I could not believe it, I have feelings for her, I don’t want her to marry someone else, and I don’t want her to be somebody else’s wife, and I want to be with her here and always.
“Bontle you can’t get married, I mean what about us”
“I don’t seem to understand”
“I like you, I feelings for you, don’t you feel the same?”
“What are feelings?”
“I want marry you,” and then I realized what I just said and how stupid I sounded, I mean I have just known her for two months, how could I possibly want to marry her, but then again I would not mind seeing her every day, holding her hand and laughing at her silly jokes.
“You want to marry me?”
“Yes”
“But what about our families, we come from two different worlds, we can’t, my tribe and duties as a princess are important, I cannot marry you”
She stands up as she says those words and packs up and leaves, I follow her and before I knew it, I kiss her on the lips, holding her wide waist, and pulling her towards me, she doesn’t fight me, her lips are sweet because of the wild fruit she had been eating, her lips are soft and warm, she kisses me back wrapping her arms around me, her scent is fresh and green, we kiss while exchanging tongues, we kiss for the first time, and then she pulls away.
