Hungry and Gluttonous Hyaenas

THE SINFUL EMPRESS

Chapter Fourteen

To be honest, the girls are scared, and I think they want to run away but I signal them to calm down and they do. We have been going for more than ten kilometers and we are super hungry. I have seen fruits, very alluring ones but I have to follow granny's instructions I have also seen wild ones all over and some people here are busy salivating.

I remember grandma telling me not to eat anything by the roadside. Ooh, and we left our leftover foods because we didn't have enough time to carry anything. Do you understand what I mean? We are both hungry and tired at the same time.

We get by a certain river and I stop to wash my face. That was an instruction that I must wash my face when we cross any river for reasons only known to the wise man and my grandma. Before I lift my face up, there is food, nicely made meal and yes, someone is already eating that. We have passed some of these and I told these girls not to eat.
