THE PRESIDENT DAUGHTER
SEASON ==2==EPISODE ==35
***KNOW THIS***
“Ask and it shall be given to you”. Our
earthly Parents may know what we nee-d but
they’d expect you to tell them by yourself
what you really want. We all know that GOD
is our FATHER and HE knows our various
heart de-sires; He expects us to have it in
mind that HE’s always there for us and for
us to ask HIM for our nee-ds. There is
nothing neither too big nor too small to ask
our GOD. HE is always there for us only if
we could go to HIM. HE is our ALL
SUFFICIENT GOD! And always remember to
thank HIM for everything. How would you
feel if you did someone a favour and he/she
refused to say ‘Thank You’?
But if anyone ask you,
tell them my friend U.S.Bah says so 😎
**CONTINUED**
I started hearing gunsh0ts from the outside;
I didn’t know what to do because I was tied
down and I can’t call for help, who will I call
when I don’t really know what was going
on?
I struggled to throw myself down but I
couldn’t; I started praying slowly while
facing the entrance door. Just then Lola
bur-st in.
Me: Lola? **Surprised** what are you doing
here?
Lola: c@m£ to rescue your a$$, where is
Mirabel?
Me: I dunno where they’re keeping her
Lola: **untying me** we nee-d to find her
before Dorothy and her full gang gets here
Me: Ok but how did you know we’re here?
Lola: Now is not the time to talk about that,
we nee-d to leave this place as soon as we
get Mirabel
(She untied me)
Me: Thanks Lola
Lola: You can thank me when we leave this
place in one piece. Now that I’ve found you,
I nee-d to call Mirabel’s mother for
reinf0rç£ment because we’re no match for
Dorothy’s gang. But the problem is how will
they trace us?
Me: Where is your phone?
Lola: Here… **Handed her phone to me**
Lemme go look for Mirabel
Me: Ok
I wanted to call Ike but I dunno his number
off-hand not even Vincent or Frank’s. Then
I dialed Nancy’s number since she’s been
freed but it was switched off. I swiftly
scrolled throu-gh her contact list in search of
the first lady’s number; I dialed it as soon
as I found it. She picked the phone…
Me: Hello? It’s Victor Ma
First lady: Victor what happened to you?
Where have you been? And why’d you call
me with Lola’s cell phone?
Me: plea-se s£nd me Frank’s number ma.
It’s urgent
First lady: Urgent? Where are you?
Me: Ma this is extremely urgent; plea-se
s£nd me Frank or Vincent’s number I nee-d
it very badly to get myself and Mirabel out
from here
First lady: Ok Ok… give me a minute
Me: plea-se hurry up Ma or better still, just
s£nd this number to them. Tell them to
track it and get to the location as soon as
possible with the Police or the Army
First lady: Ok alright I’ll do that right away
*She hangs up*
I put the phone on silent and hid it
somewhere in the room then I walked out of
the room to see what’s going on outside. On
stepping out, I saw the lifeless b©dy of
those two guys that c@m£ into the room
with Dorothy of which one of them knocked
me down when I tried to follow Dorothy. I
picked up one of their gun (a rifle) in case
of anything.
Mirabel: Victor!
*I turned around and saw Mirabel with
Cynthia*
-She ran towards me and hvgged me very
ti-ght while I did the same-
Mirabel: Oh my God… thank God you’re
alive! I thought you died, I mean I saw you
dead. They brou-ght your b©dy to me and
you were dead **crying**
Me: They faked it, I’m not dead
Mirabel: What happened? Where did they
keep you?
Me: They tied me down on a chair in that
room **Pointing the room** so what
happened to you? Where is Marcus?
Lola: Here…
**We saw Lola coming with three other girls
and Marcus with his hands tied together **
I left Mirabel immediately and ran towards
Marcus and beat him up
Lola: Victor that’s enough, we nee-d to get
going now
(They had to dragged me off him before I
could let him go)
Lola: The car is parked somewhere along
the way, so we nee-d to get there fast
because it’s not too close
While getting out of the building, Lola and
Cynthia with Marcus were behind us while I
and Mirabel were in the middle as the other
three girls take the lead ahead of us. So I
couldn’t help but ask Mirabel something
that has been bothering me.
Me: Did he t©uçh you?
Mirabel: Who?
Me: Marcus
Mirabel: **Speechless and uncomfortable**
Me: Talk to me, did he sleep with you?
Mirabel: We will talk about everything that
happened here when we get home
Me: I don’t want you to say everything; I
just want a yes or no
At that point, we were on verge of stepping
out of the building before we heard
gunsh0ts killing the girls who were alre-ady
out of the building so we ran back into the
building to take refuge
Lola: Dorothy is here!
Cynthia: What do we do now?
Marcus: Surrender
Me: Shut up!
Marcus: You can’t escape now
Me: How about I b!ow your head off?
Marcus: I will have nothing to lose
Dorothy: **From outside** Lola! You’re
outstr!pped! I give you all 50 seconds to
come out and surrender or we will shoot
aimlessly at you till you all die. 1…
2….3…..4…….
Marcus: Your time is budging very fast
Me: You shut your mouth up!
Mirabel: What are we going to do now?
Dorothy: 29…30….31…
Lola: Let’s go
Me: I will take the lead
Mirabel: Are you sure?
Me: Yea let’s go
I dragged Marcus with me as I take the lead
out of the building to Dorothy.
Dorothy: Drop any weapon you have on you
**Lola and Cynthia unharmed themselves; I
alre-ady dropped the gun I had with me
inside**
Dorothy: Go check them and take the
guns**Ordering her guys**
Guy 1: Clear
Dorothy: **c@m£ closer and stood face to
face with Lola** Remember me?
Lola: Yea you’re that b!tch I ditched off
some time ago
Dorothy: Really? Good thing you remember
and I hope your guts save you today. Now
let Marcus go
*I hesitated*
Dorothy: Let him go now! **Pointing gun at
us**
*I let go of him go; immediately he punched
my stomach two times. Mirabel screamed
out. I thought Dorothy would scold him for
punching me but she didn’t. Instead, she
sh0t him three times in the che-st *
Dorothy: You ba$tard! I warned you
**referring to Marcus**. Now move inside
all of you
**We went inside the building and stayed in
the bigger room**
Dorothy: Victor come here
Me: **Refused to move**
Dorothy: come here!
Me: No!
**The next thing I heard was pow! She sh0t
Lola in the che-st**
Mirabel: **Screamed** Lola!
**I saw Lola on the ground with blood
spilling down from her mouth and her b©dy
where she was sh0t**
Dorothy: I’m not pla-ying around Victor;
come to my side
Me: You crazy b!tch! (I ran towards her with
rage to harm her)
Dorothy: Victor! **Pow**
Me: Ah! **she sh0t me at the left side of
my che-st; I fell down**
Mirabel: Oh my God! Victor!
Dorothy: **Shocked** what have I done?
**Just then we started hearing serious
gunsh0ts outside; more like a gun battle
this time**
Cynthia: (Peeping throu-gh the window) the
army is here
Dorothy was still standing dumb; still in
shock when Cynthia stunned her with a hit
and pinned her down so she won’t escape
while Mirabel was telling me to hold on and
be strong that help is here.
The military c@m£ into the building and took
over it. One of them said ‘clear’ then Ike
and Frank c@m£ in to identify the victims.
They pointed us excluding Dorothy so the
military arrest her and immediately took us
out for medical attention.
THE PRESIDENT DAUGHTER
SEASON ==2==EPISODE ==36
They started providing medical attention
from the military’s moving vehicle before
we got to their clinic for proper medical
service. They injected me something and I
sle-pt off immediately; that’s when they did
operation on me to re-move the bullet
without me knowing.
I dunno how long I sle-pt but I woke up and
the first person I saw was Vincent who was
seated on a nearby chair re-ading a book
and then Mirabel seated side by side with
Nancy. None of them could see that I was
awake and I couldn’t utter a word. I could
feel the pain from where I was sh0t; so I
was like that till Vincent sighted me.
Vincent: He’s awake
*Mirabel and Nancy instantly upstretched
their heads facing me**
Mirabel: Victor?
Nancy: **Runs out of the room probably to
call the Doctor**
Mirabel: Thank God you’re awake **smiling
with tears in her eyes**
**The door bur-st open letting in the Doctor
and a nurse with my Mother, Mirabel’s
mother – the First lady and surprisingly my
Father – The boss**
{The military Doctor examined me for a
many seconds then injected me}
Doctor: He nee-d to rest for now, plea-se
don’t let him speak much maybe for the
next 12 hours so his wound will heal up fast
Momma: Ok Doctor; should we give him
food? He hasn’t eaten for the past two days
Doctor: The drip is Ok for him now but if he
would like to eat, no problem. Will you like
to eat something Victor?
Me: **I nodded my head left and right
meaning No**
Doctor: What about a drink?
Me: **Thinking about it in my head**
Doctor: Do you want a drink?
Me: **Nodded my head up and down
meaning Yes**
Doctor: Ok Madam, you can make enquiry
on what he’d like to drink and provide for
him
Momma: Ok Doctor
Doctor: **Walks out with his nurse**
Momma: What will you drink Victor?
Me: **I turned my head facing Mirabel; she
un-derstood and smiled**
Nancy/Mirabel: *Both chorused* Hollandia
yoghurt! (I just smiled)
Nancy and Mirabel ran out to get the
yoghurt; My Dad talked to me a little then
left saying he’d come back tomorrow; Frank
c@m£ in with Jummy to check on me;
Mirabel’s mother – the first lady kept
thanking me for rescuing her daughter
before she left; Cynthia c@m£ in as well, I
managed to ask her about Lola, she said
Lola is in the intensive care unit on life
support battling for her life. She lost so
much blood before the help c@m£. Poor
Lola, I pray she make it; she’s a great
friend even with her little flaws and the
issue we both had.
Mirabel and Nancy c@m£ back with the
yoghurt and Mirabel fed me with it.
Me: Where is Ike?
Mirabel: Oh… he alre-ady left; he said
something c@m£ up so he returned back to
the states
Me: How long have I been here?
Mirabel: Two days
Me: Hhmmm…
Momma: Won’t you eat something?
Me: No
Vincent: Hero how far
(I knew he was teasing me)
Me: Not funny
**They all laughed**
Vincent: I’m serious, see for yourself
**showing me a newspaper then another
one**
Both papers headlined the happenings that
took place. The first lady spoke on how
Lola, Cynthia and I risked our lives to save
her daughter. They pictured the lifeless
b©dy of Marcus and how Dorothy killed him
and got detained by the Military.
Vincent, Cynthia, Frank, Jummy and Nancy
left later in the evening while Momma
remained with me and Mirabel; she
(Mirabel) refused to go. Momma says she
wants to go get food for dinner; Mirabel
offered to go with her. I told her to stay
back that I want to talk to her but she
diss£nted and followed her.
I noticed she’s been trying to avoid my
question, why? I dunno, all I know is that
she can’t escape it. Her attitude tells me
the answer I fear but I want to hear it from
her mouth.
A Military Nurse (A lady) c@m£ after they
left to administer drugs on me.
Nurse: Hi Victor
Me: Good morning
Nurse: Morning… how are you feeling now?
Me: Better
Nurse: Okay… lemme inject you so you’ll
get well and strong sooner
Me: **Speechless till she injected me and
changed the drip**
Nurse: You’re really br@ve to go into the
den of the most wanted man in Nigeria to
rescue a girl
Me: She’s not just a girl, she’s the
President’s daughter and….
Nurse: And?
Me: Nothing, never mind
Nurse: Okay… would you consider joining
the Army? The Army nee-ds br@ve
personalities like you
Me: **Smiles** Nah… **Sounded funny to
me**
Nurse: Common… you’re great, just say
you’re interested then boom! You got it.
You will be scrolling past the ranks like
pages of a book
Me: **Laughs**
Nurse: I’m serious, you saved the
President’s daughter; do you have any idea
of what that portends? You have earn
yourself a great favor in the eyes of the
President and the first lady
Me: Thanks for your concern Nurse, but I
have my own plans
Nurse: Just have a rethink and volte-face
about it dear
Me: Alright
Nurse: I’m Norah by the way
Me: Yea I know, it’s tagged on you
Nurse: Oh yea… just want to do the
introduction myself
Me: Ok then… I’m Victor
Nurse: I know that **we both laughed**
Nice meeting you
Me: Same here
Nurse: I’m hoping this clinic won’t be our
last place of meeting **Smiling**
Me: I dunno… we’ll see
**Door opens**
Nurse: Ok we’re done here
Me: Thanks Nurse
Nurse: **Walks away**
Me: Welcome
Mirabel: Thanks
Me: Where is my mother?
Mirabel: In the ladies room
Me: You’re yet to answer my question
Mirabel: But I just said she’s in the ladies
room
Me: I know and I’m not talking about that
one; you know what I’ve been asking you of
**Momma walks; we had to suspend the
t©pic**
They both ate what they bought and gave
me an energy drink which I drank.
**The following morning**
Momma left for the house to have her bath
and change her clothes; she asked Mirabel
to stay with me till Nancy comes around.
I noticed how Mirabel was roaming about in
and out of the ward probably trying to
escape my question. So I decided to confess
mine so she’d feel even and confess hers
as well.
**I told her immediately she walked into the
room**
Me: Dorothy f0rç£fully had $ex with me
**Expecting her response**
*She stood still and faced me looking
surprised for many seconds with
disappointment written all over her face*
Mirabel: **gr@bb£d her jacket and vacate
the room without saying a word even when I
called her**
*I couldn’t un-derstand why she reacted that
way; I kept on thinking and wondering
before the Military Nurse walked in*
Nurse: How are you doing today my hero?
Me: Much better, good morning
Nurse: Good morning… hope you sle-pt well?
Me: Yea
Nurse: Did you urinate at night?
Me: No
Nurse: Okay… **She changed the drip,
injected me and gave me some tablets to
gulp** Seems you’ll be discharged anytime
soon
Me: Thanks Nurse
Nurse: Norah plea-se
Me: Okay…
Nurse: Call me lemme hear
Me: …Norah?
Nurse Norah: Yeah…**Smiling** so you will
give me your number now just in case you
get discharged when I’m on shift
**I called my number for her**
Nurse Norah: It’s switched off
Me: Oh… yea I forgot I lost my phone
Nurse Norah: When you went to rescue the
President’s daughter I guess
Me: Yea
Nurse Norah: You will do a welcome back
right?
Me: Yea
Nurse Norah: Okay… or give me your
address
Me: Why?
Nurse Norah: In case you fail to do a
welcome back
Me: I will do it
Nurse Norah: I still want to have your
address, or you don’t want me to visit you
sometime?
**I just gave her the address and she wrote
it down**
Nurse Norah: Thanks, lemme go and attend
to other patients
Me: Okay…
**She gave me a pe-ck and left** seriously,
this Norah is another person to be worried
about oh… because I don’t un-derstand all
this her attitude. And I’m very sure she’s
like 4 to 5 years older than me.
*Vincent c@m£ in some minutes later with
Frank and Jummy; we exchanged
plea-santries and natters*
Vincent: Where is Mirabel?
Me: Uhmmm… she left for a while
Frank: **Speaks into his official ear piece**
Copy that
Vincent: Who’s that?
Frank: Your father’s personal security
detail; he says the President is here to see
the boy, that’s Victor
Me: **I was shocked, bemused, flummoxed,
surprised, dumbfounded and speechless**
