Billionaire's Daughter

1

With the ending of every session comes the results that would determine if we would move on to the next year or repeat. The results would be out in a few weeks time and I'm not really bothered because I know I did a good job.

As a rich child, rightfully I should be out enjoying myself and going on vacations but I wasn't going to do any of that this time around. I wanted to spend this holiday with my dad as he was in town for a while. Normally, by now I should be packing my bag to travel to one part of the world or the other to stay with my dad as he runs his business and majority of the time I don't see him at all for some days which makes the vacation wasted for me.

I laid on my bed with my phone on my hand as I go through social media watching my mates enjoy their lives the way they choose to. I watched pictures and videos of families going on vacation and doing stuffs together and all I could do was like the post and wish to live that kind of life someday.

At least I have my brothers with me to keep me company. Oh yeah, I don't. I'm all alone, in this big house, with no company except my puppies, oh shit I forgot to feed them. This life would have been amazing if it's given a few touches here and there, let's say a few friends, the freedom I so deserve. That's all I could ever wish for. Well, I don't think it can get any worse....

"Amanda!!, Amanda!!!!!", My dad's voice snaps me out of my thoughts. I quickly ran to his room to find out why he was calling me. I just hope these puppies didn't put me in any trouble this time around.
"Yes daddy, you called for me."
"Yes I did. Pack your bags, we are going to Lagos first thing tomorrow morning."
"We'll be living their permanently."
"Why the sudden change in event?"
"Your siblings live and school there don't they? So you'll be closer to them, that way I won't be worried of you being lonely", who knew he actually worries about me.
"Whatever you say dad"

I went to my room, brought out my boxes then went into my closet to start packing. Urghh, how am I going to pack all these clothes on time, how I wish I could just shrink my closet and take it with me. It would take me an eternity to finish.
I packed the clothes I wanted to take with me first then took the boxes to the truck. I selected a few other clothes and packed them. I'll leave the rest behind and probably instruct the house keepers to take some for her children then give out the rest. If I need any other thing I'll just buy new ones. Packing my shoes and other important things I quickly load up the truck then informed my dad that I was done.  

Getting into my room, I set the environment by connecting to my boom box and playing some lovely music from my playlist. I head to the bathroom to have a quick shower. Putting on some clothes, I stepped out of my room and into my dad's room to find out what he'll have for lunch but he's no where to be found. It's probably business as usual. Quickly make some noodles to eat as I watched a movie on my phone.

Opening my eyes, I realize I had fallen asleep while watching the movie. I quickly check the time and it's read 6:30pm. Looking around, the house was still empty which means dad had not come back yet. I got a text from the truck guy that our boxes had landed safely in Lagos and we're currently in our supposed new house waiting for our arrival. Walking outside I search for the gateman in charge of the gate.

"Mohammed! Mohammed!!"
"Madam, I dey come" I stood in front of the corridor waiting for him to come.
"Yes small madam. How you dey do?"
"I'm fine. Where is my father?"
"Ahh, small Madam, Oga never come back since afternoon oo. He talk say he dey go handle one business. No vex"
"Ahh. Since then? No problem, go back to your position"
"Ok, anything for the boys small madam?"
"What did you say?"
"Maa? You know na, any small something wey you go give me. You know say I no go see you again", I looked at him and laughed. Truly I'll miss his humour around. I pull out my phone and make a transfer to his account and he hailed me with praises.
"Thank you ma oo. God will bless you"
"And bless you, continue to be a good man"
I head back inside and continue with my movie.

It's passed nine and my dad was nowhere to be found. I was getting very worried, where exactly did this man go to that he didn't consider telling his daughter first before leaving. Deciding to call him I lick my phone from where it laid charging and failed his number.  After the third try he finally picked up.

*Beginning of phone call*
"Hello, daddy?"
"Ama how are you doing my darling"
"Daddy, where are you for God's sake. you left here since morning and haven't returned and you didn't even bother to as much as leave a message of where you are. It's so unfair"
"Sorry baby, I forgot to tell you, I had an important thing to take care of."
"Ok, how long before you reach here? let me know when I'll heat up something for you to eat"
"Ohh, unm. I'm not coming home today. I..."
"What!!!!!!, What do you mean by you are not coming home today" I said cutting him off
"I'm sorry, there was a lot of work to do down here, I lost track of time and I won't be able to make it home this night, but I promise I'll be home before you wake up sweetie"
"Are you being serious dad, you could have taken me with you, it's not fair"
"It's nothing you have to worry about sweetie, get some rest and tomorrow when I come we'll get moving, okay?"
"You're seriously going to leave me alone in this big house dad"
"I don't have a choice"
"Goodnight ama, I have to get back to work."
"Dad! Dad!! Hello?"
*End of phone call*

He just cut the call on me. I collapsed on my bed feeling stressed and all tensed up. I read a novel on my phone till I got sleepy then plugged in my phone and took a quick trip to Dreamland.

I woke up feeling restless, I checked the clock on my night stand to see the time, it was 2am. I got some water to drink from the fridge then headed back to my room. I laid on my bed and tried to get some shout eyes when I heard some weird noise coming from my window, I wondered what was making such noise. In a way, I was scared but I could bet that it was an animal noise for sure, I couldn't make out what the noise was. I decided to take a peep to find out what was making the noise.

I opened up my corridor to check what or where the noise was coming from, I was shocked at the view before my eyes. The curtain of my neighbors room was not closed which gave me a view to his room. Lo and behold I saw...
