THE PRESIDENT’S DAUGHTER
EPISODE 2
We walked around the beach, with two not-strange people following us, a man and a lady. Hand in hand with her, we laughed, constant hugging, kisses and all. We were so happy together. We left the beach to get some ice cream from there to the movies, we watched a romantic movie while my hand was around her neck and her head on my shoulder what a romantic night for us. We started walking on the street not sure of where we were going but i noticed those two are still following us, i don’t understand why but we felt save. They were also acting romantic when they think we aren’t looking. We stopped for a moment, i held her waist while she faced me then we looked each other in the eyes her face was blurry i didn’t know why.
Me: Baby
Girl: Yes…
Me: You know i love u so much
Girl: I know dear
Me: I will never do anything to hurt u
Girl: I know
Me: And i will always stand by u no matter what
Girl: Alright Victor whats wrong? is it about my father??
Me: No dear, i just need to be sure that u trust me
Girl: I trust u and i love u
***We shared a passionate kiss***
Me: Ermm… sweetheart
Girl: Yes dear
Me: That money i asked of, when am i getting it?
Girl: I told u not to worry
She brings out her phone, did what i dunno next thing i heard was my phone alert. I opened the message what i saw shoked me….. Your account has been credited with #4,000,000…..
I was so happy i rushed her with kisses, just then i heard sirens coming to our side with about seven cars including range rover i always admire.
Some hefty men came out and beat the hell out me.
Man: How many times will i warn you to stay away from my daughter?
Girl: Dad i love him
Man: Shut up! you, take her into the car!
I looked as she was been dragged into the vehicle.
Man: I won’t be this nice next time
He said then left me there in the dark.
Then i heard a loud noise from the background… I woke up with a slight headache and discovered its my phone that’s been ringing and i’ve been dreaming all this while. 4 missed calls from my mum, i checked the time 7:48am Oopss!! Can’t call her now I’m already late for school. I did a quick bath, put on my clothes, picked up my bag equipped with the necessaries and rushed out as fast as i could. The lecturer has already shut the door when i got there, oh no! Attendance is really important for me, besides i don’t want to miss any lectures. Well, i met four students that also came late but were there before me, three guys and a girl (not attributed in any form).
Guy 1: This man go wicked o… just him first lecture na’im he dey lock door
Guy2: See how him be, carry head like fly-over
Me: Guys make we stand for window beg ‘am or mak him just see us
Girl: Abi o
We went to the window begging with gestures using our hands. He would look at us and look away instantly. We continued like that until he announced that we would enter on one condition, that each of us would answer a question before entering his class. We agreed, so he called us to the door post where we’d answer him.
He was about to ask the first question before three elegant looking people arrived. D–n! I could feel the aura of their presence, it was breathtaking. Two ladies and a gentle man actually but one of the ladies looks more younger like a teen, they must be very rich. The teen girl spoke directly to the lecturer.
Teen girl: Morning Lecturer
Lecturer: You know you’re supposed to be here earlier
Teen girl: Yea, i know. Can i go in? like now??
Lecturer: Alright, you all should come in.
***Thank you sir in chorused from we that was there before.***
Teen girl: Alright guys gat to go for class or you’d follow me in as well?
Lady/Man: No miss
Teen girl: This should be the last time you guys will ever call me that!!
Lady/Man: Yes Mirabel
The other two must be her bodyguards
(WTF! Who tha hell is she?)
In the class, the lecturer stated his principles, did the introductory part of his lecture, gave us the course outlines then concluded by saying we would start fully next week before he left. The class immediately got noisy as hell, people running from different angles to one spot, the place where that girl was seated, what? who is this girl sef?? a celebrity i don’t know???
They even tried to take photos with her but were prevented by her bodyguards. They were screaming around her before her bodyguards guarded her out of the class.
Myself went out to eat something, i was passing by when i sighted her at the most expensive eatery in the school, i guess she saw me too but i didn’t care. One thing about me is that, i don’t compare myself with rich kids because…. i believe that their fathers/mothers might even suffered more than me, so they might decide to work hard so their children won’t suffer the way they did. So, me thinking about that is a motivation for me to work hard for my own children.
I went to a eatery i could afford, ate, rest a little, then headed to class for the next lectures.
The lecturers came, did their introductions in anticipation for next week’s normal lectures.
Once the lecturers left, those bodyguards would come in to protect their princess.
I left the class for I.D card office to get my I.D, after waiting in the queue for several minutes, they told me my I.D isn’t ready yet. On leaving the place i saw two people at once, I saw Esther coming from the east and Mirabel from the west stepping down from her car, with me at the south side. I don’t want any of them to see me, unfortunately there’s nothing i could do. If i should head north, they would both see me. I immediately thought of something, i’ve always liked west-side ‘coz of 2pac Shakur, U know during the West coast and East coast beef between Notorious B.I.G and 2pac…
2pac rep West-Side. So i decided to take the west route, I walked passed her while she did the same, i didn’t say nothing while she didn’t even look my side. On looking her, i can’t tell what kind of person she was, she was kind of different. But on a normal sense, i’d say she’s arrogant.
I don’t like arrogant people who thinks highly of themselves, they irritates me especially when they feel superior over others.
The introductory week passed, i got my I.D different guys rushing to try their luck in wooing Mirabel, i dunno how it went but looking at her reaction, i guess she didn’t give them a chance. They didn’t stop though, all those swagging guyz, guyz with cars and money from different department kept trying.
★★☆★★☆
Normal lectures began, i paid attention to every single knowledge the lecturers impacted, i don’t miss any lectures, got a semi-friend Titus by name and a good female friend Promise who was the assistant class rep, intelligent but i assisted her alot. She alone knows about my intelligence as i don’t like showing myself to get attention. It was Promise that advised me to be answering questions in the class and help students that needs help. She said…
★★☆★★☆
My day wasn’t that bad but i had to rest a lot by sleeping… i sleep a lot which made mum always complain that i sleep much yet i don’t get fat, because i was a slim guy but i like my stature though.
Phone rings
Me: Hello
Uncle: Hello, how are u?
Me: Fine sir. Long time sir
Uncle: So u know that, yet u don’t call
Me: Not like that sir
Uncle: How is it?
***I don’t enjoy lieing or arguments, so i just accepted the blame.***
Me: Sorry sir
Uncle: U know things ain’t done that way, we’re family
Me: I know sir, won’t happen again
Uncle: Better not.
Me: Yes sir
Uncle: U’re in school right?
Me: Yes sir
Uncle: I just confirmed from your mum
Me: Ok sir
Uncle: I trust u that u’re studying hard right?
Me: Yes sir
Uncle: Good. Send me your account details let me see what i can do.
Me: *happy* Ok sir, thank u sir
Uncle: Thank God, i will always support u, just don’t betray us boy
Me: Sure sir
Uncle: Alright take care of yourself. Don’t forget to send me your account details. Bye.
Me: Bye sir, thank u sir.
Wow! extra money coming… i love my family jare. With that i decided to treat myself for the night. Coming to school is like a new source of income for me as i worked in a computer business centre that made me save a lot before starting school. Now more money from one relative or another, cool! Good thing i don’t womanize and i don’t drink alcohol.
I went to a nearby suya spot which later became my favourite. I bought #300 suya, went into a shop got myself hollandia yoghurt and 3 eggs. I got home, prepared indomie and enjoy myself as a student for the night. Then i thought about what Promise had told me earlier
“If Martin Luther had kept his knowledge to himself, he wouldn’t had become great“
I thought about it over and over then agreed with her after some time.
Time for everyone to know who Victor Vames is
I said to myself silently
