Nobody spoke during breakfast after I completely gave T'Challa the cold shoulder. I gave Storm a bottle since she was a lot younger than Oliver and she still drank milk. It turned out that storm was actually still too young to be separated from her mother. Her size gave it away because she was a lot smaller than Oliver when I got him. So not only did T'Challa give me a baby lamb who was still nursing, he gave me a baby lamb who got ripped away from her mother too soon while trying to scramble to make up for last night. When she wasn't sucking on the bottle she was sucking on my fingers just as a lamb her age would. That made me angry too.
" That little one cries. How old is she ? ", Zuri was at the breakfast table this morning and the first to finally speak.
" A couple weeks I believe. Too young ", I watched her down a bottle in my arms.
" Oh she's just a babe, whoever picked her out got her too soon ", Zuri spoke the obvious and I could see T'Challa grimace at the breakfast table. Of course T'Challa didn't pick her out himself, he sent a servant to do it so it wasn't entirely his fault.
" Let it prepare you for an heir then. I'll tell you, a baby is a lot worse than that little thing ", Romanda flipped through her Saturday news paper sipping from her mug.
" Can I feed her ? ", Shuri finally decided to get off her phone and interact.
" Of course ", I took the bottle from storms mouth and handed her to Shuri. She cried until that bottle was placed into her mouth again. Shuri giggle while watching her scrambled to get the milk from the bottle as if she'd never seen food her whole life. Storm eventually calmed in her arms while Shuri fed her, seemingly relaxed with her presence. I smiled knowing she was finally comfortable. I contemplated sending her back to wherever she was taken from.
" Well since someone decided to rip the baby from it's mother, go to the farmer she was gotten from and buy the entire flock with the mother in it. Give the farmer whatever amount he requests. T'Challa will pay for it ", I informed Suko who just so happened to be in the room.
" Let me get this correct, you want the entire flock of sheep and lambs ? ", Suko looked at me madly.
" That is correct ", I stared T'Challa down and he looked at me with the flattest expression.
" Get her what she wants ", he took a swig of his coffee and looked away. He regretted saying yes but I suppose his ego made me agree, and his pride. Suko started making calls. I ate my breakfast quietly while everyone talked amongst themselves but us. Instead we stole quiet glances at one another through the morning.
" We need you to sign here to confirm you want this flock your highness ", Suko slid T'Challa a Digital pad where he'd have to sign his name with his finger. He did and slid the pad back to her.
" Your hair appointment is in 15 minutes your highness ", Suko bows herself out of the room. Everybody had left the breakfast table and T'Challa and I sat across from each other.
The Royal family had an event today. Romanda, T'Challa, Shuri and myself were going to be attending an event for the children of Wakanda. We'd be touring one of the biggest orphanages in Wakandan and presenting them with a huge donation. The children would be putting on a performance for us that would be televised. News broadcasters would be lining up outside to see us because it had been awhile since T stepped foot out in the public. He'd been so busy lately that the media was getting antsy for him to make an appearance with me. After the event we'd be attending another major football game (soccer) and the children of the orphanage would be joining us (my treat). The football games were a big deal in Wakanda with it being a widely celebrated sport in Africa.
