Zhuni's Soulmate

Chapter 7: Reunited

Zhuni stared into Jahbrils'eyes as if she was seeing him again
for the first time.How could any of this be? Yet she knew just as she knew her own name that every word this man said was true.

As they walked back toward there table on the patio,there waitress
beckoned for them, there food had arrived.But so many emotions were coursing through Zhuni that she could hardly breathe let alone eat.
"I feel like I'm still dreaming Jahbril", Zhuni said as she slowly took a languid sip of her wine."You know I had a dream about you and I last night" So she shared what she had seen in her dreams with him. The music, the colors, the scent of cinnamon, and the tree. He could not believe his ears,Zhuni had seen
The Ancestors Sacred Tree, each lifetime that they found there way back to each other there was a ceremony for them ...in front of this tree.  
"I know this is a lot for you to take in",Jahbril said as he took her hands and kissed them."But please understand...we were indeed, meant for each other, and I would like to take you, and the children back with me,... to Niberu."
"But ... Why cant we stay here!" Zhuni gasped, out of all the things she was expecting him to say... leaving the planet was not one of them!"Because we dont belong here... we never did.
"Look, I know this is sudden, but if you look at all the time we HAVENT spent with each other for our entire lives..." " This Lifetime..." But what about the children Jahbril?, how will they adjust .... and on such short notice?"
" I know Zhuni,but I want you to trust me, I dont believe the children will have a problem with this .... I know they are ready."Zhuni could only stare at Jahbril in amazement, now with tears forming in her eyes,she wanted nothing more then to be able to trust him,infact everything in her told her that this man was right... but how could she trust a feeling? No matter how strong?.
"Come now, lets have our meal" Jahbril said soothingly,while rubbing her hands.
The food was wonderful, and before she knew it, Zhuni was laughing and enjoying herself once again. It seemed like it only took this man  one or two sentences to completely calm her.
after dinner, they decided to stroll along the waters edge, then onto the park they walked through the first night they met.
Zhuni had decided... She and her family would go with Jabril.

"When do we go,and more importantly ...how will we get there?" Zhuni asked as Jahbril rubbed her shoulders as they sat on a park bench.A smile stole across his face as his eyes danced excitedly."On the last night of this full moon the doorway  between the worlds will be open,all we need to do is be at a particular place tommorrow night at midnight."
This was still alot for Zhuni to wrap her mind around,but she couldnt help but start to feel the excitement .

Chapter 8: Preparation
"So, tommorrow night we will leave then." Zhuni whispered as Jahbril continued massaging her neck, and planting small kisses on her cheeks and forhead. " we need to get home before its too late and discuss this with the children,"She said wistlfully,not wanting to pull herself away from this man, but knowing she had too. Zhuni turned to face him. " Jahbril, for no reason other than my soul telling me you are true and real,will I, or would I ever uproot my family for someone I just met 2 days ago.
But I know you...and I know this is real,and for that reason I know the children will understand."

As they left the park hand in hand, ZHuni felt a strange sensation,like small prickles going up her spine,Jahbril must have felt it too because at that moment, he looked at Zhuni and they both started running towards her house.
Once they were closer to Zhuni's street they heard sirens and Her heart dropped as she saw Yaya holding Zhane sitting on the side walk talking to a police officer. "What happend!" ZHuni and Jahbril yelled at the same time.
"Mommy! Zhane yelled as she peeled herself out of her brothers
firm grasp, and ran over to Jahbril...strangley,ZHane didnt run to her mother first. "Ma, Some one tried to break in the house again"! Yaya shouted.."Ma'am", the officer standing next to her said." We need to ask you a few  questions before we go" Zhuni looked at Jahbril before walking away with the officer,"this is the 2nd time in a week that my house has been robbed!" she sniffled..." I know ma'am, that why we need to ask you a few questions..after what seemed like an eternity she was finaly finished with Officer Brandt. His final suggestion for Zhuni and her children was simply to move out. There neighborhood had been taken over by several gangs, and it just wasnt safe anymore.

By the end of the night everyone was exhausted, but conversation about the day ahead still needed to be discussed. " Yaya is Zhane sleeping?" Zhuni called to him softly. "Yeah Ma, she just got to sleep". I dont know why that girl has to have a story EVERY night, before she goes to sleep." "Come talk to us son"  Zhunie said. As Yaya sat on the floor next to his mother,Jahbril began to share the revelations that he had shared with Zhuni only hours before...and he saw that his mother was calm and peaceful as Jabril explained the best way he could about what had been happening..and about what was soon to come. "I.. knew something was diffrent about him Mom," Yaya said as if he were dreaming. "I didnt want to like him.. but the more I saw him with you ... its like the more I knew... He was the one for you Ma...Jahbril is the one for us."
All Zhuni could do was let the tears she had been holding back all night finally fall.  As Jahbril rubbed her back and went to have a more private talk with Yaya she went to the kitchen and made some tea.Shaking her head... she could scarsely believe this was happening to her...Snow white couldnt have had it any better!
"Well, what were you two talking about back there?" Zhuni asked as Jahbril hugged Yaya and watched him walk to his room." I talked to him about helping me to take care of and protect his family, and I asked him, If it was alright for me to stay the night with you all." " Really?!" Zhuni gushed, she couldnt believe they had THAT kind of conversation! " Yes. and he said I could stay forever if I wanted too, he and I have a kindred spirit,and much to share as time goes by."

With that being said, Jahbril turned Zhuni toward him, and held her face as he gave her the most passionate kiss she had ever experienced. Tracing the curve of her shoulders, and cupping her face it felt like he was trying to teach her a new language the way he sucked on her tongue when they kissed.  

"Zhuni ached for Jabril to touch her. It seemed like every place that man put his hands on her body, it left searing heat streaks that only served to make her want him more.
But he would not allow himself ... or her to succumb to the passion that was building inside of them." When we reach our true home, and have our ceremony, then and only then will I touch you,then and only then will I know you ...Intimately."  

For as badly as Zhuni wanted this man ... right then and there. She could only nod her head, and accept that he was going to honor her in every way ...Like a good man would.

As she fell asleep in his arms Zhane woke up and came into her room.. she crawled into bed with the both of them and slept right between them without skipping a beat.All Zhuni could do was stare into his eyes as he held her and her child. "I am already in Love with you" she whispered "And I have always loved you... I never stopped my Queen" He whispered back, as he kissed her one last time before drifted off to sleep himself.

Chapter 9: Goodbyes& New Beginnings

The following day,Zhuni called Mr.FLorez,and invited him over. along with Khandee, and her husband. It was Sunday,so ZHuni cooked a fabulous Brunch of Waldorf salad, Smoked Salmon and white wine. with home made icecream for desert.

"This is a feast girl!" Khandee screeched as she popped another walnut from the salad in her mouth."You have outdone yourself for real!" Khandee's husband said, while shoveling more Salmon onto his plate.. you would think the man had'nt eaten in weeks.
But then again..Khandee wasnt much of a cook.

After the luscious meal, Zhuni and Jahbril gathered everyone together and shared there news!
Diallo had known this day would come... and he knew it would be soon. He smiled and silently held back tears as Zhuni approached him " Mr. Florez, I have you to thank for this I know, Jahbril told me all about your prayers for me.. and how he came here."

Khandee and her Husband had a little bit more of a difficult time handling the story.."WHat! You're going where? Tonight? h My God! this is crazy!!" Are you serious Zhuni?" Khandee said incredulously. " Yes... we are Zhuni said, with a chuckle almost busting out of her. " Khandee, you are my oldest and dearest friend... Next To Mr. Florez.., so you know that I would never do something like this if I wasnt sure...as sure as I could be about this." " I know..Khandee said," But Im gonna miss you sooo much!" "Hey Jahbril.. what kinda frequent flyer miles can we get to come and visit you guys?"Jahbril smiled and laughed..But Khandee was serious.."Uhm Okay shall I ask the question again, or did you think you were just gonna whisk in here on your flying comet and take my friend and her family away and we NEVER get to  see her again?!"  at this Jahbril looked at Diallo, and back at Khandee, "Well,there is a way." Jahbril started , but the next window wont be for quite some time... "There are ways of communicating that reach through space and time Khandee" Diallo said with a twinkle in his eye. Khandee was some what sufficed by this answer. but before she could ask another question Zhuni informed everyone that they needed to prepare for ther departure, and to let them know that they would call everyone again right before they left.
Yaya was almost relieved to be leaving..there was nothing in this place but bad memories for him.. he was definately ready to start a new life with his sister and Mother...and Jahbril.
Now...what happens next...is another story all together.
