===THE PRESIDENT DAUGHTER===
SEASON==2==EPISODE==47

Happy New Month all 😘

Marcus never st©pped s£nding me “plea-se
Call Me” messages during those nine days
and I kept on ignoring him until he called
me himself and I picked up.
Me: Hello
Marcus: Hello man you said you were
gonna’ help me; I’m totally broke mahn…
plea-se!
Me: Why did you ask me to meet up with
you?
Marcus: Because that’s the only way for me
to get the money, I can’t go to your house
Me: Nothing has ever gone well whenever I
meet with you
Marcus: But that’s the only way
Me: Don’t you have a bank account?
Marcus: scre-w that mahn; my Dad got it
frozen
Me: Sorry I can’t meet you
Marcus: You still don’t believe me, do you?
I can’t do nothing to you mahn. I alre-ady
bow
Me: I’ll think about something and get back
to you
Marcus: Oh mehn…
Me: Alright come to my ap@rtment tonight
Marcus: Really?
Me: Wait I’m not done talking. You’re not
coming in; just outside the gate where I’ll
leave the money in a corner for you to pick
up and go. And you must be very careful; I
dunno what will happen to you if you’re
sp©tted
Marcus: Why? What’s wrong?
Me: Just follow what I say and you won’t
get into trouble
Marcus: Ok no problem… time?
Me: From 8:00.pm
Marcus: Alright mahn… I trust you
Me: Wish I could say the same to you
Marcus: No I un-derstand, trust is earned… I
get it
Me: Alright **hangs up**
I don’t even know how much I’m going to
give him, and I can’t tell Mirabel about it. I
thought about it then decided to give him
₦250,000. I can’t believe I’m going to do
this, giving money to Marcus? So awkward!
I dashed to the bank later in the evening
and made some withdrawals; I kept it
somewhere in a corner outside my gate
when it got dark, then I texted him how to
find it.
The following morning, I went out to check
the money, but it wasn’t there; He must
have taken it. I tried to call him to confirm
if he took it but his number didn’t go
throu-gh after several trials. He took it
without thanking me? Well… I just hope he
has left for good.
Two more exam papers remaining for us to
write. We kept on re-ading and working to
get good grades. That Fred of a guy kept
showering Promise with love and gifts. To
us, he is madly in love with her and we
think he is a good guy suitable for Promise.
After finishing the second to the last paper
on Monday, I hanged out one on one with
Promise to discuss about her relationsh!p
with Fred.
Me: So… how is your relationsh!pgoing with
Fred?
Promise: Fine, he is loving, caring and
always want to be seeing me
Me: Hhmmm… I can see you’ve found what
you want in a man
Promise: Well… I’m beginning to like him
Me: And love?
Promise: Not sure about that yet
Me: He loves you dearly, you should love
him too. He is ma-king good use of the
chance you gave him
Promise: (Staring at me somehow) why are
you doing this?
Me: I want you to be happy and feel loved
Promise: Is that how love should be?
Me: What are you saying again? This guy is
re-ady to love you
Promise: Agreed but what about me?
Me: Love him too
Promise: (Small tears in her eyes) Okay…
I’ll try, besides I’m not getting younger, I
should move on
Me: Yea! That’s the spirit!! (Holding her)
Fred: Hey guys
Me: (I took my hand off Promise) Hey…
Fred: Mind if I have her? Been looking for
her, I miss her so much **smiling**
Me: Sure! She’s all yours (I saw Promise
blu-shing)
Fred: Let’s go **holding Promise**
We met the others then zoomed out from
School anticipating for our final paper in
two days’ time. After we p@rted our ways
that day, we didn’t see each other till the
final exam day; I didn’t go to the lodge
because I want to study and work on the
website and Mirabel on the other hand
didn’t come to my ap@rtment so she’ll
prepare very well for the final paper. I tried
Marcus’ line but it didn’t go throu-gh, so I
st©p trying.
The day c@m£; I went to school feeling well-
prepared to pieces the exam and to see my
lovely fiancée who I miss so much. I was in
School before them; when they c@m£, I
noticed some bruises on Promise and I
asked her immediately I saw it but after I
have alre-ady spoken with Mirabel.
Me: (Close to her) what happened to you?
Promise: I fell from a bike
Me: Which bike?
Promise: Okada na
Me: When and how?
Promise: On Monday, later in the evening
when I was returning back to the lodge
Me: Where did you even go to?
Promise: From Fred, I didn’t go straight to
the lodge after we p@rted ways; he took me
out for lunch
Me: Why didn’t he drop you after picking
you up from school?
Promise: He couldn’t, he said something
c@m£ up that he had to attend to
Me: Hhmmm… you have to be careful next
time
Promise: Of course
I feel something wasn’t right, I couldn’t
doubt her because I know she doesn’t tell
lies; why would she even lie? I shunned my
thoughts on that.
We all went to where we normally study
together, did some revision before the
commencement of the exam. During the
exam, a guy almost got me into trouble. He
was copying my work and I couldn’t hide it
from him. A lady invigilator took me from
my seat to another one, maybe she
suspected something. And the guy foolishly
followed me to where she took me to and
sat behind me to continue copying my work.
I didn’t know if I should laugh or get mad
at him for the foolish act. The worst thing,
she tried to st©p him but he refused and
insisted on coming to where I was seated.
She had to take me to another seat at the
back where there was no space for him to
come and seat. I saw how the guy kept
looking back in a pitiful way; I couldn’t help
but laughed out a little, even the invigilator
couldn’t help but also let out a smile. Good
thing the wicked supervisors weren’t around
that time.

THE PRESIDENT DAUGHTER
SEASON==2==EPISODE==48

We concluded our exams and it was a good
one. We gathered outside talking, taking
ph0tos and other things; we were just so
happy. The dep@rtment organized a p@rty
but we won’t be attending it; Fred arranged
a small indoor p@rty for us, that is; Me,
Promise, Mirabel, and Cynthia. And also
Nancy and Vincent will also come.
He took us to his house later that night; he
has a beautiful house with fleet of cars. He
entertained us very well and it was really
fun as we were all in twos except for
Cynthia, she broke up with her b©yfri£nd.
We appreciated him and left there after
hours of fun and pla-yfulness.

[Phone rings – Caller: Frank]
Me: Hello Frank
Frank: Hello, Marcus is currently in custody
now
Me: Huh? How was he found?
Frank: Based on the report we got, he was
found travelling in a night bus to his
hometown when the Army st©pped and
searched the bus at their check-point and
arrested him when they found him.
Me: What will happen to him now?
Frank: Back to prison of course
Me: Uhmmm… ok
Frank: Aren’t you supposed to be happy? I
don’t un-derstand your tone
Me: There’s something you didn’t know
Frank: What is it?
Me: He reached me and apologized for
everything he has done
Frank: What? And you listened to him?
Me: He sounded sincere
Frank: Are you kidding? Have you forgotten
all he did?
Me: I didn’t forget anything ok?
Frank: Then what are you saying?
Me: I have forgiven him
Frank: Well… that can’t change what’s going
to happen to him now
Me: I know, I told him to be careful
Frank: Wait… are you saying that you knew
he was leaving town?
Me: No, got to go, upd@t£ me if anything
comes up
Frank: Alright
Me: **Hangs up**
Well… it’s no longer my fault that he got
caught; I tried for him after all he did to
me. It’s clear that he can’t run from justice
here on earth, even Dorothy faced justice
even though I forgave her.

Promise remained in Abuja after the exams
and enrolled into a computer institute for
the knowledge and certificate; she can’t
stay in Mirabel’s lodge anymore as Mirabel
won’t be staying there anymore so I told her
to stay in my ap@rtment with Nancy because
I won’t be stable as I’ll be preparing for my
marriage with Mirabel, the elections and my
pas-sport and visa to the United states.
I took Mirabel to my hometown and
pres£nted her to my close relatives as the
girl I’m getting married to and she also did
the same by taking me to her hometown
yoru-baland where I met with her Grand-
mother from her Father’s side and her
Grand-parents from her mother’s side and
all the visits were favoured by God as they
all went so well.
Mirabel has alre-ady left the lodge, now with
her Parents in Aso rock and Cynthia also
with her family. Marcus’ s£ntence was
extended and he is to spend 42 years in
prison with ha-rd labour for his uncompleted
s£ntence, breaking out of prison,
kidnapping the president’s daughter with
two other ladies (that is, Nancy and Jummy)
and being Dorothy’s p@rtner in crime etc.
As for me, I got back to our family’s duplex
to stay and bec@m£ very busy doing many
things plus working on my website where
money kept flowing. The house is always
empty, Dad always out for business and
Momma working with the first-lady and all.
I’m a man now; I can go out to anywhere I
want. I even travelled with Mirabel to Jos to
visit Joy – my older sister and she was very
happy that we visited. We spent two days
there before returning back to Abuja. My
communication with Ike didn’t slack not a
bit; he is going to be my best man. I s£nt
him my measurement as he requested to
get the wedding suits made.
I was in the house one evening resting and
sipping hollandia yoghurt after working all
day on the website when Nancy called me
to inform me about something terrible.
Nancy: It’s Promise
Me: What about her?
Nancy: She just c@m£ to the house with
bruises on her face and some p@rt of her
b©dy
Me: What happened to her?
Nancy: She said she was robbe-d on her way
back but I don’t think that’s what actually
happened
Me: Why do you think she’ll lie?
Nancy: She said she was robbe-d but nothing
seemed to be missing from her possession,
her phone and bag with her l@pt©p were
intact
Me: Promise can’t tell lies
Nancy: Believe me s£nior bro, I think Fred is
beating her up
Me: What?!
Nancy: That’s what I’m thinking
Me: Promise is the nicest girl I have ever
known, why would Fred beat her up? No,
that can’t happen
Nancy: I’m the one here with her so you
have to believe me; I’ve witnessed how he
drags her along with him if Promise refuses
to go out with him, he treats her as if he
owned her completely like she’s he’s slave.
He dictates on her
Me: **Boiling with anger** Fred doing that
to Promise?! Is he stupid?
Nancy: I dunno oh… plea-se you have to do
something before this goes too far
Me: But why will Promise hide this from
me?
Nancy: I dunno… she must be the type that
doesn’t speak out even when dying slowly
Me: This can’t be… that girl deserves the
best in life not this
Nancy: It was you guys that got her into
this, you persisted her to accept that
monster
Me: We were only trying to do her a favour,
so she’ll also have a man in her life and I
thought Fred was a good guy
Nancy: As it is right now, you didn’t do her
any favour but brou-ght pain to her
Me: Oh God! Are you serious about all this?
Nancy: She’s not enjoying the relationsh!p
bro, she’s not at all. Fred even has a night
club
Me: A night club?
Nancy: Yeah…. one “Jollity Nite Club”
Me: He took me there once before but never
mentioned it belongs to him
Nancy: He own and runs it, he is not a good
guy. I think he do drugs as well
Me: That ba$tard! I shall be there tomorrow
to speak with Promise
Nancy: plea-se do
Me: What about you and Vincent?
Nancy: We’re good and happy together
Me: Ok good,,, see you tomorrow
Nancy: Ok bye
Me: Bye **hangs up**
Oh no! What have we got Promise into? It’s
all my fault. So he even runs a nite club, no
wonder he said the club is never closed for
him the time he took me there. I nee-d to
speak with Promise one on one before I will
think of what to do.
~ But why has she been quiet?
~ Why didn’t she tell me what’s going on?
~ Why did she have to start telling lies?
