College Village 9

*in real life Jenny failed her N1 and she's basing this chapter on it*

Jenny was told that her results were out at college and decided to go and check them out, she failed three subjects, her heart sunk as soon as she found out. So disappointed as she wished God had really answered her prayers but didn't do any justice to what Jenny always prayed for and took His Word seriously to mind. It felt like all her prayers were gone to waste, she now wasn't thinking about the results but was thinking about the number of times she put her faith in God's hands, "if He didn't feel like I was doing a good job at raving His Power and Wisdom to people like Jenny did, why is Jenny being punished for the wrong reasons? She just wanted to pass and help on, was that too much to ask for? How is his Love to Jenny working? Why is He doing such to her, it's for the 3rd important time, 1st was failing at an expensive Institution, 2ndly was at an interview and now this? If He says He loves her, Why isn't He granting her the most important skill she always prayed for? Jenny loved and worshipped the Lord with all she had but didn't know how to approach most people about serving as a messenger of God. The embarrassing part is being seen as a failure than someone who's committed,  I Guess that's what God wanted, no matter how many times she takes, going extra miles to getting what she wants but yet God fails to grant her a simple wish for her hard work. What does He want her to do actually? What did she miss that made Him not to budge on His Royal seat? I'm not insulting Him, I want to know Why he is putting me in such Hardship for no reason over these years? 1000 Questions yet No answer to the reason of failure. --------------

Jenny decided to take a trip to the far end of Botswana where troubles just fade away as the sandy bands drift with the wind, easter holidays are here and decides to take a 2 day from Thursday to next week Wednesday. Since she's single and failure now wasn't really what she expected. She found a brochure of one lodge out of thousands a lodge called Ngoma lodge located in the northern part of Botswana very beautiful

Very stunning views so she just packed and left, though she was followed by a familiar car, she wished it was her birthday, she drove to the botswana border, straight to Gaborone airport, left her car there and out she went, less than a few hours later she arrived,  she wasn't disappointed at all but it looked classier in the pictures than in real, she settled for it and went in, since it's family holidays she wasn't really in any family mood nor friends.  Her trip included a game drive plus her room had a private mini garden,  she was glad that she didn't opt for the drive.

2nd day at the lodge.
Jenny woke up, took morning pictures, went to take a bath and then go eat breakfast. As she walked to the breakfast table, plated, poured coffee and chose a quiet corner to eat her breakfast in peace. After she was done, she poured another cup of coffee and went to sit in her private garden patio, she sat down and let her mind loose...,
"Beautiful view isn't it?"
Jenny looked up to find one man staring at her few metres away,  yeah it is,  she replied.
I saw you eating breakfast alone so I'm assuming you here alone?
Jenny : Yes I am.
Jenny stood up to go open for house keeping.
House keeper: I brought in fire made bread accompanied by three flavours of juice.
Jenny : I never ordered anything, you sure you in the right chalet?
House keeper: Yes Mam', do not worry its courtesy of the Manager.
Jenny : Manager?? Ok thank you
House keeper: I'm also here to change your towels and duvet sets.
Jenny then left her to do that and went to sit back at the patio to find the guy gone. She later went out to take pictures and go for a walk.
As she took a stroll next to the river bank to the nearest shop about a km away, only a few metres away from the lodge gate there came a Man, Muscular and in casual,
Excuse me, hey lady, where are you going by foot?, he asked.
Jenny : I'm going for a walk.
Mam' its not safe please let me call the maxi to take you or I can walk with you.
Jenny : I said I'll be fine.
He then screamed, Gaone!  I'll be back.
Jenny kept walking, the guy ran to catch up with her. Jenny wouldn't budge and kept quiet for a while. I'm Lethabo by the way he said,
May I know yours?
Jenny : Jeanette, Jenny
Lethabo: I'm glad we met Jenny, how's your stay here at Ngoma lodge?
Jenny : It's peaceful, very wonderful, I enjoy it.
Lethabo: I see.
Jenny : Are you here alone?
Lethabo: You can say so, I'm with my mother actually.
Jenny : That's lovely, uhmm... here's the shop I wanted to buy from.
They got in and bought some traditional skirts and dresses and bought juice for the way...
Lethabo : So Jenny I know you tswana but your English is very good.
Jenny : Thank you.
Lethabo : Look I'd like to invite you to dinner with my mum  if you don't mind?
Jenny : Oh ok only if there's no greens, onions nor tomatoes.
Lethabo :*laughs * There won't be, how does in the evening sound?
Jenny : It's perfect
Lethabo : Good, I Shall send someone to fetch you  for directions.
Along the road Jenny and Lethabo laughed all the way and might have enjoyed each others company

Evening

Jenny wore an evening dress and was escorted by one of the keepers to the dining area, she thought it was a private dinner but it was semi private, all the noble people around botswana were there, it was a private dinner hosted in a public area event, Jenny felt out sided when Lethabo saw her by the balcony alone with a glass of champagne  in her hand,
...You look ravishing,  he said.
Jenny thanked him and told him that he won't be staying for long due to feeling left out, with that said the Princess approached them and drooled over Lethabo when his mother came to see what is happening, he introduced the princess and then Jenny, he told his mother about Jenny and they shook hands, as the feast began, the seat allocations were done, to find that Lethabo and Jenny were paired next to each other and the Princess was not allocated a seat but her helper was allocated one, this was all Lethabo's fault as he laughed about it, Jenny then gave up her chair For her to sit, she wasn't even thankful as Jenny stood up went to Lethabo's mother to thank her for the invite, everybody was angry that anyone gave up their chair for a rude rich person, she then kissed his mother on the cheek and left, as she was walking towards the elevator she could hear people arguing about how rude the Princess is, she got in the elevator and went down.
