NTOMBI (GIRL)

Chapter 14

The Sun feels amazing against my skin. I'm seating outside the house after i finished cleaning the house. I didn't feel like joining father Michael to church today. Everything I touched fell and maybe this is a sign of some sort. I miss the way things were at first. I miss my home and my grandmother. Her stories and her sweet voice. 

Things have changed for me. I'm no longer the girl I was before. The Prince and everyone who should've protected me hurt me. 

"Here she is!!" I heard men shout from the gate. Who are they? They seemed to be from... oh no! The royal guards from my village. I need to hide. I quickly stood up to run inside the house.

"Ntombi! Please my love wait." The pleading voice could only belong to non other than Prince Muzi. Why is he here? I turned around and I saw the most handsome man I've ever seen in my life. He still has an effect on me to this day.

"What do you want? I've done nothing to you people this time. Please just get away from me. You've done enough." I tried my best to not run into his arms. I've missed him so much but he was one of those people.

"I came here for you. Ntombi I need to explain things to you. I need you back in life." what is it with him. Does he want to hurt me all over again?

"Just go! I don't want to hear anything. This person you are looking at is no longer the one you used to love. I've changed Muzi. Save your speech and go away." I'm an idiot. Deep down I'm dying to be in his arms. I can't let my guard down only to be hurt again.

"I won't let you..." I continued walking inside the house as I heard his pitch decreasing until I couldn't hear him anymore.

Prince Muzi pov.

"I won't let you go this time." I said before she closed the door. I'm not leaving this village unless she comes with me. I'll do whatever i can to get her to be my queen again. 

We settled our things in the house the king of this village offered us. I would love more than anything to be at home with Ntombi. I need her back no matter what. It would hurt to think that she has moved on.

Father Michael POV

"We need to be believe that all things are possible with him. Never! Forget HE that loves you so much that he have his own son for us. Now I leave you with this message. See you all next week." I finished preaching and led people outside my church as i spoke soothing words to them. It's sad that Ntombi didn't come with us but she didn't seem like herself today well... she hasn't been feeling like herself lately. 

Whatever it is she going through she must trust that the Lord will make it all right. She needs to forgive in order for her to move forward . Holding it all in isn't good for anyone. I need to have a word with her as soon as possible.

"Father there's a man here to see you." My son called from behind. I wonder who it could be.

The man in question was waiting for me outside the church. He looked well off, not like many of the man from here. His clothes and jewellery looked expensive. He must have come from royalty, but I doubt because the king has only one son and I've seen him before. 

"Afternoon. I'm father Michael, the owner of this honourable church." I extended my right hand to him as i introduced myself. 

"I know." He gave me a side smirk. " Please call me Muzi." This young man only shook my hand now. So much confidence and power that was rediating off of him. I wonder who's son is this.

I quickly brushed my thoughts aside and led him inside the church to one of the many chairs inside. "I came here for my queen." Ahh that was quick. A man who waste no time I see. Did he just say queen? Oh so he is a royalty. Must be a rich village then. wait... but how do I fit in all this queen stuff? 

"I don't understand..." I couldn't remember his name. His response only led me to like him more.

"Muzi sir." Not many from royalty would be this calm if I had forgotten their names. This is intriguing. He continued, " Ntombi. That's the woman I'm talking about. need her back to me."
