Akila,
The girl looked at the people who were gathered to witness someone's demise.
And even though the woman was pleading her case, and was succeeding.
But all of that didn't matter to her. She was feeling numb, broken, and lost her will to live.
Annipe stood proudly stroking her big swollen belly, then she eyed her victoriously.
And Akila understood the king's mistake by gathering all his people here for her.
Akila looked at her husband and saw when he figured it out. It was when his eyes narrowed and his jaws clenched.
Annipe demanded for what she called her right and her son's. She demanded that Ramses name her son the next pharaoh.
Akila stroked her stomach softly as he smiled down at it. Her son has been quiet for over a week now.
He used to kick and move in her belly and she could feel the warmth that emitted from him.
But now she thinks that he was mourning the loss of his father as well.
