Chapter 10

Two weeks later everything had seemed to be going so perfect it was the triplets and Mthaniya's birthday in a week

they had planned on having a combined party but the royals will be flying home thereafter to celebrate their birthday at home the following day.

Mthaniya had just gotten out of church

Fridays were usually short so she had more time on her hands on that day than attending lectures.

Brzzzz!!!

Her phone vibrated in her pocket she took it out.

'Join us usual spot we all here having supper'

She smiled and requested for an Uber.

She arrived the place was packed to capacity she couldn't even see her friends finally she spotted them.

Of cause due to Naledi and Nosa's loud laughter. She walked up to their table.

Niya: " hello," she said with a smile.

The table was full some tables were put together to accommodate the number of people she could not recognize some of them but she knew the beautiful skinny girl next to Mqhele was the famous Amahle

she did a few modeling shoots and she was the mayor's daughter.

Amandla gave up his chair for her.

Mqhele called a waiter asking for another chair.

One was brought.

Mqhele: " Mthaniya you sit here he said pointing at the chair"

she looked at Mqhele and then the empty chair and wondered what was wrong with the one she was seated on why can't Amandla have the empty chair.

Niya: " Amandla you can sit down thanks for the chair"

Amandla looked at his brother he was pissed off by the stunt he just pulled

throughout dinner Mqhele was looking at Mthaniya the more he thought about her the more connected he felt to her and soon he could hear his heartbeat he didn't even need to touch her anymore being close to her had that effect on him.

He smiled looking at her and Amandla saw that Amihle who was looking at Amandla wondered what was wrong and looked at the person next to her.

She notched him with her elbow.

Amihle: " that's your brother's girlfriend you know" she whispered to him.

Mqhele cleared his throat. Everyone knew how Amandla felt about Niya but Mqhele.

He has never paid attention much to anyone else when Niya was around his Motlalepula that's what he called her all these years.

He never forgot the day he danced with the kindest child ever one who spoke so boldly towards him and never even bothered to bow and acknowledge him as a prince to her he was just a kid who stole sweets she was not scared of him but instead was happy to be with him weird eyes and all.

Today he wears contact lenses he can't stand the stares from people.

Unfortunately, his Motlalepula does not seem to remember him.

He looked at his glass and gobbled it all down.

He never even knew his brother was dating anyone let alone the girl who had, had such an effect on him for so many years.

He had wished to meet her again but she never returned to the hospital it couldn't have been the figment of his imagination he would hear his parents talk about her.

A need for a genuine friendship was what he longed for.

And after all these years in another province here they are seated together having dinner across from each other.

His wish had finally been answered when he saw her a few months back.

Thanks to his outgoing and forward sister she is here because they are friends.

Amihle notched him again. Bringing him back to the present.

She was now pissed. How could he just ignore her and look at plain Betty here?

Fine, she was beautiful but she was the goal of every man's fantasy.

Amihle: " so what's your name again," she said looking at niya.

Niya: " Mthaniya but everyone calls me niya"

Khaya: " such a beautiful name for such a beautiful princess, I am Khaya" he stretched out his hand across the table niya looked at it embarrassed.

Amihle was glad to have her occupied by someone else but not 'her man'.

But she still couldn't stop but wonder what was it with this girl that just commanded man's attention.

Niya looked at Mqhele who was pissed off.

This guy was making advances toward her in front of everyone or maybe she was just imagining it.

With a smile
She was about to stretch out her hand when Mqhele hit Khaya's hand.

Amandla was grateful but now was sure he and his brother were fighting for the same girl's affection.

He stood no chance against his brother he saw the connection they both have towards each other in the way she looked at his brother before stretching out her hand as if looking for permission.

He liked this girl but it was obvious friendship was all she could give to him.

Nothing more.

He looked at his brother who was staring at Niya with the most intense look, probably because she was about to shake the guy's hand he chuckles softly.

He can't help but find his brother's possessiveness funny.

Niya breaks the staring contest and asks to be excused.

Before she reaches the door someone grabs her hand turning her around.

Their lips collide and they kiss his lips taste like nicotine and beer but she finds the taste so nice on his cold tongue.

He breaks the kiss and walks away into the male's toilet leaving her stunned.

'What just happened.'

She smiles touching her lips as she walks into the lady's restroom.
