can see clearly now, I’m very sure of myself that I’m in love for the first time of my life… please baby don’t do this to me not now not ever I beg U…
Mirabel: U don’t get it do U?
Me: Mirabel please, I’m so crazy about U now, I might go mad in fact my brain is shattering already. I’m going crazy Mirabel!!
Mirabel: Victor, I don’t like U anymore… U didn’t even asked me why
Me: Why? Please why??
Mirabel: (Laffs) Because I love U so much…
Me: Really?
Mirabel: Yea! I can’t believe you’re this sweet
Me: Well, U made me go crazy
Mirabel: Thats what U get for being so naive
Me: (calmed) I love U Mirabel
Mirabel: I love U more
We hugged each other for almost a minute or so before we slowly adjusted to kissing position. We shared our first kiss which lasted for 4secs, she turn down her eyes in a shy way while smiling. I smiled to myself as well, I used my hands to raise her head up, pulled her closer then we lip-locked for about 8 minutes before….
Lola: Yes! I catch una. Cynthia show!
We adjusted on hearing her voice but with smile on our faces…
(Cynthia walked in)
Cynthia: Whats up here?
Lola: Cynthia, U won’t believe it
Cynthia: What?
Lola: I caught them kissing
Cynthia: Really? Wow! This calls for celebration. I’m so happy for U guys (ran in side)
Lola: At last…
Mirabel: Lola!
Lola: C’mon girl! I caught U red-handed, this is happening girl… I know it will work he’s a nice guy but hey, obviously not for my liking but good for U
I was just there smiling feeling much comfortable like we’ve been together for the longest time. Cynthia came back with a champagne bottle and 4 glasses.
She poured some champagne in the glasses then everyone took theirs…
Lola: Lets toast for the new lovers
Cynthia: Cheers!
We hit up our glasses doing ‘cheers’ as we see in the movie ‘coz I’ve never done it before.
Mirabel: Thanks girls for been there for me, I really appreciate U guys and I love U both
Lola/Cynthia: We love U too
**Laughs**
Lola: Hey mister, U’ve been silent all this while aint U goin’ to say something?
Me: Oh yes uhmm… I really dunno how to express my gratitude, I dunno how to thank U guys for a job well done.
Lola: Just try, U’re doing it already
Me: **smiles** Thank U guys for everything, your help, courage, advice, mind activation, motivation, stimulation, the actualization…
Lola: Its Ok and you are so welcome
Cynthia: You’re welcome Victor, and thank U too…. now our friend is back to herself again, even better.
Lola went to a corner and brought something out. A video camera!
Lola: Well well well… lemme see how it all began
Cynthia: What’s that?
Lola: A camera
Mirabel: U set a camera for us?
Lola: I just want to know everything that happened here, U know I’m not good in listening to stories like this, and besides, U won’t even tell us.
Mirabel: Could have be more if U hadn’t interrupted
Lola: I don’t mind, this will do
Mirabel: So pathetic… (jokingly)
As for me, I dunno what to say or what to feel. Is it right or wrong? I dunno jare.
Me: U are really funny Lola
Lola: **Smiles**
I turned to Mirabel, held hands, then took her outside to the garden. Now, I want to like… be in charge.
We walked slowly in the garden in silence. Then I stopped, used both my hands to hold both hers too while facing each other
This day is a day to remember, a day I’ll never forget as its my first time of telling a girl ‘I Love U’ and as well the first time of asking a girl out in the proper way. Because back then, all what I do is to tell her that I like her and ask if she’d be my girlfriend. I guess I’m already becoming who I wanted to be or needed to be, whatever…
Me: Mirabel,,,, U are a new experience in my life, U are another chapter of my life, U are another person worth thinking about in my life, U are another moment that is worth remembering in life, U are my new found joy, source of happiness and U are my first love,,,, I love U Mirabel… Will U be my lover?
Mirabel: Yes Victor! Yes!! I so love U
Me: I love U too Mirabel…. even more
She jumped into my arms while I grabbed her butt as we kissed like real lovers. We kept kissing, she didn’t pull out neither did I stopped. One thing is that I love kissing, and her kisses was wow! She’s a great kisser and I love the taste of her kisses. She finally pulled out after the long kiss.
Mirabel: Victor…?
Me: Yes dear
Mirabel: Thank U
Me: Thank U too,,, buh what are U thanking me for?
Mirabel: For asking me Out,,, and what did U thank me for?
Me: Well uhmmm… for accepting to be my lover
We kissed, kissed, kissed and kissed
She starts buttoning and removing my shirt button slowly,,, she will button it, remove it, button it again continuously…
Mirabel: Baby….
Me: Yes babe?
I really don’t like being called baby by a girl at all… I’d let her know if she calls me that again.
Mirabel: Hhmmmm….
Me: What is it dear?
Mirabel: Will U spend the night here with me? I really want to be under your arms, its kinda boring for me here
Me: I don’t think I can dear
Mirabel: But why? Please stay with me,,, I’m not testing U again I promise. I trust U with everything Victor, I want to be all yours… just stay with me love…
Me: Well,,, truth be told, I really fear that U might test me again. And another thing is that, I don’t sleep out from where I live
Mirabel: But this is different, I’m your girlfriend now, we can sleep over at each others place,,, there is nothing wrong with that.
Me: Yea that’s true, you’re right but the thing is that, I didn’t plan on sleeping over today. Maybe some other time…
Mirabel: Hhmmm…. woah… you’re a man of principles already. Mummy and Daddy did a great job in raising a husband material
Me: They did well truely (Its true o)
Mirabel: How about U by-pass this one for my sake
Me: Mirabel….
Mirabel: (seductively) I will prepare U fried rice and lots of chicken and as well yoghurts… I noticed U love yoghurts
Me: Really??
Mirabel: Yep
Me: Well, on a second thought… I will stay for your sake
Mirabel: (Teasingly) And for the sake of the proposed food and yoghurt?
Me: They’re just additional dear
Mirabel: I hear U…. lets go in
Me: Alright
Mirabel: (paused) or would U like to swim?
Me: I would love to buh its getting late already, and I think U should start the cooking already
Mirabel: Hhmmm… the food-lover
Me: U know its normal to satisfy the worms in the stomach
Mirabel: Really?
Me: Yea
Mirabel: Well, how about U feed them with beans and yam?
Me: Huh? No na they don’t like such, they need fried rice and chicken with yoghurt
