Please don't leave
Talin leaves her room, with only her phone.
----
"Talin! Talin!" A voice shouts.
-
Talin turns to the voice.
-
"I've been looking all over for you." Shuri, T'Challa's little sister smiles. "You must've turned off, your kimoyo beads."
Talin smiles, hoping Shuri won’t notice anything off.
--
“Talin…” Shuri’s smile fades.
"Shuri, please don't tell-"
-
"I'll miss you." Shuri frowns, her eyes tearing up.
"I'll miss you too, Princess Shuri." Talin sighs.
-
"When... Will you return?" Shuri asks.
"I don't know yet. I can't continue this... I feel like, I'm a Tiger trapped among Panthers.
--
“You know you would’ve made-”
“No Shuri, I wouldn’t. I think your brother realizes that as well.” Talin shakes her head.
“He’d be a fool, and a terrible King if he did!” Shuri snaps.
“That’s why I admire you Shuri.” Talin smiles, as she hugs Shuri.
----
“Please don’t go.” Shuri whispers.
“I have to, I’m sorry.” Talin sighs.
-
“Promise you won’t forget me?” Shuri smiles sheepishly.
“Shuri…” Talin sighs, as she tries not to cry.
-
Shuri looks up at Talin.
-
“I promise.” Talin nods. “I have to go now.”
-
Shuri nods.
--
“I’m sorry.” Talin whispers.
-
Shuri watches Talin leave.
