The Queen looked beautiful. She was breath taking and it was all my good work.
"Thank you Femi you can leave now. My husband will be waiting for me and you need to get on with your duties." She waited for me to leave.

"Well the Pharaoh is going to love this. We better get him." With his hand he summoned some guards to take me and Cissy away.
