A week has passed since you left Gorilla City and word has quickly spread around the country about the rumored separation with you and the Great Gorilla. From local news reporters, gossip blogs and social media they have been covering the story as they desperately tried to dig for information.
However, aside from the nosy journalists, you were focused on protecting the innocence of your children as everyday they'd seem to have detailed questions about your split and continued to tell you about the rumors they heard circulating from tribe to tribe.
Who wants to talk to their kids and hear them ask, "—Umama, why did you and utata split?"
Or tell you, "—I heard a council member say that utata was caught in bed with a hooker. What's a hooker, umama?"
Whenever you saw them you prepared yourself to sugar coat the answers to any of their questions.
Meanwhile, after you left the Jabari kingdom and traveled into the city you found yourself staying at a luxurious villa courtesy of King T'Challa after making one call. Besides, him being the understanding King of Wakanda that he is, didn't want to hear about you struggling to find a place of for you and your kids.
Furthermore, the villa he gifted you had everything you needed and more as it was as a two-story home with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Coming fully furnished with a pool attached and vibranium infused technology wired throughout the villa courtesy of Shuri.
After showing you the villa he insisted that you stay close to the palace that way if you needed anything or if an emergency occurred he would be close by.
Finding the double meaning behind his words you shook off the warm feeling inside before he departed leaving you with a soft peck on the cheek and a firm hug. Not having the energy to question his motives you left it at that and started to unpack your belongings.
With your favorite record playing you sung the lyrics to Mary J Blige as you danced throughout the home.
Wanting your children to be as comfortable as possible seeing as though their parents were going through a nasty separation you wanted to introduce them to a new environment with a warmer climate.
As two days passed since you moved into your house and it was now time for you to go back to Gorilla City to discuss the details of your separation with M'Baku in the presence of lawyers, advisors and tribe elders.
Traveling back up to the snowy mountains as cold temperatures engulfed you, you began to feel uneasy as you had to dress up in the thick furs and headgear to survive the freezing climate.
Reaching the kingdom, you were greeted by the guards before you walked to the throne room where the meeting was scheduled. Walking deeper into the room you spotted your advisor and lawyers and gave them a pleasant smile before your eyes landed onto the large frame of the Great Gorilla who sat on his encrusted throne with a deeply disturbed face.
