Recap:
"Masi qhlale ke." (let us begin then) she murmured. Immidaitely my eyes were cast down again and we waited. Until we heard them sing. The girls choosen to walk with me began singing as we approached the kingdom from the river. We had smiles on our faces as we followed our routine and sung. Not lifting our legs to high otherwise the skirts would show our underwear though our breasts were bare.
We took pride in our bodies, yes we weren't fit but we loved ourselves. We could hear the chants as our families sung with us and man began to immidaitely dance to try and awe us. We were not moved. No matter how they looked. We continued until my father walked forward to accept us.
