Cape TownMapulaAm so tired, this time of year Cape Town is too hot you feel like you are melting, not to mention when one is wearing the type of uniform I have to wear to school every day. But am lucky because its November and am writing my exams next week. All this will be done and am going straight home right after exams. Am not waiting for schools to close and besides being tired I miss home, my mother’s cooking and no she doesn’t cook everyday since there is a chef but when am around she cooks for me. She says she doesn’t get to take care of me enough and I miss the beauty of nature.Oh my home town is peaceful and not as busy as it is here.

The princess was having a peaceful slumber when she dreamed about the people plotting against her and the king. She could tell that the people plotting against them were close to them however she could not tell who they were but their plans were evil. The dream changed and she saw her brother Lebo in some gun fight but what seemed strange was that he was fighting his friend the prince she met back in Cape Town.She was woken up by a knock on the door and she rolled out of bed and went to open the door.

MapulaI woke up with a banging headache, I try to open my eyes but they are heavy. I tried multiple times until they open. My eyes wonder around trying to take in my surroundings, I don’t know this room, I look to my side and I saw Kwezi still unconscious, she looks so peaceful. I let her sleep because I know when she wakes up she will freak out.I keep looking around but I don’t see anything familiar, I got up and went to the window, I pulled the curtain and the window had bugler bars on it.
