" I am sorry. I didn't want to sound so rude. I-" Ze instantly apologized. He might b a big dude with strong muscles but he wouldn't be able to handle his wife's fury. Beside, he did crossed the line to so degree.
" Save it. I just wanted to tell you that so stranger ca to the house and been asking for you. I was surprised to hear him speak our language so fluently-" She was excited when telling him the story but as soon as Ze heard what she said he interrupted her.
" Wait, wait, wait! Are you telling that there is a stranger in the house and he is speaking our language? Are you sure?" Ze's first thought was that his family was in danger.
Samuel had warned him repeatedly to never let his guard down. The area that they lived in was fairly outside the Estate but it wasn't easy for normal people to access it as it had high security.
Usually, people wouldn't be able to get there but he knew nothing was impossible when it ca to their enemies as they would surprise them again and again with each encounter.
" Is sothing wrong? I left the kids-" Ayize felt the horror. She seed to forget what her husband did because the environnt was too peaceful. If the young man really had so bad intentions, she would be blad as she led him right into her house!
" Stop thinking about it. Tell what he looks like?" Ze asked thinking of another possibility but it seed to farfetched.
He knew the boss would be returning today but he should first visit his family or go to office, he wouldn't try to skip everything to et his family right?
But after knowing him all his years, he felt like that's what soone as eccentric as his boss would do. He could be the only one that could talk in Nguni at least that's what he believed as he had seen him do it on mission countless tis, speaking obscure language that no one had even heard about in their team!
Ayize quickly told him what Samuel looked like. After hearing her, he breathed a sigh of relief, it seed the boss was really at his ho and he was playing with his kids? How free was he after wrecking havoc just this morning!
" I will be there as soon as possible. Just don't say anything to him." Ze said solemnly.
" Is he dangerous?" Ayize asked nervously.
" Dangerous? Probably but he wouldn't harm us or our family. Just keep in eye on him so that he doesn't do anything crazy and no matter what don't let him leave!" Ze added.
Ayize didn't know what he was talking about but her mind was on kids. She wanted to see them as soon as possible. As far as he rembered, she left them in the kitchen before coming upstairs and they must have ventured out because that's what they like to do.
She rushed downstairs trying to see the situation but what she saw shocked her again.

Downstairs, Samuel had managed to 'coerce' the kids to try his sweets. It felt bad to think about it but he needed to do it so that he could at least get close to them.

He slowly ca close to them and saw two feet away from them on the sofa while they enjoyed his gift.
" Now, can you tell your na?" He asked the boy.
The boy nodded before saying," Lwazi."
" Lwazi ans knowledge. Nice na. What about your little lady?" There were so discrepancies because these phases didn't entirely translated perfectly in Nguni but he tried.
The girl was chewing the chocolate and took her ti to gaze at him. She seed interested in his bright green eyes that glowed like gem as he sat under the bright light.
She had seen many different type of person on her journey here but he seed to be most unique in her eyes.
" I am Nandi. Four years old!" She even pulled out her fingers to display four so he would understand her better.
Her big eyes and satisfied expression as she enjoyed the sweet was so cute that he just wanted to pinch her chubby cheeks!
Her briads just added to her beauty as she shook them around when it ca in her way. Maybe because she was young, the chocolate lted a lot making her small hand ssy and sticky.
" Nandi ans sweet right? Do you like the gift?" He asked with a smile and started to fold the spare towel. If she didn't clean her hands, she would surely wipe it on her dress which would be a pain in the ass to clean up!
She nodded heavily like she knew what her na ant already. He quickly wetted the towel and asked them to sit beside them so that he could clean their hands.
Although the girl was quite open earlier, she still looked at her big brother for guidance. Lwazi wasn't scared, he was a warrior just like the people of his tribeSo he went first and confidently stretched his hands.
Samuel didn't saw anything just smiled and quickly cleaned his hand and even wiped his mouth which surprised him a little.
Most of the tis, his mother or other elders would take of children in their village but from how skilled Samuel was he seed to be quite good with kids. Obviously, his thoughts didn't go this far, it's just he felt the man who looked different seed capable.
It was Nandi's turn. Samuel directly picked her up and placed her on his lap. She paniced but seeing her brother was nearby, she endured as Samuel did his thing. Before she knew it, she was placed down on the ground again and the stickiness between her fingers were gone!
The kids didn't forget to thank him which made Samuel pat their head. That was the exact mont Ayize ca into the picture. Seeing him smile while touching her kid's hair gave her the biggest fright for so reason!
