My Priority

EPISODE THREE

Michael's POV

"Hey little princess..waky...waky" I wisphered to jadhiel's ear who was still sleeping and she flinched her eyes open immediately.

" Oh it's morning already... Good morning daddy...Have you forgotten your daily routine" Jadhiel said pouting and I gasped slightly , almost forgot .

I kissed her slightly on her forehead and she smiled which melted my heart, she is all I have got, I love her so much.

"Hope you slept well"

" Yes dad...Thank God no school today" she yelled happily and I chuckled

" You're such a Lazy brat " I said jokingly pinching her nose and she retaliated pinching me back.

" Have you forgotten.....Today is children's day and you trust daddy...He gonna make today more lively and interesting" I announced and she jumped out of the bed to the table and them to the floor laughing so hard .

" Am so happy....You see..Am an upcoming kung fu mistress" she said and somersaulted.

" Oh my God! You will get yourself injured" I yelled and she laughed.

" I can't.... Dad....You see something dad...Catch me if you can " she said running around and I caught her and took her to the bathroom and placed her in the bath tub.

" Now can you keep your mouth sealed" I ordered and placed her hands on her lips.

I had a clean bath for her and brushed her small sets of white teeth and then tied her pink Barbie towel.

" Dad...Where are we going visit first" she asked as I applied body lotion to her body.

'' the beauty shopping complex" I stated and silence fell in between us till I was done dressing her. She looks so beautiful, my source of happiness........

I took her downstairs and met Natalie setting breakfast in the dining.

" Wow...You look pretty..Damsel" Natalie commented as jadhiel hugged.

" Good morning aunty Natalie, guess what, am a kung fu mistress..Ask dad"

" Oh my God that's good...Happy children's day...I guess you both are going out " Natalie asked placing Jadhiel on her laps to feed her breakfast.

" Oh yes, so sad you aren't coming with us..You'll miss a lot and you know the funny part, we are not going to bring any goodie for you" I said and winked at her.

" You must be joking,swears I won't open the door for you and Jadhiel" she said and I laughed so hard.

" There are many confortable and adoring hotels" I said and smirked.

Soon we were done eating and I carried Jadhiel and placed her in my second car, a black G wagon.

" Be careful while driving and take care of yourself" Natalie warned and pecked me before going in, she is just like my second mother.

I drove to the beauty shopping complex after answering so many questions from Jadhiel, just a talkative but she still looks cute while talking.

" Hey drama queen, we are here" I said to Jadhiel who was busy playing game on an I-pad.

" Oh, it's so beautiful" she gasped as she came down from the car.

It was the among the top10 best shopping complex in the country, so large and lavishly designed.

We got in as the heartwarming scent greeted us.

" Good day sir/ma, you are welcome to beauty shopping complex known for the best quality of clothes and accessories, please make yourself comfortable" the receptionist announced and I turned to know where that voice was coming from,it was from a very beautiful lady dressed so decently. I wowed at her " hey beautiful" I said and I put on my dark eyeglasses as I walked to her holding her firmly.

"Good day sir, please how may I help you" she asked politely and I smiled at her.

" You look beautiful" I commented and she smiled revealing her dimples.

" Thanks sir..I haven't heard that for some months now...Am so sorry sir.. Please how may I help" she asked as she placed her head down.

" Am Micheal by name and stop sir...I came here to get somethings for my daughter" I said smiling and Jadhiel scoffed.

" Now you remembered I was here"

" Is she not beautiful little princess" I asked Jadhiel and she hissed loudly.

" She isn't and I don't like her... Let's go get what we want.. C'mon dad" Jadhiel said and her gulped so hard.

" Hey miss...Sorry....May I know your name" I asked feeling nervous, like seriously, I have not talked to a lady like this for the past four years except my sis and that annoying secretary, for business reasons though.

" Am Dennis by name, you have a beautiful daughter" she commented and I smiled

"Tha..." Jadhiel cut me short immediately

"Daddddd........ Can't we just go check what we came for"

" Okay.. Dennis right, please take us to the children's section"

" Okay..This way.." she directed and we followed her closely.

Jadhiel was fascinated by what she saw, she kept picking all she likes as I followed behind stealing glances at Dennis who was also explaining things to Jadhiel about some products, she is just wonderfully made.

" Sir...Take a look at this...It isn't gonna fit her but she insists" Dennis explained referring to Jadhiel and I chuckled.

" Just let her make a choice...She is somehow stubborn" I explained and she smiled making me butterflies in my belly.

" Okay..Sir".

Jadhiel wants to use the whole day shopping, like seriously I was tired of standing,am not complaining about the price or whatever quantity she is buying , she can buy the whole complex If she wants, I will pay for it, that's to show how much I love her.

Oops..I just remembered Natalie, she is gonna Kill me if I don't get some thing for her, lols.

" Hey Jadhiel...Let's get something for aunty Natalie"I said and she sighed.

" I will continue after shopping for you bought things for her" Jadhiel said giggling.

" Hey Dennis, can you just get clothes of your size cause I have some one like you"

" Oh no problem" she said and she began picking different clothes and makes sure she asked if it was enough or she should stop.

It was almost getting to one hour and I sighed and turned only for me not to see Jadhiel, my heart thumped.

I looked around and caught no sight of her, I became scared, hope nothing has happened to her.

" Hey Dennis, did you see my little daughter" I asked as my heartbeat increased.

" No, she was beside you"

" Oh God" I said shaking visibly.

" Please calm down sir, no one can get lost here, we will surely find her, let's go" she said and began searching for her sections to sections but no sign of her.

I was already dieing inside of me and different imaginations began finding its way and I got scared the moee. Unusual cold sweats was dripping down my face.

" Calm down sir, we will find her, I assure you" Dennis said and squeezed my hands and smiled at me making me calm a bit.

" Oh here she comes" Dennis said and I turned to see Jadhiel running towards me and I hugged her passionately, my body is back to normal.

" Little princess, what happened, I was scared , I thought I won't see you again" I said caressing her cheeks as I squatted down to her height.

" I was scared too, I was lost but all thanks to one woman, dad I saw my twin , she looks exactly like me " Jadhiel explained and I was surprised.

" You don't mean it"

" Dad...Am serious, she was with her mum and her mum hugged me telling me she misses me , she directed me here and left in a twinkle of an eye with her daughter" Jadhiel explained and I was surprised.

Who could that lady be?

"Let's get going okay...." I said and she nodded , I paid for everything and bought some clothes for Dennis, she was so happy.

Soon we were home and Jadhiel couldn't keep her loose mouth explaining everything to Natalie about Dennis and also the strange woman and how she liked her immediately. Such a smart talkative.

*******

I picked my phone tempted to call her but dropped it again, honestly I can't sleep. She beclouded my mind , we exchanged business cards before I left the shopping complex . Oh am talking about Dennis, I looked beside me and found Jadhiel sleeping peacefully, my heart warmer.

I summoned courage and called Dennis and she picked and first ring....

Dennis: hello...Who is this online and how may I help you.

Me: it is me Micheal

Sure, I can't be able to sleep well, am not falling for her right but I understand myself anymore. "Gosh what's happening to me" I used my pillow to cover my Face.
