She fell in love with Banki, the hunter, and there was nothing anyone could do to tear them apart.

Not even mountain of money could buy her heart. That’s how strong true love is and I cherish it. Even though life with her love was too short and her three sons being taken away from her as well 😞, she still remained happy and lived her life to the full. I believe, little Akan and Amaeke where meant to meet. Her reaction, when she saw Akan, was like she was expecting him, like she expected someone to be part of her life again. Perhaps in her mind, she believed it was one of her deceased sons or even her husband.

Sometimes, Akan found himself wondering if there is such a thing as reincarnation and whether one of his sons or daughters was incarnate of Amaeke.

Even though I don’t believe in reincarnation since I believe in something completely diferent, I could understand when Akan was looking at one of his children as being incarnate of Amaeke.
As always, I’m really excited to read one of your short stories @churchboy!
