The King rose from his throne angrily.
“Who’s the man that has the guts to get
my daughter detained?” He asked
shouting.
‘Get the car ready, I want to get one or
two things, I’ll be with you now. The man
will face the music!’ The king exclaimed
and walked into his room angrily.
••••
They got to the police quatres. They met
different parents their pleading for their
children. Everyone was silent on seeing
the King and the Queen there. “Your
Majesty” they addressed.
‘And who is the head of this place, I want
him to come out and see me.’ The King
shouted.
‘Alright you highness.’ A sergeant at the
bar stammered out and rushed to call
the D.P.O. The king and the D.P.O
walked to the car while the king was
talking to him angrily and commanded
that his daughter and her friends to be
released. Investigation isn’t done that
way!
The princess and her friends were
released to the King immediately and
taken home. The policemen continued
their secret investigations.
…
The Doctor and the psychologist were
invited but the psychologist brought
along a woman that could help them
predict things from Tony who’s named
Winnie. The woman is into writing and
reading of stories. She had gained a lot
from their and good at predicting and as
well guessing. They all got to Tony’s
house while they went to the balcony
upstairs to start their discussions.
The doctor started everything by asking
him how much and well he forgets things
since the incidence. Finally the job was
handed over to Miss Winnie to complete.
“The name of that your friend is?” She
asked.
‘Raymond.’ He replied.
‘What are the things you do together?’
“I don’t know?” He replied.
‘Hmmn.. You can eat, play, hunt, since
its in a Kingdom. You can farm, go to
the stream. There, you can meet different
girls sent to go and fetch……..’
“Wait!” He uttered suddenly.
He remembered the day he and Raymond
went to the stream and met two girls. He
couldn’t remember their names but was
still thinking on it. “That’s true, we go to
the stream to look at girls.”
They all laughed. ‘So which girl exactly
have made friend with?’
‘Em..’ He remembered the day at the
supermarket when he heard Damilola.
“Damilola!” He voiced.
‘That Damilola, she should have friends
you know with her, and maybe her scent,
and other things.’ Winnie said.
‘I can’t recollect.’ He replied.
‘Do you still remember the name of your
kingdom?’
“Yes.. Rily.” He quickly replied.
Winnie brought out her laptop and typed
rily to search. There was a map that was
brought out that shows how they could
get there from exactly where they were to
that place. ‘I guess once you get here,
you’ll be able to remember some things.
‘No.. I was told by Mr Akinola that I was
thrown at the road. I can’t possibly go
their wh..’ “Wait!” He uttered again.
‘Haa.. Damilola! She should be the one.
I’m remembering..’
‘Good. Be fast at that!’ Doctor uttered.
‘Raymond was in a relationship with a
lady, Funke and that lady has a friend,
Gloria. Both overheard when Damilola
told me she was pregnant.
‘Preg what!’ Tomi barged in.
‘Preg what?’ Tomi barged in.
“Pregnant.” Tony answered frankly and
turned his head towards where she was.
‘You’ve never told me this!’ She
exclaimed.
“And I’ve never remembered to.. Just
remembering.
“Come and have a seat here madam. Its
nothing.” Winnie called her.
She sat down beside the psychologist
staring at Winnie and Tony.
“So continue with what you’re saying,
sir.” Winnie addressed.
‘….Yes, I’m sure she didn’t know and even
doesn’t know I’m still alive. It’ll be like a
great surprise to meet me hale and
hearty. As for Funke and Gloria, they
must be dead by now because I know the
Queen very well.’ He concluded.
“This is awesome.” The psychologist said
and shook his head.
“We’ll be going for now and get back to
you later, against what we’ll do.” Winnie
said and stood up.

Deaola’s Father was invited to the palace
by the King to sort out things. The King
was also in support of the investigation
but his daughter was with him
throughout. Darasimi had been gotten
also for further investigation to know
why the hired assassins were looking for
her.
The King provided adequate support
concerning the investigation of the death
of Deola. Darasimi was interrogated by
the policemen on who she was
suspecting concerning the issue of the
acid attack. She couldn’t mention anyone
as she wasn’t suspecting anyone.
It came to a stage the whole
investigation turned out to be nothing.
Hon. Olukayode himself later removed
his hands from the case and the school
started their work back.
Rachael wasn’t pleased about all that
happened. She hated Darasimi like
ending her life anytime she sees her. She
brought up the idea between her friends
again that Darasimi should be kidnapped
and killed so that they’d have their way.
They invited their normal hired- killers to
get Darasimi kidnapped. They scheduled
their job to be Wednesday morning, on
her way to the lecture hall.
**********
It was Monday morning, Darasimi was
off to the lecture hall, dressed in a pencil
jeans and fitted blouse. She had her
handbag on her and was looking
beautiful. Everywhere was quiet and
people were scanty. The guys got down
from the car and drugged her into the
car and ran off.
….
They got her to an uncompleted building
as wished and tied her with a rope
against a pillar at the second floor. They
got a place that was very quiet and no
one will ever believe some one was there.
The princess and her friends were already
gathered there also and rounded her up,
staring at her angrily. The boss of the
hired assassins already stood at Dara’s
from laughing wickedly, Darasimi’s vision
was blurred then and couldn’t see
properly.
A GUNSHOT WAS HEARD..
