Some Random Story I made

Chapater One

(Look The chapters are really short so don't expect much but still please read- Emit) 

I woke up to the sound of the birds chirping getting louder and louder until all I could distinguish was the crowing of the crows and the tweets of the songbirds. I let my eyes open and adjust to all the light pouring through the room. With a stretch and a loud yawn, I got up, brushed my teeth and hair then went downstairs. I came down to the familiar quietness of the house and ate my breakfast in silence. I put on my shoes and headed out the door following the familiar tracks I would take with my father, passed the village and towards the farming grounds. I walked the 5 miles to the Nile, once I arrived the workers were already there. I yelled, pushing people over to get to my area. A man grumbled and muttered a few profanities towards the gods.

I rolled my eyes and hollered towards the man who was beginning to get even angrier by the second, " Kamuzu you can't be angry at the gods- it's not their fault you came late. "

" At least I do my assigned job and not running around doing my father's job- I mean how could I? My father is dead and so is yours." He said sneering at me.

My anger grew, short enough for the other workers to notice, I screamed about to launch myself towards Kamuzu but before I could two of the workers grabbed my arm and someone grabbed me by the ear and dragged me away to my station, " Tahak what have we told you about violence here? " A man hissed into my ear. Swallowing my disrespectful words, I muttered, 

" Sorry katheen I won't do it again "  He finally let go of my ear, and with the shovel in my hands, I started my work.

The sun's heat glared down at us as if it was Ra (The God of Sun for ancient Egyptians) who was angry with us. Sweat formed on my forehead and I squinted my eyes looking behind me. My duty was to dig the canals leading through the Nile River to water the crops me and my people need to survive.

Our job is to dig up the canals intercepting the water from the Nile to the crops so we can all be fed Tahak. Hapi (the god of the Nile) gave us this river for our good, now we must use this privilege to crop our plants, to bathe, and to drink. You must always be grateful to Hapi for giving us The Nile Tahak. It was Hapi who convinced Ra to give us the water for us to survive, without it all this land would be desert and we would have died in a week when the first Egyptians were made.

The night sky was all I saw when I finished my work for the canals. Stars glittering the night sky like sprinkles of sand on a white tiled floor, sticking out like a stack of vegetables in a meat pile.

I looked towards the calm rivers of the Nile and the memories flooded back. My father had drowned in the rich season when the Nile was only a dangerous raging river of destruction and death. I was only 12 at that time, seeing him drown right before my eyes, not being able to do anything,  the body was never found but we still had the annual ceremony for the ones we lost in that season. Ever since I was alone only to rely on my father's work to give me enough money to feed myself, and wear enough attire to cover my body.

Some say to be assigned to the canals is something one should dread until their final breaths, but this is not true. All this land was made by the ones who made the canals, we are to follow their footsteps and help those from old age, to take their place as a canal worker. Our job is very important Tahak, our job is to keep the farming land fertile enough to plant and farm so we and our people could be fed. No matter the circumstance we were gifted to fulfill the wish of Hapi and make our soil rich and fertile to plant for the many years and seasons to come. That, Tahak is the gift and privilege we were granted to become one who works and looks over the canals
