Turning Table

Part 145

Bonus Chapter: Waiting room in Netcare Hospital

****Narrative ****

Queen Sbahle breath out loud as she entered the waiting room and looked at her Husband who was lost in thought looking outside the window, he looked almost sad as she is
she walked slowly and wrapped her hands around him, hugging him from behind and placing her head on his back, they both breath out loud finding comfort in each other's arms, what's supposed to be a joyful day for the Mnguni Family, has brought so many unease feelings to the royal house.

King Mnguni: "How is she? "

Queen Sbahle: she is stable "

Mnguni: The Jat is ready; you need to leave soon ...the baby is getting restless "

Sbahle did not answer but just breathed out loud, she has always had six senses when it came to what her husband is feeling, and right now something in her is telling her that something is wrong.

Queen Sbahle: Mnguni I don't understand what this mean, Impi is your cousin her baby should not require to be born on the royal ground "

Mnguni: his royalty and his Mnguni blood is stronger than his Mother's Blood, he too is the future of the Mnguni bloodline "

Queen Sbahle: but why do I feel like his birth is like a funeral "

Mnguni: I feel that way too, "

Sbahle: what does this mean "

Mnguni breath out loud and held his queen tight, "I don't know my love, I can't 'seem to see past the birth of the baby, his future has a vail "

Sbahle: not his future only more like his existence, Mnguni what does this mean "

Mnguni: I don't know Hle-hle, ... have you informed the Nene's about your departure? "

Her: Yes, and there are not happy that Jabu is going to give birth to Engonyameni "

Mnguni: We have no choice Hle-Hle Birth in the Mnguni culture, is an important rite of passage and is therefore treated with due respect and honor, we do this for the sake of mother and baby's, our blood is mixed with of beast and having a normal birth in a hospital or attended by a midwife.

can lead to death due to painful labor, if Jabu gives birth here she will not make it alive this needs to happen"

Queen Sbahle: I know ... I know, Mnguni but ...."

Mnguni: There is no but Hle-hle, you know this.... It must be done "

She sighs and slowly let go of him, Mguni turned to look at her and he found her holding her face, there was more to that look than to what there were going through right now,

Mnguni: what's Wrong? "he asked with a consent voice.

Sbahle: I just received news that Ngozu Nqeve just landed, and she wishes to see you, care to explain?"

Mnguni find himself looking down, there was nothing more frightening in his life than making his queen mad and by him keeping a secret from her he knew that her wrath will come down on him like a ton of bricks, lying was not an option here cause as much as Mnguni's game might be tight, but her wife's game leaves no circulation running through it.
To most people Queen Sbahle's looks may be deceiving she looked like a little harmless kitty, yet behind closed doors she is powerful like a lion.

Mnguni attempted to talk but quickly kept quiet cause he knew that shit just got ugly, the cat is out of the bag So he might as well be careful and watch what his about to say, the look that Queen Sbahle is giving him now is enough to show that her mentality level is now skyrocketed

Sbahle: ooh you thought I would not find out?"

Mnguni: Hle-has come down I was going to tell you"

Sbahle: ooh wow and that's supposed to make me feel better, Mnguni how could you do this? You went up against a powerful sorceress from the North!!! "

Mnguni: I did not challenge her ...or go up against her ... I just ..."

Sbahle: it does not matter what you did because it was a matter of time before she realized that you were behind the shielding Mpume from her, how could you do that how could you get yourself involved in this mass "

Mnguni: she was tormented ... "

Sbanhle: and? How is that our business? ... Mnguni Ngozu is my devotee, not forgetting that she was the one that connected me with Oshun, Mvelo I almost died and Ngozu's wisdom helped me with my calling ... I am who I am today because of her, and you go out there to help Nompumelelo !!! what the fuck were you thinking!"

Mguni was lost for words, Sbahle's temper just went from zero to a hundred in seconds

Mguni: I'm sorry " '

Sbahle:... we have more pressing matters to deal with than going around helping self-inflicted broken souls uyangizwa " Queen Sbahle said pointing a finger at him

Mguni just nodded looking down, this shows that he has nothing but Faith in his marriage, and he ultimately respect and trust in his wife, of course, by obliging and trying to do all that He is asked to do. There would be no sense in saying he was a puppet and under his wife's control. But to him, this was showing obedience towards his Queen, Not speaking out trying to save himself, because He knew that his wife had already begun to save him in this mass that he had sunk himself into.

Sbahle: I said do you hear me? "

Mnguni looked at her and licked his lip before saying "Yes Hle-Hle ngiyakuzwa mkami" he walked close to her and held her waist.

Mnguni: now tell me how do I tell Lubanzi that I can't save the mother of his children "

He said looking down at her and placing his forehead on top of hers

Sbahle: Nompumelelo is far gone to be saved Mnguni, she killed a man, somebody's son, so whatever plans that Ngozu has for her that none of our business ... please stay out of it "

She looked at Mnguni, packed his lip, and ran his hand on his face,

Sbahle: your family needs you Mnguni .... I need you, Ngozu is not your typical witch she is a Nigerian Witch .... witchcraft to her is like child's play, stay out of this war it's not y ours to fight "

Mnguni breath out loud and said " I hear you,so do I talk to her "

Sbahle: I know her better I will handle this, wena just get back home soon please "

Mguni: I will be at home before midnight I promise "

He kissed her gently and squeezed her waist making her wince in pain.

Mnguni: you called me stupid "

Sbahle: SO? "

They both giggled and shared a passionate kiss, Sbahle pulled away

" I have to go, " she said stepping back, " Please don't come back later than midnight ok? "

Mnguni: I promise "

Queen Sbahle fixed herself and was about to step out but Mnguni stopped her

"Thank you "

She smiled blushing a bit, Mnguni was about to still another kiss but his phone started buzzing in his pocket, he looked at it and cursed

" Fuck!!!!"

Sbahle: wha? She said panicking and looking at Mnguni.

Mnguni: Impi was spotted in the Mnguni Towers last night! Look at this security footage taken by the guards "

Sbahle: WHAT!" she said looking at Mnguni's phone.

Mnguni: I swear I'm going to kill that boy now!
