(AMANDA’S TALE)

CHAPTER 11
“Before I open and close my eyes, get out of this palace and village never to return,” he said, letting go of her neck and running after Amanda. Mirabel gasped for air, trying to calm herself down. She smiled at nothing but an empty space.
“Oh! Poor Amanda,” she smirked.
MIRABEL’S POV
Ha! I love seeing the fool who thinks she is better than everyone in pain, though the words of the king hurt a little. But I don’t mind, as long as dear Amanda is in pain. I am done here; time to face my life. I went to Amanda’s house to pack my things and get ready for the city. I met Ujunwa lying down without a care in the world.
“Babes, the plan was successful, right? I am sure the king would have enjoyed and want to retain you as a wife,” she asked me while winking her eyes.
“Omo! The king wasn’t interested in me and knows we lied about everything we said about Amanda. He even warned us to get out of the village before he kills us,” I replied with an eye roll.
“Are you serious? Let’s get out of here then; our job here is done,” she said as she jumped and began to pack her things.
“I got to taste the king’s lips; it was so soft and tasted like strawberry. Oh! The feeling was heavenly, and guess what—Amanda saw me,” I said.
“Ha! Good for her. She thinks she is better than everyone else. She is going to be heartbroken, but I don’t care,” she smirked.
We were done packing our bags and bade Amanda’s parents goodbye. Good riddance, time to face our lives. We got to the city two hours later and went our separate ways. I can’t wait to see my baby boo; at least I have him to myself, and he won’t know of my village escapades. I am just going to give him the best night of his life and get him to marry me. I smiled at this sweet thought; I will provide all the love and care so he will marry me.
I got to my boyfriend’s apartment and opened the door but was shocked to the core with what I saw. Tears began to roll down; I could see my world begin to crumble before me. Is this what Amanda felt when she saw me with the king? Ah! This was just too much. I couldn’t stand the pain and blacked out.
“EMEKA, WHY!!”
THE HOSPITAL
“Doctor Michael, the chief doctor requests your presence in the meeting room,” Nurse Emily informed him. He stood up and walked down to the meeting room, wondering what could be the matter of urgency. He got to the room and met familiar faces, but one particular face stood out—Nurse Nancy. “What is she doing here?” he thought to himself.
“Doctor Michael, you are welcome; we called you here because it was brought to our notice that a nurse is seducing you, and you are the best surgeon in our hospital, so your well-being is our utmost priority. We called you to inform that the nurse has been dealt with,” the chief doctor said with a soft smile.
“Please, who is the nurse that was dealt with?” he asked, confused and wondering if such has ever happened.
“Oh! It is Nurse Amanda…”
“AMANDA! What have you done?” he asked angrily, standing up from where he sat, feeling shocked.
“We got a report with proof that said Amanda was seducing you,” he sighed as he brought out the pictures. Michael picked them up to look at it but got angrier upon seeing the picture of him and Amanda kissing.
“What is the meaning of this? Am I being monitored or what? Who made the report?” he asked, already getting frustrated. “Wait! What is the punishment you gave her?” he asked.
“Look, Michael, I don’t know what is going on, but we fired her,” the chief doctor said.
“WHAT! Without my consent, you fired her. Who made the damn report?” he groaned with so much anger.
“It was Nurse Nancy that made the report, and we…”
“And you what? You fired her without consulting me. Well, no problem. I have decided I will quit,” he said.
“WHAT!! Michael, you can’t do that!” shouted the chief doctor and Nancy.
“Look, it hasn’t gotten to that, Michael; I will call her back,” the chief doctor said, trying to convince him.
“There is no need; I stayed here because of her. Since you fired her, I will leave too. Good luck!” he said and walked out of the room.
“Michael! Michael! Please, you can’t do this. I love you; that’s why I did this. I thought she was the one blocking you from seeing me. It hasn’t gotten to the extent of you leaving,” Nancy said as she pursued him.
“Look, Nancy or whatever you are called, I never loved you and never will. Why? Because you are self-centered and desperate, and I hate people like that. I stayed in this hospital because of Amanda, and since you made her go, I will leave too. I already have my hospital; I was only here for her,” he said and turned to leave.
“No, Michael, I love you with all my heart. Can’t you see?” Nancy cried.
“No, I can’t see; all I see is a desperate fool, and you can’t be compared to Amanda at all. I pity you! You just dug your own grave,” he smirked and walked away, never looking back.
“NO!!!”
NANCY’S POV
Why can’t he see my love for him? Why is he hurting me like this after all I did to get him to notice me? Tears blurred my eyes as I watched him walk away. I stood there thinking he would come and wipe my tears and tell me it was all a joke, but he never came back. Why me? All I want is his love; why can’t he give it to me?
“Nurse Nancy, you are being called by the chief doctor,” Nurse Emily said from behind me. I quickly dried my tears and walked back to the meeting room. I met the chief doctor with an angry expression. I knew I screwed up but prayed for leniency because this is my only livelihood.
“NURSE NANCY, YOU ARE FIRED; GET YOUR STUFFS AND GET OUT!!”
“WHAT, NO!!!” I couldn’t stand the pain of two rejections in one day. I blacked out.
UNKNOWN POV
It is time to take over what is mine; after two decades, I am ready, thanks to that insolent brat.
