In The Wild...

Deep in the wilds of Texas Arizonian border, two girls felt a new thrill pass through them that morning. Their father, the head of the Cherokee clan was going to offer them the position of the next Chief of the clan.

The hut was made of straws and mud. Dimly lit. Three females could be seen preparing for some big event. Two of the younger female's face shown with excitement. But the elder one seemed a bit unsure. She was helping the younger ones to get ready.

"You both need to prove yourselves that you both are worthy of the position of the Chief." said their mom Ataza thoughtfully putting the red feathers in the long dark hair of Teja.

"Mother don't worry we will not let you & father down." answered Teva combing through her dark hair.

"Well you both are the first female clan chiefs in our history. So understand the importance. I was me who provoked your father to choose you both as the chiefs. He wanted to choose some worthy boy from the clan." reminded Ataza.

"Well he doesn't have to take that pain when we are there. As his daughters we are the rightful owners of the position not any another mere boy from the clan." said Teja with confidence.

"If we don't secure the position then it will be a disgrace to you both only. People from around the clan will say that you both have not been able to raise up worthy clan chiefs for the future." pointed out Teva.

Ataza sighed. She knew that her daughters are as strong as a tree, as hard as a rock, as wise as a owl & as enthusiastic as a teenager. But they had never taken up such a huge responsibility as this before. Were they ready? Many of the clan members didn't favour her decision. They all were used to a male chief. One slight mistake by the girls and the whole clan would be against them. But from no side were her daughters less than boys. In fact they were better. Then why this unfavourable attitude??

Ataza didn't know the answer.
