Sisi followed the maid who came to call her. The maid who is slim, dark and tall like iroko tree had a mean look that Sisi couldn’t even ask her who is calling her or where they were going to. She was just following her like the obedient sheep.
They walked till they got to the garden. Sisi wondered who could be looking for her in the garden. Her curiosity was at its peak but the girl’s attitude and negative aura refused to waver. She decided to remain quiet to avoid been insulted and she followed closely behind the girl.
Sisi could hear loud noise not far from where they were. The garden is always a beautiful sight to behold. The canopies of trees encompass the great sparse of the garden and prevented the penetration of sun rays to the barest minimum.
Sisi inhaled the delightful fragrance that wafted through the summer air and she could hear the sound of birds and the tinkling of wind chimes. She had missed coming to the garden.
She didn’t know she had stop walking as she was admiring the atmosphere when she heard the girl
“Hey, why are you looking like you’ve never seen the garden before?” the girl hissed, “Let’s go joor.”
Sisi followed her immediately and she saw the Queen and Princess Tola eating on a marble table in the garden. They were surrounded with maids that are tending to flowers around them.
They both looked in the direction of Sisi and the tall maid as they heard rustling of leaves. Sisi was surprised to see the queen and the princess and she was praying quietly hoping she is not in trouble.
“Good afternoon, your majesty.” Sisi greeted as she bowed her head.
“So you are the famous girl trying to force yourself on the prince. Don’t you have shame? How can you stoop so low and be forcing yourself to fit in where you don’t belong.” The queen shot back at Sisi, every word laced with venom.
To say Sisi was flabbergasted would be an understatement. She was rendered speechless by the queen’s statement and had to look at princess Tola for help. Princess Tola was just sipping her juice without a care in the world.
“My queen, I don’t know what you are talking about. All what you are saying sounds strange to…”
“Shut your stinking mouth right now. You are not even scared of my presence and you are lying.” Tola bellowed.
