Enhle the girl behind the innocent face
Enhle's thoughts swirled as she lay in bed, the smith's dinner party was still fresh in her mind. Jame's charming smile and Themba's mysterious gaze lingered.Suddenly her room plunged into darkness. Enhle's heart quickened.
Enhle:who's there?
No response.
She sensed the presence, like someone watching her.
Enhle threw off her covers and approached the window. Outside shadows danced across the lawn..
A figure emerged from the darkness.
Themba:enhle meet me at the old tree
He then vanished.
Enhle was brave enough to follow the path to the tree.
Themba:you're in danger you family's secrets are not what they seem.
Enhle's world Bagan to unravel.
Enhle:what do you mean?.
Themba's gaze locked into hers.
Themba:The Ngle family curse. It's real.
Enhle's heart skipped a beat
Enhle:What curse?.
Themba's voice dropped to a whisper
Themba:A curse that haunted your family for generations. One that will destroy everything if you don't break it.
Enhle's mind reeled.
