Xara dragged my servant back,
she prevented her from checking who was wearing the dream gold chain.
“why would you st©p her from checking? I asked.
“let’s go there ourselves” she suggested.
I scoffed and followed,we got to the p@rticular cloth sto-re no maiden was there.
“Xara she left alre-ady” shadia said.
“cool down baby” she whispered.
I just rolled my eyeball as a young girl brou-ght out new stocks from inside the sto-re.
“long life my princesses,what should I bring first” she said with respect.
“Are you the one here?” Xara asked, she nodded piously.
I cleared my throat,
then look around.
“there was a maiden here,she left not quiet long.Do you have information about where she pas-sed?” I asked.
She hit the back of her head.
“am sorry,I can’t tell.
I had lots of female buyers,I can’t specify whom you request from”
she said..
“she was putting on pure gold w@!st chain” shadia said.
the girl nodded.
“I don’t think i notice that” she said.
and I turned to look at xara.
“Akuna but we all saw gold w@!st chain on her” Adaeze said.
I got so jealous and heated up.
A buyer c@m£,
he bowed to us then entered.
“we should leave then” I said,
they followed me.
“the person we saw,can it be a spirit?” shadia asked.
“it can’t, what we saw was real…
my first suspect is the poor tramp Tracy called maid but on a second thought it might not be her” I said.
“what if it was her? her h!pwas similar even the w@!st line is quiet the same” sharia said.
“it can’t be her,
she can never afford the gold and besides,she is a maid to my b©yfri£nds sister” I rolled my eyeba-lls…
Shadia cleared her throat.
“You always call her a maid but to me Adeife doesn’t even look like a maid” she said.
“scam” Adaeze said.
“You too reason it,
Tracy is a very nice person who cares a lot for the poor…if she can buy cream to clear her cane marks do you think she can’t buy gold for Ife.
She always treat Ife like a sister”
shadia said.
“scam,that girl doesn’t look like a maid…” shadia still said.
“do not try matching my b©yfri£ndto that tramp…it’s okay alre-ady”
I silenced them.

believe by adesola adeomowole.m.
We entered “Omalicha” a place where dresses that are specially made for princesses are being sold,
we moved in and even sat,
the servants brou-ght out stock for us to select..
my mind wasn’t at rest throu-ghout,
I know that the person we are looking for is similar to you,ife.
and you c@m£ to buy clothes for the upcoming festival,
well for your safety it better not be you…
I got crazily heated up,
I didn’t buy anything.
Adeife’s💘💘p.o.v
I followed Ngozi around the market.
But this girl- isn’t she tired of buying?
“Enough,let’s just leave” I whispered.
“After this one we will leave to old Nana place” she said.
“Ngozi one oooo,
your one must not turn to two oo”
I replied and followed her to where they sell br@celets.
once you buy one,they will inscribe the short form of your name on it.
Ngozi got one,
the seller was inscribing her name, it was that moment I noticed the golf accessory was visibly showing on my w@!st.
chimooo😱😱😱😱😱
I used my f!nger to push it in,
it covered.
Finally,the old man was done with ngozi’s br@celet. It was beautiful, I loved the color she choose.
soooo colour blocking.
she stretched her hand forth,the man wore it for her,next he checked her palm with a de-ep insight.
“You’re indeed a strong woman with a strong faith; one day your good deeds would pay” the man said.
I smiled.I never knew he foretells the future to whosoever buy br@celets from him.
“thank you sir,that’s really true about me” ngozi replied.
I chuckled.
“would you make one for my friend?” she asked the man,
he nodded.
“my pretty maiden,choose a colour” he said.
I smiled as I don’t even have a best colour.I stared at the different colours.
I remembered lotanna,he loves white so much. Let me steal his color, and i choose white.
the br@celet was made for me within 30minutes.
“Ife” was written on it.
I stretched my have,the man wore it for me and checked my palms.
He took so long in looking into it.
is my future bad?
why is he taking long?…
finally he smiled.
“what is my future? good or bad?”
I asked.
“good and bad, which one should I say first?” he asked.
“Bad” I replied.
“they buried you countless times but they never knew you were a seed’
he said.
“sir,you’re speaking in parables”
I replied.
“is it onome that is burying me?” I asked..
He smiled.”that I can’t tell”.
“the good thing about your future is that the moon and stars are yours no one can take it away from you”
he said.
I smiled. I would be very grateful if this is really my future.
“can you check if my mother will appear in my future,I will pay for another bead” I said.
“yes,can you check if her mother is alive?” ngozi asked.
the rowdy market bec@m£ quiet,
A sign of respect that a royal horse is pas-sing.
“thank you sir” I whispered to the old man and dragged ngozi with me..
“what horse is that?” I asked.
“Prince iyke,one of the rude prince history had.He is from xudu kingdom” she said as we stayed in a corner beside the bead seller place.
my eyes caught princess Akuna and her likes walking slowly..
it was obvious they were coming to our direction as her eyes was on me-
is it because of my dress?
hmm thank goodness the gold isn’t showing,she won’t have any reason to persecute me.
she actually c@m£ to my side with her friends-
those spoilt princesses.
she s£nt her eyes to the new br@celet I got them back to my w@!st..
I got heated as I couldn’t breath properly because of the mean glares.
finally,I breathed out.
not like she knew I had on pure gold on my w@!st,
she cleared her throat and faced shadia.
Ngozi and I couldn’t move,
we had to stay where we are as a sign of respect to prince Iyke’s horse that was approaching.
“I told you she can’t own it,
something her generations can’t possibly afford” Akuna boosted in the pres£nce of her friends.
Ngozi frowned.”hope they are not referring to us….either princess or not,am not to be insulted” she said.
I sighed.”Just let them be,they are fond of hating on the poor mas-ses”
I told her back in a whisper.
that was when Akuna looked in my direction,
her eyes looked so scary and mean.
“and what did I tell you about the clothes like this?” she pointed to my dress….
“did my dressing in anyway affect you,why are you always picking on me?” I imagined myself saying but instead I took myl-ips in.
Ngozi shook her head and she pinched me to say something stylishly.
“I said it,females with long lashes have problems with br@ins” she said.
“Aunty Tracy said I should be dressing like this,and as at the last time I checked am not your slave so you don’t even have the right to tell me what to wear” I replied.
Ngozi was visibly burning with range.
“omg! she spoke back” Akuna said.
“Akuna people are looking,can you st©p embarras-sing me for once in your life” I said.
“did you just call my name?” Akuna asked.
“Akuna…who bears such names, a name that is given to dogs”
ngozi fired..
Akuna thought i was the one that spoke she moved closer and sl@pped me…..
“but I didn’t even say that?”-
she sl@pped me again..
“why not face me instead?” ngozi gawked…
“guards,get them both” she said without concern.
The guards c@m£ and took ngozi and me,Akuna felt like a celebrity that moment..
“you should have just left her”I said.
“whether she is a princess or not,am not to be bullied…this is the worst she can do;reporting to the queen…
it’s only you she can sl@p,
I swear if I were you I would sl@p mine back…and even at the end, I will only get punished” ngozi said.
“if we had left since,do you think all these would happen? I keep telling you that we should leave but you wouldn’t listen” I said.
“if I had follow you then we wouldn’t meet the soothsayer” she replied.
the guards toook us to the palace.
Isn’t this double trouble,
meeting the queen who alre-ady knows me as trouble.
she didn’t show up as she was busy with the council of ministers,the guards locked both Ngozi and I in a separate cell.
“why would Akuna have so much authority?” she asked.
“lotanna’s mother and her mother are best friends,so they spoilt her with so much control” I replied.
She was quiet for a while.
“Ife am sorry,I caused this” she said.
⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰
21hours pas-sed.
Everywhere got dark as the heavy rain poured,we were cold with rain water in the place the guards kept us.
Isn’t this p@rt of her plan??
And the queen,did she forget us here too?.
“Are you hungry?” ngozi asked.
“I’m not hungry,am worried about what we bought we left them at the man’s sto-re… I just pray it would be safe” I replied.
“Am sorry” she said.
The rain still got heavy…
“guess the queen couldn’t come out cos of the rain” she said in a sleepy voice.She sle-pt like that.
I keep looking around searching for Nkem.
I shivered with cold as I heard the sound of the gate opening, I prayed it should be nkem, I turned ~~
It was prince lotanna.
By this time⏰?.
He approached,I admired him from afar,watching him as he walk so slowly in the heavy rain….
have he forgotten he has cold?.
I turned my face away as he drew nearer.He mustn’t see me like this in this condition.
I turned my face out when he had pas-sed and continued my admiration
🎶 one more last look
🎶 one more last song,
🎶 one more chance, just let me in…
I sang in my heart when he had gone far till he couldn’t be seen.
guess this is my fate,
have learnt to accept this and I will keep accepting it without a doubt.
I got crazily cold as I watch ngozi dozzing off,I smiled.
“Ifedimma,what did you do this time around?” I heard a voice,
and I felt sweetness from the inside but I thought he didn’t see me..
it was lotanna
waaaaattt💦💦💦💦💦
the sweetness increa-sed,
I turned and there he was standing in front of where I was locked-
“It..was…nothing”,
I nodded,he picked the iron rod that was lying on the floor.
I couldn’t st©p staring at him as he interloop the lock..
the door opened,ngozi ran out.
“my prince thank you” she said and ran out..
Lotanna stared at me blankly and dropped the rod.
“Thank you” I said; was I high? staring at him like he is mine when he is not even my friend.
I walked out so slow and sluggishly, the rain really made me weak.
Lotanna held me well and helped me out properly as he brushed his sweet f!ngersinto mine.
“You walk so slow”
he muttered so softly.
my leg cramped,he still held me and looked around…
no one was coming,
he carried me💦💦💦💦💦💦💦.
where too???
by the time I opened my eyes,we were in his suite
#Believe_🎻🎺🎤
[I know you won’t stay💝]
.
#SEASON_2_EPISODE_12🎻.
my feverishness disappeared when he took me into his suite;
is this not the third time I will enter here?
why would he bring me here?.
finally,he dropped me.
I looked around the suite…it was a mesmerizing sight to behold.
“my prince,it seems am lost”
I said and tried running out,
he dragged me back so tenderly.
“the maids quarter would have been locked,where would you stay in this heavy rain?” he asked so sweetly.
I smiled and bowed,
I kept looking at his hand on mine…
I can’t believe he was still holding my have with his hand were he wore a diamond la-id br@celet and two simple rings,
how is he comfortable with someone like me around…we must not be seen together.
I used my other hand were he was not holding to open the door so I can leave….he moved me in and closed the door.
“thanks for your kindness” I smiled and bowed.
And I thought he was mean but everything about him made me get add!çted…
everyone gets add!çted.
He is too kind,
he is as beautiful as a flower,
I will always love and be kind to you,
but I don’t want you to love and be kind to me cos you can’t be mine and I can’t be yours.
He walked in and still dragged my hand with so much care.
no guard was in the prince room…… so sweet.
there was a phone on the white heavenly couch,it rang.
He left me and went towards it.
“how much is the offer”📲
“okay okay,s£nd them in”📲
“sure”📲
“make it known to jedinna”📲
“goodnight,I might check in”📲.
He dropped the call and approached where I stood beside the stairway,I shift away from the way.
isn’t he feeling cold?
gosh😱 I feel like am in an iced ocean…maybe death should just come now.
“what made you get locked up in that disgusting place?” he asked.
“it was- I paused..
no,it would sound stupid if I should tell him his girlfriend bullied me and my friend for no reason, he might as well get angry at her..I don’t want to cause a fight in their relationsh!p.
“was it Akuna?” he asked.
I stayed quiet and nodded my head negatively.
“ummm I actually did something bad” I lied.
“jesus and i promise not to lie to him”
I signed as I remembered that nee-dle tattoo incident.
“you did something bad” he said.
“as you know sir,am a trouble maker.I disrespected princess Akuna” I replied.
he looked at me for a while,
I hope you forgive me for not saying the truth…well I can’t make my life more pathetic by fighting with someone that I know will always win.
fighting Akuna won’t take me anywhere, all the strenghts I have for her are useless….
she always use her control to put me in the wrong place even when am right…
she thought i wanted everything but I do not even have anything,
I do not even know how to want too much–
the only reason i nee-d to be alive is for my mother so i can finally know my fate,if she is alive or dead.
Lotanna had gotten to the room door, he turned to me as he dropped his call.
“hey just come with me” he said.
I better follow him because one, my cloth is soa-ked in rain water,two I think staying in the room would be so much better than the living room.
I walked up and moved close to him, he opened another door and step aside for me to move in,I entered.
“goodnight” he said and close the door from behind.
I got happy as i admired the extremely wi-de be-droom.The sight of the be-d alone made me feel sleepy but my cloth is so much we-t.
I moved close to the be-d.
Gosh; is this is be-droom?.
I looked around over and over again in bemusement. There was a big Ben wall clock with golden bars all over the plastered wall,the walls were decorated to look like a typical royalty place.
my eyes moved to the be-d side drawer; what greeted me was the sight of money scattered all over that corner, coins were all over there also.
I watched other fansy things.
the toilet was something else with the bluish floor,in it was an artificial moving fish.It looked pretty and cute down there.I was puzzled,it was my first time seeing something like that.
I looked right and saw his jewelry box alone scattered on the floor on one side..
lotanna are you this careless?.
I stared at everything,.
I guess that’s why princess akuna won’t st©p boosting around.To her, he is a good catch.
Lotanna’s p.o.v💦
I still don’t un-derstand why i always feel bad seeing Ife in so much pain.. oh yes am in love with her from the start but what if she end up being killed like the rest-
if I experience that pain of losing someone i love again,I might die.
I got back to the be-droom door and opened the door,she was standing on the exact sp©t that I left her,
her other hand was wra-pped around her w@!st-maybe the w@!st bead I s£nt nkem to deliver.
did he even mention my name to her?
the paper I gave her,did she re-ad it?
Her hands went to her che-st the moment I entered.
“you can wear this for the night” I said and handed her a sealed pink packed bag..
“that’s a set of nighties for females, wear anyone you like” I said while walking to the shower door.
I turned and met the shape of herl-ips,sooo beautiful and nicely pouted.
“thank you sir,but did you buy this for me?” she asked.
I took myl-ips in.
“it’s coming from Tracy” I said.
“it’s really pretty,I love it…this would be the most special thing in my belongings,God will bless you for me” she closed her mouth in a smile as she checked it.
“and she just prayed for me”
I blu-shed.
Of course this actually c@m£ from me and I always pay Tracy to get you things she knows you admire, and sometimes I buy things for you myself and ask her to give you on my behalf…I give her money to give you.
if you like them all,then am happy.
she smiled the more and re-leased her other hand from her w@!st, I saw the gold chain.
Nkem actually delivered it.
“if you want anything more,you can as well tell Tracy” I said and went over to my jewelry box,I could feel Ife entering into a section to change.
I picked what i wanted to pick and turned,she was out alre-ady..
she actually choose the white one.
Jeeex,she wore it in the wrong direction.
“Ifedimma you didn’t wear it well”
I said.
she entered the changing room again,few minutes later she was out. She still wore it wrongly.
“it’s still wrong,okay”
“firstly the robe belt isn’t tied well and lastly the nightie jacket isn’t worn like that” I said.
she signed and moved in again,
minutes later she was out.
she got it right but the belt wasn’t tied well.
“thank you sir” she said.
I nodded and took one of my l@pt©p as I la-id gently on one side of the be-d a chewing gum pack was beside me.
I to-re one and started chewing in slowly.
i wanted keenly as she intend slee-ping on the floor…
hmmm she is so different.If I had the chance to be with 100girls for ten minutes,
80 will try s£dûç!ng me,
20 will str!p n-ked in my pres£nce…
but here is her who doesn’t get carried away by material things and she sle-pt on the tied floor,
no mattress no be-d spre-ad in this heavy rain..she might get sick.
“Ifedimma” I called..
“yes my prince,do you want something?she asked.
“yes” I said and she stood up.
“what sir? she said.
“sleep on the be-d,you might get worse in health issues if you remain on the floor” I said.
she smiled and moved in.
she left like 4peoples space between us and her back was turned against me…so funny.
Adeife’s p.o.v🎤.
I smiled as I sle-pt on a very close end,I don’t even know why i felt so happy…. bu-tterflies won’t st©p rolling in my tommy.
he said I might get worse in health condition if I sleep on the floor, does that means he cares?
have been slee-ping on the floor for close to 20years now and nothing happened to my health.
I smiled,seems he really care.
Ngozi said the gold chain might come from him…how true is this or should I even ask him?
even the paper note he gave me,I still haven’t find out what was there.
I smiled and rolled forgetting I was at the end; aaah I might fall.
I felt his hand pu-lling me back. I smiled and stayed well..
His phone rang,he picked it.
“Hi,this is Fiona”📲
“am I speaking to mr Nigeria”📲
“how did you get my number?”📲
he asked,the caller was silent.
“well all girls are chea….”
he looked at me and just ended the call…I smiled inwardly.
should I ask him??
god help your daughter!
I crossed my heart and faced him, he dropped his red la-id phone and faced me while chewing in quietly.
waooow,he even wore a foam sli-ppers to sleep..
“sir did you buy….
“sir did you s£nd gold w@!st chain to someone recently” I asked.
he turned to me,his face c@m£ closer,
I got shocked he was so close to me. He s£nt his eyes to my robe,
I cleared my throat.
what can he be looking at when nothing is expo-sed?
