Story: The President

Episode 17

I heard someone from outside knocking on my door, I recognize the voice.

Titus: Where that ba$tard?!


They didn’t wait for me to tell to come in or not, they just barged in.

Titus: Guy put game for person jare, see your stu… (seeing Mirabel) babe even dey here no wonder, babe howfa… (opened my fridge and took two yoghurts out) Guy, yoghurt no dey finish for your fridge oh…

I was just looking at the ba$tard, he shared my yoghurts with the other ba$tard that accepted it without hesitation. A tear almost dropped from my eyes, these guys aint good at all. They didn’t respect me or the fact I’m with someone. Mirabel’s presence couldn’t make say or do anything, I just kept my coolness. All this while,,, Mirabel was looking surprised if not shocked, seeing what my so-called guys were doing.

They switched on my light then switched off the cool music that was playing just to play P.S (Video game). After fixing it, Titus turned to me…

Titus: Guy U go play?

I didn’t say nothing, I only shook my head with that gesture that means no.

Titus: Wait o…. Na Mirabel be this?

Mirabel: Hi

Titus: Hiii… how duin? (The idiot started using phonetics)

Mirabel: I’m fine… how do u do?

Titus: Woah… pretty name for ah gorgeous breath taking lady (kissed her hand)

Me: Excuse me?

Mirabel: Forget everything Ok? I’m outta here. **Opening her car**

She ignored me, I saw tears dripping from her eyes. She got in then zoomed off leaving me.

With rage and anger, I got in to my room.
