The Girl He Never Noticed ๐งก
โWill you attend the occasion? Ife please don’t say noโ Ngozi pestered.
โwhat if my stepmother finds out,I don’t want trouble anymore.Even the one I put myself in,have not fully recoveredโ I said.
โnope they won’t find out you will change your identity thereโ she said.
โhmmm changing my identity is a thing I can’t do,I can not pretend to be another personโ I said.She twisted my ear playfully as we ran.
โthis is the second time am asking you for something,the first time I begged you to sing you did not now you’re shutting me out again,is that how good friends do?โ, she asked with a pained expression.
โI’m sorryโฆ please share in my pains tooโ I said.She smiled and held my hand as we ran.
We already approached her house, mine is still far a little bit..
I left her hand.โbye Ngoziโ I said.
โshare my dinner with me,my imstict just told me the devil might not give you food tonightโ she said.
I laughed and followed her in.The house was quiet,no one was in.
โwhere’s your mama?โ, I asked.
โshe went to Ofor market to get more stocksโ she replied,I remembered her step mom is a trader.
I wish I have this type of step mother.
โthanks for the meal.Finally so I would eat meat in my life againโ I said as I lick my fingers.The bitterleaf soup is the most tasty soup have ever tested this month.
I smiled as I drank water fully.
My eyes landed on her laps,she already brought out three different colorful wrappers.So admirable and beautiful,the waist chain, anklets and bangles are super hot.waoow
โso which one are you choosing?โ,
she asked.I hastily wash my hand.
when last did my father bought me beautiful wrappersโฆ Olamma usually selects the best.
โanyone you give me,my heart will gladly acceptโ I said,happily.
โyou’re fair,am darkโฆred will go for you while yellow will go for meโ she said as she shared the wrappers.
I perceived the scent and hugged the wrappers.
โNgozi,nobody will come in between usโ I said with a fair heart.
โhmmm for now, keep the wrappers. What if onome sees it with me,she’s really wickedโ I said.
โchai na true talk biko,abeg bring am(that’s true,bring it let me keep it)โ Ngozi said.
I gave it to her and stood up,hurriedly. I rush to the door of her hutโฆ.she followed me out.
โIfe do not forget.It’s evening oooo.I will wait for you at the lovers spot where we will get dressed and all thatโ she saidโฆ.
โbye bestโ I replied and ran out.
I was almost home,I thanked my stars no one is outside our building. I drew nearer while walking on my toes.No one caught me,I successfully ran to the backyard.I almost opened the back door until my eyes caught a moment.
It was Olamma, my step sister and Arinze the village drunkard.They were looking into each other eyes romantically,their faces suddenly came closer.Arinze lips almost pressed on olamma’s succulent lips but she smartly press her finger against his lips, denying him access.
She rolled her eyeballs as she pressed her other hand on his bare chest,desires were already clouding in Arinze‘s eyes as he brush his hand absent mindedly on her waist..
Olamma rolled her eyeballs in a more nasty way and quickly removed his hand.
โwhat’s all this?โ, she said and wanted to look around,I quickly snuck back into my hideoutโฆ
โArinze stop, this is not our agreement?โ, olamma said as she frees herself from Arinze grip.
โAre you denying me access for real?โ, Arinze asked.
โsend me the silver coin that I asked forโ, she said rudely.
Arinze blinked his eyeballs,I could see the sweetness in his eyes..
He is handsome too with a shiny caramel color.
โokay but can I just hug?โ, he asked.
โNo, when you finish paymentโ olamma said, they disengage.
So this us how she usually gets money from themโฆ
I shrugged and went in.
A heavy knock landed on my head,it was onome my step mother.
โwhere are you coming from?โ,
โyou stupidly committed a crimeโฆwhy are you fond of embarrassing my husband!โฆ.
โGo and sleep outside todayโ she saidโฆI went on my kneels.
โMama bikonu (please) I might get rapedโ I said almost in tears.
โdo you have any usefulness before, had any male ever ask you outโฆugly idiotโ she said and brought out a pestle to hit me,I ran outsideโฆ
I better go back to Ngozi for the night.
She opened the door and allowed me in,she even allow me share her wooden bed,she is so nice.
โsorryโ she said and hugged me.
โfor what?โ, I asked.
โeverything you’re going through. Just BELIEVE you will scale through. I will share in your sweeping punishment tomorrow at the palaceโ
she said.. I smiled as i remembered the song i always see myself singing in my dream.
that song…
๐ถ Believe in all that can be
๐ถ A miracle starts if you dream
๐ถ Believe and sing from your heart
๐ถ Ife believe,believe Ife you will see! I slept. Next day.
THE GOLDEN PALACEโฆ
๐งก KING’S POV ๐งก
โYour highness don’t you think it is time to start testing our two sons. By now we ought to have known who will make a good kingโ my dearest wife said.
โmy dear wife,I know what to doโ
I replied.Afterwards, I signalled a guard.He bowed as he squat beside where i sat on the golden built throne.
The guard nodded and left.
Not quiet long,the princes matched inโฆI smiled as i waved my staff.
I watched my sons with so much enthusiasm even though i sometimes find it difficult to say who is who.I always differentiate them with their charactersโฆโฆ
And besides they left the village when they where 15years old for abroad where they learned.
โhere we are fatherโ Lotanna said in a very soft whisper as he sits on the little gold throne beside the queen.
Jidenna didn’t utter a word as he sat close to me.
๐บ The lion himself
๐บ The war
๐บ The Battle!
๐บ The fight!
๐บ The liquid metal!
๐บ The indaboski,pahose!
๐บ Who dares you,who goes you!
the queen started praising the two handsome princes.
Lotanna smiled as the queen touch the royal pendant in his neck.
His smile alone looks like heaven his opened to rain.But he doesn’t even know the meaning of those praises, he can’t even speak the language fluently anymore.
โwhy exactly did you call for us?โ,
Jidenna asked.His voice usually carry so much authority.
โmy sons,it’s all because of a case.
Okoro and Azuka. Okoro is popularly known as the owner of the widest land after I,the kingโฆ
Okoro and Azuka had serious fights, during the fight azuka threatened okoro he would get back at him..the next day okoro beloved wife died during child laborโฆOkoro then reported that Azuka killed his wifeโ
Sons if you were the king,what will be your judgment????
Lotanna let me hear your point of viewโ I said.
Lotanna smiled out dimples..
โmay you live long fatherโ he said.he was actually speaking in English.
โif I were the king,I will both send them back homeโ Lotanna said, Jidenna frowned.
Lotanna took his lips in as he look directly into the queens eyesโฆhe so much loves his mother.
โFirstly,what will Azuka gain from killing okoro’s wife and unborn child?
secondly,threat is always normal in every fightโฆ.
thirdly,death during child birth is common too..
If i were the king,I will send them back home and look into the matter properly before any decisionโ lotanna said.
โtaaaaaaaaaarh(nooo)
โwhat nonsense are you saying?โฆ
I said it,you can never be the king after papaโฆ..if I become the king and such matter come up,I will give orders for Azuka to be killed,his dead body would be thrown into the evil forest alsoโ Jidenna cuts in.
.โwho is dragging the throne with you,did I ever tell you am interestedโฆ.gosh I can’t wait to go back to Australia! this place is weirdโ
Lotanna said in English.
โAnd who wants to use you for the kingโ jidenna said.
Lotanna already kept quiet but Jidennna was still talking.
โsons, it is okay you can goโฆ.I only want to hear what you think of the caseโ I saidโฆJidenna stood up..
Lotanna also stood up.
โPapa(father) i leave,should I?โ, he asked.I nodded..
He bowed and went out to catch up with Jidenna who was already at the door.
Adeife! Adeife!
I rushed to the palace as soon as the cock crow.Ngozi also followed me and shared in my sweeping punishmentโฆI was hoping I would see the prince,the one whom I actually gave a cut.I want to tell him sorry and give him the ointment I made.Too bad I didn’t see him.
Ngozi and I swept the whole place,
we were instructed to do other things before leaving.
โyou’re done with your punishment.. I advise you to be careful in the futureโ the guard said,Ngozi and I dismissed.
We left.
โIfe don’t forget where we are .meeting for the party,don’t keep me waitingโฆ.remember to leave the party before one hourโ she said..
I nodded and clapped my hands.
she branched her houseโฆ
I retired home tiredly and met onome buying beads from a bead seller.
Just so adorableโฆ
โI want my daughter to look best best best if possible I want her waist to be adorned with the most beautiful waist bead.She is princess Akuna’s birthday,she should look bestโ
onome said to the bead seller and paid for what she bought.
She sighted meโฆ

I was done fetching it…

โnothingโ I replied and went to her friend house,I did a her chores..
Hunger you’re the one meant to kill me,kindly kill me now! I said in tears as I did the chores.
I was not done until evening.That was when her friend released me.
When I got home, I met Olamma fully dressed for the partyโฆgosh,she’s really pretty with those beads on her hairโฆ.aaaawww..
โYour papa said the water you fetched was dirty.He poured it away and said you should fetch another oneโ olamma said with pride..
