The journey from the city to the village was exceedingly smooth. Throughout the trip, Nkem bombarded his mom with questions, which almost irritated her.
Nkem's intelligence is undeniable; even his teachers tread carefully when they respond to his queries due to his sharpness.
"Why does a child of his age seek to understand nearly everything?" Mma wondered silently while attempting to devise an answer to his latest question.
"Nkem, can't you see I'm driving? I will address your question once we arrive at the village," she said, using it as a pretext. Although Mma is bright, Nkem's wisdom and high IQ set him apart.
As they neared their village, a group of youths who remembered Mma's car from her previous visit began to chant, "Welcome our Princess, Welcome our Princess."
"Mom, they're calling you Princess," Nkem observed, curious about the reason behind it.
"Yes, I am and so are you, Prince Nkem, because Dad is going to be crowned King in the next eight market days," she explained.
Overjoyed, Nkem responded, "Mom, that means I will become King in the future. I've always dreamed of becoming a leader, just like King Charles."
"Nkem, you talk too much. Could you be quiet just this once? Besides, I envision your future as a medical doctor," Mma countered.
At this, Nkem's expression soured as he thought to himself, "I don't want to be a doctor."
Upon arriving home, Mma was greeted by some villagers who joyfully welcomed her with the words, "Welcome, my princess."
Mma's mother was overjoyed to finally reunite with her grandchild after a lengthy anticipation.
Ecstatic, she exclaimed, "Wow, good to see you, my son. Come and give grandma a hug," unable to contain her excitement.
The villagers respectfully greeted, "Greetings, My Queen."
Discontented with the oversight, Mma's mother voiced, "Didn't you notice my grandchild? Is he not mature enough to warrant a greeting?"
Quickly remedying the situation, the villagers corrected themselves, "We apologize, my queen. Greetings, My Prince," extending their respect to Nkem.
