My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



But the incident from earlier had resurfaced the desire she had buried away a long time ago.

She looked at Yesseca and asked, "Yesseca, do you really think that Nashaland has achieved actual equality?"

Yesseca took a deep breath. "I don't know if Nashaland actually has, but I can see that Tremaine is working really hard to make it happen. That incident would have ended very differently if he wasn't."

After a brief pause, Yesseca continued, "So long as Tremaine continues working with the same principles in mind, he'll eventually make it work in Nashaland."

Ruth's eyes glinted softly with hope.

Ruth smiled. "I may no longer live in Nashaland, but I still hope it comes true one day. As you said Yesseca, when Nashaland achieves real equality, it will be a wonderful country. It's already quite wonderful today."

Even though Nashaland hadn't become a truly free and equal country, right now it allowed a beggar to stand up for himself against an unjust person!

Nashaland!

This could only happen in Nashaland!

How amazing!

Even beggars were incredibly proud of their country!

The sky gradually turned to night.

It was time to go.

Ruth was reluctant.

She didn't want to leave after she had taken in the beautiful surroundings and the incident with the beggar from earlier.

She was born and raised in Nashaland after all.

Yesseca noticed how reluctant Ruth was.

She then said, "Hey Ruth. There isn't much work to do for the next couple of days. Why don't you stay in Nashaland, while Preslie and I head back?" Ruth shook her head, "No, I should head back with the two of you."

Yesseca smiled, "No, it's fine. There's hardly any work at all. Besides, this is your hometown, all your friends and family are here. You could take the time to visit them."

Ruth laughed bitterly.

Family? Friends?

She didn't have any of them in Nashaland.

But that relative didn't treat her like family at all. Ruth didn't want to see her ever again.

But-

Even though she didn't have any family or friends around, she still wanted to stay.

This was still her hometown and her son was here too.

Although her son lived a very separate life to hers, she liked the thought of being close to him.

"Are you sure the store won't be busy?" Ruth asked.

"Not at all." Yesseca replied, "You should stay for the next couple of days."

"Yeah. Yesseca and I will be more than enough to run things." Preslie added.

Ruth finally agreed.

Yesseca and Preslie booked a hotel room for Ruth before they left.

It was at a five star hotel.

Ruth wasn't willing to accept it at first.

She said that it was too expensive.

But Yesseca insisted.

She explained, "Do you know how much money you've helped us make with our bakery? Your our business partner! You can afford it now! If you still think you don't have enough money for a five star hotel stay, then our bakery isn't doing things right!"

Ruth's face went red when Yesseca reminded her of this.

She joined their bakery business much later after all.

The bakery was already operating in full swing by the time she joined them.
