Just Mine 86 My Woman

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 and you 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 governor for 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 G.o.d. 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.

There's nothing funny about it Dwayne, and nothing to hear. Sky answered him

So I told the king to pardon us that my boss here wasn't really well as we drove all the way here to get permission from him. she had thought the meeting will be in the town not in the village, it was very hot and the road was really bad. Well I used my skin as an a.s.set cause the elders kept looking at me, one even pinched me. It was a really remote village Dwayne, I bet even you wouldn't know such a place existed.

Well back to my tale. So the king looked at Sky and said to her in his deep accent ..but he's English was smooth, I wasn't expecting it.

This is my kingdom woman and I run this place, and here in Amacharim, woman don't have a say in anything.

Then she replied him. Well I apologise your majesty but you should understand that I own an empire and I am the King of that empire, I have a lot of people under me so you should understand that this is a meeting among kings and if you do business with me you won't regret it, I will treat you well when you visit the Capital and even put you in our presidential suites.

Hmmm woman what do you mean you are a king, you are a woman.

Your majesty please i have done my homework about you, you are educated, I know you had no choice than to take this throne cause of the promise your father made, I'm not here to cheat you but to work with you and to make your town popular.

Well you are right, I was appointed King not too long ago after the death of my grandfather. Stand up woman and come, white man, you can sit. I like the way you talk woman, you are bold and brave. I'd love to do business with you and see what you can do. He smiled and shook hands with her.

I'm telling you Dwayne, that was how we closed the deal, the governor told us that King Uze's family had refused to sell the land to anyone for years,and that the land was in a good location, we went there with our fingers crossed but it didn't take us thirty minutes to seal the deal. Her stubbornness actually got us the land.

Wow Dwayne said as he looked at his boss.

Anton I was irritated, you are right about that, I was pregnant then, that's my first pregnancy. The king had a house just ten minutes away from the land but he made us drove one hour in a bad road just to see him plus the guards didn't treat us well.

Yeah you only told me you were pregnant after we came back home from that place. Anton replied her.

Well Dwayne that's not all...we are at the shop, let's go in and sit...I'll gist you before we start shopping.

There's more? Dwayne asked surprised

Yes Anton said smiling brightly. Just sit down and listen.
