It was a normal day, Adjo awoke, Femi was there cleaning, he said good morning, he got dressed, went down to breakfast and ate with his family. But there was something new at the table, there was joy, there was excitement, there was thrill. Adjo had no idea what was happening. He asked Ako why everyone was so happy, he said that Seth was going to visit Mesi. He then asked for how long. Ako said one whole week. Adjo was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy he couldn't control himself. He was the happiest he had ever been (except when Femi came to work for him and when he first met Femi) Adjo thought a whole week with Seth that is amazing. He could do so many things without his brother saying to him "Don't do that" or "You could get hurt!" It was a dream come true. Ako said that he had been saving something so thrilling and so shock worthy, for this occasion when Seth was gone, he told Adjo that they should build a huge sand fort! Adjo didn't look so impressed because he could do that any day even with Seth around. Ako then said "JUST KIDDING!!! We are going to ride down the biggest sand dune that is near our palace!" Adjo was very impressed by how his brother thought they should spend this amazing week. So the two boys walked all the way up to the top of the sand dune and slid down it. The sand dune was so steep that some of Adjo's makeup was flying behind him like a cape. When they reached the bottom the boys both agreed to do that again. They slid down that sand dune until supper. They even missed lunch! No I'm kidding they had lunch then went back. This was the best day of their life and it was like that everyday until Seth came back.

The boys were very sad but they weren't entirely sad for they had spent the whole week doing the most amazing stunts and daredevil thrills that anyone had every done. When Seth came back he was so happy. We all wondered why. When he got here he told us that the week he had spent with Mesi was the best week ever. Father then asked him if it was true. Seth said "YES!" Ako and Adjo wondered what they meant but not a moment later their father screamed out "My son is getting married!" Ako and Adjo were very shocked. They both never thought this was going to happen. Seth said that the wedding was taking place at Asyut. The pharaoh was very pleased he was to host the wedding and asked his son who was coming. Seth said that all Mesi's relatives that live in her kingdom are coming and a few of her friends so they should have food for more than they think is good enough. We were very happy for Seth and we thought to ourselves 'Seth will be so pre-occupied by Mesi he won't care what we are doing!' We were so happy. 

The wedding was to happen in a week, the food was getting organized the room where the wedding was going to be was getting organized everyone was doing something for the wedding except Adjo and Ako (and Femi of course) they were having fun but then the pharaoh decided that they should spread the word to the people that Seth wanted to invite. Ako and Adjo got a group of servant ready and told them to give invites to these people (I'm not going to say names) So the servants were sent on their way. Not long later they all came back and all the invites had been handed and all the guests were coming. Seth was very pleased. Then the day came, the day before the wedding. Everything was ready and Mesi and her family were arriving. Iabi was there and Pharaoh Unas was there. Everything was in place. All were happy and everyone felt glad for the soon to be married couple.
