THE PRESIDENT’S DAUGHTER
SEASON 2 EPISODE 53
I dunno what’s in the diary, but her reaction just got me feeling so nervous and scared on what she might have discovered.
Me: Why would you go throu-gh her diary? It’s so not right na, you’re invading her priv…
Mirabel: **cuts in** If I hadn’t gone throu-gh it, I wouldn’t have discovered this secret you both are hiding
Me: That diary must be containing her pri-vate life, plea-se respect it and go keep it for her; I don’t want to know what’s in it plea-se…
Mirabel: Do you even know what I’m talking about here? I’m talking about a lady professing her love for my man that’s supposed to be her friend. What do you know about this victor?
Me: Her diary should be her 100% privacy; I didn’t even know she has a diary till now. So… whatever it is you see in it is her privacy plea-se Mirabel, st©p all this doubts for it’s not helping matters at all. How can this help our marriage that’s coming next month? plea-se don’t give the devil a chance to destroy us
Mirabel: It would’ve been mare doubts if I had no prove, Fred warned me about something like this, and look what’s happening? From flir-ty chats to professing of love in a diary, that you’re the only man she loves, is that also just a friend thing? So you’re even the reason why she can’t have a b©yfri£nd? No wonder! I thought it was about her being a good girl and a saint, not knowing she has my man at heart; Victor are you having an affair with her?
Me: Of course not!
Mirabel: You’re lying,,, there’s no explanation for this anymore! Fred was right all along
Me: Mirabel… I have nothing to do with her; I never had any intim-acy with her even before I got to know you
Mirabel: You both are deceitful!
Me: How can be saying something like this? We’ve been together for four years and I’ve never for once proven to be unworthy in any way, how can I be having an affair with Promise, for what?
Mirabel: **silence**
Me: Could it be for $ex of which you and I agreed to abstain from because we know it’s not right for the unmarried? Or is it for love? Why then will I be getting married to you? It’s not ma-king any s-en-se can’t you see?
Mirabel: Don’t even imply that I’m insinuating nons-en-se when I the prove in my hand
Me: What prove? How can that diary be a prove that I’m cheating on you? It’s someone’s privacy for goodness sake. It could be her thought or something that she wouldn’t want anyone to pry and it could be very embarras-sing to her if she finds out about this
Mirabel: Embarras-sing? She should be ashamed of herself for professing such ru-bbish for you
Me: Mirabel what’s going on with you? I mean… this is not you, why the sudden temper?
(We heard Promise’ voice from the living room asking where is everyone)
Mirabel: She’s here **walking out of the room**
Me: Where are you going to? Mirabel don’t… (She slammed the door behind her)
Chai! What’s all this for goodness sake? Why is Mirabel changing all of a sudden? This is nothing but the hand work of the devil, the destroyer. Just when everything was going well, now Mirabel of all people is the one causing headache and nagging around on everything….. God have Mercy. I dunno why Promise could be so careless to forget something like that in the kitchen. I’m alre-ady losing the trusts Mirabel have for me, I don’t think she’ll be comfortable with me again, she’ll be suspecting my every move. So this how innocent people get accused wrongly? I really hope that we push throu-gh with the wedding and pursue our dreams instead of arguing and fighting unnecessarily with words.
Just then I ran after Mirabel to the living room where she’s alre-ady confronting Promise.
Mirabel: Promise what is all this you wrote in this your diary?
Promise: Why are you in possession of my diary?
Mirabel: You haven’t answered my question, what is the meaning of this love confession for
Victor who you know is my fiancé
Promise: Mirabel that diary contains my personal and pri-vate life with my thoughts which I don’t intend to share with anyb©dy
Mirabel: Oh really?
Me: Mirabel plea-se you have to st©p this, she has no evil intention towards our relationsh!p
Mirabel: Of course! The saint who is in love with my man will never have any evil intentions
Mirabel just start to annoy me for the first time since we started our relationsh!p, this is not the Mirabel that I know, what has happened to her? Or is this her true colours? Definitely not! She’s been humble from the start, she’s shown me nothing but love, she’s always been there for me, she’s always re-ady to do anything for me, she’s re-ady to submit to me. This is all Fred’s fault! He was the one that started all these perils. I regretted hooking him up with Promise, he brou-ght nothing but trouble which is now affecting my relationsh!pwith Mirabel.
Promise: **tears soaking in her eyes**
Me: Mirabel…
Mirabel: You know what? I’m st©pping the wedding
Me: No Mirabel, you can’t do that plea-se…
Mirabel: Yes I can and I will!
She said that then furiously rushed to the room. Then I started perceiving something smelling, the food is burning in the kitchen!! Someb©dy should just wake me up from this nightmare!!!
The President Daughter
Season 2 Episode 54
Dedicating this episode to all my re-aders, appreciating your likes and comments.
I quic-kly dashed to the kitchen and turned off the g@s cooker, from there to the room where I met Mirabel picking her stuffs.
Me: Mirabel what are you doing?
Mirabel: **picking her stuffs ignoring me**
I went to her and st©pped her from taking her things…
Mirabel: Let me go
Me: Look… I know how you feel, believe me… but you’re taking this thing too far, trust me I have absolute nothing to do with her
Mirabel: Can you say the same for her? She confessed her undying love for you in that diary, all this while I saw both of you as just friends, not knowing something like this has been going on
Me: Nothing has been going on, why can’t you believe me? You’re the only woman I love and who I want to spend the rest of my life with… plea-se don’t st©p the wedding I beg you
Mirabel: The wedding can only push throu-gh on one condition
Me: Which is?
Mirabel: Promise has to leave
Me: What?
Mirabel: Yes! Let her go away from our lives and forget about the love she claim to have for you
Me: Mirabel…
Mirabel: That’s the only way, it’s either she leaves or I leave…
Me: It doesn’t have to be like this
Mirabel: Is she leaving or not?!
Me: **Speechless**
Mirabel: I’ll take that as a yes **walks out of the room**
I watched her stormed out of the room while I sat down on the be-d hitting my head so ha-rd . What’s going on? How did it come to this?? What can I do???
I can’t turn my back on Promise and I can’t let Mirabel leave… what a dilemma.
Before I knew what was happening, Mirabel had Promise leave the house and I couldn’t do anything because I want to save my relationsh!pwith Mirabel. I stood and watched Promise leaving the house in tears; she was looking at me but I couldn’t do or say anything till she left. Mirabel warned that Promise must not attend her wedding.
When Nancy arrived and I told her what happened earlier while we both sat at the veranda, she got so surprised and shocked for how things turned out in such a little time; she wasn’t cool with Mirabel’s action though.
Nancy: So I’ll be living here alone or what’s going to happen?
Me: Well… you can bring a friend to stay with you
Nancy: Promise is much better to live with
Me: But you can’t live with her anymore, you know what happened
Nancy: Where will she go to now? I don’t think she has any place to stay in Abuja
Me: I really dunno what got into Mirabel to go to that extent
Nancy: Let’s ask Vincent to talk to her
Me: No, he can’t know about this
Nancy: Why?
Me: I don’t want to raise any issue, if letting Promise go will make our relationsh!pwork without any squabble, then I have no option.
Nancy: s£nior bro that’s not cool, you can’t possibly let Promise go like that na, she’s a good person
Me: Nancy you don’t un-derstand, you think it’s easy for me? I just want my relationsh!pto go back to how it used to be and even better when we get married
Nancy: Is there no other way this can go without anyone getting hurt? What do you think Promise will be feeling right now?
Me: I’m just so confused right now, I dunno what to do
Nancy: plea-se do something about Promise; she must be very hurt about this
Me: I’ll talk to her
Nancy: Ermmm…. Do you like have any uhmmm… feelings for her?
Me: Nancy, st©p that
Nancy: Sorry… just being curious
Me: It’s okay…
Nancy: Lemme go and prepare something since you guys couldn’t eat this afternoon
Me: Seriously, that food I expected to eat comfortably just got burnt
Nancy: I dunno you’ll still be hungry after everything that happened today
Me: Are you trying to mock me?
Nancy: Ah! Noooo…
She went back into the house while I remained outside cogitating and worried. Talking about having feelings for Promise, I think I truly have something hidden de-ep in my heart for her.
**TWO YEARS – FOUR MONTHS LATER**
A lot has happen…
The President won the election victoriously and remained in office; He appointed my father minister of finance and my mother kept rolling with the first lady.
I got my result and I graduated with second clas-s upper; I couldn’t get first clas-s because of many distractions that took place then and the running of my website. It was Nancy that graduated with first clas-s… because she wasn’t distracted na.
Mirabel and I got married then travelled to the U.S as we planned. We learnt everything we nee-ded to learn in order to build the Vames Empire and it all went well. I started my company with Mirabel by my side, with Ike’s p@rtnersh!pand his support technically and financially, and investors that invested in my Company. I got business connections worldwi-de, but I’m yet to achieve to my dream, which is building a very big business empire… although I’m getting there, it’s all about time.
Nancy and Vincent are yet to get married, they’ve been fighting for their love because… there have been some kind of disagreement about their relationsh!pfrom some family members due to the fact that Mirabel and I are alre-ady married.
I have a Daughter with Mirabel, I named her Vanessa, and now Mirabel is heavily pregnant carrying my second child. Our plan was to rush our children so she can join me in running the Empire while the children are alre-ady growing up.
I lost contact with Promise immediately she left the house that day; I tried to call her two days after she left when I went back to our Family house, I couldn’t find her number in my phone, and all the text messages and WhatsApp conversation we had were all gone. I knew Mirabel did it because she alone knows my phone pas-sword as p@rt of our agreement not to hide anything from each other, so she has access to my phone and I also have access to hers. After the discovery, I immediately called Nancy to give Promise’ number of which she did, but the number didn’t go throu-gh till today.
I planned on visiting Nigeria only when my office building there would be completed and re-ady for operations, so now I have about two months to return back to Nigeria, that’s the time my contractor as-sured me of completing everything, and it’s the same time Mirabel is expected to deliver our baby.
**********
I c@m£ back to my house after I’ve been away for five days on a business trip; I so much missed my wife and my daughter. I stepped into the house, the next thing I saw was my wife falling down from the stairs. I immediately rushed to get her but she didn’t respond; I had to rush her to the hospital.
The Doctor said that she’s in a critical condition; the fall affected the pregnancy so bad that she will have to un-dergo a premature delivery, and she has lost so much blood. So… she’d nee-d a blood transfusion. The worst thing was that, her blood group is very rare.
