Narrated
The driver dropped them off at the hotel. Upon arriving at the hotel the man walked with her to enter the hotel carrying her bag on his shoulder while wheeling his suitcase with Yibanathi walking not far behind him with her looking down the whole time.
She however was no longer crying but she was just scared as to where she was going with this stranger and why was she not scared to follow him. He reached a very beautiful lady who had a huge smile plastered on her face with quite heavy make-up on and she greeted him before he even began to open his mouth.
"How may I help you?"
The lady proceeded to ask him.
"I booked a room here yesterday. I have an sms to confirm my booking."
He said while taking out his phone and showing her the message. She then continues to type while staring at her computer then she opens the drawer of the counter next to her and takes out a set of keys and gives it to him. He mumbles a thank you then the receptionist points out to where he must go then he goes with the luggage.
They get to the room and he drops the luggage on the floor then starts to fiddle with the keys to try open the door. The key does not work and he shakes his head.
" I should have known this would happen, I should have seen by being given a set of keys instead of an access card! "
He curses through gritted teeth.
"Can I help..."
Yibanathi says with a soft voice. The guy steps aside and you can see that he was even frowning after all he is given 5 keys. Yibanathi takes the keys with her hands shaking a bit and she tries one of the keys and the key fits perfectly and with just one turn the door clicks and she turns the handle and they are welcomed by a small room that looks plain and dull.
"Shuu!"
The guy exclaims while shaking his head. They both look at each other before they enter the room. Yibanathi looks unsure while inside the room, the guy notices this and drops the luggage on the floor.
"Look I am not going to do anything to you so I am harmless."
He says with a smile but that does not help make Yibanathi comfortable. It's not like a dangerous person has ever announced of how dangerous they are.
"You can call me Junior by the way."
He continues.
"My name is Yibanathi but you can call me Anathi."
She says softly more like she is assuring herself that she is Anathi.
"Alright Anathi feel free I will be out of your hair...I will just go downstairs and get the rooms thing sorted out you can stay here I will be back."
He says leaving her standing there. She nods to herself while he just left the room.
Well, well what other better way to start your new chapter in life by changing your name. People need to know the new you and forget about the old you.
