‘Will it be wise of me to go to the Palace to confront her? She’s wicked and a murderer, she can just kill me. Wait oh, what would I have done I got there?’ He asked himself thoughtfully.
He heard Darasimi calling his name from
the back. She had been running after
him. It might just be like a password to
death for her. She thought.
‘Don’t go, you’ll put me into trouble if
you should go, please save me from this.
Help me, you know how wicked she is.’
She addressed.
Daniel turned to the back and stared at
her. “Alright, I’ve been thinking about it
too. It won’t make sense to go and tell
her about this. She might even kill me
also. I just don’t want you to do me like
this, we can always behave we hate each
other so that people won’t go and tell her
about us. I really love you!” He uttered
and moved closer to her.
‘I do too, but what I passed through in
that forest she took me to, to warn me
was deadly. I even thought I would die
there, really afraid of my life oh.’ She
uttered.
‘Don’t worry dear, I’ll protect you. In every
aspect. During this holiday, I’ll monitor
her to know whatever she’s doing and
planning against you.’ He promised.
‘Dan, don’t worry about that. I don’t want
you to risk your life for me. Everyone in
this village knows how wicked and
heartless she is, please don’t.’ She
begged.
‘I will, I’ll just make sure I monitor my
movement to the core. I’m really afraid of
something happening to you.’ He drew
her to himself and hugged her.
…
The Princess and her friends were at the
usual venue of their gists and games.
Beatrice was laughing out loud
concerning what happened to Darasimi
when Ruth was explaining to them.
The Queen had assured her of not fearing
him, she has scared her with death and
she assured her she must have left Dan
as at the morning she was telling Ruth.
Ruth was so happy to hear this
she called all her friends to come and
play
with her so they would celebrate that
Daniel was now his.
They were doing that when Daniel came
out of the Palace. He knew the princess
and her friends were by the pool side and
could guess they were talking about
Darasimi. They all kept quiet on seeing
him come outside, he thought on what he
could do and called a guard beside the
entrance to the palace.
‘I’m going to my girlfriend’s place, when
the king wakes up, just tell him I went
out. Wanna go have nice time with her.’
He uttered in a loud voice, so that
princess and her friend would hear.
…
Olufunke was clearing the living room
when she discorvered the passport
photograph that fell down from Daniel on
the floor. “This is Tony!” She said
exclaiming and was afraid. “Where has
this girl found this passport, is she really
investigating?” She asked himself.
Darasimi rushed out and saw her mum
staring at the passport. “Mum, what
happened?” She asked.
The broom fell off Funke’s hand on
hearing Dara’s voice. “Em.. Nothing.
Where did you find this passport photo?”
She inquired.
PASSPORT? She asked as she moved
closer to see who was on it. “I don’t
know this man. Why?” She asked.
‘Em… Nothing.’ Funke replied smiling.
Darasimi shook her head angrily. “I knew
it, I knew that was what you’d say!” She
shouted and went inside.
