86 My woman (1/2)

When they arrived at the shipping complex, Dwayne helped Sky with her door. She lost her footing when coming down, he caught her immediately, and she held him for support, she looked up to say thank you when she saw his eyes, I thought it was brown she said to herself, it changed colour in the sun, or if you look closely, you'll see it. Thank you, she said, standing on her own.

Anton, Anton, we are here, Anton? Dwayne went to the other side of the car, calling Mr Anton, it was not until he opened the door and touched Mr Anton, that he answered him. Are you ok bro?

Anton shook his head, and looked at Dwayne confused ..oh he said, realising where he was, he looked around for Sky and saw her standing outside the car, looking at him worried. I'm sorry, he said to them both, as he got down from d car. I was just thinking if something.

Ok. So the School at the north will open soon right, she asked Anton.

Yes, everything is ready, After the party we can open the school, and the mall too at Amaracharim Village is also good to go. Anton remembered something and bust into laughter. Sky rolled her eyes as Anton laughed.

Why are you laughing Anton? Dwayne asked him.

I just remembered what this mule here did in that village, she's so stubborn.

Don't call my woman a mule Dwayne said to Anton.

Wait till you hear what she did andyou might just agree with me.

We went there to buy the land we'll use for our building but we were told it belonged to a king in a remote village and it was an hour drive to get there because of the bad road. The land was in a good location, close to a university, A big city was thirty minutes away and even the airport was close but it was the land of a king in a remote village. It took us two days before the King agreed to see us. After driving there, We were able to get the king to see us, after asking the state governorfor a favour. Now when we got into the palace, we were asked to bow down before the king before we sit.

Well I got down on my knee and bowed down, it was all amusing to me, the kings attire, the way the palace was dressed. So I did it anyway. Now i noticed your boss here was still standing, oh you need to see the look she had on her face like are you for real? in this century, I dragged her skirt to get her down. She finally knelt down and greeted the king but refused to bow.

Now an elder told her that, if she didn't bow, the king wouldn't speak to us. This was the exact word of your boss. imitating Sky voice he said..

” I'm sorry wise one but I bow to no other than my God. I already paid my respect by kneeling down and please you are not doing us a favour by selling the land. Think of how your people won't have to go all the way to the state capital to get goods or whatever they needed and people from other places would come to your town”

I was stunned, we were suppose to be persuading this people not get into a fight with them. I pinched her but she slapped my hand off. That was when I noticed she was irritated, you don't want to be with her when she's irritated.

So what happened? Dwayne asked, interested.

Sky gave him a deadly look and he smiled sheepishly, ma'am permission please, I really want to know how it happened.
