NEXT DAY.
The queen left home very early taking one guard and a maid with her, they drove for close to two hours before they got to their destination. The guard parked and she dropped from the car and asked them to wait for her here. She entered the dirty compound that has charms all over and knocked. Not long the native doctor appeared behind her.
NATIVE DOCTOR
A rat does not run in the day time for nothing ( his voice frighten her, she quickly turn her back to face him) its after something or something is after it.
QUEEN
Good day wise one.
NATIVE DOCTOR
What you seek is beyond my power, I can not help you madam.
QUEEN
I havenāt stated my mission Ezemo
NATIVE DOCTOR
What an elder see just sitting on the floor, a child wonāt see even if he climbed a mountain.
QUEEN
I want that girl out of the way, how can my son be in love with that thing?
NATIVE DOCTOR
What you saw last night, the two guards who wanted to attack her they died didnāt they?
QUEEN
I donāt know how my son did it, he said it and it happened the way he said it.
NATIVE DOCTOR
Whatever happened last night wasnāt your sonās doing but hers. Her great grandmother was a bride to the god of thunder and lightening, when your son made the decision to marry her, her grandmotherās spirit went into her, when the guards touched her the god of thunder became jealous and struck them.
QUEEN
( Looking surprise) but Ruth is not his bride why would he be jealous?
NATIVE DOCTOR
( He laughs) what you see is bigger than what you do not knowā¦.the god of thunder struck them dead because his bride was in the body of Ruth and not to forget Ruth is his granddaughter.
QUEEN
(If she like she should be god of thunder herself, I will still kill her. She thought inwardly) wise one you donāt understand, I want my son to marry a girl from a wealthy home, not that poor maid.
NATIVE DOCTOR
Thereās a saying ā if Iām not up to your class, make me to be among your classā if you think sheās not up to your sonās level, why not brush her up and make her your class?
QUEEN
Itās a waste of time coming here, the person that directed me here if I had not known her for a very long time I would have cursed her with my royal authority. You are fake you canāt kill just a little girl. ( she turn her back and starting walking away.
The native doctor laughed and laughed, he disappeared and appeared before the Queen.
NATIVE DOCTOR
You can go else and ask them to kill your sonās wife to be, they would gladly do it because all the want is money and not what the gods says. If your son has taken the purity of that child( Ruth) they become one bone, one body and one bloodā¦.whatever affect the eyes will always affect the nose. Be wise.
QUEEN
What do you mean by that? I donāt understand your proverbs.
NATIVE DOCTOR
If the Prince make love to her they are bound to become one, heavy rain will pour, lighting and thunder will takes turn around the palace.
QUEEN
My son can not bring himself to low to sleep with that thingsā¦.he has got taste that I know.
( he disappeared but his voice was still heard by the Queen) if she dies the prince dies too, whatever pain she feels they would both feel itā¦think twice before hurting your son.
The queen seriously wanted to believe the native doctor but her doubt was bigger, she got into her car and asked the driver to take her to any nice native doctor he knows around. The guard nodded and started the car
