Lagos, Nigeria (Cookie) "Fabian! Fabian!" Amanda's scream vibrated through the walls of the house. Cookie could hear the voice getting closer and coming towards the living room, where she was busy playing video game. Fabian was with her but he was typing away on his phone, ignoring the fact that Amanda was shouting his name. Amanda entered the living room. She walked past Cookie and towards Fabian but not without hissing and snapping her eyes at her.Cookie just sighed and continued with playing her video game. "Fabian, I want to ask you something and I demand for your attention," Amanda said rudely. Cookie paused her game because it was hard for her to focus on it. The noise Amanda was making was distracting and she also wanted to watch the little drama that was about to take place. She just couldn't mind her business even she wanted to. Fabian took a quick glance at his girlfriend and then back to his phone like he wasn't the one being spoken to. "Fabby, I'm I not talking to
Lagos, Nigeria (Cookie.)"Good afternoon her majesty," they all greeted as they sat down at the dinning table to have lunch with Queen Beatrice Eze, who arrived some hours ago with her eldest son, Prince Nonso Eze."Afternoon every one," Queen Beatrice greeted back with a light voice. "The king could not make it here because he had some meetings to attend to with the village council, but he sends his regards to everyone, especially to his son in-law to be Fabby." she informed.Fabian smiled like he just won a trophy.Cookie like Amanda's family. She finds them welcoming and nice but when it comes to Amanda, it was a different story all together. For the past few days she'd lived here, she had been able to avoid her. Cookie always stays indoors, reading her books just so she could stay away from Amanda and her unnecessary drama."Prince Fabby, how are you?" Queen Beatrice asked him. She preferred calling Fabian a prince because he was a soon to be prince once he gets married to her daug
Lagos, Nigeria (Fabian)Amanda walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her chest and her head. She walked over to her nightstand, where her body moisturizer was and started rubbing it on her skin. She behaved as if Fabian wasn't lying on their bed while typing on his phone. He also pretended not to see her.She had broke his phone's screen. Now, it gave him an hard time to type with it but he only had to manage it. He was chatting with Deardre.
Lagos, Nigeria (Cookie)So many things happened in the past few months. There were things Cookie just wanted to forget because everything had to do with Princess Amanda. She couldn't take her dramas and troubles so she had to agree in doing whatever Amanda asked her to do so she'd avoid causing trouble.A day hasn't passed without Amanda causing a fuss out of every little thing. When someone tries to talk to her about her unacceptable behaviour, she will flare up and react in an unspoken manner. She'd always let her anger control her to the extent it was frustrating Fabian so much.Poordab!Cookie thought. She knew how Fabian was trying
Lagos, Nigeria (Cookie)"Amanda! Amanda! Amanda!" Fabian shouted all his way to her.She was sitting with her one out of her numerous rich friends. They were drinking and having a conversation when Fabian's scream interrupted them."What is it honey? Why shouting my name like that? Do you want to fall down the roof of this mansion?" Amanda asked when Fabian and Cookie walked closer."How many times have I told you that Cookie's not a maid?" Fabian asked instead.Amanda looked at him briefly and then behaved like no one had spoken to her. She continu
Lagos, Nigeria (Amanda)"What are you saying, my daughter? That Fabian left you?" Queen Beatrice kept asking, "How can he leave you a month before your wedding? This is annoying."The king remained quiet. He had lots of things running through his mind. He had told his village council about his daughter's upcoming marriage and was disappointed to hear about their breakup. How was he going to break this disheartening news to them now? Another of his concern was placed on his daughter. He knew Amanda was young for marriage but if she continued with her bad attitude, over protectiveness and selfishness, he didn't think she was going to get a date anytime soon. Thirdly, his first son Nonso had refused to get into any form of entanglement ever since he came back from England. King Eze was getting old and he wanted an heir apparent to the throne before he kicked the bucket. Also, he wanted to see his grandkids before doing so. The customs and traditions of his village were that the King's
Lagos, Nigeria (Cookie)"Have you packed your bags yet?"Charity, Uncle Kayode's daughter walked into Cookie's small comfortable room. The one She'd occupied with Gloria since they moved into Uncle Kayode's house."Yes...?" it came out as a question rather than an answer because Cookie wasn't so sure of her self. She didn't know if she was ready to go about life in another country.Charity took a look at Cookie's polythene bag that was sitting on her small bed. She furrowed her brow in confusion."Come on, don't tell me you are only taking those—"
A flight to England. (Cookie)On her flight, she listened carefully to the blonde lady on prim blue and red flight attendant uniform as she informs everyone on what we should do in case there is an emergency. For a first time ever being in a plane, Cookie was afraid of a plane crash and also scared of heights."Are you alright?" Someone sitting at her back tapped her but she gnored the person, not knowing what her answer should be.Am I alright? Am I?.. Hell no, I am not.She told herself.Although, a part of her was happy that she'd entered a plane for the first time since she was born while anot
