CHAPTER 1.

This day is not suppose to be like this.

What is suppose to be the happiest day of
my parents lives has turned out to be the
worst. Just a week before my sister's "so
called wedding" must take place she left a
letter stating that she's not pregnant for the
man she has to marry she doesn't love him
and she has eloped to marry the father of
her child. We don't know where she is and
everyone has been calling her but her
phone is switched off but I think she
changed her numbers.

My mom has been crying non stop all week

and dad being him has been roaring like a
caged lion because he can be pretty strict
sometimes....who am I kidding most of the
time so this behavior from my sister shook
everyone mostly my parents coz she's the
apple of their eyes. So today is the day
where the negotiations must conclude and
everyone is on edge coz we don't know
what my dad is going to tell her fiance's
family.

I'm 25 and I'm the second born of Thuli and
sipho mazibuko. My elder sister is nobuhle
mazibuko she's 30 the one who ran away
and then our little brother thami mazibuko
who's 20. My dad is 57 mom is 50 and we
live comfortably and we not rich or poor.
We live in Mpumalanga province
Standerton.

My dad is a correctional officer at the

Department of Correctional Services. Mom
is a teacher at a primary school and my
older sister was or is working in Joburg for
some law firm as registry clerk and I work
as a secretary for some real estate
company and my brother is studying civil
engineering at TUT.

I know why you're wondering why I'm not

living at my own place as I'm 25 well I tried
but dad refused when I told him and he said
I'll leave this house the day I get married. I
think it's because he wanted to control me.
They provide us with everything we need
but it has never been a secret that nobuhle
is their favourite child. So you can imagine
the shock they felt when they read that
letter.

My brother found it came to my room and

we read it before we took it to them. Dad
has been been mum about it the whole
week thinking buhle will show up before the
week ends but she didn't so he had no
choice but to call our uncles and tell them
what happend.

CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 1.

My uncles and dad have been discussing a

way forward since they arrived in the
morning because today my sister's in-laws
are coming to finalise the Amalobo
negotiations. I know the in-laws of my sister
are rich and so is her fiancee. I have never
seen him or heard of him but maybe my
parents do but I'm not sure because my
sister came home one day and announced
that there's a man who wants to marry her
he's rich and hearing that my dad's ears
started ringing and he agreed to start the
lobola negotiations as soon as possible.

Mom told anyone and everyone that her

daughter is going to marry a rich man from
Joburg who lives in Sandton. She was so
excited and started to interview people
who'll do the catering and decor because
her princess deserves only the best. She's
in her bedroom right now because she said
she thinks she's going to have a heart
attack.

We're in the kitchen and it's me my cousin

simphiwe I call her Sims then her mom who
is my aunt. The mood is sour and it's like
someone has died and we're preparing for
a funeral.

Sims: " Luh "

Me: " Sim" I look at her as I'm busy gratting

the carrots

Sims:" Buhle really ran away? "

Me:" You heard it yourself when dad read

the letter again to everyone "
Sims:" She has always been selfish look at
what she did"

Me:" Shh... You dont want mommy dearest

to her you say that"

Sims:" Oh It serves them right"

Me:" Obviously " We both giggle and mom

enters the kitchen while we're giggling.

Mom:" You are all laughing because what is

happening is funny? what are you laughing
at? " She asks angrily

Sims:" So we must not laugh now because

buhle ran our away? it's not our fault aunt
that she did yohn"

Mom:" Shut up simphiwe!

Sponsored
you are all so jealous of her. You knew that
in this family she's the only one who'll be
more successful in anything more than all
of you" She looks at me when she says
those words. Sometimes I wonder and ask
myself why does my mother hate me so
much. I keep quite look down and continue
what I'm doing.

Sims:" Yeah right she got successful by

getting pregnant for another man " She
says rolls her eyes

Me:" Sim please don't say anything "

Sims:" Aunt shouldn't say that. We'll also be

successful so when she says that it's like
she's putting a curse on us "

Mom:" That's why you have 2 kids with

different fathers it's that big mouth of yours
that you open like your legs. Where are
their fathers hmm? you see what I
mean...jealousy" That shuts sims up and
she tears up. Mom leaves the kitchen and
my aunts don't say anything they just keep
quiet because they scared of her.

Me:" I'm sorry sims you know how mom can

be"

Sims:" It's okay sis and she is right. Me and

my big mouth don't know when to shut it" I
hug her and we continue to cook in silence.
We can hear there's a disagreement in the
living room about something and then my
uncle who's dads younger brother says "
This is wrong sipho" Then at that moment
we hear cars hooting outside and the whole
house goes dead quiet.

CHAPTER 2.

Dad:" Why is everyone still in the kitchen
did you not hear the cars hooting outside?
go outside and welcome them" We all go
outside and start ululating making happy
noise. My mom is in her bedroom sleeping I
think
Sponsored
I don't know if she's allowed to be outside
and shame I feel very sorry for her but
there's nothing I can do to make her feel
better. Sims and I leave our aunts outside
and other cousins and we go to the kitchen
to prepare refreshments for the elders.

Sims:" I wonder what's going to happen

after they find out that buhle is gone"

Me:" I think they'll just ask for their money

back and leave..... I mean there's nothing
they can do".

Sims:" I hope so sis"

We finish preparing drinks and snacks then
leave them on the table for our aunts to
take them to the living where everyone is
sitted then we go to sit in my bedroom and
my brother enters and closes the door
behind him.

Thami:" Guys why are you sitting here it's

so hot you should be outside under the tree
shade"

Me:" It's also hot outside thami yoh and

where were you because I haven't seen you
since the morning."

Him:" I went to see my friends couldn't

stand the tension in the house"

Sims:" Buhle and her drama one day she's

going to regret what she did"
Him:" I doubt the spoiled princess will regret
it " We all laugh.

Me:" Let's take a walk and go to the shops

it's not like we're needed here"

Thami:" Yeah plus maybe we'll buy 12

savanah and hide them then we'll drink
them here in your room luh "
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 2.

Me:" I'll buy them but they shouldn't see us"

I take my R300 on my purse then comb my
afro then look at my long sleeve orange
maxi dress and I look good then we leave.

Thami:" Aw my beautiful yellow bone sister

if only it was you getting married I would
been on top of the world right now really
happy! "
Me:" Ugh please I need a boyfriend first
then all of that will come later" We laugh

Thami:" what happened to Paul I thought

you liked him? "

Me:" He got tired of me becausecause you

know how dad is and so he couldn't deal
with it"

Thami:" He didn't deserve you and it's his

loss" He puts his arm around my shoulder
and the other around sims shoulder we
continue to walk.

Me:" Ncooh thanks lil bro" I pinch his cheek

he smacks my hand off and we laugh.

Thami:" I'm taller than you so I'm your big

brother " I roll my eyes.

The cars outside our yard they are huge

SUVs all in black color yoh I have never
seen such huge cars. We pass them then
go straight down the road to the shops.
We are laughing making jokes and as
we're walking there's this huge Porsche car
maroon matte in colour and it looks
absolutely beautiful and out of place
because it is just standing there on it's
own.

The windows are tinted and you can't see

inside but you can make out the figures in
the car. When thami sees the car he makes
all kinds noise praising the car and talking
about all the stuff it has and does blah blah
blah and we laugh at him. As we pass the
car about few minutes there's this thing that
tells me to look back and I do and see the
window of the car we have passed has
been rolled down. Someone has opened it
and it feels like they watching us and it
freaks me out.
Me:" Guys maybe we should go back home
I don't feel safe"

Thami:" What's wrong luh? "

Me:" I don't know there's this weird feeling

like something bad is going to happen and
it's scaring me "

Thami:" Why don't you guys go back and I'll

go buy the stuff. Stay in your room and I'll
find you guys there". He kisses my
forehead then leaves and we head back.

We pass that car again and I try to look

inside but it's dark. We get home
Sponsored
go to my room and we can hear the families
arguing and it doesn't sound good at all.

Sims:" I think the in-laws have been told

that their bride is M.I.A" She laughs but I
just shrug my shoulders.
Me:" Cousin I have this feeling at the pit of
my stomach that something bad is going to
happen "

Sims:" Don't worry sis the only thing bad

that happens is gone and so we don't have
to worry. They'll take their money and go.
Simple as that " She claps her hands.

Me:" I hope you are right sis " Right then my

aunts come followed by my dad and one of
them is crying.

Me:" Ncane what's wrong?"

Dad:" Both of you take these blankets and

cover yourselfs and follow your aunt "

Me:" Dad what's going on you're scarring

me? "

Dad:" Do as I say Lungi now!"

Sims:" Mama what's going on?"

Her:" I'm sorry Lungi I really am" She takes

the big blankets and cover me with it and
does the same to sims and we're just
standing there dumbfounded not really
understanding what's going on.

She takes my hand and gives it to sims and

we hold hands and she takes mine to hers.

Her:"follow me" She leaves I'm in the

middle and sims is behind me. We follow
her to the living room and it gets quiet and I
finally realise what is about to happen and
my heart drops..... No! God don't let it be
please!.... Show me that I'm wrong.

Tears fall down on my face behind the

blanket and I wipe them off because I know
if dad sees them he'll be mad at me. They
sit us down then I hear my uncle talk.
Uncle:" We hear your demands and it is the
right thing to do. These are also the other
beautiful flowers you can choose to replace
the one who disappointed all of us. Any of
them would make a beautiful daughter in-
law." Oh my God it is really happening. My
dad and uncles have decided that one of us
is going to replace ubuhle how can they do
this to us?. My tears won't stop falling

Someone:"we have another request here "

Uncle:" talk"

Someone:" Since your daughter has

shamed us and disrespected our son we
want him to choose for himself who will
replace your daughter " huh? what?

Dad:" But we haven't finished other

matters" My dad says angrily
Someone:" That will follow after but for now
we want our son to come and choose for
himself "

Dad:" Fine. Tell him to come! ". The person

leaves to go call my sister❤s fiancee. I
move my hand under the blanket and
search for sims hand and I find it and hold it
for dear life. I hear my uncle whisper next to
me

Uncle:" I'm sorry my daughter but I know

he's going to choose you". This time I don't
try to hold back that I'm crying and I just let
it all out.

Dad:" Don't you dare embarrasse me like

your sister. Do you hear me Lungi? " I keep
quiet

Dad:" Do you hear me Lungi? "

Me:"ye... Yes dad"

Dad:" Wipe those damn tears off " I do as
he says but they continue to still fall.

The atmosphere changes when they get in.

I haven't seen him but I feel him his
presence and aura is too strong yoh I fell
goosebumps covering my whole body and I
shiver. I grip sims hand much harder then I
hear her winces I loosen my grip.

He is sitting down somewhere on my left I

think because I can feel his eyes on the left
side of my head like he can see me through
the blanket.

Uncle:" MaMtshali come on this side so you

can take off the blankets off their heads so
son in-law can choose who he wants" I hear
my aunt approaching

Person:" Cha" (No) the room goes quiet

and I hold my breath thinking he doesn't
want any of us and this and I cross my
fingers and pray that I'm right.

Uncle:" What do you mean no? "

Him:" Ngikhetha lona " ( I choose her). I

don't know if he pointed at sims or me and I
just hope it's sims hw chose.

Uncle:" Ok son maMtshali lift off the blanket

so he can see her "

Him:" I'll do it myself " His voice is not to

deep but it's scary. I feel like I'm going to
pass out. I feel sims letting go of my hand
and standing up and I breathe out deeply
and I'm about to thank God that he didn't
choose me when I feel the blanket being
taken off my head and I close my eyes not
wanting to open them because I know I'm
going to see the man who has just turned
my life upside down.
Him:" Lungi" He says and I fall apart.

CHAPTER 3.

Me:" No.... No dad please don't to this!" I'm

crying

Him:" Look at me!" He says with so much

authority that I open my eyes and lift my
head to look at him and see that he is
standing and my face is on the same level
with his crotch. If I were to kneel in front of
him his crotch would be right on my face. I
don't look at him I just look down again
kneeling then make my way to my dad.

Me:" Baba...I don't want to marry my sister's

fiancee please dad I'm begging you I don't
want to! ". I don't care that I'm creating
drama but there's no way I'm going to marry
a man I don't know even love and worse a
man who loves my sister and has slept with
her.

Dad:" Stop being dramatic. We have

concluded the negotiations and you will
step in for your sister and marry into this
family it is tradition and it has always been
done. You and your husband will grow the
Gumede family tree with many children. Do
you hear me lungi? " I shake my head no
looking at him straight in his eyez . I know
doing this is very disrespectful and in front
of people because it would seem that I do
not respect him as my father and the head
of the whole family.

Dad:" Oh so you are disrespecting me in

front of people your in-laws!. You want
them to say I didn't raise you with values
morals and respect?."

Me:" Kodwa baba anina ndaba ukuth mina

ngifunani why ningaba buyiseli imali yabo
babuyele emuva la baqhamuka khona?" (
but dad you all don't care about what I
want. Why don't you give them their money
back so they can go back to where they
come from?).

My dad stands up and slaps me across the

face so hard I see stars. I cover my face
shocked not believing that my dad has
landed his hands on me like that.

Dad:" I tell you what to do and you want to

tell me what I must do who's the parent
here? " He tries to slap me again but my
uncle stops him.

Uncle:" Bafo stop. She is still in shock

because she didn't know that this was going
to happen. Lungi my child....." he comes
and crouches down next to me and holds
my face and wipes my tears and I hug him
crying my lungs out.
uncle:" .....shhhh don't cry my child. it's
tradition arranged marriages have been
done since the time of our ancestors accept
your husband. He will love you and you will
learn to love him too. He will take care of
you treat you like a queen that you are. The
Gumede's will love you once they get to
know what an amazing young woman you
are." I bury my face on his chest and he
holds me tighter.

uncle:" I know this is very hard to accept but

please do and I promise you you won't
regret it. You are our only hope and I have
put my faith in you so please don't
disappoint us you hear me Luh? ".

It's days like these I wish my father was the

one holding me like this and saying all
these things but I know that will never
happen. It will be always be wishful thinking
and I hope my uncle is right that I won't
regret it.
me:" yes uncle I hear you. I agree to marry
him and I promise I won't disappoint you". I
hear someone ululating and then everyone
on the house is happy I think excluding me.

My uncle kissea my forehead and stands

me up and all the while my 'husband ' to be
has been silent and watching the whole
thing and I'm now embarrassed that he had
to witness everything. My aunt takes me
back to my bedroom and when we pass the
kitchen everyone goes silent. I get to my
bedroom and I find my brother and sims
there. She closes the door and I just stand
there numb my mind going through 1000
directions.

I slide down the door and sit on the floor

head on my knees and arms around my
legs. Sims comes and hugs me and my
brother too and I let it all out. They don't say
anything and just hold me. I'm thankful that
I have them in my life because without them
I wouldn't know what to do right now.

Thami:" we got you luh...us against the

world the three musketeers"

Sims:" he's marrying us too you know

because we're a package. You can't marry
one without the others" I giggle

Thami:" Ew sims I'm not gay but yeah we're

a package buy one get two free " we laugh

Thami:" in this case he bought one and got

3 for free....lucky son of a gun" I laugh loud
through the tears and thinking what have I
gotten myself into. someone tries to open
the door and we get up it opens and it's my
mother.

Mom:" you got what you wanted heh?....my

daughter's life. I always knew you were
jealous of her but this is too much. you are
going to live the life she was meant to live?
" I have seen her angry but this is
something else and why is she still blaming
me for her daughters behaviour?.

Thami:" mama this is not right!

it opens and it's my mother.

Mom:" you got what you wanted heh?....my

daughter's life. I always knew you were
jealous of her but this is too much. you are
going to live the life she was meant to live?
" I have seen her angry but this is
something else and why is she still blaming

Thami:" mama this is not right! buhle left on

her own and ran away so why are you
blaming luh?" he asks her getting annoyed

Mom:" shut up I'm not talking to you "

Me:" why do you hate me so much mama
what did I ever do to you because you are
all now punishing me for something I didn't
do? "

Mom:" you are the biggest mistake of my

life lungi and I wish you were never born " I
feel like I've been cut into tiny pieces by a
very sharp knife and tears that were starting
to dry up fall down again.

sims:" nooo aunty...why ukhohlakale

kanjena? ". ( nooo aunty why are you this
wicked? " she says with tears on her eyes

Thami:" it's better that luh is getting married

so she won't experience this abuse from
you and dad. If it were up to me she would
leave this hell whole we call a home tonight
with her husband". mom clicks her
tongue and leaves banging the door
behind her.
Me:" Can you guys leave I'd like to be alone
"

Sims:" no luh we won't leave you alone" I sit

on my bed and I feel my eyes getting heavy
because of this headache that I'm suddenly
having.

Thami:" Sims can you give us a few

minutes alone? "

Sims:" sure. I love you lungi and you are

the best sister I've ever had and I'm here for
you anytime " we hug and she leaves.

Thami:" let's take this off it looks like it's

giving you a headache " he takes off my
head wrap

Me:" you know...sometimes I think that I'm

adopted because why would mom and dad
hate me so much? "
Thami:" I used to think it too because you
don't look like us you have this huge soft
curly afro and plus you're a yellow bone" he
smiles

Me:" you said used to so what changed?"

Thami:" uncle loves you luh like you're his

daughter and he calls you 'Luh kababa'. I
think maybe mom had an affair with uncle
then she fell pregnant with you? " uhh hold
up what is my brother saying?

Me:" maybe but mom?....no!. she loves dad

too much to do that to him"

Thami:" we should ask uncle one day I

know he'll tell us the truth"

Me:" thank you bro I don't know what I

would do without you"
Thami:" good thing I'm here and we won't
get to find out. married or not I'll always be
there for you" we hug.

Thami:" lungi if you don't want to do it then

don't. I'll help you run away I have some
money saved up and you can go to cape
town or anywhere where they wont find
you" I know he'll do that for me.

Me:" I know you mean well thami but I

made a promise to dad and uncle that I
won't disappoint them. If anything I don't
want to disappoint uncle at all"

Thami:" I knew you were going to say that

and this is why I want to say this to you.
Marry him be happy and make his life a
living hell and the best one. He chose you
for a reason he could have chosen
usimphiwe but he didn't so that means he
saw something good in you and he wants it
and you in his life. maybe it's fate that made
things to happen like this. love him and
make him really happy so much that he'll
forget that there were other women before
you especially our sister"

Me:" but how do I do that. I don't even know

him his name or what he likes and he slept
with our sister thami!...how do I even begin
to do that with him knowing he did that with
our sister? "

Thami:" eish that is hard but you are a

woman....you'll know what to do. Look don't
stress about that now you'll cross that
bridge when you get to it "

Me:" Only if it were that easy thami "

Thami:" I'm sorry about what mom said.

She should be happy and not taking out her
anger and stress on you promise me that
you'll be happy with Mbuso and if he does
anything to hurt you let me know okay? "
Me:" wait how do you know his name?"

Thami:" Because I met him the first time

they were here"

Me:" ok I promise I'll tell you. So this is

it....i'm getting married to Mbuso Gumede I
wonder when? "

Thami:" you want me to show you his

picture?"

Me:" where did you get it?"

Thami:" outside when he was entering the

yard he' is tense"

Me:" yeah I felt it too " then we hear

everyone in the house shouting clapping
and ululating car hooters going on and off.
Me:" here goes my life....I guess they are
done" I tear up

Thami:" let me go outside and see" I nod he

leaves and I lay down on the bed and close
my eyes. I must have fallen asleep because
I feel sims shaking me and her mom smiling
looking at me with my other aunt.

Sims:" it's done...come now so you can help

us dishi the food "

aunt:" I know everything went totally

different and we weren't expecting it will
end like this but I'm glad it's you luh who's
going to get married " she kisses my cheek
then hugs me. Everyone seems happy but
not me and definitely not my parents.

Simsmom:" go wash your face and hold

your head high when you get into the
kitchen so you can dish up for your
husband "I almost roll my eyes
Me:" thank you aunty" they leave us and we
go to the bathroom and I wash my face.
She takes out her make up bag when I'm
done and I look at her.

Me:" no make up sis I want him to see me

looking like this so he knows that I'm not
happy at all "

Sims:" he's one lucky man to have you

sis because I know you're going to make
him really happy and I knew he was going
to choose you "

Me:" really sims and how did you know

that? " I roll my eyes

Sims:" don't roll your eyes at me young lady

" she says laughing

Sims:" well I knew coz he has been

watching you the first time they came here.
You didn't see him because aunt was buy
sending you up and down"

Me:" I never noticed but why would he

when he was going to marry buhle? "

Sims:" I don't know cousin but the way he

looked at you was different to how he
looked at buhle. With you there was hunger
and something else and with her when I
saw them talking last time he looked bored
annoyed and mostly angry at her" she
laughs

Me:" with buhle well never know the real

reason why they were together and wanting
to get married "

Sims:" I peeked at him when we were

sitting in the living room and his eyes were
on you the whole entire time" I snort and
shake my head.
Me:" let's go before your mom shouts at us
" I look at my face and I'm red. ears nose
cheeks my eyes red and puffy.

CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 3.

We go to the kitchen and we find mbuso's

aunt. When she sees me she smiles her
smile is warm and inviting and I can't help it
but smile a little. She comes to me and
holds my hands.

Mbuso'saunt:" I know I'm not your mom or

trying to take her place but I'm here for you
too lungi. I'm mbuso's aunt which means
I'm your aunt too now and I'm aunt Lwethu.
Let's go to the living so we can give you the
clothes you'll wear when you visit oGumede
come".

I follow her to the living room and everyone

is there excluding my mom and husband.
My aunt ululates when they see me and
start singing aunt lwethu sits me down the
mat and then puts a lovely light blanket on
my shoulders.

Auntlwethu:" Whenever we visit your house

or when you are going to visit any of the
Gumede households you must always have
this around your shoulders.... " Everyone
agrees and I nod

Auntlwethu:"this is a lovely head wrap

which from now on you'll use to cover that
beautiful hair of yours. Since you are a new
bride. You will always have these on you so
every man out there will know you are
taken you're someone's wife ". Everyone is
pretty happy saying things like I look
beautiful and I make a beautiful Makoti
hheh these people. I feel numb.... I'm numb.
After that she stands me up and we leave
the living room and go to the kitchen.
Sims:" Yoh mtase you look so beautiful " I
glare at her and she laughs

Auntlwethu:" Come your husband is waiting

for you. He wants to see you " She says
smiling and excited.

Me:" Aunt kmele siphake... " ( we have to

dish up)

Sims:" Go mtase I'll dish up" Sims hugs me

and I leave with aunt lwethu and I'm so
nervous

Me:" Does my dad know I'm going to him

now? "

Auntlwethu:" Don't worry he knows " I see

many people sitting in the garage drinking
and having fun. We pass them and go
outside the yard and she takes me to that
Porsche I saw earlier and stand outside the
door.
Her:" I'll send simphiwe to come and get
you when it's time. Use this time to get to
know him" I nod. Before she can open
the area door he opens it and climbs out.

Mbuso:" Thank you aunty for everything "

He says and hugs her then looks at me

Mbuso:" Ngena " (Get in) He says like he's

angry or annoyed God I don't know what's
going on now. Hearing that kind of tone just
shuts me down I get in the car and see
there's a driver.... Really he has someone
who drives him? Yoh!

Auntlwethu:" Walk me to the gate" She says

to mbuso he closes my door and they leave

Me:" Sawubona"( good afternoon)

Driver:" Yebo maGumede" ( hello Mrs

Gumede) then he keeps quiet no how are
you? or hello to you too? something else
but nothing yoh.

As I'm inside the car I can see clearly

outside and I see mbuso's aunt lwethu
talking like she's giving mbuso a lecture. I
wonder if it's about me or what. Maybe he
doesn't want this too and he was forced.....
God I'm gonna be stuck with a man who'll
hate me. My train of thought is disturbed
when he gets in the car. He breathes out
deeply then looks at me and I don't look at
him I just stare at the drivers head gripping
my hands tight.

Him:"drive there" There.... There where?

But I don't ask.

Mbuso:" You want some water? "

Me:" Yes please" I clear my voice because I

hate how weak and scared I sound right
now. He gives me a bottle of water I take
making sure I don't touch him and I drink all
of it.

Mbuso:" You must have been thirsty " He's

looking at me and I don't say anything

Mbuso:" Lungi. Look at me!" I turn and look

at him and I see he's a very handsome
wow. It's like God and his parents took time
to make him like they weren't in any hurry
but there's something scary about him.

Mbuso:" I know I'm ugly but can you at least

look at me I won't bite" Ugly who? nikka
please!

Me:" Where are we going? "

Mbuso:" Are you scared of me lungi? "

Ofcos I am but I shake my head no instead.
He puffs out shakes his head like he's
getting frustrated well so am I dude.
The car finally stops and I see we're at
some huge house in town. The opens and
he gets out first extends his hand for me to
take but I ignore it and get out. He smirks
and raises his left eyebrow like really you
ignored my gesture?.

Mbuso:" I'll call you when I need you. Feel

free to go anywhere " The driver nods and
gets in the car drives out and the gate
closes. He takes my hand I try to pull it off
but he holds it tight. We walk to the house
and enter through the sitting room then he
let's go of my hand and turns and locks the
door.

Mbuso:" I rented the house so don't worry

it's just the two of us" Like that makes me
feel at ease yoh

Mbuso:" Come let's to the bedroom " Oh my

God!. He already wants to sleep with me?
Me:" No. I'm not going there" I shake my
head furiously and he looks at me like he's
bored

Him:" It's either you come by choice or I

make you and you don't want that trust me".
My heart is beating so fast in my chest I feel
like I'm going to pass out and then my
headache starts aching again

Mbuso:" I'm waiting" He puts his hands on

his pockets and looks at me and I feel my
tears threatening to come out.

Mbuso:" I'm going upstairs don't make me

come and get you" He leaves me standing
there and I cry. Why did my sister have to
run away and why did my dad allow this to
happen? . I look upstairs then look at the
door we came in from and look upstairs
again and I make my decision.
Running away would have been a better
choice for me but I know it would have
gotten me into trouble with my dad and I
promised my uncle and him that I wouldn't
dissapoint them. I make my way up the
stairs and I see an open door and I get in
then I hear water running in the en suite
bathroom and I think maybe he's taking a
shower but I only see his jacket in the bed
and I stand there awkwardly not knowing if I
should sit on the bed or what but nope I'm
going to stand right here don't make me
come and get you" He leaves me standing
there and I cry. Why did my sister have to
run away and why did my dad allow this to
happen? . I look upstairs then look at the
door we came in from and look upstairs
again and I make my decision.

Running away would have been a better

choice for me but I know it would have
gotten me into trouble with my dad and I
promised my uncle and him that I wouldn't
dissapoint them. I make my way up the
stairs and I see an open door and I get in
then I hear water running in the en suite
bathroom and I think maybe he's taking a
shower but I only see his jacket in the bed
and I stand there awkwardly not knowing if I
should sit on the bed or what but nope I'm
going to stand right here there's no way I'm
sitting on that bed.

He comes out of the bathroom still wearing

his clothes but his shirt is bloody and he's
carrying a first aid kit on his left hand and
his right hand is bleeding and he's covering
it with a towel.

Me:" Oh my God what happened? " I rush

to him and take the first aid kit from him and
pull him back to the bathroom and then I
see he broke the vanity mirror... He
punched it. I look at him and he's looking at
me then I take his hand and pull of the
towel and see his hand is getting swollen. I
open the tap and test it the water is cold
then take the bloody hand and rinse off the
blood.

Me:" I don't see any glasses stuck.... Do

you feel like there's some still left? "

Him:" No " I take my hands and his bloody

one and feel if there's any glass there stuck
in his skin but I feel nothing then I wash it
off under the tap then take the towel and
dry it.

Me:" Sit here" He sits on top of the closed

toilet bowl then I kneel in front of him and
take the first Aid kit and do what my mom
taught me once like cleaning the wound
and disinfect it. I can feel his eyes on me
the whole entire time I even forgot that I
was crying when he wipes my tears off my
face with his other hand. I won't look at him
not when I feel this weak and vulnerable.
His hands are strong and big like his one
hand can cover both of mine.

Me:" Nothing is broken and the swelling will

go down. The cuts are not that deep they
won't need stitching but I have to cover it so
it won't be infected "

Him:" Do it" That's all he says and I do.

When I'm done I stand up

Me:" I'll go look for the broom to clean here"

I go before he even answers and I look
around the kitchen find the broom make my
way up again then find him sitting on the
bed. I sweep the glasses off go to the
kitchen and dump them in the bin and then I
stand there for what feels like forever
because I'm scared of going up there again.
I wipe my tears off and make my way there
again. I get in and stand next to the door
and he looks at me.
Him:" Come here" He says but not so
gently

Me:" Please..... " I beg him

Him:" For the last time lungi come here!"

This man scares me his authoritive voice
just him. My feet carry me to him and I
stand next to the bed then he looks at me.

Him:" Take off your shoes and get on bed"

My eyes get big like bugs eyes and I just
want to run out of here. He stands up so
fast I didn't see it coming and I fall flat on
my ass crying more because of my
embarrassment now. He takes off my
sandals one at a time then takes my hand
and help me up.

Him:" Get on the bed I'll be back" He goes

to the bathroom and I get my ass on that
bed then he comes back with a glass of
water and two pills.
Him:" Drink it's for the headache " I take
them and my hands are shaking and I'm
thinking what if he wants to drug me then
have his way with me?

Him:" I won't drug you just drink it" I take his

word and drink them after I'm done he takes
the glass and puts it on the dresser then
takes off shirt and his shoes and lays on the
bed and looks at me and I crawl to the
middle of the bed lay down facing away
from him.

My body is shaking and I can't sstop myself.

He drags my body close to his without any
warning and I let out a loud sob cover my
face and that sob turns into a whole lot of
ugly crying. I feel him trying to turn me to
face him but I refuse and I fight him. He's
stronger than me because he manages to
turn me and I keep hitting him with my fists
and legs but he puts his legs on top of mine
and cages me and holds me tight and I
fist his white t-shirt and bury my face on his
chest and just cry.

Him:" I'm sorry I know you don't want this"

Me:" Then why do it.... Let me go please I'm

not the one you wanted" He's the only who
can stop all of this charade

Him:" You're the one I want and I'm not

letting you go.... Ever" He says and I cry
hard.

Him:" Shhhh it's okay let it all out" He keeps

saying that over and over again until my
tears ssto falling only hiccups left.

I feel warm protected... Wow I love this

feeling coz it feels good and the arms that
are holding me are holding me tight like
they don't wanna let me go. This feels
amazing and hmmm soft it smells nice too. I
rub my face and I nip on that skin and it's
soft never had I ever had this kind of a
dream and I don't want to wake up. I don't
nip at it again but kiss it this time and I get a
tingly feeling all over my body and I sigh
when I feel something poking me in my
stomach and that feels too real not like a
dream. I move my hand towards that thing
poking me and I feel a hand stopping me
and then it dawns on me that I'm not having
a dream it's really happening and I freeze.

Him:" Open your eyes and look at me" I

shake my head no but he puts his finger
under my chin and moves it up then I feel
his breath on my face and I swallow then
open my eyes and see I'm face to face with
his mouth that is full and juicy and I lick my
lips.

Him:" Fuck don't do that" He says it like his

mouth is dry I lick them again... Damn what
am I doing... This is not me nope no ways
but it is me and I have no idea what I'm
doing.

Him:" You're playing with fire and you'll get

burned" His lips are close to mine and if I
just move my head up again a little our lips
would touch.

Me:" I'm not scared of fire " I tell him...

Haibo lungi. He buries his hand on my hair
and grips tight and I make the uh sound
because that hurt.

Him:" You don't know what you're talking

about "

Me:" But I know enough to know that you

want me" I point to his dick with my eyes

Him:" I'll break you"

Me:" I'm already broken. There's nothing
more left" The phone rings before he
answers me.

Him:" What?.. now?....why?.... Ok.... Yes"

He hangs up and looks at me
Him:" We have to go back" We get off the
bed and I go fix myself in the bathroom then
we leave the house and I see it's already
dark.

Me:" Is my dad mad? " I ask him and he

pulls me to him and I let him I don't know
why or maybe it's that moment we shared in
the house. I lay my head on his chest.

Him:" He won't you ever lay his hands on

you again youre mine now. " I breath out
but I'm still scared.

Me:" Will you hurt me? " I ask him looking

straight at his eyes
Him:"I won't intentionally hurt you. I promise
"

Me:" Thank you for not lying to me" Then he

decides to kiss me. Lightly and softly and I
gasp then he goes in and kisses me deeply
and I kiss him back and it feels amazing.
His lips are soft and his mouth is warm and
it does things to my body then suddenly the
door opens we break the kiss and my mom
is standing there with aunt lwethu and I turn
red all over my face.

Auntlwethu:" You've been gone for 4 hours

mbuso and I've been calling you! " She's
mad.

Mbuso:" We were sleeping and I didn't hear

the phone ring " He says it like it's not a big
deal and worse if all in front of my mom and
she gasps and if looks could kill I would be
dead right now.
CHAPTER 4.

Here I am at the court room with both my

parents younger brother and sister cousin
my uncle and his wife then Mbuso with his
parents and other family members. I can't
believe I'm getting married and never have I
ever thought that it will be in a court room
full of strangers and worse I'm getting
married to a man I've only met once I don't
know him and do not love.

Tears have been falling non stop since the

weekend because my mother blamed me
for buhle's disappearance and when Mbuso
said he didn't hear the phone because we
were " Sleeping " When mbuso and hi s
family left and I got into the house I was
met by a fist from my father when my mom
told her that I had already slept with
umbuso. They didn't even let me explain
what really happened and I still have a
black eye from my father.
When Mbuso and his family saw me they
were shocked. I tried to cover the bruise
but it wouldn't let me... Being a yellow bone
sucks sometimes. I wipe my face as the
judge is busy talking about marriage and all
you can feel in the atmosphere is tension.
Some of the people are happy but my
parents me and this man standing next to
me we are not. I can feel his anger hatred
and all of that is directed to me. I can't
believe my parents decided to sacrifice me
just so their precious name won't be
dragged through the mud.

Judge:" Please face each other and repeat

after me.... Look at each other " We face
each other I lift my head then look straight
in his eyes and I see annoyance

Judge:" Now since you don't have any vows

you wrote for yourselves please repeat after
me"
Mbuso:" Can you skip all of that and just go
to the part where we say I do" I hear my
cousin gasp in shock but I'm not shocked at
all.

Judge:" Lungi Mazibuko are you here at

your own free will and no one is forcing you
to be here to marry this man. If so say yes
and if not say no". The temperature in the
room changes to like zero degrees despite
that it's summer. I think about what the
judge says and 100℅ part of me doesn't
want this at all but my family didn't ask for
this too.

Me:" I am here on my own free will" I

answer and hear loud sighs and he asks
mbuso the same question and also gives
the same answer I did.

Judge:" If there is anyone here who doesn't

wish these two to get married speak now or
forever hold your peace" I look at my dad
begging him one last time but he doesn't
say anything just looks at me with no
emotion whatsoever.

Judge:" Please take her hands and repeat

after me " My hands were tucked under my
arms coz I'm so cold and shaking so I pull
them out and he takes them and I get
shocked to feel that they are so warm. I
thought they would be cold just like how he
looks.

Judge:" Do you Mbusowezwe Gumede take

uLungile Mazibuko to be your wedded wife.
To love and to cherish. In sickness and in
health. In good times and in bad times. For
richer and for poor. Till death do you apart?
"

Mbuso:" I do ". He doesn't even hesitate but

answers looking at me like he's bored.
Judge:" Do you Lungile Mazibuko take
Mbusowezwe Gumede to be your husband.
To love and to hold. In sickness and in
health. In good times and in bad times. For
richer and for poorer. Till death do you
apart" I'm literally shaking like I'm going
faint.

Me:"I...I... I do" I say mbuso holds my hands

tight .

Judge:" I now pronounce you husband and

wife. You may kiss your wife" I know he's
not going to kiss me but I'm wrong. He
brings my body close to his puts his hands
on my face and kissss me but I don't kiss
him back coz my mouth is closed but then
he bites me and I gasp then he takes that
opportunity to get his tongue in me and
forces me to reciprocate. His kiss is hard
but his lips are so soft and I almost moan
but then he stops. I hear giggles and I get
so embarrassed
Judge:" I give you Mr and Mrs Gumede
everyone " He starts to clap and soon
everyone in the room joins him and they all
clap then they leave us with our witnesses.
Mine is my cousin sims and his is his
brother.

We sign our marriage certificate and yes we

are married in community of property...
Which means what's mine is his and what's
his is mine. As of today I'm rich.... Don't
know how rich I am but I am rich and that
doesn't make me feel at ease at all because
for all I know he could be criminal. We
leave the office and he's with the same
driver he was with on Friday. We sit in the
backseat and the driver drives off. He is
sitting next to me and I'm looking outside
the window as we pass building after
building.
Mbuso:" I'm your husband now. You better
get used to me" I ignore him

Mbuso:" How many times must I tell you to

look at me when I'm talking to you"

Me:" Why are you doing this... What did I

ever do to you? "

Mbuso:" Your sister fucked with a wrong

man and unfortunately for you you're the
one who's gonna be paying for her sins. I
feel cold chills run down my back when he
says that then my head starts aching.

Me:" Where are we going? "

Mbuso:" The hotel to have lunch with your

family then after we fly to Joburg "

Me:" Fly how because we don't have an

airport here? "
Mbuso:" You'll see your dad hit you again?
". Yes and it's all your fault.

Me:" He didn't " He gives me oh really look.

We arrive at the hotel and mbuso takes my
hand I try to pull it off but he grips tight then
opens the door. Everyone is here they
came here after they left us at the court. I
look around and see it's like some sort of
wedding reception but it's so heartbreaking
for me because I never imagined the day I
get married will be the saddest day of my
life.

I feel like a part of me died today. My

parents are sitting with my now in-laws and
I don't see my uncle and his wife anywhere
and my heartbreaks even more. We go to
them and sit down.

MaGumede:" Welcome to the family lungi.

I'm glad to have another woman in the
family " She hugs me smiling
Me:" Thank you ma" His dad smiles and
looks at me like he feels sorry for me. My
parents don't say anything
Sponsored
I think they don't want to and I'm not sure if
I want them to say anything.

Mbuso:" I know that this isn't what we

expected to happen but because of buhle's
actions I had to protect my family's name
and honor. So since we don't know
anything about each other with my wife
here I was thinking if you all can give us
space and time to get to know each other
when we're ready we would invite all of you
over and have a family dinner" He wasn't
asking for permission he was basically
telling them.

MyDad:" We won't bother you. Take as

much time as you need even years if that's
not enough" I couldn't expect more from
him because I know he doesn't care about
me at all.

Fatherin-law:" We understand son. You and

our daughter in-law can take as much time
as you need and we won't put pressure on
you" his mom agrees

MaGumede:" But as for me and your aunt

lwethu you can call us anytime especially
when Mbuso gives you trouble. First thing
in the morning I'll be there. Don't hesitate to
call us ".

Me:" Thank you ma" I look at my mother

and she looks like she wants to stick a knife
on my eye "

Me:" Can I be excused I want to talk to my

brother and sister "
MaGumede:" Go ahead dear mbuso will
introduce you to your brother in-laws" We
go to their table

Me:" Good afternoon " My brother stands

up and hugs me tight. We hug for the
longest then let go and I hug Sims too.

Mbuso:" This is my brother Siyabonga and

that is Zipho the last born ".

Me:" Nice to meet you both " I lift my hand

to shake theirs

Siyabonga:" No hugs for us?.... Wow. " he

says playfully then gives me a side hug

Zipho:" we are family and so we deserve

those hugs too. Come here " My heart gets
warm a little bit and I smile for the first time
today. He gives me a full tight hug like the
one my brother gave me.
Mbuso:" That's enough zipho. Get yourself
your own damn wife you can hug like that "
The boys laugh. We sit with them and the
guys are talking and laughing and I'm
playing with my food. I'm hungry but I can't
eat and this damn headache.

Sims:" Made you don't look good drink

some water "

Me:" Let's go to the ladies room" I stand

then mbuso takes my hand

Mbuso:" Where are you going? "

Me:" To the ladies room. Do I need

permission to go there.... Can I? " I know
I've disrespected him the whole table gets
quiet

Mbuso:" You do. Go" Mxm we leave and as

soon as I get inside the ladies room I pour
water ony face.
Sims:" I can't believe he said that! " .

Me:" I feel like this is one big nightmare that

I'm having. A series of bad dreams that
continue to happen from the last 2days and
they are not going to stop anytime soon "

Sims:" He likes you luh the way he looks at

you wow"

Me:" Are you serious right now sims? "

She's annoying me right now

Sims:" Seriously I have experience with

men and I know when a man wants a
woman and that man wants to be in your
pants so badb"

Me:" You know what? I can't with you right

now! "
Sims:" He's going to want to tap that ass
tonight when you get to Joburg "

Me:" Oh my God just stop! . I don't need

this and I didn't ask for this. My parents
didn't even care whether I wanted it or not.
It should have been my choice not theirs
and you're also busy telling me how mbuso
wants to to fuck me!..." I scream at her

Sims:" Ssshhh..... I'm sorry. It's not fair to

you sis I'm so sorry " We hug then I clean
my face

Me:" Can you give me some pills the aching

won't stop " She gives them to me and I
drink.

Sims:" It's just stress sis you'll be okay hold

on for me and be strong. You'll get through
this " We leave and go back to them.
Mbuso:"it's time to go I sigh then Sims and I
hug and I wipe tears off her face.

Thami:" I'll see you soon okay and well talk

on the phone everyday " He kisses my
forehead and hugs me too. I go to my
parents and hug them too but they don't
hug me back and it's fine.

Mom;" I hope he makes your life a living

hell for stealing my daughters happiness "

Me;" How can you say that mama?...baba "

Dad:" Just go"

Mbuso:" Come lungi let's go" God he

heard.

Me:" I love you both goodbye". We head

inside the and I sit down and buckle up and
close my eyes. The car off it goes to
somewhere just outside standerton like
were going to Balfour but we take a gravel
road that leads to somewhere. He is looking
at me like he's studying me

Him:" How bad is your headache? "

Me:" To a point where I can't open my

eyes" He fishes out for something in the
glove compactment and comes out with
pills

Him:" They'll help with the headache drink" I

drink them then he presses a button and
my seat moves backwards making it easier
for me to sleep then I see him taking out his
laptop and I close my eyes aand dose off.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 4.

I feel someone shaking me softly I open my

eyes and see mbuso's face. I look around
and see that we're inside a small private jet
that carries about 4 passangers. I don't
remember getting inside the jet...he must
have carried me and I'm heavy.

Mbuso:" Wake up. We've landed "

Me:" Did you drug me? "

Him:" Why would I do that? you had a

headache and I was trying to get you some
rest " I just nod. I unbuckle then get up and
make our way to the car my whole body is
stiff and the only thing I want to is fall face
down and sleep.

His phone keeps ringing and he declines all

the calls. I won't ask who's calling because
it's none of my business. I can feel his eyes
on me but I don't dare look at him because
I'm scared of what's going to happen when
we get where he lives. He's so silent like
he's not in the car with me or even
breathing I don't know how he does that.
The drive continues for about forty five
minutes then we enter a posh
neighborhood of houses the architecture
and lighting of the houses is out of this
world and you can tell only the rich live
here. Once we enter the gate the drive
continues for another ten minutes then the
car drives straight into the garage and
stops.

My heart is beating so fast I feel like I'm

going to have a panick attack. He gets out
of the car and Frank opens my side of the
door and I get out and just stand there.

Him:" Follow me" He looks at me and I look

at Frank and I don't know for what reason
maybe for protection or assurance. He's
waiting by the door and when he sees me
coming he turns and I follow him.

That's all I've been doing since he turned

my life upside down is to follow him. We
enter what I know is the kitchen but I don't
get to look around because he's not giving
me a chance and my head is bowed down
too. I'm not ready to face this reality that I'm
now going to live but I made a choice and I
have to stick to it.

We get on the stairs and I try to be as fast

as him but my legs won't let me so I stop
and take off my wedges he stops too and
waits for me and when I'm done I follow him
again this house is huge. We stop at this
door and he opens it and heads for me to
enter and the first thing I feel is how thick
and soft the carpet is and I almost sigh coz
my feet enjoy it.

There's this huge bed it's a king size and

the headboard almost takes the whole wall
and there's some sort of decoration of steel
bars on the headboard they are part of
it....that's weird. His phone rings again and
he declines the call for the eleventh time it's
not like I was counting and I wonder who's
calling him.

Him:" There's an en suite bathroom and

walk in closet there on your right your
clothes are also there with everything you
will need.

Me:" Ok"

Him:" Aren't you hungry because you didn't

eat the whole day? "

Me:" I'm not hungry I just want to sleep"

Him:" Fine I'm going out. Dont wait up dear

wife "

Me:" I don't care" He looks at me one last

time before closing the door then a few
minutes later I hear a sports car driving out.
He's gone and I sigh deeply then make my
way to the bathroom and take off all my
clothes and get in the shower. The water is
just how I like it hot so I scrub myself clean.
I want to cry but I'm too drained... I'm
exhausted.... I feel numb... I am numb.

I get done showering then wear my pj's

then throw the many pillows on the bed on
different directions of the bedroom then get
in bed. The sheets are silk
Sponsored
they smell fresh and clean. I bury my face
on the pillow and sleep like I'm dead on my
stomach.

I'm still sleepy when I hear the shower is on

and I look at the clock on the wall and it's
3am. He just got back from wherever he
was at and now he is washing off some
woman's smell off of him. I hear the shower
door opening and so I lay on my stomach
again and close my eyes so he won't notice
that I'm alert of him.

I can't believe he's going to sleep in the

same bed I'm sleeping on why couldn't he
just show me the guest bedroom to use it
and not have to worry if he's going to touch
me and that thought makes me panick. He
switches off the lights gets in the bed facing
me and I can feel his fresh breath on my
face and I know his body is close not too
close but close enough because the
moment he got in the bed I felt this warmth
from him.

I can feel his eyes on me and I don't know if

may he's waiting for me to open them up or
ask him where he was at but I'm not going
to do that. I turn my head and face the other
side and he sighs faces the other way and
sleeps.
I don't know when I fell asleep but I'm
awake because my body everyday at
5:30am automatically wakes me up. I open
my eyes and see mbuso is deep in sleep
facing me. I go to the bathroom and do my
morning routine then go to the walk in
closet and wear my under garments and
long dress then leave the bedroom and
mbuso is still sleeping. I still remember the
way to the kitchen and I get there and find a
woman who's about in her late fifties stirring
something in the pot and she must the help
I think.

Me:" Good morning ma " She turns and

looks at me and smiles and her smile is
warm

Her:" Good morning Mrs Gumede. I didn't

realize madam will be up so e early "

Me:" I'm an early riser. My name is lungi

mazibuko oh sorry ma it's Gumede now "
Her:" Nice to meet you madam and I'm
Sophie dlamini but you can call me
madlamini "

Me:" Nice to meet you too ma and you can

call me lungi not Mrs Gumede "

Her:" Mnumzane gave me strict instructions

that I must call you either mrs gumede or
madam " Who cares what he said but it's
his house and staff so I won't argue.

Me:" Madam will do can I help you with

anything" For now I say to myself

Her:" Sir said you'll tell me what to do

around the house "

Me:" Just do what you've been doing ma

but I'll clean our bedroom do his laundry
and I'll also cook "
Her:" Does that mean you're going to cut off
my salary and the days I work? "

Me:" No ma I won't do that you'll continue to

get the same salary you've been getting.
How many days do you work here? "

Her:" Monday to Friday from 5:30am then

on the weekends 7am to 2pm"
That's crazy why would mbuso work this
woman such crazy hours

Me:" Do you have a family? "

Her:"I do madam. I have 5 grandkids that I

live with" She takes out her phone and
shows me their pictures and they are all
cute.

Me:" Your grandkids are beautiful "

Her:" thank you madam"

Me:" So when you're here this early who's
watching them? "

Her:" The oldest who's 15. They understand

that I have to work for them "

Me:" Where are their mother's if you do

think me asking? "

Her:" They sometimes come home or call

and sometimes they don't show up for
months"

Me:" I'm sorry to hear that ma. How much is

mbu....my husband paying you? "

Her:" Eh eish madam maybe you should

ask him " What is she afraid of

Me:" I will. What do you use for transport? "

Her:" I take taxis madam" What?

Me:" Where do you live? "

Her:" Soweto at snake park "

Me:" It takes you how many taxis to get

here? "

Her:" 3 madam sometimes 2" You does

mbuso know where this woman lives and
why is she using taxis when he can get
someone to take her home

Me:" Excuse me for asking soany

questions. I just want to know more about
you since I'll be staying here. You've
worked how many years for him? "
Her;" I understand madam. It's going to be
a year now " She stars to put everything on
the kitchen table and makes fresh coffee. I
start to plate for myself when I hear doors
opening and closing more like someone
banging them closed then hard thud
footsteps like he's in a hurry... Like chill
dude.

He gets in the kitchen and my breathing

starts to change because I don't know what
he's going to say. Will he say something or
ignore me. I feel him standing behind me
then he turns the chair I'm sitting in and I
see he's only wearing pyjama pants and his
chest is bare and he has that v-thing men
have that leads to his crotch. He tilts my
head up with his finger and then gives me a
kiss full on tthe mouth. I miss him back
shocked at his action.

Him:" Morning my lovely wife "

Me:" Morning my husband " He smirks

Him:" Madlamini unjani"

Her:" I'm good mnumzane " She leaves us

alone in the kitchen.
Him:" I thought you were gone. I wake up
and I'm alone in bed"

Me:" I'm an early riser" He turns to go sit on

the opposite chair and I almost gasp loud
but I close my mouth fast....shocked at what
I'm seeing.

CHAPTER 5
CHAPTER 5.

His back is full of scratches....nail scratches

that can you only get from a woman who
has long nails during sex...oh wow I did
suspect but seeing the evidence that he
came home late because he was fucking
someone...kinda hurt a little. Here I am
married to him my life has changed but for
him it seems as if nothing has changed on
his side.
He plates for himself sits down eats and
totally ignores me. I guess that kiss was for
show. I make an orange juice have
scrambled eggs bacon bread and eat. The
same door we came in yesterday opens
then I see his brothers and parents walking
in. I get up so fast from the chair the realize
my head is not covered but at least I'm
wearing a dress...it should count for
something.

Me:" Good morning baba nomama

sanibonani bobhuti" The brothers greet
back

Father in-laws:" Makoti wami omuhle

unjani" ( my beautiful makoti how are you)
Me:" Ngiyaphila baba wena? " ( I'm good
dad and you)

Him:" I will be once I eat"

Mother in-law:" Your dad is always grumpy
in the morning. How are you makoti we
thought you might be still sleeping " She
comes and hugs me and hugs mbuso too
and they all sit down.

Me:" I was hungry ma that's why I woke up

early " Well it is the truth and I also didn't
want mbuso to wake up before me. Mbuso
his dad and brothers talk about work. I take
the dishes and put them in front of
everyone.

Me:" What can I dish up for you baba?"

Him:" Everything that's here makoti" I do

MaGumede:" I'll dish for myself sit down

makoti and these two will dish for
themselves " I sit down and we eat.
Mbuso:" Baba I thought I asked you to give
us space but you're all here why?" The
whole table gets quiet

Gumede:" We're all here because I wanted

to talk to you about something before we
leave for Cape Town with your mom. We're
taking a mini holiday and mbuso you will
not tell me when or when not can I come to
my sons house siyezwana?! "

Mbuso:" Yebo baba I was just asking " He

says then stands up turns his back and
goes to open the fridge and everyone's
eyes are on his back then his brothers look
at me like oh I know what you did last night
his mom gasps and his dad looks at me....
Looks at my hands especially my nails and
I know he knows. I quickly put then on my
lap under the table and look down. I can
feel my face heating up turning red because
of the embarrassment. Mbuso pours
himself some apple juice and notices that
everyone is silent watching him. He sits
down slowly looking at his dad then at his
brothers who are laughing.

Him:" What are you two clowns laughing at

" It's either mbuso doesn't know what his
back looks like or may be he forgot or he
simply doesn't care.

Gumede:" My daughter in-law did you sleep

well last night" Oh God

Me:"I did baba"

Gumede:" Hmmm. Can you please pour me

coffee" What? I stand up and take the fresh
brewing coffee from the machine and pour
it for him. I'm standing next to him and he's
looking at my hands.... Oh mbuso!

Gumede:" Add the creamer only 2

teaspoons " I add and stir. Iook at mbuso
and he looks confused at his dad and his
mom continues to drink her tea looking
down.

Me:" Can I be excused? "

Gumede:" Sit down and finish your

breakfast" This man's big voice is so scary.
I sit my ass down.

Mbuso:" Baba is something wrong....did

lungi do something wrong? " His mother
shakes her head looking at him

Her:" You are a very smart man but

sometimes you can be stupid mbuso yoh! "

Him:" Aw ma what did I do now?" He forgot

Gumede:" You really don't know or you're

just disrespecting us here... Especially your
wife? "
Mbuso:" What? I really don't know what
you're talking about and disrespect her
how? " His voice starts to get loud

Gumede:" Is that how now you talk to me

mbuso? raise your voice ever at me again
and I'll punch you until you get your senses
back" He's as cool as a cucumber but his
voice carries so much authority

Mbuso:"I'm sorry baba it will never happen

again but I still don't know what wrong I did"

Gumede:" Did you share the same with

your wife last night? " group open us and
swallow me.

Mbuso:" With all due respect dad I cannot

answer that"

Gumede:" Thought as much well answer

me this. Is she the one who put those
scratches on your back? " Mbuso's face
goes all white then he looks at his
mom brothers then me and I look down. He
stands next to the fridge turns his body and
sees his reflection and he says fuck softly. I
go to "our" bedroom and look for his T-shirt
in the closet come back with it and I give it
to him and he takes it wears it and sits
down with his head bowed down. I would
think he is ashamed but hey I don't know
this man.

Gumede:" What time did he come back

lungi? and one thing you should know
about your father in law is you do not lie to
me. We do not lie in this family we always
tell the truth no matter what
Sponsored
do you hear me" First time I hear my father
in law call me by my name.

Me:" I hear you baba " I look at mbuso and

he looks so guilty sitting there like a school
boy getting reprimanded by his parents.
Gumede:" When did he come home last
night? "To lie or not to lie

Me:" I was asleep by the time he came

back but I woke up when I heard the
shower was on and I looked at the clock
and it was 3 am"

Gumede:" So the moment you landed and

got home you left your wife all alone in this
house and left to do disgusting
things.....while you were supposed to be
here comforting her but you were out
making some woman who's not your wife
screaming your name mbuso!. At 3 am
that's when a married man comes home? "

Mbuso:" It won't happen again baba. I'm

sorry "
Gumede:" The very first day you got
married you left your wife to go and cheat?
"

Mbuso:" I didn't cheat on her. We don't

have that kind of relationship "

MaGumede:" You know I can just slap you

right now mbuso. Wasn't it you who said
you need time to get to know each
other?....or you were talking about sleeping
with those cheap women you always sleep
with yeh?....talk man! "

Mbuso:" But mo. .... "

MaGumede:" Don't mom me man!. You are

a married man now mbuso grow up. Forget
about your bachelor days they are gone.
Focus on your wife here or else you'll lose
one of the best things that has happened in
your life. Having her as your wife is good for
you you might not see it but I know it mbuso
because I'm your mother. Change your
ways or let this poor girl go because she
has been put through enough for something
she didn't do or asked to be part of. Do right
by her. Lungi let's go upstairs " His mom
doesn't wait for him to answer. She dropped
all of that on him...I wonder what his dad is
going to say. We leave the men in the
kitchen.

Ma:" Did he show you around the house? "

Me:" No ma he was going to show me
today" I lie. The whole house has 8
bedrooms with en suite bathrooms ours has
a beautiful verander private lounge for what
kodwa yoh cold room pantry room laundry
room gym sitting dining room that leads to
the kitchen then basement has a very cosy
almost intimate like cinema room and
garages outside 2 cottages of which one of
then maGumede says it's for security.

Me:" It's a very beautiful house ma"

Ma:" And I hope you'll turn it into a home " I
look down

Her:" I wanted to talk with you so let's sit "

We sit at the sitting room

Me:" Ok ma"

Her:" I know you didn't choose this and to

be here and it's okay to feel angry and hurt.
I'm sorry you were dragged into this without
anyone considering your feelings and it was
not fair from all of us" I tear up.

Her:" I wish I can say all the things that will

make all of this okay but I what I know is
mbuso could've have walked away when he
found out what your sister did but he didn't
because he saw you and knew there was
something about you and he wanted that
for himself. We were shocked as you were
when he told us that you'll be the one who'll
take your sister's place"

Her:" We may not know what his reasons

are and if or maybe he's just being a selfish
man and men can be very selfish lungi.
What he did last night was not right at all
and he owes you an apology I know you're
good for him and you're exactly what he
needs in his life. What am trying to say
lungi is give this a chance my child. Show
umbuso the way and let him into your heart
and I promise you you won't regret it ".

Me:" I don't know how to do that ma. It's

really hard and I didn't ask for all of this "
I'm crying

Her:" Ssshhh I know it's hard and I'm sorry

baby. It's going to be okay" She hugs me
comforting me and I ask myself again why
couldn't my mother be like this but I'm glad I
have found another mother. Even though
she's my in-law she seems like she is a
very carrying and loving woman and I'm
glad to have a part of that.

Her:" Everything is going to work out just

give it time. Ubaba is talking with your
husband and I'm sure he'll get through him
and hell change his ways and if not I'm just
a phone call away. You call me anytime you
hear me? "

Me:" I will ma. Thank you" She smiles.

Her:" You really are a beautiful woman lungi

and you are going to make my son really
happy and he won't know what hit him.
Between the two of us I'm glad it's you and
not your sister " Heh I look at her shocked.

Her:" I always knew they weren't going to

last. Don't look at me like that. . . . Look at
how red you are... Go wash your face.
You'll find me in the kitchen I'm sure my
husband is ready to go" She smiles

Me:" Thank you again ma. I needed to hear

that"

Her:" Remember that I'm always here for

both of you. Marriage is hard lungi and you
are going to need all the support you can
get and unfortunately for you it's going to be
that much harder but I know you can do it
and pull through. The first year of marriage
is always hard but after that everything gets
betterand bearable.

Me:" Yes ma" She stands up and leaves. I

go to our bedroom and wash my face
quickly then look at the mirror and you can
tell I've been crying and I look like a mess. I
go down stairs and I find his family about to
leave.
Gumede:" My daughter your husband has
something to say" I look at mbuso then he
comes stands next to me and takes my
hands in his.

Him:" I'm sorry for what I did and it will

never happen again. Will you forgive me?
" I look at this man and wonder if he's
doing it just for show in front of his parents
or he really means it.

Me:"I forgive you"

Him:" Thank you"

Gumede:" It's time for us to go. You two

take care of each other with love and
respect. We will see you soon and you boys
give them space" They agree.

I hug my mother in law and his brothers and

surprisingly my father in law hugs me too
then they leave. It's just the two of us
again....well and madlamini too.

Mbuso:" Why didn't you tell me I had

scratches on my back? "

Me:" Why?... I'm not the one who put them

there" I go to the kitchen to clean up but
find madlamini has already cleaned so I go
upstairs and he follows me

Mbuso:" Don't walk away from me when I'm

talking to you! "

Me:" You don't get to tell me what to do or

what not. I want to sleep in a separate
bedroom "

Him:" I'm the man of this house and you'll

do as I say" Huh this man... What year does
he think this is?
Me:" Ok man of the house I want my own
bedroom and privacy"

Him:"why that bed is big enough for the

both of us "

Me:"I want my own bedroom so I won't hear

or see and smell you smelling like your
girlfriend and coming back at 3 am that's
why "

Him;" You are my wife on paper only. Don't

you dare start acting like we have a
relationship because we will not. I will do as
I please as I have been doing before you "
That hurt... Like really hurt me.

Me:" Then why am I here... Why did you

marry me?! " I scream at him

Him:" To pay for you and your sisters sins

and to make sure that she's going to pay
I'm going to make your life as miserable as I
can "

Me:" What? I never did anything bad to you.

I didn't even know you or even know about
you until she came home and said some
man she's seeing wants to marry her. Why
are you punishing me for her running away
and getting pregnant by someone else".

Him:" Stop lying because you knew and

helped her. You both stole my 2million
Rands!....where is my money!?"
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 5.
Chapter 5 Continual

Me:" What? 2 million rands?... Me and my

sister stole 2 million rands from you? that's
crazy. I don't even have half of that kind of
money and I would never do something like
that because I'm not a thief. You can check
my bank account and you'll see just how
much I have ". I'm so in shock I'm literally
shaking and so I sit on the bed hands on
my head.

Him:" You such a good actress you

know....the way you played my mom acting
hurt and all while you knew it was just an
act "

Me:" It is not an act. I am hurt by all of this "

Him:" Just fucken stop it because I have

proof!"

Me:" What proof?...whatever proof you think

you have on me is not real or true " He
laughs

Him:" Of both of you planning the whole

thing and sweetheart you are going to pay.
You won't sleep in a separate bedroom and
you better get used to it because we are
going to share that bed everyday and do
what married do... I'm going to have you
soon" I feel sick to my stomach how can a
person be this cold and heartless

Me:" I did nothing of such... I did not steal

your money! "

Him:" You think I'm stupid neh that I

wouldn't investigate and I'm making all of
this up?... Don't you dare patronize! "

Me:" I hate you mbuso I hate you! I hate

you! " I scream at him and he laughs

Him:" The feeling is mutual. You messed

with the wrong man sweetheart " He then
goes to the bathroom not closing the door
and showers. How did my life get to be this
complicated I don't know anything about the
2 million rands Jesus!. What did buhle do
with this man's money and somehow
involve me. I take my phone and go down
stairs passing madlamini carrying fresh
clean laundry.

Me:" Ma about what I said earlier about

mbuso's laundry you can wash it and clean
the room and cook breakfast and lunch. I'll
just cook dinner "

Her:" Ok madam" She takes out

a handkerchief and gives it to me with pity
on her face and I take it.

Me:" Thank you madlamini " I quickly leave

before she asks me questions I have no
answers to. Don't get me wrong she sounds
like a sweet woman but I don't want her in
my business because she'll start getting
involved and forget she's here to make
things much better for mbuso. I go to the
cinema and switch off the lights and sit in
the dark. I like being in the dark coz I'm
hidden. No one can see me hurt me and it
makes me feel invisible. I try to call buhle
but as always her number is on voice mail
and I live a bunch of messages and the last
one I leave has me screaming at her and
crying. I continue to cry uncontrollable and
end up falling asleep in there.

The smell of cooked meat wakes me up my

body is so stiff. I make my way upstairs and
go to our bedroom and take all of my
clothes from the closet to the other
bedroom and put them in the closet since
it's going to be my bedroom from now on
and I don't care what he said. He's not here
in the house he must have went
somewhere. I take a hot bath and take my
time and when I'm done I go to the kitchen
and find madlamini almost done with
cooking. I look at the time and it's 2pm.

Me:" It smells amazing in here ma" She

smiles

Her:" Thank you madam"

Me:" So much food for just 2 people "

Her:" Sir said he's going to come with some

people so I must cook more food " I nod. I'm
going to stay in my bedroom because I
don't want to disturb him and his friends. I
eat my lunch then head to my bedroom and
go through my phone.

No messages from sims or my brother and

well my parents won't bother calling me. I
must call them which reminds me I get on
my laptop and type a resignation letter with
immediate effect to my employer. They
didn't think about my life my job and my
friends well the only friend I have is my
cousin sims but still. Everyone I know is
there and everything I've known in my life is
all the way in Mpumalanga and I know
absolutely no one here. Ive been to Joburg
many times and I know where the malls are
and so I decide to go there.
I download the Uber app and quickly

my job and my friends well the only friend I
have is my cousin sims but still. Everyone I
know is there and everything I've known in
my life is all the way in Mpumalanga and I
know absolutely no one here. Ive been to
Joburg many times and I know where the
malls are and so I decide to go there.

I download the Uber app and quickly

change before mbuso comes back take my
bag and request for one while I'm waiting
and it says it's 5 minutes away.

Me:" Ma?...when did he say you can knock

off since he's having a party? "

Her:" After I have prepared everything "

Me:" How far are you? "

Her:" I'm almost done madam"

Me:" Ok after you're done please go home

because it's almost winter and it gets dark
quickly and I want you home safe. From
now on you'll knock off at 4pm and on the
weekends your off" My Uber driver is here

Her:"oh thank you very much madam"

She's happy with that decision

Me:" Ok ma " Then I leave and head

straight to the mall of Africa I mean where
else. I spend my whole day there and
window shop then decide to go get
something to eat at the steakhouse
because I just love my meat and order a
glass of wine and have a lovely dinner.

I go watch John wick movie and by the time

it's done 22:30pm then head home to face
my fucked up life. There are many cars
parked outside and the music is too loud.
Gosh I hope I'll be able to sleep. The
security stop the Uber driver and when they
see it's me they tell him to drop me off here
and he agrees and leaves. I see a car
coming then frank pulls up and opens the
door for me and I get in.

Me:" Good evening Frank"

Hi:" Evening madam" We drive in and I

prepare myself for what I'm about to face. I
get off the car and open the door and there
are so many people there and the woman
or girls almost a of them are half naked. I
get curious looks like who's this girl that
didn't get the memo because I'm just
wearing jeans and a sweater. There's even
a DJ playing no wonder it's so noisy and it
looks like I'm inside a club but I'm in this
house... My house?.
I pass people making my way upstairs but
then I see mbuso with this girl who has her
arms wrapped around him and talking to
him and he's looking at her smiling then he
turns and sees that it's me then his face
gets filled with rage. He pushes the girl off
of him and walks towards me and I don't
know why I do it but I run upstairs knocking
off some people but I don't care then get to
my bedroom and lock the door. Mbuso has
this scary thing about him that freaks me
out... His aura nje scares me to death.

Him:" Open this door right now lungi! " His

banging the door and I keep quiet

Him:" Open this fucken door right now! "

He's getting angry

Me:" Mbuso please I had a long day and I

just want to sleep. Go to your party and
leave me alone ".
Him:" Who told you to come here?...fuck off
and wait for me down stairs" He says to
someone and I bet it's that girl. He gets
quiet for a few minutes then I see the door
handle turn and the door opens. He closes
it behind him and and stands there looking
at me shaking

Him:" Where were you?. Who told you you

can leave this house and who gave you that
permission? " He asks coming to where I'm
standing now next to the dressing table

Me:" I don't need permission from you to go

anywhere "

Him:" You forget that I own you until I say

otherwise. So dear wife I own everything
and I mean every little thing about you is
under my command and you will do
everything I say"
Me:" Please mbuso I don't want this. I want
to go home and back to my life. Please I
didn't do anything to you. I never stole from
you " I tear up

Him:" The sooner you understand that You.

Are. Not. Going. Anywhere the sooner you'll
get used to it and those crocodile tears
don't move me so they won't work on me.
You stole my money and I'll show you the
proof" He thinks I'm pretending that my
tears are fake... Why did buhle steal this
man's money that I'm paying for right
now?.... I hate her!

Me:" Please just go. I want to sleep"

There's no use fighting it. This is my reality
and I have to accept it.

Him:" You didn't answer my question " He

says getting closer
Me:" I went to the mall I just wanted to get
out of this house "

Him:" Look at me everytime when you're

talking with me understand? " I nod and he
raises his eyebrow

Me:" I understand "

Him:" You'll have a driver tomorrow who'll

take you anywhere you want to go.
Wherever you go he goes with you. If I ever
find out that you went somewhere without
him there'll be hell to pay do you
understand me?! "

Me:" Yes" I wipe the tears off my face and

look at him

Him:" Why did you move your things out of

our bedroom? "
Me:" That's not our bedroom mbuso it's
yours. I just want my privacy that's why I
moved "

Him:" Your privacy huh? what about my

privacy that you invaded when you stole my
freaking money?...you've got some nerve
talking about privacy " He says so calm like
it's nothing to him. Someone knocks on the
door and goes to it and opens it just a little

Him:" Fuck off Mel I'm busy" And closes the

door on the persons face

Me:" I didn't steal.... "

Him:" Shut the fuck up!. I don't want to hear

it. I better find you in that bedroom when I
come back or you'll know me" He then
leaves and I sit own a little then leave to his
bedroom.
I take off my clothes and get into the
shower and make the water hot and get
under it and scrub scrub scrub myself until
my skin gets red and start to hurt but I don't
leave. I'm used to people being hard and
hating on me meaning my mom dad and
sister and I've learned to deal with it and
leave with it but what they did this time and
mbuso treating this way is all too much and
I don't think I can take it anymore. I can
take so much as a person but with mbuso is
whole entire different level because I think
he's the one who's finally going to break me
coz I feel like I'm near that point. I get out
drink headache pills brush my teeth wear
pj's then get in bed and sleep.

Very loud moaning and groaning sounds

wake me up. The house is quite and I think
the party is over but I guess its not over for
some people who are having loud sex and I
think it's mbuso and that girl.
CHAPTER 6.
A lots of African novels available here
www.allnovelworld.com
I get up and go to the bathroom and do my
business then I hear the bedroom door
opening and closing then mbuso gets in the
bathroom and sees me. He ignores me
then takes off his clothes standing in front
of me. I quickly finish up before he gets
naked in front of me then wash my hands
and I'm about to leave when he blocks my
way out.

Him:" I'm coming now don't fall asleep "

What?? oh hell no. He kisses my neck and
leave not answering him. I get in bed and
face away from his side of the bed and
cover myself up to my neck. The moaning
and groaning sounds haven't stopped and
if mbuso is here then who are the people
fucking... Maybe his friends. The woman is
now screaming " Yes baby fuck me harder "
God it's gonna be a long night. I see
mbuso's shadow and I close my eyes and
goosebumps breakout all over my body and
my heart beats fast.

Him:" Fuck they are so loud" He gets in the

bed and switches the side lamp on and
then I get shocked when he drags my body
to his in one swift move and I hold my
breath. I feel his naked skin on my back coz
my pyjama top has risen up and then his
hand goes under my top and connects with
my skin and I hold my breath.

Him:" Breath out slowly or you'll pass out

and we don't want that now do we" He says
next to my ear and damn my body
shudders and my nipples peeble.

Him:" Clothes are not allowed in this bed

sweet let's take them off" He says getting
up and moving off the blankets and God...
He is naked and I can't help myself and
look at that happy trail that leads to that tool
of mass destruction and I suck my breath.
Me:" Mbuso.... Please" I beg him

Him:" Ssshhhhh" He kisses my ear and I

feel his warm breath

Me:" I'm not ready " Honestly I'm not.

Him:" You're never going to be ready sweet

" He says so sweet and tender that a sob
escapes my mouth. He takes his hands and
runs them on my boobs and down to my
nectar and rubs it with his right thumb and I
let him it feels good and he's my husband
right? it was only in paper but now it's going
to be official.

Me:" Just give me time and we'll do it "

Him:" You don't like this?.... It doesn't feel

good?.... I know your mind doesn't want this
but what about your body.... It wants what
I'm doing to it now and what I'm about to do
to it ".

My top is off now and he is pulling my pants

off and he taps on my hips so I can lift my
butt and I do and off they go and I'm
completely naked. I try to cover my nectar
but he takes my hands off and shake his
head.

Him:" You're not going to hide yourself from

me sweet. We're going to consummate our
marriage now. Lights on" He says loud and
the whole bedroom gets bright. I cover my
eyes and they are wet.

Him:" You are so beautiful " He says out

loud and I doubt that he meant it for me to
hear and I look at him

Him:" Yeah I said it. Even a blind man can

feel and see your beauty and it's all mine to
do as I wish. Take off those hands on your
face and look at me. Always look at me" I
wipe my face before moving my hands.

Him:" You're even more beautiful when you

cry...open your legs " He gets between my
thighs and roughly separates my legs as he
gets between them and looking at my
nectar. I don't like shaving off all of my
pubic hair. I leave some of it and now I'm
embarrassed as I see him looking at me
there.

Him:" just how I like it " What? he says

proudly and starts to touch my legs rubbing
his hands up and down then does the same
to my inner thighs and I squirm.

His hands move to my nectar and I hold my

breath when he separates the lips of my
pussy and I feel cool air there then I feel
one finger there brushing my clit and I know
he feels how wet I am....my treacherous
body. He groans and continues to brush my
clit with his thumb then his other hand goes
to my boobs and feels them one at a time
and my nipples peeble hard then he
pinches them at the same time as he enters
me with his finger and fingers me. My body
gets off the bed arching.

Him:" You are so wet.... You want this as

much as I do" My body has its own plans
and as much as I don't want this I'm
enjoying it.

He brings his body on top of mine and his

skin is so warm his finger is still inside of
me moving in and out then he adds another
one stretching me.

Me:" Aahh" He is kissing my neck and I'm

sure I'm going to have marks on my neck
tomorrow

Him:" Finally she makes a sound" He says

adding another finger and that's 3 yoh
Me:" aw.... " I try to pull out his hand but he
takes both my hands in his and raises
the over my head pinning them there tight.

Him:" Oh sweet my fingers are snug in

here....you feel how wet you are? " He
increases his pace moving them in different
directions and rubbing my clit and I start
move my hips and I sweat because I know
I'm about to have an orgasm

Me:" Mbuso.....ah" He takes his hand off of

mine and wraps it around my shoulders like
he's holding me down with it and also uses
his body. He then presses his thumb on my
clit and I moan out loud then he rubs it
softly with his warm hand and I'm just there
if he can just..........then I feel him enter me
hard rough and fast and I scream and hold
him tight feeling like the bones of my lower
body have come undone coz that's what it
feels like like they just got broken he
freezes.

Him:" Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Lungi you're a

virgin?" My eyes are closed tight and I
shake my head no because I can't talk.

Him:" Look at me and tell me!. " He

demands

Me:" I'm... I'm not a virgin okay" He shakes

his head

Him:" How many guys have you slept with?"

He asks pulling out then thrusts a little
depeer than he was before

Me;" What?... Aaaww"

Him:" How many guys have fucked you? "

He asks getting angry and thrusting hard
too
Me:" Not too hard please just one other
than you "

Him:" How long was that and how many

times" I can't believe he wants to talk about
another man fucking me while he's inside
me...who does that?.

Me:" I don't want to talk about it mbuso just

finish" He pulls out and I wince.

Him:" Get on your hands and knees. Face

down ass up " He says seriously and I do
then I feel him just watching my behind then
feel his rock hard long dick on my nectar
rubbing it up and down. He separates my
butt cheeks and points his rigid member
there and slowly enters me groaning... I feel
full like he's all in me and I moan in
pleasure and slightly pain.

Him:" Relax your body I'm just halfway. You

can take all of me in you sweet. Just relax
your muscles and body " I listen to what he
says and the moment I relax my body it
feels better and he groans then pulls out
then thrusts in hard burying himself deep in
me and I gasp in shock.

Me:" Aaahhhh you're breaking me"

Him:" Ssshhhh you feel so amazing...fuck

luh " He groans then moves his hips up and
down and holds my butt cheeks tight with
his fingers deep in my skin and fucks me
like a man that was starving and denied
food. He continues to fuck me and I'm just
lost in the pleasure and pain. He rubs my
clit making me more wet and I arch my
back giving him all of me.... It's that damn
dick that's making me moan in pleasure
and him groan.

Him:" How many times did he fuck you "

Me:" Aaahhh I don't know... 2 or 3 times I
think....mmmm" He slaps both my butt
cheeks hard then grabs my waist tight with
his hands and I'm near

Him:" How.many.fucken.times? "Each word

he says he thrusts and slaps my ass hard

Me:" Ahhh 3 times okay. Just 3 times 2

years ago " He changes his pace and hits
that one spot over and over again
and thrusts hard again and slaps my ass
and that pushes me over and I fall.....I have
an out of body intense orgasm I have never
felt in my life. I let go calling his name at the
top of my lungs. He gently catches me in
his arms coz my body feels heavy then he
lays me on my stomach while he's still
inside me and lays his body on top of my
wet one and gives me sweet kisses on my
face and neck and ear then he gets his
hand between my legs and plays with my
sensitive bud awakening it again.
Me:"mmmm oh God " I say moaning

Him:"yes sweet I'm your God " I move my

hips and meet him thrust for thrust. I grip
his dick inside me using my pussy muscles
and he loses it and gives me the fuck I will
never forget and I know for sure I'm not
gonna be able to move off this bed
tomorrow.

Him:" How far are you " He asks and his

body starts to shake

Me:" I'm..... I'm aaaahhh"

Him:" Oh fuck..... Come with me now" He

thrust seven more times then bites my neck
and I come uncontrollably hard with him at
the same time calling his name again then
his body falls on mine with all of his weight
on me and damn how is it that his skin is
always warm. He pulls out and I wince then
feel his warm seed on my thighs and then it
dawns on me that we didn't use protection.
He gets up and goes to the bathroom and
comes back.

Him:" Turn around" He says I open my legs

and wince when he cleans me. I didn't
expect that I thought he'll throw the towel at
me to clean myself. His voice has gone
very deep and gruff and I like it. Oh look at
me catching me feelings what's wrong with
m. He cleans himself and I turn the other
way when he gets in bed and covers us
with the blanket.

Him:" Does it hurt? " He asks

Me:" It does" He breathes out

Him:" Good " I freeze and feel my heart

drop. But what did I expect? that he would
change after fucking me?....I'm so naive.
I'm not gonna cry.
Me:" I hate you "

Him:" Hate me all you want I don't care but

your body enjoys my touch and what I just
did. This was me being nice to you and I
was getting a taste of the 2 million pussy
and I'm going to enjoy it "

Him:" I hope to God that the day when you

learn the truth and realise what wrongs you
have done to me you will regret it".

He doesn't say anything but I know he

wants to so he turns and faces the other
way. I close my eyes and fight the tears that
want to come out because I don't want to
give him the satisfaction that he hurts me....
His words hurts me. I was a fool to think he
would hold me and comfort me. I just feel
so alone. He takes me up again in the
following hours and after 3 more rounds he
let's me sleep.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 6

I wake up and it's later than I usually do and

the sun is out and I'm alone in bed. I make
the bed and make myself a bath because I
feel so sore. I take my time and when I'm
done I go to the kitchen and I can hear
voices as I'm approaching male voices and
a female one.

I get to the kitchen and the first thing I see

is a girl I mean woman I think she's about
the same age as I am. She's skinny and
she's sitting on top of one guy and he's
kissing her neck and the other one is
kissing her in the lips O wow...she's
sandwiched between them and mbuso is
watching them like he's enjoying the show
they are putting on and I'm just shocked
because I have never seen something like
this live.
Me:" Good morning " I say clearing my
throat and they all turn look at me and I just
there looking awkward. Mbuso stretches his
hand for me to come to him and I do then
he opens his legs for me to stand between
them and I do.

He pulls me real close hands around my

waist and my face next to his and I can
smell his coffee breath over face when he
breathes and my body just melts... I don't
know why. He kisses me full on the lips
taking my breath away and I kiss him back
and for a moment forget about the people
who are watching us dead silent.

Him:" Morning sweet did they wake you up?

" He asks....concerned?

Me:" No they didn't "

Him:" Let me introduce you to the guys" he
turns me around still holding me then I feel
his hard dick on my ass. Did I give him a
boner or he got it from watching these 3? I
don't know.

Him:" This guy sitting down is Paul and the

one standing up is Mike " I look at them and
see they are tall and dark skinned and
almost same weight not sure but Paul has a
tattoo that's visible on his neck and Mike
has a little scar on his left cheek and no
facial hair. So who's the girl? and Paul has
the same name as my ex.

Me:" Hi I'm lungi nice to meet you " .

The girl:" Hi lungi I'm Gugu" She says

looking at me up and down more like sizing
me up..okay.

The guys are still looking at me like who are

you and where you come from then Paul
stands up upruntly and Gugu almost falls
but balances herself with Mike. He
approaches and I don't know why but I pull
back to mbuso and he holds me tight.

Paul:" So this is the secret you've been

keeping " He looks at me undressing me
with his eyes and that makes me feel very
uncomfortable

Paul:" Are we going to share her too? " I

gasp in shock and freeze. He is now just
two steps away from me then he lifts his
hand like he wants to touch me.

Mbuso:" Touch her and I'll chop off both

your hands" He says seriously and Paul
laughs.

Mike:" Come on G we've always shared

and so what's special about her other than
she's very and I mean very beautiful and
sexy as hell" So they share women? does
this mean they shared buhle too?

Mbuso:" Touch even one little hair on

her not only will I first chop off your hands
but I'll also put a bullet between your eyes "
The way he says it sounds like it isn't even
him and it's so scary. I feel cold chills from
the nape of my neck to my back.

Mike:" She's one of the women you always

fuck so we should also have a piece like we
always do. I mean we share our girls with
you so it's only fair if you do the same" Mike
says getting angry and I'm getting pale from
the things I'm hearing.

Mbuso:" Let it be the last time you both say

something like this mike or so help me God.
This is not some piece of meat like that
cheap girl between the two of you that you
fucked under my wife's roof. Don't ever talk
about her like that. Do we understand each
other?! "

Paul:" What? your wife.... When did you get

married? " He asks shocked

Mbuso:" That's none of your business

apologize to my wife and I'll tell uSiyabonga
you were here. Apologize to my wife then
leave" He says very angry.

Paul:" We apologize maGumede we didn't

mean any disrespect. Our old friend here
didn't tell us that he's married now. Please
accept our apology.

Me:" I understand "

Mike:" It will never happen again. G can we

talk to you? " They leave the kitchen
dragging the girl behind them who gives me
an evil look. Mbuso stands up behind me
and kisses my cheek just as madlamini
enters the kitchen greeting going to the
store room.

Him:" Are you okay?" He looks concerned.

Me:" I'm okay just shocked "

Him:" What shocked you? "

Me:" The things they said and how you

reacted towards me in front of them. I
thought..... "

Him:" My private life is my business and I

don't want them in my business and you're
my business. The other things they said
about me are not your concert" He turns me
to face him.

Me:" Why did you pretend to care about me

and act like that in front of them? " One
minute he's kind and the next he's as cold
as ice.
Him:" Oh but I do care about you because
you're worth 2milllion and so I have to look
after my investment. When we're alone you
are the girl that stole from me but in front of
other people we are a married couple who's
deeply in love with each other. Do we
understand each other sweet? "

Me:" I don't want all of this mbuso.let me go

or let me find work and I'll pay you back"

Him:" That's not how it works here. I make

the rules and if I say jump you ask how
high. I have to get all my money worth. You
do as I say or there'll be he'll to pay
sweet...don't try me ".

Me:" Please.... " My tears fall and now I

know that I'm a prisoner here and there's
nothing I can do.
Him:" You won't work ever. The only work
you'll be doing is following my instructions
doing as I say. I'll be back we have
something to talk about" He kisses me on
the mouth then leave.

I think about running away but where will I

go coz I know he'll find me but why isn't he
searching for her?....I sit down and cover
my face.

Madlamini:" Madam are you okay? "

Me:" I'm okay ma I didn't sleep well ".

Her:" Let me make you some breakfast

because the visitors finished it all and you'll
feel better afterwards but here's some
rooibos tea "

Me:" Thanks ma" I drink it

Me:" I'm going to lay down. I'll have
breakfast a little later "

Her:" Ok madam do you want me to wake

you? "

Me:" No ma. Have your breakfast and do

what you usually do" She nods then I leave
and hear voices then his voice in the study
and he sounds very angry. I don't listen but
go to our bedroom and sleep.

I feel kisses on my face neck and hands on

my boobs then stomach.... Oh no I'm still
sore.

Me:" Mbuso....im still sore "

Him:"shhhh I'll be gentle "

Me:"you were rough before "

Him:" Let me make it better then "

Me:" But I.... " I don't get to finish as he
undresses me then I noticed he's naked
too. He looks at me then separates my legs
with his shoulders and then buries his
whole face and muffs me like crazy his
tongue on my nub biting and sucking it. I
moan and hold his head move my hips and
ride his face.

My back arching now and again and

hearing him groan drives me crazy and I
come all over his face with my body
shaking. He muffs me till I come down then
he turns me to lie on my side move my hips
and ride his face.

My back arching now and again and

hearing him groan drives me crazy and I
come all over his face with my body
shaking. He muffs me till I come down then
he turns me to lie on my side lifts my left leg
up holds me tight to him then buries all of
himself deep in me and I cry out in pain and
pleasure. He doesn't give me time to adjust
to him inside me and starts to fuck me hard
and I'm griping the duvet so tight coz he's
not having mercy on me.

Me:" Aaahhhh...be...gentle..." He slows

down then pulls out. I'm in my back now
and he's between my thighs. He inserts his
dick and looks at the parts that are now
connecting us again then lifts his head and
looks at me then puts his whole body on top
of mine then his hands on my afro grip me
tight. He kisses me then fucks me hard with
long deep strokes and I feel like my womb
is going to shift

Him:"ah fuck! you feel amazing sweet...

Your skin the way you feel and taste how
you fit me me perfectly...ah fuck! "
He says that getting rough with every stroke
he gives me and I start to cry coz now I'm
not enjoying it.
Him:" Ssshhh we don't want madlamini to
hear us now do we sweet " He says muffing
my cries with his kisses. He's groaning and
moaning like he's eating one of the most
amazing things he's never tasted he then
moves my legs to his shoulders and his
hands to my waist.

Him:" Wrap your legs around dmy neck" I

do and he gets deeper.

Me:" Mbuso.....ah you're too deep" I don't if

that excites him but he puts his face on my
neck and bite me hands on my ass nails
digging on my skin then rubs my clit and I
build up and moan.

Him:" You taste so good and I can't enough

of your lovely pussy and it's all mine" He
rubs pinches then rubs my clit again and I'm
so wet.
I feel my orgasm coming so I untangle my
legs on his shoulders then he streches my
legs far apart and bangs into me. We're
both so sweaty my skin hot and dripping of
sweat. He pinches my clit lightly then softly
slaps it 3 more times and rubs it and I come
hard screaming his name.

Him:" Fuck baby milk that dick with your

greedy cunt...yes....oh shiiiiit...oh fuck! " He
climaxes after me then he falls on top of me
then says something but I don't hear him
coz he has fucked me back to sleep.

Something is burning my skin so I open my

eyes and it's the sun shining on my face. I
turn and I'm sore between my legs and they
are stiff. I hear clicking sounds and look on
my right and see mbuso on his laptop
typing fast and I can't stand the site of him. I
get up groan and he looks at me.
Him:" You look thoroughly fucked and it
suits you" I ignore him go to the bathroom
and shower quickly come back and find him
still on the bed typing.

Him:" We need to talk. Sit. "

Me:" Can we talk later because I'm hungry

Him:" I wasn't asking. You'll eat when we're

done talking " I sit my ass down.

Me:"I'm listening "

Him:" Let me tell you something about me. I

make the rules and everyone follows them.
Everyone lungi. No one disagrees with me
or say no to me" Ok he's scaring me

Him:" Rule number1: Anytime I call you pick

up the phone. It doesn't matter where you
are or what you're doing or what time it is "
" Number 2: Thomas is your driver to take
you anywhere you want to go. You do not
take an Uber or taxi. If you give Thomas
problems you'll deal with me"

"Number 3: you won't discuss what

happens here in this house with my family
your brother your cousin and my
mother...especially her"

" Number 4: I will continue to do my

business as I please and you won't
question. Just accept it "

" Number 5: I will have you whenever and

wherever I want and you won't refuse me.
We will play the perfect happy couple
around everyone and especially my parents
so they can see how madly in love we are
with each other " Im sitting here listening to
this man telling me about his stupid rules
that I have to follow. Why should we
pretend? it's not like it's ever going to
happen....right?. I hate what he's doing to
me.

Him:" And lastly lungi you do not ever

question me not follow my rules or anything
that I tell you to do and you will never ever
in your life disrespect me in front of anyone
or even me here. You will respect me and I
demand it. You hear me? " He says
seriously.

This man who's sitting in the bed Indian

style like he's going to pray is scary. The
way he talks to me is very cold and it sends
chills down my spine. I realise that fighting
him is not going to change his mind to
believe me. I just have to accept that this is
my reality and I'll have to pay for her
debts.....thats what family does right? we
protect each other and sometimes that
means taking the blame and fall for
someone.
Me:" I hear you. I'll follow your rules " He
seems a bit shocked but quickly masks it.

Him:" Good. Now that is out of the way let's

talk about the money you say you didn't
steal"

Me:" Mbuso.... "

Him:" I have the proof lungi. Here " He

gives me the his laptop and the first thing I
see is my bank account statement. I look
closely and it is my bank account and
statements some going back to last year.
My emails my text messages between
buhle and I from my phone... But how no! .
There are videos of me going to the bank
alone and in some I'm with buhle. Videos
and videos many emails talking asking her
how far she is with forgering the documents
transactions from my back account from
R50k cash to hundreds of thousands.
Everything in there points to me. But it
wasn't me.... How did she do it?.

I can't believe it. Everytime she asked me to

accompany her to the bank to withdraw
money her boyfriend sent so she could buy
herself clothes and food? and.... How did
she get hold of my phone my bank pin
because I've never told her.... How?.

Mbuso is watching me as I'm going through

everything and I feel numb. I feel sick... I
want to vomit it I can't move my legs. I'm
shocked of all the things have she has done
to me or I thought she's capable of doing
this wasn't one of them. I close the laptop
and slowly get off the bed then run to the
bathroom and vomit only water coz I
haven't had anything to eat. I get up brush
my teeth and leave the bathroom and find
mbuso sitting at the edge of the bed. I stand
the and look at him and I'm so scared.
Him:" You still denying it? " I wrap my arms
around myself and look down. I shake my
head no and he stands so fats I almost fall
on my ass. he walks slowly towards me and
I take a step back until he has backed me
against the wall.

Him:" Uthini? " ( what did you say? ) He's

angry

Me:" I'm....I'm not denying it "

Him:" I want you to say it. Say what you did!

" He roars angry

Me:" I...we stole your money" I choke up

Him:" Damn you lungi! fucking damn you! "

He does the unthinkable and warps his
hand around my throat choking me and I
cry and hold his hand and try to pull his
hand off my throat but I can't.
Me:" You're... Kill... Killing me" I say
gasping for air then he lifts his hand and
forms a fist and I scream and cover my face
thinking he's going to punch me but he
punches the wall next toy face and I hear
bones craking and I swear I peed on myself
a little. He let's go and I fall down and cry
hysterically.

Him:" Fuuuck" He roars then leaves the

bedroom banging the door and I wrap my
arms tightly around my legs crying.

Who is this man that buhle stole his money

from because I doubt they were lovers. He
doesn't look like a man who's heart is
broken but a man who wants Revenge.

CHAPTER 7.
I don't know for how long ive been sitting
here and still am when I hear him coming in
and I get scared shitless. He stands next to
me not saying anything then he bends
almost like he wants to touch me but I get
scared and scream burying my head on my
legs.

Him:“ Luh Lungi I'm …..” He tries to touch

me again

Me:" don't touch me ” I scream then stand

up and I know he can see that I peed on
myself. I go to the bathroom and take of my
clothes and get in the shower set the water
really hot. The first touch doesn't sting alot
but the second one stings but it's bearable.
I just sit down and let it fall on me.

The pain on my skin that I'm feeling from

the hot water is nothing compared to what I
feel inside. Never have I ever been scared
for my life like that because I seriously
thought he was going to punch me on my
face. I saw another side of Mbuso today
and I never ever want to experience it in my
life. What am I saying because it'sthe only
side he has been showing me but today it's
different. I saw a much more darker side of
him.

I hear the shower door opening

Him:“ what the hell Lungi! you'll give

yourself burns all over body….. fuck this
water is hot!” He curses then gets in the
shower and winces when the water touches
him and then he switches the shower off.

Him:“ come let's get you out of here ” he

says pulling me up and out of the shower
and I let him. He takes the a towel wraps it
around me and another one he dries my
hair. I'm scared of his touch but I don't want
to show him I just want him to stop touching
me. I'm only hiccuping now with my eyes
closed.

He lifts me up and I moan in pain then he

carries me to the bedroom and gently lays
me down. I wince when my back touches
the duvet.

Him:" sleep on your stomach so you don't

hurt your back. " I turn around and I feel
that my body especially my back is in pain
but I don't say anything and just lay on my
stomach.

I feel something really cold and it makes me

wince and groan in pain

Him:“ It's the Aloe Vera gel. It will heal your

skin and make it better ” he says

Me:“ will it make my heart feel better and

not hurt too? ” I sniff. He stops and takes a
deep breath then continues applying it all
over my back and it starts to feel a little
better.

Him:“ why did you make the water that hot.

You could have seriously hurt yourself you
know..... What were you thinking luh? ”

Me:“ I just wanted the pain to stop. Nothing

can hurt me more than you do ” I bury my
face on the pillow and sniff some more. I
feel him move up the bed like he wants to
lay next to me and hold me but he decides
against it.

Him:“ Luh I'm sorry…..i wasn't going to hit

you. I could never do that to you” he says it
like it hurts him to know what he almost did.

Me:“ can you leave. I want to be alone. ”

Him:“ No. I won't leave you alone like this. ”

Me:“ don't pretend as if you care about what
you're doing to me coz you don't. So can
you please just give me sometime to be
alone or I'll leave this bedroom!. ” I scream
at him

He stops gets up and I think he's looking at

me because he is quiet then I hear the
bedroom door close softly. I get off the bed
and go wear my pyjamas and then get in
bed again. I'm so hungry but I'm scared of
how madlamini is going to look at me
because I'm pretty sure she heard us
arguing.... Oh what the hell this is my house
too.

I go to the kitchen and look for my food in

the microwave then sit down and eat.
Madlamini is probably somewhere in the
house cleaning and Mbuso well I don't care
where he is.
I hear Mbuso shouting for madlamini and
she responds somewhere in the house then
I don't hear what he's asking her and it gets
quiet for a while then I feel him behind
him....his smell and I almost freeze. He
stands next to me real close and he smells
really nice.

Him:" I was looking for you. Why aren't you

in bed? ’ madlamini enters the kitchen goes
to the pantry to cook for lunch.

Me:“ I was hungry. ” he sits down next to

me madlamini comes back and starts to
cook pretending that we're not here and
like she's not feeling the tension between
us.

Her:“ can I make you something

mnumzane? ”

Him:“ no ma I'm fine. ” his voice is deep and

when he's angry or shouting it's very scary
and sexy at the same time....God what is
going on with me?.

Him: “ do you need anything else she can

make? ” I shake my head no still looking at
my food and not at him.

Him:“ when you're done here come to my

study we still need to talk. ” so you can hit
me this time?.... no dude.

Me:“ we can talk here now. ” I eat.

Him:“Lungi what did I say about you

following my rules and instructions? ”

Me:“ I'm coming!” I roll my eyes

Him:“ now. ” he says firmly

Me:“ thanks ma ” I stand up and follow him

to his study and I sit down opposite him.
Me:" what did you want to talk about? "

Him:“ I don't like your tone and lose that

attitude.” I want to roll my eyes but I don't.

Me:“ I'm listening ”

Him:“I think you realised the times we've

been intimate we didn't use any protection
and so I'm just…. ”

Me:" I'm on birth control and you're the only

man I've slept with without a condom so
don't worry I'm clean.....but are you? ’ I
think he's shocked that I asked him that.

Him:" of cos I'm clean. I'll bring my results

from my doctor "

Me:" Good because my sister was and is a

hoe so I hope u used a condom every time
you fucked her. Is that all...can I go now?”
Him:" why are you on birth control if you
weren't fucking anyone or you lied to me?"

Me:" I didn't lie. I am because you never

know who I might decide to fuck" I say
glaring at him.

Him:" You take that back now!"

Me:" why? you're fucking other people and

God knows how many so why can't I do the
same?"

Him:" I swear luh if you dare let another

man touch you I'll kill him first in front of you
then you'll see what I'll do to you!" why do I
believe?.

Me:" so you get to fuck other women and

I'm suppose to take it and keep
quiet?....no!. we have an open marriage
right? so it's fair if I also get a boyfriend" he
stands up and comes towards me and I get
up too. I'm tired of getting intimidated by
this man.

Him:" You really like getting under my skin

huh sweet? I dare you to try that and you'll
see what I'll do to this beautiful flawless skin
you have. My hand is even twitching from
wanting to spank you right here on my desk
then fuck you senseless until the only thing
you can feel breath and think about is me.
Your pussy will only get wet for me and no
one else ". oh fuck I'm getting wet. why
does hearing that turn me the fuck on?.
God have mercy on me. he sees my chest
rising and falling

Him:" you look so flushed right on. I bet if I

put my fingers in your cunt I'll find it wet. it
will clench on my fingers asking me fuck it
you want me to finger fuck you sweet and
make that ache go away...you wanna come
and scream my name?"
Me:" just stop it okay!" he smirks then steps
back raising his hands in surrender

Him:" When is your next appointment for

birth control " huh?

Me: “ why? ” I ask him

Him:“ because I want to know for sure that

you're taking your pills or whatever that you
use. ”

Me:" oh...you think I'll trap you with a

baby?" is he for real

Him:" Yes. ” he says looking straight at me

and I gasp in shock. I cannot believe he has
just said that.

Me:" don't worry I won't trap you with a kid

or kids. I'll be mad crazy to want you to be
the father of my kids. The father of my kids
will be nothing like you". wow Luh you
standing up for yourself good girl.

Him:" and who said I wanted to have kids

with You? ’ he asks wanting to laugh and
inside I really want to cry.

Me:“ the very same man who fucked me

without wearing a condom so don't worry I'll
be keeping my eggs locked tight where
your sperm can't find them. Is that all you
wanted to talk about?”

Him:“ Yes it is. For now ”

Me:" can I go now sir? ' he raises his

eyebrow and smirks

Him: “ you can go”

jerk i mumble to myself as I leave his office

and go to the cinema and watch some
cartoons. I love them and they always make
me feel better. I can't believe I was ready to
let him fuck me again.

After that incident of him almost hitting me

he slept in the other bedroom and left me
alone never wanted sex. Mbuso demands
sex he always takes it and fucks me really
hard and he makes sure I always come. At
least he's not being selfish in that
department.

I'm bored out of my mind during the day

and at night I always go to bed before
Mbuso comes home and wake up when
he's gone to work. Sometimes he comes
really late and I'll find myself waiting by my
bedroom window for his car to pull up and
when he does I'll quickly get in bed.

Madlamini is suspicious of our relationship

although she won't say anything but you
can tell she wants too but doesn't want to
overstep and I respect that. I wish I could
work but Mbuso wouldn't hear non of that
when I tried to talk to him about it a while
ago so I could pay him back for the money I
have allegedly stolen but he point blank
refused.

I talk to Sims and her kids and they always

make me laugh and happy. I always look
forward to their calls. I haven't told her
about what Mbuso is accusing me of
because I know she'll be here and probably
tell my uncle and they will be all here and
frankly I'm not ready for them to come here
while things are still tense. I'm a patient
person and I know sooner or later Mbuso
will know the truth on his own and I hope for
my sake I'll be able to forgive him. Thami
well is having the time of his life in cape
town and what he told me shocked. He said
Mbuso rented him an apartment of his own
so he will focus on his studies and so he's
not staying in res anymore and Mbuso is
also giving him monthly allowance and they
talk almost everyday...wow I never saw that
coming. I don't talk to my parents after I
tried many times to call them but they
wouldn't answer my calls. something is
going on with them...something doesn't
make sense and this thing of buhle stealing
from Mbuso makes me think my parents
might know or they know something about
it. was it all for show when my mom
pretended to be upset when buhle ran away
did she even run away or are they hiding
her?.

Thomas takes me to the mall whenever I

want to go and sometimes to company
madlamini and i to do some shopping. it is
the only time i get to get out of this house. I
talk to my brother and cousin and I miss
them dearly and I wonder if mbuso would
agree if they could come visit for the
weekend.….I just have to ask him.
Sometimes I wish I had friends here.
I've been thinking about if maybe madlamini
could knock off earlier than she usually
does so she can be home more and spend
time with her grandkids but I'll have to talk
to Mbuso when he gets home tonight. It's
midday and so I decide to bake some
muffins and make a carrot cake chocolate
and vanilla before madlamini knocks off so
she can take some for the kids.

I lose myself and do what I love most and

bake and the whole house smells really
delicious. By 3 pm I'm done so i pack some
for madlamini and the kids leave some for
mbuso then put some in a beautiful tray and
put it on a dining room table with the vanilla
cake then take my phone and dial.

Him:" Madam"

Me:“ hi Thomas can you come to the

kitchen please?”
Him:“ coming madam ” he hangs up then
few minutes after that he gets in the house"

Me:" I'm in the kitchen" I shout

Him:" madam is something wrong ?"

Thomas is tall but not to Mbuso's height
he's buff like he works out alot he's clean
and dresses well.

Me:" nothing is wrong I just wanted to ask if

you and the guys at the security room
would love some muffins and cake to have
before lunch? With coffee or tea because I
don't really know who drinks what?"

Thomas is surprised I guess for what I'm

doing or saying I don't know but he doesn't
mask the surprise on his face.

Him: “ thank you madam the guys will really

love them .” I wish he wouldn't call me
madam
Me:" can you call them to come to the
house and eat. There are five of them
excluding you right?"

Him:“ Yes madam but I can make the tea

and coffee and we'll eat outside in the
security room ” oh why doesn't he want to
eat in here and I mean there's no space
there how will they put everything there.

Me:“ You won't make any tea or coffee and

you'll eat here on that dining table. Call
them ” I turn around and leave him there.

Me:“ madlamini? ” I call her

Her:" yes madam " eish I hate that word

Me: “ You know what the security guys

drink. Can you help me make them some
tea and coffee ” I am embarrassed that I
don't know their names just Thomas only.
Her:" ok madam " apparently they are all
coffee junkies and they drink it like crazy.
We get everything ready and as soon as we
put everything down on the table they get in
like they don't really want to. My heart drops

Me:" Sanibonani " I greet first I always do

and I'm used to it.

Them:" yebo madam" they all say like they

are singing then I notice that they are
wearing all black outfits. Their suits and
even shirts are all in black and they all look
clean and you can tell those suits are
expensive. I wonder how much Mbuso pays
them. I know Mbuso is rich looking at this
house but I don't know what kind of work he
does as a business man.

Me: “ please sit and enjoy yourselves.

There's a bowl there to wash your hands
and let me know if you need anything else”
they still standing there looking awkward
and then?.

Them:“ thank you madam ” they all say and

I leave so they can be free because they
look uncomfortable around me.

Madlamini:" madam it's my knock off time

but I'll wait for these boys to finish then I'll
go"

Me: “ no ma it's okay you can go and I'll

wash the dishes. But before you leave let's
have a cup of tea with muffins ” she smiles
and goes to make the tea but I stop her.

Me:" today I'm making tea for you ma you

just sit and enjoy " she does. I hear the
guys are talking softy and I can't hear what
they are saying. I hope they like them. I
serve madlamini her tea and muffins with a
slice of carrot cake and sit down opposite
her and we eat in silence and it's not
uncomfortable.

Her:“ my kids have never made me tea.

Only my grandkids ” she says smiling sadly

Me:" well I'll be glad to make it for you now

and then" I say smiling

Her:" no madam I was making a

conversation. These muffins are really good
and this cake wow" she giggles

Me:" thank you ma and i don't mind but its

okay"

Thomas comes to the kitchen with another

guy and they place the empty tray and
mugs on the sink and start to wash the
mugs. madlamini and i just look at each
other and I want to stop them but she
shakes her head for me to leave them.
They wash and wipe them then place them
perfectly then look at us.

Him:" we wanted to say thank you for the

muffins and cake madam they were really
great" says the other guy who's like 21 or
something

Me: “ I'm glad you loved them" that makes

me happy

Thomas:" all of us really appreciate what

you shared with us madam. Thank you "

Me:" if you keep praising them like you did I

might just bake them for you guys every
week and oh before I forget can you take
madlamini home "I see smiles on their
faces when I say that.

Thomas: "Percy here will take her home "

Me:“ thank you. ” then they leave.

madlamini:“ thank you madam but you
shouldn't have. ”

Me:" I should ma because you live far. I

saved some for you and baked you too a
chocolate cake to take home to the kids"

Her:“ oh madam thank you thank you very

much they are going to love them and the
cake wow.” she comes and hugs me
tearing up.mad I'm touched because to me
this is a small thing I have done.

Me:" enjoy it with the kids and tell me

tomorrow what they thought of it. ’ she
smiles then washes her teacup and goes.
I'm left all alone in this big house…. Sigh.

I decide to cook for dinner before I go

shower so I make dumplings and mutton
stew and let it simmer while I go shower.
The green salad I'll do it before plating.
I shower quickly and I notice in the mirror
that I look bad like I had let myself go since
I've been here and that's because I have no
one to impress but I shouldn't let myself be
this drab person. I'm going to go to the
salon and do my hair.

My dumplings look really good and the stew

tastes amazing it just needs 30 minutes
then it will be perfect. I take out my phone
and decide to put some Sjava music and
sing along making the salad. I look at the
time and it's 9 pm and I'm hungry. Mbuso is
not home and I guess I'm going to be eating
alone again. I dish up for both of us put his
in the microwave and eat mine. I really
wanted to talk to him and it's not like I can
just call him and say "hey are you going to
be home tonight or not? ".

Whenever I go to bed I don't switch off the

lights in the house he does that. I only
switch them off in my bedroom. Mbuso
hasn't touched me for almost a month now
and I've seen less of him. Maybe 10 times
in a month coz he comes when I'm asleep
and leaves before I wake. I switch the lights
off then wear my pjs and get in bed and fall
asleep.

I feel really cold hands and a cold body and

I gasp in shock terrified.

Him:“ don't be scared it's me” he says like

he's exhausted and tired. I relax and
breathe out.

Him:“ take off your pjs. I told you no clothes

in this bed ” I take them off and throw them
somewhere in the bedroom. He gets off the
bed and stands at the edge.

Him:“ come here and get on your knees ”

oh God he's gonna be rough. I do as he
says get on my hands and knees and
spread my legs ready for him to enter me
even though I'm a little wet. He doesn't
enter me but what he does instead is he
slaps both my butt cheeks hard and fast 6
times and I tear up grab the sheets tight. He
rubs and rubs my clit then thrusts into me
hard and I cry out.

He isn't gentle at all he fucks and fucks and

fucks me taking my breath away and I'm
holding tight to those sheets burying my
face on the mattress. He is angry about
something I can feel it on his thrusts the
way he's breathing and gripping me and I
realise he's taking it out whatever
frustration he's feeling on me and in my
body. Mbuso is very vocal when he fucks
me but today it's different. I realise that this
is about him wanting to let go of something
and get something in return also.

So I make it possible for him although he's

fucking me like I'm a whore….who stole his
money. I relax my body and let him do
whatever he wants to do and he does. He
turns me around I lay on my back and he
continues where he stopped and fucks me.
I'll be lying if I said I'm enjoying because I'm
not even though I'm wet. I can feel he is
near because he digs his fingers in me and
slams into me and I want to scream but I
don't.

He lays his body on top of mine kissing me

hungrily then groans but it's like something
is preventing him from falling so I'll release
him.

Me:“ do whatever you want to do to me it's

okay. I'll be fine ” he stops and looks at me
deep in my eyes and i swear i saw regret in
his eyes. he kisses me then starts to move
again gently then he picks up his pace and
fucks me. He is sweating like crazy then he
wraps his hand around my throat and
squeezes lightly with every thrust groaning.
He squeezes again tight and I start to panic
and slap his hands. That seems to throw
him over the edge because I feel him grow
more inside me. I think he likes it because
he squeezes some more still fucking me
then my fighting instincts take over and I hit
his hands trying to get them off my throat
then he groans very loud and comes filling
me with his seed and it's the last thing I
remember.

He continues to do the same thing he's

been doing. Going when I'm still sleeping
and coming back when I'm sleeping and
him fucking me doggy style everyday for
the whole month. I think he likes it that way
or maybe he just doesn't want to look at
me. I have lost weight drastically and I think
its because of the stress I've been feeling
and not being able to talk to Mbuso
because he just fucks and then leaves me
is adding to that and him not saying
anything about the food I always prepare
for him the cakes and muffins because he
always eats them but a simple appreciation
from him would be nice and let me think
that he doesn't care.

It's Friday morning just after 10 and yes he

came at night turned me over fucked me
then went to sleep in the other bedroom. I
haven't slept with Mbuso in the same bed
for the last four months. He is living his life
as fun as he wants to but I'm not allowed
and frankly I don't care anymore. I get up
make my bed then shower and head to the
kitchen.

I find my breakfast made and I sit down and

eat thinking about calling Mbuso so I can
ask him if it's okay for Sims and thami to
come visit because I'm so miserable and
phone calls are not enough anymore and I
feel like I'm going to lose my mind any
minute.
I finish eating my breakfast then I decide to
go to the mall to find good books to read
read. I sms Thomas telling him to be ready
before getting my bag upstairs. I see him in
the dining room looking at mbuso's family
photos and I think he's wondering why I'm
not in any of them.

Me:" hi Thomas can we go?"

Him: “ yes madam ” he says opening the

door I follow him outside then I suddenly
feel tired and hot and I just want to lay
down and close my eyes. I don't know what
happens but my body gives out and I fall
but Thomas quickly catches me before i
close my eyes and its lights out for me.

CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 7.
A lots of African novels available here
www.allnovelworld.com
I hear a sound that keeps on beeping then
I breathe in and that smell hits me and I
realise that I'm in a hospital. What am I
doing here and how did I get here?.....then I
remember. I was feeling hot and I must
have passed out. Thomas is the one who
brought me here so I look around expecting
to see Mbuso but there is no one I'm
alone…as always. I look at myself and see
that I'm still wearing my clothes so I get up
and take out the drip they have inserted in
me then the door opens a doctor comes in
with a nurse.

Him:" Mrs Gumede you're awake I'm Doctor

Tambo. You took out the drip....naughty are
we how are you feeling? " he says looking
at a chart and smiling.

Me:“ I feel good....I'm just tired doctor ”

Doctor:“ for how long have you've been
feeling like this? ” he takes that light thing
and shines it on my eyes one at a time.

Me:“ I don't know. A month maybe. Is there

something wrong with me doc? ” I don't like
what I'm feeling now I'm freaking out. He
takes his finger places it on my wrist then
feels my heartbeat.

Doctor:“ well how do I put this. You look

exhausted like you're stressed not eating
and definitely not sleeping at all. I think your
husband should be here before I tell you
this ” he says seriously... huh what's going
on here?

Me:“ doctor I'll be fine. I've been dealing

with something that has been stressing me
out but I'll take it easy. You can tell me
whatever it is and I'll let my husband know
when I get home ”
Doctor:“ but it is important that he is also
here he….”

Me:“ Doctor please!. We don't have that

kind of marriage with my husband and I
seriously doubt he's going to show up here
so please just tell me so I can go home and
rest ” I shout and beg him at the same time
losing my cool he's shocked then gives me
a sad smile.

Me:“ I'm sorry doc I didn't mean to snap at

you” I say covering my face becauseI feel
like everything is getting too much for me.

Doctor:“ It's purely understandable Mrs

Gumede for a woman who Is pregnant.
Congratulations you are 6 weeks pregnant ”
what? No! no! no! no! no!…….I can't be!.

Me:“ No doctor I can't be pregnant…..I'm on

birth control! ” tears fall down.
Doctor“ These things happen especially
when you are stressed because the stress
affects your chemical balance and so any
drugs that you take may be affected
because of the stress. If God has decided
that it's time then it is. Even science can't
deny that but you know you have options.
I'll prescribe some antibiotics and vitamins
for you and refer you to a gynea who will be
able to help you should you decide to keep
the pregnancy or terminate.” I can't believe
I'm actually pregnat. He is going to kill me
he's going to lose it!.

Doctor:“ Mrs gumede are you okay ” he

asks concerned

Me:“ I'm….im fine. It's just that I can't

believe someone is growing inside of me ” I
put my hand on my stomach and I have
mixed feelings about this.
Doctor:“ I'm sure you'll make a great
mother. You're going to need all the support
you can get with whatever decision you
decide to make. Remember Mrs gumede
no stress please and you lost a huge
amount of weight and you need to get it
back so you can be able to carry that child.
No stress no lifting of anything heavy. Eat
and rest. Here are your discharged forms
and the details of the Gynecologist and the
medicine you have to get from the chemist
Goodluck.” he then leaves with the nurse
following behind him and I'm all alone.

I look at my hand bag and its just next to

my bed I get up and leave the room and
see that Thomas is talking on the phone
and he doesn't see me so I sneak out going
to the other direction as quickly as possible.
I look for my phone find it then request an
uber and within 3 minutes it is here. I get in
and decide to book myself into a hotel
because I need time to think about what I'm
going to do.

I pay for the night then I make my way to

my room. I get in locking the door then
shower. I don't even order room service. I
switch my phone off and get in bed but
struggle to sleep because what I'm thinking
is what if Mbuso was there and heard that
I'm pregnant what was he going to say or
do?. Do I want to keep this pregnancy will it
change things between me and Mbuso?
Sponsored
will I make a good mother like Sims? will I
love my child unconditionally and do I know
what unconditional love feels like because I
have never felt it from my own parents and
the man I'm pregnant for. will he accept him
or her will he be happy that I'm the woman
whom he got pregnant?. Maybe if I sleep i
will wake up tomorrow and realise that it
was all just a nightmare and I'm not really
pregnant.
I wake up the next morning and I don't want
to leave the hotel but I must. I shower then
call an uber and then checkout and make
my way to Rivonia.

It drops me off outside the gate and the

security guys let me in then get me in a car
again that drops me off at the front of the
door. For some reason I'm nervous and I
know it's because I don't know how Mbuso
is going react but I open the door and find
him on the phone shouting at someone to
look harder. I see that guy who washed the
dishes with Thomas who's name is Percy
with two other security guys and in the
dining room there are 3 oh so very good
looking men and one is on the phone the
other typing furiously on his laptop and the
other drinking whiskey so early this
morning.
They stop talking when they see me and
Mbuso turns also and looks at me fuming
he is fucking mad like he hasn't slept the
whole night. he looks raged angry and I
almost regret why I came back. I should
have ran away the moment I got a chance.

Mbuso:“ Where have you been Lungi ?” He

sounds calm too calm but his posture says
otherwise when he's asking me that and it
scares me. I don't answer him. I close the
door behind me and face these men.

Me:“ Sanibonani " Mbuso folds his hands

across his chest and looks at me.

Them:“ Sawubona nkosazana ” they all say

at the same time….uh okay.

Me:“ Can I make you something to eat?” I

have manners you know.
Oneguy: “ Madlamini is making us
something but we would love to have your
famous muffins” I nod then make way to the
kitchen and I know i have to pass mbuso
and I'm scared. I look at him and he hasn't
moved ever since I got in.

Mbuso:“ you want me to repeat

myself…okay I will. Where the fuck have
you been!?” he's now shouting and his
friends I think get silent.

Me:“ Mbuso please I just wanted to get out

of this house and breathe ” I move past him
but he grabs me halting me and I almost
scream.

Him:“ get out of this house! What is fucken

wrong with this house? ” tears fill my eyes

Me:" let me go please and we'll talk about it

when we are alone Mbuso not now. I want
to make them something to eat".
Him:“ answer me. What's wrong with this
house!?” he shouts

Me:“ You. You are everything that's wrong

in this house and I wanted to be as far
away from you as possible ” the house is
dead quiet you'd swear that it's only me and
Mbuso.

Him:“ what did you just say?. Where did

you Go? are you fucken cheating on me
Lungi !? ” what how dare he says that when
he knows my every move.

Me:“ fuck off Mbuso you hear me. Fuck

you! ” I try to pull away from him but he
slaps me so hard across my face and I fall
down then my nose bleeds and I'm shocked
that Mbuso has just hit me. I look at my
bloody hand then look at him and he is as
shocked as I am. That was a klap the kind
that makes you see stars yoh. tears blind
me and I feel my face heating up from the
klap.

Him:‘' Sweet……I'm sorry I'm really sorry….

I" he tries to touch me to get me up but I
hold my hands out stopping him.

Me: “ I went to a hotel after I got discharged

from the hospital and slept there then I
came straight here. I wanted to be alone at
a different environment. This is too much
for me…." I use my shirt to wipe myself as I
get up.

Me:“…..you don't want me to work you don't

want me to have friends and I haven't seen
my family for almost 5 months now. I'm
always in this house you know my every
move then you have some fucken nerve to
ask me if I'm cheating on you?. I don't give
you trouble I don't ask you any questions
where you've been and with who. Have I
given you any reason that I might be doing
something with someone because if I was I
wouldn't be this miserable. You came and
turned my life outside down and for the
worst. The only thing I know and have
received from you is pain and misery and
it's all because of something I didn't do that
you still accuse me of doing. Maybe if I was
cheating then that person would give me
what I don't have and that is Love. ” He
looks at me shocked and hurt not believing
what I'm saying.

Me:“ you didn't come to the hospital to

check up on me and to find out what is
wrong. You don't ask me if I'm okay or why

i don't know what I'm going to do. I cry
myself to sleep.

I hear a sound that keeps on beeping then
I breathe in and that smell hits me and I
realise that I'm in a hospital. What am I
doing here and how did I get here?.....then I
remember. I was feeling hot and I must
have passed out. Thomas is the one who
brought me here so I look around expecting
to see Mbuso but there is no one I'm
alone…as always. I look at myself and see
that I'm still wearing my clothes so I get up
and take out the drip they have inserted in
me then the door opens a doctor comes in
with a nurse.

Him:" Mrs Gumede you're awake I'm Doctor

Tambo. You took out the drip....naughty are
we how are you feeling? " he says looking
at a chart and smiling.

Me:“ I feel good....I'm just tired doctor ”

Doctor:“ for how long have you've been

feeling like this? ” he takes that light thing
and shines it on my eyes one at a time.

Me:“ I don't know. A month maybe. Is there

something wrong with me doc? ” I don't like
what I'm feeling now I'm freaking out. He
takes his finger places it on my wrist then
feels my heartbeat.

Doctor:“ well how do I put this. You look

exhausted like you're stressed not eating
and definitely not sleeping at all. I think your
husband should be here before I tell you
this ” he says seriously... huh what's going
on here?

Me:“ doctor I'll be fine. I've been dealing

with something that has been stressing me
out but I'll take it easy. You can tell me
whatever it is and I'll let my husband know
when I get home ”

Doctor:“ but it is important that he is also

here he….”

Me:“ Doctor please!. We don't have that

kind of marriage with my husband and I
seriously doubt he's going to show up here
so please just tell me so I can go home and
rest ” I shout and beg him at the same time
losing my cool he's shocked then gives me
a sad smile.

Me:“ I'm sorry doc I didn't mean to snap at

you” I say covering my face becauseI feel
like everything is getting too much for me.

Doctor:“ It's purely understandable Mrs

Gumede for a woman who Is pregnant.
Congratulations you are 6 weeks pregnant ”
what? No! no! no! no! no!…….I can't be!.

Me:“ No doctor I can't be pregnant…..I'm on

birth control! ” tears fall down.

Doctor“ These things happen especially

when you are stressed because the stress
affects your chemical balance and so any
drugs that you take may be affected
because of the stress. If God has decided
that it's time then it is. Even science can't
deny that but you know you have options.
I'll prescribe some antibiotics and vitamins
for you and refer you to a gynea who will be
able to help you should you decide to keep
the pregnancy or terminate.” I can't believe
I'm actually pregnat. He is going to kill me
he's going to lose it!.

Doctor:“ Mrs gumede are you okay ” he

asks concerned

Me:“ I'm….im fine. It's just that I can't

believe someone is growing inside of me ” I
put my hand on my stomach and I have
mixed feelings about this.

Doctor:“ I'm sure you'll make a great

mother. You're going to need all the support
you can get with whatever decision you
decide to make. Remember Mrs gumede
no stress please and you lost a huge
amount of weight and you need to get it
back so you can be able to carry that child.
No stress no lifting of anything heavy. Eat
and rest. Here are your discharged forms
and the details of the Gynecologist and the
medicine you have to get from the chemist
Goodluck.” he then leaves with the nurse
following behind him and I'm all alone.

I look at my hand bag and its just next to

my bed I get up and leave the room and
see that Thomas is talking on the phone
and he doesn't see me so I sneak out going
to the other direction as quickly as possible.
I look for my phone find it then request an
uber and within 3 minutes it is here. I get in
and decide to book myself into a hotel
because I need time to think about what I'm
going to do.

I pay for the night then I make my way to

my room. I get in locking the door then
shower. I don't even order room service. I
switch my phone off and get in bed but
struggle to sleep because what I'm thinking
is what if Mbuso was there and heard that
I'm pregnant what was he going to say or
do?. Do I want to keep this pregnancy will it
change things between me and Mbuso?
Sponsored
will I make a good mother like Sims? will I
love my child unconditionally and do I know
what unconditional love feels like because I
have never felt it from my own parents and
the man I'm pregnant for. will he accept him
or her will he be happy that I'm the woman
whom he got pregnant?. Maybe if I sleep i
will wake up tomorrow and realise that it
was all just a nightmare and I'm not really
pregnant.

I wake up the next morning and I don't want

to leave the hotel but I must. I shower then
call an uber and then checkout and make
my way to Rivonia.

It drops me off outside the gate and the

security guys let me in then get me in a car
again that drops me off at the front of the
door. For some reason I'm nervous and I
know it's because I don't know how Mbuso
is going react but I open the door and find
him on the phone shouting at someone to
look harder. I see that guy who washed the
dishes with Thomas who's name is Percy
with two other security guys and in the
dining room there are 3 oh so very good
looking men and one is on the phone the
other typing furiously on his laptop and the
other drinking whiskey so early this
morning.

They stop talking when they see me and

Mbuso turns also and looks at me fuming
he is fucking mad like he hasn't slept the
whole night. he looks raged angry and I
almost regret why I came back. I should
have ran away the moment I got a chance.

Mbuso:“ Where have you been Lungi ?” He

sounds calm too calm but his posture says
otherwise when he's asking me that and it
scares me. I don't answer him. I close the
door behind me and face these men.

Me:“ Sanibonani " Mbuso folds his hands

across his chest and looks at me.

Them:“ Sawubona nkosazana ” they all say

at the same time….uh okay.

Me:“ Can I make you something to eat?” I

have manners you know.

Oneguy: “ Madlamini is making us

something but we would love to have your
famous muffins” I nod then make way to the
kitchen and I know i have to pass mbuso
and I'm scared. I look at him and he hasn't
moved ever since I got in.

Mbuso:“ you want me to repeat

myself…okay I will. Where the fuck have
you been!?” he's now shouting and his
friends I think get silent.

Me:“ Mbuso please I just wanted to get out

of this house and breathe ” I move past him
but he grabs me halting me and I almost
scream.

Him:“ get out of this house! What is fucken

wrong with this house? ” tears fill my eyes

Me:" let me go please and we'll talk about it

when we are alone Mbuso not now. I want
to make them something to eat".

Him:“ answer me. What's wrong with this

house!?” he shouts

Me:“ You. You are everything that's wrong

in this house and I wanted to be as far
away from you as possible ” the house is
dead quiet you'd swear that it's only me and
Mbuso.
Him:“ what did you just say?. Where did
you Go? are you fucken cheating on me
Lungi !? ” what how dare he says that when
he knows my every move.

Me:“ fuck off Mbuso you hear me. Fuck

you! ” I try to pull away from him but he
slaps me so hard across my face and I fall
down then my nose bleeds and I'm shocked
that Mbuso has just hit me. I look at my
bloody hand then look at him and he is as
shocked as I am. That was a klap the kind
that makes you see stars yoh. tears blind
me and I feel my face heating up from the
klap.

Him:‘' Sweet……I'm sorry I'm really sorry….

I" he tries to touch me to get me up but I
hold my hands out stopping him.

Me: “ I went to a hotel after I got discharged

from the hospital and slept there then I
came straight here. I wanted to be alone at
a different environment. This is too much
for me…." I use my shirt to wipe myself as I
get up.

Me:“…..you don't want me to work you don't

want me to have friends and I haven't seen
my family for almost 5 months now. I'm
always in this house you know my every
move then you have some fucken nerve to
ask me if I'm cheating on you?. I don't give
you trouble I don't ask you any questions
where you've been and with who. Have I
given you any reason that I might be doing
something with someone because if I was I
wouldn't be this miserable. You came and
turned my life outside down and for the
worst. The only thing I know and have
received from you is pain and misery and
it's all because of something I didn't do that
you still accuse me of doing. Maybe if I was
cheating then that person would give me
what I don't have and that is Love. ” He
looks at me shocked and hurt not believing
what I'm saying.

Me:“ you didn't come to the hospital to

check up on me and to find out what is
wrong. You don't ask me if I'm okay or why
I didn't let you know I'm not going to be
sleeping here. It has always been about
you and what you want and you have never
asked me what do I want am I okay am I
happy or how do I feel and it's because you
don't care Mbuso you don't. You take me
whenever and wherever you want. You fuck

Mbuso.

One day I was out with the guys and we

went to this club they usually go to but it
was my first time going there. I saw this girl
she looked good then we started flirting and
it had been a while since i was with a
woman so then I fucked her that very same
night in the club. Eveytime we went to that
club she was always there and I would fuck
her everytime and then one day I took her
to my house and fucked her there.
Tom told me to stay away from that girl
because he said she was a gold digger and
i did see that but I didn't care because she
was a great lay and to me that was it but it
turned out to be the biggest mistake of my
life taking her to my house that is. I
shouldn't have done it because she started
to come to my house unannounced and it
did bother me but then i I'll be using my dick
and not brain and I'll take her to my office
and i would always fuck her there until this
one time I left her in my house to deal with
something and I think it is then that she
went through my things and saw
confidential papers.

I didn't notice that something was wrong

until one day my accountant showed up at
my office and asked me how can 2 millions
rands get transfered from my account and
not inform him to get the papers ready. I
was shocked then did what i do best and
used my I.T skills and boom all the paper
trail led to Buhle and her sister Lungi. I
didn't know buhle like that because well
what we had was a physical relationship
and nothing more. I never took time to
investigate her and find out about her
family. so when I decided to investigate I
found out that she has a beautiful younger
sister.

Investigated so more and the more I

investigated I found out shocking things
about buhle's parents. I sent frank to go to
Standerton and follow lungi and her parents
and record their every move. The paper trail
and messages started as them joking
between themselves then it changed when
buhle told lungi about me and how rich i am
then lungi said to the message it read " well
lets steal him and see if he notices. if he
doesnt we'll continue to do that until we
leave him with nothing on his personal and
business account. Then when he sees what
you did you'll declare your undying love for
him and tell him you wanted to be the only
woman in his life and so what you did was
your way of getting his attention. Then he'll
have no choice but to marry you" and buhle
being a gold digger she is agreed.

I coulnd't believe it so I called buhle to

come over to my place and she did. She
thought she was here to fuck but I had
other plans for her. I took her to guest
bedroom and the moment i6 closed the
door i slapped her choked her and kicked
her a few times before I tied her up then
took my belt and beat the shit out of her
asking her how the hell she has the guts to
steal from me and she denied everything
and blamed it on her sister. I could feel the
jealousy she had for her sister and it was
sickning.

Buhle is an escourt girl. She's what others

call a sophisticated call girl. she deals only
with rich men. I didnt know at the time i met
her but found out during the time we were
fucking and I didnt care because she has
never asked me for money and so I knew
that she liked me more than I did and
wanted more from me. So I told her that
she was going to work for me as a call girl
and pay all my money back and if not i'm
going to her family and i'm going to take
everything they own and then tell them that
she's a prostitute and not working at a law
firm. She begged me not to and instead
offered me her sister because they were in
this together.

She said her father is expecting a rich man

from somewhere to come and buy lungi off.
Basically what she said is " My father is
going to sell lungi to some rich man whos
expected to come within the next few
weeks". I was so shocked I couldnt belive
what I was hearing. How could this man sell
his own daughter and I was disgusted. So I
came up with this plan that I will tell my
parents that I want to marry buhle and they
would believe me because twice they found
me in compromising situation with her and
so it wouldnt be hard to convince them. My
family would then take the letter to her
family and it is then that she will tell them
about how rich i am and after the first time
my family comes she would be there but
the second time she will go missing on the
week of the negotiations to come here to
my house and so she can sign the paper
work that she agrees to work for me and
then i'll save her sister and also make her
pay too for stealing my money.

I made her sign the papers the next

morning because I didn't trust her and she
did then during the week i told my family
and that i was in a hurry to marry her
because they want to marry her to
someone else I love her and I don't want to
lose her of which all of that were lies.
They didnt waste anytime because my
mom has been nagging me about getting
married. but first I had to go and talk to her
uncle because frank said the uncle is very
close and protective of lungi and so I
wanted to be sure that lungi is really the
mastermind behind stealing my money.

(Mbuso's flashback meeting with lungi's

uncle.)

We arrive to this town and its okay not bad

at all. Frank drives to the section where
Lungi's uncle lives and stops a few houses
up the road.

Frank:" G. he lives at that house" frank

points to a bid house i think it has about 6
rooms a garage and has a very nice lawn
outside. its abeautiful home.

Me:" is he home? "

frank:" yeah he is. You want me to come
with you? " i laugh

Me:" you do know i can protect myself

right? "

Frank:" and its my job to protect you. i dont

care that you know how to " i shake my
head

Me:" Ok mr body gaurd lets go "

we get out of the car and make our way to

the Mazibuko home and we find the man of
the house outside reading a newspaper. He
stops reading and looks at us then stands
up and comes to us.

Him:" Not here. lets go" just like that? frank

and i look at each other confused

Me:" Sir Mr Mazibuko...."

Him:" People like you never come in this
location and especially my house. so it
means one of my two brothers daughters is
in trouble or it's my nephew who's giving
you trouble. so if I'm right lets get in that car
of yours to go talk somewhere and if I'm not
feel free to enter my this yard.

Me:" we'll go to my car sir" we get into the

car

Him:" ah mr bodygaurd feel free to drive

around " frank gives me what the fuck look
and i almost chuckle. this man sitting next
to me is very intimidating and i dont get
intimidated that easily.

Me:" sir my name is Mbuso Gumede and

I'm here about uBuhle your niece" he
shakes his head

Him:" aw Phakathwayo. what did that child

do now?"
Something tells me that I can trust this man
and so I decide to tel him the whole truth
about how I met buhle and how she and her
younger sister stole my money. He looks at
me wanting to laugh.

Him:" Buhle has and always will be very

manipulative. She's a very good lier and will
say anything to get out of trouble. The
trouble that child has done will shock you
and so this her stealing your money doesnt
shock me".

Me:" which is why I'm finding it hard to

believe that it was all her sister's idea".

Him:" Lungi doesnt have a mean bone in

her body. she doesnt even know how to lie
shes a bad lier and so you want to tell me
that my sweet niece stole your money? are
you fucking with me?"
Me:" Sir im serious.."

Him:" Boy listen to me and listen to me

good. lungi didnt steal your money. buhle is
the one who did and she framed her and
someone helped her do it. Now is that all
you came to talk about?" i dont know if i
should tell him this. What if he doesnt
believe what i'm going to say about her
brother? but hell I've got nothing to lose.

Me:" there's something else. she said your

brother is planning to sell lungi for one
million rands to some men who's expected
to show up on the next coming week" he
sits up straight looks at me and the next
thing I see is a gun on my face and I have
no idea when it came from. Then frank
stops the car taking his out and points it to
lungi's uncle

Him:" what the fuck did you just say?" he

asks raged
frank:" put the gun down or I'll blow your
brains off right here right now"

Him:" tell your bodygaurd here to drop his

gun and continue to drive and if he doesnt
I'll blow this car right now".

Me:" we will be all blown then. Sir I'm

serious about this. Frank put the gun
down...now!" he does and so does lungi's
uncle. I take the laptop that's in the car and
show him the part where buhle confesses
about her faher and the plans he has for
lungi and what I think we must do. He is so
angry he's fucken raged.

Him:" so this is what will happen. you'll

show up on the second time of the
negotiations and you'll keep buhle at your
house in the meantime so she won't show
up for the negotiations and ruin everything.
I'll convince my brother to let you marry
lungi instead so she will be safe and not
sold to whatever sick fuck he wants to sell
her to. I'll give you the money and you'll
take it as the 2 million buhle stole and the 1
million he will want."

What the actual fuck is going on here?.

Who is this man and how the hell is he
going to come up with 3 million rands.
Something is going on here.

Me:" who are you exactly "

Him:" just a cleaner" then he laughs. i look

at frank and he is spooked.

Me:" how are you going to get that money

because no offence sir..."

Him:" you stop it right there boy. Don't ask

questions you are not ready to hear the
answers of. I'll be in touch." he opens the
door
Him:" Next time you try to follow me frank
don't be seen or I'll blow up that car! and oh
before I forget go to someone to take that
bomb off your igntion key before i change
my mind" he closes the door laghing leaves
us looking dumfounded.

frank:" who the fuck is this man G"

Me:" I have no fucken idea" lets get out of

here.

Lungis uncle watches them leave then he

takes his phone and makes a call

Person:" victor"

UncleVictor:" We have a problem he wants

to sell her to someone" he listens as the
other person on the phone curses and
break things.
Person:" Tell me everything " he tells the
other person what mbuso told him and they
both come up with a plan and then lungi's
uncle calls mbuso.

My stomach keeps growling and I feel so
hungry. I forgot I hadn't eaten anything
since last night and when I woke up today. I
touch my stomach and it hits me again that
i am pregnant. God what am I going to do
because he's going to kill me. I roll over and
land on something or rather someone. I
hold my breath while I open my eyes and
see Mbuso looking straight at me smiling
and I'm shocked. why is he smiling what is
he so happy about because i'm not happy
and i can still feel that klap on my face.
I have never seen this man smile and his
smile takes my breath away. He has a
dimple on his left cheeck and those pink full
almost pink lips that drive me crazy
whenever he kisses me. He has full very
dark eyebrows and full lashes and I'm so
jealous. His cappuccino smooth skin bold
head and that beard that has few silver
hairs. Mbuso has a great body he works out
and he's very well toned not too toned like
gym freaks but we'll enough and I love his
tall sexy body that has that v-thing on their
lower stomach going straight to that long
thick dick. God!.

Him: “ breathe out before you faint on me”

his breath hits my face as he talks and I
swear I get wet or I was wet before he even
said anything. I breath out and look at him.

Him:“ you must be hungry. I can hear your

stomach growling ” I panic and take my
hand off but he pulls me very close to him
and I feel his rigid member and I swallow.

Me: “ Mbuso….”

Him: ‘ shhhh let's feed you first get up. ’ I do

and he brings me a plate full of English
breakfast with water and juice and I eat.
He's looking at me differently and I feel very
weird I just wish he would leave me alone.

Me" did madlamini make this?"

Him:" no i did" i look at him shocked

Him:" you dont believe me?"

Me: “ no i dont. are you not hungry? ”

Him: “ No. I did eat something earlier ” I

don't believe him so I cut a piece of
pancake with bacon and eggs and take it to
his mouth
Me: “ open. ” I say and he smiles a full
blown smile God he's so beautiful.

Him: “ you want to feed me?"

Me:" I know youre hungry so open your

mouth" he stands up and goes to the
bathroom and comes with a wet cloth then
takes my hands and wipes them the he
wipes his too.

Him:" use your hands to feed me" oh ok. i

take the food and bring it to his mouth then
he opens up and i put it in he takes it from
my fingers then i feel his tongue on my
fingers nibbling. he does the same and
feeds me too and we're just silent eating the
food and watching each other. It feels so
amazing like its the most intimate thing we
have ever done to each other. When he
swallows when he drinks the juice and his
adams apple goes up and down I look at it
and i just want to put my tongue in there
and feel it moving up and down my mouth
yeah im crazy. He feeds me until I get full
and can't eat anything more.

Me:" I'm full I cant swallow anything else"

Him:" you sure?"

Me:" I am" . We both get silent and I know

we can't ignore the elephant in the room.
He takes the tray off the bed and puts it on
the dressing table then goes to the
bathroom and I the hear water running the
he comes back.

Him:" come and get in the bath" i get up

and take off my clothes and I look at my
stomach again and I know its too early for it
to show so he won't notice anything. I go to
the bathroom and get in the bath and it
smells nice. I sigh when I get in and close
my eyes.
Him:" can I join you?" I keep quiet and look
at him
Me:" you can if you want"

Him:" I am asking you if I can join you and if

it's okay"

Me:" get in mbuso " he takes off his clothes

then joins me and gets behind me then
drags my body to his my back connecting
with his front. He washes my back with his
hands then his hands come to my front raps
them around me and lays my head to his
chest.

Him:" what did the doctor say what caused

you to faint"

Me:' you are the reason I fainted. You

stress me" he breathes out loud
Him:" I know I do and I just dont know what
to do and how to do this"

Me:" this what? this marriage?. I'm the one

whos been doing something to make it work
and what is it exactly that you did besides
hurting me and abusing me evrytime?"

Him:" abusing you? i wasn't abusing you.

Yes I was a little rough sometimes but I
never abused you lungi" I chuckle

Me:" of cause you'll say that because an

abuser will say that. Tell me mbuso what
have you done to find buhle so she can
also pay as I am paying. when is she going
to get slapped and choked?"

Him:" luh please dont talk like that. She is

still missing but Themba said he'll checkout
this thing of the money. There are people
who are looking for her and she will be
found and she is going to pay for what she
did as you say she framed you".

Me:" let me tell you something about my

sister. she's the type to get anything she
wants and she'll do whatever it takes for
that to happen. Shes the type of ' if I cant
have it so will you'. everything has to be
hers and hers alone. She's smart but uses
her smartness for wrong things and
reasons." I move away from him turn and
face him.

Me:" I dont know the kind of relationship

you both have or had but I know you didnt
love her. You are not a man suffering from
betrayal and a broken heart but you are out
for blood and revenge and I'm the tool you
will use until you get it out of your system"

Him:" your sister isn't the person you think

she is."
Me:" shes not what?. a liar manipulator a
conniving bitch a fraud a thief. she's not all
those things?"

Him:" she is all of those things. I thought

maybe you are going to say good things
about her"

Me:" oh but there are good things I can say

about her. She used to love me when we
grew up would look out for me
Sponsored
would look out for me did6nt want any boys
around me. She was my big sister and I
loved her. I was her own personal doll. She
would dress me up and take me to her
friends to show me off. But things changed
she started pulling away from me and
changed towards me and I knew that it was
our mom's doing. She has always been
jealous of our relationship and her wish
happend and we grew apart with buhle but
the were times when she will come back
from joburg take me shopping with herso all
the things sisters would do and we'll go to
the bank to withdraw the money you sent
her you her boyfriend. What puzzled me is
that she will always withdraw huge amounts
of money and give some to my parents.
Mbuso have you asked yourself why our
house is that big and beautiful and both my
parents drive the latest Mercedes and even
buhle drives a Q7 and she's working at a
law firm and she's not even a lawyer. My
mom's a teacher and dad's a warder and
you think I stole your money". he stays
quiet listening to me

Me:" You and buhle would have made a

great couple because you're both fucked
up. Do you ever regret the things you do to
me? do you feel anything in that cold heart
of yours mbuso?. Do you remember what
you said to me when we laid in bed as i was
crying in your arms the day we first met?"
he looks nervous then moves forward to me
tries to touch me

Me:" dont mbuso. do you remember what I

asked you and what you said? " he stops.

Him:" I said alot of things that day. I dont

remember?" I sigh disappointed.

Me:" of cause you dont remember because

it didn't mean anything to you but to me it
did".

Him:" luh I dont how to do this it wasn't

suppose to be like this" I suddenly get
angry

Me:" How was it suppose to be like hmm?!

why didnt you call the police and get me
arrested? why aren't the police involved and
searching for my sister? "
Him:" I dont deal with the police. I deal with
things in my own way"

Me:" who doesn't deal with the police?

unless.....oh my God" I get out of the bath
fast and almost slip and fall then run to the
guest bedroom.

Him:" what are you doing? youll hurt

yourself" he says running after me and I
close the door and lock it before he tries to
open it.

Me:" youre a criminal. That is why the

police were never invloved. oh my God
what did i get myself into?!"

Him:" lungi I'm not a criminal okay?. open

the door so we can talk like adults"

Me:" dont lie to me. if you're not a criminal

then why do you have bodyguards and
drivers. Only criminals do that."
Him:" my job is dangerous luh. I have to
have people protecting me at all times and
all those i..i care about too"

Me:" you dont care about me so why are

you protecting me?"

Him:" I do care about you and I always want

to keep you safe and protected"

Me:" and who's protecting me agaisnt you

because you're as bad as the ones you are
being protected from"

Him:" We all have people who are watching

over us lungi and as bad as this sounds but
I am protecting you"

Me:" well then answer me this honestly"

Him:" I'll try "

Me:" no you will answer me this."

Him:" ok I will "

Me:" do you really believe that I stole your

money?"

Him:" lungi please!."

Me:" No answer me!" I shout

Him:" NO!. I dont okay? Fuck! " i stand

there looking at the door shocked. I open
the door and see him standing there stark
naked

Me:" what did you just say?"

Him:" I dont believe you stole the money.

This whole thing stinks of your fucken
sister" he says looking at me
Me:" when did you come to the realisation
that I didnt?"

Him:" I've already said enough and I'm not

going to say anything more"

Me:" I deserve to know. This is my whole

life we're talking about"

Him:" I can't tell you that okay. just fucken

leave it!" he says getting frustrated

Me:" I'm not leaving it. tell me now!" i

scream at him

Him:" Its fucken bigger than the both of us

okay!. Fuck luh "

Me:" what does that mean its bigger than

the both of us?"

Him:" you dont fucken listen dont you?. I

said leave it"
Me:" ok I"ll leave it then. I want a divorce. I
want out" He looks at me like i'm crazy and
start to laugh. he actually laughs a deep
belly laugh then stops. Tears roll down my
eyes as I see him laughing tears and all like
i'm tickling him or hes watching something
funny. I'm that something funny because
he's looking at me.

Him:" sweet you're not going anywhere

because if you leave this marriage and
house you're dead"

Me:" then you might as well kill me now

because I'm leaving this house and I want a
divorce".

Him:" I mean it when I say you will be dead.

It's not going to be me who kills you but
your parents"
Me:" you sick fuck!. You now realise that I
want nothing to do with you then you think
you better accuse my parents of wanting to
kill me so I wont leave you and this sham of
a marriage what is wrong with you?."

Him:" They are not your parents lungi". he

says seriously and I look at him and laugh.
i'6m the one who's laughing now. I laugh
and laugh. He watches me then comes
getting closer to me slowly then my laugh
turns to hiccups then sniffs then cries.

Me:" you know I thought maybe we'll have a

chance and make this work but the more I
get to know you is the more I get disgusted
of you. How can you say something like
that?"

Him:" look at yourself and look at them the

whole family lungi. You look like no one in
that family. Even your extended family
members and grandparents look nothing
like you".

Me:" maybe they adopted me. Many kids

get adopted and its okay but you dont have
to accuse them of wanting to do something
like this." I choke up

Him:" they didn't adopt you. They killed your

mother and stole you lungi." he looks at me
and I see sadness regret remorse in his
eyes and see the truth too.

Me:" Nooooooooooooo......God no! No No!"

i fall on my knees and cry and heholds me.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 9.

This can't be true. Why would they kill my

mother and not kill me too but decide to
raise me as one of their kids. What kind of
people are these?. Where was my father
when all of this was happening and where
is he and is he even alive. Did my mother's
family know about me?

Me:" I want Frank to go to Standerton to get

my uncle. I want him here.... I want Sims
and thami here too "

Him:" I thought we would use this time to

talk and fix things between us "

Me:" Talk mbuso?. There's no talking. I

want out of this marriage. We had time to
talk and try to fix things between us but you
we're out and fucking God knows how
many women and now you want to fix
things?. Hell no!.

Him:" Luh please! "

Me:" I want my family here before the end

of this day Mbuso do you hear me? "
Him:" Why don't I send Frank to go fetch
sims and thami then your uncle will come
over after some time? "

Me:" no. you're scared that he's going to

see how you've been treating me right? well
I don't care mbuso. I want answers and I
know he's the only one who'll tell me truth.
Do I have to call him myself or you'll go and
tell Frank.

Him:" I'll go. let's get you dressed up and

warm" He picks me up and takes me to our
bedroom lotions my body then I go and
wear my clothes and leave him getting
dressed.

I go to the kitchen and start preparing

dinner for my family. I keep sniffing and
wiping my tears off
Him:" we can order take aways. you don't
have to cook" he says sitting down and
watching me

Me:" leave me alone and get my family

here"

Him:" don't cut yourself please. " I ignore

him and continue chopping.

He looks at me wanting to say something

but Frank enters the kitchen

Him:" afternoon Madam "

Me:" Hi Frank "

Him:" I need to talk to Frank in my office

before he leaves "

Me:" ok " he sighs then they leave. I

breathe out deeply and put a hand on my
stomach. what am I going to do. I want out
of this marriage and mbuso out of my life
but now I'm pregnant for him. Am I going to
keep this pregnancy? do I even want to
keep it and what about this marriage? "

My trian of thought is disturbed when I hear

a phone vibrating and I look up and see
mbuso forgot his phone on the table. Do I
look at it or take it to him. We always hear
don't ever touch a man's phone because
you might find and see what your looking
for but what do I have to lose.... nothing.

I look around and see if he heard it or

coming to fetch it but no so I take it and see
that his screen saver is a picture of me
sleeping. I slide across then It unlocks
because it doesn't have a pin. Who doesn't
put a pin on their phone. I see a message
from an unsaved number so I click on it and
it says
Message:" This is getting too much for me
and I'm losing my mind. The lies have to
stop so I think it's time we tell her about us "
I feel my heart almost stopping. I read the
message again and again and I can't
believe what I'm reading. This has to be
buhle... it is her. These two have been
playing me and laughing behind my back
and stressing me out.

Him:" have you seen my phone I think i...."

He says getting in the kitchen and sees me
holding his and he freaks out

Him:" what are you doing with my phone

luh? "

Me:" You fucken bastard!. how can you do

this to me? " I scream at him

Him:" what are you talking about? "

Me:" This you fucken bastard! " I throw the
phone at him and he ducks then I throw the
pan knife food at him and he runs out of the
kitchen ducking and I scream loud and cry
uncontrollable.

Why does everything have to be hard for

me. why can't I get just a moment of peace.
For once in my life I just want to be loved.
Why did they kill my mother?
Sponsored
what did they gain from killing her and
who's my father?. Could my uncle be my
father and is that why he loves me?. Oh
God I'm not related to sims and thami my
brother. It hurts everything just hurts.I feel
him pick me up and take me to our
bedroom and lay me down on the bed.

Him:" Drink this. It will calm you down and

help you sleep"

Me:" Is it harmful? "

Him:" No it's not. you'll just sleep". I take it
and drink it then close my eyes and sleep.

I feel kisses on my eyelids and cheeks and

that smell and my heart melts and I giggle. I
didn't realise how much I missed her. I open
my eyes and see my beautiful cousin laying
next to me with her beautiful smile and big
eyes.... yeah she's not my cousin and that
thought makes my heart break and I sniff.

Sims:" I'm here now sis don't cry..." I turn

and look at her and tears just cloud my
eyes and I cry. She hugs me as I cry into
her arms. I can feel her chest moving up
and down and I know she's crying with me.
I hold her tight and I know that whether
we're related or not. Simphiwe is the best
sister I've ever had.

Me:" I love you a lot you know" she laughs

Her:" Ofcause you do dummy because you
know I'm very special."

Me:" Where is thami? " he's busy with

exams but he's gonna be here as soon as
he's done".

Her:" I missed you you know " she says

sniffing

Me:" you didn't come with them? " I look at

her.

Her:" No they are visiting their fathers and I

would have left them even if they were with
me because I knew you we're going to ask
me to come".

Me:" I miss them "

Her:" they miss you too. we all did".

Me:" I know they missed me and my
cooking because I'm the only who knows
how to cook. What were you feeding my
kids Sims ? " we both laugh

Her:" oh come on they are still alive ok and

the food they ate didn't kill them plus we
would take aways and fast food"

Me:" I hope they are not skinny" I say

giggling

Her:" oh please they are fine"

Me:" where's uncle? "

Her:" I think he's coming tomorrow "

Me:" Ok. I'm glad you're here "

Her:" where you go. I go. I love you sis ".

Me:" of /cause you love me because I'm the
only yellow bone you know" we both laugh
then we get quiet.

Her:" What's wrong luh between you and

mbuso because when he called me he was
frantic and freaking out? ".

Me:" when did you get here? "

Her" two hours ago. I asked mbuso what's

wrong but he wouldn't say anything "

Me:" Everything is wrong sis. every messed

up thing."

Her:" Tell me everything sis "

Me:" Where do I even begin? "

Her:" Wherever you want to. We have

time".
I tell her everything that's been going on but
not share that I'm pregnant and what
mbuso said about my... the people that
stole me. I want to hear my uncle confess
that to me first. By the time I'm done telling
her what been going on she's quiet and
that's not like her.

Me:" you are quite and that's not like you "

Her:" I'm sad that you had to go through all

of that alone and you didn't share that with
me the whole time we would talk on the
phone"

Me:" I knew you would be hurt and upset

and I didn't want that. I thought things will
get better but they didn't ".

Her:" I'm going to kill buhle when I get my

hands on her. I can't believe she set you up
like that"
Me:" I knew she was conniving but this is
shocking"

Her:" and you lost so much weight because

of the stress. I wish things were different "

Me:" I had hope that maybe things will work

out but they didn't ".

Her:" Let's go make some waffles and ice

cream let's go drown ourselves with some
junk food and go watch movies.

Me:" Iet me show you around the house

first" I say as we get up

Her:" bitch please!. you think I would wait

for you to to take me around the house.
You know it's the first thing I did when he
told me you're sleeping. It is huge and
beautiful ".
Me:" I know and I wouldn't expect anything
less from you Sims " I shake my head

Her:" you lost the weight but you still look

good sis ".

Me:" thanks for trying to make me feel

better. let me go wash my face and then
we'll go down"

Her:" I'll go change into my pyjamas ".

Me:" ok sis " I go to the bathroom and

decide to take a quick shower. The water is
good and for a moment I feel better and I
think it has got to do with Sims being here. I
turn to wash my back and see mbuso sitting
on top of the toilet bowl watching me and
seeing him sitting there reminds me of that
time I was tending to his bleeding hand
because he punched the mirror then
something crosses my mind. When we
were at the judges office I don't remember
seeing his hand bandaged or looking
swollen. Maybe I was stressed.

I get done then open the shower door then

he takes a towel and wraps it around my
body. I look at him and smile.

Me:" does it hurt? "

Him:" a little but she punches damn hard" I

shake my head wanting to smile.

Me:" You do know my uncle is going to give

you a black eye right and maybe break your
ribs? "

Him:" don't remind me" he says it like it

scares him and he should cause that man
loves me. I wonder again if he's my dad. I
lotion my body then go to the bedroom. he's
following me around like a lost puppy
Him:" I ordered some food since you didn't
finish cooking "

Me:" was that message from buhle? "

Him:" no it wasn't her"

Me:" who is she then? "

Him:" It's not... " Sims then barges in the

bedroom and I almost want to strangle her
and mbuso gives her a death stare.

Her:" was worried about you so I came to

check if you're in one piece and no one is
putting their hands on you where they aren't
suppose to" she says annoyingly looking at
mbuso.

Him:" knock when you enter someone's

bedroom. we could have been fucking you
know " He says annoyed.
Her:"Oh please spare the details I don't
wanna know. let's go the food is getting
cold".

Me:" I'm coming mbuso was about to say

something ".

Him:" Ahem. it's not important go". Sims

drags me out of the bedroom and I look at
mbuso and he looks weird like something is
wrong. We go to the kitchen and see they
ordered from " Mr D Foods". my mouth
waters and we start plating for ourselves.

Her:" Have you noticed something different

about mbuso? ".

Me:" what? he's everyday different and I

can't keep up with him".

Her:" I mean physically and he doesn't have

that sparkle in his eyes. The one I saw
when he looked at you".
Me:" maybe it died when we got married ".

Her:" he's not as scary and intense like the

last time I saw him ".

Me:" You don't really know him sims so you

can't say that ".

Her:" hmmm ".

CHAPTER 10.
A lots of African novels available here
www.allnovelworld.com
My body feels so relaxed and warm hmm i
love it. I can't remember the last time i slept
like this because it feels so good. I sigh
then open my eyes and i see a pair of
brown eyes looking at me and then a very
hard thing poking me. That's why I feel so
good its because I slept on top of mbuso.
He kisses my nose then my lips.
Him:" good morning sweet "

Me:" morning how did i end up here "

Him:" you fell asleep after the second movie

so i took you to bed and we slept "

Me:" ok and how did I end up sleeping on

top of you? "

Him:" well you kept on touching my dick

then when I tried to touch you you slapped
my hands then when I stop and finally get
some sleep you decide to get on top of me
and sleep".

Me:" why didn't you move me to the bed?"

Him:" you looked so peaceful and relaxed

and I loved feeling you sleep on my arms. It
reminded me of that day when you were
crying as I held you and you slept in my
arms and when you started nipping on my
neck thinking you having a dream" I giggle

Me:" it was nice a dream and it felt good "

Him:" hmmm "

Me:" you're getting hard "

Him:" I've been hard the whole night sweet.

Why won't you touch me? "

Me:" I am touching you " I'm playing with his

beard

Him:" you know what I mean when we're

intimate " I try to get off him but he holds
me

Me:" my uncle is coming today and I'm

nervous " he takes a deep breath then
breathes out.
Him:" don't remind me and don't change the
subject "

Me:" you won't let me touch because you

always fuck me. you dont want to look at
me that's why you fuck me from behind " he
quickly changes positions and now i'm
beneath him

Him:" I always want to look at you while I

fuck you but I couldn't and wouldn't allow
myself because of the guilt I feel when I
always look at you".

Me:" what are you feeling guilty about ?" he

doesn't answer me but instead kisses me.

Me:" mb...."

Him:" sshhh let me touch you and make

your body sing "
Me:" lock the door " I want the damn dick
I'm so horny

Him:" I did lock the door when I took you to

bed wouldn't want to make that mistake of
your cousin seeing me giving you what you
need"

He takes off all my clothes then looks at me

like its the first time he's seeing me naked
then takes off his pyjama pants and his dick
springs free and I see his dick is leaking
with precum and i just want to run my
tongue on it. I look at him and he's looking
at me smiling and I smile back. I dont know
but something is shifting between us.

I crawl and get off the bed then stand next

to him. He opens his arms and holds me.
we stand there naked my head on his chest
listening to his heartbeat beat. His hands
touch my ass then he lifts me up like I
weigh nothing. I wrap my legs around his
waist and arms around his neck

Him:" you were a size 36 and now I think

you're 32. you lost so much weight because
of me. I'm sorry sweet i'll.... "

Me:" sshhh lets not ruin the moment and

talk about that "
I bring my face and kiss him deeply. he
moans and starts to kneed my ass grabbing
it tight and grinds his dick on my clit and i
moan he groans and I hold him tight and
kiss the living day lights out of him. My body
always melts at his touch and I can't help
myself. Feeling his dick against my wet
folds and it touching my clit makes me so
wet and I know he can feel my wetness.

Me:" mmmm... put me down "

Him:" Baby please..." he puts me down and

I look at him and smile
Me:" ssshhhh"

I get down on my knees and come face to

face with his proud protruding member
facing upwards above his belly button .
Mbuso has a type of dick that is like almost
a banana shape its thick long and oh so
very yummy. My mouth waters from just
loking at it and I lick my lips then take my
hand and wrap it around his dick but my
hand can't wrap all around it just half of it
and he stands still.

Him:" Baby you dont have to do it " he says

touching my hand that's on his dick

Me:" I want to " i pull his hand off and look

at him as I move my thumb over the head
of his dick and he swallows. I move it
around smearing the precum all over it then
move my hand all the way down to his
pubic hair then bring my face down close to
his dick and swallow his dick and it streches
my jaw making me open my mouth wide
then I move my tongue around it and tease
that opening on his dickhead and he
groans.

I pull my face up and look at him again the

go down on him again and he groans then I
feel his hand on head making me go
deeper and I moan making a mmmmm
sound and he curses.
I take my other hand and put it on his balls
and start touching them softly feeling them
in my hand and it feels so good having him
in my mouth but his pressing my head hard
making me struggle to breath a little and he
notices because he moves his hand off my
head and brings it to my face and
massages my jaw

Him:" relax your jaw your baby and breath

through your nose " i do that and he
continues to massage my jaw then he flexis
his hips and moves them a little at
controlled pace and i moan again move my
head up and down using my lips and
tongue all around it and it feels so good.

I can feel that i'm very wet my boobs feels

heavy my nipples are hard and my body is
screaming to get some release but what I'm
doing is not for me but for him. I suck that
dick like i'm eating ice-cream and my
favourite lollypop then I pull it out of my
mouth and it pops out making that pop
sound.
Me:" move your legs apart a little " he does
and i move my head again and take his
balls in my mouth sucking them softly and
he groans and i continue to suck on them
then feel him tense and so i5 stop go back
to his dick again and take him to my mouth
wrapping both my hands around it moving
them up and down and lose myself
pleasuring him. He holds my head and start
to move his hips and fucks my mouth softly
and I enjoy every thrust he makes go back
to his dick again and take him to my mouth
wrapping both my hands around it moving
them up and down and lose myself
pleasuring him. He holds my head and start
to move his hips and fucks my mouth softly
and I enjoy every thrust he makes I move
my hands off his dick and put them on his
tight ass with my nails and he groans.

His movements get hastly and I moan again

making that mmmmm sounds he groans
goes deep in me and I feel my nose
touching his pubic hair then he comes filling
me with his tasteless cum and I try to
swallow most of it but some comes out of
my mouth.
He breathes hard like he's struggling to get
air on his lungs then he picks me up and
takes me to bed kissing me his tongue
down my throat and I love it. He lays down
with me on top of him
Him:" get your butt on my face" huh?

Me:" what ?"

Him:" fuck my face baby "I've never done

this before but how hard can it be it will be
like ridind a dick right?". I get both my
thighs on either side of his head look down
and see that he is face to face with my
pussy. My hands hold on tight to the steel
bars on the bed then i bring my ass down
and then i feel his hands on my ass
bringing it to his face then feel his tongue
on my wet folds and I moan. He holds my
waist tight and eats me his soft tongue on
the entrance of my pussy my clit all over my
vagina sucking me good and I can't help
myself but scream out loud because it feels
good his beard tickling me on my ass
tongue on my clit sucking me softly and
damn i move my hips and ride that face
holding tight to those steel bars and now i
understand why they are on the
headboard.

He continues to suck ny clit and i feel

myself getting near then I feel his thumb
going to the back door and I almost freeze
but he bites my clit a little and i moan he
rubs around outside my back door presses
on it at the same time his tongue presses
on my clit then moves it side to side and it
makes me lose control and Ii come all over
his face screaming his name.

He takes me to his arms then lays me down

on my back while I'm still feeling my orgasm
then enters me and looks at me.

Him:" Youre the best thing that has ever

happend in my life" he says and thrusts
deep and i moan then i touch his back
those shoulders arms and finally his ass
and grab it tight pushing him deep in me.
Him:" you're perfect in everyway and don't
ever let anyone change you...even me " he
continues to thrust deep and i moan

Him:" I'm sorry for everything i have put you

through " he kisses me and i close my eyes

Him:" look at me baby don't shut me out

please " I look at him and see that he is sad
like he wants to cry and that makes me hurt

Him:" I wish I can turn back time fix things

say things I should have said so I can have
this moment right here and now for life.
Wake up to it everyday of my life...." his
pace changes and he starts to move. His
thrusts are deep long and hard like he is
giving me all of him and wants nothing left
behind and it makes me cry because it feels
like he is saying goodbye to me. He wraps
both his arms around me kisses me with his
eyes closed and i'm looking at him and see
tears on his eyelids.
Me:" mbuso...." he shuts me up with a kiss
and continues to make love to me and I cry
on his arms holding tight to him and he
continues to make love to me until we come
together. We stay like that holding each
other like it's the last time because it feels
like it.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 11.

Mbuso gets up and goes to the bathroom

and i turn and face the other way wiping my
tears off. He comes back picks me up and
we get into the shower and he washes my
whole body quietly and I do the same. We
finish getting dressed and everything and
still no one is talking and it makes me
wonder what is my uncle going to say that
mbuso knows and is making him nervous.

Me:" what is it that is scaring you? "

Him:" will you hold me " he looks so
vulnerable right now and I dont like it at all. I
don't like this weak man that i'm seeing in
front of me. I go to him and we we hug. He
kisses me on the forehead then looks at me
takes my hand we leave the bedroom and
go downstairs and find sims stuffing her
face with food.

Her:" good day love birds " she says smiling

Me:" hey sis "

Mbuso:" hi " he says low and we both look

at him

Sims:" you look bad mbuso did luh not give

you some cause I swear I heard her scream
your name more than once "

Me:" ew sims you were listening? "

Her:" hell no i was passing by coming to the
kitchen and you decided to scream his
name at that exact moment. Yoh luh youre
loud "

Me:" shut up" I say getting shy and mbuso

looks at me and smiles a sad smile.

Me:" you're eating yesterday's left overs? "

Her:" it's food and it still tastes good"

Me:" you want me to make you something?

" I look at mbuso

Him:" yeah but i'll be in my office. I have to

call frank and find out how far they are from

Me:" ok " he kisses my cheek then leaves

us.

Sims:" what happend he looks so sad?"

Me:" I think he wants us to break up and get
a divorce " I take things out and start to
cook

Her:" what? why "

Me:" I dont know. I think it is something to

do with uncle and I also told him that I want
a divorce "

Her:" oh luh I know he treated you like shit

but do you really want that divorce? "

Me:" we dont love each other sims and i

think he is hiding some things from me "

Her:" maybe he is stressed that he can't

Me:" maybe. I can't wait for uncle to get

here because I need answers and he's the
only one who'll give them to me "
Her:" what's going on luh? "

Me:" I don't know sims i don't know "

Me:" sims what did you mean when you

said there's something different about
mbuso "

Her:" the way he looked at you the first

timen was different to how he looked at you
now "

Me:" maybe it was lust and you did say that

he wanted to be in my pants so bad and so
when he did that spark left because he got
what he wanted "

Her:" you guys make a good looking couple

though "

Me:" that's all we're good at "

Her:" and having great sex too "

Me:" shut up sims man " I throw the lettuce

at her

Voice:" there are kids who would give

anything to have that lettuce " I turn around
and see my uncle looking good and smiling.
Mbuso is standing next to him. I stand there
and look at this man i've always adored and
loved and thought that when i get married i
would like to marry a man who is like him.

Me:" bab' umncane " I smile back

Him:" Luh kababa " I walk slowly to him

stand next to him and look at him.

Me:" How are you uncle? "

Him:" I'm good now that i"m here with you "
he opens his arms for me and I hug him.
I've always loved his hugs because they are
warm and fuzzy.

Me:" Come lets get you settled in and then

get you something to eat "

Him:" I want to talk to your husband first.

We will come eat when we're done "

Him:" I'm so happy to see you "

Me:" nami baba " ( me too dad ) he hugs
me again

Him:" and you? aren't you going to hug me?

" he says looking at sms and she comes
and hugs him too then uncle and mbuso
leave. There is tension between them and
its tense.

Me:" can you help me make them

sandwiches while i'm still cooking "
sims:" okay " sims makes coffee and I make
sandwiches because I dont want my uncle
to die of food poisoning from sims.

Me:" I wonder what are they talking about

there "

Her:" I dont wanna know. I'm going to take

a bath and maybe a nap. I feel so full "

Me:" as you should because you stuffed

yourself with that food " she leaves I take
the tray and put it on the dining table and
the coffee aswell then head to mbuso's
office. As I get closer I hear someone
groaning in pain my uncle is shouting at him
and mbuso is quiet.

I quietly open the door and see my uncle

holding mbuso by his throat and by the way
mbuso is bigger and taller than my uncle
and I realise that mbuso is letting him beat
him. I get so shocked when I see so much
blood

Me:" Uncle what are you doing? why are

you hitting him ?"
mbuso's face is bloody his clothes and my
uncle's aswell.

Him:" get out lungi and close the door " he

says angrily

Me:" why are you hitting him though?" I ask

him knowing very well why

Him:" look at you lungi just look at you! you

lost weight you go missing he has a nerve
to put his hands on you who the hell does
he think he is? "

Me:" he's my husband uncle. The one you

told me to marry! "
Mbuso:" lungi leave us I'm okay " he says
struggling to talk

Me:" no i'm not leaving. I want the truth. The

lies and secrets must stop now!. "

Mbuso:" she's right it all must stop now "

Uncle:" shut up mbuso. Lungi go to the

kitchen we are coming now "

Me:" promise me you won't hit him again "

my uncle nods

Me:" mbuso go clean yourself up then come

downstairs " he also nods.

I leave them and go to the living room and

sit down. Sims shouts from the kitchen

Her:" your food is burning luh "

Me:" switch off the stove sims " I dont have
energy to cook anymore. She comes to the
living room and sits next to me.

Her:" what's going on luh and please don't

tell me you don't know "

Me:" we'll both find out what's really going

on " mbuso comes first and has showered

and changed his face looks really bad. He
stands next to the fire place and doesn't sit
down then my uncle follows too and has
changed his clothes.

Me:" after I came back from the hospital I

went to the hotel and spent the night there
and then the following morning I came back
home and we had a fight and he hit me. I
told him I wanted out that I want a divorce
but he said I couldn't leave because there's
a price on my head by my parents. He said
that my parents are not my biological
parents but people who murdered my
mother and then stole me." sims gasps
shocked looking at my uncle

Me:" so who am I uncle who are my parents

why was my mother killed and where is my
father? " I ask him looking at his eyes.

Him: where do I even start lungi? "

Me:" at the very beggining "

Uncle:" Mbuso is the one who should start "

Me:" start talking mbuso i'm listening "

Him:" I am a hacker lungi It's what i'm good

at. I met buhle at a club and we started
having a physical relationship....." he goes
to explain how he and buhle met and how i
am involved in stealing the 2 milliom.

Mbuso:" It didnt make sense that you

would steal my money just for the fun of it
and so buhle can get married to me once I
find out because she was trying to get my
attention and then I decided to investigate
who buhle really is and I found out that she
has been asking about me where I live and
where I hang out...things like that. So I went
to see your uncle and told him what
happend and he told me that you couldn't
do something like that but buhle is very
capable of doing it and much more ".

Me:" so you knew from the beggining that i

was innocent ?"

Him:" I wasn't hundred percent sure so I

digged some more and found out that buhle
cloned your phone and laptop. She took
your original phone and gave you a fake
one looking exactly like yours and had
everything your original one had and did the
same with your laptop. That's why there we
messages from "you" but not really you.
She also made a fake I.d with your names
and date of birth but used her picture. She
made a private back account same as your
account number and that's how she got to
transfer the money from my laptop to her
account using your information. She is
working with someone who is used to
dealing with these things and we believe
that person to be the man you call dad who
raised you "
I cannot believe what i'm hearing buhle did
what with my dad?

Me:" how did she know your passwords and

everything ?"

Him:" They put a hidden camera in my

office "
Me:" why not clone your laptop like mine? "

Him:" because I'm a hacker and I would

have noticed and she knew I didnt have
cameras in my office " my head is spinning.
I've been living with murders and
thiefs...who are these people?

Me:" she did all of that and you still wanted

to marry her?....it doesn't make sense " he
looks at me then looks at my uncle and I
look at them both then my uncle looks down
and mbuso comes and sits on the other
side of me on the couch.

Him:" she also said something else when I

confronted her...." he takes my hands in his

Me:" what did she say ? "

Him:" she said that your....her dad was

planning to sell you to some man for one
million rands "
" what?! " both sims and I say at the same
time and I stand up

Me:" and you believed her?.....no they

wouldnt do that uncle? " I keep shaking my
head no

Uncle:" let him finish lungi "

Mbuso:" she swore that she's telling the

truth and she was scared for you lungi and
so she offered you to me. We made this
plan that i'll tell my family that I want to
marry her and because they had found us
having sex a couple of times so it wouldn't
be hard to convince them then my family
would go the first time for the negotiations
she will be there but the second time she
will go missing and come here to my house
but she never showed up and is still
missing. Then that will force your dad to
force you to take buhle's place but it was
never about her. It was was about saving
you and I told your uncle what buhle said "
oh my God I was going to be sold for one
million rands to God knows who? tears
cloud my eyes and fall.

Uncle:" when mbuso told me what buhle did

and what my brother is palnning to do I
offered to pay him back the 2 million and
give him the one million he will use to pay
for the lobola negotiations..."

Me:" what? did you take it mbuso?..did you

take it all and still accuse me of stealing
from you? " i ask him screaming

Mbuso:" I didn't take any of it. I refused and

used my own money to pay for the lobola
negotiations " he says with his hands on his
head

Me:" Is it true uncle he really didnt take the

money? "
Uncle:" He didn't lungi. He used his own
money "
Me:" How much did you buy me for ? "

Sims:" lungi dont say that " she says crying

Him:" I didn't buy you lungi. I was trying to

save you but i ended up hurting you in the
process "

Me:" how much did he buy me for

uncle...HOW MUCH? " i scream

Uncle:" calm down lungi "

Me" HOW MUCH? "

Uncle:" he paid 2 million rands for you ". I

look at mbuso and he's not looking at me

Me:" Why would you pay so much money

for me mbuso knowing i didn't steal any
money from you or owe you anythinhg why
did you marry me? "

Uncle:" we were worried that the person

who was promised you will come back and
want you back and so we thought that it is
better mbuso marries you " they did what

Me:" So they decided to plan my life. Why

didn't you take me somewhere to live other
than standerton and not tell anyone uncle
where I am in case that person comes
looking for me ? "

Uncle:" we were not sure who we were

dealing with and how connected they are "

Me:" This marriage that we have mbuso is it

real or I'm still here because you're
protecting me from him "

Mbuso:" he is no longer a problem. He is

dead "
Me:" how do you know that? "

Mbuso:" because i looked for him and killed

him" he says not even blinking and I feel
cold chills run all over body and the hair on
the back of my neck stand.

Me:" you killed a man for me mbuso why? "

i choke up crying

Him:" someone had to do it lungi because

you wouldn't be safe and why not me "

Me:" Do you...do you hate me for what you

did? "

Him:" I could never hate you luh never "

Me:" what happens to this marriage since

he is dead and I no longer need protection "
he looks at my uncle
Him:" There is no marriage lungi ? " I feel a
piece of my heart being crushed

Me:" so.....so you want us to divorce "

Him:" no I don't want that "

Me:" talk mbuso man how do you mean? "

Him:" we didn't get married luh everything

was a fake. ask your uncle here he's the
one who came with the idea of us getting
fake married " I look at my uncle and see
the truth written all over his face and I feel
betrayal of the worst kind.

Me:" why uncle? why would you do this to

me ? " I ask him crying

Uncle:" we thought we were protecting you.

I told mbuso and he agreed it's not like he
was innocent in all of this. The judge is a
friend and the marriage certificate you
signed was fake. that's why you never got
the real one from home affairs or change
your surname "

Me:" so the only thing real here is that a

man was killed for my protection and
everything else is a lie. My whole life is a lie
my name my marriage....I could have
walked away from all the abuse i endured
I...."

Me:" Wait....who sent you that message

mbuso ?" i ask him

Him:" your brother "

Me:" What!....thami? "

Him:" your real bother luh " what?

CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 11.
Me:" my what?....uncle what is mbuso
talking about? "

Uncle:" Lungi dear I have to tell you

something but before I do that there are
people who must be here too "

Me:" no!. Tell me what's going and i'll

decide if those people must be here or not "

Uncle:" lungi for you to understand and

have everything out in the open they must
be here please " he says pleading with me

Me:" ok fine " he takes out his cellphone

and calls whoever that is whether it's my
real brother or someone else I don't know "

Uncle:" where are you guys?...ok...uhm not

sure i'm coming " he looks at me then
hangs up.
He goes to the hallway to open the door. I
keep pacing up and down because I don't
know what to do with myself. Whether to sit
down or stand up. I feel like i'm going to
faint at any moment.

Mbuso:" sit down luh you don't look good " i

ignore him

I can't believe I have a brother and they all

decided to hide that from me and what else
do I not know. Do I know my uncle? do I
know the man i've been sleeping with do I
even know myself?. I hear footsteps of
people coming to the living room and I stop
pacing and brace myself for whatever i'm
about to face.

The first person I see is my uncle followed

by these two men I dont know have never
seen and met in my life. They stand next to
my uncle and the older man looks at me
shocked. Both of them look at me shocked i
feel something happening in my body and i
can't expalin it. One is older and he limps a
little when he walks and the other one is
either the same age as mbuso or older.
They look alike...like father and son and i
look like them. He must be my father and
that must be my brother. Wow tears cloud
my eyes then i hear sims

Sims:" oh my God you look like them...that's

so freaky "

Uncle:" shut up simphiwe. Lungi? "

Older man:" no Victor let me take it from

here ". He walks towards me and I stand
there frozen. He sands close but not too
close.

Him:" my name is Zakes Ngcobo I am your

father and this here is your older brother
Sicelo Ngcobo....."
Me:" who am I? "

Ngcobo:" You are my one......one and only

daughter Lungile Ngcobo not mazibuko.
You.....you and your brother are my only
children ". he gets teary

Me:" who was my mother? why was she

killed? and why did they steal only me. Why
did't you try to find me do you know how I
grew up? the emotinal abuse I received
everyday and constantly being hated for
reasons I did not know. Slaps I would get
from the woman I thought was my mother?
why did you let me be raised by my
mother's killers why didnt they kill me too
with her why did you let me go why?! why!
why! why! " I get loud with every question
screaming at him crying loud and
uncontrollable then I feel his arms around
me comforting me and i cry hard.
Ngcobo:" sshhh don't cry my baby....I'm
here now. All is going to be well. Lets sit
down " he leads me to the chair and we sit
down with him facing me and he wipes my
tears off

Ngcobo:" I was studying Agricultural

Sciences and on my last year at the
university when I met your mother and you
look exactly like her. It's like i'm seeing her
but seeing you".He says that looking at me
touching my face with both his hands and
kisses my forehead.

Him:" she was the most beautiful girl I have

ever seen. So I courted her she gave me a
run around for sometime and then she
finally agreed and we started dating as you
now call it then during school holidays that
same year I sent my family to send a letter
to her family in Newcastle and I payed
lobola for her. I didnt want any guy to steal
her from me and so I made my move
quickly. They accepted but said she will
finish her studies first before we conclude
the negotiations and so I waited and I was
patient well half of the time " he smiles and
you can see the love he had for her and still
has and it warms my heart.

" She was studying teaching and she was

very passionate about it. she was a very
passionate person and it's what I loved
most about her. She was had this friend
that I didn't like but your mother was a kind
person she didn't want to see the bad in
people. I was working back at our farm and
would travel to and from Durban to see her
every weekend after I graduated. She
eventually graduated and as soon as she
did we finished paying the amalobolo and
we had a traditional wedding and after that
a white traditional wedding too because she
wanted it and to me it didn't matter because
we were already married. "
Him:" We got our own place and she found
a job in Ladysmith and worked there as a
teacher and then we had Sicelo after a year
in our marriage..."

Sicelo:" wow dad you didn't waste anytime "

he says chuckling

Ngcobo:" Scelo man "

Ngcobo:" your mother was still friends with

this woman from joburg Thulisile and she
will always show up at our house
unannounced and I did mind but she was
your mothers best friend and I told her that I
didnt like this woman and she said I 'dont
like anyone so I let it go because she
believed everyone had some good in them

husband late a night and what shocked me
was she never invited your mother to her
wedding and she mad an excuse and said it
was a spare of the moment thing and your
mother was hurt but understood and i didn't
believe her. "
" they stayed for about 3 days then left and
would not visit for about 4 months and then
show up again and we never went to visit
them and i didn't want to because I didnt
trust that man around my family. After 5
years living in ladysmith the business was
growing fast on our farms and then I
decided to go to Durban and manage
everything from there since I was the older
brother and then we built our offices in
durban and I moved my family there then
when Sicelo was 12 years old we dicided to
have another baby you and then you were
born when he was 13 years old ".

Ngcobo:" thuli and her husband Sipho

showed up again at our doorstep when you
were 2 years and I was mad at your mother
that she told her where we live but she said
she didnt and I just knew something was
wrong because that day they showed up
she was jittery like something was wrong
with her. You were fussy that day from
when you woke up. I asked your mother
what was really going on with thuli and she
said they were in trouble and needed some
help with money and that's when i found out
that whenever she came to visit she would
borrow money from your mother and not
pay it back and the total amount was almost
R50000 and I was livid with her so I went
and asked then how much do they want
and they said they needed R20000 and I
gave them R50000 and told them in the
morning I want them gone and out of our
lives forever ".

" We had dinner and slept then late at night

I heard your mother and thuli shouting and
fighting in the house and when I got there
thuli had a knife and had just stabbed your
mother on her stomach and when I tried to
rush to her a gunshot were fired and hit me
on my arm and leg and i fell. I screamed
and tried to go your mother but her
husband shot me again on my other leg
and thuli continued to stab your mother
many times to death and she died
immediately. when they saw that I can't
move they asked where do I keep the
money I told them I had given them all the
money I had in the house but they didn't
belive me so they went to sicelo's room and
came back with him with a gun pointed on
his head and he cried when he saw your
mother dead and me bleeding to death and
I was so scared for both of you. I told them I
had a safe and where to find it thuli had a
gun on sicelo's head and you were in your
room crying histerically "
Ngcobo:" sipho phoned another man told
him to come to the house and when that
man showed up he was carrying two 20 litre
bottles of something and it smelled like
petrol. I have never been terrified in my like
how I was that day. I saw my wife being
stabbed to death by a woman she thought
was her best fried and now they were going
to burn us all in the house my kids we're
going to get burned and I couldn't have that.
Sipho left thuli and told that man to start
pouring the petrol all over the house and
that man did that and came back with three
other 20 bottle containers and poured the
rest of it in the house and on us too. Sipho
took thuli and they went to the safety box to
get the rest of the money and it was just me
and sicelo and so I told him to go and get
you in your room and run away with you
because the police were going to take a
long time to get here. He was so scared but
got up and left with petrol all over his body
to go and get you but then I heard a gun
shot and I knew they had shot him and was
probably dead then they came back running
and said they shot sicelo he is dead then
they lit the house on fire and had to get out
before the neighours saw the house was on
fire then he shot me again then left us like
that to die.
" The fire was approaching fast and I tried
to get up but I couldn't and so I crawled as
hard as I can but then the smoke was too
much and the fire was hot and I just asked
God to make you and your brothers death
quick because I didn't want you to feel any
pain and that was the last thing I
remembered "
Tears were flowing down his face and and
mine. my mother was murdered like an
animal she continued to stab her even
when she saw she was dead. how could
she? how could I have ever said I loved that
woman and wanted her love so bad...how
could I betray my mother like? "
Sicelo:" I woke up at a hospital and I was all
alone. I had lost my memory and I was
taken to live at an orphange and I grew up
there until I was kicked out at 18. They
used to call me Philasande Msizi I don't
know who gave me that name but I used it.
I used to have nightmares about fire a voice
of a child cying and a man's voice saying I
should take my sister and run away. I
looked for jobs and would get small one's
until I got a permanent job as a driver for
some big produce company. There was this
old man I used to drive with he would ask
me questions about where i'm from and
where I grew up and I will tell him that I
couldn't remember growing and he would
say that I look like people from a family in
Ladysmith and he would one day take me
there and he did when I was 25"
Ngcobo:" when I woke up I was at the
hospital in ladysmith and had no idea how i
got from durban to ladysmith. They told me
you had all died and i died too that day
when i heard you both didn't survive. I
couldn't even bury you because the house
was burnt beyond everything was gone.
When I lost my family I lost eveything then
your uncles decided to go collect your
spirits and cleanse the yard and then my
brother took over the business and
managed it because i was a mess. Your
mother would come to me in my dreams
always crying and when I would go and
consult they would tell me she wants her
kids and can't find them. It was hard and
everyday I thought about killing myself
because there was nothing i was living for
and I wanted to help her too by looking for
our kids ".

" Then one day I woke up and decided that

i'm going to kill myself. I had my gun loaded
and went to another room and sat there for
hours and just when i had the courage to
pull the trigger I heard voices outside and
people screaming. I left room and I saw this
young man being surrounded by my family
and as I got closer I could not believe I was
looking at Sicelo standing there looking
shocked as he saw me approaching. I
thought I had finally gone crazy but I went
to him and touched him. He was real then I
lifted his the t-shirt he was wearing and
looked for his birthmark and saw it. You
have it too just below your left breast ".

Sicelo:" I knew he was my father the

moment I saw him. I felt it and I think you
felt it too. I owe my life to that man who took
me to my family because without him I don't
know what could have happend to me. We
bought him a house 2 cars for him and his
wife then gave him 5 cows and he ritired
and I still visit him. A ceremony was done
for me and I started getting my memory
back but then I would always hear you
crying when I slept and it would haunt me. I
started investigating about mom's friend
and her husband and for years there was
nothing and it was like they never existed
but I didn't give up. Then one day I had a
lead about their daughter and I had her
followed around and then that's when I
found out about you and I knew you were
my sister because you looked like our mom
then i had you followed too but I couldn't get
you alone because there was someone
following you and only to find out it was
mbuso's man so I approached him and we
made a plan to get your D.N.A and frank
got it from some resturant you went to with
your uhm cousin I guess and I had it tested
agaisn't me and dad and it came a hundred
percent correct that you're my sister and
that's when I told dad about you and we
came and spent a week in standerton
watching you and you never noticed us but
we were also careful that you do not see
us."

Scelo:" dad wanted to take you away but

we couldn't because that would make the
mazibuko's suspicious because you would
have asked them about us and they would
figure it out that we are still alive and not
dead. As we were still in standerton my dad
saw a man he thought he will never see
again a man that brought the petrol and
poured it all over us and the whole house
and burnt our mother's body to ashes "

Me:" who is it? who was it ?"

Dad:" it was the man pretending to be your

uncle. Victor " my face goes what and and i
feel my heart stop

Me:" what? no! no! no!. uncle tell me its not

true? "

Uncle:"..............."

Me:" tell me its not true!...... say something!

why are you quiet? "

Him:" I'm so sorry...I was young and... "

Me:" Shut up. You burnt my mother's body

to ashes you lied to my face everyday
saying you love me but you were busy
nursing your gulty conscious.... how could
you?. I loved you and took you as my father
but you were also part of the plan to kill me
and my whole family.... "

Sims:" I'm so sorry luh. I never knew or I

would have told you what was going on. I'm
so sorry " she says crying

Me:" sims I need some water I.....I can't.... I

can't breath I.." lights out.

that i am in our bedroom...yeah right there's
nothing of mine here.

Voice:" Mrs gumede finally you're awake "

When did he get here

Me:" Doctor Tambo. How did you get here?

"

Doctor:" well your husband sent his men to

come and get me " I Iook around and see
that my dad brother mbuso sims and victor
are all here.

Me:" uncle what happend after you left us in

the fire? "

Mbuso:" doc can you give us a few minutes

simphiwe can you go and make him some
coffee? "

Sims:" follow me yummy doc " she takes his

hand and they leave
Victor:" my brother told me to make sure
the house is burnt down with all of you
inside and they left. I went upstairs and took
you and your brother out of the house then
your dad and your mother's body. I put you
in my car and and wrapped your mothers
body in plastic and duck tape and put her in
the boot of the car then took sicelo too
because he was still breathing and then I
called the police and ambulance for your
father and left. I dropped sicelo at a hospital
and drove off "

Me:" what did you do to my mother's body "

Victor:" I had heard thuli say she lived in

Ladysmith and her in-laws lived there so I
drove there the whole night with you crying
and when I got to ladysmith I saw there was
a livestock farm and so I stopped the car
and took out my shovel and dug a grave for
your mother and buried her there because I
had hoped someone will find her and notify
the police and then we left "

Me:" dad did you find mom's grave? "

Dad:" after i saw victor he took us there we

first got lost because he couldn't remember
then after 8 hours we finally found it and
she was buried at another farm from a
family we knew. We dug her grave and
gave her a proper goodbye she's buried at
our family plot and we'll take you there ".

Me:" how did I end up staying with them

and not you? "

Victor:" my girlfriend then helped me raise

you and you stayed with her for two years
then one day I went to visit you guys and
my brother followed me because after what
happend to your family I stayed away from
them. when I got into the house a few
minutes later he got in and when he saw
you he wanted to kill you because he
thought you were dead but I begged him
and told him you're still a child and wouldn't
remember and it was either I let you live
with them so they can watch you or kill you
and I couldn't let that happen and so he
took you "

Me:" uncle I need some time to process this

because I don't know what to feel "

Victor:" I undestand lungi. I hope that one

day you will forgive me for what I did to you
and you're family " he says

Mbuso:" please tell the doctor to come "

Uncle:" I will. Zakes we will talk " they shake

hands and he leaves.

Dad:" how are you feeling "

Me:" It's alot to take in " the doctor gets in
smiling and i bet that smile has sims all
over it

Mbuso:" Doctor for the last time what's

wrong with her? " I get up before the doctor
answers and run to the bathroom and throw
up nothing because I had not eaten
anything. I feel tired and I'm exhausted. I
feel mbuso brushing my back remaining
quiet. I'm so scared of telling him that i'm
expecting his baby because I don't know
how he's going to react.

I flush the toilet and get up and brush my

teeth and mbuso is still there not saying
anything. I leave the bathroom and I see
the doctor's disapproving look on his face
as I sit on the bed

Doctor:" Mrs Gumede I told you to rest and

no stress. when did you last did you eat? "
Me:" I woke up late and I was cooking I was
going to have something to eat but then..."

Dad:" I'll go and make you something to

eat. sicelo come "

Me:" baba i'll make it " he looks at me and

smiles

Dad:" you called me dad "

Me:" and for the first time in my life it feels

right? " i say smiling. he comes and gives
me hug then kisses both my cheeks and
sicelo kisses my forehead and they leave
me with mbuso and the doctor.

Mbuso:" I'm worried about you you keep

fainting luh I know you said it's the stress
doc but what's really going on? "
Me:" I'm pregnant mbuso. I'm having your
baby we are going to be parents " he looks
at me shocked then looks at the doctor

Mbuso:" Is the stress affecting the

baby...my baby? "

Doctor:" If she keeps getting stressed not

eat properly and doesn't rest she will lose
the baby "

Mbuso:" what can I do to make sure that

doesn't happen? " is he excited that we're
having this baby?.

Doctor:" don't stress her. She needs to gain

weight and rest. Did you get and take the
medicine I prescribed for you ? "

Me:" I forgot to get them doctor " he writes

something down
Doctor:" here is the prescription and the
gynae's number and remember you have
options mrs gumede. Goodluck and call me
if you need anything else "

Mbuso:" thank you doc " he shakes his

hand and the doctor leaves.

Me:" I'm sorry I never lied when I said i'm

on birth control. I just don't know what
happend I mean.."

Mbuso:" stop luh. I treated you like trash

and I used you for my own selfish needs
because I'm like that. I use woman and then
discared them like nothing. I knew you were
innocent from the begging yet still I accused
you because at first I enjoyed watching you
looking scared of me and it gave me a
kick....that's how twistee I am. I treated you
bad because you were slowly getting under
my skin and making me feel things I have
never felt and It scares me to death "

Me:" you're not twisted mbuso. you just

dont know how to love "
Him:" love luh my parents have been
together for 45 years and married for 20.
I've seen how my father treated my mother
and he worships the ground she walks on
he loves her and she loves him. I don't
know if I can do that and be that person
to...you"

Me:" you are your own person and not like

your dad mbuso. If you won't open your
heart how will you know that you can or
cannot be that person. What are you scared
of mbuso? "

Him:" I'm scared of you. I'm scared that i'll

give you my heart and then one day you'll
wake up and realise that you deserve
someone who's better than me. Someone
who's never lied manipulated kept secrets
and hit you. You'll realise that I'm not
worthy of you and it terrifies me. I'm scared
that you'll hurt me and so I hurt you first "

Me:" you did all those things because you

wanted to push me away and not get close
to you so when I find out the truth it will be
easier for me to walk away from you? "

Him:" I didn't want to treat you good make

you fall inlove with me while I'm keeping so
many things fom you but I couldn't stay
away from you. I tried to just fuck you and
not care but everytime I did I cared deeply
and it hurt me to know that I hurt you by just
fucking you and leaving you and not giving
you my time " am I falling for him have i
fallen for him?.

Me:" It did hurt me....alot. Sometimes I

would wish that you would just hold me all
through the the night let me sleep in your
arms and wake up next to you and kiss you
good morning but it never happend ". I sigh
sadly

Him:" I would come back after you have

slept and I would watch you sleeping
everyday. I'll take pictures of you and look
at them when I'm at work. I'm sorry I
couldn't be the man you deserve ".

Me:" and now we are going to be having a

baby "

Him:" I know and whatever you decide I'll

suport you "

Me:" what do you mean mbuso whatever

decision I take you'll support me? don't you
want this baby? "

Him:" After everything I put you through I'll

understand if you don't want to keep the
baby. You were already pregnant when I hit
you luh God what is wrong with me? "

Me:" I am keeping this baby and we're

having it. You were wrong to put your
hands on me and you better not or else my
dad is going to kill you "

Him:" but still I shouldn't have done it "

Me:" you didn't know I was pregnant and

that doesn't mean it was okay to hit me "

Him:" I promise I'll never do it again "

Me:" So you're not mad that I'm pregnant? "

Him:" not mad but scared. "

Me:" I'm scared too. So what now? what

happens between us "
Him:" I think we should stop whatever that
was happening and focus on the baby and
me paying the damages "

Me:" I think so too. How are you going to

explain everything to your family? "

Him:" I'm sick of the lies so I'm going to tell

them the truth "

Me:" yeah do that. Why did you send thami

money and get him his own apartment? "

Him:" I did that because he's a good kid

who's bright and loves you and I knew that
you would appreciate it and I did with sims
and her kids because you love them. I
would hear it everytime you spoke with
them over the phone "

Me:" thank you "

Him:" no thank you luh for making me want
to be a better person. I'm gonna be there
for you and the baby "

Me:" so this is goodbye? "

Him:" no its not. I want you to go stay and

reconnect with your family because you
never had that and now that you do you
must be around them and enjoy it. Be
happy and not cry but when you cry it
should be tears of joy "

Me:" yeah " he lays down and looks at me

Him:" I know it's not my place but please

listen to me. forgive your uncle he made
mistakes but tried the best he knew how to
fix them and it wasn't his idea in the first
place but his brother and his wife. Forgive
him..us for your peace of mind and because
you're not the type to hold grudges ".
Me:" I know and i'll try ".

Him:" don't change for anyone luh because

you are one in a million and I'm glad I got a
chance to know you even though I blew it
up but I'm happy that I have a part of me
that will aways connect me to you. Can I
feel your stomach? " I nod

Me:" thank you for saying that and I'm

happy that we are going to have a baby
together "

Him:" but I feel nothing in your stomach "

Me:" it's just a fetus and not yet a baby " I

say giggling

Him:" I love it when you laugh your whole

face transforms and your smile reaches
your eyes "

Me:" stop making me blush " I smile

Him:" so what about a quickie before you
guys leave "

Me:" oh no mister. Take me to kitchen and

feed me your baby and I are hungry " ke
kisses my stomach then kisses me and we
get up.

Him:" I'm gonna miss you and you know

you're always welcome here at any time
Mrs gumede" I laugh

Me:" I'm gonna miss you too Mr gumede "

we both laugh and hug tight and I look at
this bedroom one last time and we leave.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 13.

After we left joburg we came straight to

Ladysmith and sims came with us too. I
was scared that I wasn't going to be
accepted but the whole family was excited
because my father had told them about me
and that I was alive and not dead as they
thought. They took me to my mother's
grave and it was a better sweet moment
being there and I didn't cry as much as
thought I was going to because I was
thinking about the baby and when I was
there listening to my dad and brother tell
her about me I felt a sense of belonging
and peace. I saw her pictures and yes I
looked like her I have her eyes and smile.

I have an aunt and two uncles one of the

uncles is the one who took over the
business after dad and the other one lives
in Johanessburg handling the business
there. I have 4 male cousins and 2 female
cousins who have 2 kids each and married.
I have a good relationship with all of them
but i'm most close to my aunt another than
my dad and brother and she has no kids
and she treats me like her own daughter.
She's the last born in the family even
though she's 40 never married and dad is
very protective over her and I call her ma
not aunty.

There was a welcoming ceremony for me

and the whole Ngcobo family was there
including their business assocciates and it
was beautiful and I told mbuso about the
ceremony and he was happy but wouldn't
come because he didn't want to disrespect
my father and the whole family while he is
still have to pay the damages for me getting
pregnant. I was scared to tell dad I was
pregnant but he told me he suspected that I
was and he was happy and told the rest of
the family and I have literally been treated
like a baby of the family and I'm loving
every moment. My brother well he had
mixed feelings about it and I didn't blame
him.

I talk to mbuso everyday and he would

send me R20000 every month for my needs
and for whatever the baby would want as
I'm pregnant. I told him it wasn't necessary
because my dad and brother make sure I
have evrything I need. Sims left after the
welcoming ceremony and I miss her I told
thami a week after I have left what happend
he was shocked and broke down and I
haven't gotten hold of him since that day
and so I decided to give him some space to
process everything. My father invited uncle
victor but he didn't show up because he still
feels I hate him and won't forgive him but I
feel like I have forgiven him even though I
haven't said it to him but I know I will I just
need to have courage. Yes he did hurt me
but he made sure I was always taken care
of and honestly if my father can forgive and
make peace with him I can too.

My brother lives in Durban and works there

but he has been coming home every
weekend since I have been here and we
are bonding everytime. Today is thursday
and it's my first appointmen with the doctor
and mbuso is coming with me to see the
doctor. I'm going to be seeing my baby for
the first time and I'm excited. I'm almost four
months pregnant and starting to show and I
haven't seen mbuso since I left. I wake up
make my bed even though we have aunties
who help in the house but i like doing things
for myself. I do my morning routine and go
to the kitchen and find my handsome dad
drinking tea and reading a newspaper..."
Isolezwe ".

Me:" sawubona baba " (morning daddy ) I

hug him on his shoulders and kiss his
cheek and he smiles.

Baba:" I'm never going to get enough of

hearing those words morning baby did you
sleep well? "

Me:" I did dad. what are we having for

breakfast? "
Him:" ask your aunt? you woke up early

Me:" baba I told you on sunday that it's my

first doctors appointment today don't you

singing

Her:" Morning baby "

Dad:" I'm coming with you " I look at mah

asking for her help with dad

Mah:" Zakes you know you cant' go she's

going with her babby daddy "

Me:" baby daddy mah? " I say embarrased

and dad has stopped reading the
newspaper looking at me unimpressed
Her:" Well what do I call him because he's
not your boyfriend " she says laughing. She
knows the whole story between me and
mbuso

Dad:" what exactly is this boy's intentions

with you? "

Me:" I don't know dad. We made a decision

to break up and so we can both focus on
ourselves "

Him:" My daughter will not raise a child

Me:" I'm here now dad and we have a

second chance and I'll always be your little
girl " I take his hand

Dad:" that's why I am taking my baby girl to

her doctor's appointment and I'm going to
see my first grandbaby since your brother
won't settle down and get married " mah
laughs I give up . At that exact moment big
brother walks to the kitchen looking like he
didn't sleep.

Him:" morning family " we greet back he

kisses me and mah on our cheeks and he
reakes of alcohol and brushes our dad's
head and dad slaps his hand off and we
laugh
Dad:" don't touch me with those hands
because I don't know where they were and
inside of what yesterday " my brother
chokes on his water and I flush same
time....my dad guys.

Mah:" bhuti? we have a child here! "

Me:" ncoooh you missed me " i say

pinching his cheek

Him:" you wish. I came because I want to

see my nephew or niece " he says touching
my stomach

Mah:" Well since everyone is going I might

aswell go too " I sit there quiet because I
can't believe I'm finally receiving the love I
have always longed for and sometimes it
feels like I'll wake up and all of this would
be gone and taken away from me again.
Mah:" baby you okay ? " she asks me

Me:" I'm okay mah "

Dad:" don't you want us to come with you? "

he's hurt I stand up and go sit on his lap

Me:" I want all of you there daddy and I'm

Sicelo:" then why do you look so sad baby

word with your brother " he kisses my
cheek and i get in and open the backseat
window and hear my brother say

Sicelo:" I found buhle. She's at my house in

durban "
CHAPTER 14.
I have mixed feelings about what I'm
hearing. I'm angry I'm hurt and I feel mad at
her I know she lied and framed me and that
hurt but what if she didn't do all those things
where could I have been right now?. I could
have been living with that unknown man I
wouldn't have met mbuso I wouldn't have
known my family and I wouldn't have been
caring this precious cargo that I love so
much.

I want to see her and confront her. I want

her to look me in the eye and tell me why
she did the things she did to me. Would she
lie and blame it on her parents? will she say
they made her do it. I want her to see that I
have toughned up I'm no longer that meek
and sweet lungi she knew the one she used
to walk all over on because living with
mbuso made me have a thick skin and
taught me alot of things.
Sicelo gets in the car and we drive out and
I'm just thinking if will I give her a bitch slap
when I see her or will I just listen to her
telling me all her lies....I despise liers why
can't just people tell you the truth and hurt
you with it and not tell you lies just to make
you feel better... I hate it.

Sicelo:" you're awfully quiet what's wrong? "

Me:" Brother what do you really think of

me? "

Him:" What kind of question is that? "

Me:" just answer me "

Him:" I think you're one tough cookie smart

as hell have a kind heart and a big one you
don't like to see people feeling bad or hurt.
You are very forgiving and sees the good in
everyone and you always hope for the best
in every situation ".
Me:" thank you for saying that but do you
think I'm weak and I let people walk all over
me? "

Him:" where are all these questions coming

from luh? "

Me:" just thinking out loud "

Him:" having a big heart and being a

forgiving person doesn't make you weak
Luh. Sometimes people will use your
kindness for their own selfish reasons but
you my sister you're nothing like a weak
person. I don't know how you grew up but
from what you told us luh it was hard. Not
receiving any kind of love but emotional
abuse always is hard if you were a weak
person you would have ran away thrown
yourself to everyman and sold yourself. You
would have turned into drugs and be an
alcoholic but here you are strong and
beautiful. You have scars that still need to
be healed and we are here to help you heal
every step of the way. If there's anyone I
know who deserves all the love and
happiness in the world it's you baby sis and
I'll make sure as your big brother that you're
always loved and protected. You and my
niece " I wipe a tear off and kiss his cheek.

Me:" You're the best big brother ever. I love

you " we stop outside the doctors office and
he gets out comes and opens my backseat
door and I get out then he takes me into his
arms and he hugs me tight and I hug him
back. Mbuso has arrived and he's watching
us then mah and dad pull up too.

Him:" I know I don't tell you everyday but I

want you to know that I love you very much
and I don't ever want to lose you again "
that's so beautiful so this is why people go
crazy over their siblings because of the love
and protectiveness they have for each
other? I thought I had that with thami but
this here is the best ting ever and not even
close to what I have with thami.

Me:" just so you know I'll kick any woman's

butt if they ever hurt you in any kind of way
" I feel him smiling

Him:" you and aunty are the only women I

love and it's going to stay that way " I
giggle

Me:" for now " we laugh

Dad:" If I had to die tomorrow I'll die a very

happy man. I love you my children.....very
much " I break the hug and go hug him too.

Mah:" lets go inside I'm sure the doctor is

waiting for us " I look at mbuso and he's just
standing there looking all broody and silent
and my nipples get hard. It's like he can see
me and knows what I'm feeling because he
winks at me smirks and I smile. Mbuso has
this thing of making me feel shy like I'm still
a teenager.

We all go inside and mbuso follows behind

with my brother and I give my brother a
thank you smile and he rolls his eyes and I
laugh.

Dad:" I'm so happy to see that you're

excited "

Me:" I've got my whole family here to share

the whole experience who wouldn't be "

ReceptionLady:" Oh my....uhm sorry Good

afternoon and welcome to DR Preston's
office and my name is Candy and how may
I help you? "she says starring at the men

Me:" Hi I'm Lungi Ngcobo and we're all here

for my 13:00 pm appointment "
Her:" all of them are here for you? " she
looks at my dad and I see something in her
eyes...hell no sis my dad is not a blesser

Me:" yes all of us " she looks shocked then

her eyes move to my brother and mbuso....I
don't like that.

Her:" Please follow me " she walks infront

of us shaking her ass and I look at mah and
we both laugh. She takes us to the office
and we get in.

Her:" Please go to that room over there and

wear this pee in the cup and bring it with
you and I'll let the doctor know that you're
here. Can I get you anything else water
Sponsored
water tea and coffee ? " she patts her hair

Me:" we're fine thank you "

Her:" oh ok I'll go let the doctor know and
remember I'm just outside should you need
anything " she leaves

Mah:" who names their child Candy

because that sounds like a stripper name? "
me and mah laugh and the men are quiet
yoh. I go to the room she directed me too
change then come back and sit on that
chair like bed.

The doctor gets in with a huge smile on his

face and he looks so stylish and I smile.

Him:" Hi fam I'm Doctor Preston but you

can call me Dr Pres and you miss ngcobo
mommy to be how are you doing? " I love
him
Me:" please call me luh and I'm excited
doctor these are my parents my brother and
baby daddy " He smiles
Him:" oh my...they are so manly " my dad
looks uncomfortable and the guys just don't
care and me and mah just wants to laugh at
dad.

Him:" Baby daddy come and sit next to

mommy here and hold her hand mommy
lay down and lets see this little human "
mbuso looks at my dad first like he's asking
for permission and my dad nods then he
sits and takes my hand.

Doctor Pres checks my urine writes

something down and the start to touch my
stomach and press down on the sides not
hard just soft and asks me if I feel any pains
and I tell him no then takes a stethoscope
and moves it around my stomach and for a
moment I get scared because he is very
serious and I look at mah.

Him:" can you please lift up the top " I do as

he says
Him:" you'll feel some coldness from the gel
" he splashes it on my stomach and its cold
yoh

Me:" oh it's so cold "

Him:" sorry doll.....fam please look at the

screen " he says and takes that sonogram
machine mouse as I call it and moves it
around my stomach and I see what looks
like a baby's body and I look at mbuso and
he's looking at the screen and has a little
smile on his face then he looks at me and
mouths thank you and squeezes my hand.

Doctor:" oh there you are... why are you

hiding youself....oh fam look at that little
body..." he points to the screen with his
other hand showing us the head and body

Me:" ncoooh my baby is sucking her thumb

"
Mah:" that's so cute baby " she has tears on
her eyes and I tear up too

Doctor:" lets hear the heartbeat " he moves

the machine again searching for the
heartbeat and finds it and I feel this
overwhelming love I feel for her or him.

Dad:" that sound right there is life. A life

growing inside of you baby. Thank you for
sharing this moment with us " he pats
mbuso on his shoulder.

Doctor:" what a lovely family you guys

should adopt me " he says

Me:" thank you doc and you're part of the

family from today "

Him:" don't kick me out when I start

showing up on sunday for lunch. All seven
colours " we laugh my doctor is extra
Mah:" you can visit anytime doctor "

Him:" I'll hold you to that. Now tell me

mommy and baby daddy do you want to
know the gender so I can start to plan the
baby shower " huh?

Me:" I don't want to know. I want it to be a

surprise mbuso what do you think "

Him:" whatever you want baby....uh I mean

yeah I want what you want "

Sicelo:" What if we all want to know? dad

mah you want to know right? "

Mah:" No I dont want to know because as

soon as I do I'm going to start buying
clothes no ". she's so happy

Me:" dad ? "

Him:" I want to know too but I'm too excited
and I know i'll tell you and start thinking of
names " mbuso gives me a do you hear
that look and i giggle

Me:" are you okay with my brother knowing

Mbuso:" what if the good doctor here blurts

it out one day out of excitement ? "

Doctor:" I'm good at keeping secrets and I

swear on my grandmothers grave I won't
tell her scouts honor "

Dad:" saze sazifaka nkos' yam " ( what

have we gotten ourselves into) we laugh

Me:" ok you brother you better keep it from

me and I swear if i get even an idea from
you and the doctor what we are having I'm
going to kill you "
Sicelo:" I swear scouts honor too " we all
laugh. He moves the machine again and he
stops and smiles

Mbuso:" so there's nothing wrong with the

baby everything is fine? "

Doctor:" The baby is all fine and healthy

and growing. I read her file dr tambo sent
me and I see she's doing better now and
we have to continue to keep it that way until
the little one arrives. Eat healthy take your
medicine and no stress and you can have
sex mommy with baby daddy because
that's healthy but not anything too rough
that will....." oh my God can the ground
open up and swallow me in.
Dad:" that's my cue to go. I'll be outside "
dad leaves and mah laughs.

DrPres:" oops I forgot daddy is here sorry

guys. let me print these out and you all
want copies right? " I nod. He cleans my
stomach and I go and change to my dress
and comeback.

DrPres:" here's the prescription medicine

think something is wrong or you're not
feeling well and or you have any questions
please don't hesitate to call me. Give me
your phone " I give it to him and saves his
contacts.

Me:" Thank you doc for the wonderful

experience " He gives us the printout of the
baby's sonogram and whispers something
to my brother oh yes the baby's gender and
they both smile and look at me and I frown.

Him:" the pleasure is all mine. I'll call you so

the three of us can have a lunch sometime "
I hug him and we leave.

Mbuso:" what just happend in there? "

Sicelo:" bro I'm still confused "

Mah:" we have just gotten ourselves a new

member of the family and I love him " we
both laugh and I stay behind with mbuso

Him:" are you happy ? "

Me:" I'm so happy and I feel like I'm ontop

of the world " I say touching my stomach.

Him:" the world is yours baby " he too

touches my stomach

Me:" are you happy too ? "

Me:" I can't sneak out mbuso "

Him:" Talk to your aunt baby she'll make a
plan I miss you Luh "

Me:" okay I'll try " He kisses my cheek and I

go to my parents car and we leave.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 14.

Today is the day I'm going to get me some

loving and honestly I can't wait to share my
body again with mbuso because I can see
that he is trying to be a better person and
not the man I first met and even though
things we're not great at first I'm glad we
are at this point in our lives. I haven't talked
to mah about asking her if she could make
an excuse for me to not be in the house so
dad won't be suspicious.

I'm staring at myself in the mirror trying

different dresses to wear for tonight and I'm
just not feeling them they all just look drab
and not good at all. I need to go
shopping...Yes I'll ask mah to accompany to
shop and we'll use mbuso's money
because I haven't touched it yet.

I leave my bedroom and head to hers and I

hear her singing and God she has a
beautiful and she loves to sing and I could
listen to her everyday. I open her door and
she's sorting out her closet.

Me:" mami ? " she turns and gives me her

dashing smile and I smile back

Her:" my beautiful babies you're hungry ? "

Me:" I'm still full mami "

Her:" what's wrong then? " she patts the

bed for me to sit down

Me:" nothing I just thought that maybe you'd

like to go shopping with me. I need new
clothes and we can spend mbuso's money
"

Her:" I like the sound of that and no offence

but honestly your wadrobe depresses me " I
take the pillow and throw it at her she ducks
and laughs

Me:" Huh my clothes are fine " I laugh she's

right though

Her:" Luh you have to match your bank

account and look like it. you need a serious
make-over " this is my chance to ask her

Me:" uh mami I need can I ask you for a

favour "

Her:" well you're past the age of us having

your first sex talk you're already pregnant
so we can't talk about you missing your
periods and so out with it? "
Me:" I...well mbuso he asked me if I can
spend the night with him and I don't want
dad to know or you but I can't sneak out
because I don't want to disrespect you "

Her:" Luh you know you're old enough to do

as you want but I'm pleased to hear and
see that you respect us and you want our
approval even though we didn't raise you.
As much as I hate to say it the mazibuko's
did this one thing right with you and that is
showing respect always "

Me:" it was uncle victor mah without him

being there for me always I would have ran
away or maybe did something else worse. I
miss him "

Her:" Call him and I don't worry you'll see

baby daddy and spend the night with him
God knows one of us needs to get laid "
she sighs
Me:" mah..." we laugh

Her:" what? I'm still young luh leave me

alone "

Me:" eww I don't want to think about you

getting laid "

Her:" lets go shopping and spend mbuso's

money "

We leave the house and go to town and I

thought we'll be going to the mall but mah
takes me to some store and I realise she's
taking me to a beatique...wow I've never
been to one. We get inside and find this
lovely middle aged woman and she looks
beautiful. She introduced herself and mah
tells her I need new maternity clothes and
she takes me to the fitting room and I try
fitting different types of clothes and I must
they are beautiful you can tell they are
expensive and I feel like a million rands.
After shopping mah takes me to the spa
and I get pampered and I come out feeling
like a brand new person and I feel like it's
the new me. We have a late lunch and mah
books us into a hotel to " spend the night "
and we get a honey moon suit with a
bedroom and living room dining room in the
same room. She told dad that we are
having a girls time and wanted to spend
some time alone and dad at first didn't like
the idea and said no we can have it at
home because the house is big and we
won't even notice that he's there but mah
said no. He finally agreed after I promised
him that we'll call him if anything goes
wrong.

I have just finished bathing and I'm so

excited for what is waiting for me. My aunt
helps me get dressed and she can't stop
telling me how beautiful I am. I phoned
mbuso and told him where to fetch me and
he sounded excited.

Me:" mah stop or else my head will get big

and explode " she laughs

Her:" I feel like I'm getting you ready for

your first date and I'm a proud mami "

Me:" Technically you are. I have never gone

out on a date with mbuso this will be our
second date since we had one yesterday "

Her:" Well enjoy your date and have lots of

sex but not to much " we laugh

Me:" mah " the door bell rings I look at

myself one last time and look at mah shes
drinking a glass of red wine and I could use
one right now because I'm nervous and
excited. She goes and opens the door
making sure the first thing mbuso sees
when she opens the door is me. He is
holding to buckee of flowers lilies for and
roses for mah and a small gift bag he gets
in and stands halfway across from me looks
at me from my feet to my head and he
looks impressed he smirks then looks at my
aunt.

Him:" thank you aunty for making this night

possibe these roses are for you and this
bag just to say thank you " my aunt actualy
blushes...wow

Her:" thank you mbuso. Luh I'll take these

for you " I nod and she takes both flowers
and her gift bag and goes to the bedroom.

Him:" Wow you look absolutely beautiful

didn't know you can clean up this well " he
says coming to me and kissing both my
cheeks.

Me:" thank you and yes I clean up pretty

good. You didn't disappoint too because
you look amazing " he's wearing a navy suit
and a black shirt and he looks handsome.

Him:" I can't wait to rip that dress off your

body but first I have to feed you and my
baby lets go " I am wearing a black silk
dress that fits me perfectly not tight but
showcases my curves and baby bump

Me:" mah? we're leaving " she peeks at us

from the bedroom

Mah:" enjoy guys and don't make another

baby. I love you baby and mbuso please
bring back my child in one peace " mbuso
nods

Me:" we won't and I love you too " we leave

get in the car and it drives off.

Me:" where are we going? "

Him:" somewhere where it will be just the
two of us so no one can hear you scream
when I make love to you "

Me:" we're not alone mbuso "

Him:" don't worry about frank he's heard

you scream my name many times " he
chuckles and I flush.

Me:" Are we going to have dinner first ? "

Him:" yes baby we're already there. are you

that hungry? "

Me:" yeah I am " I'm not

Him:" I'm going to feed you the fuck you "

Me:" if you feed me first I'm going to get full

and want to sleep "
Him:" tell me what you want me to do to you
"

Me:" mbuso I'm not hungry. I'm horny " he

takes my hands in his and chuckles

Him:" well then baby I'll give you what you

want "

The gate opens and and the car stops

outside the garage. Then mbuso gets out
I'm going to get full and want to sleep "

Him:" tell me what you want me to do to you

"

Me:" mbuso I'm not hungry. I'm horny " he

takes my hands in his and chuckles

Him:" well then baby I'll give you what you

want "
The gate opens and and the car stops
outside the garage. Then mbuso gets out
comes and opens my door takes my hand
and we go in the house and if like I'm
having a deja vu moment only this time it's
different.

Me:" this feels like deja vu "

Him:" first time we met and I took you to

that house in standerton yeah I feel it too.
I'm recreating that moment for you and
want to replace it with something better and
more beautiful "

Me:" Thank you " he leads me upstairs

opens the door and we get inside the
bedroom and he closes it. There are
flowers and candles lit and it smells
amazing. The candles have an amazing
scent and they are making me feel aroused
I think.
Mbuso kneels down and takes off my
sandals then stands up and looks at me. He
touches my dress like it's a page he can't
wait to touch loosens the hooks and it drops
down flawlessly on my feet then he takes
my hand I step out of it.

Him:" I crave your touch and lips on my

skin. I hunger for your sweet melodic voice
that laughter that gets me in trance like I'm
hypnotised. I'm going to touch you with my
mind touch you and touch you until you give
me all of you. I want to do to you what
spring does with the peaches trees " he
says taking off my dress and a red flush
covers my face and shoulders.

His hand moves over my face as if he has

never felt if before hands under breasts and
over them. He takes me to bed and I lay
down facing up then he caresss my curves
kisses my thighs up and down and I arch
my back and sigh because it feels so good.
Me:" mbu......"

Him:" ssshhhhh....You feel so good I adore

your body and this amazing skin that I want
to draw maps on and then explore each
and every place " he hasn't kissed me just
touched me and I'm wet I can feel my
arousal on my thighs. He gets up takes off
his clothes then wedges his knee between
my thighs and then slips his fingers into me
and I moan then he takes them out again
lifts them to his lips and tastes me then
groans.

Him:" I never understood desire until I felt

your body beneath mine your breasts taste
and smell of honey the dance of your
nipples on my tongue is driving me insane.
You are the one I yearn and long for. The
first time i made love to you I did it
carelessly like a dog fighting for a bone and
I taught you how to fuck quick dry no eye
contact and I want to erase all of that " Oh
God!

He aligns our mouths we kiss entwined and

I shudder at the touch of my flesh and his
flesh. I rock at the shock of his cock
because it feels bigger than the last time I
felt it. I straddle my legs around his waist
and insert his proud member in me and my
breath catches . I feel transparent
lightheaded. I feel the passion that burns
within my heart and all over my body for
him. He bites my lip pulls my hair betwen
his thrusts and I acrh my back and scream
his name.

I can taste his love with his kisses his

breath like he's taking his last one and his
moans like he is firing a gun. Goosepumbs
breakout of my skin as he runs his hands all
the way down from the base of my neck to
the end of my spine and grips my waist
gently and continue to rock in me. Moans fill
the room my body is on fire hunger feels my
passion so I touch him and taste him and I
get lost in the sensation and I climb so high
I explode calling his name as I fall in his
arms and he follows me too.

Our bodies are covered with sweat our

D.N.A breathless and my body
remembering what's it like to have him in
me. My limbs feel week and so I soften
them and stretch them then his legs go over
and under mine. We lay in bed with our
arms aound each other and looking at each
other. He pulls out and his seed follows him
then lays facing up and pulls me and lays
my head on his chest and searches for my
eyes.

Him:" I knew I loved you as you cried in my

arms and I held you. I knew I loved you
when I woke up at night after you left with
your family and I found our bed empty and I
regretted the times I never layed next to
you and watch the morning sunrise hit your
face. I knew I loved you when I followed
you the next day and spent a week stalking
you. Your brother chased me away and
thretened to tell your father. What I'm
saying baby is I love you and I need you
back in my life because nothing makes
sense without you in it. I don't want to
sneak up like a thief in the night like I'm a
teenager. I want to have access to you
whenever and wherever I want " .

Me:" I love you too mbuso "

Him:" can I send my uncles to come and

talk to your family ? " I look at him shocked
tear up and look at him

Me:" are you serious boo? "

Him:" I am serious. All you have to do is say

yes "
Me:" Yes! yes! yes! " I kiss him all over his
face.
CHAPTER 15.
BUHLE.

Oh God what is happening there's someone

definetley following and I have no idea who
it is because I have crossed so many
people. I'm in the mall alone and I was here
to do some shopping when I noticed
someone was in every store I went into and
I know it can't be a coincedence. I have
been following people around and I know
what to do to not get noticed and this guy is
doing a great job.

I go to this beatique and look around for

clothes take a few and go to the changing
rooms. I take off the clothes I was wearing
and put them inside my bag and put on the
new ones from the store and open the door
but some girl blocks my way.
Her:" Oh I'm sorry I thought there was no
one " she giggles

Me:" what can I help you with? "

Her:" can you please help me and zip the

dress i'm struggling with it "

Me:" ok turn around " she does and I zip the

dress and it looks good on her.

Her:" thank you very much and I almost

forgot something "

Me:" what " she's annoying me now she

turns and looks at me serious and I frown

Her:" this you bitch! " she blows something

like a powder on my face blinding me and I
scream choking from that stuff but she
covers my mouth and nose with something
that smells sharp and realise she's drugging
me and I lose consciousness.

My body feels heavy like I was hit with a

tons of bricks and I can't move my body. I
groan and open my eyes and see that i'm
somewhere I don't know I'm sleeping on
this very uncomfortable bed. The room is
small there are no windows and it's dark
and there's also a toilet in there. I know that
one of the many people I have scammed
finally tracked me down and I'm scared.

I don't know how they found me because I

always change my look so no one can
recognise me and find me but whoever did
must have been following me for some
time. I think mbuso finally found me and I
know that he now knows the truth and he's
going to kill me.

Where are my parents when I need them?

thet disappeared on me and left me alone
to fend for myself. They are now rich from
my body benefiting from it I'm living this life
because I learned from them. At first I was
scared but then my mother would take me
with her whenever she had a job to do.

They started coaching me from when I was

16 I sold my virginity for ten thousand and
ever since then I was hooked. I didn't know
men paid that much for sex and for different
things you would let them do to you and I
have done scary and crazy stuff.

I feel cold water being thrown at me and I

scream gasping in shock

Me:" what the fuck is this? "

Voice:" this isn't a hotel wake the fuck up.

You busy day dreaming " says a voice I
don't know
Me:" who the fuck are you and what do you
want from me? "

Him:" Bitch who told you to talk? get up "

Me:" No one tells me what to do asshole "

Him:" get up and take off your damn clothes

"

Me:" make me asshole " this mother fucker

laughs and he doesn't scare me

Him:" don't make me do it "

Me:" or what you'll beat me up? give it your

best asshole "

Him:" call me asshole one more time and

you'll regret it "

Me:" I can see I'm getting under your skin

asshole " I laugh and suddenly I feel a
punch on my face and it hurts but it's not
that bad and I laugh at him. I don't know
who this mother fucker is but he doesn't
scare me not even one bit "

Me:" you punch like a bitch even I punch

harder than you "

Him:" get up and take off your clothes "

Me:" come and take them off asshole you

know you want to " I get up and sit on the
bed somehow that punch did something to
my body.

Him:" I'm giving you one last chance. get up

and take off your clothes "

Me:" read my lips asshole FUCK YOU "

He grabs my braids pulls it tight and I can

feel some coming off with my hair and I
scream. He drags me off the bed and I fall
down on the floor damn those tiles are cold.
I scratch his hand with my nails trying to
stop him but he grabs tighter and more
braids come off with my hair but I don't cry
Sponsored
I won't give him that satisfaction.

He lets go and walks to somewhere in the

room takes something then comes back
and throws the water all over my body then
whips me with a cane hard like he is using
all of his strength on me and I scream and
cry.

I try to crawl away from him but I feel his

right shoe on my back stepping hard
pushing me down on the floor comntinues
to whip my ass my thighs my legs then my
whole back and my clothes tear up. The
cane now is kissing my skin and scream
loud God I feel like I'm going to pass out.
He's not talking but continues to whip me
and finding somewhere new where the
cane hasn't touched me.

He stops then turns me around I kick him

on his face and he punches me I feel my
jaw snapping. He whips my whole front and
I try to curl up like a baby but he whips my
arms making it hard. The only sound you
can hear in the room is the cane kissing my
skin and me screaming. This mother fucker
can use a whip damn it hurts like hell.

Me:" I'm sorry for whatever I did to you

please stop "

Him:" you will be sorry by the time I'm done

with you "

Me:" I've had enough please " this mother

fucker has no mercy and because he is still
whipping me and my whole boy is feels hot
and it hurts and I'm bleeding. I lay still and
take every strike he lashes on my body and
I keep saying I'm sorry. He finally stops and
he doesn't sound like he's out of breath
from what he was doing.

He walks somewhere then the room gets

bright with light. My one eye is swollen and
my face feels numb. I move my head so I
can see the person who's doing this to me.
He turns and looks at me and I get the
shock of my life. Oh my GOD NO! This is
worse than I thought

Him:" Cat got your tongue? " He says

laughing at me and I look at him the best I
can and see that he is bloody his suit is
covered in my blood and the cane he's
holding is also dripping of my blood. He
looks mad as hell and I know I'll be lucky if I
get out of here alive. He is here for
revenge.

Me:" w....who are you? "

Him:" Who do you think I am? "

Me:" Lungi doesn't have a brother "

Him:" but she does nobuhle " he says my

name in a funny way it irritates me it's like
he's making fun of my name. My parents
named me nobuhle because I am beautiful
but this man here doesn't even get strucked
by my beauty. Mam love me and they
always tell me I am beautful so why isn't he
affected?.

Me:" My father said the whole family is

dead. You are dead! "

Him:" where are your parents? "

Me:" I don't know even if I did I wouldn't tell

you "

Him:" I can make you "

Me:" give it your best shot asshole "

Him:" you never learn do you? "

Me:" I've had worse " he smirks

Him:" Celeste? " he calls out some

women's name and a woman enters and it's
the same bitch that drugged me. she winks
at me

Her:" the bitch is awake " she laughs

Him:" cutt off all her hair then take her to

sleep in the torture room. I want her to
sleep next to the things that will be used on
her body and I want her wide awake. She's
a junkie and tomorrow she'll do anything to
get a fix "

Celeste:" yes boss " she looks at me bites

her lips fuck she's a lesbian. I can seduce
her and maybe fuck her so she can get me
out of this place...yes that's what I'll do.

This man has the same features lungi has

and there's no doubt that he's her brother
and he's alive and could that also mean that
their father is alive. Is that why mom and
dad disappeared because they know that
Ngcobo's are alive. Am I the only who going
to pay and maybe pay for their sins...no it
can't be I won't take the fall.

He leaves us then another man enters

holding scissors gives them to celeste
presses my body down then celeste cuts off
my braids with my hair. I don't care I will
grow it back and she also takes off my torn
clothes off me. Even though my body is red
with blood and has lashes all over but I
know I still look good even celeste is
lookingb at me with lust in her eyes.
Celeste:" I'm going to call a doctor
tomorrow who's going to come and take off
all that plastic you have on your
body...damn you gonna look like a mess.
Take her to the dungen " she laughs and I
hate her.

This guy grabs me then puts me over his

shoulder then leaves the room with celeste
leading the way. They walk for sometime
passing many doors then she opens some
door with a key and we get it and they guy
throws me down rough and I groan in pain.

Celeste:" I'm scared for what's goiung to

happen to you tomorrow "

Me:" what if I have something you want that

could get me out of here? "

Celeste:" something like what? "

Me:" me. Both of you can fuck me anyway
you want then when you're done you let me
go " she looks at the guy and they both
smile

Celeste:" just like that? anything we want? "

Me:" yes. You can fuck me anywhere and

do anything in and on my body "

Celeste:" I would fuck every chick I hate

than to fuck that rotten cunt of yours. I
would rather get straight than to fuck you
stupid bitch. The boss did say you were
going to offer your body because that's the
only thing you're good at. Dumb bitch " she
says that then they leave locking the door
behind them.

I look around that dungen and it's full of

different tools some I have seen and some I
have never. They scare me to death and for
the first time in my life I am scared because
I never saw this coming. That Lungi's family
woill find me because I knew mbuso will
give up on finding me once he gets his full
with lungi. I wonder where lungi is and how
far they are with mbuso because the last
time I talked to my parents they said she is
still living with mbuso.

I thought things will work out with mbuso

but I saw that he didn't love me and it made
me mad. We could have been a great
couple because I know the things he likes
in bed. He's a freak and most of the time
wouldfuck me with his friends. He used to
share me and I didn't mind because it was
my kind of thing too. He fucked me only 3
times when it was just the two of us and I
would want more of that most of the time
but he wouldn't.

I don't think Lungi can satisfy him the way

he wants and needs because she's boring.
She's the type that will want a man to take
lead in the bed and not lead. Mbuso wants
a woman like me who knows how to
pleasure a man or women.... I remember
the times he would have me and another
woman at the same time but I most loved
when he was sharing me with someone
else I miss his dick.

Tomorrow I'm going to tell lungi's brother

that it was all mbuso's idea because he
wanted to fuck the both of us and be in a
relationship with sisters. He will believe me
I know.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 15.

My body hurts like hell it hurts everywhere. I

didn't have a good night because I was
sleeping on the floor they failed to even
give me a sleeping sponge to sleep on
because they want to treat me like an
animal. They forget I'm still human like all of
them and they should treat me as such
because I did lungi a favor by lying because
she could have been sold to some monster
like my dad had planned.

I'm shaking I need a fix I'm thirsty I want

something to drink I'm hungry too and I
need to use the toilet too. I get up and go
bang on the door. I keep banging the door
until my hand hurts. I need a bath I need to
look good like how I usaully do. If only this
asshole will come and I'll offer him my
pussy because men are weak. As soon as
they see a good looking body and you open
your legs that's the only thing they'll think of
and see. Men let their dicks control them so
I'm going to do everything in my power to
get out of her. My pussy has worked and
made me so much money it hasn't failed
me and it's not going to start now.

Me:" open this damn door now! I need to

use the toilet and hungry! ". I stop and listen
if someone is there or even coming
Me:" Help!.......somebody help me! " I listen
nothing

Me:" someone wants to kill me help me

please " I bang the doot again but no
answer

Me:" where is that asshole? open this damn

door! " I bang and bang and bang but no
one answers. I scream frustrated.

Someone is unlocking the door and I know

who it is it's that lesbian bitch. I bet if that
guy was alone and I offered him my pussy
he would have taken it and I would have
been home by now and at my house and I
don't even know where I'm at. I stand up
and watch who's going to open the door
and it's that celeste bitch but he's not alone.
She's with Mbuso lungi's brother and other
3 guys that have some features lungi's
brother has....who are those guys ?.
Wow I have seen men... handsome men
good looking drop dead gorgeous men but
they all have nothing against all these men
here standing before me. There's this dark
aura thing surrounding them and it gives
me cold chills that makes my skin crawl.
Was I full of myself yesterday that I failed to
notice how this man looks and this dark
thing he has when he looks at me. I refuse
to let them intimidate me I'm the woman
here and I hold all the power...yes my
pussy...the power of pussy!. I'm naked and I
know they can still see that I'm gifted
because I paid so much money to look this
good.

Mbuso walks towards me and I can't read

his face. He has changed he looks more
rough more manly more handsome God
why did I steal from him. I could have been
waking up on his arms everyday. I thought i
was going to lie to that asshole about
mbuso and but now I see that I can't.

Mbuso:" we meet again nobuhle " his hands

are on his pockets

Me:" Thank God you're here I knew you

would come and rescue me from this man
mbuso " I rush to him so he can hug me but
he roughly pushes me and I fall down ouch.

Mbuso:" don't you dare fucken touch me! "

Me:" but mbuso...."

Mbuso:" Where are your parents? "

Me:" I don't know! just like I told that Idiot

over there! " I shout at him

Him:" you know vey well where they are so

tell me where the fuck are your parents!"
Me:" fuck you mbuso. I told you I don't
know! "

Him:" you know lungi once said fuck you

mbuso and I slapped her she fell and bled.
Now imagine what I'm going to do to you
what we're all going to do to you "

Me:' I don't have to imagine because you

have done it to me before. You fucked me
with other men so I know " I shake my ass
and they all laugh

Him:" worst mistake of my life but I got out

one of the best things to ever happen in my
life out of meeting you and that is Lungi "

Me:" she's soon going to bore you she can't

give you what you need what you crave "
His face changes

Him:" ENOUGH!. Don't you ever talk about

her like that. She's more woman than you
could ever be. She's not a prostitute and
not a junkie. Celeste take her to the chair "

Me:" no what chair? where are you taking

me? "

Celeste tries to take my hand but I slap it

away and she smiles like she was
expecting it because she throws a huge
punch on my face and I stagger back. This
bitch wants a fight and I'll give it to her
where are you taking me? "

Celeste tries to take my hand but I slap it

away and she smiles like she was
expecting it because she throws a huge
punch on my face and I stagger back. This
bitch wants a fight and I'll give it to her I
don't care how hurt my body feels. I'm not
going down without a fight.

Me:" you want to fight me bitch come on

then "
Celeste:" oooh I'mma smack that fake good
looking ass " then men laugh amused.

She laughs throws another punch on my

face and I see stars ok I wasn't ready. She
circles me like I'm her prey then kickes me
and I fall and land on my stomach then she
sits on my back and hits my ass hard with
her open palm smacking me where there
are bruises and it stings hard. I flinch and
and try to get up but someone kicks me on
my face and I blackout.

I feel cold things being placed around my

body and I open my eyes and see that guy
from yesterday who took me to this room
placing wires on my body. I'm sitting on a
chair my feet are inside a steel basin that
has water inside and my hands are over my
head cuffed on the steel chair im sitting on.
No! they are going to electricute me.
Me:" NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!... please don't "

Mbuso:" Shut up. Sicelo turn the machine

on "

Lungi's brother turns the machine on and I

feel my whole body get stiff from the electric
shock that runs all through my veins and
body. I scream because the kind of pain I'm
feeling compares to nothing I have ever felt
I scream and scream and scream and they
don't stop.

Me:" ok ok ok. stop I have had enough ".

Mbuso:" who helped you get access to

lungi's accounts and clone all her devices?
"

Me:" I don't know dad got someone to do

everything. I just agreed " i'm gasping for air
to breathe
Sicelo:" where are your parents? "

Me:" I don't know I swear I don't know "

Mbuso:" do you think this is a joke? "

Me:" I fucken told you I don't know get me

off this thing now "

Sicelo:" EY VOETSEK WENA SFEBE " (

FUCK YOU BITCH ) he turns the machine
on again and now it feels way worse than
thet first turned it on and I scream so loud
because I'm in so much and I end up
peeing on myself releasing every drop I've
been holding.

Mbuso:" I'm going to ask you one last

fucken time. Where are your parents? "

Me:" I...I don't know " mbuso takes out his

gun cocks it and then points it on my head
Him:" I'm going to count to 3 and if you
don't tell me where they are I'm going to
blow your brains off "

Sicelo:" bitch you better talk "

Me:" I don't know "

Mbuso:" KHULUMA SFEBE! " ( BITCH

TALK! )

Me:" I don't know " mbuso looks at me like

he's going to lose it then he shoots me on
my thigh and I scream

Me:" you fucken shot me ! "

Mbuso:" and I'll shoot you again if you don't

tell me where they are "

Me:" I don't know I swear "

Mbuso:" it's time you met your ancerstors
bitch " he points it again at me

Me:" nooooooooo please " he shoots me

again on my shoulder and I scream

Me:" God I'm dying I'm dying.....aaahhhh " I

cry

Mbuso:" you are going to die if you dont tell

me where are your fucken parents! " he is
mad he is livid

Sicelo:" Junior stop! you're going to kill her "

Mbuso:" and you don't want her dead?

were you not the same person who was
breathing down my neck wanting her dead?
"

Sicelo:" I want her dead too but death right

now will be too easy for her. She needs to
suffer "
Sbusiso:" we can't kill her she first needs to
tell us where that moron sipho and his wife
are at then we kill her infront of them "

Philane:" Celeste lets uncuff her and take

her off that chair "

Mbuso:" no leave her there!. Tell me first

where they are or no one in this room is
going to save you. No one! "

Me:" I don't know " he points it on my

forehead and I hear the guys scream then
he pulls the trigger and I hear a gun shot
and I pee on myself again because I think
I'm dead but then I open my eyes and see
I'm still alive.....oh God I'm not dead I swear
I saw my whole life flash before my eyes.

Mbuso:" where are they? " who the fuck is

mbuso?
Me:" the last time I talked to them they said
they are visiting thami for a few weeks
because they are on leave. I tried calling
them but their phones are on voicemail. I
swear " I'm in pain and I'm struggling to
breath....I'm dying and nobody cares

Mbuso:" I'm not going to kill you because

that's easy and you still need to work for
me. Remember the contact you
signed?....yes it's legit and binding ".

Me:" I'll do anything please don't kill me "

Mlungisi:" guys the doctor is here should I

tell him to come in? "

Sicelo:" Celeste go keep him company we

can't trust this bitch...she'll talk to someone
and maybe run away "

Mbuso:" don't worry about that I have a

plan to make sure she doesn't. Buhle do
you remember that time you were 18 and
something happend? "

What? noooooo he can't know. Nobody

knows even my parents don't know. I made
sure I kept it to myself.....how did mbuso
find out? "

Me:" please mbuso I'm sorry about

everything I have done to you and lungi. I'm
sorry lungi's family I'm sorry "

Mbuso:" I'm going to sell you bitch like how

you and your parents planned to sell lungi.
Your buyer is already here and waiting for
you "

What no! this is the last thing I want to

happen to me...Mbuso can't sell me.

Me:" mbuso please you can't traffic me

please! "
Mbuso:" I'm doing the same thing you and
your parents do to other people. I'm giving a
taste of your own medicine. Mlungisi get the
doctor here. You won't die bitch not on my
watch "

Sicelo:" I can't wait to see how you're going

to look after all those implants you have on
your body come out...." he laughs

Sbusiso:" ugly ass looking bitch "

Sicelo:" all things get trafficked even the

plastic you have inside your body is
trafficked. You're going to enjoy being used
because you like using people. You like
using your body and smart mouth to get
what you want but now is the end of the
road for you ".

Why can't I just die. Why didn't mbuso just

kill me because there is no way I'm going to
survive being sold and treated like a slave.
CHAPTER 16.
MBUSO.

I want to kill this bitch so bad but I can't

because she has to pay for everything they
have ever done to lungi. I don't believe that
her parents are with Thami after everything
I'm doing for that boy he better be not
messing with me because I won't hesitate
to kill him if he's protecting them and maybe
them being there with him might explain
why he's not picking up lungi's calls. He's
not picking up even my calls considering I'm
the one who's paying for his fees since his
parents stopped paying them without telling
him or giving him a reason why.

He called me crying telling me they are

refusing to release his results because his
parents have not paid for the whole
semester and he didn't know that they
haven't. I helped because I knew he was
one person who loved lungi and always
protected her and so I hope he has not
betrayed luh by helping his parents
because luh told him everything and he
asked for sometime to figure things out and
I hope he wasn't lying when he said that. I
hope he didn't confront them because I
think they will get anyone out of their way
who tried to cross them or even confront
them.

I take my phone and call him again but this

time it says the number doesn't exist. Thami
I hope you're not in trouble or you have
joined your parents in scamming people
because that will kill lungi and she will
blame herself for not trying to protect him
and then get stressed and put her life and
the baby'd life in danger and I can't have
that. I can't have her knowing that we have
found buhle because she will want to come
to get answers and whether she gets them
or not they are still going to upset her and I
don't want that for her. I'll protect her from
everyone and everything if I must.

I watch luh's cousins take buhle to the other

room to get the bullets taken out and those
silicones she has on her body. I wonder
how is she going to use her body since the
doctor is going to take out all that plastic
and he's also going to insert a chip in her so
we can always keep an eye on her and
know where she'll always be. for someone
whon used her looks to get what she wants
this is going to be a huge blow to her
beauty and that damn ego.

Me:" God I hate that bitch I wish I can just

kill her and get this over and done with "

Sicelo:" I want to kill all of them "

Me:" I need a drink "

Sicelo:" me too we all do "

Me:" but I need to wash off this blood first
can I use your bathroom "

Sicelo:" yeah let me show you to the guest

bedroom " he shows me where the
bedroom is then leaves. I take my phone
and call frank to bring me my extra clothes
that are in the car. I go to the shower and
shower quickly and change to my clothes
that frank left in the bed. I go to the living
room and find the brothers drinking. I make
myself a glass too.

Me:" where's celeste ? "

Sicelo:" she's with the doctor "

Me:" found thami yet? "

Sicelo:" mluh where is thami ? "

Mlungisi:" He seems to have just
disappeard too. His phone is not working
and he hasn't been attending classes for 2
months now "

Me:" I think they took thami by force he

can't just disappear "

Sicelo:" I think so too "

Sbusiso:" but why would they do that

because he's their child ? "

Me:" they might use him for something "

Philane:" like what? "

Me:" to hurt lungi because they know she

loves him "

Sicelo:" I just want the woman who stabbed

my mother repeatedly I want her husband
to watch me while I peel her skin while
she's alive and hear her scream like how
my dad watched his wife being killed infront
of him "

Sbusiso:" they can't die I think we should

make his wife our worker. She sells her
body and make us money we feed her with
drugs and make her a junkie".

Me:" we'll do that " my phone rings and I

look at it and smile because it's my beautiful
pregnant fiancee.

Me:" baby " she giggles I love the sound of

her laughter

Her:" Phakathwayo " I grin

Me:" My love " she laughs

Her:" boo how are you ? " yep I'm her boo

Me:" I miss you baby what are you doing? "

Her:" I'm in bed still sleepy " I look at the
time and I'ts 11:30 am

Me:" are you feeling okay ? " the guys look

at me

Her:" No I'm not feeling good "

Me:" what's wrong? is the baby okay? " I

stand up and scelo stands next me puts his
big head next to he phone and listens and I
givce him what the fuck look

Her:" the baby is okay mbuso okay I'm the

one who's not feeling good! " huh...I'm
confused and why is she yelling ?

Me:" ok baby then tell me what's wrong "

Her:" I'M HORNY OK! "

Sicelo:" oh fuck no I did not want to hear
this "

Me:" serves you right for listening to my

conversation " I laugh at him

Luh:" oh my God mbuso you have me on

loud speaker and my brother heard! " she
screams

Me:" baby I didn't put you on loud

speaker..... "

Her:" That's my brother's voice I know it

wait you're in Durban with my brother ? " I
mouth fuck you to her brother then leave
and go to the guest bedroom

Me:" uh yes but baby.... " she won't let me

finish

Her:" you're there to see her aren't you? "

Me:" see who? " how did she know

Her:" you know very well who Buhle!. My

brother told you she's at his house and you
both kept it from me "

Me:" baby don't say it like that yes I'm here

and we kept it from you because we didn't
want you to stress thinking about her "

Her:" when were you going to tell me then

after she's dead?. Are you going to kill her
too " Fuck! I knew I shouldn't have told her
that I killed someone for her.

Me:" I don't like what you're trying to imply

and I'm not going to have this conversation
with you over the phone "

Her:" but...."

Me:" are you still horny or not? "

Her:" don't change the conversation "

Me:" the reason you called me was to tell

me that you're horny right? "

Her:" yes I was "

Me:" and now you're not "

Her:" well...I still am "

Me:" I could be fucking that accusation right

out of you on your hands and knees. Go
lock your door and turn the t.v volume on " I
lock mine too

Her:" I've done it " she sighs

Me:" what are you wearing? "

Her:" I'm wearing nothing " I can hear her

smiling
Me:" Lay on your back bring your knees up
and open your legs " her breathing is
changing

Her:" ok "

Me:" put the phone on loud speaker and put

it next to your head so I can hear you
breathe " she shuffles around

Her:" you're on loud speaker "

Me:" ok baby I want you to listen to me and

do as I say ok "

Her:" ok....ok " she takes a deep breath in

and out

Me:" Close your eyes I want you to listen to

me and do as I say ok "

Her:" ok....ok " she takes a deep breath in

and out
Me:" Close your eyes imagine I'm next to
you and looking at your beautiful body.
Take your hands and put them on those
lovely soft boobs and play with them pinch

Her:" OOOHHHH yes! ooohhh God! " I

a handjob.

Me:" Yes baby just like that.....fuck! take

She comes screaming my name and

hand... Fuck!.
Me:" baby? "

Her:"................"

Me:" baby are you okay?.........."

Her:".........." I hear her snoring soflty and I

laugh soflty not waking her up. I can't
believe she fell asleep. I take a quick
shower then go join the guys. I find them
eating and a young lady comes and serves
us.

Me:" that's your housekeeper? "

Sicelo:" shut up fool were you jacking off? "

they laugh and I laugh too

Me:" nah I was your sister scream my name

" they stop laughing then throw knifes at me
Me:" Ya'll started it and if those knifes stab
me and kill me your sister will hate you "

Sicelo:" What happend to buhle when she

was 18 ? "

Me:" She ran away then came back a year

later "

Sicelo:" why did she run and where was

she ? "

Me:" she fell pregnant and went to live with

her friend. Her parents don't know because
they thought she was working because she
used to send money every month. I guess
it's the money she used to save since she
started 'working' "

Sicelo:" why didnt she tell them she was

pregnant ? "
Me:" I don't know but my guess is that
maybe she was scared that they'll make her
go and have anabortion. So maybe she
thinks it's better to run away have the baby
and ask her friend to raise it as hers ".

Sicelo:" who is the baby's father? "

Me:" I don't know who the father of the child

is but I bet it's daddy dearest "

Philane:" what? you think he touched her?

his own daughter ? "

Me:" he's not her father and I think he found

out then started touching her she gets
scared and doesn't tell mommy and decides
to run away "

Mlungisi:" no wonder she's messed up "

Me:" her secret was safe until her friend

started blackmailing her then she goes to
her and finds out that her friend has hidden
her child because she refused to pay the
money "

Sbusiso:" so her friend took her kid

somewhere where buhle didn't know ? "

Me:" yes. she confronts her they fight and

she kills her and pays someone to get rid of
the body "

Sicelo:" how did you find out ? "

Me:" well I asked someone and they shared

the information of when buhle disappeare
for a year. The rest I had to pay to get
people to talk "

Sicelo:" that family is messed up. I'm glad

my sister didn't get twisted like them "

Me:" they shielded her in someways and It's

Victor's doing "
Sicelo:" he did the best he could trying to
make up and I'll always be grateful for that "

Me:" me and you brother "

Sicelo:" where's the child? "

Me:" still looking " I know where the child is

for now I'm keeping it to myself.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 16.
LUNGI.

I blink then close my eyes because the sun

is shinning bright on my face I smile then
roll over and look at the love of my life and
think of all the wicked things he did to my
body last night. I thought I'll be tired but I'm
not I'm just hungry. I kiss him then look at
him and he doesn't stir. I get out of bed go
the bathroom and when I'm done I wear a
robe and go downstairs and find fresh
breakfast. I look around the house and
there's no one maybe frank brought it.

I take the eggs and cover them with a plate

because I can't stand that smell then sit
down start to eat. I was scared when I first
found out that I was expecting because I
thought I was going to get sick with morning
sickness like sims but I haven't and I guess
I'm one of the lucky one's who don't get
morning sickeness. I thought I'll hate mbuso
cry all the time but I'm still me. I guess my
baby is going to be sweet like me. I have to
ask dad kind of baby was I.

I smile and get sad at the same time. I have

no baby pictures of me and my mom
together. I know she was going to be the
best grandmother ever but I have my aunt
and I'm blessed to have her in my life.
When I was growing I always thought that
me and buhle we were going to experience
preganancy together and she'll tell me that
she's going to be the best aunt....but then
life happend. I feel a kiss on my hair and I
smile

Me:" morning handsome "

Him:" morning baby and my other baby "

Me:" how did you sleep "

Him:" great baby but I was hoping to get a

morning glory "

Me:" I was hungry "

Him:" I can see how do you feel this

morning "

Me:" I'm great "

Him:" You like the house? "

Me:" It looks beautiful and I like that It's
surrounded by trees "

Him:" I brought it for you " he says biting an

apple I almost choke.

Me:" say what now? "

Him:" The house is yours baby? "

Me:" why did buy me a house? "

Him:" because I want to and I can "

Me:" but I like being at my parents house "

Him:" I know. look I brought this house

because I want you to have your own space
when you need sometime alone and when
we come to visit your family here. I don't
want to sleep in the same house your father
is sleeping in " I giggle
Me:" hey now he's my dad and what's
wrong with sleeping in his house? "

Him:" baby I wont be comfortable I'll be

sleeping with one eye open and I won't be
able to make you scream my name and you
know yourself baby you're a screamer and
now imagine I fuck you at night then in the
morning I'll have to look your dad in the eye
knowing I fucked his daughter under his
roof while he was there....no baby I don't
want to die " I laugh

Me:" ok fine I hear you "

Him:" so you're not mad ? "

Me:" no boo you have a valid reasons but

he's not gonna like it "

Him:" you don't have to tell him now...just

after my family has came and spoke with
your family "
Me:" But you didn't propose "

Him:" baby I have to go and ask your dad

for your hand in marriage and I'm terrified "

Me:" don't worry he won't kill you "

Hi:" are you done eating? "

Me:" yes I have to go before dad show's up

at the hotel "

Him:" frank brought you changing clothes

he got from your aunt "

Me:" thank you boo " I kiss him and go the

bedroom and he follows me and I take off
the robe

Him:" baby? "

Me:" no mbuso I have to go " he comes and
start kissing my neck touching my boobs

Him:" I'll be quick baby I promise "

Me:" you be quick? please "

well...........Three rounds later I'm tired.
Mbuso drops me off at the hotel and my
aunt is already waiting for me and she looks
like she had a good time alone with that
wine.

Me:" good day mami "

Her:" hey baby lets go home I have a

serious hangover and I need some meat "

Me:" why don't we have brunch here then

we'll go home later "

Her:" You want your dad to come and pick

us up like we're kids? no thank you " We
drive back home and I tell her all about
what happend and she's very excicted for
me and I'm so happy.

FEW WEEKS LATER.

Mah:" Luh... baby wake up we're here "

Me:" already ? "

Mah:" yes we're here "

Me:" do they know we're coming? "

Her:" no baby they don't know "

Me:" what if mbuso is not here mah? "

Her:" did you tell him we we're coming ? "

Me:" I didn't "

Her:" then they will call him and we'll wait

because he has to be here "
We are outside mbuso's home in
Pietermaritzburg. I don't see the reason
why we had to come here but they said it's
tradition and a must so I'm here with mah
and my other two aunts who are my uncles
wives. Our driver opens the doors we get
out and I follow my aunts who are leading
the way. They covered me with this huge
blanket that is covering my body and face
and i'm sweating like crazy. My other aunt
is holding my hand leading me.

We stop and they press the gate buzzer I

think then I hear someone talking on the
other side of the buzzer

Person:" Yes? "

Mah:" can you please let us in?

Sponsored
we are here about one of your sons "
Person:" come in "

Mah:" who is that rude person luh? " she's

annoyed

Me:" I don't know mah "

They let us in and we walk for a few

minutes then I hear mbuso's aunt's voice.

AuntLwethu:" follow me " she says rudely

yoh!. We follow her and we get inside the
house and continue to follow her.

Auntlwethu:" you can sit down " they do and

I look around inside my blanket to see
where my chair is but there's none.

Mah:" my daughter needs to sit down too

where's her chair? "

Auntlwethu:" she'll sit down there on the

floor? " huh?
Mah:" what? "

Auntlwethu:" sit down on the floor girlie " my

God I struggle to sit my heavy ass on floor
then my aunt helps me sit down and it's
very uncomfortable.

Mah:" Are you crazy? you can't sit her down

on that cold tile floor!" mah can't be fighting
with mbuso's aunt because she's soon
going to be my in-law and I don't want her
to treat me bad.

Auntlwethu:" this is not her mother's house

it's my brothers house "

Mah:" where are the other members of this

family ? "

Auntlwethu:" they'll be here at any moment

"
Mah:" please tell them to hurry we don't
have all day "

Auntlwethu:" You're welcome to leave right

now and go back to whatever whole you
crawled out of "

I wish mah would just keep quiet and not

entertain mbuso's aunt because she seems
to be in a bad mood today. she's nothing
like how I first met her. I hear footsteps of
people coming and I get nervous.

Voice:" Oh we have guests how wonderful

good afternoon " It's mbuso's dad and they
sit down. I wonder where is mbuso "

Mah:" good afternoon Gumede family "

MaGumede:" this is a beautiful surprise.

Aunty you didn't offer them something to
drink? " mbuso's mom ask her
Auntlwethu:" they said they are fine " wow

Mah:" She threatened to poison us so no

thank you. We don't want anything offered
by her and we're are not here for that " I
almost giggle

MaGumede:" How can we help you then? "

Mah:" We are the Ngcobo's and we come

from Ladysmith. These are my brothers
wives and this is my brothers daughter that
we have brought here. Inja yenu seyidle
amaqanda wethu " ( your dog has eaten our
eggs ) wow mah

Auntlwethu:" don't call my brother's kids

dogs!. Lonondindwa ingabe uyazi
ngempela ukuthi lengane ayithwele eyalana
ekhaya? " ( is this bitch sure that the baby
she's carrying belongs to this family? ). I'm
speechless
Gumede:" Lwethu! "

Mah:" Don't you dare call my daughter a

bitch. You will pay dearly for calling her
such names "

MaGumede:" please forgive my sister inlaw.

She has no filter " the tiles are cold I'm very
uncomfortable and my back is starting to
have cramps and this blanket God I just
want to get it off me and throw it away

Gumede:" we have three boys in this family.

Did she say who is it that has gotten her
pregnant? "

Mah:" Mbuso Gumede your first born son is

the one that has forced his way in my
brothers kraal "

MaGumede:" how far is she? "

Mah:" She's five months pregant "

Auntlwethu:" YOOOOH! and she waited all
this time why? did she take this pregnancy
and point it to another family because she
wasn't sure right? " she claps her hands
yoh this woman.

Mah:" you should ask your son those

questions if you don't know " my cramps are
starting to get a little intese but nothing I
can't handle. I take a deep breath out

Gumede:" where is mbuso mamakhe? "

MaGumede:" let me call him babakhe

"mbuso's mom stands up and leaves.

Auntlwethu:" uncover yourself girlie. I want

to see the girl who claims mbuso has gotten
her pregnant " my aunt takes the blanket off
and I'm so bloody sweaty

Mah:" baby are you okay? "

Auntlwethu:" Lungi? aren't you and mbuso
married and since when are you a Ngcobo?
" she asks shocked then nervously giggles

Me:" I'm okay mah " I wipe my forehead.

Mbuso's mom comes back with mbuso's
brothers and I don't see mbuso

Mah:" where is mbuso? "

MaGumede:" he's coming....oh there he is "

Auntlwethu:" mbuso....."

Mbuso:" baby?......Mama how can you sit

her down on the floor like this? " he asks
then gets me up and sits me on the couch
damn my back I breathe out again

MaGumede:" I thought she was sitting on a

mat mbuso "
Me:" I'm fine mbuso "

Mah:" you're not fine baby you're sweating

and your face is getting red "

Me:" I'm just feeling hot mah that's all. Can

we finish then go? "

MaGumede:" bonga go get lungi a glass of

cold water "

Mbuso:" dad we all know I'm there one who

got lungi here pregnant and I told you guys.
Lungi why didn't you tell me you were
coming "

Gumede:" they had to follow tradition

mbuso so our ancestors will recognise the
baby accept it and protect it because it is
one of our own " the cramps are strong now
and I'm struggling to hide the pain.
MaGumede:" Lungi? is mbuso the father of
that child your carrying? "

Me:" He is ma " I look at mbuso and he

smiles. Siyabonga gives me bottled water
and I drink it.

MaGumede:" mbuso do you accept that

you're the one responsible for this
pregnancy that the baby she's carrying is
ours? "

Mbuso:" she's carrying the next generation

of the gumede's. My baby " he kisses my
forehead then looks at me worringly

Gumede:" we accept that we are

responsible and have to pay for the
damage our son has done. Our family will
be in contact with your family ".

Mah:" thank you mr gumede but we have to

leave now my daughter is not feeling well "
Me:" take me to the hospital.....I feel cramps
on my back and around my stomach " I hold
my stomach and groan in pain.
CHAPTER 17.
A lots of African novels available here
www.allnovelworld.com
Mah mbuso's mom my aunts and mbuso's
aunt ask me a bunch of questions at the
same time and I don't know which one to
answer first. Mbuso can see that I'm getting
frustrated because he picks me up quickly
carries me out the living and walks
somewhere then I hear the car engine
running.

Mbuso:" watch your head baby " he says

then put me down on the backseat and I
groan. Mbuso's mom and mah get in the
backseat with me and mah holds my hand.
The car reverses and off it goes.
Mah:" Can you feel the baby moving? "

Me:" I've never felt the baby moving is that

why I'm having cramps? "

MaGumede:" no lungi some babies start to

play around their mom's stomach when
they are six months and some from four
months so please don't stress " mah wipes
my forehead and I can feel she's tense. The
pain keeps getting worse and I groan

Me:" please God I can't lose my baby....I

can't lose my baby " tears fall and mbuso's
mother starts praying and we keep quiet
and say Amen when she's done.

Mah:" you won't lose your baby luh " she

wipes my tears

Me:" where is mbuso mah? "

Mah:" he's driving luh "

Mbuso:" I'm here baby "

Me" I'm sorry.....I'm so sorry I tried not to

stress and worry and now I'm having
cramps and I don't know why.....I didn't do
anything wrong I swear " my body is so hot
and feels like it's on fire

Mbuso:" Luh listen to me. None of this is

your fault baby you are a strong woman
and you have been doing absolutely great. I
want you to be the strong woman I know
you are because our baby needs us right
now. Think of all the positive memories you
have and just focus on that. Your mom is
right here next to you baby all the people
who love you. Nothing is going to happen to
our baby she's probably just playing and
wants us to notice her. Everything is going
to be fine you hear me baby? "

Me:" I hear you boo " I sniff

MaGumede:" are we there yet? " the car
stops then mbuso shouts there's
commotion outside mah and his mom get
out of the car then I shift and move close to
the door then mbuso lifts me and puts me
on the wheelchair and the nurses wheel me
in me and take me to the room undress me
then I wear the hospital gown I lye down
then they put a drip in me then takes my
blood pressure. The other nurse asks them
a bunch of questions and writes down.

Doctor:" Miss Ngcobo I'm Doctor Tim. I see

that your five months pregnant and you're in
pain tell me where it hurts " The doctor
checks my pulse my eyes asks me to open
my mouth and say 'a' and I do then he
injects something on my arm.

Doctor:" The injection I have just given you

is to help your body temperature to be at it's
normal and you'll start to cool down and feel
better ".

Me:" I'm feeling pain on my back my waist

and under my ribs and my stomach hurts "
he takes his stethoscope and moves it on
my stomach then splashes a gel on my
stomach takes the ultra sound machine and
moves it around

Doctor:" Lets see what we have right here

here's the heartbeat wow very strong oh
there you are little one sucking your thumb
and hmmmm..." I hear my baby's heartbeat
and I feel a huge weight being lifted off my
shoulders

Gumede:" what was wrong doctor? why

was she in pain ? "

Doctor:" this litlle......"

Mbuso:" doc don't tell us the baby's gender

Sponsored
we want to be surprised "

Doctor:" and I almost ruined the surprise.

The reason you were in pain is because
your baby is growing and as the baby
grows your uretas is pushing under your
ribs making space for the baby to grow well
so that's why you were in pain and your
temperature was going to rise because of
the pain you were feeling ".

Mbuso:" and her back pain? "

Doctor:" Your high blood pressure is high

and it is making your baby to be in distress.
You are going to have an early labour and
have a premature baby if you continue to
have stress. Avoid stressful situations and
people who stress you. I'm going to have to
put you on bed rest at home and your
doctor will monitor you and see how you're
doing. If your high blood pressure doesn't
come down then he'll have no choice but to
hospitalize you and monitor you there "

Me:" I hear you doctor " I don't want to be

bedridden in the hospital

Doctor:" a word of advise miss ngcobo. You

seem to be holding on to something and it
is stressing you you need to forgive where
you must and let things go and focus only
on your pregnancy and enjoy it and not let
anyone ruin this moment for you because
you are going to be bringing in life. Eat
healthy and do small execrises nothing
heavy and strainious and please family
don't stress these people"

Mbuso:" thank you doctor "

Doctor:" I'm keeping her for the night. You'll

take her home tomorrow "
" thank you doctor " mah and magumede
say

Doctor:" I'm going to let doctor preston

know that his patient is here. Please excuse
me and I'm giving you just ten minutes then
you need to leave "

The doctor leaves us and I look at mbuso

and he looks so down and stressed. He's
probably blaming himself and thinks maybe
I haven't really forgave him and I did.

Me:" mbuso I'm worried about thami

because it's not like him to just disappear
and you wont tell me what have you done
with buhle because I know that time you
were at my brother's house she was there
too. Both of you are keeping secrets and I
thought I want to see her but I know now
seeing her is going to upset me and I don't
want to have this baby before time so I've
decided that I'll see her after I have
delivered our baby "

MaGumede:" You're doing the right thing

lungi "

Mbuso:" We're still looking for thami and I

promise you I'm going to find him and bring
him to you. Are you hungry? "

Me:" yes I am Can I please have hot

chocolate with marshmallows and lots of
chocolate cream cookies and well cooked
big juicy steak potatoes with lots of butter
they way mah cooks them and red grape
juice ice cold "

Mah:" ok but where am I going to make you

potaoes luh? "

MaGumede:" don't be silly we're family and

your welcome in my house and you can
cook your famous potatoes. Babakhe here
will make your steak while mbuso stays
here with you. We will go home and cook
for you then zipho and siyabonga will bring
you hot chocolate and cookies "

Mbuso:" but baby the doctor said eat

healthy...all of that food you want is not
healthy "

Me:' are you trying to get me upset mbuso?.

Your baby wants all of that okay? now
leave me alone "

Mah:" mbuso shut up "

Me:" Mah did you call dad? "

Mah:" one of your aunts did and I called him

back "

Me:" what did you say and is he upset ? "

Mah:" I told him that you were'nt feeling well
so we decided to take you to the hospital
just to be sure that nothing is wrong. He
wanted to come but I told him that the
doctor wants to monitor you for the night
and if anything changes I'll let him know
and he's worried about you but understood
that we'll see him tomorrow ".

Me:" ok ".

Mah:" we are going now get some rest " I

nod and they leave.

Mbuso sits on the edge of the bed then we

look at each other. He takes my hand in his
then kisses it then sighs.

Mbuso:" I worry about you baby "

Me:" I'm fine don't worry "

Mbuso:" I'm thinking of kidnapping you and
take you away from here then we'll come
come back when the baby is born "

Me:" dad won't like that and I want to be

around everyone "

Mbuso:" I know. I want to take away

everything that is stressing you and fix what
I can "

Me:" find thami and bring him home to me

then "

Mbuso:" I'll find him I promise "

Me:" I hope they didn't do anything to hurt

him. baby? "

Him:"We're not going to talk about people

who are going upset you. Whatever
questions you have I'll glady answer them
after the baby is born baby I promise "
Me:" that's four months from now "

Him:" I was thinking " really? he changes

the subject

Me:" about? "

Him:" where are we going to live once we

get married "

Me:" I don't have a ring on my finger " I

smile

Him:" I know...after we get married where

are we going to live "

Me:" I don't want to go back to that house "

Him:"ok we'll buy another one. You really

hate that house "
Me:" I do because it reminds me of bad
things that happend between us and I don't
want to live in Joburg "

Him:" what? why? "

Me:" I don't like it and I want to be closer to

my family "

Him:" hmmm.....where would you like to live

then ? "

Me:" Durban. I want to live there "

Him:" then start looking for your house then

"

Me:" really? just like that....you'll move to

durban ? "

Him:" I'll move anywhere for you and we

have offices in Durban. I'll move the
headquarters this side and ask themba to
relocate to joburg and manage the business
there. "

Me:" I can't believe it...what about

madlamini ? "

Him:" themba will move to the house if he

wants and madlamini will work for him. I
won't leave her without a job "

Me:" thank you boo for doing that "

Him:" she misses you you know ?"

Me:" I must call her and invite her over with

her grandkids. We'll spend sometime on the
farm I'm sure she will love it "

Him:" She's gonna be happy to hear from

you "
Me:" yeah I just left without telling
her.....she's gonna be surprised to see that
I'm pregnant " I smile

Him:" call her tomorrow when you're home

and I will also call thomas and percy to go
pick her up with the kids "

Me:" thank you boo " I give him a kiss and

we kiss deeply then someone clears their
throat and we look up it's the doctor

Doctor:" No sex on the hospital bed I'm

kidding but please we don't want her to get
too excited. I wanted to ask how you're
feeling miss ngcobo? " he checks my pulse
again and puts a thermometer under my
arm to check my temperature.

Me:" I'm good doctor I feel so much better "

Him:" your temperature is down and your
heart beat is steady. So everything looks
good for now "

Me:" doctor when am I going to start feeling

my baby playing? "

Him:" for every woman experiencing the

pregnancy is different but I'm sure you are
going to feel them playing anytime soon...."

" what ? " mbuso and I say at the same

time

Doctor:" ooops...slip of a tongue "

Me:" doctor I'm having one baby we even

saw him or her on the sonogram screen "
I'm shocked and happy at the same time

Doctor:" him or her is hiding themselves. I

felt two hearbeats on the sonogram. It was
too strong to be just that of one baby so
when I listened carefully I noticed both of
them were beating at the exact same time
and at the exact pace. I've never seen
someting like that It's like the one sucking
the thumb is protecting their sibling" that's
so beautiful my babies

Mbuso:" wow doctor thank you "

Doctor:" my pleasure. Have a good evening

" he leaves us and we look at each other
shocked and we laugh

Me:" wow I'm carrying two big heads "

Mbuso:" you love this big head and those

big heads " we laugh

Me:" are we going to tell them ? "

Mbuso:" lets keep it between us and we'll

ask preston to keep it to himself too and not
tell anyone "
Me:" great idea I'm so excited "

He feels my stomach with his hands then

lays his head on it and start to recite his
clan names and as he continues I feel
movement around my stomach and mbuso
stops and the babies stop moving too then
he continues and they play around and
continue to do even after he stops.

Me:" I love you " I kis him

Him:" I love you and I love you more baby "

he hugs me tight.

His phone vibrates and he takes it out

opens the text message and I try not to look
but I see the message and it's from my
brother and it says

" We have a problem call me " He sighs and

looks at me
Mbuso:" I have to call your brother he says
something is wrong " I didn't think he was
going to tell me.

Me:" Ok call him" He leaves the room and

I'm left wondering what is that huge
problem they have.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 17.
SICELO.

There's is nothing I wouldn't for the people I

love especially my sister I will make sure
that nothing hurts her ever again including
her mbuso. It is the only reason why buhle
is still alive because if we kill her luh will
never forgive us and I don't want her to to
hate mbuso because she loves him and the
two of them deserve their happily ever after.
We moved buhle to somewhere safe where
she won't escape and where her parents
won't find her.
I can't believe buhle is not sipho's daughter
and him raping her might be the reason
why she's so messed up. Her mother was
suppose to protect her but she didn't and
made it possible for that pervert to touch
her. I hope he never touched luh because
death is the last thing he will wish comes
before we're even done with him. People
really have messed up parents like that who
use their children like that make them think
that their body is the only thing they have
that is good an and they must use it to get
what they want.

I know uncle Victor made sure that she's

always protected and even though they
wanted to sell her and couldn't because
mbuso came and saved her and killed the
man who was suppose to buy her but I can't
help and think that they had other plans for
lungi because she's the one who isn't their
child and she's the one who was suppose
to be like buhle...be messed up and
everything. What were their plans exactly
for my sister?... My phone rings and it's dad

Me:" Mapholoba " ( their clan name )

Dad:" seun " ( son )

Me:" konke kuhamba kahle? " ( is

everything okay ? ) "

Dad:" my contact has just called he says

the mazibuko's are in newcastle staying
with someone "

Me:" what? they were just under our noses

this whole time? "

Dad:" they knew that we were not going to

look for them there "

Me:" OK so when are going to get them "

Dad:" Relax they arrived two days ago. We
have to let them settle in and make them
think that we won't come. My guy is
watching them twenty four seven they won't
escape us this time "

Me:" dad these people are smart we have

to get them now before they go missing
again because you know they won't stay at
newcastle for long "

Dad:" I'll send you their pictures they did

plastic surgery and you wont be able to
recognise them. They think no one knows
it's them so we must be careful and let them
relax then we'll catch them when they least
expect it "

Me:" How many people are watching them?

"

Dad:" ten of our best guys seun don't worry

"
Me:" keep me updated then "

Dad:" where is their daughter ? "

Me:" she's somewhere safe "

Dad:" mbuso that girl better not escape "

Me:" she won't dad I promise. I'm on my

way there now to see her "

Dad:" ok. we'll talk later then "

Me:" sure grandpa "

Dad:" you do realise that your almost fourty

and you have nothing "

Me:" I have my company dad I have luh

aunty you and my nephew or niece. You're
all the people I need "
Dad:" You are going to die an old sad man
who has no wife or kids if you keep running
away from commitment "

Me:" Dad you're still single I haven't seen

you with any woman since mom died "

Dad:" your mom was my soulmate and I

don't think I'll ever find someone like her "

Me:" ofcause you won't find someone like

her but maybe you'll find someone better.
You deserve to be happy dad and I don't
want you to die alone "

Dad:" I have found all my kids I'm happy

and now I'm looking forward to meeting my
grandchild then maybe God will keep me
until I meet your kids and then watch both
of you get married and then I'll die a happy
man and be reunited with your mother "
Me:" I wish when I meet someone I will get
to experience the type of love you and mom
had. It was special and one of a kind...I
miss her dad especiallly now that we found
my baby sister "

Dad:" I miss her too seun and she's happy

that we are all united. You need to start
looking for a right woman you are not
getting younger. You don't want to start
palying with your first born when your fourty
and second born fourty five "

Me:" I know dad I know " I chuckle

Dad:" we'll talk later then "

Me:" ok dad bye " he hungs up and I groan.

We always have the same conversation
everytime we talk on the phone. I leave the
office bye " he hungs up and I groan. We
always have the same conversation
everytime we talk on the phone. I leave the
office get in the car and drive I wonder if
buhle and celeste haven't killed each other
because they fight like a married couple.
The security lets me through and I park the
car and get in the house.

The first thing I see is buhle kneeling down

on the floor and wiping it wearing a maids
uniform and celeste is sitting on the couch
directing her where to wipe. The uniform
she's wearing is so short you can actually
see her sagging butt and she looks black
and blue. Damn mbuso must have really
beat her up pretty bad and she looks like
her whole body hurts.

Me:" what is going on? " I'm shocked

because I wonder what happend that got
buhle to be this obedient.

Celeste:" boss how's it going ? "

Me:" good why is she wiping the floor? "
buhle doesn't even acknowledge me and
continues to wipe the floor.

Celeste:" mbuso happend. That son of a

gun can use sjambok boss yoh! you should
have seen him beating her up with it. For a
moment I thought he was going to use it on
me too " she shrugs her body

Me:" when did he come ? "

Celeste:" yesterday morning. Buhle started

calling him names because she was upset
that ya'll took out her implants demanded
drugs then threw hot coffee on mbuso and
he calmly went to his car and came back
with a sjambok and started whipping her. I
think he whipped out her stubborness and
smart mouth because she started calling
him bhuti (big brother ) mbuso and begged
him to stop and she'll never disrepect him
again. Boss I hope your sister never makes
him that angry "

Me:" I'll fucken kill him if he ever puts his

hands on my sister like that. Did he give her
any medicine? "

Celeste:" the doctor came and gave her

some medicine "

Me:" buhle can you not piss off mbuso

because I'm sure he is close to killing you
and one more smart comment out of your
smart mouth he's going to kill you " she
stops and looks at me

Buhle:" I promise I will behave please don't

let him beat me again....it's too much now
and my body can't take any more beatings
and I look like a mess. No man will ever
look at me again " she sounds so sad
She's right when she says she looks like a
mess. We told the doctor to just take out
the implants and stitch where he took out
the silicones. Her body is botched skin
sagging and being a crack whore is not
helping her at all.

Me:" when did you have your last fix? "

Buhle:" she won't give it to me she said I

must wipe this whole floor then she'll give
me some "

Celeste:" Mbuso said I shouldn't give you

any but you busy twitching around me is
driving me insane so I'll give you some. You
see I'm the only nice one here " buhle
ignores her and continues to wipe the floor.

Me:" I came to see if you two haven't killed

each other and I'm glad someone is
behaving between the two of you. Give her
a fix after she's done and give her
something long to cover all that fucking
sagging skin "

Celeste:" sure boss where are you going

now ? "

Me:" none of your business "

Celeste:" someone needs to get laid " she

laughs

Me:" I'm out of here. "

I leave these two and go to a club me and

my bothers frequent at and find them
already there sitting at our favourite spot
with some girls dancing and they are almost
wearing close to nothing and my brothers
are concerntrating on these girls and you
can tell they look like hungry students. I
ignore them and order myself a drink and
look around the club and It looks full. My
mind keeps going to the conversation I had
with dad about me settling down and I know
he is right. It has been weighing heavly on
my mind that I need to settle down and
have a family of my own.

When I go home there is no one to come

too and it feels lonely....I do feel lonely
sometimes and I want someone to share
my life with but when I think about what
hapend to mom and dad and him losing his
soulmate it scares me to nthink it might
happen to me too and I don't know if I can
handle that but I have to try someday and
have faith.

I always watch mbuso and see whenever

he talks about my sister or read messages
she sent him his face lights up and I can
see that he really loves her. He came to me
and asked for her hand in marriage and I
promised to kill him should she ever cry
because of him or do anything that will hurt
her or cause her harm he promised he will
do his best not to hurt in anyway then I
agreed because she loves him. The only
problem now he is facing is going to ask
dad and knowing my dad he is going to
make mbuso sweat it out before he gives
him his blessings to marry his only
daughter.

I wonder if someone's dad will aslo make

me sweat it out like how dad is going to do
with mbuso but first Inhave to find that
someone then worry about the rest later.
He wants to make her his wife as soon as
possible and that somehow makes me want
to have my own family. As I'm busy thinking
and drinking my eyes land on these girls
that have just entered the club and I watch
them they are three and two of them look
like they are already drunk.

My phone vibrates and I take it out and it's

a message from celeste.
" Buhle is high and she says he has a child
with mbuso "

Fuck no!...I'm going to kill that bitch if she's

lying she's not going ruin my sister's
happiness never!. I send celeste an sms
and tell her to record buhle and I'll see her
tomorrow then send mbuso ans sms too
and he calls

Me:" mbuso what did you do you fool ? "

Him:" what are you talking about? "

Me:" get your ass right here tomorrow "

Him:" I have to take your sister home

tomorrow because she's at the hospital "

Me:" why what happend and why didn't you

tell me? "
Him:" nothing to worry about the doctor said
baby was playing that's why luh was
experiencing pain "

Me:" after you drop her off get your ass

here in durban " I hang up...Fuck I don't
need this stress right now. I gulp down my
drink and order another one and continue to
watch those girls dancing.
CHAPTER 18.
SOMEWHERE IN DURBAN.
A lots of African novels available here
www.allnovelworld.com
I'm running really late this morning and I
was suppose to have opened the shop by
now its 6:30 am and we open at 6 am when
we have a function to prepare for but
someone was just being difficult and I didn't
sleep at all last night God just thinking
about it....let me not go there. I park my car
outside the shop and see my two best
friends and co-workers have arrived. I'm not
going to hear the end of me being late
again.

Me:" guys sorry I'm late " I unlock the door

and we get inside they don't say anything
and I can feel their eyes drilling a whole on
the back of my head. I make my way to the
small kitchen we have and start preparing
for the platters for 40 people we are
suppose to deliver for at 10 am at some
office where they having a business
breakfast meeting and the platters are all
different.

Me:" Guys I apologised now...please don't

give me the silent treatment " I turn around
and look at them and they are just standing
there folding their arms.

Karabo:" Ayanda this can't go on anymore "

she says and I sigh.
Me:" Not now karabo please....it's still early
" I look at both of them

Lilly:" the time is never right with you

aya...look at you...you're a mess "

Me:" I know friend " I look down and cover

my face beacuse I really feel like crying. I
feel their arms hugging me and I hug them
back telling myself I'm not going to cry.

Me:" I know it's hard guys but please don't

give up on me because I really need you
and can't do this without you. I'll fix it I
promise you"

Lilly:" We know you will but I hope really

soon ayanda before he fixes you for good "
that's what really scares me

Karabo:" But we'll kill him before he kills you

and we'll hide his body"
Lilly:" we'll burn him first the chop him to
pieces and dump them all around south
africa so no one will find him " we all laugh
because I know they'll do it and I love them
to bits.

Me:" You guys are crazy and I love you just

the way you are " we break the hug

Lilly:" why don't you take a cup of coffee

and get yourself together then come back "

Me:" Thanks guys I owe you alot...I'll be

back " I go to the office we share make
coffee and go through my phone and no
messages from him. I say a silent thank you
to God that my boyfriend hasn't phoned
me....yet. I drink my coffee silently then
finsh and join the girls. We prepare
everything quickly cause yesterday before
we left we had some preparations done so
we won't do too much this morning and by
nine am we are done.
Me:"Lets load up guys and deliver." We are
excited because the business is only a year
old so getting clients sometimes is not easy
as we had hoped but we're hoping that
since other business man and business
women that will be there where we are
going to deliver the platters they'll enjoy our
food and ask for us to cater for their future
business functions aswell.

We arrive at the office and a receptionist

takes us to the other side of boardroom and
we place all the platers and drinks then
leave.

ReceptionLady:" Here is the other half of

the check and thank you for your services "

Me:" Thank you and please don't forget to

recommend our business to other people
and also you guys can call us anytime
whenever you need us "
ReceptionLady:" we'll do " we shake hands
with her and leave.

Karabo:" Done for today....so why don't we

go to Mug and Bean and have late
breakfast " she suggests and we all agree
and drive there and order

Lilli:" It's friday today so any plans guys? "

she asks as were eating

Me:" Nope..no going out for me...I need to

rest " I tell them

Lilly:" What happend yesterday....how bad

was it? "

Me:" Same as always it wasn't that bad " I

lie to my friends and I feel bad

Lilly:" I dont understand why can't you just

leave him "
Me:" You know lilly that leaving a guy like
tshepo is not easy....he hangs out with
gangsters and you know how... how scary
he can be " I blink fast so they won't see I'm
tearing up.

Karabo:" Eish I know girl I just wish he

showed you that side of him when you first
started going out" I wish he did too.

Lilly:" One day he'll meet his match and I'm

just surprised that he hasn't broken
something in your body yet" I don't say
anything because I know for sure he has
broken my ribs and he phoned his doctor
friend for help and give me something and I
hid that from them.

Karabo:" Maybe he'll meet more than his

match"

Me:" I curse the day I met him " I really do

Karabo:" he doesn't deserve you and you
my friend one day you'll meet someone
who'll be worthy to call you theirs." I place
my hand on top of hers

Me:" Yeah right....the day I get out of this

situationship I'm not jumping into any
relationship I'm going to stay single for
aslong as I want " we all laugh and we
continue talking about everything. I don't
check my phone because I just want to
enjoy being with my friends.

Me:" You know what....we should go out

and celebrate I'ts been a while since we
went dancing and I think we should do a
sleep over after the club " They squeek and
people look at our table and we laugh.

Karabo:" and I know just the place...It's new

and they opening it tonight "
Lilly:" hell yes we are and lilly we're
sleeping at your place tonight "

Karabo:"so why don't we go and do a little

shopping for tonight and tomorrow " we
agree then pay the bill and leave but first
we go and check shop and tell security of
the building that we'll be back on monday
and leave.

We go shopping aand I buy a black long

loose sleeveless jumpsuit and lilly buys a
freakem dress that barely covers her ass
and thando cause she's tall she also buys a
freakem dress that exposes her long legs.
we leave the mall and head to my place
and I take all the things I'm going to need
for the weekend and leave going to
karabo's place so she'll collect her things
too and then go to lilly's place where we are
going to spend the weekend. We arrive and
they get started on the wine that was on
lilly's fridge.
Lilly:" You want a glass of wine?"

Me:" still too early I'm going to nap guys.

wake me up at 5 so I can cook before we
leave we can't drink on an empty stomachs
"

Karabo: " we are starting the party now "

Me:" alcoholics " we laugh and I leave them

and go to thando's spare bedroom. Lilly has
a sugar daddy that pays this flat for her and
has asked her to stop working because he
says he'll take care of her but you know
these man they are unpredictable.

My name is Ayanda Sibiya and I'm 27

originally from witbank both my parents are
dead and I was their only child. I lived with
my grandmother then she died and then I
had to live with my father's brother who took
over my parent's house when they passed
away. I lived with him and his family until he
kicked me out the second year after I
finished my matric. I was doing piece jobs
by then and I had managed to save some
money that I will use to go to durban and
start a new life.

I met karabo and lilly when we were all

working at kfc. Most of the time we would
work the same shifts and so we bonded
and became great friends. When I told them
that my uncle has given two weeks to get
out of his 'house' they were shocked and
then I told them that I am leaving Witbank
and going to be living in durban and they
said they are coming with me because we
come from fucked up families and no one
will miss us.

With the money we had we managed to get

a place to rent. We struggled to get jobs
because we were knew in the big city and
didn't know that much of it but we get piece
jobs part-time jobs here and there and
sometimes we would go for 3 months
jobless and sometimes one of us or both
would find jobs. I consider these girls my
family and I'll do anything for them that's
how tight and close we are.

I later found a job at Jet karabo got a job at

KFC and lilly was working Spur. We moved
out of the place we lived at when we first
relocated when we found better jobs. I
found a job at woolworths later that year
and the income was a little bit better cause
it made a difference and we went to the
CICP to register a catering business.

Then one lucky day we met this lady who

was relocating to joburg and asked us if we
wanted to rent a flat and we agreed
because she knew lilly from work and so we
moved to her place and we lived there. lilly
met her sugar daddy and he took over and
payed the flat 6 months in advance and it
was a huge stress reliaver and we we were
so ngrateful.

This one time we went to mug and bean

and there were some guys sitting behind us
they arrived after us. When we finshed
eating one of them asked if he could pay for
our bill because he said and I quote
"Beautiful women like you are suppose to
be spoiled dined and pampered so please
ladies allow me to pay your bill " and we
agreed little did I know what I was getting
myself into.

He asked to take me out and he was

charming so I agreed and we dated and the
first 5 months were good then on our
seventh month he showed me his true
colours. It's a year now since I've been with
him. My friends know that he physically
abuses me slaps here and there but they
don't know how bad it gets. It sounds easy
when someone sasy why don't you just get
out and leave him but when someone has a
hold on you emotionally...you not going
anywhere.

His name is Tshepo and he is 37 he lives at

his own place and works for a delivery
company they deliver expensive furniture
that is imported by private clients the
company he works for specialises in that. I
have my own place that I rent it's not fancy
just a one bedroom flat with a kitchennete
and siting room as well as the bathroom.

I hear someone calling my name and I can't

make out who it is. They shake me roughly
this time and I panick and scream
Lilly:" ayanda! ayanda! It's me....shhhhh
don't cry" I feel disoriented who's crying
now?

Me:" Lilly what's wrong why are you crying?

" her face is full of tears
Lilly:" you were screaming for him to
stop...kicking you...you were screaming in
pain aya" oh God she hugs me and cries

Me:" hey I was just having a

nightmare...don't cry now " I look around the
room and see Karabo standing there
looking at me like she wants to kill me and
tears are falling down her face.

Me:" karabo....." lilly continues to cry

Karabo:" WHAT AYANDA WHAT?!....we

know how bad he hits you okay...we've
seen the marks on your back...yes we
know...." she's shouting. " you want tshepo
to kill you and take you away from us
huh.....look at you....you miserable ever
since you met that scumbag and you're
proctect him "

Me:" what NO! I'm not protecting him! "

Karabo:" yes you are! everytime we ask you
if he hits you or what's really going on...you
lie! lie! and lie!. Why ayanda why!? " I've
never seen her this angry

Me:" You don't understand " I say tears

rolling down my face

Karabo:" Then make me...make us

understand please aya " I look at my friends
no my sisters and see what I have done to
them by bringing this man into our lives and
it breaks my heart knowing that I hurt them
by keeping things from him.

Me:" he has anger issues and he takes

them out on me. I don't say anything
because I know it's going to hurt you guys
more than it does me and I don't want that
for you."

Lilly:"but you want it for yourself...right?"

Me:" No " I cry

Karabo:" well I'm not going to lose a sister

and one of my best friends I'll be damned if
that happens "

Me:" you're not going to lose me guys " I'm

nor sure about that

Karabo:" we already have. You're not

happy aya the laughs and smiles you share
with us don't reach your beautiful eyes...you
are always tense and panick whenever he
phones you" she breathes out deeply wipes
her eyes and gets on the bed with us and
we hold hands

Lilly:" you have to choose aya. It's either

your life and us or him."

Me:" It's you guys always " I tell them.

Karabo:" then break up with him and we'll
even come with you so you won't be alone
and won't be able to convince you
otherwise "

Me: "I will

Sponsored
wipes her eyes and gets on the bed with us
and we hold hands

Lilly:" you have to choose aya. It's either

your life and us or him."

Me:" It's you guys always " I tell them.

Karabo:" then break up with him and we'll

even come with you so you won't be alone
and won't be able to convince you
otherwise "

Me: "I will on monday I'll call him to come at

lilly's place I promise " I know its the right
thing to do and I'm going to do it. I'm tired of
livin my life in fear.

Me:" I love you guys and thank you for

being here " we hug

Them:" we love you too "

Karabo:" uhm is this te part where we are

suppose to kiss and fuck each other? "

Me:" eeewwwww " I say we all laugh our

asses off

Me:" let me go cook so we can eat before

we hit the club "

Lilly:" already did...it's seven pm now and

you needed the rest " God I'm blessed to
have these girls in my life.

Me:" Thanks guys lets go eat and get ready

" we leave the the bedroom and eat steak
gravy and pap...hey don't judge us we love
our pap.

Karabo and lilly take the bathroom first and

I'm the last one so by the time I get out of
the bath they almost halfway done and I
start getting ready dressing up and do my
make up. I hear my phone beep and I know
it's tshepo and for a minute I panick. I look
at it see 3 missed calls from him and I
delete them and the message before I even
read it because I know it's nothing good.

Karabo:" Aya come out! we gonna find the

club full if we don't leave now" she can be
impatient sometimes.

Me:" Coming I'm almost done" I finish

dressing up wearing my wedge sandals
with my jumpsuit and then I take my purse
and see if all I'm going to need is inside it
then leave.
Lilly:" I wish you'd wear tight clothes you
know....you have a great body aya like
damn....not that loose thing you wearing"

Me:"Stop it I love what I'm wearing and I

feel comfortable"

Lilly:" But...."

Karabo:" no lindi leave her alone lets go

guys" i giggle

Me:" Damn ya'll look hot yeses" we laugh.

Lilly is tall and she's wearing that freakem
dress and 6 inch stilettos and a peruvian
weave wow and karabo is short she's a size
32 and also wearing heels but they not tall
because if she doesn't wear them
sometimes she looks like a 18 year old and
she hates that.

Karabo:"You too look hot...now let's take

these shots and go shake our asses" we
drink shots of vodka neat and i feel my
throat getting warm.

Me:" damn this is strong....the uber is here

guys...we are not driving because we are
going to get drunk. lets go bitches and turn
up! " we scream and leave the apartment
and the uber driver takes us to the "Mile
High Club".

We get there and the line of people waiting

to get in is long.

Me:" Oh look at the line...there's no ways

are we getting in "

Lilly:" Relax I know those bouncers just

follow me bitches "

Karabo:" I'm not surprised" she says and so

we follow lilly and stand infront of the other
group of girls.
Lilly:" Hey boys " she greets the bouncers
and they look at us

"hey you!..can't you see that you have to

wait in the line like the rest of us" says
some girl who did the whole contour thing
wrong.

Bouncer1:" Ah my girl lilly how you doing

baby?" we look at each with karabo

Lilly:" Beautiful as always you know me "

she says

Bouncer2:" we sure do and your friends are

gorgeous too" he looks at us from head to
toe and looks at the jumper i'm wearing for
too long and i start to feel uncorfortable and
the other bouncer elbows him

Bouncer1:" I have just the perfect table for

you...follow me" then he presses an
earpiece and tells someone to come in the
front and the other girl loses it and calls us
all kinds of names but we don't hear as we
get inside and we're swallowed by the
music inside.

Me:" Wow this place is amazing....it even

has a second floor" karabo says

Bouncer:" V.I.P only on the second floor"

Lilly:" thanks mark for getting us in " so the

bouncer's name is Mark ohk I thought he
might have a scary name since he's big and
strong

Him:" anything for you baby girl " he smiles

at lilly and I get a sense that there's more
going on between these two and we are
going to ask her. He takes us just below a
v.i.p area above us that has a glass wall but
you can't see inside maybe it's the office I
tell myself.
Mark:" Sorry girls I can't take you to the
vip..this is the best I can do "

Me:" thank you mark we are grateful " I

smile and he seems to look at me like he's
trying to read me or sees something and I
don't know what and I just don't like it.

Mark:" Let me know if you guys need

anything. I'll send my girl tina here to get
you something enjoy your night ladies" lilly
kisses his cheek and the he leaves us and
we sit down.

Karabo:" ok what was that about? "

Me:" please do tell us " I stare at her

Karabo:" no I meant him looking at you like

that " she corrects me

Me:" I know it freaked me out too" I honestly

say
Lilly:" He's a good guy. I've known him for a
year so don't worry about him...he's just
protective thats all " huh?

Me:" protective of what lilly?....God I hope

you didn't tell him anything about me?"

Lilly:" It might have slipped up okay and I

was worried and so I ended up telling him
about tshepo "

Me:" I could kill you right ! "

Lilly:" I'm sorry okay. I'm just scared of

losing you I'm sorry "

Me:"I know you mean well. I'm sorry for

snapping at you " damn liily and talking
about my business.

Lilly:" We can't let that scumbag ruin our

night "
Karabo:" ncoooh look at you guys....group
hug" we laugh and hug then the waitress
comes and we order a bottle of champagne
we can afford it.

We see the girls we left outside passing by

us and going to the vip area and their
leader gives us a look and smirks and they
all laugh looking at our direction.

Lilly:"I don't like her "

Karabo:" she's just an ugly bitch wearing all

that heavy make up to hide that alcoholic
face she has under there." we burst out
laughing really hard

Me:" lets not mind them guys were are here

to have a good time." we click cheers to
that and right on que the dj plays rihanna's
song cheers to freaking weekend and we
stand up with our glasses and start singing
loud with the song and dancing to it too.
The Dj keeps them coming playing one
after another and we're singing non-stop.
Man it feels so good to be out with your
friends and having a good time and not
stressing....but deep down I am a little. I
know tshepo is going to be pissed that I
didn't answer his calls and call him back
and I am scared.

karabo:" hey don't do that don't think about

him" this one she knows me

Me:" I'm not " she raises her eyebrow and I

laugh

Me:" ok I'll stop" we don't leave our table we

dance there just chilling having a great time
and guys come to ask if they'll join us but
we decline nicely and they leave us alone.
It's now midnight and we're feeling hungry
so we order a meat platter
Me:" guys when are we leaving? " I ask
them

Lilly:" 2 am " I laugh shaking my head

because if it was up to her we'd stay there
the whole night and leave in the morning
thats how much she loves clubs and
dancing.

Me:" I'm going to the ladies to powder my

nose would you ladies like to join me ? " I
ask them twanging

Karabo:" we good for now ma'lady " she

slurs terribly and we crack up. I ask one of
the bouncers where's the ladies room and
shows me and make my way there and
there's a line and I really wanna go I can't
wait that long.

I come back and make my way to the v.i.p

area and ask the bouncer if I could use the
ladies room there but he refuses and I sigh
and turn back when he stops me and lets
me pass to use the ladies room there and I
get inside and do my business wash my
hands then leave the toilet and collide with
that contour gone bad girl and she pushes
me out of the way and I just look ar
her...like how old are we?.

I ignore her and I'm about to turn when I

feel this shudder from the back of my neck
going all over my body and my skin gets
covered in goosepumbs and I freeze not
understanding what is going on because
this is a different one and not the one I get
when tshepo gets next to me or touches
where i just want to crawl out of my skin
and runaway.

This one feels different. I look behind me

but all I can see is a passage that is a little
dim and there are doors I shake my head
and push her and walk away and go to
where we are sitting. We eat the meat
platter and its kinda okay but hey...then
karabo opens another bottle of champagne
and we continue to drink. I look at the time
and see it 1:30 am and I know we have to
go now.

Me:" Guys we're drunk now so it's time we

go home "

Karabo:" yeah...you right...lets go bitches "

she's drunk. I waive at the waiter and he
comes at our table.

Me:" uhm we'd like to pay our bill "

Waiter:" ma'am everything is on the house.

Someone payed your bill" what hell no
we're going to be kidnaped or owe
someone and i don't want that. Fuck is it
Tshepo who has paid the bill...Fuck I'm
fucked
Me:"thank you but we had already have our
own transport and thank whoever paid our
bill " he nods and leaves.

The girls and I leave the club and when we

get outside we see mark standing next to a
huge SUV.

Mark:" girls I 'll be taking you home. Your

uber driver was paid so don't worry and I'll
sleep better knowing I left you home where
you're safe."

Me:" can we trust him lilly? " I might be

drunk but not that drunk to go with a
stranger who just happens to offer us a lift

Lilly:" yes we can don't worry friend" so we

get inside with mark driving and he takes us
home. We arrive at lilly's place which he
already knows because he didn't ask for
direction and we get inside the elevator and
then the flat.
karabo:" thanks mark baby " she says
giggling

Me:" thank you marh good night mark " go

sleep in the spare bedroom and karabo
doses off as soon as she's under the covers
but before I sleep I check my phone and
see 8 missed calls and 10 messages from
tshepo and I delete all of them then I hear
groaning sounds and oh damn lilly and
mark are fucking... I fall asleep hearing
those sounds.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 18.

My head is pounding and I feel like a mess

and my mouth is dry it feel like its been
filled with cotton. I turn on my side but I
can't because karabo has taken most of the
bed.
Me:" Ugh that's why I hate sharing a bed
with you cause you kick " she giggles and I
do too.

Karabo:" morning sunshine " she says

Me:" morning how long have you been

awake? "

Her:" not long was awaken by your phone

ringing non-stop "

Me:" ugh tshepo? " she nods

Her:" you know he's pissed wherever the

hell he is " she says

Me:" I know and I can't ignore him forever. I

have to breakup with him today "

Her:" that's my girl and we'll be right here

with you" I shake my head no and get off
the bed.
Me:" no karabo. I have to do this alone I
don't want him thinking it's you guys who
want me to break up with him."

Her:" I'm just scared of what he'll do to you

when you tell him it's over"

Me:" If I see any signs that he's losing it I'll

immediately call you guys."

Her:" and we'll bring mark with us " she

says and we both giggle

Me:" I heard them last night going at it " I

say blushing

Her:" oh my god and I missed out damn "

she can shock you sometimes.

Me:" what were you going to do? " I ask her

Her:" watch them of course" we both laugh
then we hear lilly shouting

Lilly:" Stop talking about my escapedes and

come eat you shits " we laugh and we find
her stuffing her face with bacon and it
smells amazing

Me:" look who got it all this morning" she

smiles not even denying it

Karabo:" oh! oh! oh! mark yes right there

yeeeesssss" she says moving her hips up
and down the chair and we laugh

Lilly:" karabo why are so etxra yeah? "

thando asks her we laugh and I look at the
time it's 11 am

Karabo:" I am what I am" she says eating

bacon. I leave them and go to the bathroom
and shower quickly then brush my teeth
come back find them still eating I sit down
and join them.

Me:" After brunch I'm going to my place to

break things off with tshepo" I breathe out
deeply

Lilly:" you want us to come with you? "

Me:" no but I'll call you if I see him losing it"

I tell them

Lilly:" not if when."

Me:" I'll be fine don't worry and you missy

what is happening between you and mark?"
she laughs

Lilly:" nothing is going on. we hook up now

and then"

Karabo:" what?...how come we don't know?

"
Lilly:" because you guys don't live with me
anymore that's why " she rolls her eyes

Me:" what about papa smurf? " we laugh

cause thats the nickname I gave him. Lilly's
sugar daddy has silver hair and beard so he
reminded of papa smurf the cartoons

Lilly:" he won't find out and if he does so

what he's married " she shrugs and we
don't say anything. We've had this
conversation with her about being the other
woman but she doesn't mind....so yeah its
none of our business.

Me:" Let me go guys I'll call and let you

know" they nod and I leave. I get inside my
car and check my phone and see he
phoned again and since it was on silent I
didn't hear it and it's not like I was going to
answer it anyway.
I drive to my place and call him on the way
on loud speaker but it rings and goes
straight to voicemail. I see his car parked
outside the flat I live in and my heart drops.
He's sitting in the car smoking and he sees
me. I park my car and get out take my bag
and try to lock it but the keys fall because
I'm trembling. He also gets out of the car
and locks it and waits for me to finish then I
feel him standing behind me not saying
anything and that freaks me out.

Him:" you ok baby? " he asks me and I nod

Me:" yes...I'm okay" I lie. He takes my keys

and bag holds my hand and we go to the
flat. He unlocks the door we get in then he
closes it not saying anything and takes me
to the bedroom. This is unlike him because
what I expected is him slapping me on the
face the moment he closed that door. He
takes off his shoes and I'm just standing
there not knowing what to do.
Him:" Come lets nap I didn't sleep last
night" he gets on my bed and lays down
facing up and looks at me

Him:" baby come I'm not going to sleep

alone" he says

Me:" Tshepo we need to talk I...." I try to

talk but he interupts me

Him:" Can we sleep first then eat and then

we can talk " he says bored or tired I don't
know so I let it go but the other part of my
brain is telling me to tell him now that it's
over and the other not so smart part of my
brain ignores that. I'm wearing yoga pants
and a long sleeve top and sneakers so I
take the sneakers off and get in bed with
him. I lay with my back to his front and he
drags my body close to his and I tense and
shake.
Him:" Stop doing that everytime I touch you
or hold you you tense up and I don't like it"
he says like that hurts him..yeah right like
its my fault that I feel or do that. He starts
kissimg my neck and I feel his dick getting
hard and he presses it on my ass. God I
don't want to do it.

Me:" Tshepo....." he rolls me to my back

and gets between my legs and in my mind
I'm screaming no don't touch me and I don't
want to do this but my lips remain closed.

Him:" shhh I missed you and I just want to

feel you" I try to talk but he silences me with
a kiss and doesn't stop. He tries to take off
my top but I grip it to stop him then he looks
at me and I can see he's trying really hard
not to get but he's demeaner says
otherwise so I let him take it off along with
all of my clothes and I lay there naked still
waiting for the blows but they never come.
he takes off his clothes aswell and then
takes out a condom on my side table and
sheathes himself. He opens my legs and
gets between them and start kissing me
and those kisses and the way he's holding
me reminds me of the first time we slept
together and I feel tears covering me eyes.

Him:" I'm going to make you feel so good

baby" he says

He kisses me from my breasts to my

stomach and down there and for the first
time ever he goes down on me and eats
me. I try to get my body to relax but my
mind won't let me because I hate every
single thing he's doing. I skwirm and try to
push off his face but he holds me tight still
eating me and I fake my orgasm then he
quickly moves up my body and enters me
slow and I close my eyes. He buries his
hands on my hair and kisses me deeply
and sofly and I can taste myself on him and
he's still moving in and out of me slowly.

Me:" what's going on why are you being like

this?" I ask him tearing up.

Him:" I'm just showing you how much I love

you" he changes the pace and flexes his
hips and ass and starts to fuck me fast and
I start to shake my body faking my orgasm
covering my face then he comes groaning
loud. We lay there not saying anything then
he gets up and goes to the bathroom to
flush the condom comes with a wet towel
and cleans me and he's never done that
before I always clean myself.

Him:" Lets go get something to eat then

we'll talk" I nod and he wears his clothes
and I wear mine too but he stops me ."Why
don't you wear that dress I like" he says
Me:" it's not that hot for me to wear that
dress " I tell him

Him:" I know baby but it's warm outside and

we'll be back before it starts getting chilly "

Me:" ok " I keep asking myself why he

wants me wear that dress or maybe he's
hoping for another round.

I wear it and then take my bag cause I

know my phone is inside then we leave. We
take my car he's the one that's driving and
he plays metro fm comes with a wet towel
and cleans me and he's never done that
before I always clean myself.

Him:" Lets go get something to eat then

we'll talk" I nod and he wears his clothes
and I wear mine too but he stops me ."Why
don't you wear that dress I like" he says
Me:" it's not that hot for me to wear that
dress " I tell him

Him:" I know baby but it's warm outside and

we'll be back before it starts getting chilly "

Me:" ok " I keep asking myself why he

wants me wear that dress or maybe he's
hoping for another round.

I wear it and then take my bag cause I

know my phone is inside then we leave. We
take my car he's the one that's driving and
he plays metro fm the ride is silent we don't
talk and I'm growing very uncomfortable
with every passing moment and I try to read
him to see where his head is at but it's like
he has closed off. We go to nandos drive
through he orders for both of us as always
and then we leave. He takes the direction to
his town house and my danger raider goes
from 10 to 100
Me:" I thought we were going back to my
place tshepo? " he looks at me smiles and
the hair on the back of my neck stands and
I know its bad.
Him:" there's something I have to do it's
going to be quick and then we'll go to your
place" he holds my hand and kisses it. He
drives in and parks his car gets out and I
stay in inside.

Me:" I'll wait here you go ahead " he looks

at me like I'm crazy and comes on my side
of the car opens the door and drags me
outside and I take my back with me.

Him:" I want a second round too please

come ?"

Me:" No! " I shake my head and stand still

but he holds my hand tightly and drag me
inside the house and locks the door behind
me I try to pull my arm but it's too tight then
I feel a hot full slap across my face and I
stagger and see stars. I cover my face but
he punches my stomach and I fall on my
knees scream for someone to help me but I
know no one is going to help me.

Me:'' Tshepo please...don't beat me

anymore I can't take it" I beg him crying

Him:"You stupid bitch (punch) you thought I

would just let it go huh" he continues to kick
and and punch me where ever his hands
and feet land on my body.

Me:" It's over tshepo...I'm done with you

you can't keep using me as your punching
bag" I tell him

Him:" You piece of shit! (punch) frigid bitch!

(punch)..where the fuck were you? (kick) I
phoned you (kick) and you ignore my calls
(kick) huh...let me show what I do to
someone who ignores me" he brutally kicks
and punches me all over.
I cry my eyes out and try to run but I feel his
shoe on my back holding me down then I
feel a kiss of a leather belt on my back and
I scream try to tug it free from him but he's
much stronger than me. He beats me black
and blue and I feel like I'm going to die I'm
tired of fighting and begging him to stop and
I just lay there as he continues to....to whip
me with his belt my body and face hurts so
much and I can't even move.

Him:" Answer me you stinking whore..." he

laughs and I cry hard...had not accepted to
go on a date with him I wouldn't have met
this man and be going through this.

He continues to call me names and asks

me where I went why didn't I tell him who
did I fuck with my cold vagina who'd want
this cold vagina like its dead and I don't
answer him which pisses him off even
more. He beats me until my dress is teared
up and sticking on my skin. I stop crying
and just take the beating I feel very hot and
my lungs hurt from just breathing and I
notice that I'm covered in blood and the
floor too.

Him"I love you and you know that...It's you

who makes me do this...it's all your fault
and you have to make it up to me.." I don't
hear the rest of what he says as I pass out.

I'm awaken when I feel cold water all over

my body and I scream because my whole
body hurts and it burns very bad. I open my
eyes and see that I'm in his shower and one
of my eyes won't open because its swollen
shut.

Him:" I thought you were dead...oh God I

thought I killed you" I cough out blood and it
hurts.
He picks me up roughly not caring that I'm
hurt and throws me on top of the bed facing
up and I notice that I'm naked. He takes off
his pants and underwear and gets on top of
me and I try to move but my body can't
move at all and I just cry. He enters me
roughly and I'm dry it hurts so much and he
starts to rape me so rough I think I'm
bleeding down there and then comes and
start laughing like crazy and all I can do is
watch him crying my eyes out.

Him:" At least your good for one

thing....opening your legs" he slaps my
thighs and gets off the bed and he goes into
the shower and showers comes out and
wears clean clothes looking at me laughing
and shaking his head.

Him:" I'll be back just wait there exactly as

you are..I'm going to see my woman I bet
she's worried about me so I can't keep her
waiting" he then leaves. I hear his car
driving out and I try to move but its like
every bone in my flesh is breaking and
broken....God why did I agree to come with
him and sleep with him..why did I allow this
man into my life? this is all my fault.

I try move again and this time I do and I fall

off the bed and wince. I try to crawl but I
just hurt myself more so I drag my body to
the dining room on my stomach and then
see my bag. I get to it afraid that tshepo is
going to be here at any moment and kill me
this time. I open it and and look for my
phone and when I don't find it I panick but
try again and I find it this time and I speed
dial 1 and it rings

Karabo:" Ayanda? "

Me:" HELP ME!...HELP....I'M AT HIS

PLACE COME NOW "
CHAPTER 19.

MBUSO.

I'm going out of my mind trying to figure out

what the hell sicelo is talking about. He
can't be upset that I whiped buhle because
she started it and it is her fault that I ended
up beating her. I hope that fool is not
developing feelings for buhle because I
want that gitl out of my life and luh's life. I
had to tell the people I was going to sell
buhle too to wait and that I'll let them know
when.

Luh:" boo? "

Me:" baby? " we are at our place in

Ladysmith we arrived two hours ago. After
they discharged her I took my family and
drove us there. Her dad called her and
gave us few hours then he's coming to fetch
his daughter and I still have to ask him for
his blessings to allow me to marry her
daughter and he might say no and I don't
think luh would marry me without her
father's blessing and I wouldn't want that
either. If he says no I'll just have to prove to
him that I'm worthy of his daughter's love. I
love this woman and I'm tired of not waking
up and she's not next to me.

Her:" mbuso you're doing this again zoning

out when I'm talking with you " she's cute
when she's annoyed I pull her close and
kiss her

Me:" I'm sorry baby It's thinking about our

future and how perfect I want it to be for
you for us and our kids "

Her:" It's up to us to make it perfect boo.

We have to believe in our love and know
that it is strong and it can survive anything.
We have to be trust each other have each
other's backs be truthful and honest with
each other mbuso no matter what "

Me:" where were you all my life lungile "

Her:" fate bought us together "

Me:" buhle? no ways baby " she cracks up

Her:" no boo. Fate used her to bring you to

me and then it gave me my family. I have to
thank buhle because she saved my life "

Me:" when our babies are born then you too

can meet up and talk to her but for now I'll
make sure stays away from you "

Her:" promise me you won't kill her mbuso

because I know you "

Me:".......fine I won't kill her "

Her:" I love you mbuso and I don't want you
to go back to the way you were when we
first met. That person was angry and I don't
like that mbuso promise me you won't
change and go back to your old arrogant
self " she giggles man I love this woman

Me:" I promise I won't go back to my

arrogant old self "

Her:" that's the second promise you're

making to me and you better keep this one
"

Me:" I know I once promised you that I

wasn't going to intentionally hurt you and
I'm giving that promise again. I swear I
won't hurt you ever again "

Her:" I believe you "

Me:" I love you Mashiyamahle " She

blushes
Her:" I love you too zdaddy "

Me:" hmm...I'm your dzaddy? "

Her:" yes you are "

Me:" come here...." we kiss and I'm about to

take off her clothes when her phone rings
and I groan frustrated because I really want
to get some.

Her:" Dad......ok? " he's already here...this

man wants me to die from blue balls she
hangs up then looks at my dick and laughs

Me:" oh you laughing at me? "

Her:" dad is here outside go let him in while

I wash my face "

Me:" does he know this is your house ? "

Her:" no he thinks it's yours "

Me:" you have to tell him luh "

Her:" you bought me this house and so you

tell him "

Me:" let me go before he thinks I'm banging

you " she giggles and I get off the bed and
fix my hardon then leave.

I open the gate and he drives in with his car

then I meet him halfway when he gets out
of the car.

Me:" Good afternoon Mapholoba "

Him:" junior gumede how are you ? " we

shake hands ok this is good.

Me:" I'm good and happy "

Him:" I see because you have my daughter
all to yourself you want her to cohibitate
with you? "

Me:" No sir. Actually I wanted to talk to you

about something. I was going to come to
your house and ask you Sir...... "

Him:" mbuso talk? "

Me:" can we get in the house and sit down "

Him:" the house you brought my daughter?

" fuck he knows

Me:" yes sir and I was going to tell you

about it now too " he shakes his head like
he's defeated

Him:" fine lead the way " we get inside the

house and I lead him to the empty living
room then straight to the kitchen because
that's the only place that has chairs.
Me:" please sit down "

Him:" when are you furnishing it? "

Me:" I told her to hire an interior designer

and furnish it whatever way she
likes...whatever makes her happy "

HIim:" hmmm "

Me:" uhm sir. I know me meeting your

daughter was under very unfortunate
circumstances and things were just messed
up and there are many things I could have
done to avoid most of the things I did to her
and I would like to fix all of that and do
things the right way if you would allow me
the chance " I look at him and he's looking
at me not even blinking

Him:" I'm listening continue " this man is

very intimidating like my dad.
Me:" Sir with your permission I'm asking for
your daughter's hand in marriage. I would
love to marry your daughter and make her
my wife and build a home with her and
make you a grandfather of many grandkids
" I see a ghost smile when I say the last
part.

Him:" are you serious about what you're

asking mbuso ? "

Me:" with every being on my body sir "

Him:" and if I say no continue " this man is

very intimidating like my dad.

Me:" Sir with your permission I'm asking for

your daughter's hand in marriage. I would
love to marry your daughter and make her
my wife and build a home with her and
make you a grandfather of many grandkids
" I see a ghost smile when I say the last
part.

Him:" are you serious about what you're

asking mbuso ? "

Me:" with every being on my body sir "

Him:" and if I say no what are you going to

do ? "

Me:" it would break my heart sir I'm not

going to lie but I won't give up on asking
you again because I will prove myself to her
and to you that I love her. I will do anything
to protect her and I will give anything to see
her always happy. I will prove to you that
I'm worthy to be loved by her and that I
deserve her to be in my life because I lost
her once because I took her for granted and
it was the worst time of my life and I don't
ever want to go through that ever again. My
life doesn't make sense without her sir.
Please allow me to marry your daughter ".
fuck I'm sweating I wipe my forehead and
look at him.

Him:" go and get lungi " I get up and turn

but I see her coming and she smiles and
has tears in her eyes she was listening.
She comes to me and hugs me then looks
at me and I wipe her tears. She goes and
kisses her dad on the cheek then we sit
down hold hands and look at her dad.

Mapholoba:" Lungile yesterday I received a

letter from the Gumede family. They are
requesting a meeting with me and your
uncles and I accepted the letter and told
them we will be incontact with them. Mbuso
has asked me for your hand in marriage
and before I give him my answer I would
like to talk to you first "

Him:" Lungile my child finding you again

has brought joy in my life that I never
thought I will ever feel again and I thank
god and my ancerstors that we found each
other again and it was because of this man
sitting next you the man who's child you're
carrying and I don't know if I have ever said
it but thank you mbuso. Thank you for
saving her and doing what you thought was
best and sorry for the pressure I put you
on." I never thought I would hear luh's
father say this and I'm pleased.

Me:" thank you sir "

Him:" I'm also sorry my child for the things

we did to you thinking that we're making
right decisions but it was wrong of us to
make decisions without thinking about your
feelings so that's why I want you to tell me
how you feel about this man who wants to
marry you ".

Luh:" I forgive him dad for everything and I

have put it behind me because it is our
past. The man I know now is completely
different to the man I knew then. I know that
he loves me without a shadow of doubt and
I believe in him. I know he will do everything
in his power to always make us happy and
put us first in his life before anything else. I
respect him I love him dad and I want to be
his wife " I'm looking at her all this time
listening to her and I believe that my
ancerstors came through for me when I met
lungi.

Him:" I'm happy to hear that you are happy

my child. Mbuso uLungile is my child and
so please don't hurt her ever again she has
two dad's. You know she comes from a
very rich family even though she didn't grow
up rich but but my daughter forgets that she
is rich. You know that she can have
everything she wants and needs and she'll
never want for anything. She's a humble
person like her mother and that makes her
very vunrable and people will take
advantage of that and you must protect her
from such people "

Him:" what you both want is not a child's

play. When you do this you go all the way
for life traditional wedding and a white one if
you both want it. I don't want to keep both
of you from being happy and being with
each other and I want my daughter to be
happy and she chooses to be happy with
you so I won't deny you that. I've lived a
long empty life and now I just want to be
happy with all of my kids and that includes
you too mbuso because you are part of this
family now. You have my blessings to get
married.

Me:" thank you Mapholoba thank you vey

much! " I stand up and shake his hand but
he hugs me... a man hug.

Luh:" thank you daddy I love you " she hug

him too
Him:" I'm going to ask one thing though "

Us:" anything " we look at each other and

laugh.

Him:" can you get married before the baby

is born? " I look at luh and she looks

Luh:" dad I'm due in four months and

planning a wedding is stressful "

Me:" your mom my mom simphiwe your

aunts are all there even your doctor...tell
them what you want and leave the rest to
them "

Mapholoba:" I almost forgot the doctor " he

shakes his head smiling

Luh:" that's a great idea plus preston is

coming to check up on me today....thank
you boo and dad we'll have a wedding
before the baby is born "

Him:" thank you. Now lets go you need to

eat and rest " I walk them out to the car
then her dad gives us some privacy

Me:" I love you and thank you for what you

said to your dad "

Her:" I meant every word I said to him. I

love you too " I kiss her cheeck open the
door for her she gets in the car and off they
go.

That went better than I thought and a huge

weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
Now I have to go to durban and find out
what the hell is going on.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 19.
MBUSO.
To say I just love Lungi is an
understatement. I really love that woman
and I'll forever be grateful that she gave me
a second chance to be part of her life again
and the children we are going to have. I
meant every word I said to her father and I
don't want to make him dislike me or not
trust me with his daughters life. I'll move
heaven and earth to give her what she
wants or take away everything that hurts or
harms her.

I drive in to the house Sicelo and I bought

and we placed buhle there with celeste so
she can watch her and the security guys
and she better be not the reason why I'm
here or whatever sicelo thinks I did to her
because I'm seriously tired of her and her
bullshit. I get in the house and find sicelo
sitting down and looking miserable

Me:" what's wrong fool? you look so

miserable " I chuckle
Him:" fool is your ass "

Me:" what's wrong bro "

Him:" I'll tell you later right now we have a

problem or rather you have a problem "

Me:" is buhle dead ? "

Him:" no she's not "

Me:" then what is bro ? "

Him:" I was at a club last night and received

a text message from celeste telling me that
buhle is high...."

Me:" I told celeste not give her any why did

she do it? "

Him" brother ask her okay as I was telling

you before you kindly interupted me. She
says that she has a kid with you " I laugh
shaking my head because this bitch is way
more delisional than I thought.

Me:" this bitch is fucked up. where the fuck

is she "

Him:" do you know what this shit is going to

do to luh ? bro why did you fuck that bitch
raw ? " he shouts

Me:" man I've never fucked that bitch

raw!.... and you believed her lies bro? "

Him:" she was high and you know how it is

when you're high you start spilling secrets "

Me:" did I not tell you that Investigated that

bitch and found that she has a child and it
didn't cross your mind that if I had a kid with
her I would have found out and told you ? "
Him:" bro you know how conniving this bitch
is and keeping secrets is in her D.N.A ."

Me:" I don't have a fucken child with that

bitch! and where the fuck is she ! "

Him:" bro come down first before you

confront her "

Me:" don't tell me to calm down scelo. Can

you imagine if you had written what buhle
said on the text message you sent and your
sister happend to see it would you be telling
me to calm down scelo?. We could be
talking about something different now and
the doctor said not to stress her and this
was going to make her maybe lose
my...fuuck!. buhle get your ass down here
now!!!!! "

God why did I promise luh that I won't kill

this bitch because her skeaming and
conniving ass won't stop here from
spreading lies and causing problems
between me and luh.

Sicelo:" I'm sorry I believed her bro but you

understand why I had to assume that "

Me:" Sicelo we've known each other almost

the same time as I knew your sister and me
and you we got close. As a friend and your
future brother in-law I thought you knew me
better than that. You have seen me fucking
up with your sister and I confided in you
most of the things my three best friends
don't know about because you understand
me better and I think you know me better
than them too during the time we have
known each other. I know I have a past with
buhle and I realise that it is always going to
haunt me for the rest of my life But for you
to just assume brother and believe this shit
she's saying it fucken sucks "
Sicelo:" I panicked because luh was the
only person I thought is going to get hurt.
look bro you're more than my sisters
husband to be because I consider you as
my other brother my best friend too and we
are connected by blood now which means
we're always going to be in each other's
cases and throats. I'm sorry bro " we hug it
out

Me:" you fucken ass I don't need this stress.

I need to be focusing on my wife and kid
not this bullshit!. "

Him:" fuck I know okay lets deal with buhle

but we can't kill her "

Me:" I know " I sigh

Him:" we need to teach her a lesson "

Me:" maybe she's doing this because she

wants a reaction from me from us ".
Him:" clearly. let me go get her she's
sleeping "

This bitch wants me to die of stress before I

even see my kids and play with them. I sit
down and close my eyes and think of my
beautiful and pregnant wife. She said yes
her brother said yes and her father said yes
so yes she is my wife. I just need to
propose and give her a ring not a big one
because luh is not flashy like look at me I
have money. I love that but it doesn't mean
that I won't give her my money because I
do and I want her to use my money and
blow it on whatever makes her happy. I
need to find a ring that fits her like a queen
she is.

Sicelo:" she has locked herself in the

bathroom and refuses to come out "
Me:" and you couldn't kick the door open?
dude what's wrong with you ? "

Him:" I'll tell you later lets get this bitch "

We head upstairs and honestly I don't know

what's going on with scelo because his
mind is not here. I need to talk with him and
find out what's bothering him. We get in the
bathroom and it looks like a mess like it
hasn't been cleaned in weeks. I try to open
the bathroom door but it's locked. I wonder
what she's doing there she better not try to
kill herself.

Me:" nobuhle open the door " I ask her

knocking and talking calm and not the way
she expected.

Her:" I'm in the loo mbuso what do you

want? "
Me:" to talk nobuhle. I have a message for
you from luh " it's a lie

Her:" what did she say? "

Me:" you should read it for yourself open

the door "

Her:" I hope you're not lying to me "

Me:" I'm not lying. open the door nobuhle "

I see the door handle turning and it clicks

open then it slowly opens and she peeks
looking at us. This bitch is fucking
exhausting me seriously.

Me:" come out and sit on the bed " she

looks at us suspiciously then comes out
and sits on the bed.

Her:" what's going on

Sponsored
looking at us. This bitch is fucking
exhausting me seriously.

Me:" come out and sit on the bed " she

looks at us suspiciously then comes out
and sits on the bed.

Her:" what's going on why are you here? "

Me:" you sent for me. You told sicelo that

there's something you want to confess to
me and so I'm here to hear what you have
to say "

Her:" I didn't talk to him and what did I say

that involves you? "

Me:" so he's lying you didn't say anything? "

Her:" I never said anything to him " she

looks down

Sicelo:" you're calling me a lier buhle? "

Her:" I didn't say that "

Me:" ok lets stop this bullshit. sicelo call

celeste here now " I take out my gun and
point it to her head he leaves.

Her:" what the fuck did you want to say to

me ? "

Her:" nothing I swear "

Me:" you have five minutes to talk or else

I'm blowing your brains off " Celeste comes
in with mbuso looking like she had a rough
night.

Her:" why are you waking me? "

Me:" what did thid bitch say to you when

she was high? "
Her:" oh that let me get my phone I
recorded her " she leaves and I look at
buhle and she looks freaked out then
celeste comes back and then plays the
vioce note.

Voicenote:" you know celeste....mbuso was

suppose to be mine I'm suppose to be living
the life that buhle is living now comfortable
and rich. ( she laughs loud ) Let me tell you
a secret....that is going to stay between us (
celeste agrees ) I once did something and
that something led me to be pregnant with
mbuso's baby ( celeste asks buhle shocked
where's the baby but buhle doesn't answer
her and continues to laugh and keeps on
asking her but buhle continues to laugh like
she's mad ).

I close my eyes and try to remember when

did I ever fuck her raw but I can't remember
because I never did. I only fucked her 3
times when it was just us with protection but
the other times even when I fucked her with
other people I always used protection. I
open my eyes and look at her and she's
literally shaking. I switch the safety gun
from off to on and get close to her.

Me:" Buhle I'm going to ask you two

questions and you better think carefully
about your answers and if you value your
life and still want to live you will answer me
truthfully or I swear to God I'm going to kill
you this time. Do you understand me ? "
she nods.

Me:" Celeste go prepare buhle a bath just

water and don't add anything " she nods
and goes to the bathroom.

Me:" Buhle have I ever fucked you without a

condon knowingy? " she shakes her head

Me:" words I want you to say the damn

words! "
Her:" No. you always used a condom " .

Me:" have I ever fucked you without a

condon unknowingly? " she looks at me and
crocodile tears fall of her face and she
doesn't answer me

Me:" bitch talk I don't have a whole fucken

day! "

Her:" Yes you did " I feel my blood get cold

and I almost stop breathing....

Me:" how?.....how did that fucken happen!?

" she starts crying loud then scelo looks like
he wants to come and slap her but I shake
my head no.

Me:" you want me to kill you buhle? "

Her:" No "
Me:" then fucken tell me how did I fuck you
raw while I was not aware? "

Her:" It was the last time you were at that

club. I don't know what you were stressed
about but you were drinking heavily then
mike came and he asked you if you wanted
to join us and you said no so you asked for
another drink and I got an idea to drug just
to feel you skin on skin. I drugged you with
a date rape drug and mike was there and
knew what was going on then I... I helped
myself with you "

The whole time she's talking I'm thinking of

one thousand ways to kill her. She drugged
me then...she fuck. I stand up and go stand
next to the window and look outside hands
in my pocket.

Me:" continue buhle "

Her:" after I was done mike helped me get
you home and no one was suspicious
because you know the club is secretive and
they have seen us together many times
even frank wasn't suprised because you
came alone in the club. Then after a few
weeks I realised that I was pregnant and
you were the only one I had slept... I mean
did it without protection and I didn't know
how to tell you because maybe you will
figure it out what happend ".

Me:" where is the child buhle? " I turn and

look at her still standingb there.

Her:" I did a back door abortion so there

wont be any paper trail. I had a child with
you and we couldn't raise it together
mbusowe had a chance to have our own
family and be happy "

I look at buhle livid and ask myself what

kind of twisted messed up person is she.
She....she drugged me then thought we
were going to be happy? what the fuck is
wrong with this bitch!. I cast my eyes to
scelo and he looks shocked and celeste
too. I take off my t-shirt that I'm wearing and
throw it on the floor and buhle looks at me
shocked.

Me:" you might want to help me with what

I'm about to do next. take off your t-shirt "

Sicelo:" you don't have to ask me twice "

Buhle:" what...what are you going to do to

me? you are going to rape aren't you? "

Sicelo:" you twisted bitch no one is going to

fucken rape you. You're the rapist here " we
both drag her to the bathroom kicking and
screaming

Me:" lets get her inside the bath "

Sicelo:" we are drowning you bitch. you are
dying today "

We get her inside the bath still kicking and

screaming and the water is cold and I hold
her head and push it in the water and scelo
holds her legs down then celeste gets in the
bath and sits on her stomach and she
keeps on struggling until......
CHAPTER 20.
SICELO.

We are in the living now and all our clothes

are wet from drowning buhle. I look at
mbuso and he looks exhausted and deep in
thought. What buhle said and did is really
messed up and I think....no I know it really
fucked mbuso up. He looks deep in thought
like he's not even here and I'm worried
about him because finding out that
someone raped you got pregnant for you
and then aborted your baby......man that's
some fucked up shit and I still ask myself
why didn't mbuso let us drown this bitch.

Me:" bro ? are you okay ? " he looks at me

and he looks like shit like he has no idea
what the hell is going on. Celeste looks
shaken too and keeps starring at mbuso
and shakes her head.

Mbuso:" I'm fine. I just need so see luh then

I'll be fine....I know " I don't believe him.

Me:" do you want to talk about it ? "

Him:" I don't!. I wish I didn't promise luh that

I won't kill buhle because that bitch would
be dead by now! " he throws a glass of
whiskey that he was drinking on the wall
and it breaks into pieces.

Me:" Look bro I know what she did shook

and scared you... "
Mbuso:" don't you dare talk to me like I'm a
victim. Maybe this karma finally getting
back to me for what I have done to luh "

Me:" mbuso! don't say that! that bitch

fucken raped you! "

Mbuso throws the decadent full of whiskey

on my direction and I duck. He is shaken
and very pissed and I don't blame him for
what he's doing but if I was in his shoes
buhle would be dead by now promise or
not. Celeste screams and runs out of the
living room then it's just me and him.

Me:" calm down bro luh could call at any

minute then feel or sense that you're not
okay what do you think that will do to her? .
I know we are all shocked with what buhle
confessed and I can't imagine what you're
going through but you need to not let this
get you mbuso. I know you made a promise
to luh but sometimes promises are meant to
be broken bro and if you can't kill her I'll
glady kill her myself because I didn't make
any promise to her "

Him:" you can kill her because she'll think

it's me who put you up to do that and I don't
want you fight with your sister or cause
problems "

Me:" then what do you want me to do? "

Him:" just give me keys to your house... I

want to rest and change some clothes then
talk to my baby "

Me:" what are we going to do with buhle? "

Him:" You remember I told you I was selling

her and then I changed my mind? well she's
leaving tonight. I'm going to call the guys
that i promised to sell her to to come and
get her "
Me:" about damn time. Lets go I'll drive we'll
shower get some food and then get fucken
waisted "

Him:" lets go and I'll call my guys on the

way "

Me:" celeste? we'll be back later " I shout

for her to hear

Her:" okay " then we get up and leave but a

call comes through on my phone .

Me:" Sbusiso ? "

Sbusiso:" man listen you remember one of

my bouncers Mark ? "

Me:" yeah the one I asked to take those

girls home ? "

Him:'" yes him well I was here at the club

and he just got a call from his girl telling him
that they need help with one of the girls..." I
interupt him

Me:" which girl and what happend? "

Him:" the girl you checking out last night the

one you showed me "

Me:" bafo just tell me what happend " (

brother ) mbuso looks at me funny

Him:" he got a call from this chick he

usaully fucks asking for help and said her
friend is dying because her boyfriend is
beating her up " what the hell?

Me:" are you sure it's about the chick I

showed you? what's her name? "

Him:" man he showed me her picture and

it's her her name is Ayanda Maseko. I'm
sending you marks girl address go there
and you'll find them and where your girl is ".
Me:" okay send me her picture aswell.
Thanks bro " I hang up and sigh

Mbuso:" what's wrong bro? "

Me:" there's this girl that I saw in the club I

was at last nght she was with her friends
and I couldn't keep my eyes away from her.
I told sbu about it and showed her and now
he tells me that one of his bouncers
girlfriend is friends with that girl I saw last
night and now that same girl I like has a
boyfriend and apparently he's beating her
up "

Mbuso:" you want us to go there? "

Me:" No he sent me the address.. I'll go

alone. Just go to my house and I'll find you
there. You need some time to process
everything this bitch said but what I need
you to do is to find out everything about
Ayanda Maseko everything bro no stone
left unturned ".

Him:" I'll do that but are you sure you want

to involve yourself in that kind of situation? "

Me:" I don't know bro but I feel something

for her and I can't let it go and not get to
know her. If this is how I'm going to meet
her and know her then I'm okay with it "

Him:" ok I'll check her out after I call luh and

when I'm done showering " I give him my
keys and then run out of the house and get
in my car put in the address on my GPS
then drive out like a maniac.

I get to where they live and It's an okay flat

but I hate it because it looks like junkies
and criminals live here in this
neighbourhood. I stop and park my car
when I see Mark and two girls...yes the
one's who looked drunk in the club are now
running to get in the car. I get out of the car
and run to mark.

Me:" Mark where's ayanda? "

Somelady:" who are you? " I ignore her

she's short and looks like a teenager.

Mark:" boss you know her? " I nod

Mark:" I'm driving there now. Follow my car

" I run to mine and drive behind them.

AYANDA.

I don't know if they heard me and what I

said but I hope they did. I want to close my
eyes and sleep but I'm scared that I won't
ever open them up again if I try to. I hear
police and ambulance sirens then footsteps
of people running and then the door gets
kicked open and I hear their gut renching
cries it's karabo and lilly. They cut deep
because I did that to me to us and I hope
they'll forgive me someday.

Lilly:" Ayanda? awake up ayanda it's us "

she says shaking me

Me:" I'm sorry so sorry forgive me" they cry

Karabo:" Noo aya no it's not your fault" lindi

says and I close my eyes and they inject
something on my arm

"You have to hurry she's losing

conciousness she's going to die damnit" its
a man's voice that says that and it's the last
thing I hear before I blackout
I can hear people talking but I can make out
what they are saying or who they are. I try
to open my eyes but they won't open I try to
get up cause I know I'm in bed but I can't do
that too because I know I'm in the hospital
and I still remember what happend what
tshepo did.
I must have made a sound cause I can hear
someone calling a nurse. I open my eyes
and its super bright "please close the
blinds" my mouth feels like has been stuffed
full with cotton. The person closes the
blinds.

"You can open them" I open them and see

a man standing there he gives me a glass
of water to drink and Ido and then I look
closely at him because I think I know him
and it's tshepo's best friend prince and I
panick.

Me:" What are you doing here?....where is

he?...oh my God he sent you to kill me
didn't he?" he tries to touch my hand but I
scream

Me:" Nurse! nurse!....somebody help me"

Him:" come down ayanda

Sponsored
I came to see how you're doing" I don't
answer him and keep screaming then a
nurse and a doctor get in followed by lilly
and karabo running.

Me:" I don't want him here get him away

from me" screaming

Karabo:" who told you what room she's

in?...go before I call the cops on you"

Prince:" I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare her

I was just worried about her...he's worried
too " . Oh God he sent him the machines
start beeping loudy and I hear everyone
screaming then they are pushed out of the
room and they inject me with something
andit makes me feel good like I'm high and
flouting ...I fall asleep.

I'm dreaming about someone touching my

hair massaging my sculp and it feels so
good and I turn my face to the hand that
does that and press my face on it. This
dreams happens for the next 3 days or
more I lost keeping track after the first 3
days. Whenever I would feel those fingers I
would try to open my eyes to see who's
doing that but they wouldn't open.

It's really dark when I open my eyes and

see that I'm still in the hospital. I look at the
clock above the door and see it's 2am. I felt
those hands before I became awake up just
now. My body has goosebumps all over
and this feeling of someone watching me is
there very intense like the person is in the
same room as me. I look around and see a
figure at the corner sitting down like they've
been watching me this whole time and
funny enough that brings me comfort.

Me:" Who are you? " I ask him yes it's a

man I can make out the silhouhete
Him:" You not scared " it's a statement not
a question.

Me:" I don't know why I'm not...can I have a

glass of water " he stands up and I see that
he's tall and he's wearing black clothes
jeans I think or chinos and a long sleeve t-
shirt. He gives me the glass and I try to look
at his face but I can't see it it's like he
doesn't want me to see it.

Me:" you didn't tell me who you are " he

goes to sit where he was sitting

Him:" yes I didnt" he leans forward and I

can see that he has a beard that's all I see.

Me:" why are you here? " I ask him

Him:" I wanted to see if you're okay " he

says huh?

Me:" why? you dont know me " he shrugs

Him:" I do know you but you don't know me
" how?

Me:"have we ever met before somewhere?

" he scratches his beard

Him:" we did but you didn't see me....or

rather notice me " what? I'm confused.

Me:" okay....is it you that has been

massaging my head? "

Him:"maybe did you enjoy it? " he says.

Me:" I did I think why won't you let me see

you? "

Him:" beacause I like it this way. I see you

and you don't see me"
Me:" you sound creepy like a stalker....did
he send you too? " he doesn't say anything
for a while and that makes me think he did.

Him:" You mean your boyfriend? no. " he

says

Me:" he's not my boyfriend anymore " I face

the other way from him.

Him:" I'm sorry he did that. You don't

deserve to be treated like that. and you'll
never be treated like that."

Me:" what do you want from me?....did he

owe you something and now your here to
collect from me? "

Him:" he doesn't owe me anything "

Me:" please leave I want to be alone ". He

stands up not saying anything and opens
the door but before he leaves he turns and
looks at me

Him:" I'ts going to be a pleasure knowing

you Ayanda Maseko. I'll tell the nurse
you're awake and someone will come to
bring you food. Good night Aya ". He closes
the door behind him and leaves. True to his
word the nurse comes checks on me and
tells me the doctor will be here in the
morning and another nurse comes in with
food a while later says some guy was
asked to deliver this to me.

I check it and see its a chicken noodle soup

still hot and fresh bread....at this time where
did he buy the food? I eat and finish the
whole thing grateful to the guy. The nurse
comes again and helps me showering since
I insisted cause I felt really dirty and sticky.
When I get to the shower and see my face
and my badly bruised body i weep blaming
myself for allowing this to happen to me.
The nurse doesn't say anything but I can
just tell she feels sorry for me. I wear clean
silk pyjamas and they look new and very
expensive. I karabo and lilly bought them to
make me feel better I think and I'm grateful.
I ask the nurse to call them in the morning
and tell them that I'm awake.

Karabo:" Ayanda? are you're awake? " she

says and I smile before I open my eyes and
when I do she looks like a mess..when did I
fall asleep?

Me:" and I thought I looked like shit " we

chuckle but then she starts crying and I pull
her to me and comfort her. I let her cry it out
until she's done.

Me:" I'm sorry...I really am karabo you told

me not go go alone and I didn't
listen...please forgive me.
Her:" you know I forgive you and what
tshepo did to you is not your fault ".

Me:" you look so ugly yoh when was the

last time you bathed? " she laughs and I
feel a little bit better

Her:"nyou should see lilly how are you

feeling though? " she asks

Me:" my body hurts and in pain but it's

much better than the first time I woke up "

Karabo:" you are one of the strongest

people I know and you'll be fine." I nod

Me:" where is he?" I ask her

Her:" we don't know where he is. The police

have been looking for him ever since it
seems he's just vanished....what happend
aya? "
Me:" not now karabo please sis. Where's
lilly? "

Her:" she didn't sleep at her place...I've

been staying there ever since that night
and.... I think she's back to drinking
everyday " oh lilly

Me:"I did this...I pushed her to this "

Her:" it's not your fault...none of this is your

fault ”.

Me:“ she’s drinking and you know what

happens when she does that ”

Her:“ she can’t keep numbing her pain by

drinking. she must talk to us...not drink like
this ”

Me:“ what day is this?”

Her:“ it's wednesday...why? ” she asks me

Me:“ how long have I been here?” she looks
at me like I’ve lost my mind

Her:“ I’ts a month now you...you don’t

remeber?”

Me:“ no I don’t... I can’t remember?...”

there’s a knock on the door and a doctor
gets in followed by the police.

Doctor:“ Miss Maseko I'm doctor Skhondo

your doctor and the police here have some
few questions for you but after I have
examined you. can you all please excuse
us" the doctor says to the police and karabo

Me:" My sister can stay " he nods then

stays. He examines me with a nurse and
starts writing things down when he asks me
how i'm feeling headaches chest pain and
all that.
Doctor:" well miss maseko you're doing
better than I had hoped and your ribs are
healing. Three of them were broken and the
swelling on your head has gone dowm.
What happend to you is vey unfortunate
and There's no head trauma thankfully or
any swelling on your brain but if you feel
any dizzyness or headaches you have to let
me know immediately"

Me:" I only felt dizzy when I stood up to go

to the bathroom but the nurse was there to
help me it was for a few minutes. So there's
no permanent damage?" I ask him

Doctor:" we did the brain scans and so far

everything seems good. Do you remember
everything that happend and how you got
here?"

Me:" I do remember doc" I tell him

Doctor:" Miss maseko I don't know how to
say this but you're very lucky you survived
cause domestic victims like yourself most of
the time end up dead and sometimes
paralysed. I would suggest you see the
hospital psychologist to talk about what
happend. you need therapy miss maseko
and from the time you came here until now
I've been examining you and the results
from the ex-ray machine shows that your
ribs have been broken before". He looks at
me expecting an answer or something and I
just shrug my shoulders

Karabo:" she'll see the psychologist doc Ill

make sure of that " karabo says and the
police knock and get in.

Police:" Doctor we also have some

questions to ask you don't leave the
hospital " the doctor nods
Me:" When am I getting discharged?" I ask
him

Doctor:" tomorrow you'll be discharged but

you'll spend the night for more observation "

Me:" ok doctor ". I look at the two male

detectives they look like they are in their
late thirties or early forties.

"Miss maseko i'm detective Tshabalala and

lona u dectective Shongwe" I nod

Tshabalala:" We have some questions for

you. do you know who attacked you? "

Me:" yes my ex boyfriend Tshepo Moloi" I

tell them

Him:" What happend miss maseko?" I tell

them everything from us going out on friday
and going to my place finding him there and
going to his place and detective Shongwe
nods and writes down

Ttshabalala:" he wasn't mad when you

found him at your place"

Me:" no he wasn't I thinke he pretend to not

be upset "

Him:" then you guys had sex right? " I'm

ashamed and I look down and karabo holds
my hand.

Me:" yes we did "

Him:" so your intention was to break up with

him but you ended up sleeping with him
miss maseko did he force you to? "

Me:"Iwhen i tried to break up with him he

didn't want to hear me say it cause he could
tell so he said we'll talk when we wake up
and after we've had dinner " I tell them
Him:" so you never said no to sleeping with
him? "

Me:" no "

Shongwe:" you sleep with him then you go

out and order and he says what?"

Karabo:" detective she already told you

what happend so why do you want her to
relive that? " karabo asks then getting angry

Shongwe:" miss we're just doing our jobs

we have to be sure."

Me:" he said there was something he

quickly had to do. I refused to get inside his
house but he dragged me there and the
moment he closed the door he hit me."

Him:" and you didn't scream outside so the

neighbors can hear you?" shongwe asks
Me:" They've heard me before asking for
help and nothing has been done and so i
knew screaming for help me in anyway"

Him:" and then what? "

Me:" he hit me with his fists kicked me with

his shoes and then used a belt. I passed
out and woke up at the shower naked then
he took me to his bed and raped me....then
when he left to seehis other girlfriend I
crawled to the dining room to look for my
phone and phoned my sisters and then I
woke up here " I don't tell them about my
mystery man. Karabo has been giving me
comfort and silently listening.

Tshabalala:" Well miss maseko your ex

boyfriend is missing we don't know where
he is butnwe found your car burnt to ashes
just outside witbank on the way to pretoria."
what? what was he doing there but I know I
told him I'm originally from there but he
doesn't know anyone there. It doesn't make
sense and that devil how dare he burn my
car.

Me:" I hope you find him" I tell them

Him:" we will. We have opened a case of

attempted murder rape domestic violence
and car theft. a rape kit was taken and
there's very strong evidence agaisnt him so
he'll be facing all those charges."

Me:" thank you"

Tshabalala:" we'll be in contact...and here's

our cards anytime you hear anything from
him please call us."

Me:" I will detective." they nod and leave

Doctor:" I'm giving you 5 minutes then you

need to leave" doctor says to karabo
Her:" ok doc " the doctor leaves and it's just
the two of us.

Her:" I'm sorry he did that to you but he's

gonna pay one day sis "

Me:" I doubt the police won't find him

karabo..he's very resourceful"

Her:" if the police don't I think that man who

was worried about you will ".

Me:" what man karabo? " deep down I'm

praying it's my mystery man

Her:" apparently he's the man that paid our

bill in the club and got mark to take us
home. He did all of that because he is
interested in you " what?...he was in the
club? is that why I didn't see him and he
saw me...wow.
Me:" I'm tired sis come get me tomorrow.
Go home and get some rest too and tell lilly
I love her "

Her:" I will if she comes home. I love you"

Me:" I love you too sis " she kisses my

forehead and leaves.

I stay awake for hours hoping my stranger

will show up but he doesn't and I start to
think maybe I imagined this whole thing that
there was no man massaging my head or
talking to me. Maybe it was all those pills
they gave me but deep down I know he is
real and I want to see him agaim.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 20.

That smell....I know that smell and I know

those hands that are massaging my scalp. I
love how he touches my hair because it
makes me feel something I have never felt
before. I smile and open my eyes and see
him starring at me. It's dark why does he
like to visit me when it's dark?. He smells so
good like fresh mint and water and I just
want to rub myself all over him so I can
smell like him too.

Me:" I want to see you " nope I wanted to

say hello not that.

Him:" but you can see me " he stops

touching my hair and moves off the bed to
go stand in the window facing me so the
outside light shadows his face.

Me:" I want to see you in the light not like

this dark "

Him:" why do you want to see me? "

Me:" I want to see what you look like "

Him:" I'm afraid if you see me you'll never
want me to be close to you " huh ?

Me:" what does that mean are you not a

human " he chuckles God his laugh is sexy

Him:" I am human but I'm ugly and a

beautiful woman like you deserves to be
with a man who will compliment her not
shame her " what is he afraid of...maybe he
doesn't have an eye or has a nasty scar on
his face.

Me:" I don't care because I want to see you

and your ugly self " I giggle what am I doing
?

Him:" are you sure? "

Me:" Yes I am "

Him:" you'll still like me after you see what I

look like? "
Me:" I didn't say I like you " I blush

Him:" you are talking with a man you have

never met and seen but you're talking with
him like you've known him for a while and
you're even blushing now. Doesn't that
looks like you like me....even a tiny bit " I
giggle this guy

Me:" I'm just being nice because I'm a nice

person "

Him:" hmmm don't say I didn't warn you

when you see me and then run out of here
like a crazy person is chasing you " I can't
help it but laugh. Maybe he is ugly and has
tattoes all over his face my God!.

Me:" what's your name before I see your

face? "
Him:" I'm Sicelo Ngcobo. Hello Ayanda
Maseko " he says and switches the lights
on and OH MY GOD!.

This man is all sorts of gorgeousness

wrapped in one. He's tall and well built not
too musculine but damn I can see muscles
beneath that tailored suit he's wearing and
it fits him perfectly. He has caramel skin
has full pink lips that make you want to run
your tongue on them suckling like your life
depends on it and that we'll trimmed beard.

My head would reach his chest if I were to

stand next to him and I'm medium height. I
wonder how many women fall for him. I look
at his fingers looking for a ring but find
none. He might be married but not wear a
ring men nowadays do that and that
thought makes me feel a certain way.

I can see myself laying on top of him and

he won't mind because he looks like he can
even carry my 36 size and there is nothing
ugly about this man nothing at all. There is
absolutely no way this man is single. I
refuse to believe he is single and he is here
maybe because he's interested in me? Hell
no! No way!.

Him:" are you okay " I nod

Me:" yes I'm okay "

Him:" You look flustured" oh can the ground

open up and swallow me.

Me:" there's nothing ugly about you. You

are a very handsome man and I'm confused
as to why are you really here with me? "

Him:" I like you "

Me:" You don't know me? "

Him:" I know that I saw you in the club you
were at with your friends and I couldn't take
my eyes off of you. I paid your bill asked
mark to take you home so I can sleep well
knowing your safe then I get a call from my
brother and he tells me that marks girlfriend
is asking for help because her friend is
being beaten by her boyfriend. I got so
scared and drove to lilly's place and I found
them in time and I followed them to your
boyfriends place and we found you....."

Me:" it was your voice that I heard before I

lost consciousness "

Him:" it was I thought you were going to die

before I even got a chance to get to know
you and I thought God is playing a bad
game on me "

Me:" I'm complicated sicelo you dont need

drama in your life " he comes and sits on
the edge of the bed and takes my hand.
Him:" then get complicated. Give me drama
"

Me:" I don't want you to get hurt because

tshepo knows dangerous people and he will
come after you " he moves his lips like he
wants to smile but doesn't.

Him:" Don't worry about me. Your ex is the

one who should be worried about me. Will
you get complicted with me and give me
drama? " he gives me puppy dog eyes and
I laugh

Me:" Friendship is what I can offer you right

now "

Him:" Ayanda I want to be more than you're

friend and be your only man. I want to make
you smile
Sponsored
make you laugh and make you very happy.
I want to erase everything that fool did to
you "

Me:" What if I....."

Him:" stop with the what ifs I'm not here to

play games with you ayanda. I know what I
want and I always get what I want and I
want you. As time goes I know I'm going to
need you with everything in me. I'm not
trying to convince you to change your mind
no I'm only letting you know where I want to
go with you ".

Me:" I believe you " I breathout.

Him:" I know i'm not the one who hurt you

but please let me take the responsibility to
be the one heals you ". wow no man has
ever said that to me.
Me:" I believe what you're saying and I'll
give you the best of me I know how but I
want us to take things slowly " he smiles
and brings his face close to mine

Him:" thank you and I promise you you'll

never regret this decision. Kiss me " he
says smiling and I look at the time and it's
alomst 5 am.

Me:" I haven't brushed my teeth though "

Him:" I'm going to be kissing you even

when you wake up in the morning with your
morning breath so lets practise now "

Me:" Sicelo " I cover my face and laugh

Him:" please yaya " I laugh then remove my

hands on my face and the he brings his
face close and we..... his phone rings....
Him:‘ Sure…..yes she's
awake…..really?...hmmm....send it all out
tell them whoever gets him first will get
R50k cash. I want him alive ” oh my God I
hope he's not talking about tshepo.

Him:“…yes Iet me know of any

developments.…sure” he cuts the call then
looks me '' You hungry? " he seems tense
now. I wonder what the person who was
calling said to him.

Me:" yes I am but I'd like to shower first "

he presses a button near my bed and a
nurse gets in.

Him:“ she would like to shower there's a

bag in the bathroom with her things ” the
nurse nods comes to help me get off the
bed and my body feels much better "

Him:“ I'm going to get you something to eat

I'll be back ” he says.
Me:" you promise? ” I say then he smiles
gives me the most beautiful smile I have
ever seen I hear the nurse next to me gasp
softly and I don't blame her the man is
gorgeous.

Him:" always " he kisses me softly then

leaves.

Nurse:“ wow I have seen many man in my

life but that man is purely the most
gorgeous thing I have ever seen hmm lets
get you cleaned up ”.

I don't say anything but follow her. She

helps me shower and I dont look at myself
in the mirror because I know I look bad. I
can see bruises on my stomach arms and
legs. He's the one who bought me those
silk pyjamas not karabo and lilly and he
bought new one's today too with sexy lace
underwear and these things are expensive
wow.

I'm done showering then the nurse puts a

new bandage around my stomach then I
wear my underwear and its lace boyshorts
this man seriously lace?. I wear my silk
pyjamas and they feel absolutely amazing
on my skin and its the right size. We leave
the bathroom and he's still isn't back and I
feel a little disappointed but he said he's
going to get me something to eat so he will
be back. When did I get so clingy and
needy? "

The bed has now fresh clean sheets the

nurse leaves then comes back after a few
minutes tells me I have to go do a Ct-Scan.
They wheel me out on my bed they do their
business and bring me back to my room
and when I get there sicelo is there freshly
showed and wearing a jet black suit with a
very crispy white shirt and he didn't button
the 2 buttons from his neck.... wow he looks
good straight out of the forbes Magazine
damn.

Him:“ After you've had you fill looking at me

you might wanna eat ” he says looking at
me amused. I'm embarrassed that he
caught me ogling him and I wasn't even
aware that he was looking at me watching
him. The nurse takes out my food and puts
it on the table and I dig in.

Him:“ you still want more or you're full? ” I

forgot he was even here because I was so
hungry

Me:“ I'm full thank you it was delicious.

Have you seen my phone I have to call
karabo and lilly. The nurse said I might be
discharged today ” he gives it to me

Him:" you still want to go back to your

place? "
Me:" no. I'm gonna stay with karabo "

Him:" don't you think it's not safe because

he might show up at your friends house
because he knows where they live and
knows he'll find you either at lilly's or
karabo's place? "

Me:" karabo will be there I won't be alone "

Him:" Ok I saved my number there and you

will call me when they get you discharged
so I can take you to karabo's place because
you don't have a car anymore "

Me:" ok "

Him:" I have to go to work we'll talk "

Me:" thank you for the clothes. They fit me

perfectly "
Him:" ok yaya " he kisses me and leaves. I
sigh and smile to myself.
CHAPTER 21.
THAMI.

My life is so fucked up right now everything

is just a mess. I haven't been attending my
classes for a while now because of all the
things I've heard about my parents. The
people I love with all their flaws and
everything in me even though they treated
lungi bad but as for me and buhle it wasn't
bad I don't want to lie. I used to think the
reason they treated luh bad was because
our mom had an affair with uncle victor but I
found out it wasn't that. They did
unspeakable disgusting things that make
me sick to my stomach and as much as I
believe luh and what mbuso said I still want
to hear their side of the story.
I fish for my drugs in my pants find them
empty them on the living room table and
make a line using my card and take a note
and sniff them in my nose. I love this feeling
of getting high and always feeling high. I
don't have to use my mind and think of
many things. I take my whiskey and pour
myself a drink open my phone and look at
my photos with luh and I smile. She's
beautiful she has always been beautiful and
now that we're not related will I still look at
her as my sister luh or just lungi?
hmmmmm " I smile to myself

I invite my friends over in the house to chill

and it ends up being a party because many
people show up. We buy more alcohol food
and more drugs and we party the whole
night high and drunk. This is the life to be
living not this fucked up life of discovering
your parents are a bunch of thiefs and
murderes scammers liers and who knows
what else. Are we even their kids or they
also stole us from our real families? they
messed up my life and it led me to use
drugs more.

I am or was an occasional user and I'll only

use when I'm studying for exams to
concerntrate because studying civil
engineering is hard It needs you to be at
your best always and now ever since I
found out what my parents did I started to
use them everyday and now I can't go
without using it more than once. I'm not an
addict I'm controlling the drug the drug is
not controlling me.

I wake up in the morning and the whole

place is trashed and stinks of weed and
there are people who are still sleeping. I
wake all of them up tell them to go then
after I sniff one line and go shower quickly
get done and clean the house make
breakfast and then call my mom's number
for the hundreth and hope that she will
answer her phone this time and it keeps
ringing until I'm about to hang up then she
answers it.

Her:" hello? "

Me:" mama...."

Her:" who are you? " huh?

Me:" what do you mean who am I and why

are you answering the phone like you didn't
recognise my number or voice? "

Her:" oh it's you my boy boy boy " she

sounds like she's scared and can't talk.

Me:" mom what's going on and why are you

not at home because there's no one here? "

Her:" when did you arrive in standerton? "

Me:" yesterday and I slept really worried
and you were'nt answering your phones.
What is going on ? "

Her:" we are on a vacation boy boy and

we'll be back soon " I have out grown that
name but she still uses it

Me:" mom don't lie to me Lungi told me

everything "

Her:" that bitch! she's the one responisble

for all of this!. Don't believe anything she
says you hear me boy boy? "

Me:" I want to hear your side of the story

too mom so I can understand why she's
lying "

Her:" I can't tell you where I am because

your dad will be furious "
Me:" mom I want to help you and dad
anyway I'll be able to. Please tell me where
you are and I'll get in the car and come to
you guys "

Her:" I see what you're doing you want to

tell lungi and that stupid family of hers
where we are ? "

Me:" I'll never do that mom please you are

my parents and I love you. You're my real
blood and I want to help you please you
know I can "

Her:" I don't believe you thami you love that

girl like she's your real sister "

Me:" that's because I didn't know she wasn't

my real sister but now I do and I'm choosing
my family. I want to help you please "
Her:" ok I'll tell you but please don't tell
anyone thami my child you are my only
hope now "

Me:" I promise I wont tell me "

Her:" we are at Newcastle but we are might

leave tonight or tomorrow morning so get
here before 6pm "

Me:" ok give me your address "

Her:" no when you get here call me and I'll

tell you where to meeet me "

Me:" Ok mom " she hangs up and I sigh

shaking my head.

I take the bag I came with and get in the car

and drive to newcastle. I really want to hate
them for the things they did but I can't
because they are my parents. They
deserve to be forgiven and given a second
chance because they are humans and they
mistakes and they are not perfect.

One day you wake up and learn disturbing

things your parents did and then you don't
know how to feel because it doesn't sound
like they are capable of doing all those
things and it's hard for me to believe them
that's why I want to hear from them what
really happend and what is going on.
Mbuso has been leaving me messages and
calling. I blocked his numbers lungi's
numbers simphiwe and uncle victor's
because to me sims and uncle victor
betrayed their family and supported
strangers. So they mean nothing to me at
all. I won't abandon my parents
Sponsored
I'm going to give them the benefit of doubt
and hope for the best and two hours later
I'm in newcastle then call mom.

Her:" you are already here? "

Me:" yes I'm at the mall's parking lot "

Her:" send me your location and I'll be there

and don't get out of the car and lock it thami
"

Me:" ok " that's weird. I send her my loction

then wait for her.

Ten minutes later someone tries to open

my door and I look up and it's some lady I
don't know and she looks beautiful. She
knocks on the window and I just look at her
wondering what the hell she wants.

Her:" open the door thami " what?

Me:" mom? " that's my mom? she knocks

om the window again and I unlock the door
she gets in and I look at her shocked. My
mom looks like someone I don't know and if
I were to see her walking somewhere I
wouldn't be able to tell its her.

Me:" what did you do to yourself? "

Her:" I had no choice thami my past is

catching up with me " she starts crying and
I hug her.

Me:" don't cry mom I'm here now "

Her:" it's not okay everything is just a mess.

Things were not suppose to be like this.
This is not the life I wanted for myself thami
I swear " she cries again and I just hold her.

Me:" mom let's get out of here where do

you live "

Her:" here in town lets go I'll direct you " I

look at my mom still shocked. Whoever did
her cosmetic surgery did everything to
make them unrecognisable new nose full
cheecks eyes her ears....whole face and
body and she now looks like a stranger but
my mom. She directs me and we go to
some almost warn down houses a place
where poor white people live and we stop
outside some house. We get out of the car
and get in the house and I'm shocked that
my parents live like this they live in the
slums...wow this I never thought I will see
them in this kind of situation knowing how
extravagent they are? It is totally confusing
and crazy.

Me:" you live here? "

Her:" yes we live here " she sits down and

sighs

Me:" but why do you live like this when you

have money to book yourselves into a hotel
mom? "
Her:" we live here because no one will think
of looking for us here "

Me:" no! my parents can't live like this I

refuse "

Her:" shut up and sit down thami when

you're father comes back and sees that
you're here he's going to be mad but don't
worry I'll calm him down then we'll have to
talk then leave this city"

Me:" where is dad? "

Her:" he went to see the guy who helps us

with things we need "

Me:" what is going on mom are all the

things lungi said you and dad did true?. Did
you really kill her mother and set the house
on fire to kill all of them? "
Her:" it's all their fault! we were going to be
happy but she had to ruin it for me she had
to take away the only thing that matterd to
me and I hate her "

Me:" whom are you talking about? is it...... "

Her:" DONT EVER SAY THAT BITCHES

NAME AROUND ME EVER AGAIN YOU
HEAR ME?!!!! " she says screaming so loud
like she's going to lose it "

Me:" yes mom "

Her:" get me a bottle of alcohol there in the

fridge " I go to the fridge and open it and
see six 750ml bottles of black label and I
take one and give it to here and she takes it
uses her teeth to open it and drinks it. My
moms drinks a Ngud (cot ) of black label
beer and I'm so shocked because I have
never seen this side of her and have never
seen her drinking anything other than wine "
Her:" what? why are you looking at me like
that boy boy? " I sit down then look at her.

Me:" mom talk to me please what's going

on? "

Her:" you wouldn't understand. I did what I

did because I had a plan and it was a good
and it was going to work but sipho had to
mess it all up for me and look at me now "
she drinks burps then start to cry.

I have never seen my mother like this. She

looks like some township shebeen woman
and not my sophisticated mother. She looks
like a mess and seeing her like this breaks
my heart. I move and sit next to her and
take her beer and drink it.

Her:" nobuhle " she then laughs

Me:" where is she? "

Her:" she's now a prisoner of mbuso and
the ngcobo's "

Me:" their prisoner just because you all

framed lungi? "

Her:" that and more boy boy "

Me:" what do you mean mom? "

Her:" you know how your sister is like

always wanting to shine and take the centre
stage and to be the only one who gets
attention well she couldn't stand lungi once
she found out that she's not your real
sister..."

Me:" she knew that lungi isn't our sister and

you all kept it from me "

Her:" yes she did and we told her not to tell

you "
Me:" all of you lying and keeping secrets "
she looks at me and laughs

Her:" let me tell you something about your

sister she was working as a prostitute and
would go to some club then one day she
comes home all excited and says to me she
met a very rich man in a club and that man
wants her to be his slave. He'll do anything
and everything in the world for her but only
if she agrees "

Me:" buhle was a prostitute mom and you

and dad knew? "

Her:" yes now let me finish the

conversation. your sister says to the man
she can't because she already has a owner
but she can get him someone else she'll
sell that person to him at a reasonable price
"
Me:" oh my God mom who did she sell? "

Her:" they agree on the price and the man

gives her deposit check of a 1.5 million
rands she takes it and the other remaining
1.5 she will get when she delivers the
person ".

Me:" mom did buhle plan to sell lungi? "

Her:" as she was telling me your dad was

listening to us then he asks buhle who did
she think she was going to sell and buhle
says she was going to sell lungi and your
dad didn't agree he absolutely refused at
first and I had to convince him and then he
finally agreed "

Me:" I cannot believe buhle is into human

trafficking mom...you all are "

Her:" we tell her to arrange a meeting so we

can meet the man first but then your greedy
stupid ass sister steals from mbuso tells us
mbuso won't notice but mbuso finds out
what she did. He finds her and beats your
sister almost to death and then our deal
falls off because buhle was the link that was
going to connect us to that man. We later
find out that the man was killed and we
don't know who did and the last person he
was seen with is buhle and now those
people are aslo after us and we don't know
who they are and they are blackmailing us
and they ... ".

Dad:" what the fuck are doing telling this

boy all these things? " he asks standing at
the door looking so fucken mad.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 21

His voice sounds like him but it doesn't look

like him. He's carrying a heavy bag and he
sets it down looks my mom fuming then he
looks at me and I know he's not happy with
me being here but I don't care. They are my
parents and I will help them where I can.

Dad:" what the hell are you doing here

thami? "

Me:" I came to see you dad and I was

worried about you you and mom both have
some explaining to do to me "

Him:" I am your father not your child that

needs to explain anything to you! " he says
angrily

Me:" so it is true the things lungi told me are

all true? "

Him:" look at how stupid you look right now.

You're high and getting drunk with your
mother and you come here uninvited who
told you where we are? "
Mom:" so much drama come down sipho
and I'm the one who told him where we are.
I miss my kids ".

Me:" I want to help dad anyway that I can

be of help you that is why I'm here "

Him:" what did your mom tell you " he sits

down

Me:" that there are people looking for you

other than lungi's family. Did you do the
things lungi told me about her family....did
you kill her mother mom and dad you
wanted uncle victor to burn all of them in
the house? "

Him:" Your mom is one the one who told

me about them and how rich they are.
She's always been a jealous of her best
friend and she's a greedy bitch too always
wants everything to be about her she's
even jealous of buhle her own child "
Mom:" don't talk about buhle like that! "

Me:" my mom is not a bitch dad she's a

beautiful wonderful and very classy woman
" he looks at my mom and then me then
laughs rreally loud.

Him:" Your mom is a prostitude like your

sister always has and always will be. When
I met her she was the lady of the night and
studying at the same time ".

Me:" never! don't talk about her like that you

miserable prick " I stand up to go and punch
my dad but my mother blocks me and
pushes me back to sit back again on the
couch.

Mom:" thami don't talk to your father like

that! sipho why did you tell him that? "
Him:" because he deserves to know what
this family is really like "

Me:" mom is it true? "

Mom:" yes okay! every fucken thing that

bitch said is true okay. I killed that whore of
her mother and I wanted to kill those kids
too especially that lungi who looks like her "

Me:" no mom! no!. You are not a killer...why

would you kill her though why? "

Dad:" because she's a killer and it runs in

her blood she's all of it Prostitute scammer
thief lier worst mother and don't tell me
about being a wife because she is
worthless. She seduces men sleeps with
them and when they fall for her she scams
them ". my dad says all of these shocking
thing to me.
Mom:" where were you all these times I was
doing all those things because you were
there! you were with me encouraging me
and doing the same things. Don't pretend
as if your innocent in all of this because you
are not sipho!"

Him:" You did all of that because you love

me and you'll do anything to make me
happy. I never held a gun to your head and
forced you to do anything "

Mom:" You are the one who came up with

everything I'm in all of this mess because of
you I'm running away because of you. Ever
since I met you my life has been nothing
but a nightmare "

Dad:" I didn't force you to stay if you were

living a nightmare and so miserable why did
you never leave me? why did you stay and
continue to prove your love for me ? "
Mom:" I'm still here because I love you and
I'll do anything for your love. I don't regret
my life with you because I'll give anything to
make you happy "she stands up and
stagers her way to my dad and sits on his
lap.

Dad:" I also do everything for you and I

make you happy too so why are you
blaming me for the choices we both took
and agreed on? "

Mom:" I'm tired of this life sipho I want us to

stop. Our past is catching up on us and
they already have buhle and It's only a
matter of time before they find us too "

Dad:" It's too late to stop now wife the

ngcobo's are after us and that man's family
that was killed which is why I went to meet
mike to get our passports. We are leaving
the country tomorrow morning "
I may be still high and drunk but I feel sick
to my stomach listening to my parents talk. I
can't believe these are the people that
raised us the one's I looked up to and
wanted to be like them when I'm married.
They were just going to leave the country
and forget about us? what kind of parents
are these?. My heart feels heavy and it
sobers me a little.

Me:" so you're leaving the country and you

were not going to tell me? "

Mom:" it's not like you're still a child thami.

You are a man now and you can take care
of yourself " she says like my question
annoyed her

Me:" I'm still a child mom I'm 21 not 31.

How am I going to survive without you? "
Mom:" mbuso paid for your fees and an
apartment so you just need to get a job and
fend for yourself "

Dad:" grow up thami and stop hiding behind

your mother's skirt. At your age I was
already working and had my own two room
house because I didn't want any hand
downs like you "

Me:" you're my parents and you must take

care of me not mbuso. He did that because
you stopped paying for my fees and
sending me money and he also did that
because I was lungi's brother "

Mom:" you were never that bitches

brother...Ever! "

Me:" and what about buhle? you were going

to leave without finding her and making
sure she's okay how could you? "
Mom:" your sister has been in this game for
too long she's smart and she'll find a way to
escape. She knew how dangerous it is and
what she's getting herself into "

Me:" she didn't ask you to make her what

she is today!!!! she was just a child and you
made her do all your criminal activities and
other sick things what kind of parents are
you? "

Mom:" the one's who love you and are now

protecting you boy boy by runnung away "

Me:" when has running away been answer

mom? isn't a mother suppose to put her
children first even before her husband? "

Mom:" I met your dad first before you he's

the only person I have ever loved
unconditionally and to me he'll aways be my
number before you and your sister and that
is never going to change ".
Me:" mom please don't choose this life over
us don't choose dad over you children
please mama I beg you " I beg her crying

Dad:" we love you son but we love us way

too much you'll understand one day "

Me:" no I don't you are doing this because

we are not your kids! if we were your
children you wouldn't leave us and let
people we don't know come after us. They
could kill me because of you and the things
I don't know about! ".

Dad:" if we leave then they will stop coming

after us and you won't be harmed in any
way " I cry

Me:" you'd rather be happy somewhere

without us and you expect me to believe
that you love us? NO!. Who are my real
parents so I can go and look for them?
TELL ME! "

Mom:" come down thami and stop

screaming you are our child "

Me:" what about buhle? is she my sister? "

Mom:" she is your sister but your father is

not her father "

Me:" what? mom!?. Dad did you know? "

Dad:" I know thami and I love your sister "

Me:" does she know that she's not your

daughter? " He looks at my mom and mom
looks...I don't know and I don't like it.

Mom:" she doesn't know "

Me:" who's her father? "

Mom:" I don't know "

Me:" I don't believe you mom. What are you

hiding!? "

Dad:" don't talk to your mother like that

thami "

Me:" I'll talk to you anyway I want. You are

not the people I thought you were you even
changed your looks so people won't
recognise you you were going to leave and
forget about us ".

Mom:" we were going to call you and let

you know that we're safe boy boy "

Me:" you are liers and thiefs and murderes

and I want nothing to do with you you hear
me? You both are dead to me. I would
rather be an orphan than have parents like
you ".
Dad:" you are mad at us and we
understand that you don't mean anything
you're saying right now "

Me:" to think I was going to help you and

God! the things I was thinking of doing
to....to the only person who's ever loved me
unconditionally...how could I betray her like
this? I should have never came here! "

Mom:" thami my son..."

Me:" don't call me that! I hate you...I hate

both of you and I never want to see you
ever again you hear me? " can this pain i'm
feeling stop and I cry

Dad:" son? "

Me:" fuck both of you I'm calling mbuso now

and I'm telling him where you are "

Dad:" I wouldn't try that if I were you "

Me:" I hope to God I never inherited your
sick and twisted mentality. You deserve
everything that is coming your way " I take
my phone out.

Mom:" don't you dare thami! "

Me:" what? what!? you're going to kill me

too ? "

Mom:" maybe we should " my blood runs

cold and I actually believe that she will
shoot me

Dad:" not my son thuli! "

Me:" but my daughter? "

Me:" what does that mean dad? "

Dad:" it means nothing thami. you need to
go back to standerton now! you need to
leave thami! "

Mom:" no! it means something boy boy.

Give me your phone now! "

Me:" no! I'm calling mbuso now " I unlock it

go through my contacts then I hear
someone cocking a gun. I look up and it's
my mother.

Mom:" put the damn phone down now

thami! "

Dad:" thuli give me the gun now! "

Mom:" No! I have sacrificed way too much

to let thami give us to those people sipho
nooooo! I refuse. You know what is going to
happen once they get us " I scroll down
then see mbuso's number and I press on
his contact and then I unblock his number
terrified

Mom:" you son of a bitch! you think I won't

kill you? " She laughs like she's losing her
mind

Dad:" thami will not call them baby I

promise my love. Give me the gun baby
don't shoot our son thuli please! " I stand
there shaking seeing a side of my mother I
have never seen. I look at her and look at
my phone then tap the call button and I see
it dailing and I hold my breath and hope to
God it connects and he answers my call "

Dad:" nooooo! " I hear a gun shot then I feel

pain on my chest and I look down and see
blood coming out I fall and struggle to
breath. I look at my mother and see eyes of
a killer noy my mother. My own mother shot
me she shot me because she wants to kill
me. I hear my dad screaming.
CHAPTER 22.

MBUSO.

I am so mad at myself for letting my gaurd

down around buhle so much that she
thought she can rape me get pregnant by
me then abort the baby...my baby. I don't
know what I could have done had I found
out then before she had an abortion. The
hate I feel for buhle is so deep that killing
her will give me peace of mind knowing
she's dead.

I take my phone and smile looking at my

screen saver luh sleeping peacefully with
my hand on her stomach. Our kids and her
are the only people that matter the most to
me now. I know she might be sleeping so I
send her a message " I love you and I can't
wait to marry your lovely ass " I calm down
then take my laptop and start digging about
Ayanda Maseko then after I'm done I call
my brother.

Him:" Mbuso? "

Me:" where are you ? "

Him:" what's wrong I'm home? "

Me:" come to durban now I'll send you my

location and bring me my clothes "

Him:" I'm coming " he hangs up and I sigh.

Housekeeper:" Sir can I make you

something to eat? " I wonder how scelo
managed to hire a girl as young as her to
be his housekeeper because she looks like
she's lungi's age or something.

Me:" what's your name again? "

Her:" I'm zama sir "

Me:" Can you get me some of scelo's
clothes just sweats and t-shirt and leave
them on the guest bedroom. " I wonder how
far lungi is with getting a house because I
can't stay here with scelo I need my own
house.

Zama:" ok sir " she leaves and I go to the

guest bedroom and take off my clothes and
get in the shower and just let the hot water
hit my tense body but it doesn't help
because the only thing that will come down
is burying myself deep on lungi and I get
hard but I'm not going to jakeoff because it
won't sate me. I switch off the shower and
and dry myself then open the door and see
zama left the clothes on the bed. Sicelo is
almost the same size as me so his clothes
fit. I go down stairs and hear voices in the
kitchen and go there and find scelo with his
housekeeper and there's tension between
them and they stop talking when they see
me and she leaves the kitchen.

Me:" Rule number 1 brother you don't fuck

the house help " he shakes his head.

Him:" how are you feeling and why do my

clothes look better on you? "

Me:" I look better than you that's why "

Him:" says who? "

Me:" you're sister " he takes an apple and

hits me with it

Me:" does taking things and throw them at

people run in the family? "

Him:" she threw something at you? " he

laughs at me
Me:" bro a frying pan food knife man I had
to run ducking out of the house. It was that
message you sent about you wanting us to
tell her the truth "

Him:" serves you right who did she think it's

from? "

Me:" buhle bro " we laugh

Me:" man I love her she can never know

what buhle did "

Him:" I agree so when are your guys

coming? "

Me:" I'm waiting for siyabonga then we'll call

the guys and I want mike there too. I want
him fucked in the ass until he can't move
then I'm selling him too "

Him:" doesn't he have a family anyone

who'll niss him? "
Me:" not that I know of they are my brothers
friends and so I'l ask him "

Him:" that bitch is twisted man I've never

seen a messed up girl like her "

Me:" I worry about luh I worry that she's too

forgiving and maybe she's hiding some of
the things she went through living with
those people and it terrifies me to think
maybe sipho has touched her too. If he did
touch buhle when she was young maybe it
messed her up to be this person she is
today and lungi might be hiding he did to
her too to cover the truama maybe she
went through. I want her to go see a
therapist after she's had our child so she
can deal with everything "

Him:" I was thinking the same thing too.

Lungi is just like our mom soft kind and very
forging and I pray and hope to God that he
never touched her "

Me:" I think she would have told one of us if

he ever did touch her but that thought
refuses to go away from my mind and it's
stressing me the fuck out "

Him:" tell me about it " he sighs deeply

Me:" what happen to the girl you went to

see? "

Him:" that scumbag beat her up again when

she went to break things off with him she
looks bad man but she's gonna make it"

Me:" when are we getting rid of him ? "

Him:" as soon as I find him I asked some of

my guys to look for him 50k to whoever
finds him alive "
Me:" make it 100k it should motivate them
then we'll also sell that bitch with mike "

Him:" Now I feel better I knew there's a

reason why I liked you cause we're the
same mother fucker " we both laugh

Me:" are you serious about her? "

Him:" hell yeah I am and I'm going all in "

Me:" then you need to get rid of zama. She

can't be your housekeeper anymore "

Him:" I know but she knows me and her

we're just fucking "

Me:" don't be stupid scelo women never just

think you're just fucking only. They want
more or you didn't learn from my situation
with buhle? "
Him:" yeah you're right. I'll tell her tonight
before I ask ayanda to move in with me " I
laugh at this fool

Me:" before you do that remember you

asked me to find out information about her
and I did "

Him:" just tell me bro....is it bad ? "

Me:" nothing bad she comes from witbank

she's an only child and was raised by her
grandmother after her parents died then
when her grand's died she moved in with
her uncle in her father's house that she was
kicked out of two years after she finished
her matric. Her dad was working at a mine
and left her some money but uncle her
father made his brother her gurdian so he'll
be able to raise his daughter for him but
brother had other plans and chowed all her
money spending it on his wife and kids.
They left nothing for her and that's when
she came here in durban with her two
friends struggled a few months then she got
a job and started saving money and
registered her bakery business ". this fool
smiles

Him:" hmmm I'm impressed I never

expected that she has a business I thought
she works somewhere. How's the business
going? "

Me:" It's struggling but I'm sure you can

help her grow it since she's gonna be part
of this family "

Him:" yeah I'll help her even if she refuses

my help "

Me:" you got it bad and you haven't even

touched her." I laugh at him

Him:" shut up fool and speaking of her I

have to go and see her again. I hope she
won't press cahrges against him so we'll get
him "

Me:" her car was reported stolen I guess he

took it "

Him:" anything else? "

Me:" that's all brother. Do you have that

recording of buhle? "

Him:" you want it? " he asks me like I'm

crazy

Me:" I do "

Him:" are you sure? "

Me:" I wouldn't be asking if I wasn't sure "

we hear footsteps
Zama:" excuse me sir there's someone
who''s here to see you he's in the living
room " she looks at me

Me:" that must be my brother " scelo follows

me out of the kitchen and it's him

Me:" little brother " he shakes his head

Bonga:" I'm only two years younger than

you fool "
we laugh and hug.

Me:" this is lungi's brother Sicelo Ngcobo

scelo this is my younger brother Siyabonga
Gumede "

Bonga:" Mapholoba "

Sicelo:" that's my dad Mnguni "

Bonga:" Mnguni is my dad too " we all

laugh
Sicelo:" nice meeting you little brother lets
go to my study "

Bonga:" not you too "

Me:" did you just roll your eyes at us? "

Bonga:" I haven't even had anything to eat

in this house and you're already ganging up
on me? "

Sicelo:" that's what big brothers do i'll find

you in my study. I have to talk to my
housekeeper "

Bonga:" that's your housekeeper?....man

you like trouble "

Sicelo:" not you too fool go " he goes to the

kitchen and we go to his study and I por us
whiskey
Bonga:" didn't you ask luh to get you guys a
house? "

Me:" she's still looking I think if she hasn't

forgotten "

Bonga:" what's wrong with you? "

Me:" what you mean? "

Bonga:" mbuso? "

Me:" it's buhle "

Him:" what did this bitch do this time and

why haven't you killed her brother? "

Me:"she's alive because of my promise to

luh okay let's wait for sicelo "

Him:" you are getting soft mbuso meeting

luh has made you soft and I like that very
much but man don't forget who we are "
Me:" I know she brings out the side of me I
never thought I have "

Him:" you are our father's son and you take

after him more than us and you know how
she has him wrapped around her finger and
that's luh to you. You love her like how dad
loves mom you don't want to disappoint her
and I respect that but remember for luh to
be happy at peace and protected buhle
needs to die "

Sicelo:" that's what I've been telling him if

he won't do it I will "

Me:" shut up and play the audio scelo "

Sicelo:" are you sure? "

Me:" if there's anyone I would want this to

hear it's him besides you "
Sicelo:" ok "

He plays the audio and I look at my brother

and he gets pale with every word buhle
says and looks really mad. Siyabonga says
I'm the one who took more from dad but he
doesn't realise that me and him are very
alike in my things and I know deep down he
knows that and that is why I wanted him to
know this because I can't carry it alone.

Bonga:" where is she? "

Me:" with celeste? "

Bonga:" we are selling her to the albanians

"

Me:" mike too and tshepo "

Bonga:" who the fuck is tshepo now " we

tell her about tshepo and ayanda and he
looks at sicelo like he's crazy. " you haven't
even had the pussy and already you want
to move heaven and earth for her? what is
wrong with you two "

Sicelo:" we all need that someone at the

end of the day brother even you "

Bonga:" fuck man I know "

Me:" get mike here and don't tell him why

then get guys who would love to tear his
ass up guys with huge dicks bonga " we
laugh

Bonga:" leave that to me but if we get mike

then paul probably knows what happend
and he too has to be here. I can't believe
we once fucked women with these guys "

Sicelo:" I hope you won't be sharing my

sister with anyone "
Me:" you'll go deaf if you knew half the
things your sister lets me do to her... " he
throws a book at me and I duck " but don't
worry My dick is the only one that will
always make her screem my name "

Sicelo:" fuck you mbuso "

Me:" then don't ask me about what do we

do with your sister. Organise a party then
invite mike and paul the albanians "

Bonga:" consider it done "

Sicelo:" but seriously guys you used to fuck

one woman at the same time? " bonga and
I laugh

Me:" hell no brother I've never had a

threesome some with him but he would be
there watching with mike and paul then
when I'm done they would take over I
always fuck first but there's a guy I used to
have share women with and I stopped
doing that when I started to care for luh and
I stopped cheating on her ".

Sicelo:" I'll kill you if you cheat on her again.

Only men who aren't intimidated by other
men dream about watching their women
while another man fucks her. "

Bonga:" he's my brother and I love him and

I'll kill anyone who thinks of harming him in
anyway including you sicelo but when it
comes to luh I'll help you kill mbuso too " we
all laugh

Me:" I've learnt my lesson and I won't.

Scelo so you're telling me that you've never
fucked two women at the same time or
shared with anyone? ".

Scelo:" fucked two girls at the same time

yes but shared?.... man that's my dream "
Me:" maybe ayanda will let you " we laugh

Scelo:" She won't agree and I can tell "

Bonga:" ask her now as you're getting to

know her "

Me:" are you guys exclusive like you talked

about you're only fucking each other? "

Scelo:" I was going to talk to her about that

tonight "

Me:" I have an idea why don't the both of

you here fuck zama before you fire her and
before you talk to ayanda because if you
talk to her and fuck zama after you are
going to be cheating on her "

Bonga:" who's zama? "

Me:" the housekeeper has a thing for him"

Sicelo:" if zama agrees I'm in one last time
before I commit fully to ayanda what do you
say little brother? "

Bonga:" I'm in "

Sicelo:" Man we're fucked up " we laugh.

My phone rings and I'm expecting to see
my baby's number but I'ts thami? where the
fuck has this born been at.

Me:" guys it's thami " they get silent and I

put it on loud speaker " hello? thami where
are you? " then we hear a gun shot and a
man's voice sceaming 'no' and crying.
Sicelo takes out his phone and dials and I
ran out of the study and go the living room
and track thami's phone and he's in
Newcastle then I hear sipho asking thami's
mother why he shot thami.

Me:" what the fuck is wrong with the

mazibuko women?!!!"
Bonga:" lets go I'll drive to the airport "
sicelo comes in running

Sicelo:" dad says his guys heard the gun

shots and are in there now. They have
them and they called an ambulance its
looking bad for him brother "

Me:" lets go "

We leave the house and I'm worried about

thami but the only person whom I'm really
worried about is luh should thami not make
it why didn't he call me when he got to
newcastle! He's still young to die he has his
whole life ahead of him God don't let him
die please.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 22

MBUSO.
We arrive in Newcastle and go straight to
where the mazibiko's are at and there are
cars many people outside the house who
live in the same street and fuck the police
are here. We get out of the car and some
guy sees us and walks towards us.

Me:" who the fuck called the police!? "

Sicelo:" I know that guy he's a cop don't

worry "

Me:" he's on payroll? "

Sicelo:" dad's pay roll "

CopGuy:" Sicelo " he shakes our hands

Sicelo:"Alex these are my other brothers

Mbuso and Bonga Gumede"

Alex:" bo Phakathwayo " we shake hands

with him
Sicelo:" where are they? "

Alex:" I separated them the woman is in my

car and the man is at another one. Don't
worry about these guys here they are under
me so no one is going to report what
happend here "

Me:" where is the boy that got shot? "

Alex:" It was bad she shot him straight in

his heart and he didn't make it. He died
instantly I'm sorry guys and the paramedics
did what they could but..." the guys curse
and I punch the car window hard and it
breaks into pieces and I am fucked mad.

Me:" show me where they are! " I take me

gun out
Bonga:" calm down brother people are
looking at us and we don't want anyone to
take out their phone and record us "

Me:" don't tell me to calm down! thami was

a good kid and he was always therer for
lungi! how the hell am I going to tell her
this?! "

Sicelo:" this is fucked up and we can't tell

her no matter what! "

Me:" don't you fucken think I don't know

that?! "

Bonga:" where is his body? "

Alex:" It is the hospital then I arranged

someone to take it to the morgue "

Me:" I need you to arrange for his body to

be tranfered to standerton at the best
morgue give bonga your account details
and he'll transfer the money now " I walk to
where thuli and sipho are and scelo follows
me

Sicelo:" don't shoot them mbuso " ignore

him and we see this woman who has
caused so much trouble for everyone. She
looks at me smiles evily then looks at scelo
and is shocked.

Me:" let us in " I tell the guy who's standing

outside the car and he does. We both get in
the backseat where she's sitting handcuffed
and we sandwich her. Whoever did the
surgery must have charged them so much
money.

Her:" wow sicelo you look just like zakes so

handsome my boy " I can feel scelo's anger
building every second and then scelo
punches her hard on her nose and it breaks
she screams histericaly and there's blood
on her face and neck. I look at this woman
and I just want to choke her to death and
feel life leaving her body.

Me:" why. why did you kill him? "

Her:"........."

Sicelo:" for years and years I dreamed

about what I would do when I finally meet
you again and finally here you are. Here we
are. The horrible things I want to do to you
are unimaginable and I can't wait "

Her:" bring them on " and this time it's me

who punches her and knock her out.

Sicelo:" I think you broke her jaw "

Me:" and we still have many bones to break

" we get out of the car and go to sipho's and
he was looking at us the whole time. We
also get in again and he looks like he's
been crying and he's also handcuffed.
Sicelo:" well well well!. Sipho Mazibuko we
meet again last time I saw you you knocked
me out with a gun to burn me in the house
with my whole family "

Sipho:" Voetsek masimbenja bokumele

ngabe nfile nonke! " ( fuck you you piece of
shit! you were all suppose to die! ) I get out
of the car and look for a stone but I see a
brick and take it and get in the car with it.
Bonga gets in the back with scelo

Me:" give me your hands "

Him:" no! " Sicelo and bonga take his hands

and they put them on his lap. I open the
glove compactment and see a dirty cloth
take it and forcefully stuff it in his mouth to
gag him so he will shut the hell up.

Me:" this is not gonna hurt " he starts to

scream but he can't because of the gag.
Me:" make sure he doesn't move and kick
you " they hold him still and I take the brick
and use all my strength and hit his left hand
and he screams tries to fight but he
struggles then I hit the other one again and
I hear the bones of the old man breaking.
He groans in pain and tears fall and bonga
laughs. I knock on the window and motion
for alex to come and he gets in the car

Him:" boza's you need to leave someone

might have alerted my other boss " ( boses
)

Me:" lock the door and help me hold his

legs " he locks it and sipho is strong but not
stronger than us he tries to kick but he's in
so much pain. His legs are streched
between us so we take off his shoes and
socks and I give scelo the brick and he
doesn't think twice and just break his knee
caps then I take the brick again and hit his
feet hard and sipho screams like a cow
being slaughtered with snort coming out of
his nose.

Alex:" remind me to never piss any of you

off "

Me:" be loyal to us then we won't kill you.

We need to go now to ladysmith bonga
bring the car so we'll put this fucker in the
boot and that bitch will sit with us "

Alex:" you can take my car that has the

woman I'll go with you to ladysmith it's not
far I'll come back " bonga leaves to get the
car we rented then we take sipho and put
him in the boot.

Sicelo:" bonga you'll go with Alex and I'll

ride with mbuso "

Me:" Alex? "

Him:" boss? "

Me:" have they moved the body? "

Him:" he's still in the hospital and they are

done I think doing the autopsy "

Me:" Take me to him I want to see him "

Sicelo:" brother we can't what if his boss is

already there? "

Me:" I owe him that much scelo. I want to

see how he looks so when the day I tell
lungi I'll be able to explain to her "

Scelo:" fine but don't take time "

Alex:" there's a doctor I know at the hospital

I'll ask him to give me something that will
knock them until you wank them up "
Me:" I might just hire you to work with frank
and percy lets go " we get in the car and
drive to medi-clinic.

Scelo:" where is frank? "

Me:" he's watching over my wife " we arrive

then alex and I go inside as he leads the
way. we get there and he talks to some
doctor then we leave and they get to the
autopsy room and fuck!
Sponsored
lets go " we get in the car and drive to medi-
clinic.

Scelo:" where is frank? "

Me:" he's watching over my wife " we arrive

then alex and I go inside as he leads the
way. we get there and he talks to some
doctor then we leave and they get to the
autopsy room and fuck! I have never cared
about anyone who's dead who is not my
family but thami was lungi family and he will
always will and it hurts me that luh can't say
goodbye to him so I'll do it for her.

Doctor:" here he is you have five minutes

before they take him to the morgue " I nod
and he removes the white blanket off his
face and I look at him and my chhest
tightens.

Me:" can I close his eyes? "

Him:" yes they are done with the autopsy "

Me:" thank you "

Alex:" boss will give you some privacy " I

nod and they leave and close the door
behind them.

Me:" I didn't know you for long thami but

lungi has because you grew up together
and you both were always there for each
other and loved each other like brother and
sister. I'm sorry you left us like this you
didn't deserve it because you were a great
kid and the best brother to lungi she could
ever think of. I remember when you called
me the next day after we got married and
you threatened to kill me should I mistreat
her in any way and I did treat her bad and I
would like to say I'm sorry to you for hurting
your sister and I hope you give me thami.
She's pregant and we're expecting twins
we're both very ecxcited and I know she
would have loved for you to be there and
play your part as their uncle. I'm sorry both
of can't say goodbye to each other and I
know the day when she finds out its going
to be hard for her but I'll be comforting her.
I'm here to thank you thami for caring for
the woman I love and to say goodbye to
you aswell. I will make sure that your
parents pay for hurting everyone they came
across. May your ancestors and God
welcome you with open arms please watch
over my wife and my kids " I close his eyes
and look up and close my eyes to remove
the tears that are threatening to fall down.

I open the door and leave alex follows me

behind and gives scelo an injection and
they both hold sipho and scelo injects him
and I get in the passenger seat and sit. Alex
goes to his car and they also inject thuli and
they get in the car and we all leave. We are
silent on they way no one is talking

Sicelo:" You okay brother? "

Me:" saying goodbye to that boy was harder

than I thought it was going to be "

Scelo:" I'm thankful that he was always

there for her and we'll give him a proper
goodbye "

Me:" we will. I have to call victor "

Scelo:" dad told him and he'll be there with
his other family waiting for thami and dad is
waiting for us too "

Me:" I need to see luh first "

Scelo:" she'll look at you and just know that

something is wrong bro calm down then
you'll go and see her "

Me:" I don't think I can wait. I need her

scelo. I need her to hold me " I huff out
fustrated a text messege beeps and it's
scelo's phone

Him:" can you read it I'm driving " he says

giving me the phone

Me:" what if it's ayanda or zama and one of

them sent you her nudes man ? "

Him:" of fuck zama might " he reads the text

message
Sicelo:" dad says he will meet us at our
other farm to keep thuli and sipho there
then we'll go to your house "

Me:" fine but after I'm going to luh ".

I call bonga and tell him to follow us and we

finally arrive in ladysmith and we go to the
farm and the livestock they have is crazy
and I know they are going to want real live
cows for lungi not money and a ghost smile
forms on my lips. We find Mapholoba
already there with other men and I can't
read his facial expression.

Us:" Sawubona baba " ( good evening dad)

all four of us greet him

Him:" sons boys take them inside " he says

to the men we found him with and they take
thuli and sipho who are still knocked out
Mapholoba:" Alex I know you're not married
but do you have a little child you live with? "
we look at each other

Alex:" no sir " then mapholoba takes out a

huge stack of cash and gives it to him

Him:" we'll contact you when we need you "

Alex:" thank you sir bosses i'll wait for your

calls and that offer " then he leaves and it's
just us.

Him:" lets drive to your house mbuso "

Me:" yes dad " we drive to my house and

see the house lights are on and I panick

Me:" fuck! lungi is here? "

Mapholoba:" it's me who was here. Lungi is

home " what was this old man doing in my
house scelo and I look at each other. When
the gate opens I get confused as to why my
dad is here?. We get in the house and I see
my dad drinking whiskey and someone
cooked coz it smells really nice and there's
a smell of sage?. then mapholoba joins him
and pours himself a drink. We are so
confused as to what is happening and what
are they doing in my wifes kitchen?.

Us:" Sawubona baba " ( we greet )

Gumede:" bafana bami and I see you've

met my other son Siyabonga " ( my boys )

Mapholoba:" I know all of them come and

shake my hand son and all of you sit down "
bonga shakes his hand then we sit.

Me:" what's going parents? "

Gumede:" I know what has been going on

mbuso and you have to stop doing things
your way boys and hiding them. Your soon
to be father-inlaw here called and told me
what happend today and I wanted to be
here "

Me:" I didn't mean to hide things from you

dad "

Him:" I can't help you if you don't come to

me and ask for help "

Me:" I won't do it again I'm sorry "

Mapholoba:" which is why we have to finally

get rid of the mazibuko's and buhle "

Me:" lungi doesn't want me to kill her "

Gumede:" you don't love uLungile wena " (

you )

Me:" baba how can you say that? you all

know I do! "
Mapholoba:" I'm happy to hear that you
respect my daughters wishes but that girl is
a threat to you and buhle. Kill her mbuso or
i'll do it " my father in-law is giving me
permission to kill someone who is a huge
threat to his daughter and so who am I to
go against that.

Gumede:" she needs to be here with her

parents so we can all finally know what the
hell is going on with them "

Sicelo:" I'll ask celeste and the security to

bring her here before the sun rises "

Them:" good "

Me: with all due respect parents I need to

go and see lungi "

Gumede:" you can't go and see lungi while

your heart is filled with anger and darkness
bonga go get me the sage in the master
bedroom " bonga leaves and comes back
with it and my dad lights it and start talking
then does the same to sbonga and scelo.

Gumede:" go shower then "

Me:" uhm mapholoba baba I don't mean to

be disrespectful but I was asking if I
could..." I humbly ask him brushing me
head

Mapholoba:" go mbuso but don't have sex

with my child under my roof and you better
leave before the sun rises in the morning " I
look at him like what?

Him:" take it or leave it " I go upstairs then I

hear my dad say

Gumede:" you know he's my son and he's

going to do exactly the opposite? "
Mapholoba:" I know that fucker is going to...
but hey then it's gonna be more cows for
me " they laugh and I shake my head and
go shower quickly and change. I go
downstairs and find them eating and my
mouth waters but I want to see my babies
first.

Scelo:" come and eat you hungry " he

smirks oh this fool I see what he's doing
and I look at him and smirk back

Me:" nah I'm hungry for something else "

mapholoba quickly grabs a knife and turns
to me and I leave the kitchen running with
them laughing at me. I get in the car and
drive off to see my baby. In ten minutes I'm
there and the secutity lets me in.

Before I even knock the door opens and it's

aunty.

Me:" good evening aunty "

Her:" evening mbuso. I was instructed that
you eat first then go and see her. She's
sleeping and please mbuso I don't want to
wake up deaf "

Me:" I promise I'll gag her " she flushes then

quickly leaves the kitchen.

It's beef stew and pap and I take a bite and

know my wife cooked this food and damn I
didn't realise I miss her cooking this much. I
finish the whole plate drink water then go to
her bedroom.

As soon as I open the door I see lying there

naked the moon lighting her whole room
hands both under her head and she's
snoring snofly. Even though my heart is
heavy but right now I'm enjoying this
moment. Being close to her and to just see
her is the best feeling in the world. I take off
my clothes then sit next to her and just
watch her. This is home she is my home
this is what every man wishes for
themselves to have....someone who
completes you someone who takes your
breath away and someone you know the
sun rises and shines on them. I lay on the
bed with her and bring her body close to
mine and she stirs and sighs. I bury my
face on her neck and smell her and she
turns as best as she can then kisses me on
the lips and lays facing me and I wrap my
arms around her.

Her:" I love you "

Me:" I love you too baby " This is home. I'm

doing this in the morning I can't wait
anymore.
CHAPTER 23.

LUNGI.
I know he is not sleeping it's like he's mind
is somewhere else because he's holding on
to me so tight like I'm going to slip out of his
hold and he keeps kissing my forehead so
tender like I'm a little baby...his little babies
and it doesn't help that his dick is poking my
babies he'll scare my babies for life. I
wonder what's on his mind and what
happened when he left me here and I'm
willing to bet that he was with my
brothervand honestly these two together
the spell trouble.

I love the relationship both my soon to be

husband and brother have because I know
they'll have each others backs because
they are both very important to me and I
would nevervwant to lose either of them.
Dad giving us his blessing made me really
happy. I couldn't stop telling him how much
I love him and he's the best dad ever and
hev was haapy and very excited to meet
the baby I can't wait the day I give birth and
they all realise I am carrying twins. They
are going to love it.

I really love mbuso and I don't want anyone

else in my life even though when we first
met our relationship was based on lies and
secrets and it was hard very hard and I
never thought I'll be here today with him in
my arms like this. I never want to
experience that ever again in my life and I
don't wish it on anyone. I have forgiven him
completely and whole heartedly and I know
I'll always forgive him again and again
because that is how much I love him.

I can't wait to see what kind of father he's

going to be but I know he's going to be the
best dad because his father is the best
father to them and he looks up to him very
much. I have come to know this man like
the back of my hand and I know that
something is wrong and he's not going to
tell because he thinks I'm going to panick
and frankly I don't care as long as it's not
anything concerning my babies or him and
my family. Anything else can wait I sigh and
open my eyes and look at him and he
smiles and I smile back.

Him:" what is this pretty head thinking

about? "

Me:" nothing "

Him:" really? " I sigh

Me:" what's wrong boo? "

Him:" Nothing baby I just love watching you

sleeping "

Me:" I love sleeping knowing that you're

right here next to me "

Him:" I always sleep better with your warm

naked body next to me "
Me:" I'll start believing that you love me for
my body only " he tickles me and I giggle

Him:" I have never wanted anything in the

world as bad as I want you your love and
well yes your body. But I need your love
most of all "

Me:" you have my love mnguni all of it " he

kisses me passionately and deeply then
looks deep in my eyes.

Him:" what I have with you I don't want with

anyone else "

Me:" I want it all with you "

Him:" I'm going to mess up make you upset

but please promise me you won't give up on
me? "

Me:" I promise you "

Him:" I promise to always be by your side
be under you and be on top of you " I giggle

Me:" you'll let me ride you ? "

Him:" yes you will? "

Me:" I want to ride you now " he chuckles

Him:" not now I don't want to hurt my babies

"

Me:" but you won't "

Him:" when the babies are born you can

fuck me anyhow you want in everyway "

Me:" I love the sound of that. Is whatever

that is eating you have anything to do with
us? "
Him:" no baby it has nothing to do with us
and I hope you will keep an open mind
when i finally tell you "

Me:" I know whatever that is you're hiding

from me is something big and you'll tell me
when the time is right because I believe
your intensions for me are always good
even when I cannot understand what you
do "

Him:" you are the most amazing gift I have

ever recieved and I promise to cherish you
value you and appreciate you for as long as
I live "

Me:" I'm thankful to have you in my life "

Him:" you've taught me many things since I

met you luh and I value each and
everything you've taught me. Your
thoughtfullness humbleness kindness and
your compassion towards other people and
I thank you "

Me:" you don't have to thank me baby we

are in this together "

Him:" promise me will you tell if I start

getting intense with you again and scare
you? "

Me:" I promise you ".

Him:" I want to fuck you so bad right now

and just just lose myself in you "

Me:" what's stopping you? "

Him:" I don't want to hurt you your pregnant

"

Me:" I know you won't hurt me. I trust you "

He doesn't answer me but kisses me
roughly and deeply stealing every breath I
take. He cups my boobs and pinches them
softly and I moan in pleasure and slight
pain he reaches between my legs and
fingers me so good that I practically moan
when his thumb rubs my erect clitoris. He
kisses me and continues his on slaught on
me until my pussy contracts with his hand
in me and on my clit.

Me:" I want to feel you in my mouth "

Him:" tell me when you struggle to breathe "

I nod. I get up

Him:" don't get up he reaches between my

legs and fingers me so good that I
practically moan when his thumb rubs my
erect clitoris. He kisses me and continues
his on slaught on me until my pussy
contracts with his hand in me and on my
clit.
Me:" I want to feel you in my mouth "

Him:" tell me when you struggle to breathe "

I nod. I get up

Him:" don't get up just lay like that on your

side "

He turns and lays on his other side with his

dick directly on my face and I drool his dick
has veins and it's rock hard but the head of
his dick is soft smooth like velvet and
precum is leaking with precum so I wipe it
using my lips and tongue and he groans
and I swallow him in. I take my hand to his
shaft and bop my head up and down jerking
his shaft as I move and he tastes amazing
God I love his circurmsized dick. His hips
start to move fast and his dick keeps getting
in deeper and deeper and I remember that I
must breath through my nose and I do then
my throat opens and he goes deeper and I
almost gag then he pulls out a little and I
moan.

Both his hands are on my ass kneeding and

his beard is teasing my thighs so I strech
them open for him and I feel that I'm very
wet and my clit is very swollen it needs him
to tender it but it's like he's ignoring it on
purpose because he blows air to it and
keeps kissing my inner thighs very close to
where I want him. My clit is begging him to
give it attention but he ignores it I suck him
hard and try to swallow all of him in me and
my mouth and I feel him going deep and
he's just past my throat and he curses. This
dick is going to choke me to death because
it keeps growing

Him:" fuuuck baby! can you breathe? " I try

to nod but his dick goes deeper again and I
just moan and I can feel my neck and chest
wet of my drool and he groans I pull his dick
out a little so I can breathe. I take my hand
touch his face and mouth get my fingers in
his mouth and he sucks them then I move
them to my clit and yes oh hell yes I start
playing with it and It feels so damn good. I
move my hips insync with my fingers on my
clit then feel mbuso mouth on top om hands
that are on my clit and I swear it's the most
mouth watering sexy and erotic thing I have
ever felt. I try to move them but he shakes
his head no and I continue to play with my
clit while he's also sucking me.

My fingers keep going back and forth on my

clit his mouth in my pussy and I feel like I'm
on cloud nine. I can feel his sack tightning
and I know he's gonna come I use both my
hands and wrap them tight around his shaft
and suck him aggressively and he
increases his pace then smacks my pussy
with his hand then naps on it nips and
sucks it hard then my pussy contracts and I
come all over him moaning then I feel a
blast of cum going down my throat spilling
everything in me and It feels good I moan
and swallow everydrop. I lick him clean
then pull his duck out and it's still hard like
he didn't just come.

Me:" you're still hard "

Him:" I'm not done with you "

I'm still laying on my side when he gets

between my legs scissors style and pulls
my left leg up and to his chest then he
slides his dick in me and he fills me
wonderfully full with his engorged member.
I bury my face on the pillow and grab tight
to it as he slams into me hard knocking my
breath out but not too rough and he moans.
I love the sexy sounds he always make
beacuse I get off from them and they make
me very wet.

Him:" I'm always going to fuck you harder.

love you harder and always make you
smile" he says increasing the pace of his
stroking making me moan. His left leg is on
my front and his right one is on my back
then he brings his body down and kisses
me making my leg touch my stomach and
bend on over his shoulder.

This style makes my clit to rub with his

pubic hair up and down and it drives me
crazy and I can feel my orgasm building
again then he goes deep and fucks me
viciously and I scream as my orgasm hits
me like it's my first time experiencing this
feeling I screaming his name and he moves
off me then fucks me hard andv fast and
you can hear the sound of our wet bodies of
skin smacking another skin he groans and
fills me with his seed and I swear if I wasn't
I would have gotten pregnant now. He
gently turns me to lay on my other side then
pulls out and I feel his hot seed spilling
down my thighs.
He gets off the bed goes to the bathroom
comes back gives me a glass of water and I
drink all of it then he cleans me then lays
facing me and kisses me and I close my
eyes with a smile on my face and let sleep
take over.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 23.

I reach for him but he's not next to me. I

would have loved to wake with him in my
arms again but I guess he is gone before
dad finds him here. I expected to feel tired
when I wake up but I'm not. Mbuso is the
second man I've been with and I can't
exactly compare him to my ex because sex
was just all about him but with mbuso man
he knows how to please me and to think he
used to do that to other women makes me
get jealous but he's mine now all mine.

I get off the bed and go to the bathroom

and shower then wear my dress and I must
say I love my new wadrobe that I have now.
I go downstairs and find all my family there
including mbuso and his brother siyabonga
and it looks like they are discussing
something serious beacuse they are talking
very low and I don't like that at all because
they are usually loud and what is mbuso
still doing here dad will think he sneaked in
and slept here Jesus this man!.

Me:" sanibonani " ( good morning ) I give

my dad and mom a kiss.

Them:" morning luh "

Me:" Uncle siyabonga I didn't know we were

expecting you? "

Bonga:" I came to see how you guys are

doing how's my nephew or niece treating
you? "
Me:" thank you and I'm doing okay this little
one is being very nice to me "

Bonga:" I can tell because you're as

beautiful as ever my brother is one lucky
man "

Me:" and he better not forget that " mbuso

gives me a what the fuck look and I ignore
him

Sicelo:" and now no kiss for your big

brother? "

Me:" no " I sit next next to my dad

Sicelo:"what did I do? "

Me:" because you take mbuso away from

me then you guys get up to no good " I
have this huge feeling that makes me want
to cry and I don't know why and everyone is
looking at me confused then mbuso stands
comes to me

Sicelo:" I'm sorry luh "

Mbuso:" I'm sorry luh I didn't mean to go for

long but look baby I'm here now "

Me:" you always leave me when you get a

call and forget that I'm pregnant and I need
you here with me. Scelo calls and up and
go and leave me because whatever that is
you have to go to is much more important
than being here with me with us mbuso "

Him:" I didn't know know you felt that way

luh and I didn't go because it was much
more important than you. Nothing in this
world could ever be more important to me
than you and our kids. I promised to put you
first above anything else and I thought I
was doing that but now I know that I was in
a way neglecting you " everyone in the
house is silent listening to us

Me:" I worry about you when you leave and

don't tell me where you are and if you're
safe then you rock up in the middle of the
night like everything is fine " tears fall he
wipes them

Mbuso:" I'll do better baby I promise

whatever you need me to do I'll do it "

Me:" then why haven't you proposed to me

and given me a ring? " he looks at me and
laughs a little. " what's funny me asking you
when are you going to put a ring on it is
funny!? " I cry

Him:" uhm baby I.........." I run out of the

kitchen and go back to my bedroom and get
on the bed and just cry. I feel my mom's
arms around me as she holds me and lets
me cry.
Mah:" what's wrong baby? "

Me:" I...I don't know "

Her:" It must be your emotions pregnancy

does that. One minute you're feeling fine
and the next you cry and want to kill
someone "

Me:" I don't wanna kill him I love him but I

don't like him right now " I can feel her
wanting to laugh but she doesn't

Her:" did waking up without him get you

upset? "

Me:" no yes maybe I don't know " she

chuckles

Her:" it's okay to feel like this there's

nothing wrong with it baby. Being pregnant
does that it messes with your emotions ". I
wipe my tears turn and look at her and she
has a very sad look on her face and it hurts
seeing that kind of emotion from her

Me:" mah. can I ask you something? "

Her:" I know what you want to ask me but

ask anyway? "

Me:" have you ever been pregnant? "

Her:" I saved myself for a man I thought

was the one and I was going to spend the
rest of my life with. We got married then we
struggled to get pregnant and he blamed
me then I went and got tested and we found
out that I couldn't have kids and he divorced
me. Then I met someone else and imagine
my surprise when I found out that I was
pregnant but what I didn't know was he was
married and he gave me something twice to
make me lose my babies. First time I was
three months pregnant and the second time
I was two months pregnant and it led me to
not be able to have kids again because he
gave me too much of whatever that was "
oh my God!

Me:" I'm sorry ma how did you deal with it?

"

Her:" I prayed to God alot and asked him

for guidance and to heal me and then one
day I was fine by God's grace "

Me:" what happen to him? "

Her:" his wife left him and he became a

drug addict and killed himself "

Me:" You have me and to me you're a

mother I know my mom would have been "

Her:" thank you baby and that's the reason

why I love babying you even though you're
a twenty five year old woman. I can't wait to
spoil the little one you're carrying "

Me:" you are going to be the best

grandmother " she laugh and get silent.
Me:" why don't you date or have a boyfriend
because you're still young and beautiful? "

Her:" who saud I'm not seeing anyone? " I

looked at her shocked

Me:" who is it? "

Her:" You'll meet him one day "

Me:" ooooh mystery man is he handsone or

old and wrinkley struggles to walk? "

Her:" hell no he's very handsome? "

Me:" mah you have a ben 10? "

Her:"huh lungi a ben 10? never! " she
laughs out loud and I join her we laugh hard
and I almost pee on myself

Her:" how do you feel now? "

Me:" I feel heavy like I just want to cry hard

Sponsored
I dont know why. My heart feels heavy like
I'm going to receive bad news or something
"

Her:" luh you are pregnant and your only

concern now is your health and the baby
that you're carrying. Don't worry about
mbuso and where he is because you know
he would never do anything that would take
him away from you. Know that whatever he
does is because he loves you and wants
you to be safe always. Your brother too is
with him and he won't let him do something
stupid while he's there with him "
Me:" I know ma do you think mbuso will
forgive me for being disrespectful to him
infront of all of you? "

Her:" never apologise for expressing your

feelings. You were concerned and you have
every right to tell us how you feel and they
have to respect that and acknowledge it. It
was wrong of mbuso to just leave without
giving you an explination and you tlling him
you're concerns doesn't mean you are
being disrespectful ".

Me:" but he left after we left with dad and

still managed to come back and see me
and spend the night with me"

Her:" and what a night it was thank God

you're dad wasn't here "

Me:" you heard us? "

Her:" I heard you baby God luh you're loud
"

Me:" ma? " we both laugh

Her:" I know he came back to spend the

night but remember that he's still learning
too baby because he was used to do
anything he wants at anytime without telling
anyone or you where he was but since both
of you decided to give your relationship a
chance again he's been trying. Yes some
things are going to take long for him to
change but you have seen that he's a better
man to you now than what he was then and
that's all that matters. You don't need to
learn his every move but you just want to
know if he's okay "

Me:" that's all I want ma because I can't do

this without him. I want us to experience
everything together since we are going to
be first time parents "
Her:" open up to him and tell him don't hold
anything back "

Me:" thank you mommy "

Her:" I'm here lungile and I'm not going

anywhere for all of you "

Me:" because we need you "

Her:" come lets go and make you

something to eat you can't starve my
grandchild "

Me:" do you want my kids to call you gogo?

" we both laugh

Her:" nope I'm going to teach them to call

me glamma? "

Me:" ok glamma lets go and eat "

We get to the kichen and I find mbuso
sitting alone like he's mind is not here and
he's deep in thought. Mah goes to the
opposite direction and gives mbuso and I
space to talk. He turns and looks at me.

Me:" penny for your thoughts? "

Him:" I'm thinking that I suck when it comes

to this communication thing with you "

Me:" you don't suck boo I was just feeling

emotional and I took it out on you and I'm
sorry "

Him:" I'm happy that you told me that you

didn't like what I did because I asked you to
tell me if I mess up and you did " he gets
me between his legs and puts his hand on
my stomach and the kids start playing
Me:" but I shouldn't have done that infront
of my family especially your brother. H e will
think I don't respect you as my man "

Him:" I would have loved for you to tell me

when we are in private but also it showed
your dad that you are not afraid to tell me
when I do wrong and I'm a man who
realises his mistakes and will ask for
forgiveness. I don't want him to think that
the only time you're able to tell me how you
feel is when you're around them. Promise
me that you will call me to talk in private? "

Me:" I promise Mnguni "

Him:" how are you feeling now cause you

left crying then I heard you guys laughing? "
hand still onmy stomach feeling the kids
playing.

Me:" I feel like crying like there's this huge

sadness I'm feeling and I don't know why "
he sighs and hugs me and I wrap my arms
around him.

Him:" it's the pregancy baby my big headed

kids are making mommy feel upset "

Me:" my kids won't have big heads like

yours " I giggle he doesn't have a big head I
just love teasing him

Him:" you're everything to me you know

that? "

Me:" I know boo "

Him:" and I want forever with you you

know? "

Me:" silly man I know that too " I giggle

He stands up moves me away from him a

little then looks at me like he's scared then
he goes down on his knee pulls something
out of his pants and it's a box ring and I
gasp in shock and cover my mouth

Me:" mbuso? what? how? "

Him:" I wanted to this the right way the

proposal. I planned this romantic breakfast
picnic that I was going to take you to sweep
you off your feet and then ask you to marry
me but then when you asked me crying
when am I going to put a ring on it I told
myself fuck this I'm doing it now but then
you ran upstairs crying "

Me:" I'm sorry I ruined the surprise "

Him:" you didn't baby by now I should know

that we do things our own special way "

Me:" that's damn right "

Him:" Lungile Ngcobo my promise with this

ring is to only have eyes for you. Wear this
ring with pride knowing you're the only
woman who'll be standing by my side and
when you look at this it I hope it reminds
you of my promise to never stop loving no
matter what and I plan to marry you very
soon. I love you very much and I want to
spent the rest of my life breathing with you
Will you say yes and accept my proposal
and marry me? " he opens the ring and I'm
in awe. It's a square shaped diamond ring
and it look so beautiful.

I know he asked me if he could send his

family to my family and he did that then
asked for my hand in marriage from my
brither and dad and both gave him their
blessings and I thought it was it because he
never talked about getting a ring. I thought I
will get a ring on my wedding day but here
he is surprising me and proposing in my
father's house in his kitchen who does
that?.
Me:" I...I would't trade this moment right
here for...for anything even for a breakfast
picnic even though I'm so hungry because
to me this is perfect. Mbuso Gumede I'll
marry yes Ill marry you! " He gets up kisses
me then I hear loud cheers behind me and
it's my family and mbuso's dad is here too
wow.

They must have been listening to us and

waiting for my answer No wonder my aunt
gave us space it's because she knew.
Everyone comes to congratulate us and I
look at my father and everyone and they all
look very happy and I'm happy too!.
CHAPTER 24.

MBUSO.

Sicelo:" I hope she doesn't stay mad at me

for long and I don't even know what I did
wrong "
Me:" she's not mad at you she's just feeling
emotional. I think she can sense that thami
is dead but she doesn't know exactly that's
why she's lashing out on us "

Scelo:" so what do we do now? "

Me:" I have to call simphiwe and tell her not

to call luh then I have to block all her social
media accounts incase someone tags her
because they know she's thami's brother "

Bonga:" we have to go there and see how

we can help victor "

Sicelo:" we have to go today "

Me:" Have the guys arrived with buhle? "

Sicelo:" Yes they did early this morning.

They are in the farm and buhle is separated
from them her parents don't know that she's
there and she also doesn't know that they
are there."

Me:" and the dad's ? "

Bonga:" they went to standerton "

Me:" Man I wanted to be there and help you

guys but I can't leave luh alone she's needs
me right now and I made a promise "

Sicelo:" people are going to notice that

thami's parents and sisters are not there "

Me:" man I know but his parents don't

deserve to bury thami and buhle well she
might run away if we let her go to the
funeral "

Sicelo:" and she doesn't know he's dead "

Bonga:" I say we tell luh and let her decide

if she wants to go or not "
Me:" I really want to do that but I'm scared
that this might make her lose the baby "

Bonga:" I think you guys are under

estimating luh. She's a strong woman and
not some fragile child. Yes it will hurt her
but she can handle it and she won't let it
affect her pregnancy. She deserves to
know "

Me:" that would mean telling her the truth

that his own mother shot and killed him and
we don't know why "

Sicelo:" aunt has to be here when we tell

her "

Me:" I'll call my mom too she's going to

need all the support she can get. Bonga tell
one of the drivers at home to bring mom
here "
Bonga:" let me call mom " he goes outside

Me:" where is aunty? "

Sicelo:" she went to town I hope they won't

be mad at you for wanting to tell luh what
happend "

Me:" she deserves to bury him because if

we do this without her I'm afraid she'll never
forgive me and I don't want to lose her "

Sicelo:" you're right thami's death came at

the worst time "

Me:" I'm going to call preston I want him

here until the funeral is over "

Him:" maybe I should call ayanda too for

the moral support "
Me:" you will use any excuse you have to
see her plus she has a catering company
lets hire her to cater for the funeral "

Him:" great idea but I don't know if she'll be

up to it since you know what happened "

Me:" call her and find out if she says no

we'll get someone else but before you do
that we have to hear what victor says then
take it from there "

Sicelo:" I hope we're not making a mistake

by doing this "

Me:" me and you brother "

Bonga:" mom will be here in two hours "

Sicelo:" if we're all going to standerton we

need a place to stay because we can't stay
at that house "
Me:" let me call zinhle to get us a house to
rent for the week "

Bonga:" what do we do now "

Me:" both of you need to go shopping for

clothes because you don't have any here "

Sicelo:" Man this is my house and I do have

clothes here but I think we need to go and
buy food for them to cook during the week "

Me:" scelo can we trust the guys looking

after the mazibiko's? "

Him:" those are dad's men and we can trust

them. They won't escape "

Me:" call celeste and ask her to come here

and then go to town with her she's a woman
and she'll know what you need to buy "
scelo goes to the kitchen
Bonga:" I didn't mean to overstep brother
but I think she will surprise us and handle it
better than we think she will "

Me:" I pray to God that she won't take it

very hard but what do I know about losing
someone close to you like that someone
you grew up knowing is your brother "

Bonga:" man this is hard "

Me:" it sucks brother let me call preston "

Bonga:" who is he? "

Me:" luh's doctor you are going to love him "

I chuckle. I take out my phone and call him

Preston:" my baby daddy " this guy

Me:" how are you doc "

Him:" I'm great now that I'm hearing from
you "

Me:" I need your help "

Him:" is my baby mama ok? "

Me:" she is but I don't know for how long

which is why I need you to be here to
monitor her "

Him:" tell me what happend so I can be

prepared "

Me:" she lost her brother and she doesn't

know and I'm about to tell her "

Him:" Oh my God I'm so sorry to hear that

is it the brother you came with during her
check up?"

Me:" not it's not scelo "

Him:" ok I almost had a heart attack but
mbuso you know that telling her might have
a negative impact on the pregnancy? "

Me:" I know which is why I need you here to

keep an eye on her "

Him:" I'll be right there now "

Me:" I need you for a whole week here with

us. I'll pay you whatever amount you want
for the days you won't be at your surgery "

Him:" you don't have to ask me twice just

like I said I'll be right there send me your
location "

Me:" pack a bag for a whole week because

we are going to leave late afternoon "

Him:" ok " I hang up and send him the

location
Scelo:" was that the good doctor? " we both
laugh

Me:" he almost had a heart attack cause he

thought it was you who died " we laugh

Sicelo:" man he's crazy "

Me:" he has a thing for you "

Bonga:" the doctor is gay ? "

Me:" yeah "

Sicelo:" maybe he'll forget about me when

he sees you " we all laugh

Bonga:" I bat for the other team man "

Me:" where's celeste? "

Sicelo:" she should be here at any minute "

Bonga:" maybe we should invite zama too "

Us:" hell no! " he laughs. The security let

celeste in the house and she looks very
serious.

Her:" my bosses " then she looks at bonga

Me:" hey celeste this is my brother

Siyabonga "

Her:" sure small boss how'z it? "

Bonga:" grand you? " ( good )

Her:" super where's the boss lady? "

Me:" she's sleeping you guys should go so

we can get ready when you come back "
They all agree and leave and I'm left with
only the house helpers and luh. I go to
check on her and find her watching tv.
Me:" hey baby I thought you might still be
sleeping "

Her:" my phone woke me up it was ringing

non-stop " God!

Me:" who was calling you ? "

Her:" I think it was paul "

Me:" Paul who? Bonga's friends? " what the

hell?

Her:" no boo my ex Paul " that fucker I'm

sure he was calling about thami.

Me:" what did he say? "

Her:" I don't know I didn't answer it. Why is

he calling me after so many years? "

Me:" forget about him. How are you feeling?

"
Her:" stop asking me that I'm good "

Me:" I just want to be sure "

Her:" I love my ring it's perfect "

Me:" just like you baby "

Her:" boo? "

Me:" yes my love " she blushes and gets

red all over her face and gets flustered and
I know what she wants. I give her my best
smile

Her:" can we have...uhm " I sit next to her

and kiss her between her neck and
shoulder

Me:" hmmm ask me what you want my love

and I'll give it to you "
Her:" I want you to fuck me " what? she
said that?

Me:" love did you just ask me to fuck you? "

Her:" please boo "

Me:" tell me again "

Her:" fuck me I'm horny "

Me:" I love it when you talk dirty lets go to

the bathroom "

Her:" you are going to fuck me right? " we

go to the bathroom

Me:" I am but I don't want anyone to hear

you scream "

Her:" I'll try not to scream but you make it

hard "
Me:" I'm always hard around you love and
I'm going to fuck you quick because we
have to be somewhere "

Her:" where? " I lock the door and switch

the shower on. There's a huge mirrow on
the wall and a soft thick carpet. I drag the
carpet close to the mirrow and put it there. I
help her take off her dress and fuck man
she looks beautiful her tits have grown and
her ass jiggles when I smack it. I take off
my clothes too then take her hand and
stand her infront of me facing the mirrow.

Me:" you are so beautiful my love inside

and out. Look at us on the mirror don't close
your eyes. I want you to see how we look
when we're connected together "

I cup her breats filling my hands heavy then

kiss her mouth go to her ear then neck and
she moans arching her back to me then go
back to kissing her neck and her moans
drive me crazy fuck!. I move her legs and
stretch them apart then take my hand down
to her stomach and plunge my fingers deep
inside her sweet nectar and we both moan
and her knees get weak.

Me:" I've got you I won't let you fall " she
nods I find her sensitive hard bud and play
with it and her pussy walls grip my fingers
and I know her pussy is begging for my dick
to be inside her. I bend a little so my dick
can get between her ass cheeks and it is so
warm there I move my waist the same time
I finger fuck her and continue the pace of
my fingers and my waist and fuck it feels
amazing!.

Me:" look at where my fingers are look at

how they move in and out of your sweet
dripping wet pussy that I'm going to fuck "

Her:" please baby " I tell her kissing the life

out of her
Me:" what do you want love? "

Her:" I want you in me now please "

Me:" with pleasure my love " I continue to

finger fucking her and my dick is leaking
precum and I know it isn't going to take me
long to cum and I can't have that. Her pussy
grips my fingers and I know she's near so I
play with her clitoris brushing it softly up
down and side ways and then I plunge my
tongue in her ear and rub her clit fast but
soft and her legs start to shake and she
climaxes screaming my name and I hold
her tight so she won't fall.

Me:" kneel on the floor and put your hands

in the mirrow " I help her down and my
dicks rock hard and my balls feel heavy
they want me to release. She balances
herself with the mirror and I look at her and
just see euphoria all over face and if I could
take a photo for this moment right here I
would.

Me:" love look at us and whatever I do don't

move your hands off " I move off her a little
take her ass cheeks and separate them
then separate her pussy lips and see that
pink pussy glistering with sweet juice
begging me to taste it. I look at her in the
mirror and she's panting with her mouth
wide open then I lick my lips and bury my
whole face on her from behind and my
fucken God she tastes better each time I
feel her in my mouth. I suck all that sweet
juice and eat her like it is my first time
feeling a woman in mouth because it feels
like it. I eat suck and fuck her with my
tongue and she stretches her legs out and
arches her back giving me her whole self
then she moves and fucks my face and I
groan and play with her bud and she
moans.
I can't wait any longer I have to be inside
her now or I'm going to come all over her
back and she'll be pissed. I quickly get up
take my dick point it to her entrance then
slide home looking at her in the mirror and
her eyes are close and she's so wet and
very warm and she doesn't flinch when I
slide all they way in. We just moan and I
grind my teeth so I don't come at that
moment I pull out a little then thrust a little
hard and she opens her eyes and looks at
me. I grab on to her waist and start to fuck
her with calculated strokes

Her:" stop being gentle and just fuck me! " I

take my hands and grip her hair tight and
fuck her. I look at her tits and the bounce up
and down her face red and her mouth
swollen from my kisses fuck me!. I continue
my pace and fuck her fast not giving her a
chance to move and she screams and I can
see she's now struggling to hold on to the
mirror so I take her to my arms and hold her
gently then move turn us and lay her on her
side so she'll be facing the mirror and see
me moving in and out of her. I take her
head and lay it on my arm then raise her
leg up and slide back in again and God
what is she doing to me beacuse I feel
connected to her in a way I have never felt.

Me:" look at the mirrow and touch yourself

love " I move in and out of her and she
takes her hand and move it to her clit then
rubs it and she moans and grips my dick
and I don't hold back now and fuck her hard
like she asked me to and she keeps
gripping my dick and I'm gonna come. I
take my hand to hers and we rub her clit
together while I'm fucking her and I feel it
coming from my head and the bottoms of
my feet and straight to my dick.

Me:"how far are you ? " she keeps moaning

I move her head so she'll face me and kiss
her deep tongue down her throat then pull
my dick out then thrust deep in her hard
and she moans then fists my dick
squeezing hard and I press her clit and
smack it then thrust deep and hard again
and then spill my seed in her groaning in
her mouth and her body shakes from her
orgasm fucccck!.

We lay like that for a while then I get up and

leave her on the floor and I can see she
wants to sleep again and we can't have
that. The shower has been on this whole
time so I adjust the water to be a little warm
then get her up and we get in the shower
and I wash her whole body and she looks
so beautiful thoroughly fucked. We get out
and I dry her up and mosturize her and look
for another dress

Me:" love which underwear do you want to

wear? "

Her:" granny panties "

Me:" they look good on you "

Her:" shut up " she throws the pillow at me.

I cloth her then cloth myself.

Her:" did you feel the connection I felt? "

Me:" I did my love and it's...I don't know

how to explain it"

Her:" It was like our souls merged and we

became one "

Me:" yeah unbeleivable come my love lets

go and get you fed "

We leave and go to the kitchen and my

mom is there luh's mom my aunt luh's other
aunt my brother sicelo and celeste.

Mom:" hhay mbuso no ngeke phela

uzolimaza ulungi ukhohliwe yin 'ukuthi
ukhulelwe usumkhalisa kangaka? " ( No
mbuso did you forget that lungi is pregant
as you were busy making her scream? ) my
mom though everyone laughs and luh gets
embarrased and hides her face on my
chest and I chuckle. I need to sound proof
our bedrooms in our house and the house
we'll have in Durban.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 24.

LUNGI.

I can't believe mbuso's mom just said that

infront of everyone. I feel so embarrased
right now because I didn't realise I was that
loud unless she came to look for us in my
bedroon then heard us. There's no way the
whole house heard us because it is a very
big house at least mbuso is here with me
bacause I would have died of
embarrasement.
Me:" Sanibonani " ( good afternoon ) mbuso
leads me to sit down and I notice there's a
very beautiful almost tomboy like woman
sitting next to bonga maybe it's his girlfiend
I think.

My aunt brings me muesli and yoghurt to

eat because most of the time I eat that.
They continue to talk and I eat but there's
this tension and what puzzles me the most
is why is everyone here besides my dad
and my father in-law oh yes they must have
heard about the engagement and they are
here to congratulate us and I had also
asked my mom to help me with planning
the wedding and now they are all here.

Mbuso is talking with my brother and his

brother and preston went to the kitchen with
mah and I noticed he's not his bubbly self.
Mbuso keeps rubbing my back and I just
want to moan cause my babies and I are
enjoying that back rub and it can put me
sleep. I get done stand up to take the plate
to the kitchen but mbuso's aunt takes it then
goes to kitchen and they all come back sit
down and look at me. Ok this is weird.

Me:" If I wasn't getting married then I would

think this is an intervention because you're
all here well not everyone but you're here
not saying anything just looking at me.
What's going on? " I look at mbuso and my
brother then my mom and she comes sits
next to me and takes my hand then looks at
me.

Mah:" we have something to tell you well

your fiancee has to tell you? " I look at him

Me:" are you sick or dying? "

Him:" no baby I'm not sick or dying "

Me:" then what is it? "

Him:" I got a call from thami and it sounded
like he was talking to someone then we
heard a gun shot I..I traced his phone to
newcastle and when we got there we found
out that he didn't make it he died baby " I
look at mbuso and I have this huge urge to
slap him across his face then I look at my
brother and he looks very sorry.

Me:"who killed him and why? "

Him:" thuli killed him and we don't know

why and what exactly happend? "

Me:" when did this happen? "

Him:" yesterday " so that's why he couldn't

sleep

Me:" where is he now? "

Sicelo:" he's in standerton. Dad and

mbuso's dad went to see uncle victor "
Me:" so this whole time Thuli and Sipho
were her under our noses in newcastle and
you didn't know? "

Sicelo:" they we're there for a few days

before thami showed up "

Me:" so it took thami's death for you to

finally find them. Where are they or they ran
away again? "

Sicelo:" I don't think you want to know

where they are but....."

Me:" please sicelo don't play that card with

me I'm not stupid or naive. We all know that
in this family the Gumede's and the
Ngcobo's we don't let the law the police
solve our problems we solve them
ourselves so where are they? "
Mbuso:" your dad took them somewhere
and we don't know where " oh please!

Me:" I know you know where they are so

please don't lie to me and I don't care about
them. I asked you mbuso I asked you too
scelo that please find thami for me before
something bad happens to him and what
did you both say to me? what did you
promise me? "

Sicelo:" we..."

MaGumede:" shut up and let her speak her

mind scelo "

Me:" you had one job just one job you had
both had to do but failed to do it and you
failed me!. I lost the person who made living
with those people bearable I lost my brother
my best friend and my confidant. Between
the both of you and the money you have
you couldn't find one person? a 20 year old
teenager!? and you mbuso you're a hacker
but you couldn't find my brother but you
managed to find buhle and you we're busy
going to her because she was more
important to you than finding my brother
right? " he looks at me like I have just
slapped him on his face he looks hurt and I
don't care.

Him:" I know I failed you and I'm sorry I

couldn't save him and if I could I would
bring him back baby "

Me:" the last time I saw him and physically

touched him was when I was saying
goodbye and leaving with you at that hotel.
He's gone and I'm never going to see him
ever again " tears well in my eyes and I
don't want to cry and upset my kids but I'm
really hurting right now and I don't what to
do.
Sicelo:" I'm sorry baby sister we took his
situation lightly. I think he went there to
confront them about all the things they did "

Me:" it's my fault that he is dead it's all my

fault! " I hear them saying no I stand up and
start pacing

Me:" yes it is! I'm the one who told him what
happend then he goes missing then shows
up confronts his parents and they kill him
because of me. He went there to find the
truth for me and he died for it because he
chose me and not them!. How could I do
this to him how could I get him killed Oh
God! "

Mbuso:" lungi look at me! " he stands infront

of me then puts his hands on my face

Me:" I killed him mbuso I did! "

Him:" baby look at me "

Me:" no I can't I sent him to them "

Him:" please look at me lungile! " I open my

eyes and look at him

Him:" it's not your fault baby

Sponsored
none of this is your fault you are innocent
and so was thami. You were trying to warn
him to becareful of his parents and we don't
know what he chose to do and we'll never
know. He might have went there to find out
the truth or he might have went there to
help them we don't know and we don't
know what exactly happend for his mom to
end up shooting him it might be because he
found the truth and wanted to warn us or for
us to come and get him we don't know baby
" he hugs me and I hold him tight and cry.

Sicelo:" we will get justice for him we

promise and even though I have never met
thami I know he loved you very much and
he wouldn't want you to blame yourself for
his death. He would want you to celebrate
him and let go of him in peace "

Me:" I don't know how to do that "

MaGumede:" you pray lungi you pray and

ask God to accept his soul and for him to
find peace "

Mbuso:" you have two gurdian angels now

watching over you your mom and thami. I
saw him I closed his eyes and asked him to
watch over you and our kids "

Me:" He didn't desreve to die so young he

had his whole life ahead of him it's not fair "

Mbuso:" I know baby I know "

Me:" I want you to promise me something "

I look at him
Mbuso:" that woman has taken one last
person that really cares about me for the
last time and she's never going to do it
again because I want her dead "I hear
shocked gasps

Mah:" Lungi!"

Scelo:" you don't know what you're saying

lungi! "

Mbuso:" you are upset baby and it's

understandable that you'll feel that way "

Me:" I'm not stupid okay? I know you're

going to kill them! "

Mbuso:" baby? "

Me:" scelo you said that you will get justice

for him and the justice I want is her dead I
want you to kill her slowly and painfully! "
Mbuso:" sthandwa sam ngicela ungilalele "
( my love please listen to me )

Me:" you promised me that you'll protect

and this is me wanting all of you protected
because we all know that aslong as she's
still breathing we'll never get over
everything that has happend "

Scelo:" Mah please talk some sense into

her " he says to mbuso's mom

MaGumede:" from what I've told that

woman has been nothing but trouble for this
family "

Mah:" I want her dead too she made my

brother lose his family and we're not
suppose to get revenge after how many
years?...No! "
Mbuso'sAunt:" what is killimg them going to
bring this family? leeave it all to God "

Sicelo:" I'll have peace of mind and I'll sleep

better knowing the people who turned our
lives upside down are all dead! "

Bonga:" we are having all this talk infront of

the doctor here what if he goes to the police
and reports us? "

Preston:" My family disowned me when

they found out I was a gay man and ever
since I've been alone until this family
showed up at my surgery and they were
open and loving and for the first time I felt
like I can have a family of my own I can
choose my own family and when I invited
myself to be part of this family they never
said anything bad but welcomed me. So
what I'm saying is your secrets are my
secrets and if I have to prove my loyalty I
will "
Sicelo:" you are our brother now preston
your loyalty and word is your bond we'll
protect you in this family treat you like
everyone else and we'll always have your
back and we'll give you the love everyone
receives and it might suffocate you just to
warn you but it will not always be like this
because we will not always agree on things
and see eye to eye. We fight agaisn't other
people not with each other "

Preston:" I already feel the love and I wan't

all of it and thank you big brother and so
that means it's hands off to you too Bonga?
" I can't help myself and I giggle

Bonga:" we'll get you a boyfriend preston

yoh " he shrugs

Sicelo:" what we discussed in this room

stays here I will tell the elders what
happend only them and no one else " They
all agree even my other aunts.

Mah:" we have to leave now and go to

standerton "

Me:" is buhle going to be at the funeral ? "

they all look at each other

Mbuso:" we will have to ask uncle victor " I

nod.

Me:" I know she loved thami and I think she

should be at the funeral at least to come
and say goodbye his her brother too "

Mbuso:" okay baby. Are you okay? "

Me:" I'm not but I will be "

Mbuso:" you know the truth and now we

have to focus on laying him to rest and we
will all be there with you "
Preston:" let me check your highblood
pressure " I sit down and preston checks
me and the babies.

Preston:" your blood pressure is normal but

I'm going to be monitoring you and I want
you to relax and do nothing let the
grandma's do the work. I f you start to feel
even the slightest of pain you tell me "

Me:" thank you pres " we hugs me.

Me:" what happens now? "

Mah:" we have to go and when we get there

we'll find out what help they'll need from us
"

Me:" where are we staying? "

Mbuso:" I forgot to ask my assistant to find

a house for us to rent "
Me:" let me call the office I used to work for
they always have vacant houses "

TomboyLady:" give me the numbers I'll call

them boss lady " I smile and look at her

Sicelo:" this is celeste sis and she works for

us "

Me:" hi celeste and I'm lungi not boss lady

you making me feel old "

Celeste:" you're bosses mrs so you're my

boss " I give her my phone and the name
and she goes outside

Mah:" lungi man let's go we are waiting for

you? "

Me:" lets go guys but what about my

clothes? "
MaGumede:" I packed them but didn't finish
cause you kids were killing each other in
the bathroom "

Mbuso:" Mama? " she laughs this woman

though

AuntLwethu:" lets pray before we leave "

We all stand and she starts to pray.

Her:" Heavenly Father please bless our

families with your love and protect us from
harm. Give us grace to forgive strength to
overcome the difficulties we face and keep
us together when the world tries to pull us
apart. In Jesus Name Amen. "

Us:" Amen " we get in the cars and leave.

I can't break down now even though I want

to cry because of the pain that I feel inside
but I won't cause I have to be strong for my
kids.
I know thami wouldn't be dead if only I had
kept my big mouth shut he could be doing
whatever it was that he was doing and I had
to go and ruin all of that. I regret it and I
blame myself for his death. Please Thami
forgive me I never wated you to die.
CHAPTER 25.

LUNGI.

I never thought I'll be back here ever again

but thami's death has forced me to be here
and I must say it's bitter sweet. It's bitter
because he is gone and I'm never going to
see him again but on the other hand it's
good because I get to celebrate my
brother's life with sims and uncle victor. The
car stops outside the gate and the door
opens and my aunts all get out and I stay
behind.
There are many cars outside and I don't
see my dad's or uncle victors cars
anywhere maybe they are inside the
garage. My aunts well thami aunts I'm sure
are busy in the kitchen making tea and I'm
sure my grandmother...I mean thami's
partenal grandmother is ordering them
around and driving everyone crazy. I need
the strength to get up and go inside
because my legs don't seem to function I
look outside as everyone gathers outside
the gate and they start singing. Mbuso
opens the door and looks at me.

Me:" can you get sims for me please? "

Him:" you need anything else? "

Me:" just water " he takes a deep breath

and looks at me and he looks really worried
I give hin a side smile
Him:" I'll get preston to come and sit with
you while I go and get simphiwe "

Me:" thank you " I watch him call preston

then I see a car stopping next to us then
sims gets off then sees mbuso and she
goes to him and he hugs her comforting her
then points at the car I'm in and she comes
with preston following her behind. My dad
uncle victor and mbuso's dad open the gate
and then they all get in the house still
singing. Sims gets in the car then preston
and they close the door then sims looks at
him like and then you? then looks at me
and I just smile

Me:" long story short this is preston my

doctor slash adopted brother and preston
this is my sister and best friend simphiwe "

Preston:" hey sister bestfriend I'm preston

how you holding up? " preston asks her
giving a puppy dog eyes look and sims
looks at preston then looks at us and
laughs and we just look at her like she's
crazy

Sims:" I'm Simphiwe but you can call me

sims and I'm okay now that you're here
guys. You know I thought I was going to
ball out my eyes and cry when I see you luh
but then brother bestfriend here just made
me smile "

Me:" I know he's one of a kind " I wipe my

tears off.

Sims:" Oh My God Luh mbuso finally

proposed ? " she asks taking my hand and
looks at the ring.

Preston:" what?! Let me see and how did I

not see it? " he takes my hand from sims
then looks at sims and they both scream
my God these two
Me:" guys not so loud "

Sims:" are you kidding me you're getting

married bitch " I giggle

Preston:" when did he propose and how? "

Me:" Today midday at my parent's house

and it was beautiful " I tell them about how
he proposed and when I'm done we're all
wiping our tears off.

Sims:" I didn't think this day was going to

turn out to be like this and I didn't think you
were going to come until friday "

Me:" I think they were'nt going to tell me

and someone or something changed their
minds "

Preston:" they were worried about how

thami's death was going to affect you and
the babies "
Sims:" what? you're carrying twins? " I look
at preston and he giggles

Him:" well I had to share with sister

bestfriend but I swear no one else will know
wait how did you know? "

Me:" that doctor in Pietermaritzburg let it

slip he thought we already knew "

Sims:" wow this is blessing luh I can't wait

to spoil them " she hugs me

Me:" it's only the four of us who know and

please guys we want it to be a surprise to
everyone you better swear to keep it to
yourselves or else you are not going to be
my bridesmaides " they both scream and
hug each other

Preston:" are you thinking what I'm

thinking? "
Sims:" you bet I am " they scream again my
God these two are going to be a handful

Sims:I can't wait to find tlove too luh. I'm so

happy for you my sister I really am "

Preston:" me too because I only meet men

who want me to help them financially lie to
me use me then throwm me like a used
condom "

Me:" you will find love guys I never thought I

would be this happy with mbuso but look at
us "

Sims:" thami would be very happy right now

that he was going to be an uncle "

Me:" then teach my kids to steal meat in the

oven eat it then go outside to drink water so
no one will notice and when he comes back
his face would be full of gravy and when we
ask him what happen he would he say ( I
didn't steal and eat the meat in the oven ) "
we laugh

Sims:" or that time when he was six and

wanted to play with us and we told him to
go and fetch his shoes then we ran away
and left him behind and when we came
back he didn't sleep with us that night "

Me:" but when we woke up he was sleeping

peacefully between us and made us
apologise to him"

Us:" say askies my apple my banana and I'll

forgive you " we say at the same time laugh
and preston laughs too

Sims:" the three muskateers "

Me:" he made us watch that movie so many

times that we ended knowing most of the
lines " we laugh
Preston:" he sounds like he was the best
brother "

Us:" he was "

Preston:" I'm happy that I now have sisters

like you guys " the way he said it made me
tear up because you can hear that he wants
to feel loved and be accepted.

Me:" preston we accept you as you are and

we'll never change you. I love you as you
are and you don't need to be someone
you're not to try to fit in with us "

Sims:" I don't like people I don't know

around my space and circle but you you're
the puzzle that was missing "

Preston:" I was scared you we're not going

to like me sims "
Sims:" I think me and you are similar in
many ways and you're stuck with us now "

Me:" I love you guys but I'm pressed. I need

to use the loo "

Sims:" we'll get through this luh as long as

you're alll here we'll get throught it together
"

Preston:" lets hug before we go " we have a

group and and take a few minutes of
silence then we get off then I see uncle
victor standing outside alone smoking
looking at us.

Me:" guys you go ahead I need to talk to

uncle victor " They nod and I go to him and
he quickly tries to squash it off with his
hands but it burns his finger and I laugh.
Me:" I didn't know you smoke " I say smiling
he looks at me and smiles I honestly didn't
realise how much I missed him

Him:" luh kababa " he opens his arms and I

go to him hug him tight and he hugs me
tight too.

Me:" I missed you baba " ( dad ) I mean it.

Him:" me too ndodakazi " ( my daughter )

Me:" I forgave you dad I just didn't know

how to say it to you "

Him:" I know you did because it's in your

nature luh. You're never one to hold
grugdes "

Me:" I love you dad you are my dad too and

I want you to be part of my life again
because I still need you "
Him:" thank you my daughter
Sponsored
you are my dad too and I want you to be
part of my life again because I still need you
"

Him:" thank you my daughter you're so

beautiful glowing and your pregnancy suits
you " his hug is warm and loving just like
how he always hugged me.

Me:" did I ever tell you that I love your hugs

" I can feel him smiling then he kisses my
forehead

Him:" I now do know "

Me:" I still can't believe he's gone and I feel

guilty " he pulls me back and looks at me

Uncle:" What did I teach you about a guilty

conscious? "
Me:" it lives free in your mind and heart that
it eats you takes away your happiness and
changes you to be someone else but we
always ask for forgiveness if we feel that
what we did makes us feel very giulty. We
ask whoever we did wrong to forgive us so
we can move on with life and not be stuck
in that moment "

Him:" did you force thami to go and see his

parents? "

Me:" no "

Him:" did you pull the trigger and kill him? "

Me:" no "

Him:" then I do not want to hear of this talk

about you feeling guilty ever again. You
we're trying to keep your brother safe and
unfortunately things didn't go as we
planned. There are two people who are
guilty here and it's his mother and father not
you. You hear me Luh kababa? "

Me:" yebo baba " ( yes dad )

Him:" is he treating you good "

Me:" he is dad and he proposed "

Him:" your dad told me congratulations

baby "

Me:" you are going to be at the negotiations

right? "

Him:" I'll be the one counting the money "

we both laugh

Me:" I love you "

Him:" I love you lu kababa. Lets go inside

and greet everyone because they have
been asking about you "
I first go and use the loo then come back
and greet the elders in the room where they
are sitting and they make me drink some
water that thami's grandmother stirred with
her finger then they ask me to lay down and
call mah to come and take coal ash from
the stove and rub it between her hands
then smear it around my stomach and when
she does that my kids start to move and we
can actually see my stomach moving.

I haven't seen my all the dad's mbuso scelo

bonga and other males of the family since I
got in the house they must be busy with the
preparations. No one asks about where
thuli sipho and buhle are at and I think the
dad's said something about them missing. I
still want them dead I was serious about
that.

We would spend the night at the house we

rented then leave in the morning and come
back when we have to sleep. I have been
doing nothing and just helping where I can
Paul has been calling me non stop and I
think they said he came with some local
choir and asked for me but I was asleep. I
took sims kids to sleep with me because
she was busy and well because Mbuso will
come when I'm sleeping and be gone by
the time I wake up and he would sleep like
he's dead and when he first saw them
sleeping in our bed he said but the house is
big and he wanted to cuddle but then we
ended up sleeping with them between us.
He seems really tired when he gets in bed
and I hope he's eating well.

Friday comes and we have the most

beautiful night vigil for thami all his friends
from childhood school and university show
up and say beautiful things about him like
how he threw a party here in the house and
it was like he was saying goodbye cause he
kept saying he loves them and we also hear
something about him taking drugs and I
don't keep that in mind.

The day of the funeral comes and we go

and see thami outside the yard where they
made a lovely place to keep him because
he's not suppose to enter the yard and I
look at him for one last time and it's like he
will open his eyes and laugh and call me his
yellow bone sister. I wipe my tears.

Me:" You were everything a sister could

ever ask for in a brother and I will always
cherish and remember the times we had
together. I will miss your loud personality
goofy side and adventurous side You were
not afraid to go out there and try new things
and piss of your parents and you got a kick
out of it you took a peace of my heart when
you left me but I know that God had other
plans for you and he needed you more than
I did. Please watch over me and sims and
our kids because life will never be the same
without you thami. I hope you will forgive
me and take away this guilt that I feel. I love
you brother and may your soul rest in
peace ".

Mbuso takes my hand we go to the tent and

and wait for the program to start then I see
celeste wheeling someone in with a
wheelchair and I look closely it's buhle and
she looks like she's not here. She goes to
where thami is and starts crying and
apologising to him then comes back and
celeste takes her to where the elders are
sitting and stands behind her. I look at
mbuso through my glasses and he kisses
my cheek.

The programme start and it goes well and I

was afraid that there will be some huge
drama but everything goes smoothly. We
go to the cemetery and they bring a shovel
that has soil and we take it and throw it on
another empty shovel and when I look at
thami's coffin going down tears fall I look at
sims and go to her and we hug and I let a
loud cry and we cry in each others arms. I
cry so hard I cry and let everything out that I
have been keeping inside about his death. I
feel someone wanting to pull me off sims
but I shake my head no and continue to cry
and mbuso brushes my back while we're
still standing and crying.

Mbuso:" It's okay my love it's over now lets

go "

Me:" I don't want to leave him here "

Mbuso:" please baby lets go "

Me:" he's going to be all alone mbuso I

don't want to leave him I can't make him
come back please....wake him up and tell
him I still need him please he can't leave
me! " I sob on sims shoulder and she's also
crying then I feel something cold and on my
arm then I feel like I'm floating on air then
my eyes close.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 25.

LUNGI.

He has been awfully quiet since we got

back from standerton and I think it's
because he's worried about me and I don't
blame him. After preston injected me I woke
up at the hospital in Trichard and they were
worried but preston and the doctor he was
working with put me on bed rest because of
my blood pressure even though the kids are
fine but they are really worried about my
pregnancy because now they said they are
at the point of me being in high risk if I
continue to get upset I might lose one of the
kids or both of them.

Mbuso was really freaking out and he still is

and he won't leave my side. I got
discharged the next day and when we got
back in standerton I was cleansed and
mbuso too because we had sex and we
shouldn't have done that because I was
mourning. Thami's grandmother mah and
magumede and the other elders gave me
something to drink to protect the kids since
me and their dad had sex and they
promised me it wasn't going to hurt the kids
and I drank it it was tasteless and ugh it
was bad.

We left later that day and grandmother

made me promise that I'll come back to visit
her once the kids are born she didn't want
me to leave and was so sad but understood
that I had to go back. I asked sims to
relocate with the kids next year so we can
all be in durban and she said she'll think
about it. It's been a few days since we've
been here and I'm at my house and dad
didn't like the idea but understood that
mbuso can't sleep in his house while he is
not yet welcomed traditionally in his house.
We are sitting outside the verander and the
birds are chirping sun is shinning hot and
the wind is blowing slowly....I love this kind
of weather I look at my fiancee and he
looks like he's deep in thought brushing my
hand.

Me:" boo? "

Him:" I was thinking that we get a helper to

help you around the house since you are on
bed rest "

Me:" but mah helps us "

Him:" well technically she's my aunt too

even though she's 2 years older than me
and it's very weird that I call her aunty I
think I'm going to start calling her granny
that way I'll think she's way way older than
me. I can't believe your grandparents were
still getting it on to have a child almost the
same age as their grandson " we laugh

Me:" eeewww boo I don't want to think that

" I hit him with a pillow

Him:" but seriously love mah is family and

she can't be helping us like she's our helper
"

Me:" I know and they should all be focusing

on planning my wedding and I don't know
how far are they "

Him:" but I heard you speaking to sims in

the morning "

Me:" I asked her and the only thing she said

is everything is under control between her
and preston and the grannies "

Him:" I gave them a card to use on

everything and I told them the only time I
want to know something is when they are
going to tell me about choosing suits "

Me:" hmmm I can just imagine you wearing

a dashing pink suit preston chose " we both
laugh

Him:" hell no but I trust preston because he

dresses well "

Me:" and he's not your typical flamboyant

gay guy when you look at him you'll never
know he's gay until he opens his mouth and
starts talking " we laugh

Him:" preston is one free and open person

and I like that about him "

Me:" He's gonna be here a little later for

brunch "

Him:" which is why you need someone to

help you around the house and to prepare
brunch ask mah to get you an aunty to help
you baby "

Me:" he said he will bring something but we

gonna be moving soon so I don't see the
need "

Him:" soon? you're on bed rest and we

can't move out of town until you give birth
and love you haven't even looked for a
house "

Me:" mbuso I'm carrying two people I'm

always hungry hot and I'm always horny
and I'm on bed rest and getting a house
that I really want is turning out to be
stressful for me so I don't know "

Him:" you are hot my love and very very

sexy and I'm horny aswell ngiphe phela
haw " { please give me some }
Me:" we had sex in the morning mbuso
you're not getting some because I'm tired
and preston told you to stop sexing me and
let me rest " I giggle and lightly slap his
hand off

Him:" baby the clothes you're wearing don't

help look at how hard I am right now and
you're the one who asks me to fuck you and
I have to do what pleases my woman " I'm
wearing a see through light long dress no
bra no undewear and he makes me blush
when he says that

Me:" go take a cold shower honey or jack

off anyway as I was saying what's the use
of getting a helper here when we are going
to live in durban "

Him:" it doesn't matter when we get a house

there she'll come with us "
Me:" why does our maid have to be a she?
"

Him:" uh because most maids are women "

Me:" I want a male one "

Him:" what? hell no! "

Me:" why not? "

Him:" because he will look at you want you

and I'll probably kill him "

Me:" boo not those words around my kids

and men always look at me boo "

Him:" look why don't you take one of the

maids at your dad's house you know them
and they've been working for your family for
years "
Me:" I'd rather we have our own maid that
we can trust "

Him:" but who? "

Me:" I think madlamini "

Him:" she has grandkids that are going to

school who will take care of them while
she's here? "

Me:" she can relocate with them ? "

Him:" baby no she has five grandkids "

Me:" exactly and she needs that money "

Him:" I know she does but then we'll have

to get them schools buy her a house "

Me:" yes she can rent the one in soweto

then the one we'll buy will be part of her
pension money look we don't have to buy
her a very expensive house but just enough
for her6 bedrooms for her and each child 3
bathrooms "

Him:" property is expensive baby here in

durban and a house with as many rooms as
you want might be over 3 milliom "

Me:" I worked with properties so I know boo

I can use my own money that I get money
from my shares from all the business the
family has share's from dad's business.
shares from my brother's business and on
top of that they send me money every
month you send me money too and it's all
just sitting there "

Him:" I sometimes forget you're rich my love

and I wish you'd spend my money like all
women do you'll have shares too in my
business when we get married. Can you "
Me:" oh honey just wait until I have these
babies and I'll show you. So are we getting
madlamini here? "

Him:" no! "

Me:" why not is it about the money ? "

Him:" baby you know very well it's not about

the money hell I don't care about the fucken
money! "

Me:" you're getting worked up what's

wrong? "

Him:" I'm not getting worked up it's just that

having her here will remind me of how I
used to treat you love and I don't want that
for us. I want to forget about that time "

Me:" we are past that boo and I'm sure she

knows I forgave you and you said it yourself
that she misses me "
Him:" I once fucked his daughters when she
got sick two months after she started
working for me it's just that having her here
will remind me of how I used to treat you
love and I don't want that for us. I want to
forget about that time "

Me:" we are past that boo and I'm sure she

knows I forgave you and you said it yourself
that she misses me "

Him:" I once fucked his daughters when she

got sick two months after she started
working for me one day this one showed up
to clean and I fucked her and the next day
another one showed up and I did the same.
I don't want them to show up in future and
cause problems for us my love because
they trouble " God mbuso and dick of his he
keeps dipping in many things mxm!

Me:" that's what you're afraid of? "

Him:" yes and you'll get upset and maybe
leave me because of my fucked up
past...baby I'm sorry I shouldn't have told
you that "

Me:" do I need to prepare myself that one

day some woman is going to show up and
claim to have a kid or kids with you? "

Him:" no baby I swear that's never going to

happen. The only woman I want to have
kids with is you you're the only one who'll
carry my seed and birth my children ".

Me:" don't worry about mamdlamini's

daughters if they think they can come and
cause problems for us then they clearly
don't know you mr gumede and I know that
you have a past and we can't change it. I
don't care about the flavors of the month
because I'm the it boo "
Him:" yes you are " he kisses me

Me:" are they still alive ? "

Him:" baby no! "

Me:" I want you to not kill them until I have

delivered my kids because I want to
confront them "

Him:" baby please! "

Me:" I wasn't playing when I said I want

them dead mbuso I want them to die but
after they she has told me everything I want
to know "

Him:" I don't think your dad will agree "

Me:" I 'll tell him well I'll ask him "

Him:" why is it important to you to want to

be there? "
Me:" because I want closure so I can move
on whole heartedly from them "

Him:" we can record them and ask them

whatever you need to know you don't have
to be in the same room as them "

Me:" but I want to look at them in the face "

Him:" all this talk is making me hungry " and

he changes the subject

Me:" don't you miss work? "

Him:" I work from home baby being a boss

has those perks "

Me:" but sometimes you must be at the

office cause you're needed "

Him:" are you already bored with me? " he

says scratching his beard and pouting
trying to look like he's hurt and I laugh at
him.

Me:" no baby I enjoy having you here "

Him:" but what? "

Me:" you're a man who enjoys working and

I can see that you miss being hands on in
your business "

Him:" maybe I do but I love being here with

you and as I have told you that I'll move the
head quartes to durban for you and I'm
busy doing that "

Me:" what? when? " I'm excited

Him:" I bought a piece of land and well

since your brother is an engineer and
bonga is an architect I hired them to build
my office from scratch and I'll be seeing the
security stuff which brings me to this point "
Me:" which is what? "

Him:" I want to build you a house and and

you can design it whatever way you want I
don't want to live in a house someone else
built baby please honey love "

Me:" we can always renovate though "

Him:" it takes long it's better if we build it the

way we both want '

Me:" ok do it. how long do you think it will

take? "

Him:" I bought 3 houses in mount-

egdecombe and they are already being
demolished as we speak and we are going
to build a house for this huge family we
have "

Me:" I like the sound of that " I smile

Him:" can we take a break from everyone
and go away for sometime just the two of
us before the kids are born? "

Me:" I want that but I think we should do it

when the negotiations are done "

Him:" that's fine with me. I jus want you all

to myself no stress no anything just lots of
sex food and rest " my phone rings and it's
a number I don't recognise

Me:" hello? "

Voice:" hello lungi " it's a male voice I don't

recognise and he says my name like he
knows me and that scares me I put my
phone on loud speaker then signal for
mbuso to keep quiet and he looks at me
confused.

Me:" who is this? "

Him:" I know you but you don't know me "
mbuso gets up and takes his laptop and
start to type and I think he's trying to track
the call then takes his cellphone and types
again

Me:" can I help you with something? "

Him:" he stole you from me and I want

what's mine back ? "

Me:" excuse you? " I laugh

Boo:" who the fuck is this and what the hell

do you want from my wife? "

Him:" she's not yet your wife you stole her

from me! she was suppose to be carrying
my kids now but you and that family stole
her and I want her back " mbuso takes the
phone from me gets me up takes the throw
blanket and covers me with it takes his
laptop gives it to me takes the car keys and
I'm literally shaking

Boo:" tell me who the fuck you are so we

can meet and sort this out man to man and
why the fuck did you call my wife and not
me? " we leave the house and get in the car
and he drives out

Him:" I want her back she's mine and I will

get her back! "

Boo:" I will find you where ever you are and

when I do you will wish you never called my
wife and scared her. I will kill you with my
bare hands " I look at him and see no
emotion or anything and he's driving fast

Him:" not if I kill you first! she's mine

gumede and I am going to take her back
just watch and see " his laptop pings and I
think he found the location I see another car
driving behind us close and I start to get
scared. I look at mbuso and he sees the car
and presses the accelarator and off it goes
and I can see we're almost home and that

Boo:" we're almost home baby don't worry

Dad:" we'll find whoever it is baby don't

worry. Your aunt is in the house go " I get in
the house and leave them outside and they
I see them going to the gate.
CHAPTER 26.

AYANDA

I have been out of the hospital and staying

at karabo's place and it has been good I
guess because I haven't heard from tshepo
and he is nowhere to be found. I moved
back to my place after I stayed at karabo's
place for a week and lilly has gone on a
mini holiday with papa smurf and she does
call to let us know how she's doing and
what they are doing and she sounds really
happy and it makes me wonder what lilly
really thinks about this relationship she has
with mark.

The business suffered since I was at the

hospital and lilly gone too didn't help at all
because everything was on karabo's
shoulders. I don't have a car because of
tshepo and it wasn't insured because
insurance these days is really expensive
especially for second hand cars and I'm
now regretting not insuring it because it's
back to taxis again for me .

The bruises have gone down on my body

but my face hasn't exactly gotten the memo
because my left eye still has a lttle bruise
that cover with makeup. I avoided going out
especially to the mall cause the first time I
went there after I got back from the hospital
the looks people gave me you could see
pity and jugdement from others and I told
myself I'm going to leave my flat when I'm
all healed up.

I kept staring at my phone wishing that

scelo would call me or even show up where
I live but I haven't seen or talked to him
since the last time I saw him at the hospital.
It hurts me when I think about maybe he
just couldn't handle my drama even though
he said he's serious about me but with with
men these days you can never know and I
still find it hard to believe a good looking
man like him is single...he might be but I
know he's getting some from someone
cause he doesn't look like the type that will
be celebate.
Karabo:" I think that counter is squeeky
clean now aya " damn

Me:" I wasn't even aware that I've been

wiping the same spot again and again " I
sigh

Karabo:" what's bothering you? "

Me:" it's scelo I haven't heard from him and

I think maybe he changed his mind about
me and.... "

Karabo:" I saw him twice and I can't exactly

say that he is that kind of person who just
walks away from something they want
which is you and from what you told me
about him he sounds like a busy man and
maybe he's busy with work and will call you
and see you when he gets time ayanda
man ".

Me:" yeah maybe "

Her:" I can't wait to see him again and just
look at him "

Me:" you can look but don't touch "

Her:" I just want to get just one hug from

him and feel those muscles then I'll be fine "

Me:" I hope you don't fantasize about him

when you're sleeping "

Her:" me? never " she blushes

Me:" you haiffer I can't believe you " I throw

the dish cloth at her and we laugh

Her:" we haven't gotten any orders for a

while now "

Me:" I know but I hope something will come

up soon or else we are going to starve or
we'll have to shut the business and look for
jobs "

Her:" I know but I have faith that something

will pop up and don't forget we have a page
on all social media and were on the
database too so don't worry aya "

Me:" I wish I was lilly now "

Her:" me too " we giggle then we hear the

door opening and we look up and it's scelo
and he looks absolutely gorgeous.

Him:" good afternoon ladies " he smiles and

my heart melts he's wearing black short and
a yellow polo golf shirt and track shoes
baseball hat and he looks so damn sexy.

Me:" hello " I smile

Him:" I missed you " then he smiles and I

hear karabo sigh and I look at her and she
looks like she's about to drool jesus karabo
and her wondering eyes.

Me:" scelo this is my best friend karaboI

think you remember her and karabs this is
scelo the man I was telling you about "

Her:" I still remember him aya how are you

scelo? "

Him:" I'm good karabo "

Me:" can you excuse us karabs? "

Her:" sure nice meeting you sicelo "

Him:" likewise " karabs leaves us alone and

I just stand there and look awkward.

Me:" how are you? "

Him:" I missed you " I smile

Me:" I thought you forgort about me "

Him:" come and kiss me to remind me who

you are again "

Me:" that's not funny "

Him:" come here and kiss your man "

Me:" someone might walk in "

Him:" and you care because? "

Me:" because it's my workplace and I don't

want to make anyone feel..uhm
uncomfortable "

Him:" you're making me feel uncomfortable

cause you're refusing to kiss me. Get your
cute butt over here " I smile and leave the
counter and go to him and as soon as I
stand next to him he grabs my waist and
that makes me put my hands on his hard
chest and I feel my body reacting. He
brings his face down and looks at my lips
and I involuntary lick them and he kisses
and I stand on my toes and kiss him back
and it feels so damn good. I feel his hands
go down and they grab my ass and and
brings it close and I feel his hard girth
poking my stomach and I moan and try to
pull out from the kiss but he takes his other
hand and holds my head and kisses the
living day lights out of me.

Me:" scelo..."

Him:" hmmmm"

Me:" stop...." and he does and looks at me

Him:" I'm sorry I got carried away I just

missed you that's all " he hugs me and he
smells great too

Me:" I missed you too "

Him:" can I use your bathroom quick? "

Me:" yeah sure it's in my office follow me "

Him:" I don't think that's a good idea to be

alone with you in your office because I want
to do so many things to you "

Me:" ok I'll show you and leave " I step back

and look at his pants and his dick is
pointing forward.

Me:" you might want to cover that cause I

don't want karabo to see " he pulls his polo
shirt off his waist and it tries to cover it but
you can still see his dick

Him:" you think she might like what she

sees? "

Me:" she will you saw the way she was

looking at you "
Him:" do I need to get worried about your
friends? "

Me:" no they would never hit on you " I

giggle well karabo won't but lilly? I'm not so
sure

He follows me to the office and thank God

karabo is not there I show him our mini
bathroom

Me:" are you going to jack off? " oh hell no I

did not just ask him that and he looks at me
surprised and shocked that I asked him
that.

Him:" I was going to just pour cold water on

it but hey if you could help me out I'll be
more than welcome " he says looking at me
amused
Me:" here's my face cloth use it to wipe
yourself after the cold water has calmed
you down.

Him:" close and lock the door " he says

unbuckling his pants

Me:" scelo..."

Him:" do it " I lock the door and turn and

look at him and I think he's going to want us
to.....do I want that?. He takes off his pants
same time with his underwear and I see his
huge dick springing free and I close my
eyes blushing

Him:" what's wrong yaya? "

Me:" uhmmm nothing "

Him:" then look at me "

Me:" uhm nope "

Him:" you might aswell look cause the two
of you soon are going to be really great
roommates

Me:" roommates? "

Him:" yes he's going to be living in there

soon " I shake my head and smile

Me:" can you please go to the bathroom

and help yourself? "

Him:" are sure you don't wanna look touch

and smell him? " gosh the way he says it

Me:" scelo man " he put that thought in my

head and I'm sure it's the only thing I'm
going to be thinking about now

Him:" ok open your eyes my yaya " I open

my eyes and see his very cute behind going
to the bathroom and something heavy
hanging between his legs and I swallow
hard. His pants and underwear are on top
of my table and I just to go there and touch
his underwear and feel it. I hear the water
splashing and he curses and I almost go
there thinking that maybe he's hurt but nope
I'm not going there.

Me:" are you okay in there? "

Him:" yeah...you want to help me? "

Me:" no! " he laughs this fool. He comes

back after a few minutes and I look at him
again and he looks like he's still hard

Me:" didn't the water help him? "

Him:" I did until he felt your eyes on him

again "

Me:" put on some clothes please "

Him:" I like walking around naked "

Me:" karabo might knock and God knows

what will she see "

Him:" am I making you feel uncomfortable?

"

Me:" yes " he takes his underwear and

wears it and God I just want to put my
hands inside there....they are itching for me
to do it

Him:" I left your face cloth there didn't know

where to put it "

Me:" I'll take care of it " I go to the bathroom

didn't know where to put it "

Me:" I'll take care of it " I go to the bathroom

see it and I pick in up and imagine his dick
and balls moving all over my face cloth and
I get wet just thinking about it.
Him:" are you okay yaya? " I'm day
dreaming about scelo dick and balls what is
wrong with me?

Me:" I'm coming "

Him:" no yaya you won't be saying it like

that when I'm making you come "

Me:" you have such a filthy mouth "

Him:" and you love it " he puts his pants on

again and fixes he's clothes and I get a little
jealous when I think he could have been
with some other woman.

Me:" uhm you want to sit down? "

Him:" I want to take you out for late lunch

are you guys busy? "
Me:" no business has been slow since I've
been recovering "

Him:" what were your partners doing? "

Me:" well karabs is a mess when it comes

to cooking and she mostly deals with
paperwork and lilly well she left with her
boyfriend they are on a mini holiday "

Him:" mark went on a holiday? that's so

unlike him " oh boy

Me:" uhmmm it's not mark " he raises his

eye brow

Him:" she has two boyfriends? "

Me:" yeah lets put it like that "

Him:" hmmm "

Me:" what? "

Him:" nothing lets go "

Me:" can you wait for me at the front I want

to freshen up "

Him:" but I freshened up with you here why

can't you do the same? "

Me:" because I'm not forward like you " he

chuckles and it sounds sexy

Him:" you have a smart mouth yaya "

Me:" I know it can get me into trouble

sometimes "

Him:" I already see that. I'll go chat to

karabo don't take long "

Me:" ok " he kisses me then leaves and I

take a deep breath out
I lock the door take off my clothes then take
my toiletry back and quickly get in the
shower and shower fast using my face cloth
scelo used to wipe his dick after I'm done I
mosturise and look for my back of clothes
that I always keep wear fresh clean
underwear incase wear my summer dress
then my sandals and comb my hair put on
make up to cover my eye huge hoop
earings perfume then take my bag
and sunglasses and leave the office and I
find karabo and scelo talking then they
laugh and he has a beautiful white full teeth
sigh.

Me:" I hope you two are not talking about

me "

Him:" wow yaya you look beautiful " he

comes and kisses my cheek

Me:" thank you "

Karabo:" wow he even has a pet name for
you isn't he just amazing yaya? "

Me:" wipe that dreamy look off your face

shakes his head

Him:" the day I'm going to fuck this

smartness out of you you'll know I'm a man
baby " he whispers in my ear

Me:" I don't think you'll last more that five

minutes " he chuckles and I know I'm
pushing and I don't know why maybe I'm
still pissed that he hasn't told me why he's
been missing and not calling me.

Him:" I'm not going to touch you and fuck

you until you beg me to do it and baby it's
not gonna be easy to convince me "
Me:" hmm it took you less than five minutes

I look at him and he looks at me smiles and
the hair on the back of my neck stands.

AYANDA.

The way he's griping the steering wheel it's

like he's pissed and that scares me
because it reminds me of how tshepo would
get whenervhe was upset he would do the
same thing before I feel a hot slap on my
face but obviously I don't learn because the
way I talked to him infront of karabo is not
okay at all.

Me:" where are we going? " I didn't want to

say that

Him:" we're going to eat "

Me:" I know but where? "

Him:" does it matter? " he still won't look at

me I want him to look at me.

Me:" I guess not "

Him:" are you in a hurry to be somewhere?

"

Me:" no I don't "

Him:" then can I please drive? "

Me:" don't snap at me! "

Him:" did I snap at you? " he looks at me

annoyed

Me:" yes the way you answered me "

Him:" is it that time of the month? "

Me:" what no! why would you even ask me

that? "

Him:" because you're moody as fuck and

not the sweet woman I left at the hospital "

Me:" yeah the last time I saw you and you

didn't even bother to call me and find out if
I'm okay "

Him:" why didn't you call me too to find out

if I'm okay?. I could have been dead and
my family would have buried me but you
wouldn't know because you didn't even
think of calling me did you even think of
doing that? "

Me:" how will I call you when I don't even

have your phone number scelo? " he looks
at me shakes his head then takes out his
phone

Me:" please keep your eyes on the road "

he ignores me then he taps still driving and
looking at the road

Me:" don't you know the rules of the road?

no driving or texting or talking on the phone
with one hand while driving " ugh!

Him:" I've been driving even before you

were born " he taps then I hear my phone
ringing and I take my bag and fish for it find
it and when I look at the screen it says {
your man is calling } and I laugh
Me:" you are so full of yourself "

Him:" insult me yaya again yaya "

Me:" fuck you scelo " he chuckles.

I don't know why I act around him this way

and I can't help myself because for the first
time he makes me feel like I can be myself
around him and I like that about him. I don't
have to pretend to be someone else I can
just be myself. Oh my fucken God he's
taking me to the Shandu Ka Ndaba
Resturant from the famous Mbatha family
Oh my God I have always wanted to come
here .

Me:" wow scelo this place is amazing I have

always wanted to come here thank you " I
hug him excited
Him:" look who's touching who now " he
smirks

Me:" fuck off scelo "

Him:" hmm" he chuckles

Me:" wait don't you have to book in

advance to come here? "

Him:" lets just say I know someone who

knows someone "

Me:" wow impressed " a waitress comes

Her:" hello I'm thandi and I'm going to be

your waitress did you reserve a table or can
I get you a table for two? "

Sicelo:" we have a reservation sicelo

mbatha " I will never get over how he
pronounces his name he says it in full not
scelo but sicelo yoh this man!. I giggle and
he looks at me and our watress here has
her eyes all over my man's body. She takes
out her tablet and does something

Her:" oh here it is please follow me mr

ngcobo " we follow her and my girl here is
shaking her booty and I almost laugh. I look
at scelo and he's looking at it. I elbow him
and he pretends that I hurt him.

Him:" what? "

Me:" do that again and I'm going to take out

your eyes "

Him:" ohh you are jealous "

Me:" oh please! " I roll my eyes

Him:" don't worry yaya your ass is the only

one I want "
Me:" of course you do cause I'm the only
one who can stand you " he laughs a deep
belly laugh and me and thandi look at him. I
don't blame her but she has to stop it it's
enough now.

Me:" is this our table thandi? "

Her:" oh yes it is " she looks flustered

Me:" you can look at him but his dick only

gets hard for me I took him to my
grandmother and she did the things. Watch
what I'm going to say. Baby you know that
I'm fucking your best friend and you at the
same time and you're okay with that right? "
God what am I doing scelo is going to kill
me he looks at me and smirks.

Him:" yes my love I know and I don't mind

because I share with my brothers "
Her:" wow sister can you please hook me
up with your grandmother too? "

Me:" remind me when I leave " she nods

then gives us our menus and I order red
mine and scelo orders whiskey then order
our food then she leaves. We look at each
other in silence then laugh our asses off
and some people look at us like we're
crazy.

Him:" oh aya aya aya. You are trouble "

Me:" that's because you bring out the best

in me " he looks at me intensely and I start
to get uncomfortable.

Him:" you really mean that? "

Me:" yeah aya. You are trouble "

Me:" that's because you bring out the best
in me " he looks at me intensely and I start
to get uncomfortable.

Him:" you really mean that? "

Me:" yeah for the first time in my life I feel

like I can be myself and it's you who's
making me feel that way"

Him:" I'm glad to hear that but I can't take

all the credit. You're taking your life back in
your hands and you're doing great baby "

Me:" thank you " our starter comes and we

dig in the food in this place is out of this
world. We talk and we laugh alot and I can't
remember the last time I was this happy
and carefree not worrying about pissing
someone off.

Him:" you're frowning what are you thinking

about? "
Me:" where were you? "

Him:" After I left you at the hospital when I

got to my place my sister's fiancee was
there with his brother I take them as my
brothers that's how close we are and so we
got a call that my sister's other brother was
shot and we had to go to newcastle and we
found out that he died. He was from
Standerton and we had to go there and
help with the funeral and my sister is
pregnant and so her fiancee had to tell her
and she took it better than we thought "

Me:" wow I'm so sorry for your loss scelo "

It take his hand to mine and hold it.

Him:" I would tell you some other time how

we're all related cause it's a long story. My
sister on the day of the funeral was crying
hard and so preston who's a doctor injected
her to calm her down and she was taken to
the hospital and she's now on bedrest "

Me:" I hope she's okay now and the baby is

fine "

Him:" she is she's one strong woman and

when you meet her you are going to see
what an amazing woman she is " he smiles
and you can see the love he has for his
sister.

Me:" I can't wait " I really mean it and I

wonder if she's anything like him.

Him:" you want to see her ? "

Me:" yes please " he takes out his phone

and he has a picture of her as his screen
saver and I feel a stab of jealousy that it
should be me there then I feel guilty how
can I be jealous of his sister my God what
is wrong with me?!.
He unlocks his phone with his thumb then
goes to his gallery then he shows me
pictures of the most beautiful girl I have
ever seen. Wow that's his sister and she
looks like him even though she's light
skinned and her hair is insane and she has
a very beautiful warm kind smile that's very
inviting and I smile back and just looking at
her picture you can feel her aura it's very
calm and poistive " he shows me other
pictures of her and I'm in awe then he
shows me another picture where she's
sitting and laughing there's his dad and a
woman and a man who looking at her.

Me:" wow she's beautiful scelo and is this

her fiancee? "

Him:" yeah that's Mbuso and she's Lungile

but we call her luh and that's my dad and
my aunt " he chuckles and shakes his head
Me:" wow the way he's looking at her it's
like he sees only her and no one else "

Him:" who? "

Me:" Mbuso "

Him:" why do you say that? " he frowns and

I giggle

Me:" it's his body language his eyes...his

whole demeaner that intense look wow it
is..." I get goosebumps all over my body

Him:" unexplainanble? " exactly that

Me:" yes " he must really love her

Him:" you'll meet them soon and they'are

gong to love you "

Me:" you're saying this for the second time

scelo do you mean it? "
Him:" I told you that I want only you and I'm
serious about you so yes I mean every
word " I smile and we continue to chat and I
must say I have really strong feeling for
scelo....I really like him. My phone rings I
take it out of my bag and I see a number I
don't recognise but I answer thinking it
might be a potentila client.

Me:" Ayanda Maseko hello? "

Him:" I see it didnt take you long to move

on without me cause you're already out and
dating some frog " I freeze the moment I
hear his voice and all the colour leaves my
face and then I start to shake.

Scelo:" aya?....aya? " I look at scelo calling

my name

Me:" he's here he's here scelo tshepo is

here watching us " I look around but don't
see anyone as my eyes well with tears I
drop the phone and scelo picks it up.

Scelo:" you have some fucken guts to call

her while you know there's a fucken price
on your head " scelo says and I don't hear
what tshepo says but it seems that
whatever he's saying is pissing scelo more
and more.

Him:" you better pray and hope the police

find you before I do" he says then hangs up
and looks at me.

Scelo:" lets get out of here " I take my bag

and he takes out his wallet and throws a
bunch of notes on the table then takes my
trembling hand and looks at me.

Him" I've got you ayanda he won't hurt you

ever again I promise " we leave the
resturant and go to his car and we drive off.
Me:" can you please take me to my place?"

Him" what? hell no! you're not going to your

place. I'm not going to leave you alone
while that sick fuck can come and get you "

Me:" I'll call karabo to come so I won't be

alone"

Him:" that's why I'm taking you to her place

" I look outside the window and see we're
almost there damn.

Me:" I'll be fine don't worry "

Him:" you're shaking ayanda and I want to

take you to my place "

Me:" scelo please! "

Him:" I'm your man and I want to protect

you but you won't let me and I don't want to
force you to do anything you don't want to
do. come " I use my key and let myself in.

Him:" I shouldn't leave you alone here yaya

please come with me! "

Me:" I just want to be alone scelo don't you

get it?! " I shout at him

Him:" fine call karabo and let her know

you're here. You'll tell me when you want to
see me " then he closes the door and
leaves.

I pour myself a glass of wine sit on the

couch go through my phone then block the
number that called me fuck you tshepo I
hate you!.
CHAPTER 27.

SICELO
This girl is stubborn and she doesn't
understand that that psycho knows where
her friends live and if he doesn't find her at
her place he might come here and find her.
As much as I want to go back to my place
and leave her I can't because he might
show up and hurt her and possibly kill her
this time. I leave karabo's complex and go
to a garage near where she is park there
and call celeste.

Her:" boss? "

Me:" I'll send you the location of where I'm

at I think ayanda's ex is following her and
might show up at her place later and he
saw the car I was driving so I left her at her
friends place and I'm at the garage now and
I want us to exchange cars and tell the
other guys to come too so we can catch
him if he shows up "
Her:" okay boss man " I send her my
location and wait and 20 minutes later she's
here she gets in the car and sits.

Me:" that was fast "

Her:" I wasn't busy I need her friends

address so I can send the guys to watch
the place " I give her the address and her
picture and karabo's complex number and
she sends it.

Me:" she's so damn stubborn "

Her:" why didn't you take her to your place?

"

Me:" she said she wants to be alone and I

didn't want to overwhelm her and push her
cause she's still hurting over what her ex
did and me putting pressure on here will
just push her away from me. I'll give her
space she needs and hopefully she'll call
me once she comes down I think "

Her:" she sounds like she's a handful "

Me:" that she is and that smart damn mouth

of hers " she laughs.

Her:' can't wait to meet her? "

Me:" you'll like her " we get out of the car

Her:' you want me to stay with you? "

Me:" do I look like I need a babysitter? "

Her:" yeah you do you look pissed and you

might just hurt someone " she laughs at me

Me:" get in celeste and what I want is for

ayanda to do as I say follow my rukes that's
all... "
Her:" she doesn't sound like the type to
follow someone's rules "

Me:" when I first saw her amd met her I

thought she was the submissive kind but
now I'm not sure "

Her:" you can always bend her to the way

you want "

Me:" I'm not sure "

Her:" let me go get us something to drink

what do you want? "

Me:" just water "

Her:" are you sure cause you look like you

need something strong? "

Me:" I do just get me can of heineken "

Her:" now that's my boss " she leaves and I
take out my phone and think of calling
ayanda but I leave it. Celeste gets back and
we sit in the car for almost 3 hours and tells
me the guys told her that ayanda orderd
uber eats and the guy delivered and then
left.

Me:" I'm going home tell the guys to change

shifts but I want her watched 27/4 and call
me if they see or even suspect anything "

Her:" I'll stay behind too I'll leave at

midnight just incase that punk shows up "

Me:" sure " I get in the car and drive straight

to my place and the smell of food hits me I
smile and go to the kitchen and find zama
there cooking. I know she knows that I'm
here but she doesn't acknowlegde my
presence and continues to cook and I don't
like that.
Me:" hello zama " I sit down and look at her
behind the stove

Her:" good evening sir " what ?

Me:" zama? "

Her:" yes sir? "

Me:" look at me " she ignores me and

keeps stirring the pot

Her:" the food is almost ready can I dish up

for you sir? "

Me:" will you stop calling me sir and look at

me " she still won't fuck! what is it with
women today?. I get off chair and go to
where she is and try to turn her so she'll
look at me

Her:" please don't touch me! " I ignore that

and I turn her and see that her face looks
red and puffy like she's been crying for a
while and it does something to my heart.

Me:" hey what's wrong? why are you

crying? "

Her:" nothing can I please dish up for you

sir? "

Me:" stop calling me that "

Her:" why? wasn't it you who told me that

things have to be professional between us?
"

Me:" I know I did but I don't want you to be

this cold towards me? "

Her:" scelo what the hell do you want from

me exactly? I follow and do whatever that is
you want from me but it's still not enough. I
begged and begged for you to leave me
alone but you wouldn't you kept on
persuading me until you left me no choice
but to give in. I tried to date but you would
sabotage that and threaten them to leave
me alone and I have no life besides being
your play thing that you use whenever you
want to and I don't complain because I give
myself to you. I have people always
following me I have no freedom cause they
report to you whatever I do or wherever I go
and I get introuble for wanting to have a life
and then you decide that you've had
enough of me and you toss me away like a
piece of shit that you're done using and I
must just accept and I did exactly that!. You
would bring women here and fuck them
with me under the same roof and yet still I
never complained because I knew my place
and I would still allow you to be inside and
not complain but no more it's enough now!
". her tears fall hard with every word that
stings my heart and I just stand there
because everything she says is the truth.
Me:" I was doing all of this because I
wanted to protect you I thought..."

Her:" thought what scelo? that I wouldn't fall

inlove with you that it wouldn't hurt me
when you tell me that you've met someone
and you're serious about her and I have to
accept it cause there's no future with us and
there never was?. Did you ever take a
minute and think how did I feel when you
told me all of that?. I gave myself to you
with my heart body and soul because I
thought that maybe just maybe you would
see me as a woman and not just your
housekeeper that you fuck. I know I'm not in
your league and I'm not the type of woman
you would want to bring to your family and
it's okay I understand that now but what I
want from you sir is to leave me alone ".

Him:" zama I thought you didn't mind

because you never said anything why d...."
my phone rings and I look at it and it's
ayanda fuck! I look at zama and she shakes
her head and looks really hurt

Her:" answer it sir someone else needs you

" she goes and leaves me in the kitchen
and I watch her go to her room and I stand
there and look at her.

Me:" ayanda? "

Her:" please come and get me "

Me:" what's wrong? "

Her:" nothing I just miss you "

Me:" I'm coming "

I look at where zama disappeared cover my

face with hands shake my head then take
my car keys and leave my house. I get off
the car and go to her to karabo's flat and
knock on the door and I wait for few
minutes then she opens the door

Me:" you just opened the door and didn't

ask who it is are you crazy? "

Her:" oh please I knew it was you! " she

rolls her eyes and she reeks of alcohol

Me:" why don't you care about your safety

ayanda? or did you forget what tshepo did
to you? "

Her:" because I know how he knocks okay I

would have known if it was him "

Me:" that sounds stupid and very reckless "

Her:" I didn't ask you to come here so you'll

tell me about how reckless and stupid I am
okay "
Me:" yes you are reckless because you're
drunk
Sponsored
I would have known if it was him "

Me:" that sounds stupid and very reckless "

Her:" I didn't ask you to come here so you'll

tell me about how reckless and stupid I am
okay "

Me:" yes you are reckless because you're

drunk you open the door and you don't ask
who it is! Tshepo could have been the one
that was knocking and he would have done
something to you easily because you're
drunk! "

Her:" don't you dare call me easy okay? I'm

not easy! "

Me:" ayanda I never said you're easy I

meant in the state that you are in now it
could have been easy for him to hurt you
doesn't that scare you? "

Her:" I'm not worried about that cause

you're here now " fuck this woman!

Me:" how many glasses did you drink? "

Her:" a whole bottle I'm about to open

another one do you want some? " what?

Me:" no I'm good why don't you drink some

water so you'll feel better? "

Her:" don't tell me what to do tshepo used

to that and I swore that I'm not going to let
another man tell me what to do so stop it! "

Me:" why do you talk to me like that using

that tone? "

Her:" what tone scelo gees you're so uptight

you need to losen up live a little man " wow
Me:" where is karabo? "

Her:" I don't know probably getting dicked

down wherever she is " she laughs

Me:" ok get your bag and lets go "

Her:" ok but lets go to club after yes the one

that you saw me at " she gets up stumbles
and I hold her.

Me:" no you need sleep that wine off and

we both had a long day "

Her:" you are no fun you're boring " she

says taking her bag

Me:" give me the keys I'll lock up " she

gives them to me and I lock up get her in
the car and drive to my place. She talks a
bunch of things and I just listen to her.
Maybe ayanda is not really ready to be in a
relationship with me or anyone and I don't
know if she's acting out because of the
abuse or maybe she's really showing me
her true self but I think she needs some
counselling to deal with the truma she
experienced and then maybe she'll heal
and be better. I won't give up on her she
needs my help and I'm going to help her
and be there for her every step of the way
as long as she lets me.

Her:" don't ignore me I'm right here " she

slurs

Me:" I'm driving ayanda I'm not ignoring you

"

Her:" when are we getting to your place? "

Me:" we're here " I drive in and park the car

ayanda gets off I do too then take her hand
and lead her to the front door and open it."
this is my home welcome "

Her:" wow your house is big and it looks

very expensive and nice I like it "

Me:" welcome "

Her:" what is that smell? "

Me:" food you're hungry? "

Her:" no "

Me:" then lets get you to bed "

Her:" but I want to see the house first? "

Me:" you'll see it tomorrow come "

Her:" ooh you're in a hurry to take off my

clothes and fuck me aren't you? "
Me:" ayanda come you're drunk and you
must sleep "

Her:" ugh lets go " I take her to the guest

bedroom

Me:" you'll sleep here here's the bathroom

and I'll get you something to wear while you
shower "

Her:" is this your bedroom? "

Me:" no "

Her:" why didn't you take me to your

bedroom? "

Me:" because I want you to feel comfortable

and not think that I want to sleep with you "

Her:" but I want to sleep with you "

Me:" no not like this "

her:" then get out and leave me to sleep "

Me:" good night ayanda call me if you need

anything " she ignores me and I close the
door then stand for a few minutes then hear
her mumbling stuff then she gets in the bed.
I open the door a little and see that she's
already knocked out sleeping. I switch the
lights off then close the door.

Somehow my feet take me to zama's room

cause that's where I'm standing now right
outside her bedroom door. I'm about to
knock when I hear her soft cries and I stand
there and listen to her crying. I want to go
there and comfort her but I don't know what
to say and I don't want to hurt her further so
I swicth all the lights off and go to my
bedroom take off my clothes shower get in
bed and zama's words keep playing in my
head over and over until I fall asleep.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 27.

www.allnovelworld.com
I hardly slept because I kept tossing and
turning all night thinking about ayanda
zama. I wake up go shower then go and
check on ayanda to see if she's still
sleeping or awake. I knock softly on the
door cause I don't want to wake her up
incase if she's still sleeping she doesn't
answer so I open the door and poke my
head she's still sleeping off the wine. I close
the door and go to the kitchen I'll ask zama
to make her greasy breakfast cause she's
going to wake up with a huge hangover.

I get to the kitchen and I notice that there's

no smell of the fresh brewing coffee or
breakfast made. Zama is usually awake by
this time and is cleaning somewhere in the
house or maybe she's sick cause I left her
crying last night. I go to her room and knock
soflty.
Me:" zama? are you okay? " she doesn't
answer me. " can you open the door for
me?........ok I'm coming in " I open the door
and she's not there her bed is perfectly
made then I look at her dressing table and
a picture frame of her mom is not on there
where is it cause it has always been there?.
A slight fear of tremour hits me I go to the
bathroom and her feminine toiletries are not
there. I open her closet and its empty.....no
wait! she's not gone!.

I leave her bedroom and head to the

cottage maybe she moved out of the house
to give me and ayanda space yes I'll find
her there. I don't knock just open the door
and get in hoping to find her but the cottage
is also empty. It's in the same way I
remember and she's not there she left she
fucken left me!.
I go to the house get my phone from the
bedroom go to the living room and call her
phone but it says the number doesn't exist
fuck zama where the fuck are you at?!. I
call the security guys to come to the house
and they get in.

Me:" when did zama leave? "

Dan:" like two hours ago boss "

Me:" what was she carrying anything with

her? "

Dan:" only her handbag sir "

Me:" where did she say she was going? "

Dan:" she said she's going to the garage to

get something "

Me:" and when and hour passed you didn't

find it strange that she's not back? "
Dan:" we thought that maybe she went
somewhere or maybe she met a friend
there "

Me:" and you didn't think to go look for her

or let me know that she's not back? go to
that garage and find out where she went or
if she's there " they leave and I try to tell
myself that she didn't leave she's still at the
garage but deep down I know that she's
gone she made sure that she'll leave while
I'm still sleeping but when did she start
moving her things out? was it when I told
her about ayanda or when we went to
standerton? " I call mbuso cause he's the
only one that will track her last location and
I know I'll find her.

Him:" Mapholoba? "

Me:" Mnguni how's it going brother? "

Him:" I'm great man but I could ask you
since you're the one who's calling me "

Me:" where's luh? "

Him:" my rib? she's right here sleeping

why? "

Me:" man I need to talk to you "

Him:" what's wrong? " I hear shuffling

Me:" fool are you putting some clothes on?

"

Him:" yeah I have just put your sister to

sleep " he laughs

Me:" man fuck you "

Him:" brother you sound moody you need

to get laid " we laugh
Me:" zama left "

Him:" how do you mean? " I hear a door

closing

Me:" she packed her things and left she left

me " I sigh and close my eyes

Him:" left you? you guys were not together

so how did she leave you brother what
happened? "

Me:" well she told me.... " I tell him what she
said to me.

Him:" ok let me get this right you told her

that you guys are just fucking and it's
nothing serious but then you cock block her
from guys who want her and her from the
guys she wants to date? is that what you
did? "
Me:" yeah I couldn't fuck her while I knew
that she was fucking some other guy "

Him:" yet you said you're just fucking but it's

only you who gets to fuck other women and
not her and you thought that she wouldn't
feel a certain way and catch feelings? "

Me:" but why didn't she say anything? "

Him:" bro you made the rules and she

followed them because she thought that
maybe if you don't want her to see other
people then that means there might be
something between the two of you "

Me:" bro I didn't make her any promises "

Him:" you actually did with your actions but

not words how many girls have you fucked
since you met her ? "

Me:" many "

Him:" and did you set ground rules for them
too like you did for her? "

Me:" no I didn't "

Him:" did you punish her when she did

something you told her to not do? "

Me:" I did "

Him:" why her and not the others you were

just fucking too like her? "

Me:" because they didn't mean anything to

me "

Him:" and zama means something to you? "

Me:" I know hurt her when I told her about

ayanda but I really care about her she's a
good person "
Him:" yes you did hurt her because she
thought she might have a future with you
but then you tell her about this woman and
she accepts and decides to remove herself
from that situation so you can be with the
woman that you want but you're upset that
she's gone? "

Me:" I just didn't expect her to leave she

didn't have to leave "

Him:" so you expected the woman who

claims to love you watch you love someone
else? "

Me:" man I don't know "

Him:" brother she's respecting your choice

and decision and maybe you should do the
same "

Me:" I'm worried about her bro help me find

her "
Him:" and when you find her what are you
going to do? "

Me:" I don't know I just want to know if she's

safe "

Him:" if she wanted you to know she would

have told you that she's leaving and where
she's going just leave her brother and focus
on your relationship with what's her name
again?....yes ayanda. Focus on her cause I
don't think she would like hearing all this
talk about finding zama your housekeeper
the woman you were fucking "

Me:" look I'll send you her number but it

says it doesn't exist and her account
number I need you to track it and let me
know if she makes any transactions "

Him:" ok send them hold on your sister

wants to talk to you "
Me:" ok let me know how it goes "

Him:" sure bro "

Her:" sawubona bhuti scelo " { hello big

calls me that I smile.

Me:" my favourite woman and sister in the

world that I love more than anything "

Her:" your only sister you mean how are

Me:" I'm good how is the baby treating you?

Her:" this little person is the best she loves

Me:" you should exercise "

Her:" I do enough of that with mbuso....oops

Me:" hey now I don't need to hear all of that

Her:" and I love him too. You sound down

Me:" hang in there sis "

Her:" can't wait for you to be an uncle "

Me:" me too sis "

Her:" we'll talk later then I love you "

Me:" I love you too " she hangs up and I

shake my head and smile.

Ayanda:" who were you telling that you love

Me:" good morning ayanda did you sleep

Her:" I did who was it? "

Me:" I'm good too thanks for asking how's

Her:" I asked you a question scelo how's

Her:" I asked you a question scelo who was

Me:" my sister what would you like for

Her:" you're lying to me aren't you it wasn't

her give me your phone now! " she says
screaming at me and I look at her

Me:" why would I lie about that? "

Her:" because it's the way you said it! "

Me:" how I said it? how did I say it? "

Her:" like you're saying it to a lover " this
bitch is fucken crazy!

Me:" I don't have time for this so early in the

morning come one ayanda "

Her:" that's because you know it's the truth I

know men like you scelo "

Me:" men like me? "

Her:" yes the lying cheating and abusing

Me:" you dont know me like that so please

words get me worked up

Her:" or what scelo hmmm? "

Me:" nothing ayanda or nothing. Why don't

you something to eat in the meantime "

Her:" feeling guilty cause I caught you

Me:" for the last time ayanda I was talking

Her:" then give me your phone so I can see

for myself "

Me:" I don't fucken owe you an explanation

or prove to you who I was talking with but I'll

my phone and put it on loud speaker so she
will hear for herself it rings and mbuso
answers

Him:" bro? "

Me:" did I call you just now? "

Him:" yes why? "

Me:" did I talk to luh? "

Him:" yeah you did what's going on bro? "

Me:" nothing man we'll talk later " I hang up

Her:" whatever I know he covered for you "

Me:" you know what I don't care what you

Her:" truth hurts right? "

Me:" you wake up you don't ask me how I

am then you accuse me of talking to my
lover call me a lier a cheater and an abuser.
Have I lied to you cheated on you and most
importantly put my hands on you ayanda? "
Her:" but soon you will it's only a matter of
time! "

Me:" really? that's what you think of when

you look at me? "

Her:" don't act as if you're perfect and have

never done those things! "

Me:" I never said I was perfect and yes I

have done things I'm not proud of but I
haven't done anything to you for you to
condemn me like this. Is this how we are
going to start a relationship with you always
arguing and accusing me of stuff? "

Her:" I know what I heard and you can deny

it all you want I'm telling you how I feel and
you call it arguing? fine then I don't care "

Me:" we ayanda kuzokusiza ukuthi uma

ukhuluma nami uzehlise ukhulume nami
ngenhlonipho engikubonisa yona
siyezwana? " ( it will help you to know that
when you talk to meyou calm down and you
show me the same respect I show you
when I talk with you do we understand each
other? )

Her:" hmm cause if I don't I might find

myself in the hospital again or probably
dead " I shake my head frustrated cause
she hasn't heard anything I said to her.

Me:" you need help ayanda you need

someone to talk to who will help you get
through the trauma you experienced "

Her:" you want me to talk to a shrink

because you think I'm crazy? "

Me:" you know for someone who's a

business woman you sound very stupid
right now "
Her:" don't you dare call me that you son of
a bitch! " she picks up a glass centrepiece
on the table and throws it at me and I cover
my face and it hits my arm and it hurts. I
didn't expect her to do that because she did
it so fast.

Me:" don't you ever in your life call my

mother a bitch and hit me me with anything!
"

Her:" fuck you scelo I don't need this

bullshit! "

Me:" then what are you still doing in my

house? "

Her:" I don't need you you hear me I don't

fucken need you! "

Me:" I heard you I'll get one of my drivers to

take you home " I send Dan a message to
come
Her:" fine run away from your responsibility
"

Me:" what responsibility are you talking

about? "

Her:" me! "

Me:" you're not my respobility ayanda I

want to help you get better but how will I do
that if you keep accusing me and insulting
me? "

Her:" call it whatever you want but we both

know it's the truth "

Me:" you know what? Iv'e had enough of

this. Here is the number of the person I
arranged for you to see she will help you " I
send her the number.
Her:" is she one of your lovers are you
fucken her? "

Me:" are you still drunk ayanda? "

Her:" do I look like I'm drunk to you? "

Me:" yes do you hear the things that are

coming out of your mouth? "

Me:" you mean me telling you what

everyone else is afraid of telling you? " this
bitch is delusional

Me:" for the love of God woman stop it

okay?! stop it! "

Her:" fuck you scelo I don't need you I'm out

of here and don't ever fucken call me. Me
and you are done! "

Me:" we didn't start anything and I'm glad

you showed me your true colours before I
even began a relationship with you. Tell me
ayanda the woman I met at hospital who is
she where is she why did you change? "

Her:" you saw me at the club and talked to

me at the hospital twice and then you
assumed that you know me? "

Me:" I guess I was wrong "

Her:" this is me being real take it or leave it

"

Me:" there is no man who wants to be with

someone who belittles them shows them no
respect and accuses them of things "

Her:" then I guess you've met women who

let you walk all over them but not me rich or
not "

Me:" what does me being rich have to do

with anything we're talking about?. We can't
be together unless you change your attitude
and start showing me respect "

Her:" respect is earned you don't demand it

"

Me:" I never demanded anything from you

goodbye ayanda "

Her:" good riddance to bad rubbish "

Me:"you calling me rubbish?... your driver is

outside "

Her:" you are going to regret that you let

someone like me go "

Me:" no I wont " I get up and open the door

for her and she leaves gets in the car
doesn't even look at me and they leave.

How could I have been so wrong about

her? was it the morphine that was in her
blood that made her a nice person cause
she is right when she says I don't know her
but I really wanted to get to now her. I
thought she could be the one but within two
days she showed me who she really is and
I hope to God she's nothing like buhle. Did I
invite trouble in my house cause it sounds
like I did.

I have never been so insulted by one

person in my life and I still can't believe that
I kept my cool. Ayanda really knows how to
get under someone's skin and what
confuses me is if she's like this then why
did she allow her ex to abuse her like this
cause she sounds like she's the type that if
you hit her she'll hit you back. Is that how
her ex got her inline by abusing her? was
she even being abused?.

Is she taking out her anger and frustrations

out on me is this the way she's dealing with
things cause I will not accept being insulted
and accused. Her attitude is bad and she
needs to fix it. I look around my house and
it feels empty cause zama is gone. There is
no smell of her perfume the smell of food
and it feels like she took all the warmth from
the house and left with it and I don't know
where she is.
CHAPTER 28.

MBUSO.

I have no idea who this man is who claims

that lungi is his and she was promised to
him cause I know for sure that I killed the
man that was promised lungi. I know cause
he confessed before I killed him. I made
sure I killed the right person now this one
who claims lungi is his I have no idea who
he is and what he wants exactly where was
he at all this time and why was he quiet.
He decides to show himself now when I
think all of this is going to be over soon for
lungi and she will live her life in peace
knowing that everyone who meant her harm
is dead but now there's this unknown
person and I don't recognise his voice to
have an idea who he might be. Did buhle
promise her to someone else too or did
sipho and his wife make a deal of their own
and they were going to double cross the
guy I killed and make their own money fuck
these people! we have to get answers soon
and kill them.We can't wait for lungi to give
birth cause by then how many more people
will come forward and threaten her life? it's
better if we get answers now and deal with
everyone.

Mapholoba:"are you sure that you dont

know who that man is? "

Me:" I have no idea and I know I killed the

right person "
Him:" sipho better have not promised my
daughter to someone else that we don't
know about "

Me:" I think he made a deal of his own and

now the person is here to cliam what he
thinks is his "

Him:" but why come forward now where

was he? "

Me:" I think he was trying to reach sipho but

when he couldn't get hold of him he decides
to call lungi "

Him:" but where did he get her numbers? "

Me:" lungi doesn't know him too what if it's

someone close and we don't know who he

Him:" did you call scelo? "

Me:" I will deal with this lungi is going to be

Me:" I never told them the name of the guy "

Him:" but you told them the details one of

Him:" yes apparently they were going to

have her as their slave but then you came

Me:" I'm not afraid of him let them all come

Him:" I know you have your own team but

Me:" you will keep me posted "

Him:' I will brother " he hangs up and I

shake my head

Mapholoba:" what did he say? " I tell him

well except for the part that sbu wants me
to share lungi with him and have a
threesome like we used to which is never
going to happen.

Him:" so we get the brother and kill him "

me:" when I was tracking the guy there was

no mention of a brother "

Him:" maybe he's partenal or maternal

brother they didn't live together or close or
maybe they didn't want people to know they
are related "

Me:" maybe I was thinking that it's time we

got the mazibuko'z all together "

Him:" victor is coming on the weekend he

has to be here too "

Me:" he needs to get closure "

Him:" I need you to focus on luh and leave

everything to us "

Me:" but...." the door opens

Sicelo:" dad is right I'll deal with whoever

CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 28.

LUNGI.

Dad and mbuso left after having breakfast

and I think they are trying to find out who
was that man that claims I'm his and at this
point I just want all of this to be over I want
buhle and her parents out of my life and I
don't care what they do with them cause I
feel like it they are kept alive I'm always
going to have a target on my back and I'll
have to look over my shoulder everytime.

I'm laying on the couch and reading a

magazine about parenting when my brother
walks in looking like he did not sleep. He
stops when he sees me and comes and sits
next to me and he sighs deeply like he has
the weight of the world on his shoulders.

Me:" are you okay? " we speak at the same

time

Him:" I'm sorry " we look at each other and

we both smile then laugh

Me:" I'm not mad at you I'm just worried

about you cause you don't look like yourself
"

Him:" I'm sorry about yesterday I didn't

mean to snap at you "
Me:" it's water under the brigde come and
let me us make something to eat "

Him:" thank you sis I'm hungry. Where's

Me:" she left looking all good and said

something about meeting someone for a
date "

Him:" she's dating "

Me:" of course she is she's still young "

Him:" I wonder who "

Me:" as long as she's happy I'm good "

Him:" what do you want to eat? "

Me:" chicken mayo sandwich please but
can I have milk and cookies first? " he looks
at me and smiles

Him:" you know when you were little you

used to love cookies and milk you'll take my
hand and lead me to the cookie jar mom
used to have and it was full chocolate chip
cookies then I'll give you a glass of milk and
you dip the cookie and say you want one "
he smiles " I used to hate it at first but then
it grew on me and it was something we did
almost everyday....it's funny cause I had
forgetten that memory until now " I smile
wipe my tears off

Me:" I wish I had that memory " he takes my

hand

Him:" I promise you that I'll do it with your

kids and you'll do it with my kids and when
one of us needs to talk we'll do that only the
two of us will know "
Me:" I promise too thank you for giving me
that "

Him:" no thank you for being the light we

didn't know we needed until you came "

Me:" you're going to make me cry " we hug

Him:" you've always been a cry baby "

Dad:" just like her mom " dad say with a

smile on his face and mbuso is smiling too

Sicelo:" I'm sorry dad I'm sorry brother for

Dad:" it's fine "

Mbuso:" no apologies needed "

Me:" all my favourite men in one room and

they all get along I'm so lucky "
Dad:" I'm your only favourite man "

Me:" yes you are dad " I wink at mbuso

Dad:" I saw that " we all laugh.

Me:" anyone else hungry? "

Mbuso:" you're not cooking I'll cook "

Me:" I don't wanna die "

Him:" baby I've never cooked for you so let

me show you what my mama taught me "

Me:" oooh yes sir " scelo gives me my

cookies and milk and they have beer and
they start talking about soccer and I just
watch them and again I'm thankful to have
all of them because I know they'll die for me
and I'll die for them too.
Mah:" wow some of us are planning a
wedding and the rest of you are chilling and
having fun no stress or anything "

Preston:" Imagine the day we

had...stressful big brother can I have a

sandwich "

Mah:" does he know how to make it " she

looks like she's going to get sick and we all

Preston:" you lived in an orphanage? " he
asks shocked

Dad:" because you'll tell us when you're

dad a manly hug and we laugh.

Mah:" who knew this house would be filled

with so much love and laughter?...God is

Us:" Amen " we say at the same time then

Me:" how is everything coming along with

Preston:" sis prepare to be shocked " he

says moving his head with each word then
snaps his fingers.
Me:" I can't wait...when is my fitting for the
dress "

Mah:" we'll let you know don't worry "

Sicelo:" and the colours for the wedding? "

Preston:" I'm thinking green suits " he says

laughing

Mbuso:" hell no! there's no way I'm going to

be wearing a green suit on my wedding day
" he says panicking and we all laugh at him

Preston:" I'm just pulling your leg don't

worry we're all gonna be handsome
including dad here " he says smiling and
dad shakes his head.

Me:" dad can we have a wedding after I've

given birth "
Him:" no! I had you when I was married and

Me:" but I don't want to look fat "

Mbuso:" baby you have a very...excuse me

Dad:" hmmm " he says.

Preston ends up helping sicelo cook a full

meal and it smells devine but I can't help
craving for the something.

Me:" uhm preston can you make me

toasted bagels with cream cheese and
pickles like I want the whole jar of sweet
and sour pickles " everyone goes silent

Sicelo:" wow " then they laugh

Mbuso:" don't worry baby I'll go and get
them "

Me:" no don't leave mah can you send sis

Mah:" pregnancy will show you flames I'll

send nontobeko " and right at that moment
she comes to the kitchen

Nontobeko:" Sir the security says there's a

woman outside to see you and they want to
know if they can let her in " she says
looking at scelo

Sicelo:" me? "

Her:" yes sir "

CHAPTER 29.

MBUSO.

It's early the early hours of the morning and

she's sleeping and I don't want to wake her
up but I have to cause we need to talk I
wanted to talk to her but she fell asleep the
moment she got in bed. I miss us being
alone at our house but for now this will do
cause I have to keep her protected but I
have to go and I don't know how she's
going to take it. I look at the time and it's 2
am and by 3 I'm suppose to leave and I
don't know when I'll come back.

Me:" baby....love? " I brush her face and

she sighs and smiles I keep brushing her
face and she doesn't wake up so I brush my
beared on her face and she moves her face
frowning and I almost laugh

Her:" boo? "

Me:" wake up baby we need to talk " she

opens her eyes and looks at me

was going to share you with his brother but
then I killed him and now he wants you "

Her:" but how did he find out it was you I

mean he could have been killed by
anyone? "

Me:" I think one of my friends betrayed me

cause they are the only people who knew
excluding your uncle father and brother "

Her:" who can we trust mbuso when people

close to us keep betraying us? "

Me:" I'm going to end all of it cause I'm sick

and tired of all the lies and people showing.
I'm done baby I just want some peace and
quiet "
Her:" but do you have to go? "

Me:" I have to go and eliminate every threat

out there that wants to take my happiness
away. No one is going to take you away
from me lungi even if it means I have to kill
everyone out there to make the world a
safe and better place for you then that's
what I would do. You were made for me

kiss her all over her face then give her a
light kiss on her lips. Then lay her on the
bed again and look at her lovely stomach
and kiss it then wipe tears off her eyes take
my phone then go. I don't look back cause
seeing her crying breaks my heart and I
might decide not too go.

Her:" mbuso? "

Me:" please don't tell me not to go " I hear

her getting up then she looks for something
then she comes towards me

Her:" turn around and look at me " I turn. "

when we went shopping for groceries with

jewellery shop and I told them that I had
gotten engaged and I wanted them to make
something special for you so here it is " I

bronze silver and gold and I love it.

then close the door and stand behind it and
listen to her crying softly then she stops and
goes to bed.

Sicelo:" is she okay? "

Me:" yeah she will be she gave me this "

Mmapholoba:" it looks nice "

Sicelo:" you're officially off the market "

Me:" I was off the day she got my heart "

Sicelo:" are you sure you want to do this

alone? "

Me:" Bonga will be with me and sbu said he

will tag along "

Sicelo:" I should be there with you "

Me:" I need you here to watch over
everyone and help dad plus you need to
sort out this issue you have with ayanda "

Mapholoba:" mbuso is right you're not in the

right frame of mind and you might get
yourself hurt "

Sicelo:" I know "

Me:" I need all of you to make sure luh and

the baby are okay and she's not stressed
and worried about me cause if we all leave
she will not cope "

Mapholoba:" I'm giving you two weeks if

you don't come I'm taking your dad with me
and we're coming to get them "

Me:" don't worry dad I'll be back "

Sicelo:" keep in contact everyday brother

just like we talked "
Me:" I will brother let me go "

Me:" oh brother I almost forgot there's a

package that is going to come tomorrow
and I need you take good care of it "

Sicelo:" what is it? "

Me:" you'll see it "

Him:" ok brother good luck "

Mapholoba:" may your ancerstors be by

your side and my God protect you and bring
you back to my daughter "

Me:" thank you mapholoba " we hug then I

get in my car and go to my house where
bonga and sbu are at. We do our daily ritual
when we go to hunt and we get done.

Me:" you ready guys "

Sibusiso:" I missed this lets go! "

Bonga:" hell yes " We get in the car head to

where the helicopter is going to pick us up
and then head to Port Elizabeth.

AYANDA.

I can't let scelo go just like that he's the one

for me I know that but I have to keep myself
in line and try to behave so we can have a
relationship. I didn't expect my other side
will come out this soon I thought I could it
hidden but there's something about him that
makes me feel like I don't have to pretend.
Why should I be this person everyone
expects me to be when I know this is the
real me cause even my friends know me
the real me.
I have tried to change and to tone it down
but damn I can't help myself scelo made a
promise to me and said he's all in so he
better keep his promise cause I'm not going
anywhere even if it means I have to
pretend. When I googled I found out that
they are a very close and very private
family there's not alot about them
personally but only business stuff and so
when I found out that he is rich and his
family is rich too I had to come and try to
convince him that we have to be together.

All I have to do is to be this sweet yaya he

remembers then get him to fall inlove with
me sleep with him and get pregnant then he
will have no choice but to marry me. I have
to get pregnant and have his kids then I
know I'll be set for life cause there's no way
I'm going to be poor again not when I have
found myself a ticket to get out of this life. I
know he will help me build my bakery to
they way I want and he'll use his
connections to get me tenders and he'll give
me money as his wife but first I have to play
nice to his sister cause I saw that he is very
fond of her and loves her and if she doesn't
like me then I doubt he will want to be with
me.

I have to be her best friend and start

playing nice cause I'm not going to lose
scelo to anyone that I know and I'll make
sure I remove every threat there is standing
in my way. Tshepo saw the real me and he
told me a couple of times to change the
way I speak to him and my attitude but I
didn't listen and that's when he started
getting physical with me and karabo warned
me to change my ways or else I will get
introuble and he did keep to his word and
ended me in hospital.

I know scelo is a powerful man and he will

sort tshepo out because he will do anything
to make me happy he has too what he felt
for me can't just disappear like he it was
never there. The only way I will bring that
side out of him again is for me to be
submissive to him then he won't know what
hit him. God give me the strength to keep
my mouth shut and be nice so all these
people here will like me.

I'm on my way to the kitchen when I hear

them talking so I listen to them as they talk
about mbuso leaving for somewhere and
scelo is going to stay behind but what is
that package that is coming tomorrow that
mbuso wants scelo to take good care off?
hmmm I wonder or maybe he bought lungi
something. Mbuso scares me and I think he
was going to see through my bullshit but
now that he is not here I have to make sure
I play my cards right and make scelo fall
inlove with me before mbuso comes back.

I don't know how lungi got a man like

mbuso cause she looks like she's a weak
person and she's too soft for my liking and
mbuso is scary the man hardly smiles but
wait maybe I have to be like lungi too so
scelo will believe that I have changed.
Great idea ayanda I smile to myself as I go
back to the guest bedroom that I'm using for
now operation get scelo back starts when I
wake up.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 29.

LUNGI.

When I get to the kitchen everyone is

awake including our not invited guest I'm
surprised to see my brother here cause I
thought he would have left with mbuso but
he is here and if he's here who did mbuso
leave with?.

Me:" good morning " I sit down

Them:" good morning luh "

Nonto:" can I make you something sis luh "

Me:" just yoghurt and muesli thanks nonto "

Dad:" are you feeling okay baby "

Me:" I'm fine dad " I keep quiet take my

food and eat and I feel all eyes on me.

Mah:" Luh? "

Me:" mah I'm fine actually I'm not. Why did

mbuso go alone to face that man wherever
he is? "

Sicelo:" I didn't go with him cause I have to

make sure that everyone in this house is
safe and he has bonga and his other friend
sbu so don't worry about him "

Me:" how could I not worry scelo I love him

and now he's gone to look for someone
who wants to hurt me I'm always putting his
life indanger and what if he doesn't come
back to me and they kill him? "

Brother:" mbuso is one tough man luh and

he will make sure that he comes back to
you no matter what I wouldn't have stayed
behind knowing that he might not come
back. Don't worry sis "

Preston:" and remember you're on bed rest

and we don't want to upset the baby "

Me:" I know "

Dad:" he's got this baby don't worry okay? "

Me:" ok daddy "

Sicelo:" cookies and milk? "

Me:" maybe later "

Him:" are you sure? "

Ayanda:" I would love some " I ignore her

Me:" I am " I give him a half smile he gets

up and comes to me and takes my hand.

Him:" he has a tracker on him we know his

every move and should anything happen
we will immediately know "

Me:" thank you " he kisses my forehead

then goes back to his seat.

Ayanda:" uhm can I have everyone's

attention? " we all look at her. " I just
wanted to apologise for my behaviour last
night I didn't mean to disrespect anyone or
make anyone feel uncomfortable "

Mah:" apology accepted "

Ayanda:" and I'm sorry baba for
disrespecting you and your house "

Dad:" hmmm "

Ayanda:" now that you have accepted my

apology I would like to cook lunch for you to
show how sorry I am and the housekeepers
can focus on other things while I cook for
you "

Me:" we don't trust you and you're never

ever going to cook for us! "

Sicelo:" you want to poison and kill all of

us? "

Ayanda:" what? no I'm just trying to

apologise for my behaviour scelo! "

Me:" what changed? "

Her:" nothing I just like scelo very much and
I want us to fix things "

Sicelo:" you think you can just decide that

I'll just forgive you and we'll magically fix
things when you've disrespected me in my
father's house and called me names no one
has ever said and you show up here and
you think I'll just forget about it? "

Ayanda:" scelo I'm sorry okay I don't now

what changed or what happend to me
please give me another chance to be your
girlfriend and you'll see that I'll make a good
wife and mother to your kids "

Sicelo:" I'm going to say this one last time

and you better get that through that fucked
up head of yours. Nothing and I mean
nothing between us is ever going to happen
between us ayanda it ended before it even
began. Accept it and move on with your life
"
Ayanda:" no! no!no!no! " she bangs the
table hard shocking everyone

Mah:" why are you banging the table? "

Me:" you said you googled us right ayanda?

"

Her:" yes I did "

Me:" why? "

Her:" because I wanted to find out more

about scelo? "

Me:" before or after you guys ended things?

"

Her:" after okay! "

Me:" and what did you find out exactly? "

Her:" that you guys are a private family and
you have many businesses and you're all
rich "

Preston:" AH HA! "

Me:" so that's the real reason you're here

right? "

Her:" uhhh yes I mean no! how dare you

ask me that? "

Me:" lets cut the bullshit ayanda! stop this

friendly looking confused girl act. I don't
know you personally but I can read a
person and you smell like bad news there's
something sinnister about you and it smells

Ayanda:" I don't know what you're talking

about okay I'm not a bad person! "
Me:" I hear you but you need something

real reason you're here? "

Ayanda:" what? me? what would I need

Dad:" same thing that brought you here "

Dad:" asilethi izintombi lana emzini kababa

Ayanda:" but here I am ready to be scelo

Her:" well I love money more than you scelo

Dad:" bring me my check book scelo "

Ayanda:" don't laugh at me! "

Me:" we are laughing at the amount of

Preston:" do you know how hard you have

to work and how many years you have to
work to make and get that kind of money? "

Her:" I don't care that's my price! "

Dad:" then that's what you'll get "

Sicelo:" here it is dad "

Dad:" do you want a check or you want me

to transfer the money? "

Her:" no I want the check cause transfering

questions and it will take days so it's better I
take the check " she says very excited

Preston:" I'm gonna be sick! "

Dad:" check it is "

Nonto:" bhut scelo frank is here to see you "

Sicelo:" tell him to come in " she leaves

Frank:" I locked her in the car cause she

Ayanda:" uhm excuse me who is he talking

asks scelo mad

Preston:" she's none of your business "

Me:" are you talking about zama frank? "

Him:" yes madam " I still hate that name

Sicelo:" I fucken love your mbuso " he says

and hugs me then leaves us in the kitchen
and frank follows him.

Me:" so mbuso asked frank to go look for

Ayanda:" who is this zama woman you're

Mah:" the one who's hopefully going to be
our bride she has scelo's heart "

Ayanda:" what?! hell no scelo is mine and

Dad:" no the money is yours and here it is "

she takes the check and looks at it and
screams smiling

Her:" oh my God! oh my God! Oh my God!

Dad:" now take your backs and get the fuck

off my property and you better not set foot
here ever again or contact my son. Do you

Her:" I hear you sir "

Dad:"if you try to contact any member of my
family or find you or hear that you were
anywhere close to them you will be sorry! "

Her:" I I hear you sir I will go now " she

stammers takes her check and goes to the
guest bedroom to pack her things.

Me:" I don't trust her "

Mah:" nonto go and check and see if she

doesn't steal anything of ours " she leaves.

Me:" dad did you really just give her a

million rands? "

Dad:" that girl reminds of thuli and if her

surname wasn't maseko I would swear
she's thuli daughter cause the way she
behaves...she's obsessed with scelo "

Me:" was thuli obsessed with you dad? "

Dad:' not that I know of cause the only
woman who had my heart and eyes was
your mother " hmmmm.

Scelo walks in with a woman and she looks

like she has been crying even though her
face is facing down cause she keeps wiping
her tears off. My brother looks like he is
worried and I wonder what's going on
between them. She lifts her head and she's
a beautiful full curvy woman she looks at us
and our eyes connect and she offers me a
side smile and I give her my full one.

Sicelo:" ah mah and dad you remember

zama. Zama this is my sister lungi you
haven't met and this is preston my adopted
brother guys this is Zama Shange the
woman I want to build a future with "

Me:" Hi zama nice to meet you "

Her:" sanibonani baba nawe aunty hi
Preston hi lungi nice to finally meet you. I
have heard so much about you "

Me:" nice things I hope and call me luh "

she smiles hmmm I can see why my
brother would like her

Ayanda:" oh this is the trash you left me

for? "

Sicelo:" please go ayanda! " zama looks at

scelo hurt and she takes a step away from
him then scelo takes her hand

Ayanda:" No I'm not going anywhere! you

want me gone so you can be with her? "

Sicelo:" I'm giving you one last chance

ayanda be gone! "

Her:" or what scelo what will you do to me?

"
Sicelo:" I will kill you right here right now
and no one I mean no one will ever find
your body! " he says taking out his gun and
pointing it to her head and I see her shaking
looking scared

Her:" you wouldn't dare shoot me infront of

everyone " she says smiling my God who
smiles when they have a gun pointed at
them?

Sicelo:" ayanda I told you to stop pushing

me but you just keep doing it you want me
to prove it that I'll shhot you infront of
everyone then I will " he cocks his gun and
is about to pull the trigger and I stand there
shocked thinking my brother is really going
to shoot ayanda.

Ayanda:" you are a weak man scelo weak!.

That is why you can't handle a strong
woman like me and then run to this pathetic
looking thing you call a woman you want to
build a future with "

Mah:" this girl doesn't ever know when to

stop shut up ayanda! " she shakes her head
frustrated

Me:" just leave ayanda leave us in peace

please! "

Ayanda:" oh shut the hell up lungi I'm not

talking to you "

Me:" don't piss me off ayanda you will not

talk to my brother that way and call him
weak! "

Ayanda:" well he is a weak stupid confused

little bo......" she doesn't get to finsh what
she was going to say cause zama comes
and gives her a hot full bitch slap on her
face and that shuts her up....wow!
Preston:" yes girl! oh she deserved it ! "

Zama:" never in your life will you call him

weak or any other kind of name. I gave you
a chance to have the love of this wonderful
man and you blew it! When he told me
about you I respected his decision and left
him cause that's what I thought his heart is
at and yes it hurt me when he told me about
another woman but I told myself that he
saw something in her and knew that his
happiness is with her but obviously it
wasn't".

Ayanda:" I was his first choice and he left

you for me and he will again. How does it
feel to know that you were his second
choice not first? "

Sicelo:" she was never my second choice

because I always made sure she was taken
care of and had everything she needed her
happiness was my first priority and yes I did
many stupid things cause I took her for
granted and you coming into my life was a
wake up call I didn't know I needed. You
see ayanda there are many things I have
done in my life horrible things but I rarely
regret them but you are the greatest
mistake I have ever made and I regret
knowing you and allowing you to come into
my life "

Ayanda:' you will regret this scelo I swear

you will "

Sicelo:" that is if you're still alive "

Ayanda:" you know what I am out of here

stay with this ugly fat bitch! "

Sicelo:" be gone but always know that I'll

always be watching and one step ahead of
you one wrong move I'll kill karabo then lilly
and finally you! "
Dad:" you got your money now go ayanda
while we're still asking you "

Ayanda:" peasants! " she takes her bags

and leaves the house

Me:" wow! did you ask frank to take her to

the taxis? "

Sicelo:" he's waiting for her "

Me:" so she's just going to go just like that?

"

Dad:" she'll be back and cause problems for

you seun deal with her cause I see you
having the same problems I had with your
mother and we don't want history to repeat
itself "

Sicelo:" I'm on it dad! "

Me:" yoh what a day zama I'm sure you
want to freshen up let me show you your
room and I'm hungry "

Sicelo:" I need to talk with zama "

Me:" let her freshen up eat and rest then

you guys will talk find out where mbuso is
and tell him to call me " I take her hand and
we go.
CHAPTER 30.

SICELO.

I follow luh and zama to the guest bedroom

cause I really want to talk to her but I don't
think she wants to hear anything from me.
She doesn't deserve the humilation I put
her through I didn't stop her when she left
me in the kitchen and I wish I could change
that moment. I will regret not stopping her
or running after her they get inside and luh
shows her the bathroom and she takes her
bag gets inside and closes the door and
she still won't look at me cause I
disappointed her and I feel disappointed at
myself too.

Me:" luh can we talk? "

Her:" sure what is wrong? "

Me:" I messed up "

Her:" yeah I think you did even though I

don't really know what's going on but I can
see that she's hurt You hurt her "

Me:" I don't even though where to start or

what to say "

Her:" you start by apologizing to her and

then you listen to her when she says
something cause there's alot I think she's
going to say "
Me:" but what if she doesn't want to listen to
what I have to say "

Her:" don't get me wrong brother but from

what I picked up she used to listen to you
alot and maybe now it's time for you to
listen to her "

Me:" how will I talk to her when she won't

even look at me? "

Her:" you beg her "

Me:" I messed up I really fucked up and

hurt her "

Her:" yeah you did brother no woman wants

to feel like she's someone's else's second
choice and I think zama did cause you
chose ayanda over her "
Me:" but she's not my second choice she
never was "

Her:" did you tell her that and make her feel
like she's the only one? "

Me:" no I never did "

Her:" then how do you think she felt when

you chose ayanda? "

Me:" hurt "

Her:" you hurt her "

Me:" how did you do it? "

Her:" do what? "

me:" forgive mbuso " she smiles

Her:" I forgave him cause I loved him and

my love for him over powered all the bad
things he did to me I chose to focus on the
good things he did I just want him to come
back to me "

Me:" He is coming back sis "

Her:" I know ".

Me:" I wanted to ask you if you could

borrow me the keys to your house I want to
talk with her cause we need to be alone so
we can properly talk "

Her:" hmmm don't use sex to get her to

forgive you scelo the keys are in the kitchen
I think " she giggles and I am planning to do
that too

Me:" I won't sis "

Her:" you can always win her body but

before that you have to win her mind first "
Me:" How do I do that? "

Her:" she has to trust you with her heart

again and believe that you won't hurt her
again "

Me:" thank you sis "

Her:" I'm always here for you brother "

zama opens the door and she looks so
beautiful with how did I not see her?. She
goes to sit next to luh like she seeks
protection from her and I almost laugh but it
makes me happy to see that she trusts my
sister even though she has just met her.

Me:" come I want to take you somewhere

so we can talk "

Zama:" I'm not going anywhere with you "

she says with a little bit of attitude and I fold
my arms and look at her
Me:" Zah. Now! "

Zah;" I'm done following your rules scelo I'm

done ". I look at luh to give us some space

Her:" I think I'm going to eat help me up

scelo "

Zah:" I'll help you " she helps her get up

then luh gives me an intimidating look she
thinks but it's cute and I laugh.

Her:" don't make her do something she

doesn't want to do cause you'll push her
away and you don't want that " she closes
the door after shee leaves and I sigh and
look at zah

Me:" I really want to have a talk with you but

I can't do that here with everyone around "
Zah:" you mean you can't fuck me to
submission cause everyone in the house
will hear? "

Me:" that too but we have to talk first before

you let me fuck you "

Zah:" I don't want you to use me anymore

sicelo I can't " she snifs.

Me:" lets go to luh's and mbuso's house so

you can scream at me all you like and throw
things at me "

Zah:" I won't do that "

Me:" I know you won't but if it will make you

feel better "

Her:" no it will hurt me more if I hurt you "

Me:" lets go zah....please "

Her:" I'm scared of what you'll do to me
when we're alone "

Me:" I won't hurt you "

Her:" you're angry scelo and I know how

you get "

Me:" I promise you I won't hurt you "

Her:" but you did "

Me:" I know and I want to make it right " I

sigh

Her:" ok "

Me:" thank you come " I take her hand we

leave using the back door cause I know my
aunt will shout at me for wanting to be
alone with zama. We get in my car and I
drive to mbuso's place and she's looking
outside the window.
Me:" I'm sorry I hurt you zah I shouldn't
have left you and ran to ayanda "

Her:" what happemd between you two? "

Me:" she's not what I thought she was "

Her:" If she was the person you thought she

was would I be here right now? "

Me:".......I thought she would be like you "

Her:" you wanted someone else to be like

me but not me?....wow "

Me:" I didn't know it at that time "

Her:" do you love her? "

Me:" I don't love her "

Her:" but you told me about her you were
so sure she's the one and now she's not
what happend? "

Me:" I saw her at the club and I liked her

payed for her bill then asked mark to take
them home then I get a call that her
boyfriend is beating her up and we get
there take her to the hospital.... she looked
bad "

Her:" so the nights you came late and

would wake me up and fuck me...hurt me
were the nights you went to see her? "

Me:" yes "

Her:" then what? you declared your undying

love for her? "

Me:" no I didn't I told her I wanted to get to

know her and she should give me us a
chance. She was sweet and I was excited
but then we went to standerton and when I
came back I went to see her at her bakery
and she was kinda mad. I took her out for
late lunch then her ex called and she
freaked out "

Her:" I would too "

Me:" then I took her to her friends place and

I wanted to be there for her but she asked
to be alone and then she called that time
when you were telling me about how you
feel "

Her:" I wish I didn't. I wish I never said

anything then what happend? "

Me:" she started acting crazy calling all

sorts of names threw that centrepiece you
love at me and it broke she hurt my arm "

Her:" wow but she gets to leave with a

million rands "
Me:" she's not going to get it "

Her:" how ? "

Me:" you don't come to my house and

disrespect my father and his whole family
she's going to pay "

Her:" I wish I never told you I love you " she

said love so I still have a chance.

Me:" I wish you could have told me earlier "

Her:" why am I here scelo cause you didn't

come looking for me? "

Me:" I asked mbuso to help you look for you

I asked him to track you down "

Her:" I knew that you might reject what I

feel for you and when my exact fear came
true and happend it killed me "
Me:" I didn't reject how you feel for me "

Her:" you never said anything either "

Me:" my biggest mistake I took you for

granted and I'm sorry "

Her:" I felt so vunlerable opening up to you

and stupid after " I open the gate and drive
in and close it then look at zah.

Me:" I have known you since you were 19

was me doing that very same thing I was
trying to protect you from and I'm sorry " I
get out of the car and open her door and
take her hand and lead her to the house.

Me:" are you hungry? "

Her:" no " I take bottles of water and give

her one.

Me:" You did everything I asked you to do

without questioning it "

Her:" cause you promised to protect me

always "

Me:" I brought women and fucked them

while you were "

Her:" it hurt me everytime "

Me:" and I was selfish because I didn't care
about how you would feel I just did cause it
was my house and I called the rules "

Her:" then you would ask me to make them

breakfast and clean all your messes and
then I would still welcome you in my body
and let you have me cause I thought just
maybe one day you will see that I'm here I
could be the woman you're searching for "

Me:" you are that woman zah I want a

future with you. I know it took me long well
it took ayanda to open my eyes to see what
a fool I have been to you "

Her:" when you look at me sicelo what do

you see? "

Me:" I never should have walked away from

you you gave me peace and I took it for
granted you made my house a home and I
don't think I can forgive myself for the ways
I used you and I'm sorry. You always put
my needs first before yours you are the one
I always confide in cause I know my secrets
are safe with you. I trust you with my life "
fuck this is hard.

Me:" when I look at you I see a woman who

is strong selfless puts people's needs first
before hers even happiness. I see a woman
who has always been there for me you
comfort me you take all my frustrations that
I take out on you and you have never once
complained. You always make sure that me
and my house we're taken care of I look this
good cause it's because of you. "

Her:" no you do that you work hard so your

home has everything you need "

Me:" my house is not a home without you

when you left you took the warmth I always
feel when I open the door and get in. I
always look forward to going home cause I
know you're there waiting for me and I need
you back home cause it is not the same
without you. I need you back in my life
zama cause without you I'm just lost "

Her:" I'm scared sicelo what if you meet

another beautiful girl and think she's the
one? "

Me:" I was stupid then and my eyes were

closed I've learned my lesson and I know
now what they mean when they say ' you
never what you have until it is gone " I don't
want to lose you again because of my
stupidness "

Her:" then why do I feel like I'm your second

choice cause if things did work out with you
and ayanda I would be still heartbroken "

Me:" maybe things happend this way so I

can see that you are what I need in my life
the woman I want to spend the rest of my
life with...." I get on both ny kness and take
her hands in mine and look at her. " I took
me long to see it but I think I fell inlove with
you the day you held me as I cried and told
you I have found my sister. Do you
remember what you said to me? "

Her:" no.... "

Me:" you said I have now found the missing

piece that was missing so I can now stop

from that day and it scared me cause I
started to feel things I didn't want to admit "

Her:" I understand "

Me:" no zah you don't I tried to run away

from the love I feel for you cause it scares

CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 30

SICELO.

When she’s done taking her clothes off I

take her hand and bring her body close to
mine and look at her beautiful curves and
run my hands on her ass and it jiggles. Her
body is so warm I lead her upstairs to the
guest bedroom. This house is not yet fully
furnished and I’m wondering when is luh
going to furnish this whole house. I look at
Zah and she looks like she’s scared that I
might her and I don’t blame her cause she
knows I can get rough and lose focus cause
I have done that before.

Me:“ I won’t hurt you baby ”

Her:“ don’t make that promise scelo ”

Me:“ I want you to stop taking pills ”

Her:“ scelo you don’t mean that ”

Me:“ I do I want to get you to have my

babies ” she shakes her head

Her:“ I’ll think about it ” then she laughs

Me:“ you have no choice ”

Her:” there is no bed here “

Me:” we don’t need a bed I’m going to fuck

you on the floor “ she gasps

Her:” well at least there’s a carpet on the

floor

Me: “wait here I’m coming “ I go to luh’s

bedroom and take the fleece blanket on the
bed then go to the living room take my belt
off my pants and pick up her underwear
and take it with me then come back and lay
the blanket on the floor look at zah then
take her hand and lay her down on the
blanket and she opens her legs for me and
I see that sweet glistening juice and my
mouth begs me to bury my face and eat
that sweet juice I can smell her arousal her
scent calling me to take her and makes my
mind lose all rational thought. I bring my
body down on top of hers and kiss her
deeply my cock is hard and throbbing.

Me:” I’m going to devour you and tear that

pussy up “ she licks her lips and I groan. I
insert my two fingers deep into her pussy
and feel all that wetness with my fingers
and finger fuck her kissing her deeply and
she makes those sweet noises that I love.
She spreads her legs wide making my
fingers go deep into her.
She takes my dick and grasps it and
strokes it hard smearing that pre-cum all
over my dick and I can’t wait any longer I
have to be inside her. I keep kissing her full
plum lips then put pressure on her clit with
my thumb and she starts to shake and I
know she’s going to come at any moment

Me:” don’t hold back baby…..come for me “

I pump my fingers fast and deep into her
and she throws her head back and screams
calling my name and gripping my fingers in
her tight snatch. I keep finger fucking her
until she comes down from her high.

Me:” open your mouth and give me your

hands” she does and looks at me flushed
then I take her underwear and put it in her
mouth gagging her then take the belt and
bind her hands tight with it. “ does it hurt? “
she shakes her head no
Me:” raise your hands over head “ she does
and that makes her breasts to raise up. My
mouth waters just looking at them and
seeing those dark nipples. I bring my head
down and suck them and she sighs and I
wonder what they would taste like if she
was pregnant and milk coming out of them
my dick gets really hard when I think that.

I take my dick and point it to her entrance

and look at her and her eyes are shut
mouth tightly shut. I grab her legs and ram
into her hard and impale her deeply and
she tries to scream but she really can’t
cause her underwear is making hard and I
groan and her muscles contract tightening
the grip on my dick and I thrust into her
again then I move my hands from her hips
and grab her ass cheeks and spread them
wide and fuck the shit out of her have no
mercy on her pussy.
I bring my head down and take her nipple
into my mouth and suck on it then bite it
hard and she groans then do it again to her
other nipple then she uses her elbows to
tap my shoulder and I look at her and see
spit drooling from her mouth to her neck
and I lick it them take her mouth into mine
and kiss her lips with her underwear still in
her mouth and her smell on the underwear
drives me fucken crazy. I keep thrusting
into her hard looking at her face and she
looks like she’s struggling to breath and that
my cock swells hard in her.

Me:” can you breath baby? “ she nods we

are sweating like we have just got out of the
shower and it’s damn hot outside and
having sex while the weather is hot is so
fucken amazing.

I move my upper body off of her and look at

her pussy then pull my dick out then take it
into my hand and hit her clit with it a few
times then slip the head in again and fuck
her with it and her pussy contracts and she
moves her hips fast I pull it out again then
thrust deep into her and hit her cervix and
she groans loud and then she comes and
squirts all over me. She has never done
that before and it’s fucken sexy

Me:” OH baby….fuck yes “ I pull out the

underwear from her mouth and it’s wet and
I hear her sweet noises as she’s screaming
and I fuck her through her orgasm watching
her face and bite her neck leaving a mark
there.

Her:” Oh God OHHHH! “

Me:“ you look so fucken beautiful baby you

ready to come again? ”

Her:“ yes I am ” I pull out my dick out from

her warm snatch and she moans. I kneel
between her thighs then move backwards
then bury my face on her pussy and
worship it like it deserves. She grabs my
head grips her thighs on my face tight then
she fucks it and I fucken love it.

I tongue fuck her then move my hands and

grip her waist so she won’t be able to move
her hips and play with her clit using my
thumb while still eaten her and she moans
and screams loud and comes again.

Me:“ get up and turn around ” I help her get

up then unfasten the belt on her hands.

Me:“ get on your knees face down then give

me your hands “ she does then I take her
hands and fasten the belt not too tight again
and they stay put on her back.

I spread her ass cheeks and see that round

pink rim of her ass and for a moment I think
of getting my dick in there but I know it will
hurt her cause I haven’t prepared her for
that but I am… . I am going to have her ass
soon. I take my hand and smack her ass
and pussy hard and she winces and groans
in pain and that makes my dick get hard
and pre-cum leakes from my dick.

I keep hitting it over and over again using

all my strength then when her skin starts to
turn really pink and pussy looks swollen
and wet I stop and point my dick in her grab
the belt that is between her hands with my
both hands and thrust hard into her snatch
and she screams and I fuck her hard not
giving her time to breath. I fuck her hard
and mercilessly not giving a fuck about the
cries she’s making.

Me:“ you want to say your password baby?

”

Her:“ no… .. No ”
Me:“ that’s my baby keep your hands right
there and don’t move them ”

I move my hands from the belt to the

cheeks of her ass keep your hands right
there and don’t move them ”

I move my hands from the belt to the

cheeks of her ass spread them as I thrust
into her hard then take my thumb and begin
to rim the tight opening of her ass and as I
do that she begins to shake vibrates.

Her:” oh God yes yes ” hearing her say that

I push against her sphincter muscle and the
tip of my thumb enters her and I push it in
and out of her fucking her ass with my
thumb and she moans. “ oh fuck! fuck me! ”

Me;“ you fucken like that don’t you?! ”

Her:“ fuck yes! ”

Me:“ you want my dick in there? ”

Her:” yes oh God yes! I’m cumming oh God

I’m cumming ” I groan as I furiously pump
into her and groan deep as her pussy
clenches and milks my dick then I feel that
tell tale sign in my nuts that I’m going to
come and I’m going to come hard.

Me:;“ Baby I’m gonna cum! Fuck baby!

Fuuuuucckk” I groan as my nuts and cock
get hard and swells deep inside her and I
spill my seed deep inside her warm cocoon
making me dizzy and losing my breath and
her legs give out and she falls and lays on
her stomach. I unfasten the belt then
massage her hands where the belt was and
lay on top of her soft body.

Me:“ that was amazing baby ”

Her:“ mmmmmm”
Me:“ I love you Zama ”

Her:“ mmmmmmm ” I chuckle and look at

her and she has fallen asleep. I pull out
from here and my seed comes out too and I
smile. I watch her as she sleeps and she
knows I’m not done with her. I look at her
ass and see my hand prints looking red and
lovely on her skin and my dick gets hard
again. I’m giving her thirty minutes to rest a
bit then I’m going to fuck her again. I go the
kitchen and my phone rings and it’s
mbuso.

Me:“ brother how’s it going ”

Him:“ man I’m the only man who’s allowed

to walk naked in that house put some
clothes on! ”

Me:“ I fucken forgot about the cameras I’m

the house” we both laugh
Him:“ how’s my baby doing ”

Me:“ she’s okay how’s everything going

there ”

Him:“ Percy is here too and we managed to

get him to work for the guys as a gardener ”

Me:“ man that’s great ”

Him:“ I need you to be on the lookout for

the hired killer I’ll send you his picture ”

Me:“ do it brother tell me when you guys

find him ”

Him:“ Percy will put cameras in his house

we just need him to seduce the
housekeeper so he’ll be able to check if
there are any ”
Me:“ man it’s not even a day you’ve been
there but you have managed to get Percy a
job ”

Him:“ I’ll do anything man for luh to have

peace and know that she’s safe and no one
will hurt her. Just want all of this to be
fucken over ”

Me:“ I hear you brother you have to be back

before the negotiations start cause luh will
lose it if you’re not back by then ”

Him:“ I will brother let me call her ”

Me:“ ok brother

Him:“ and sicelo don’t have sex in my wife’s

kitchen ”

Me:“ I won’t fool and thanks brother for

getting zama here I really appreciate it ”
Him:“ that’s what family does later brother ”

Me:“ be safe ”

Him:“ you too brother ” I hang up and take

bottles of water and drink one. I go to the
guest bedroom and watch Zama taking a
nap and she looks so young everything she
knows about sex she learned from me. She
knows how to please both in bed and out of
bed and now I have to be the one to please
her and show her that I really love her and
won’t break her heart again but as for
ayanda I’m not done with that bitch.

I am going to show her what happens when

someone disrespects my father me a and
my family she’s in for a huge surprise cause
she’s mot gonna get any money from my
dad. I hope frank took her where I told him
to take her.
CHAPTER 31.
MBUSO.

We are staying at a hotel and Percy

managed to put the hidden cameras in that
fools house. The whole hotel room has
surveillance cameras and we’re watching
this fools every move. He’s on edge
because he knows that I’m coming after
him only if he would know that I’m already
here. After we leave this place I’m going to
deal with sipho and his wife cause it’s time
now they face the music.

Bonga and Sbu are out following that fool

he wants luh to use her as his sex toy and
fulfil his sick desires with her The man is a
fucken lunatic cause the things I found in
his personal computer made me feel
disgusted. He is married and has kids with
his wife but from what we saw he’s treating
her like an animal cause the things he does
to her and his kids make me think that they
would rather live happily without him than
live like this.

I know that when he dies his wife would live

a very comfortable life without him cause
she would get all the money for her and her
kids. I’ll be doing her a favour by killing this
fucken lunatic and I don’t want to waste
time busy following him I want to do it as
soon as possible but I know I have to learn
all his moves before we take action. Percy
opens the door and gets in.

Me:“ you back early today? ”

Him:“ I am boss apparently on Fridays the

gardener works a half day ”

Me:“ how’s the woman and the kids? ”

Him:“ she looks bad boss I heard her telling

her housekeeper that she wants to leave
her husband but she’s afraid that he will kill
her or take her kids and shell be left with
nothing ”

Me:“ well lucky for her then cause I’m about

to make things better for her ”

Him:“ do you think that maybe we should

get her to help us? ”

Me:“ don’t even think about that Percy

cause she might freak and tell him or worse
when he’s dead get the cops to come after
us. She has to believe that he died cause of
an accident ”

Him:“ I hear you boss so when are we

actually doing it ” this boy he’s so eager to
get his hands dirty

Me:“ I’ll be the one getting my hands dirty

not anyone of you you know what you have
to do but if I want you to do something else
I’ll let you know ”
Him:“ I know boss where are the others? ”

Me:“ following him but they should be back

cause they have already put a tracker on
his car ”

Him:“ boss what about the guy who is sent

to kill you do you think he knows were
here? ”

Me“ if he did Ngqakula would be very

careful and more alert both of them have no
idea we’re here ”

Him:“ that’s true boss you want a beer? ”

Me:“ I’m good ” he gets up then Sbu and

bonga get in closing the door behind them
and they look like they have just gotten
lucky. “ what are you both so happy about?
”
Bonga:“ man you see the women down on
the lobby waiting for us ”

Me:“ you have women waiting for you? ”

Sbu:“ we do at the bar and I’m not going

there ”

Bonga:“ why the hell not now? ”

Sbu:“ you can go with percy I want to sleep

man ”

Me:“ yeah you came at 4 am she kept you

up all night ” we laugh

Him:“ more like I kept her up all night ”

Me:“ guys can we agree that you’re not

going to bring women here? ”

Bonga:“ oh come on! ”

Me:“ no brother if you want to fuck
someone then get a room. Remember why
we’re here and we don’t need any
destructions ”

Bonga:“ then let me go and get some one

last time ”

Percy:„ I’m coming with you ”

Me:“ two hours guys that’s all you’re getting

” sbu’s phone beeps he takes his phone
and reads it

Sbu:“ nope you guys are not going

anywhere we have to go somewhere ”

Me:“ where are we going? ”

Sbu:“ let’s suit up guys one of the men we

hired has sent me an address where
Ngqakula likes to visit he thinks there might
be something there ”
Me:“ It’s too early for us to go now we have
to go midnight so no one will see us but tell
that guy we’re coming but he won’t see us
we’ll see him ”

Sbu:“ great idea “ he calls him

Me:“ you guys can go and get some but be

back in two hours ”

Bonga:“ nope I’m good my adrenaline is

already pumping just thinking about what
we might find once we get there ”

Percy:“ I’m good too boss ”

Me:“ I’m gonna call my wife in the

meantime ”

Bonga:“ my beautiful sister in-law man you

got really lucky with her ”
Me:“ shut up fool my underground gang
really looked out for me when I met her ”

Bonga:“ look at how he’s smiling man I’m

gonna be sick ”

Me:“ green is not your colour brother ” we

all laugh. I leave them and go to my en-
suite bedroom. I take my phone and check
the camera’s in luh house to see if
everything is still okay then I see that fool
walking naked in my wife’s house and I
laugh what the hell is he even doing there?.
Then I remember Zama is already there
which means they are at our house. I call
him.

Him:“ brother how’s it going ”

Me:“ man I’m the only one who’s allowed to

walk naked in that house put some clothes
on! ” we laugh and talk some more. I hang
up and call my baby love. It rings and she
doesn’t talk for a while and I start to get
worried

Her:“ sthandwa sam ” I smile

Me:“ you make me feel like I’m still a young

man you know? ” she giggles

Her:“ oh do I? ”

Me:“ yes you do cause I’m laying on the

bed now facing up and smiling talking with
you love. How are you baby? ”

Her:“ I’m good I was mad I thought that you

left alone ”

Me:“ but I have my brothers here baby ”

Her:“ I know that now scelo told me are you
safe and okay? ”

Me:“ I am baby how are my kids ”

Her:“ they are good when you’re done
you’re coming back home right? ”

Me:“ yes baby to you ”

Her:“ where are you and where are you

staying? ”

Me:“ we’re at at a hotel baby and I can’t tell

you where I am but don’t worry all of you
there are safe ”

Her:“ ok I have to go now ”

Me:“ where are you going? ”

Her:“ to get something to eat I’m hungry”

Me:“ tell me how your day is ”

Her:“ oh my God baby you’re not going to

believe this! dad gave ayanda a million
rands to stay away from scelo ”
Me:“ what? as in cash? ”

Her:“ no he wrote her a check and she was

so excited you could swear she won the
lottery ” hmmmm

Me:“ wow and she kinda did I wonder if that

check is real our not ”

Her:“ you think dad gave her a fake check?

”

Me:“ I don’t know baby but I will ask your

brother ”

Her:“ I don’t trust that girl there’s something

very wrong with her ”

Me:“ I’ll get frank to watch her ”

Her:“ I hope she won’t come back and

cause us problems I like Zama though ”
Me:“ she seems like she’s a nice young
woman ”

Her:“ she does boo can I ask you

something? ” oh what does she want to
know now?

Me:“ what do you want to know love? ”

Her:“ do you know who’s the man mah is

dating? ” oh fuck no

Me:“ ah baby why don’t you ask her? ”

Her:“ I have a feeling that says she won’t

tell me ”

Me:“ baby she won’t lie to you ask her and

she’ll tell you ”

Her:“ ok boo I’ll do that ” she sighs

Me:“ I love you baby ”

Her:“ I love you more ”

Me:“ I have to go now baby we’ll talk later

okay ”

Her:“ ok boo be safe ”

Me:“ always ” she sighs and hangs up.

I take quick shower then go and join the

guys and we talk then luh sends me a sexy
picture of her naked with fingers in her
pussy and I smile cause I think she
struggled to take this picture and the
thought of her taking different pictures and
poses and seeing her like this makes my
dick hard. I get up making sure the guys
don’t see me then go to the bathroom and
take a picture of my hard dick and send it to
her then take a cold shower. I’m not calling
her cause we’re going to end up having
phone sex. I join the guys again and when
it’s midnight we go change and wear all
black with bullet proof vests and put the
guns in a duffel bag.

Me:“ there’s a fire escape door we will use ”

They nod

Percy:“ can we trust those guys and what if

they are trying to ambush us? ”

Sbu:“ then they would be very stupid

considering the amount of money we’re
paying them ”

Me:“ we’ll take two cars and then when

we’re near we will leave them somewhere
and walk on foot in case it’s an ambush ”
they agree then we put the guns lock up
and go. It pays to have money cause you
can literally have just about anything you
want.
Me:“ send me the location of where we’re
going ” he does send it to me and I log it in
on the phone laptop and on the car. We
stand outside the hotel before we leave

Me:“ this is a suburb and it looks like there

are people living there and the house is
under that fools name. Okay guys we’ll
leave our cars a kilometre before we get to
this house then check the security and try
to get inside without being noticed but if it
does happen that someone sees us you
know what to do ”

Bonga“ he has an electric fence so how are

we going to get in? ”

Me:“ that’s easy I will cut off the electricity

for a minute and by then everyone must be
inside the yard so they won’t be suspicious
they’ll just think it’s power failure”

Bonga:“ ok brother ”
Me:“ remember guys we’re just going there
to see what’s inside. Time now is 1:15 am
by 1:25 am everyone must be here ”

Them:“ sure ”

Sbu:“ I’ll take the front of the house with

bonga and you guys take the back ”

Percy:“ do you think he has another family

living in there boss? ”

Me:“ maybe or maybe he has people living

there and keeping them as slaves your ear
pieces are working right?....then let’s go
guys ” We get in the cars and then drive out
when we get to where we’re going to leave
the cars and start walking in the shadows.

As we approach I see that there are two

guys guarding the house in the front gate
and it might be possible that there are more
people inside the yard and so whatever that
is they are guarding is big.

Me:“ guys we might have more guys

guarding the house be careful as soon as
the lights go out jump in and use your
thermal night vision goggles ”

Sbu:“ on it ”

Me:“ Percy you ready? ”

Him:“ I am boss ”

We go to the back of the yard then get to

the fence and I take my phone out and get
into the municipal database and switch of
the lights then quickly jump and Percy
follows me. We can hear someone shouting
asking another one to go check if the back
up generator is working fuck!.
Me:“ guys they have a back up generator
we have five minutes then we leave ” the
back door opens and some guy comes out
looking like he’s drunk or high then we
quickly get in house and I can see people in
bedrooms chained to beds and there are
cameras and in some rooms there are
women and men and they have the women
chained and having sex with them… What
the fuck! we go to the corridor and I look to
my right and see a young girl or woman
crying in the bathroom and she looks like
she’s chained in there. I look at the time
and we have three minutes.

I go to the bathroom and open it slowly and

she gets in the shower and crawls back
how does she see coz it’s dark?. I tap
Percy on his shoulder and motion for him to
leave the house and he does. I get in the
bathroom and the girl bows her head
down.
Her:“ who’s there? please don’t hurt me
again! ”

Me:“ sssshhh you don’t want them to come

here what’s your name and how old are you
?”

Her:“ I’m 18 sir and my name is

nompumelelo who are you cause you don’t
sound like the men from here? ”

Me:“ shhnnn I can’t stay long but how did

you get here? ”

Her:“ I was kidnapped I want to go home to

my family ” she cries

Me:“ we are going to come and get all of

you out of here what did they do to you? ”

Her:“ they give us something then take

videos of us naked and they… they rape us
” I look at the time fuck I have to go!
Me:“ I have to go now but please don’t tell
anyone there was someone talking to you
you hear me nompumelelo or else I won’t
be able to come and help all of you here ”

Her:“ I won’t sir I promise I just want to go

home to my family. Please come back ”

M:“ I will ” I quickly leave the bathroom and

almost run to someone but then I look and
it’s Percy fuck this boy I told him to go. We
leave the same way we got in and the
moment we jump off the fence the lights
kick back in again… . Fuck we almost got
caught!. I run and Percy runs too until we
get to the cars and when we get there sbu
and bonga come too and they look like they
were running too.

Sbu:“ fuck man that was close! ”

Me:“ let’s get out of here guys ” we drive
straight to the hotel and park in the
basement and park the cars then take the
elevator to our room. We get inside and we
all heard for the alcohol and we look at
each other then laugh

Me:“ we have to get all of those women out

of there ”

Bonga:“ I thought I have seen some weird

and sick things but this no! ”

Me:“ we have to kill this idiot tomorrow he

has to die ”

Sbu:“ I’m with you on that one. There’s no

way I’m going to be able to sleep man I
think there was a 10 year old girl there and
she was fucken chained ”

Me:“ any of those kids there could have

been our kids… this is so fucked up ”
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 31.

MBUSO.

We sit down and have drinks everyone is

fucken shocked from the things we saw at
that house. So this is what he wanted to do
the woman I love chain her video tape her
doing sick things to her… I want to fucken
kill this animal and I want to kill him now.

I take my laptop and look for pet shops

around P. E online and find one then pay
and click collect at what time cause I’ll send
Percy to go and collect it and I smile cause
he’s going to freak when he sees what he’ll
be collecting. I get on the hotel website and
pay for three rooms that we’re going to
need.

Me:“ sbu get your guys ready tell them to

come here now! we’re going in now before
that mother fucker wakes up ”
Sbu:“ hell yes! I’m on it brother ” he does

Bonga:“ let’s get him cause we weren’t

going to sleep ”

Percy:“ I’m still in shock ”

Me:“ Percy did I not tell you to leave the

house and wait for me outside? ”

Percy:“ Boss I couldn’t leave you alone

there not after the things we saw I stayed at
the door and kept watch so I can see if
there’s anyone who will come and see us.
You hired me to protect you and I was
doing my job boss and you wouldn’t have
asked me to be here if you know knew that
I don’t have your back ”

Me:“ I know and it wasn’t that I said that

cause I couldn’t let us all get caught if they
did saw us ”
Him:“ but they didn’t you know I’m as good
as Frank boss that why I’m here ”

Me:“ I know are they here yet brother? ”

Sbu:“ they must be here right about now ”

someone knocks on the door and bonga
opens it and they all get in and they looked
shocked when they see all the surveillance
cameras in the room and some look
nervous good.

Me:“ who’s in charge here and how many

are you guys? ”

One guy:“ I am and there’s 10 of us ” he

says stepping forward ”

Me:“ wrong I’m in charge here! what do

they call you? ”

Him:“ sorry boss they call me jama ”

Me:“ sbu is he the one who sent the
location? ”

Sbu:“ that’s him ”

Me:“ ok listen to me very carefully sbu and

bonga will devide you guys and I’ll just take
the two of you here with Percy and the rest
of you will be devided between my brothers
”

Sbu:“ ok guys we’re going to that place

again and we are going to get all of those
girls locked up in there and take them and
bring them to this hotel here and to these
rooms ” he gives jama and another guys
keys

Bonga:“ you will not man handle any of the

women and children in there you shoot to
kill any of the guards ”
Me:“ but the man involved in the making of
videos and who are raping the women in
there I want them alive you will shoot them
with these tranquilizers and get them in one
room ” I take a bag filled with tranquilizer
darts and give it to them.

Bonga:“ you want me to call the Albanians?

”

Me:“ call them now and find out if they have

someone who can take and hold theses
guys somewhere cause I want that house
burnt down to the ground ” he takes his
phone and call them

Percy:“ why can’t we kill all of them in

there? burn all of them? ”

Me:“ we can’t cause the neighbors will

smell human flesh and call the cops plus
having many dead bodies will lead to many
questions and investigations. We are going
to do this thing as quietly as possible ”

Sbu:“ and remember that all of you signed

none disclosure documents and we have all
your information in there your family wives
girlfriends and your kids. We know
everything so if you don’t want to be part of
this leave now! ” we look at them and no
one leaves

Bonga:“ you really don’t want to mess with

us and you don’t want to know what will
happen should you tell anyone even your
wife or pastor or mother. We will know and
we’ll come after you ”

Me:“ we not sure what we’ll face when we

get there and some of us could die but you
have to fight and know that you have a
family that is depending on you and you
can’t afford to lose them. But should it
happen that you die don’t worry cause we
look out for our own. I’ll make sure that your
family is taken care of and they can take
care of themselves too. I’m going to ask
you again is there anyone who wants to
leave cause you are free to go? ”

Them:“ no boss we are not leaving ”

Me:“ ok then Percy and jama and one of

your guys go and get us petrol 25 litres
each container here’s the money buy 20 of
them ” I give Percy the money cause we
don’t want any paper trail following us and I
know when we leave this place I’m going to
wipe out any information they have on us in
this hotel. “ and guys avoid cameras at the
petrol station use the truck we have in the
basement ”

Percy:“ sure boss do we come back here

again? ”
Me:“ I’ll wait for you at that fools house
down the street and jama you’ll gear up
when you get there hurry up it’s 2am I want
us to be there I n thirty minutes ” they leave
then sbu and bonga devide the remaing
eight guys.

Me:“ gear up guys here are the guns with

silencers bulletproof vests night vision
goggles and each of you must have at least
five tranquilizer darts ” they start getting
ready.

Sbu:“ me and bonga will get the girls to

safety but I’m worried that that they might
scream when they see us I think they might
think we’re also there to kidnap them ”

Me:“ yeah but when they see that you’re

there to rescue them they might come down
”
Bonga:“ they don’t trust men brother we
might have to drug them too ”

Me:“ we can’t drug them cause those sick

fucks we’re already drugging them and they
might end up being addicts ”

Sbu:“ we’ll use those police badges so they

will think that we’re special cops ” we laugh

Me:“ I think the women in the will comfort

the little ones cause I think they know each
other now and have a bond I think ”

Bonga:“ yeah that’s true man Alex came

through with those badges ”

Me:“ I think that will work pretending to be

cops they’ll feel at ease ”

Sbu:“ they will cause we haven’t seen any

dirty cops working with that fool ”
Bonga:“ he can’t be working alone and
running this thing ”

Me:“ I checked and he us remember this is

his dirty secret life he’s living I think we
should get all the camera equipment so we
can see who else has been in there doing
the same things he does ”

Bonga:“ we’ll do that but are you sure you

want to go see that fool alone brother? ”

Me:“ the safety of those kids and women is

important I have been through worse
situations than this one ”

Sbu:“ but as soon as we bring them here

and see if they are okay we’re coming to
you ”

Me:“ ok brother ”
Bonga:“ how are we going to get everyone
where they live? ”

Me:“ they first have to tell us who they are

and where they are from then we’ll take it
from there? what did the Albanians say? ”

Bonga:“ they said they have people in cape

Town and they’ll be here in the morning and
I’ll tell them where to meet ”

Me:“ good brother let’s go and end this sick

fuck as soon as I switch the lights off you
get in ”

Sbu:“ everyone ready? ” they all nod and

we leave some using the fire exit door and
others using the elevator. I get in the car
sbu takes the truck and bongs takes
another car we all leave andI take a
different route to Ngqakula's house. I park
down the road five houses down then
switch off the lights and check on bonga
and sbu

Me:“ guys how far are you ? ”

Bonga:“ we’re almost there just waiting for

you to give us the go ahead ”

Me:“ Percy where are you? ”

Percy:“ I’m almost there boss jama is on his

way to you bonga ”

Bonga:“ oh here he is do you want me to

send him back to you guys? ”

Me:“ no he’s going to take 20 minutes I

don’t have. Sbu are you ready brother? ”

Sbu:“ I am brother cut off the electricity ” I

see Percy pulling up behind me with the
other guy and I get out too taking the bag I
brought with me then I don’t give them
instructions I just run towards Ngqakula’s
house and when I’m at the gate I take out
my phone hack the database again and
switch off the lights

Me:“ let’s get them boys ” I jump over the

fence these two follow me and walk beside
me and we take our guns out

Me:“ we are going to enter in the kitchen

Percy you have the keys? ” He nods

Him:“ you'll get the kids and lock them in

one bedroom Percy since they know you
and you come with me let’s go before they
call this fool ” we quickly and quietly go
around the house and get to the kitchen
and Percy unlocks the door and we get in
and I go upstairs go to their bedroom and
open the door slowly.

I see them sleeping peacefully and I signal

to the guy to keep quiet and hive him the
bag and he takes it. I go the wife’s side of
the bed and then shake her softly and she
opens her eyes and looks at us shocked. I
signal for her to keep quiet and get out of
bed and lucky for me she does and she’s
looking at her husband scared and she’s
naked.

The moon is shining bright outside so she

can see two men in her room Percy opens
the door and she sees him and quickly runs
and throws herself to him… . Ok. I jump on
the bed and he gets startled and opens his
eyes and is about to scream or say
something but I don’t give him a chance
cause I just punch him with my gun and
knock him out.

Me:“ Percy can she put some clothes on

and make sure she talks to her kids and
they don’t call anyone? get me a damn
chair and give me that bag ”
Her:“ who are you and what do you want
from us? ”

Me:“ we’re here cause your husband

messed with the wrong man ”

Her:“ what did he do? ”

Me:“ do you want to leave your husband

and start a new life? ” she looks at Percy for
a long time then looks at me nods does she
like him?

Me:“ say it! ”

Her:“ I want to live him but I know he’ll find

us ”

Me:“ he won’t cause he’s going to die do

you want to watch him die? ”

Her:“ yes
Sponsored
this son of a bitch has been making my life
a living hell so yes I want to see him
begging for his life ”

Me:“ then it’s your lucky daycause you

might just get your revenge ” Percy comes
with a chair and we drag this fat bustard
and sit him on the chair. I take out the hand
cuffs and cuff each leg on the chair and cuff
his fat hands. “ get me a bucket of water to
wake up this fool ” she goes to the
bathroom and I look at Percy cause he has
some explaining to do. She comes back
with the bucket and she has put some
clothes on.

Me:“ brothers how far are you guys? I need

to put the electricity back on ”

Bonga:“ the women and the kids are all in

the quantum and we’re busy dragging these
men to the truck ”
Sbu:“ man we need at least thirty minutes
so we can get all the equipment here ”

Me:“ guys hurry before they wake up and

we need to burn that house before I switch
on the lights again works fast brothers ”

Sbu:“ give us 15 minutes then ”

Me:“ ok then lady go check on your kids

and make sure they don’t hear anything ”

Her:“ ok but I want to here ”

Me:“ when he hits you what do they do? ”

Her:“ they go to our housekeeper and sleep

with her ”

Me:“ take them there and don’t say

anything to your housekeeper Percy go with
her ” they leave and I take the bucket and
throw it all on this fucker and he wakes up
screaming and gasping for air.

Me:“ wake up mother fucker I’m here ”

Him:“ who the fuck are you? ” I laugh

Me:“ you wanted me so here I am ”

Him:“ you! how did you get here Mbuso

Gumede? ”

Me:“ you don’t get to ask questions here!

what did you think will happen? you’ll
threaten to take my wife away from me then
send someone to kill me and you thought I’ll
just wait for you and not come after you? ”

Him:“ you won’t get away with this he will

find you and kill you ”

Me:“ no I’ll find him like I found you nobody

threatens and gets away with it ”
Him:“ where is my wife where are my kids
what dis you do to them? ”

Her:“ oh I’m right here husband finally you

have met your match I can’t wait to see you
need for your life and die.! ” she says
getting in the room

Him:“ you are working with them too how

could you betray me you whore! ” she takes
the side lump and throws it on his face and
he bleeds. I look at the time and we are left
with 5 minutes before I have to light again.

Me:“ how the hell do you live with yourself

you sick fuck! how could you kidnap and
rape kids and make pornographic videos of
them? ” the mother fucker laughs and his
wife gasps shocked.

Him:“ they loved it each and everyone of

them loved it and they made me so much
money their videos are all over the world
and there are some streaming live now! ” I
take the baseball bat from the bag and hit
both his knee caps hard with all my strength
and I feel his bones cracking and he
screams.

Me:“ you have kids you fucken psycho how

can you do this to other kids and not think
about your own?! ”

Him:“ I have never touched my kids and I

will never but you mbuso that lovely looking
pregnant fiancée of yours would make me
lots and lots of money ”

Me:“ no one will do anything to her not as

long as I live! ” I hit both his arms with the
baseball bat and they break and I see
bones sticking out of them and he screams
so hard.
Me:“ scream all you want but no one is
coming to save you your house is big and
your neighbours are far.

Him:“ fuck you gumede you hear me fuck

you! ” I laugh and take out the gas torch
and light in and he looks at it and scream.

Me:“ I have something that might take away

the pain I can save you and not kill you ”

Him:“ please don’t kill me I can change and

stop what I’m doing please make this pain
go ”

Her:“ no! you can’t do that you promised me

that he will die ”

Me:“ lady shut up and watch if he apologies

and promises to stop then maybe he
deserves another chance ”

Her:“ you son of a… . ”

Me:“ you better not say what I think you’re
going to say and shut your fucken mouth
before I shut it for you. Where was I okay
second chance tell me where is that sniper
you hired to kill me? ” he’s groaning in pain
a

Him:“ he is in Ladysmith now he called me

5 hours ago give me something man I’m
dying here ”

Me:“ before I do that I’m going to give you

an address and you tell him to go there
cause that’s where he will find me. He will
enter the farm and go straight to the barn
cause we’ll be having a meeting there your
inside contact told you that do you hear me!
” he’s in pain and I doubt he’ll tell him
exactly as I said.

Him:“ ok. ok I’ll do it please man don’t burn

me with that thing ” I take my phone and
call sicelo and he answers on the second
ring

Him:“ what’s wrong cause I can see you’re

still alive? ”

Me:“ the sniper is going to come to the farm

I want you guys to be ready for him and
capture him go now and tell everyone to get
in position cause he’s already there and
wear my clothes and walk like me so he’ll
think you’re me ”

Him:“ you found ngqakula? ”

Me:“ yes he’s going to call him now man the

things we found will make you sick ”

Him:“ kill that fucker ”

Me:“ you bet I am be safe well talk later ” he

hands up. “ guys talk to me how far are
you? ”
Sbu:“ we’re done and we’re on the way to
the hotel ”

Bonga:“ I’m taking the man to the place the

Albanians sent me and we’ll wait until they
show up and the house is burning down as
we speak ”

Me:“ okay I better hurry up then where is

his phone? ” I ask the wife and she looks
for it and gives it to me. I take his thumb
and unlock it “ what’s his contact? ”

Him:“ sniper ” I look for it then look at him

Me:“ you say anything else I’m going to

have my guys here fuck you in the ass
before I kill you you get me? ” he nods and
this mother is going to die soon weak ass
fucken psycho. I dial the sniper’s number
and it rings and I put it on loud speaker.
Sniper:“ boss man ”

Ngqakula:“ killer I want you to go…. ”

surprisingly this mother fucker tells him
everything I told him to say he really thinks
I’m not going to kill him and I smirk this
fool.

Sniper:“ I’ll go boss but why are you talking

like you’re in pain ”

Ngqakula:“ because I was fucking my wife

before I got the call a and she is biting me
fuck! ” he’s even a better actor wow!.

Sniper:“ ok boss I’m going there now cause

I was sleeping ”

Ngqakula:“ call me when the job is done ”

then I hang up.

Me:“ you convinced him and now you

deserve your reward ” I take my phone and
bring the power back on again and I look at
the time and it’s 2:30 am. I give the lady the
baseball bat and she takes it looking
scared.

Me:“ time to get your revenge if you still

want ”

Her:“ I have been dreaming about this for

years it’s time youet your fucked up
ancestors mother fucker! ”

Ngqakula:“ baby please I’m sorry my love

don’t do this! ”

Her:“ goodbye mother fucker this is for me

my kids and all the women that have
suffered in your hands ” she swings the bat
like a baseball player and hits her husband
on the face hard breaking his bones and
they crack and he screams.

Me:“ do you want to hit him again? ”

Her:“ no I’m good ” I nod and take the gas
torch light it and bring it to his face

Me:“ give me something to gag him ” she

goes to the laundry and comes back with
his socks and I take them and put them
forcefully down his throat.

Me:“ say hello to hell for me ” I take the

torch and bring it to his chest and burn him
and the smell of human flesh burning is
disgusting. He screams and screams and I
continue to burn him until I see his rib
bones then I hear Percy the wife and the
guy all puking. I burn him and see his heart
and I turn the heat on and burn him until he
pisses and shits on himself then stops
moving and dies. I look at them and they
look sick.

Me:“ now it’s your turn Mrs? ”

Her:“ you’re going to kill me too? “

Me:“ you know Percy here and you might

call the police on us so why should I kill you
too? ”

Her:“ please sir I could have done that but I

didn’t and I trust Percy cause he told me
you are aan I can trust and you’re here to
help is ”

Me:“ well be watching you but if say

anything to anyone I’ll come after you
myself you understand ? ” a message gets
in and it’s from sicelo and he says they
have captured the sniper and I smile.

Her:“ I do sir ” I had to say that so I can

sure that we can trust her but meant what I
said about coming after her should she say
anything to anyone.
Me:“ the police are going to have many
questions as to what happened here so we
have to make it like you got ambushed and
attacked in your own home. Percy is going
to beat you up and you have to be strong
this one last time then it’s over. Percy just
hit her twice on the face but don’t break
anything then you can hit her on her body”

Her:“ I can take it ” I nod at Percy and he

nods. He punches her hard and she winces
but doesn’t say a word then he punches her
again and she tears up then he takes out
his belt and hits her hard five times

Me:“ ok stop Percy that’s enough ” he stops

“ lady are you okay? ”

Her:“ I’m fine what now? ” she asks getting

up

Me:“ we leave you call the police crying

hysterically and tell them you got attached
they tortured your husband cause he owes
them money and they didn’t get any in the
house then beat you up and threatened to
kill you and your kids when you tried to run
away. Percy will call you after a week and
please lady do as I tell you! ”

Her:“ I will ” she looks at Percy and he

mouths I’m sorry and I think these two like
each other. I pack all my things including
the baseball bat and take ngqakula’s cell
phone then take the DNAOUT Invisible
solution spray.

Me:“ you don’t know us we were never here

but we’ll see you again ” she nods then
kisses Percy on the mouth then I take the
spray and spray it around the bedroom kids
room and where we walked when we got
into the house the fence we jumped then
the gate opens and we leave and run to our
cars get in and drive off to the hotel.
CHAPTER 32.
MBUSO.

I get inside our hotel suite and all the guys

are there excluding bonga they are talking
softly but get silent when they see me. I
look at all of them and some look shocked
and shaken. I stand in the middle of the
room and look at each and everyone of
them in the eye.

Me:“ I want to thank you for a job well done

guys you did great and you saved the
women and children today and we have
saved their lives for the better and now we
will return them to their families. You should
be proud of yourselves for the job well done
and you get something a little bit extra in
your bank accounts before the day ends but
remember what happened here stays here
guys ” they nod.
Sbu:“ you can leave now well take it from
here but jama you’ll stay behind ” they nod
and leave.

Me:“ how many women and children were

there? ”

Sbu:“ four women four teenagers and five

kids the two rooms. I wanted to divide them
they absolutely refused and they are afraid
that they are going to be sold again ”

Me:“ yeah it makes sense but how are they

doing now that they are out of that house? ”

Him:“ man they are still scared and it’s

going to take them long to trust men and be
out in the public ”

Me:“ I don’t blame them who’s guarding

them? ”

Him:“jama's right hand man ”

Me:“ ok I’m just glad that they all safe and
will return to their families ”

Him:“ man they are going to need lots and

lots of therapy especially the little ones… .
Man I’m so mad I want to fucken kill
someone! ”

Me:“ you’ll get a piece of the sniper and

take it out on him ”

Him:“ you found him”

Me:“ yeah I set a trap for him and now scelo

has him ”

Him:“ damn brother you don’t waste time ”

Me:“ nobody messes with my family and

gets away with it Percy tell me what the
fuck is going on between you and that
woman ”
Percy:“ boss… uhm the first time I saw her
we clicked I felt something for her but I
didn’t show it and I was just as surprised as
you when she threw herself at me and
hugged me ”

Me:“ nothing happens between the two of

you before that? ”

Percy:“ I swear boss nothing happened ”

Me:“ I’m going to tell this for your own good

if you are going to pursue a relationship
with her know that she will always know
what happened to her husband. You will be
that constant reminder especially when she
looks at her kids and when they asked her
who killed their father and why obviously
you didn’t I did but when you guys argue
one day she might use that against you and
that is very dangerous. I will not hesitate to
kill her if I even suspect that she might be
up to something I’ll protect my family Percy
and you are my family so you better be sure
if it’s her you really want ”.

Percy:“ I hear you boss and I’ll think about it

”

Sbu:“ you’re fucken crazy if you think you

can build something with that woman we
don’t need her in our lives cause she’s
going to be a constant reminder and what
happens when she meets luh and luh finds
out that she’s the wife of the man who
wanted her as his slave… Come on brother
think about that! ”

Me:“ she’ll be mad at me and I can’t handle

that I can’t lie to her. Look Percy I know
she’s innocent in all of this cause she too
was his victim but I can’t have her around
luh ”
Percy:“ I get it boss but I still haven’t
decided if I want her that way or maybe it
was just physical attraction. We can’t blame
her for her husband’s actions it’s not fair ”

Me:“ I will not have someone in my life who

will always have a hold on me I don’t live
my life looking over my back scared that
someone who knows something about me
might show up and cause problems not
only for me but for you too Percy ”

Sbu:“ you can always get another girl who

has no baggage Percy and leave this
woman it’s either you leave her and don’t
contact her ever again or we kill her ”

Jama:“ or we kill you Percy. You haven’t

even fucked her but here you are busy
talking all this shit! ”

Percy:“ shut the fuck up you were not there

what do you know? ”
Jama:“ I know that we fucken get rid of
liabilities and she is one. I have something
that we can give her and she won’t
remember anything that happened last
night ”

Me:“ what the fuck? where did you get it? ”

Jama:“ I know people who make this stuff ”

Me:“ get it now and you? I’m going to book

her a room and you’re going to ask her to
come here and you’ll give her the stuff.
You’ll act all concerned and worried about
her and you’ll give it to her ”

Him:“ she could be the one though boss ”

Me:“ go and call her ” he goes to the

bedroom. “ get more of that stuff I’ll pay and
we’re going to give it to Percy too. I don’t
want him to remember anything from being
here in P. E cause it looks like he really
likes her and we can’t have that ”

Sbu:“ great idea cause he makes me want

to just punch him ”

Jama:“ they say they’ll deliver it in two

hours and they want R20. 000 ”

Me:“ what the hell! how big is that thing? ”

Jama:“ 2 litre boss you just use a drop of it

and in 15 minutes it will knock them down
and they won’t remember anything and it’s
not traceable on the blood ”

Me:“ I hope they don’t use that thing on

drugging and raping women ”

Jama:“ no sir they sell it and use it on

people who have severe cases of trauma ”
Sbu:“ fuck man we need to work with these
people ”

Me:“ does the government know about this

drug? ”

Jama:“ no sir cause they know if the

government finds out they will take it from
them ”

Me:“ but you told us about it why? ”

Jama:“ I saw you bosses how you work and

you care for the people who work for you
and I want to be part of that and so I
thought bringing this to the table would be
my way of getting in and being one of the
man you trust too ” he’s smart I like smart
man. I look at sbu and he’s impressed too.

Me:“ welcome to the family jama ” we shake

his hands Percy comes back
Percy:“ she’s coming boss ”

Me:“ who is she going to leave the kids with

and is the police done at their house? ”

Percy:“ she said the police are almost done

and her sister is already there and the
housekeeper too ”

Me:“ go and get a room and keep her

company. When they deliver the drug I’ll
call you then hand up and you’ll use the
land line and pretend to order something
then Jama will come as a waiter and bring
you guys champagne that you’ll drink cause
you’ll ask jama to open it and pour it then
Jama will spike her drink
Sponsored
cause you’ll ask jama to open it and pour it
then Jama will spike her drink you get me?
”

Him:“ I hear you boss ”

Me:“ go then ” he leaves “ drug them both
but we have to make sure that we get her
back at her house before the drug kicks in.
We’ll call her and pretend to be the police ”
Intake out my phone and call bonga

Me:“ where are you? ”

Him:“ I’ll be there in an hour ”

Me:“ have they arrived ? ”

Him:“ they are flying in in thirty minutes then

I’ll wait for them to make the payment and
then I’ll be there ”

Me:“ we should be gone before the sum

rises ”

Him:“ don’t worry safe and I’ll be there ”

Me:“ ok brother ” I hang up.

Sbu:“ so what do we do with the women
and children? ”

Me:“ I was thinking that we go and talk to

the women first and find out if they know
where the kids are from and take it from
there because we don’t want to be caught
with them and be accused of human
trafficking ”

Sbu:“ let’s go Jama you stay here and let us

know when your people are here ”

Jama:“ sure my bosses ” We leave and go

to the other room opposite to our suite and
knock

Him:“ your boss open up! ” he opens the

door and I look the women and children are
all sitting down in group at the corner hands
around each other
Me:“ we are not here to harm you you don’t
have to be afraid of us. We are going to
take you back to your families who’s speaks
for you ”

Girl:“ I remember your voice sir you’re the

one who found me in the bathroom and
promised to get me out of the and take me
to my family… .. Thank you sir thank you! ”
the chain that was around her neck is gone
but you can still see the bruise around her
neck.

Me:“ you don’t have to thank us cause you

don’t deserve what happened to you but it’s
over now who speakers for you? ”

Voice :“ I will ”

Me:“ who are you ” I ask a woman who

looks so skinny like she was bring starved
of food.
Her:“ my name is thando and I’m from
Joburg all of them found me there ” she
says sniffing

Sbu:“ how did they kidnapped you? ”

Her:“ I was coming back from work and

there was no taxi so O requested a meter
taxi then the driver sprayed something in
the car like air freshener and then I woke up
there naked and chained ” wow.

Her:“ All these kids are from ages 891010

and 11 and they all have one thing in
common ”

Me:“ what is it? ”

Her:“ they are all orphans and they live at

an orphanage in Alex ” fuck!
Me:“ Fuck he was targeting orphanages
cause he knew that no one will look for
those kids cause they have no one ”

Sbu:“ he could have done a fake adoption

paid someone to falsify the documents ”

Me:“ unless if the orphanage is working with

him we need to shut it down and move the
kids that are living there cause they might
be selling the kids to someone else too ”

Sbu:“ I’ll take them to Durban to my family’s

orphanage they will live there ” the kids
start crying and man it breaks my heart.

Sbu:“ and you ladies? ” the girl who

remembers voice speaks

Her:“ I was coming back from the library at

night when I felt like someone was watching
me then I ran but bumped into another guy
and he hit me and then I woke up at that
place I’m from Pretoria and I was studying
at Wits University ”

They tell us how they got kidnapped one

was drugged at the club another was sold
by her sugar daddy the other was pimped
out by her friends another was hit from the
back at the toilet in the mall the other one
too was at the club when a guy and bought
them drinks then followed them where they
live and took her cause that’s the last thing
she remembers and the last one was
walking to the shops when they took her.

They tell us they raped them and would film

and stream it while the rape was happening
and we’ll see all of that in the equipment we
took and they tell us that that fucker
Ngqakula would get requests from people
and they would do what the views want
them to do to them and the things they say
make us sick to our stomachs and it makes
me feel like I can go and kill that fucker over
and over again. Six women are from Joburg
including the girl and the lady who was
telling is about the kids then the other two
women are from Bloemfontein and Ermelo.

Jama calls and we leave the women and go

to our room then bonga gets in the room
too.

Him:“ Damn you look like someone has

died what happened? ”

Me:“ you’ll watch and see I need you to go

with jama and he will fill you in about the
deal I want us to do then you’ll take that
women back to her place then you guys
come back and were leaving this place sbu
get the jet ready and I saw that they were
dressed thank you brothers ”

Sbu:“ we saw a clothing store opened and

we bought them clothes they couldn’t walk
around naked ” I nod.
Me:“ go guys and get the drug drug them
then take her home and come back do it
quick ” bonga and jama leave then sbu calls
the pilot then we start packing up all our
equipment and jama's right hand helps us
as we take the women and kids to the
quantum and he keeps guard. We pack
everything in the other quantum all the
equipment from Ngqakula and ours then
wipe out all D. N. A from the suite we were
using to the one where the women were
placed and the elevator then jama comes
dragging Percy who’s drunk putting him in
the car then they take the women and put
her in the other car and leave hers at the
hotel and they drive her to her place they’ll
think she’s drunk then we spray again the
basement then get in our cars sbu driving
the quantum with women and I drive the
one with Percy jama's man and the
equipment.
We drive to the private airport then we wait
for jama an bonga to arrive and when they
do I get n my laptop and jack the hotel’s
system and hard drive and wipe everything
making sure that there’s no trace of us then
load the equipment and the kids and
women Percy in the private jet.

Me:“ you can come with us and stay for a

few days ”

Jama:“ I have to be your eyes and ears and

see what’s happing here but when
everything has gone down I’ll definitely
come boss ”

Me:“ thanks men you’ve been a real help

and I’ll settle your man's accounts and
yours ”

Him:“ I trust you boss plus I have to clean

the cars we rented ”
Me:“ well see you and your man soon ” we
all shake hands with them and then we
board the plane and leave P. E and you can
see the relieved faces on the women and
kids. Luh baby I’m coming home!.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 32.

LUNGI.

My brother left with Zama and I hope he will

apologize to her properly and not use sex to
make her forgive him not I know she
forgave him for what he did cause she
came here. I hope my brother will find the
love he deserves actually both of them I
hope Zama is nothing like ayanda and I
hope it was the last time we saw that girl.
Preston and Mah come and sit next to me.

Me:“ my favourite people what’s app? ”

Preston:“ we have to talk about your dress ”

Me:“ I really don’t want to get married
pregnant cause I’m going to look like a fat
cow imagine looking at my wedding photos
five years from now ”

Mah:“ they’ll be beautiful baby and you can

always get married again when the kids are
a year old ”

Me:“ Preston just make me look beautiful

like I’m the only girl in the room that mbuso
will see. ”

Him:“ girl have you seen how that man

looks at you? you can bring naked girls and
stand them in front of him and he won’t
even see them ”

Me:“ he’s a man pres and men have

wondering eyes ”
Mah:“ mbuso will never cheat on you luh he
loves you that much and look at him now
he’s there fighting for you ”

Me:“ sometimes I feel like I don’t deserve

him mah cause all of the things he’s done
and is doing for me. I feel like he will say
he’s had enough ”

Pres:“ now that’s your emotions talking not

you ”

Mah:“ he’s doing all of that because he

loves you and because your well being and
safety is his number one priority tell me how
many men would go out of their way to do
that? ”

Me:“ yeah I know I’m just being silly ”

Pres:“ you’re not being silly luh he’s coming

back to you and the kids and you guys are
going to get married ” I sigh
Mah:“ I’m just glad that ayanda girl is gone ”

Pres:“ I don’t know much about her but from

what big brother told me he said when he
first met her she was this sweet person and
not this woman we saw. He said she
changed after her ex called her and she’s
being like that since ”

Mah:“ your brother didn’t know that girl at all

the only thing he saw is her ass and nothing
else. That girl has just something wrong
with her and I’m glad she’s out of our lives
because I don’t trust her ”

Pres:“ I think she’s either bipolar and she

knows but she’s not taking her medication
or her family has a history of mental
illnesses. She needs very intensive therapy
to determine what is wrong with her ”
Me:“ it might explain the way she was
behaving ”

Mah:“ maybe but I still say those were her

true colours we saw and your brother better
be glad that she showed him now rather
than later by the way where is sicelo and
Zama ”

Me:“ they went to my place to talk ”

Pres:“ and we all know what language they

are going to be talking “ we laugh

Mah:“ he needs to talk to her and apologize

if I was her I would let him anywhere near
me. I would starve him ” we laugh

Pres:“ ok ok let’s talk about your dresses

baby sis ”

Me:“ okay have you found someone to

design it? ”
Pres:“ there’s a guy I know who’s a
designer and he’s going to be here
tomorrow and his work is amazing he’s
going to be designing both your traditional
and white dress ”

Me:“ ok what about the bridesmaid and the

groom and the groom’s men my dad and
uncle Victor? ”

Mah:“ he’s doing all of that ”

Me:“ not everyone is here mah how is he

going to take the measurements? ”

Pres:“ money talks luh he’s going to be

here for the whole week that’s why we need
at least everyone to be here ”

Me:“ I don’t even know how many groom's

men mbuso wants and who’s going to be
his best man… . I need to talk to him about
that ”

Mah:“ who’s going to be your maid of

honour and how many people have you
asked to be your brides maid? ”

Me:“ I want sims to be my maid of honour

but I haven’t asked her yet then it’s going to
be you mah and you brother then I’m
thinking of asking Zama too cause I don’t
have many friends and because I think
mbuso is going to ask bonga to be his best
men then his other brother zipho maybe our
brother scelo then his other friend sbu then
we’ll all have four each ”

Pres:“ thank you luh for including me ”

Me:“ you don’t have to thank me pres ”

Mah:“ I’m thankful too luh I have never
been someone’s bridesmaid before and I’m
so excited ”

Pres:“ ok now that is out of the way we

found a venue and it’s gorgeous and it can
accommodate up to 500 hundred people
and so how many people would you like to
invite? ”

Me:“ I wish mbuso was here but he said the

only think he wants to know is when and
where so he will show up. I want something
small and private five hundred people is
way too much for me. I only want our
families and close friends that’s all so
maybe let’s say three hundred cause
mbuso has a big family and I don’t want
anyone to feel excluded ”

Mah:“ I’ll call her and find out how many

people she would like to invite ”
Me:“ family and only their closest friends
and about the venue well… . I want to get
married at our families farm because it is
beautiful the first time dad took me there I
knew this is where I was going to get
married and because my mom and all my
ancestors are buried there so I want
everyone living or not there with me so they
can protect me my kids and my marriage ”

Dad:“ you really mean that ” he says sitting

next to me and he looks so emotional

Me:“ of course daddy I want to get married

there traditional and white wedding and
you’ll be walking me down the isle and
giving me away to mbuso ” he takes my
hand and kisses it.

Dad:“ It will be my honour baby but I was

thinking something else too ”

Me:“ what is it? ”

Dad:“ I think you should ask your uncle
Victor too so we'll both walk you done the
isle cause I think he has earned that right
too ”

Me:“ ngempela baba and you don’t have a

problem with it? ” ( really dad… )

Him:“ he has raised you to be the wonderful

woman you are today and he deserves that
honour too baby ”

Me:“ thank you daddy thank you very much

” I hug him and he smiles.

Dad:“ now let me leave you alone I’m going

to the farm I’ll see you guys later ” he says
standing up

Me:“ baba? ” ( dad) he looks at me. “ did

you really give ayanda one million rands? ”
Dad:“ for my children’s safety baby I’ll give
away all the money I have cause it wouldn’t
replace you ”

Me:“ you’re the best dad ever and I love

you ”

Dad:“ thank you baby and I love you and

remember that I’m the best dad when the
negotiations start ” what does that mean he
kisses my forehead then leaves.

Pres:“ that’s so beautiful the bond you have

with each other ”

Me:“ it’s the bond you’ll have too when your

relationship grows ”

Pres:“ yeah I hope so… ” he looks like he

wants to say something but decides against
it. I take my hand and hold his and he
smiles and wipes a tear off.
Me:“ when you’re ready to talk I’m here for
you ”

Him:“ I know baby sis I’m just thankful that

you guys welcomed me with open arms and
I won’t disappoint you guys ”

Mah:“ kids disappoint their parents all the

time pres but that doesn’t mean we should
love them less we love them harder and
show them the way ”

Pres:“ y’all are ruining my make-up okay

group hug ” pres though I giggle. We group
hug.

Mah:“ did you have colours in mind cause

we thought of champagne theme and décor
”

Me:“ champagne and something sparkly

like diamonds ”
Mah:“ you want diamonds at your wedding
real diamonds? ”

Pres:“ oh my God I love that idea! ” he says

screaming and we laugh

Me:“ well they don’t have to diamonds but I

would love some real one’s to be
incorporated into the wedding. Just some to
complement the champagne colour.

Pres:“ sims is going to go crazy over this ”

Me:“ we should have face timed her ”

Pres:“ she’s at work sis but she’s coming on

the weekend and were bringing her up to
speed with everything ”

Me:“ ok I’ll ask mbuso to find us diamonds

when am I meeting the interior designer ”
Pres:“ baby there’s no way in he I’m going
to allow my sister’s only wedding to be
done by someone else ”

Me:“ what? pres no!. You’re working and

when are you going to get time to make
everything happen? it’s going to get too
much for you ”

Him:“ I have a team sis besides mah here.

I’m going to give you everything you want in
your wedding ”

Me:“ ncoooh you’re the best brother ever! ”

Pres:“ of course I am ” we laugh

Mah:“ the designer comes with a make-up

artist so that’s covered and the theme too
for the traditional wedding is also
champagne colours? ”

Me:“ is it possible? ”
Pres:“ anything is possible with me and
money we have the black card remember?
”

Me:“ oh I had forgotten about that card

who’s catering? ”

Mah:“ we are still for someone cause we

want the best ”

Me:“ okay mah I’ll leave that up to you… . ”

my phone rings and I look at it and it’s my
husband to be. “ excuse me guys it’s my
man I have to take this pres help me get up
”

Mah:“ they way your stomach keeps

growing everyday you’d swear you’re
carrying twins ” what? I look at pres and he
shakes his head lightly
Him:“ or she might be carrying a big baby ”
we laugh he gets me up and I go to my
room and answer the call.

Me:“ sthandwa sam ” ( my love) I can feel

him smiling we talk on the and I miss him
more and he sounds like he’s exhausted
and it’s on the tip of my tongue to just ask
him to come home and forget about that
kan but I know he won’t do that. We hang
up and decide to show him something that
will make him smile.

I take off my dress and go stand in the

mirror and try to take pics I struggle at first
and I laugh at myself but I finally get one
that I know he will love. It’s me laying down
on my side on the mat facing the mirror like
that time he fucked me here I raise my left
leg up making sure I get the right angle
then snap and send and wait . I turn and
face up looking at the ceiling when a text
gets in and wow it’s a picture of his dick and
it’s hard… no caption. I get wet the moment
I see it and so I take my hand and play with
my hard nub looking at his dick and it
doesn’t take me long to cum then I just lay
down there cause how the fuck am I going
to get up I laugh at myself. I turn get on my
knees then hold on to the bathtub and get
up and go shower.
CHAPTER 33.

After taking a shower I go and join mah and

Preston they are having a deep
conversation about something and I guess
it’s about the wedding cause I don’t hear a
word they are saying. I wonder what these
two are talking about.

Me:“ what are you two gossiping about? ”

Pres:“ just wedding stuff ” he smiles hmmm

Me:“ I don’t believe you ” I say smiling

Mah:“ ok we thought you might be having
phone sex with your husband to be ” they
giggle

Me:“ mah you can’t say that and we weren’t

”

Pres:“ they why are you sleeping like you

have just taken a shower? ”

Me:“ I did cause I was sweaty ”

Mah:“ the way your blushing says otherwise

” I smile and look down cause they don’t
wanna know what I was doing to myself… I
wonder what mbuso would think if I told
him.

Me:“ leave me alone. Mah I have

beeneaning to ask you something ”

Mah:“ go ahead ”
Me:“ why did never get married after the
years mom died ”

Mah:“ you’re dad was mess for years and

when sicelo came back into our lives again
he got so much better and I thought height
meet someone serious and get married
again but he never did cause he always
said your mother is his soulmate ”

Me:“ but he shouldn’t live his life alone mah

he deserves to be loved again. Is he not
seeing anyone ” she smiles

Mah:“ no lungi baby I don’t know would you

like him to meet someone? ”

Me:“ yeah I would like to see him have

someone in his life who will make him feel
loved again ”
Mah:“ your dad is old school luh where will
he meet someone? ”

Me:“ I think I have someone in mind and I’m

going to invite them to the wedding ” I say
smiling

Pres:“ hmm do you think that’s a good

idea? ”

Me:“ I’m just going to invite her and let the

rest take care of itself so mami ”

Mah:“ what is it now ” she asks annoyed

then laughs

Me:“ why are you getting annoyed? ” I ask

her laughing

Her:“ cause when you call me that you

usually want to ask me for a favour and if it
includes your dad’s love life count me out ”
Me:“ it’s not about him it’s actually about
you ” she gets quiet

Her:“ what about me? ”

Me:“ well I just wanted to know if you don’t

mind me asking who’s the person you’re
dating ”

Pres:“ uhmm I’m gonna go and make

something to snack you want some luh? ”

Me:“ just water pres ”

Mah:“ sit down Preston ” she says to him

with a serious look to her face. “ why is it
important to you? ”

Me:“ I’m just curious that’s all ”

Mah:“ does it matter who’s the person I’m

dating? ”
Me:“ no it doesn’t mah as long as you’re
happy ”

Mah:“ I am happy and that’s all that should

matter to you not who he is and what he
does ”

Me:“ I wasn’t judging mah maybe I’m just

curious to know why we haven’t met him
yet and you never talk about him ”

Mah:“ that’s because my private life is mine

only and not anyone else’s. When I want
you to meet him you will meet him ” she
says getting a little bit angry

Me:“ why are you getting upset it was just a

simple question? ”

Pres:“ maybe we should… . ”

Mah:“ I’m a grown woman lungi and I don’t

need you to be asking me such questions ”
Me:“ mah you’re acting like you’re hiding
something or the person you’re dating. Do
we know him? ”

Mah:“ usuyangi phaphela manje! ” ( you’re

being too forward with me now!)

Pres:“ aunty she was just asking maybe

you… . ”

Mah:“ shut up Preston or I’ll slap the both of

you for not minding you’re business! ” she
says getting up

Me:“ I’m sorry mah I didn’t mean to be noisy

I was just asking ” she doesn’t say anything
and leaves then Zama and sicelo get in.

Sicelo:“ you look angry what’s wrong? ” she

asks mah
Mah:“ nothing ” she bangs the door behind
her

Pres:“ yoh ! ”

Me:“ why is she keeping it a secret? ”

Sicelo:“ what happened? ”

Me:“ I was asking her who she’s dating and

why we haven’t met him unless it’s
someone we know ”

Sicelo:“ oh ”

Me:“ what does that mean ”

Him:“ nothing ”

Me:“ you know who she’s dating right? ”

Him:“ it’s not my place to tell you but she

will when she’s ready ”
Me:“ does dad know him? ”

Him:“ he does ”

Me:“ and mbuso does too pres do you

know? ”

Pres:“ no baby sis I don’t know ” hmm I

don’t believe him so I let it go.

Me:“ is my house still okay? ”

Zama:“ you have a beautiful house ”

Me:“ thank you Zama. I hope you two didn’t

use my bed ” she blushes

Sicelo:“ we used your fleece blanket that’s

all ”

Pres:“ we did not want to hear that! ”

Me:“ oh too much information brother ” he
gets a call and leaves us. “ uh Zama if you
don’t mind I would like you to one of my
bridesmaids ”

Zama:“ really? O wow I would love too.

Thank you for asking me ”

Me:“ don’t sweat it I’m going to lay down a

bit you guys bond ”

Pres:“ ok baby sis we'll make dinner while

you go and rest a bit ”

Me:“ thanks guys ”

I go to my bedroom sit on the bed then take

my laptop and start ordering furniture for my
house here I want them to deliver before
the end of the week. I order from this great
furniture shop that make their own stuff
locally made so I order everything from
kitchen utensils to bathroom towels and
everything else I will need. But the time I’m
done I realise that I have spent so much
money and I smile who knew spending so
much money can make someone feel so
good ”

I must have fallen asleep because Zama

wakes me up. I look at my phone and it’s
8pm and see if there are any missed calls
from mbuso but there’s none.

Zama:“ I thought you were never going to

wake up ”

Me:“ I was ordering furniture for my house

but then I got stuck on what to do for the
room of the baby I want mbuso and I to do
it together ”

Her:“ that’s nice do you guys know what

you’re having ” I smile
Me:“ healthy beautiful bouncing baby with
all fingers and toes that all I want Zama ”

Her:“ does the baby feel heavy? ” I giggle

Me:“ no but I don’t know when the time

goes I’ll have to ask pres ”

Her:“ I like him he’s funny ”

Me:“ he’s amazing

Sponsored
did you guys talk? ”

Zama:“ yeah we did but I can’t tell you

cause he’s your brother ”

Me:“ I know but I’m just glad if you guys

managed to sort things out ”

Her:“ me too let’s go they are waiting for us

”
Me:“ I’ll be right there just let me wash my
face ”

Her:“ okay ” she leaves. I get up go and

wash my face then join my family in the
living room and everyone has seated and I
sit next to my dad.

Me:“ good evening family ” they greet back

and I look at mah and she’s looking down. “
the food smells nice what are we eating? ”

Pres:“ macaroni and cheese ”

Me:“ hmm yummy ”

Sicelo:“ everything is yummy with you ” we

laugh

Mah:“ let’s say grace ” I look at her and

she’s not looking at me I sigh and close my
eyes. “ father we thank you for the food you
have blessed us with today and we ask you
watch over us and all those we love who
are not here enjoying the meal with us
today Amen ”

Us:“ Amen ” I open my eyes and everyone

plates and we eat in silent and I’m
wondering if mbuso is eating too or has he
eaten his food.

Dad:“ maShenge when we have dinner in

this table we are usually never this quiet but
tonight is different and I don’t know why ” I
keep eating my food looking down I don’t
dare look at dad or mah.

Sicelo:“ I think we all had a long day and we

just want to rest ”

Mah:“ and maybe we said things we

shouldn’t have said ” I raise my head and
look at het

Me:“ I said I’m sorry mah ”

Dad:“ what’s going on? ” he asks sitting still
the head of the table concerned

Us:“ nothing ” all of us say excluding Zama

the we look at each other smile and then
laugh and dad looks confused.

Mah:“ I’m sorry for snapping at you I know

you meant well and I’ll tell you okay? ”

Me:“ I forgive and as long you’re happy

that’s all that matters to me ” we smile then
continue to best and talk.

I leave them and retire to my because the

make and cheese I had was good and I ate
too much if it and I’m now tired and feeling
sleepy. I take my phone and look at mbuso
and I really miss him. I touch my stomach
and my babies play. Mah is right my
stomach grows everyday.
I can’t wait to meet my kids touch them hold
them smell them and kiss them. I can’t wait
for our life to start as husband and wife and
parents. I know mbuso is going to be an
amazing cause he grew up surrounded by
both parents with a home filled with love but
for me I’m scared of what kind of mother
am I going to be but what I know for sure is
my kids won’t grow up the way I did cause
they’ll have not just me and mbuso and his
family only but my family too.

I want to get married to mbuso and show

him my love for him each and everyday of
my life cause that man deserves it. I have
all of this now my family because of him. No
one in this world would love mbuso like the
way I love him. He’s my Yang to my Ying
and I’ll continue to show him that he’s the
king of my heart my one and only soulmate.
I sleep with a smile to my face.
I’m in the kitchen when Zama walks in
looking like a mess like she didn’t sleep and
has been crying.

Me:“ good morning what’s wrong? ”

Her:“ morning luh I didn’t sleep well ”

Me:“ hmmmy brother kept you up all night ”

I giggle but she tears up God what did scelo
do now! “ look Zama I know you don’t know
me and I’m scelo sister and you’ll feel
uncomfortable sharing certain things with
and I understand but I want you to know
that if you ever need to talk to me I’m here
I’ll listen I won’t take sides or judge you ”

Her:“ thank you luh he left last night ”

MBUSO.

We flew for an hour and thirty minutes and

we have been here for five hours and we
landed at the airport then went to Sbu’s
house. He called his family to let them now
that we are coming and so they have to get
rooms ready for the kids. The women who
work at the orphanage came and took the
kids and left with them and surprisingly the
kids didn’t refuse or cry. The women and
the teenagers who live in Joburg are getting
ready to be taken to the airport and back to
their families and also the one who lives in
Bloemfontein but the one who lives in
Ermelo will never driven there. The women
from the orphanage came and brought
them clothes and they are now showering
and getting ready to go.

SBU:“ man you did great today you saved

all of these women and I’m sure their
parents and families are forever going to be
grateful ”

Me:“ but it’s you who made me aware that

someone is coming after me I couldn’t have
done this without all of you brothers ”

Bongs:“ we take care of our own brother

and where you die I’ll die with you ” I nod.

Me:“ always brothers Percy could have

fucked this whole thing up catching fucken
feelings for that women ”
SBU:“ I’m just glad that he won’t remember
anything about being in P.E ”

Me:“ I’m ready to go home now and see my

woman but first I have to go and see that
sniper being held at the farm ”

Sbu:“ I’ll like to go with you but I need a

different release if only you could still share
” he days chuckling

Me:“ man that will never happen! ”

Bonga:“ I could use one too ” we all laugh

Sbu:“ there’s someone I’m going to call you

game? ”

Bonga:“ hell yes! ”

Sbu:“ you know you watch since you won’t
join us ” I shake my head these two are
fools

Me:“ nope this dick only gets hard for one

person and one person only ” we laugh.

Sbu:“ man I don’t blame you I have seen

how she looks and it makes me wonder
how she fucken looks when she comes ”

Bonga:“ she looks breath taking man ”

what?

Me:“ What the fuck Siyabonga?! ” He

laughs

Bonga:“ relax brother I’m just kidding ” they

both laugh at me

Me:“ if you or even think of watching us

Siyabonga I swear I’ll kill you! ” well I don’t
mean it literally
Sbu:“ can I come and watch you guys? ” he
asks laughing

Me:“ man fuck you both no one is allowed

to see luh naked or how she looks when
she comes it’s only me who’s allowed ”

Sbu:“ asshole ” they laugh

Voice:“ uhm ” we turn and look and it’s that

young girl and O can’t remember her name
and she’s looking at us

Me:“ are you all done? ”

Her:“ they are all almost done I wanted to

ask if I can use your phone and call my
family ”

Me:“ oh sure… . ”
Sbu:“ there’s a phone in the kitchen you
can use it ”

Her:“ no I want to use a cell phone ” she

looks at me

Me:“ why a cell phone not a landline

phone? ”

Her:“ because I don’t want them to think I

was here in Durban all this time ” we look at
each confused

Bonga:“ little girl we’re grown ass men here

and we know what you’re trying to do! ” she
looks down

Her:“ what am I trying to do? ”

Me:“ look it’s fine here’s the phone call your

parents of family and put it on loud speaker
”
Her:“ it’s okay sir I’ll just use the landline ”
she goes to the kitchen

Me:“ did I miss something here? ”

Sbu:“ that little girl has a crush on you ” I

look at them like they are fucken crazy

Me;“ what? hell no! ” we laugh

Bonga;“ I’ve seen the way she looks at you

”

Me:“ what way ”

Sbu:“ the look that teenagers give when

they like you ”

Me:“ fuck no I don’t want that look guys

she’s just a confused little girl and she feels
vulnerable. I won’t entertain that stupid
crush you guys say she has ”
Bonga:“ why would she want your cell
phone to use and not use the landline ”

Me:“ I’m not having this stupid talk ” we

laugh.

Lady:“ we are all done now and ready to

leave ” thank God cause I’m ready to get
the fuck out of here.

Sbu:“ everyone is here? ” they all nod.

Lady:“ we just want to say thank you for

saving us from that monster and we’ll never
forget what you did for us. Well be forever
grateful ” we nod.

Me:“ just be careful and trust your instincts

if something doesn’t feel right cause it won’t
lie to you ”

Sbu:“ the women from the orphanage gave

you the information and details you will use
when you get home to see counsellors who
will help you ”

Me:“ be safe out there cause if it happens

again you won’t be this lucky I wish you well
and I hope to never see you guys again in
trouble ”

Bonga:“ all of you follow me ” they take their

little bags and follow bonga out then that
little girl stays behind and comes and
stands next to me.

Her:“ thank you sir for saving me and I’ll

never forget you ” she stands on her tip
toes and is about to kiss my cheek I think
but I still here and grab her arms.

Me:“ hold it right there! I’m old enough to be

your father so this crush you think you have
on me better stop cause I’m not the nice
man you think I am little girl. We saved all
of you cause you could have been our
daughter or niece. Go home live your life be
careful and date boys your age now go ” .
She looks at me shocked then leaves.

Sbu:“ we told you ” I shake my head

Me:“ let’s go ” we see them getting into a

car and the one that lives in Ermelo gets in
another one and they leave.

Sbu:“ you’re also leaving now ? ”

Me:“ Right now but I’m going to see sicelo

first before I go see my woman who’s
waiting for me ”

Bonga:“ wish I could and enjoy the show

but there’s someone we need to fuck first”
this fool I laugh

Him:“ it’s nice to have someone to come

home too ”
Me:“ brother it’s the best feeling ever ”

Him:“ we’ll I’ll see you tomorrow then ”

Me:“ we could all go now and you can take

that girl with you or find someone else at
Ladysmith then book yourselves into a hotel
cause I’m not about to make my wife’s
house a fuck pad ”

Sbu:“ let me call this girl man or find

someone else at Ladysmith then book
yourselves into a hotel cause I’m not about
to make my wife’s house a fuck pad ”

Sbu:“ let me call this girl man give me 10

minutes and then she’ll be here and we’ll all
go ”

Me:“ If she’s not here in in 15 minutes I’m

leaving your asses behind ” we get in the
house and the housekeeper gives us food
and we eat and my mind is no longer here
cause I just want to see my baby. Thirsty
minutes later the housekeeper cones to the
kitchen with a short dark skinned girl… ..

Sbu:“ you made it I almost left without you ”

Her:“ but I’m here now ” she says smiling

Sbu:“ these are my friends Mbuso and

Siyabonga ”

Bonga :“ buy you baby can call me bonga ”

I look at him bored

Her:“ Hi bonga and mbuso I’m Karabo ” I

knew I recognized her from somewhere
she’s ayanda friend… fucken hell.

Me:“ let’s go guys we’re taking two cars

right? ”

Bonga:“ no we’re all using one car ” fuck!

Her:“ wow sbu you never told me your
friends are this hot… Wow”

Me:“ I’ll be in the car ” I leave them and get

in the car. Sbu is fucking ayanda's friend
and I hope to God she’s not crazy like her
friend.

I’m in the drivers seat and they all get in

and sit in the backseat sandwiching karabo
between them it’s g king to be a long drive.
I connect my phone and listen to luh’s
favourite singer Sjava and sing along. I
must one day take her when he’s playing
somewhere so she can watch him live. I
look at the rear view mirror and see that
karabo's top is unbuttoned and sbu has his
head buried on her chest and bonga's hand
is inside her pants between her legs and is
kissing the hell out of her.

Me:“ are you guys seriously going to do this

while I’m driving? ”
Bonga:“ just drive brother ”

Me:“ fool ” I shake my head and continue to

drive but the smell of arousal is too much
so I slide down the window and turn the
music up cause she’s now screaming. The
NN3is not busy today so I press on the
accelerator and drive off cause I want to be
out of this damn car and two and half hours
later we arrive in Ladysmith and the girl
couldn’t stop screaming from being fucked
by both of them and sucking both dicks.
Thank God sbu always keeps condoms in
his car or else hmmm. I stop outside the
hotel.

Me: guys here’s the hotel I’m dropping you

off here cause I’m going to the farm ”

Sbu:“ well see you later bro ”

Me:“ not anytime soon ” they get off and
take their bags and I drive off to the farm. I
park the car and see sicelo's car my dad’s
car and luh’s dad’s car is also there. I get
out and Frank comes when he sees me

Frank:“ boss you look like a mess ” we

laugh and hug each other tight

Me:“ you have no idea I just need luh a bath

and some sleep ”

Him:“ they are waiting for you is it all over? ”

Me:“ not until those three are dead ”

Him:“ how is that fucked up Percy? ”

Me:“ we left him at Sbu’s house and one of

Sbu’s guys is watching him ”
Him:“I should have asked you to take him
with you he could have fucked up this
whole thing ”

Me:“ man I know how you holding up? ”

Him:“ man you don’t want to know ”

Me:“ that bad? ”

Him:“ I’ll sort it out brother ”

Me:“ let me know if there’s anyway I can

help. ”

Him:“ sure ” I’m worried about him I get

inside the barn and see all of them
surrounding what I think is that sniper guy ”

Dad:“ son you’re back ” says my dad and

why is he always here
Me:“ I am ” I look at the guy and he looks
like hell cause there’s blood everywhere ”

Mapholoba:“ where’s your brother and

friend ”

Me:“ they went somewhere ”

Dad:“ take that 5 litre bucket and go down

the river and wash yourself before you go
and see umaNgcobo ” I nod

Sicelo:“ you want to have your piece too? ”

Me:“ I’m good bro just kill the mother fucker

” I take the bucket and leave them and
frank follows me. I go to the river take off
my clothes and wash myself with that water
while I’m inside the running river. After I’m
done I out my clothes back on again and go
back to the farm.
Mapholoba:“ we need to deal with sipho
and thuli and you must decide what you
want to do with her but we all agree here
that she should die.

Me:“ I agree but what about her son? ”

Dad:“ she has a child? ”

Me:“ yes she thinks he is dead and he’s

living with other people who are raising him
”

Mapholoba:“ and you’re telling us this

because? ”

Me:“ I think buhle is Victor’s daughter and

he doesn’t know. I think we should take her
DNA and match it with Victor’s to be sure
then if we kill her then he can be able to
raise his grandson ”
Sicelo:“ or we don’t tell him and just kill her
”

Dad:“ how old is the boy? ”

Me:“ 12 years old ”

Mapholoba:“ let’s do a DNA test first then

see what the results say but mbuso if this
girl lives and makes my daughters life hell
again I will blame you ”

Me:“ I won’t let that happen I’m going to see

her now ”

Mapholoba:“ the money I am going to fine

you for sleeping with my daughter under my
roof ”

Me:“ I don’t care as long as she’s going to

be my wife ” I say smiling
Dad:“ don’t ask for too much money
Ngcobo ” we laugh

Me:“ I’m going to take luh to our house I’ll

see you I don’t know when ”

Mapholoba :“ but she’s fine here ”

Me:“ I want us to grow our kids without

worrying if someone will hear us ” we all
laugh excluding Mapholoba.. He takes the
blade and shoves it on the snipers thigh
and the guy screams. I get in my car and
drive to luh’s Father’s house. I park the car
then get in without knocking

Mah:“ where are your manners mbuso why

didn’t you knock”

Me:“ hello aunty have you told luh who

you’re fucking? ”
Her:“ fuck you mbuso ” I laugh and leave
her looking pissed and go to luh's bedroom
and find her sleeping peacefully. I look at
the time and it’s 4pm I sit down next to her
take my hand and feel my kids and they
play and I smile watching her sleeping.

My phone vibrates and it’s a text message

from a number I don’t know.

“ thank you for saving my nieces life. If you

ever need anything use this number and I’ll
help ” how did they know it was me and
where did they get my number?...i'll look at
it tomorrow. I smile then look at luh and lay
down then bring her body close to my mine
and whisper in her ear “ I’m home baby ”
and she sighs.

My body gets covered in goose bumps and

and wiggle my ass to mbuso's dick that is
poking me. My boo is back but God what is
that awful smell that is all over my bedroom

Me:“ aren’t we in a hurry? ”

Him:“ yes we are ” I laugh we get in the car

Me:“ ok ”

Him:“ five minutes love don’t take long ”

Me:“ I won’t ” I take my clothes then get in

and shower. After a few minutes he comes
and takes off his clothes and watches me
shower. His dick is standing proud facing
up with veins all over it and my mouth
waters and I press my legs hard together.
He gets in the shower takes my washing
cloth and washes my back my legs and
ass. I try to touch his dick but he stops me.

Him:“ patience love ” he closes the tap

opens the door then takes my towel and
dries me slowly and perfectly and I just
want you feel his hands all over my body

Me:“ boo ”

Him:“ shhhh ” he shuts me up with a kiss

and I try to touch him again but he stops me
why won’t he let me touch him?.

Me:“ I want to touch you ” he chuckles

Him:“ and you will love go to bed and watch

the television and don’t change the channel
baby watch what is playing ” but I don’t
want to watch the TV.

Me:“ ok what is playing? ”

Him:“ you’ll see love and when you are on
the bed turn the volume up ” he kisses me
again then takes the towel off and looks at
me smiling and I shake my head smiling
then go to our bedroom and I go straight to
bed take the TV remote and sit on the
middle of the bed and then watch the TV
and oh my God I’m shocked!. I look at the
bathroom door expecting to see him there
but he’s not. My God he wants me to watch
this?… .. I turn the volume up and hear
those soft sounds of kisses and moans.

There’s a porn movie of lesbians playing

and wow I’m speechless cause I never
expected that I’ll be watching this. I take the
pillows and put them perfectly behind my
back then lay down and watch two girls
making out and I must say it is one of the
most erotic things I have ever seen. The
way they kiss each other with their lips how
they touch each other and oh man now one
girl is laying on top of another and rubbing
herself against her leg wo!.

I feel my hands making their way down my

legs and I open them and play with my clit
and I’m so damn wet from watching two
girls kissing each other the other girl is now
opening her legs so the other one can get
between them to make their vaginas touch
and oohhh God they start to rub against
each other scissors style clit on clit and
Fuck me it looks so damn hot. The sounds
they are making are making me feel hot all
over my body I moan and rub myself close
my eyes then feel mbuso’s hands taking off
my and I look at him and he’s looking and
me like he’s going to ravish me I shake a
little.

Mbuso:“ look at them and don’t stop

watching and don’t touch me love ” he says
laying done on his stomach between my
legs then buries his head between my
thighs and eats me like crazy.

Me:“ I… I don’t think I can ooooh God! ” he

nips my clit and sucks on it then goes to my
pussy hole and tongue fucks me and I
move my hips the best I can and fuck his
face but he holds me down on my waist.

Him:“ I’m going to stop cause you’re not

watching love ” he says eating me like a
watermelon the groans and I look at the TV
again and now the girls are both kissing
and finger fucking each other and I moan
loud and play with my sensitive boobs and
they feel so heavy. I pinch them then take
my other hand and go rub my clit with it and
I’m so slippery very wet. I move my hand
between my clit to inside mbuso's mouth
and fuck me his mouth is so warm and his
beard rubbing my inner thighs is creating
that feeling which drives me crazy
Him:“ fuck yes baby rub yourself! ” I rub my
clit and moan then he holds my ass and
raises To his face his forearms on the bed
his forearms on the bed my ass in the air
then he separates my ass cheeks and run
his tongue from my pussy to my other hole
and I freeze. “ you stop I stop baby watch
the damn TV luh ! ” I watch the girls again
and now they are eating each other’s
pussies and the way they move their
tongues around the clit makes me feel like
they are the ones sucking mine but I stop
watching them cause the sight before me
takes my breath away.

I watch as mbuso flexes his ass on the bed

moving his hips up and down like he’s
fucking me but he’s fucking the bed while
eating me….oh God then his tongues goes
back again there to my tight ring and
tongue fucks it gently and my body start to
shake fuck me I’m going to come. He goes
to my clit again and nips it then rubs his
chin sideways on my pussy hole and
tongues my clit at the same time and I
forget about what he said about not
touching him cause I raise my legs up high
and hold his head down and he groans then
I fuck his face and cum screaming his name
over and over again shaking then he
quickly gets up jerks his dick up and down
then his hot seed shoots out hot and heavy
landing on my stomach boobs and some on
my chin and I take it with my fingers bring it
to my mouth and swallow all of it and it
tastes yummy.

Him:“ rub it on your breasts and stomach ”

he says groaning looking at me still jerking
off the last of his warm seed. I do as he
says and he looks at me very proud. “ do
you know how much I love you Lungile ? ”
the way he says it reminds of that first time
he said my name and my skin gets covered
in goose bumps and a chill runs all over my
body.
Me:“ I do know ”

Him:“ you are more than my soulmate you

are my soul lungi only you have the power

and that is to destroy me ”

Me:“ are you okay baby? ”

Him:“ I’m blessed to have you baby and our

kids are blessed to be carried by such an
amazing and wonderful woman ” he turns
and lays me on my side facing him then he
takes both my legs and puts them over his
right thigh then enters me softly and we
both moan.

Him:” take my hand and look at me ” we

bind our hands together and he plays with
my ring finger while making love to me so
soft and tender nice and slow. He brings his
upper body close to my stomach and starts
suckling on my nipples and I moan he picks
up the pace and takes my legs into his
arms and holds them together then fucks

deep stroke he gives me

arms not saying anything but our bodies
doing all the talking. I am happy I am
content.

Me:“ are you okay love? ”

Me:“ I am content when I’m with you ”

Her:“ I am complete because of you ”

Me:“ no man will ever experience the love

and happiness you always make me feel.
You are mine and mine alone you belong to
me and only me ”

Her:“ You’re mine mbuso and no woman

will ever succeed trying to take you away
from and our kids this is the only place you
know is home and no other place will ever
feel like is home without me and your kids ”

Me:“ this is home baby and my dick only

gets hard for you ”

Her:“ I’ll chop it off if it ever does ”

Me:“ baby your love is like a portion that

keeps getting stronger each and everyday ”
Her:“ maybe I should give you a love potion
” we both laugh

Me:“ do it baby cause with or without it I’m

not going anywhere. Only death will take
me away from you ”

Her:“ is it over? ” I sigh

Me:“ yeah it is but we still need to deal with

buhle sipho and thuli ”

Her:“ I know but maybe buhle deserves

another chance boo ” not this again I get up
cause anything that reminds me of what
that girl did to me makes me want to kill
her

Me:“ let’s go and take a bath together ”

Her:“ no we are still talking ” she says

sitting up
Me:“ I don’t want to talk about them now ”

Her:“ when are we ever going to talk about

her? ”

Me:“ love let this go please ”

Her:“ she saved me and you know that in

her fucked up way she did and I think I owe
it to her to at least give her a second
chance”

Me:“ I want that woman out of our lives

forever luh and I mean it ”

Her:“ I hear you but that doesn’t mean she

has to die though ”

Me:“ how much more trouble do you want

buhle to cause luh cause incase you have
just forgotten the man who I went and killed
was also going to be using you as his sex
slave and use you for pornographic movies
and other sick things. The man who’s
brother buhle promised you! ”

Her:“ but that doesn’t mean we should

ignore the one right thing she did! ”

Me:“ are you fucken kidding me right now

luh? what is that right thing she did? ”

Her:“ she gave me you ” she says tearing

up and I sigh and sit down and take her
hands and look at her

Me:“ love me and you were destined to be

together and we were going to meet even if
I didn’t know her cause I know fates
brought us together not that damn girl ”.

Her:“ I know but I don’t want her death to be

on my conscience ”

Me:“ believe it’s not cause one way or

another buhle's sins were going to catch up
on her and if it wasn’t us who got her
someone somewhere would have gotten
her and she would be probably dead by
now so her death is not going to be your
fault ”

Her:“ I hear you ”

Me:“ you have to stop this thing of blaming

yourself for other people’s decisions and
actions ” she says looking at me

Her:“ I know ”

Me:“ I have to tell you something ”

Her:“ that sounds serious ”

Me:“ it is but I’m not sure how you’re going

to take it ”

Her:“ is it that bad? ”

Me:“ I don’t know how you’ll look at it ”

Her:“ tell me ”

Me:“ I don’t want us to start our marriage

with lies and secrets ”

Her:“ what did you do mbuso? ”

Me:“ what happens was before I knew

about you and I didn’t even know myself
until that time you were in the hospital at
Pietermaritzburg when I got that message
from your brother ”

Her:“ I’m listening ” she looks so serious

right now and I didn’t think it was going to
be this hard to tell her. I look at her

Me:“ well you know that we were keeping

buhle at sicelo’s house so he was at a club
when Celeste sent him a text message
telling him that buhle is high on drugs and
saying something ”

Her:“ what was she saying? ”

Me:“ sicelo then tells me to come to Durban

and you remember I left that day and went
there and when I got there Celeste played
me the video ”

Her:“ where is the video I want to see it? ”

Me:“ sicelo has it ”

Her:“ I know you have it too and you’ll show

me it but what exactly did she say ”

Me:“ in the video she said that we have a

child together ” she tries to pull her hands
off from mine but I grip them tight

Her:“ mbuso let go of me! ”

Me:“ no we are going to sit here and you’ll
listen to everything I have to say ”

Her:“ listen to you telling me that you have

a fucken child with her? buhle?! ”

Me:“ will you please listen to me and stop

shouting ”

Her:“ and if I don’t? ”

Me:“ you’ll upset my kids and be

hospitalized for the rest of your pregnancy
and I’ll be forced to be here in this house all
alone do you want that? ”

Her:“ go ahead I’m listening ”

Me:“ she lied at first then when she saw

how mad I was and I forced it out of her she
finally said that we have a child together
and I couldn’t remember the time where I
fucked her and not used protection so I
asked her ”

Her:“ you mean you would fuck her and not

remember? ”

Me:“ luh please let me finish the you can

judge me all you want ” that shut her up. “ I
forced it out of her and that’s when she said
that there was this one time in the club and
I was stressed about something I can’t
remember what then she bought me a drink
that she spiked and then drugged and had
her way with me ”

Her:“ wait! you say buhle bought you a

drink that was drugged and you didn’t know
you took it then passed out and she raped
you?! ”

Me:“ yeah cause I didn’t remember us

sleeping together and then she got
pregnant with my child ”
Her:“ oh my God! ”

Me:“ Mike was there and so he helped her

get me to the house after she was done
and I woke up the next day not remember
anything but only that I was drunk the night
before ”

Her:“ I think Mike is the same friend that

told that man that you’re the one who killed
his brother ”

Me:“ it is him ”

Her:“ wow so how come you didn’t know

about the pregnancy until now cause I too
have never seen buhle pregnant ”

Me:“ she got scared when she found out

that she was and knew that I will find out
and so she had an abortion and killed the
child ”
Her:“ your child mbuso she raped you then
killed your child ” she says so said and soft

Me:“ she did ”

Her:“ I can’t believe buhle is this wicked ”

Me:“ you know but you still want to see the

good in her ”

Her:“ I’m sorry she did all those things to

you why did you decide to tell me ”

Me:“ cause I didn’t want secrets between us

and because I have to do a cleansing
ceremony name the child so it can be
known by my ancestors and so it won’t
cause harm to my kids that you’re carrying ”

Her:“ how do we know she really did have

an abortion? ”
Me:“ there are. Medical records ”

Her:“ here I thought that I am going to be

the only woman who’s ever going to carry
your kids but buhle did it first as always ”
fuck no!

Me:“ look at me and listen to me carefully

luh. You are the only women who will carry
my kids and not anyone else before you
matters especially that girl. These are my
first kids and many more will come out from
this womb only do you understand? ”

Her:“ I understand how do you know about

this cleaning thing? ”

Me;“ Cassie bonga’s ex girlfriend once had

an abortion without telling him and he
started having problems the lost his other
child the girl decided to keep and when my
family went to see the traditional healer he
told them it’s because the first child didn’t
want to be alone and felt unrecognized by
the ancestors and so I don’t want that for
my kids ”

Her:“ thank you for telling me ” but she

sounds down now and I don’t what to say to
make her feel okay.

Me:“ but you don’t sound okay love ”

Her:“ I’m just sad that she violated you and

here I am busy asking you not to kill her ”

Me:“ I’m okay my love and I get why you

were saying that ”

Her:“ I’m going to bath now can you over is

something to eat? ”

Me:“ you don’t want me to join you? ”

Her:“ no cause well end up fucking each
other again and I need you to keep your
hands to yourself cause I’I sore ”

Me:“ ok baby you need help? ”

Her:“ help me with the water then wash my

back and feet ”

Me:“ let’s go ” I help her get up and she

hugs me with our kids playing

Her:“ she will pay ” she says so soft and I

almost didn’t hear her and I look at her and
she kisses my chest and drags me to the
bathroom and I wonder what she means by
that I let it go for now.

SICELO.
The sniper drops dead in the floor and the
life drains out of him we have killed the last
person who is a threat to my sister other
than the mazibuko's. I can’t believe mbuso
thinks that Victor is buhle's father I mean
what else does he know that we don’t
know. The guys clean up the mess and go
burn the body of the sniper.

Me:“ are we going to watch the videos and

footage the guys brought? ”

Dad:“ I can’t look those videos and see

young kids like that I have nieces and
nephews that age and I’m qbout to be a
grandfather and I don’t want lose my mind
watching those things and think what if it
happens to them… . It could have
happened to your sister had mbuso had not
intervened and saved her ”

Me:“ it scares me to think that maybe

there’s more we don’t know ”
Gumede:“ what I know about my son is that
he will move heaven and earth for your
daughter ”

Dad:“ you raised a good man gumede you

should be proud ”

Gumede:“ your children are great

mapholoba and they take after their parents
”

Me:“ thank you dad’s ” they chuckle

Dad:“ now this thing of Buhle and Victor

what do we do? ”

Gumede:“ we are starting the negotiations

soon and I want everything to be smooth
and those people gone cause we can’t
keep postponing and waiting for mangcobo
to give birth ”
Dad:“ Victor will be here tomorrow and we
will put all of them in the room and hear
what secrets they are going to tell us. I’m
tired of knowing that they are still alive. I
want it over too ”

Mapholoba:“ if buhle is Victor’s daughter

then that would mean he met thuli first and
got her pregnant but t hen how does she
end up being with his brother? ”

Me:“ maybe they were playing tag team ”

they look ate like I’m crazy then burst out
laughing

Dad:“ what is wrong with you seen? ”

Mapholoba:“ the things these kids do will

shock you ”

Me:“ it’s just a thought dad ”

Dad:“ nah I guess we will find out tomorrow
”

Me:“ did you really give ayanda one million

rands? ”

Him:“ yes I did ”

Me:“ why would you give her that? ”

Him:“ sicelo the day you have kids you will

understand why you would do anything to
make sure your kids are safe and protected
no matter how old they are. That girl you
invited in your life is going to cause
problems ”

Me:“ when we took a walk with Preston he

told me that ayanda might be bipolar well
he said he’s sure that she has bipolar that’s
why when I met her she was a completely
different person than what you guys saw ”
Him:“ which means she stopped taking
medication ”

Me:“ it is possible ”

Mapholoba:“ or she might have

schizophrenia ”

Me:“ but how mapholoba? ”

Mapholoba:“ people with bipolar are usually

depressed and often isolate themselves
and may experience psychotic episodes but
people with schizophrenia experience
delusions hallucinations and psychosis so
sometimes schizophrenia might be
confused to bipolar ”

Me:“ then she definitely is schizophrenic

cause the delusional she would have were
too much for me ”

Dad:“ where did Frank take her? ”

Me:“ she’s right here in one of the rooms in
the basement next to where buhle is ”

Mapholoba:“ what are you planning to do to

her? ”

Me:“ I thought I would just keep her locked

up and maybe she’ll straighten up and get
in line ”

Mapholoba:“ you have to admit her to the

hospital psychosis centre so she can
treated before her psychosis gets worse ”

Me:“ I’ll admit her tomorrow ”

Dad:“ no sicelo call them now and they will

come and take her ”

Mapholoba:“ no I’ll call them and go with

her to the hospital cause she has to be
evaluated before she can be admitted ”
Me:“ mapholoba please make sure you
keep her there for as long as she can stay
cause if she gets out still worse I might
have to get rid of her ”

Dad:“ she’ll stay away if she knows what’s

good for her what was the tension in the
house about between your sister and your
aunt? ”

Me:“ she asked aunty who she’s dating and

she didn’t like that ”

Dad:“ well she has to tell her at some point

she can’t keep hiding it ”

Me:“ maybe she’s afraid that she won’t

accept him ”

Mapholoba:“ whom is she dating do I know

him? ” we and dad both chuckle
Dad:“ oh you know him very well my friend ”
we all laugh

Mapholoba:” let call the hospital in Durban ”

he gets up and calls them.

Me:“ when did you last talk to the

mazibuko’s ? ”

Dad:“ yesterday sipho is still broken over

the loss of his son ”

Me:“ yeah thami didn’t deserve to die ”

Dad:“ well they are dying too tomorrow and

I hope they go to hell ”

Me:“ what are you going to do them ”

Dad:“ the rats are already here and they are

hungry ”
Me:“ I hope I don’t get sick watching them
getting eaten ”

Dad:“ it’s going to be music to my ears ” he

laughs

Me:“ I never thought we will ever get this

day get our revenge ”

Dad:“ it’s finally here ”

Me:“ I’m sure they are nervous cause they

heard that fool screaming ”

Dad:“ they should be ”

Mapholoba:“ first thing tomorrow morning

they will be here ”

Dad:“ let’s go home then and get something

to eat ”

Mapholoba:“ I miss mangcobo's cooking”

Me:“ we are definitely not going to their
house ” we all laugh

Mapholoba:“ my beautiful shy daughter in

law ”

Me:“ she’s not that shy when she’s with

mbuso ”

Them:“ shut up scelo! ” I laugh and get in

my car and they follow behind me. My
phone rings and I look at the number it’s
bonga.

Me:“ where are you fool? ”

Him:“ man I’m having the time of my life ”

huh?

Me:“ having the time of your life where and

with whom? ”
Him:“ sbu and some girl mbuso dropped us
off at the hotel but we’re done here? ”

Me:“ are you telling me that you and sbu

had a threesome? ” I asked him shocked

Him:“ the best done and dusted ” I can feel

his smile and I chuckle

Me:“ you lucky son of a gun ”

Him:“ we are going to come and see you so

we can talk about what we are going to do
to the footage and that orphanage in
Newcastle ”

Me:“ ok brother I’m on my way home ”

Him:“ oh sbu asks if you don’t mind if we

bring the girl with us? ”

Me:“ as long as you won’t continue where

you left off under my fathers house ”
Him:“ man I’m not my brother ”

Me:“ hmmm I’ll see you guys just now ” I

hang up and shake my head. I left Zama
sleeping didn’t call her the whole day and
it’s late now and I know she’s very pissed. I
get in the yard park my car and the dads
too park theirs then I get in the house and
find mah Zama and Preston cooking and
laughing. She fits perfectly with my family
they don’t see me so I go to my bedroom
and shower quickly and change then join
them in the kitchen. Zama has gotten all
shy and is now not talking but just cooking
and the only thing missing now is her
barefoot and pregnant I smile to myself.

Dad:“ dad’s love son it makes you smile

alone like you’re crazy ” they all laugh

Me:“ it’s the woman who’s cooking our

dinner that’s making me smile ” she looks at
me a little and smiles…damn she’s
beautiful.

Mapholoba:“ I wonder what will her family

say when they hear she’s already doing her
wifely duties ”

Me:“ I won’t tell ”

Zama:“ but I will ” they all laugh

Me:“ don’t worry maShenge I’m going to

send my family to yours after luh's wedding
”

Man:“ are you proposing marriage sicelo? ”

Me:“ yes mah ” I say smiling

Dad:“ well it looks like soon this house will

be filled with many children ”
Mapholoba:“ and you Preston when are you
having kids? ” he goes quiet

Preston:“ we’ll bab' uGumede I can’t exactly

have kids ” he says sadly

Mapholoba:“ are you infertile? ”

Preston:“ not that I know of ” he wipes his

forehead

Mapholoba:“ then what is the problem? ”

Me:“ uhmmm dad ”

Mapholoba:“shut up scelo I’m talking with

you ” this man is worse than my dad

Preston:“ I… for me to do that it would… ”

Mapholoba:“ Preston look at me when I’m

talking to you ” Preston is shaking now man
I don’t like seeing him this way he looks at
mapholoba.

Mapholoba:“ Preston I know that you are

gay and I don’t have a problem with it I only
asked you when are you having kids that’s
all. This is a new South Africa and gay men
are allowed to get married and I think you
can adopt kids too or buy an egg cause
women now sell their eggs then have a
surrogate to carry your child or partners
child. Don’t you want to have kids? ”
Preston breaks down and cries then zama
holds his hand and mah hugs him.

Preston:“ I don’t know what to say… . I.. I

have never been accepted by my family
they beat it out of me and when that didn’t
work they forced me to change and date
women and still I was still me then they
decided to get criminals who mugged me
and they…they raped me thinking I will
change. My father said he hired those man
to show me that it is something I don’t want
then disowned me now why would I want to
bring kids to this messed up world? ”

Mapholoba:“ I’m sorry your own family did

that especially your fathe Preston. Kids are
a gift that comes from God and it doesn’t
matter what shape or form they come out
with. As parents we must accept and love
them for who they are not what they have
and I am sure you have realized that in this
Gumede- Ngcobo family we love and
accept everyone who only has pure
intentions for these families and you being
here is not by a mistake. Sometimes the
family we choose for ourselves is the best
one than the one we were born with and
these families are for you. You claimed
them and they claimed you back now why
would I want to bring kids to this messed up
world? ”
Mapholoba:“ I’m sorry your own family did
that especially your fathe Preston. Kids are
a gift that comes from God and it doesn’t
matter what shape or form they come out
with. As parents we must accept and love
them for who they are not what they have
and I am sure you have realized that in this
Gumede- Ngcobo family we love and
accept everyone who only has pure
intentions for these families and you being
here is not by a mistake. Sometimes the
family we choose for ourselves is the best
one than the one we were born with and
these families are for you. You claimed
them and they claimed you back well I do
as the head of Gumede not your brother
mbuso ” we all laugh that was deep I hope
Zama heard.

Preston:“ thank you dad ” he says crying.

Mapholoba:“ come and give dear old dad a

hug ” he goes to him and they hug dad pats
me on my shoulder and I look at him and
smile then look at zama and mah they are
wiping their tears off.

Mah:“ who needs some wine ” she says

breaking the tension and we all. Laugh

Me:“ I need something strong cause the

onions your cutting are making me cry ” we
laugh
Mah :“ go set the table scelo ”

Me:“ but mah sis nonto is going to set the

table ”

Her:“ go man scelo is luh and mbuso Oh

never mind! ” we laugh again. I go to the
dining room and start setting the table when
I hear bonga's loud laugh in the kitchen
they are already here. I add three more
plates for those two and their guest. I go to
the kitchen and see those two fools well I
know of sbu but we haven’t actually met
and the girls they came with is facing away
from me so I can’t exactly see her face.

Me:“ how’s it guys ”

Bonga:“ brother this is sibusiso Mbatha

mbuso’s friend you’ve heard about him…
well he’s our friend ” he says we broke hug

Sbu:“ nice to finally meet you brother ” we

shake hands and bro hug

Me:“ me too man and who’s your lady friend

” he looks at me and I raise my eyebrows
and three of us laugh.

Sbu:“ oh this is our friend karabo ” hh? I

round the kitchen island and go stand next
to Zama and see the karabo who is in my
kitchen is the same karabo who is ayanda's
friend.

Me:“ karabo? ”
Karabo:“ hi scelo ” she says shyly looking
down and embarrassed

Mah:“ you know each other? ” I look at

zama and she’s looking at me

Me:“ uh..yes I know her she’s ayanda’s

friend ”

Mah:“oh Jesus ” Zama shakes her head

Mapholoba:“ who’s your boyfriend between

the two? ” he asks her

Karabo:“ we are just friends sir ”

Mah:“ hmmmm ”

Me:“ where is ayanda? ” I ask her cause I

want to know what she knows and if
ayanda did call her
Her:“ I haven’t heard from her in days I
don’t know where she is ”

Me:“ what is really wrong with her? ”

Zama:“ why do you care? ” she asks softly

Karabo:“ who is she? ”

Me:“ she’s nothing to you answer my

question ”

Her:“ she’s not sick if that’s what you’re

asking me she just forgets to take her
medication ”

Me“ what kind? ”

Her:“ did you dump her? is that why she

was acting all crazy ”

Mah:“ so she is crazy? ”

Me:“ I’m the one asking questions here ”

Her:“ her family has a history of mental

illness but she’s taking her medication and
she was doing well until she met tshepo
and he started abusing her but then she
said you’re cheating on her and many other
things ”

Mah:“ are you crazy too? ”

Her:“ no I’m not ”

Mah:“ hmm the company you keep sbusiso

bonga and you scelo…”

Me:“ but… ”

Her:“ ay shut up man nonto can please find

something this girl will wear to cover herself
up cause she looks naked ” I look at her
and she’s wearing a dress that has her
arms and shoulders bare it stops just above
her chest I feel Zama kicking my leg and I
look at her shocked

Me:“ why are you kicking me? ”

Her:“ cause your eyes are wondering ”

nonto gives her one of her dress aprons
and it looks big on her and Preston laughs
then stops.

Mah:“ let’s go to the dining room and have

dinner all of you wash your hands here! ”
she says then leaves then Zama and
Preston follow here and karabo stays
behind.

Karabo:“ does that mean you’re now

single? ” she asks me and I look at bonga
and sbu to deal with her. I wash my hands
then leave them and sit down where I
usually sit and the dads come and sit too.
Karabo sits next to me where luh usually
sits and Zama is opposite facing me I look
at her smiling and she doesn’t look happy.

Mah:“ let’s say grace ” we close our eyes

and mah prays then we did up and start to
eat when I feel karabo feeling my dick and I
almost choke on my drink. I take my hand
and grab hers hard and I hear her wincing
in pain but she still won’t stop instead she
grips it tight and strokes it through my pans
and I feel my dick getting hard. Fuck!

Plates are and forks are clicking the dads

are talking and the guys and fuck me
karabo continues to stroke my dick and it is
hard now and getting tight in my pants. I
grab her hand again and it’s like this girl is
intolerant to pain. I close my eyes and think
of ways to make my hard on not so hard

Karabo:“ so what’s your name again cause

I didn’t catch it? ”
Zama:“ I didn’t throw it ”

Karabo:“ so you must be scelo current

girlfriend? ”

Preston:“ we don’t bring girlfriends in this

family we bring brides and grooms. Which
one are you? ”

Zama:“ no. ” what the fuck! I look up and

see her like she wants to cry

Me:“ what the fuck does that mean Zama? ”

Zama:“ can I be excused baba? ” she asks

my dad and my dad nods and she gets up
and I get up too

Me:“ Zama what is wrong? ” she gasps

shocked looking at my… . Oh fuck me!!!!!!. I
cover myself and look at her and she looks
shattered then she leaves the table with her
head held high and I go after her
Me:“ Zama Zama wait I’m sorry! ”

Mah:“sies scelo sies man! why do you like

making a fool out of this girl? ” I hear mah
shouting after me. “ and you should be
ashamed of yourself! if it isn’t your friend it’s
you hhay man and you stupid boys brings
these stupid women in my brothers house
better be the last time! ”

Zama locks the door before I even get there

and I knock and she doesn’t answer instead
I hear her soft cries damn I’m such a screw
up after I promised her that I won’t hurt her
again but yet again I just did ”
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 35.

SICELO.

I keep knocking and knocking but she still

won’t let me in. How can I be this weak and
stupid. How could I embarrass the woman I
love? I basically proposed marriage to her
in front of my family then I go and become a
week little boy who has just gotten his first
experience of getting his dick felt. I fucked
up I really did and the reason I did that is
because the picture of bonga and sbu
fucking some woman at the same time kept
on playing on my mind and that is not an
excuse as to why I kept letting her touch my
dick cause I don’t well know I could have
stopped it at any time.

I go back to the living room and mah is

fucken livid. She has never looked at me
this way so disappointed and I don’t blame
her. I look at this bitch and I just want to
fucken blow her brains off.

Dad:“ so this is the man my son has come

to be? ” they get quiet and I just stand there
like a teenage boy that has been caught
sneaking back from getting drunk with his
friends.

Me:“ Cha Mapholoba ” ( no dad)

Dad:“ are you man who let’s his dick control

him? ”

Me:“ no dad ”
Mnguni:“ is this the kind of company you
keep Siyabonga and you Sibusiso? ”

Them:“ Cha Mnguni ”

Mnguni:“ you are all a disappointment look

at how mbuso has cleaned up his act and
manned up you all should follow his lead
and stop this thing of yours fucken women
at the same time ” what the hell? we look at
each other shocked.
Dad:“ you kids think we are stupid and we
don’t know what happens in our kids lives
heh? ” we don’t say anything

Mnguni:“ we keep tabs on everything kids

and you should always know that whatever
you do we are always one step in front of
you ”

Bonga:“ baba we are just having fun ”

Mnguni:“ bonga having fun is us having a

braai and drinking with our friends and
family that’s having fun. Using someone’s
daughter to satisfy your urges is not. ”

Dad:“ this thing you are doing was fun and

good when you were young men but grown
men don’t do this thing. All of you here are
supposed to be married and having your
own families but you don’t cause you’re
busy satisfying your dicks and dicks don’t
get satisfied. You can have relations with
this girl in the morning and at midday you
would want another one. Are you going to
be the kind of men who are controlled by
their urges and what their dicks want? ”

Mapholoba:“ do any of you here see this girl

as someone you could marry? ”

Us:“ No!. ” karabo looks at us shocked and

embarrassed. I know for a fact that I could
never want another man to look at Zama
naked and give her that kind of pleasure it
will kill me.

Dad:“ girlie you should stop letting men like

these use you as their toy they use when
there are bored. Know your worth and don’t
be someone’s play thing” she nods looking
down embarrassed

Mah:“ all of you are almost forty fucken

years old but you are behaving like twenty
two year olds busy bringing rubbish in this
home!. Sibusiso your parents are going to
be so disappointed when they hear what riff
raff you hand around with. Scelo you
proposed marriage to that girl an hour ago
but you couldn’t pass the opportunity to
embarrass her again it was ayanda at first
then her friend. What the fuck is wrong is
you?! ” She says then leaves I have never
heard mah use the fuck word before and
see her this mad.

Dad:“ let it be the last time all of you bring

women here unless you know they are your
future wives do you understand me? ”

Us:“ we do mapholoba ”

Me:“ I’m sorry everyone ”

Preston:“ Zama deserves better than this

brother ” he’s disappointed too

Me:“ pres… . ”
Pres:“ save your sorry for Zama ” he leaves
and I know he’s going to her and I hope
they don’t call luh and tell her fuck she’s
going to be so mad. The dads leave and it’s
just us left.

Me:“ karabo what was your intension

exactly? ”

Her:“ don’t pretend like you didn’t like it ”

Bonga:“ what exactly happened? ”

Me:“ she was giving me a hand job I

stopped her and she continued to do it ”

Her:“ and you liked it cause if you didn’t

your dick would get hard for me. Let’s face
it scelo you wanna fuck me too like them.
So the question is do you three want to fuck
me or you want Zama and me only? ”she
says coming towards me.
Zama:“ touch him again bitch and you’ll see
what I’ll do to you! ” I hear Zama saying
followed by Preston

Karabo:“ you’ll do want cause I’m not

scared of you?! ”

Zama:“ you don’t want to know ”

Karabo:“ bitch don’t get ate just because his

dick got hard for me! deal with your man. ”

Zama:“ oh believe me I will but now I want

you to stay the hell away from my man get
your own damn man that you can touch and
do whatever the fuck that is you want. ”

Karabo:“ you keep saying he’s you man but

I haven’t heard him claim you as his ”

Me:“ not that you need to know but she’s

mine and mine alone ”
Karabo:“ you mean she’s yours now until
you meet someone else cause it wasn’t that
long before you were with ayanda and now
you’re with this dull bitch! don’t make me
laugh ”

Me:“ she has been with since she was 19

she’s been there with me through it all not
that you need to know. Ayanda was just a
phase and a forgotten memory now it would
do you better to stop talking nonsense. ”

Sbu:“ a car is waiting for you to take you

back to the hotel karabo ”

Karabo:“ what? step you guys coming too?

”

Bonga:“ no we are going to sleep here ”

Her:“ so you brought me all the way from

Durban to switch me here just because
miss piggy here is upset and those old men
did all those things? ”

Bonga:“ watch your words karabo cause

those are our parents and no one
disrespects them like that ”

Her:“ but I’m not insulting them cause they

are old and you are behaving like little boys
still wanting their daddies approval grow the
fuck up!. I don’t play with boys I roll with
men who know what they want and go after
it. ”

Zama:“ that’s enough karabo you clearly

have no idea what men want and need.
This person I’m looking at which is you is a
hell fucken no and I don’t blame them. To
me you’re just a sperm dish they use to
take out their frustrations and experiment
on. You should be worried sis when men
start looking at you as a thing than a person
”
Her:“ they want me cause I give them what
they want and they can’t get enough of me
like sbu here ” I look at him and he looks
embarrassed.

Zama:“ you might give them what they want

at that time but what about what they need?
what you need karabo. How do you feel
when they leave you after they have had
their feel of you and go back to the people
they need something from. Doesn’t that
bother you cause it does bother me ” my
woman

Karabo:“ men are never satisfied Zama no

matter what you do they will always look
somewhere else for something to fulfil what
they crave the most look at your man here ”

Zama:“ I’m not stupid karabo and yes scelo

has mad a fool of me many times but that
doesn’t I should allow it and let him do
whatever he pleases because he’s a man.
You can’t keep feeding your cravings
because one day they’ll be the death of
you. How do you feel karabo when you’re
alone and looking at yourself in the mirror?
Are you happy with the person that is
staring at you at the mirror? ”

Karabo:“ you don’t know me so don’t you

dare talk to me like you know me! ”

Zama:“ you ate right karabo I don’t know

you personally but I do know a troubled
person when I see one and believe me I’m
not judging you for your life’s choices cause
at the end of the day we do what makes us
happy and I think you should ask yourself
this karabo. Are you happy with what you
are doing with your life how you let other
people use you for their own selfish needs.
”
Preston:“ couldn’t have said it better myself
”

Sbu:“ take your bag and go karabo don’t

worry about the hotel bill everything is taken
care of. Someone will come and take you.
Back to Durban ”

Zama:“ you see? they used you and now

they don’t need you. Selfish men. ”

Karabo:“ fuck you! fuck all of you mother

fuckers! ” she says taking her bag and
leaving. Bonga follow s and then comes
back after a few minutes.

Bonga:“ she’s gone ”

Sbu:“ fuck me! what is wrong with that girl?

I can’t believe she did that. Zama I’m so
sorry ”
Bonga:“ I’m very sorry Zama I and no idea
she’s that kind of person and is ayanda’s
friend ”

Zama:“ yeah well it happened ”

Bonga:“ why do we attract crazy girls? ”

Preston:“ cause you’re all fucken crazy! I

can’t believe people I look up to are this… .
Ugh! ”

Me:“ baby I’m sorry I’m really… . ”

Zama:“ let’s go pres ”

Me:“ where the fuck are you going? ”

Her:“ did you get my bags? ” fuck no! she

can’t leave me because of this stupid thing

Preston:“ let’s go get them ”

Me:“ stop right there brother there are no
bags leaving this house! you are not fucken
going anywhere! ”

Zama:“ forget the bags pres I don’t need

them let’s go unless you want to stay with
your brothers ”

Pres:“ I’m leaving with you sis ”

Me:“ did I not make myself clear zah? ”

Her:“ your days of telling me what to do are

over!. They were over the minute you let
that girl touch you! ”

Me:“ I fucken stopped her from touching

Her:“ is that why your dick got hard cause

you didn’t want her to touch you? ”
Me:“ Zahl baby please! I know what
happens hurt you and I don’t know how to
explain it but I know I betrayed your trust
nay and I’m sorry ”

Zahl:“ if you can get this easily aroused by

of your family and embarrassed me. Am I

fall fuck!

Me: baby you are more than enough for

Her:“ I will I can and I will. I will not let you

Me:“ Nooooooooooo! you are not fucking

Me:“ I fucken love you and I’m sorry I made

Zah:“ I have let many things go and forgave

Zah:“I’m leaving. Pres let’s go ”

Mbuso:“ mapholoba?....what? they are

opens the door for them they get in and
Preston doesn’t look okay and zama looks
like she has been crying the whole way.

Me:“ zama are you okay? ” she comes to

me and bursts I not tears crying and I hold
her as she cries. “ I’m sorry he pointed a
gun at you he shouldn’t have done that ”

Her:“ I was so scared…. . I thought he was

Zama:“ I just wanted to get some air I was

Me:“ I’m sorry baby ”

Him:“ are you scared to talk to me Luh

about things that bother you in our
bedroom? ”

Me:“ no baby it’s just that when pres said

something about that girl. Having a

think that maybe you wanted to have one

asked me how would I feel if there was
someone watching us it made me feel like
you miss that ”

Him:“ yet you couldn’t wait to ask me when

we are alone then you want to kick me out

Me:“ it won’t happen again ”

Him:“ cause if it does I’ll fuck you senseless

and not let you cum and I’ll punish you in
ways that you won’t like. ”

Me:“ it won’t happen again I’m sorry ”

Him:“ I’m trying Luh I’m trying the best I

my past that you didn’t know but you do
and I can’t change that. I can’t change my
past but I’m no longer that man I was then.
I’m your man and I want to be the best one

like I’m not doing enough. ” oh my God no!
Me:“ mbuso I love you just the way you are
you and your past cause that makes you
the man you are now and I wouldn’t change
anything about you. I’m sorry that I make
you feel like you should be this perfect
person and do more. I know there’s no man
in this world who would do the things you
have done for me. It’s more than enough
what you do for me and do wish that one
day I’ll do for you half of the things you
have done for me. ”

Him:“ you do that every time you look at me

like I’m the world’s greatest and the love
you show me baby. My world starts and
ends with you Luh only you and our kids ”

Me:“ you are more than the world’s

greatest. Words are not enough for me to

both laugh loud.
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 36.

LUNGI.

I’m in the kitchen when preston walks in

looking like a hot mess. I wonder if they did
manage to sleep or they were busy talking.
I feel bad that I didn’t comfort her yesterday
and talking to mbuso that way in front of
them was very wrong and I feel so
embarrassed.
Me:“ good morning you look like you didn’t
sleep ”

Him:“ morning sunshine I didn’t sleep at all ”

Me:“ was she crying the whole night damn I

feel so bad ”

Him:“ oh sunshine it’s worse than that ”

Me:“ what do you mean? is she feeling

okay? ”

Him:“ she left she has left him ”

Me:“ oh my God when did she leave ”

Him:“ four hours ago ”

Me:“ oh pres why didn’t you wake us up ”

Him:“ she asked me not to and it was her

decision Luh I had to respect that ”
Me:“ I know scelo brought this on himself
and you know what I don’t feel sorry for him
cause zama deserve better than that ”

Him:“ she does ”

Me:“ did she say where she’s going and

how did she leave? ”

Him:“ she didn’t say but I drove her to a

garage and a friend of hers picked her up
and they left and I came back. She asked
me to apologize to you and the family for
just leaving like that after she was
welcomed with open arms ”

Me:“ I understand and maybe this distance

between them will give them clarity and if
it’s meant to be they will find their way back
to each other again ”

Him:“ I hope so too I’m going to miss her ”

Me:“ me too ”

Mbuso:“ you are going to miss who cause

I’m right here ” he says standing behind me
and kissing me “ hello beautiful hey bro”
man that’s my man.

Me:“ morning baby you smell so yummy ” I

say giggling we kiss

Pres:“ hello I’m still here ”

Mbuso:“ green is not your colour ” we laugh

Pres:“ don’t forget that some of us are

single and lonely ”

Mbuso:“ who are you going to miss? ”

Me:“ zama she left ”

Him:“ oh what’s for breakfast? ”

Preston:“ you’re not surprised? ”

Mbuso:“ I saw you guys leaving and so I

knew she’s leaving him again ”

Me:“ he’s not gonna be happy ”

Mbuso:“ he will deal with it ”

Preston:“ what does that mean? ”

Mbuso:“ exactly that ”

Me:“ are you going to help him find her

again? ”

Him:“ no love I tried to help last time but

look what happened. If he really wants her
then he will go and look for her ”

Me:“ uhm guys I wanted to say something ”

they both look at me. “ I wanted to
apologize to my future husband about how I
talked to you last night in front of Zama and
Preston. I disrespected you as the man if
this house and my man and I shouldn’t
have done that. I’m sorry Mnguni ”

Mbuso:“ thank you love ” he kisses me.

Preston:“ ok I’m going to make breakfast ”

Me:“ I need both of you not to leave they

are going to deliver furniture any minute
from now ”

Preston:“ finally ”

Me:“ shut up press ” we laugh he starts

making breakfast

Mbuso:“ when are we having someone to

help us around the house love? ”

Preston:“ and you need nannies ”

Me:“ I don’t know baby I’ll ask mah to find
us someone ”

Him:“ please do ” the gate bell rings and so

as my phone mbuso picks it up “ hello?....
Yes this is her husband what company are

” then he hangs up

Me:“ they are just a furniture company boo ”

Him:“ we can’t take chances baby I have to

check the security footage how many are
they. I don’t want strange men in my house
around my pregnant wife ” he leaves I
guess to do a background check on them
and we look at each other with press and
he sighs and I shake my head. He comes
back after ten minutes and opens the gate
for them. I go the living so I can direct them
on where to put the furniture.
Mbuso comes back and is followed by two
women they are walking behind him and
clearly checking him out I smile and
shaking my head. I don’t blame them cause
of I was them and saw this fine man I would
be all over him like white on rice he comes
to me then kisses me.

Me:“ hello ladies I’m lungi and this is my

husband ” I greet them smiling

Lady1:“hello mrs… . ”

Me:“ just call me lungi ”

Mbuso:“ I’ll be in my office love ”

Me:“ but I asked you to help out ”

Him:“ don’t worry they have enough hands

and pres is here too but tell me if you need
my help ”
Me:“ I’m sorry to bring this now but I wanted
to ask you something concerning pres ”

Him:“ what’s wrong? ”

Me:“ I wanted to ask of its okay with you

that we have a bedroom for him not just a
guest bedroom but his room ” he smiles

Him:“ will that make you happy? ”

Me:“ kakhulu ” (very)

Him:“ it’s fine with me love. ” I smile

Me:“ thank you baby I’ll bring your breakfast

two women and gosh they are eye fucking

Lady1:“ thembi ”
Lady:“ zonke ”

Me:“ ok you have your laptop with you

Thembi:“ yes I do ”

Me:“ ok let’s go to the kitchen so I can see I

was you how I want the whole decorated. ”
they follow me to the kitchen and find press
cooking a storm. “ so much food pres? ”

Him:“ they are coming here ”

Me:“ they who? ”

Him:“ the whole family ”

Me:“ oh pres where am I going to sit

everyone? ”
Thembi:“ we can start putting the furniture
in the dining and living room ” she says
taking out her laptop

Me:“ I hope you didn’t say anything about

zama”

Him:“ hell no I ain’t saying nothing ”

Me:“ ok uhm zonke can you tell them to

start cleaning the living since we’ll start
there ”

Her:“ ok mam ”

Me:“ let’s work thembi ” I show her how I

want everything to be placed and decorated
in the house using her and which furniture
to go to which room. I hear the cleaning
machine making noise and I’m glad that
when they come to deliver the furniture you
have the option of asking for house to be
cleaned. Thirty minutes down were almost
halfway when I decide to quickly make
mbuso a sandwich cause pres ditched
breakfast and is now making brunch. I
quickly make it for him then take it to his
office and his head is buried in papers and
laptop and his phone keeps ringing. He
looks so sexy wearing glasses and I just
want to jump his bones but I give him his
food and leave him alone so he’ll get back
to work and me too but first I go to my
bedroom and lock it cause I don’t want
anyone snooping in there.

I go back to the kitchen and continue where

I left off with thembi and zonke shows them
where to put it. My house is finally
becoming a home and I love it.

Me:“ I believe we are done I have showed

you how I want everything placed in the
house so do your best thembi ”
Her:“ ok sis lungi ” she leaves and joins
zonke.

Me:“ pres did you mean my dad mbuso’s

Him:“ yes sunshine ”

Me:“ oh God I’ll be back I’m going to

change before they get here ” I go to my
bedroom I’ll be back I’m going to change
before they get here ” I go to my bedroom
decide to take a quick shower then leave
and go to my closet look for a light
presentable dress and find it then mbuso
walks in and he smiles

Him:“ hmm perfect timing ”

Me:“ for what boo ”

Him:“ a quickie love ”

Me:“ the house is full of strangers boo ”

Him:“ it’s our house and I don’t care ” I

giggle

Me:“ no ways ”

Him:“ are you going to leave me looking like

Me:“ you hanging pretty well baby ”

Him:“ you want me to walk around the

house hanging like this and show your
property? ” we laugh

Me:“ you better not ”

Him:“ then let’s have a quickie love I

take off my underwear he smiles comes

Me:“ I’m ready ” I say shaking my ass a little

and we both laugh and he spanks

Him:“ you know how to drive me crazy and I

pulling down his sweatpants puts his finger
in me and finds me already wet plays with
my clit then thrusts in and we both moan. “

minutes later we leave the bedroom and I
feel great. Which knew sex could make
someone feel like they are on top of the
world we pass the ladies again and thembi
flushes red when she looks at us.
Me:“ did you see her getting flustered? ”

Him:“ no ”

Me:“ boo you didn’t even look at her ”

Him:“ exactly ”I laugh

Pres:“ I was about to go and look for you

but the I remembered if one of you is
missing then something is going down or up
and… ”

Mbuso:“ pres you have a big mouth ”

Pres:“:“ I was just saying I’m hungry let’s

eat cause the others are not yet here ”

Me:“ I’m hungry too please dish up ” we

hear loud male voices and oh god here it
goes. “ boo can you tell them to come
through the garage please ”
Him:“ ok love ”

Preston:“ are you ready for when scelo

loses his mind? ”

Me:“ oh pres ” they get in laughing and

talking then it gets quiet.

Boo:“ baby I want you to meet my other

Sicelo:“ ay she’s my beautiful sister lungile

Sibusiso:“ hello future Mrs Gumede it’s nice

to finally meet you after I have heard so

but not as handsome as my man.

Me:“ nice to meet you too sibusiso ”

Sibusiso:“ my brother really got blessed

Me:“ thank you ” he gives me a light hug

then looks at mbuso and kisses my cheek

Sicelo:“ you mean to tell me that zama left

Me:“ allowed her to leave? do you hear

Preston:“ she’s a grown ass woman scelo

Sibusiso:“ she has left you before? ”

Preston:“ oh she has and she’s done it

Sicelo:“ brother you know how much she

means to me and you let her leave without
telling me mbuso damn you! ”

Aunty:“ I was keeping it between us cause I

certain things with me ”
Aunty:“ I didn’t know you feel this way luh
I’m sorry I made you feel that way baby. I
think I was scared at how you’ll look at me?
”

Luh:“ loving someone is a great gift and we

Sims:“ we just fucked and that’s all what it

was get over it ”
Luh:“ maybe you guys would like to talk in
private? ”

Bonga:“ we didn’t just fuck and you know it.

You ran away like a scared little girl when

Sims:“ you are right about me not being

able to handle a man like you a liar and a
cheater. I don’t want that kind of man ”

Bonga:“ how did I cheat on you when we

are not in a relationship? ” Sims flinches too
then turns around

Luh:“ come with me ” she takes her hand

and they leave then Preston and aunt follow
them too giving my brother nasty looks.

Me:“ pres you can’t leave your pots? ”

Aunty:“ baba Frank will cook ” she says and

Bonga:“ you heard her we just fucked

Sbusiso:“ but there is more ”

Bonga:“ I don’t know… maybe ”

Me:“ why didn’t you say anything? ”

feel a certain way ”

Me:“ when did it start? ”

Him:“ we fucked after thami's funeral she

was stressed and worried about luh and
they lost a brother so we comforted each
other ” sbusiso and I laugh

Sbusiso:“ you mean you were the one

distance until now ”

SICELO.

We arrive in the farm and dad takes me to

my grandparents bedroom where they used
to share. We left the uncles outside and it’s
just the two of us now he looks really
worried and I’m scared cause I have no
idea what is going on with me. I just broke
down and cried cause Zama left me and I
don’t know where she went and how I’m
going to find her cause mbuso refuses. I
can’t believe I talked to him that way how
could I disrespect him like that at his own
house. I have to apologize to him and my
sister and his dad too.
Me:“ baba kwenzakalani ngami? ” ( dad
what is wrong with me?)

Dad:“ don’t worry my son you’ll be fine

there’s someone who’s going to come and
explain to you what is wrong ”

Me:“ is it our traditional healer? ”

Him:“ it’s our neighbour from that other farm

you remember that he is a seer? ”

Me:“ yes ”

Him:“ he will explain everything ” he says

that then someones knocks on the door and
dad opens the door and it is him baba
uNgwende he gets in and they close the
door behind.

Me:“ sawubona baba ” ( good morning

dad )

Ngwende:“ sicelo take off your shoes and

shirt sit down crossing your legs ” I do as he
says without asking any questions and dad
does the same. He sits down facing me
with a bowl between us then lights white
candles and a sage and . He lights the sage
then takes my left hand and touches and
starts praying then says our clan names
and I start to feel a little better. When he’s
done he looks at me.

Ngwende:“ when did it start? ”

Dad:“ It started yesterday but I could be
wrong ”

Me:“ dad what are you talking about? ”

Ngwende:“ I see sicelo has your birth mark

been itching to a point where it hurts? ”

Me:“ I don’t understand baba? ”

Ngwende:“ sicelo your birthmark the one

you all have has it been causing you to feel
pain? ”

Me:“ it would do that I would scratch myself

until it hurts. Do you know why baba? ”
Ngwende:“ your dad when through the
same thing when he was much younger
than you sicelo ”

Me:“ I’m still confused baba what happened

to you? ”

Dad:“ you see my son every man in this

family for generations has gone through this
and your cousins will also go through it
because all of you have not found your
soulmates ”

Me:“ what? ”

Ngwende:“ your father when he was about

to meet your mother he experienced
something like he was having a nervous
breakdown but that was not it the same
thing that happened to him is happening to
you and it will happen to your sons too ”

Me:“ I haven’t met my soul mate? but I

thought zama was is my soul mate. ”

Ngwende:“ I see two women one is a very

troubled soul and the other one you have
hurt. Both of them were not your soul mate
your soul mate is waiting for you. She’s
praying for you that you find her and she’s
waiting for you ” what?

Me:“ I’m still confused baba ” what the hell

is going on!.

Dad:“ sicelo the reason why your birthmark

has been itching and you acting out and
causing trouble is because the time has
come for you to be one with the person you
were meant to be with. ”

Ngwende:“ if you don’t find her your

birthmark will grow and cover your whole
body and the itching will get worse. That’s
why you always attract crazy women or
women you just use at this age you were
supposed to have met her and gotten
married and have a family. Your father met
your mother very early and he knew she
was the one you will know too when you
meet her but be warned sicelo. If you make
her your soul mate leave you you will go
crazy just like your dad almost did ”

Me:“ mom almost left you? ” I didn’t know

that!.
Dad:“ she did for a month I couldn’t find her
and you and I will not tell you why she left
sicelo ”

Me:“ did you cheat on my mother? ”

Dad:“ I never cheated in your mother I

loved her very much! ”

Ngwende:“ tell the boy why she left so he

will know that if he ever thinks of even
doing something he will go crazy ”

Dad:“ we were having an argument about

thuli and it turned into a fight and I hit her
sicelo I hit yoirother my boy and I’m not
proud of that. I was so frustrated cause she
couldn’t see that thuli was using her and I
lost it. She was so scared of me and didn’t
feel safe so one day when I celebrate back
from work she was gone. She took a sick
leave from work and left with you.

Me:“ where were we? ”

Dad:“ she left to see her aunt I had

forgotten about her until your aunt reminded
me that she still has an aunt living in free
state. I was close to losing my mind son
when I found her again and I was a mess. I
don’t wish for you to through what I went
through. ”

Me:“ but why didn’t you tell me dad? ”

Him:“ because I had thought that you’ll

meet her and when you didn’t I thought
maybe it’s not time. I think a part of me was
maybe waiting for this to happen so I can
confirm that it’s not Zama cause O thought
she could be your soul mate ”

Me:“ this is crazy dad how long do I have to

find her? ” where am I going to start and
how will I know?

Ngwende:“ she’s praying for you everyday

son. You will know it and feel it. ”

Me:“ will I get worse and continue to have

these outbursts cause I don’t want to hurt
my family and friends baba? ”

Ngwende:“ I will give you something to

drink everyday bath with so the itching will
stop and not hurt. I think your birthmark has
grown if you have noticed but when you
and her are finally one it will go back to its
original size. ”

Dad:“ whatever you do when you meet her

son be truthful and honest with her and
don’t make her leave you cause only you
will make her leave you by your actions and
how you treat her. Learn from my mistakes
son. ”

Ngwende:“ you will inherit good things

when you meet her. She’s going to be a
blessing that you need. ” he gives me my
hand back

Me:“ I hope so. ”

Him:“ drink this water now and then you’ll

use half of it to bath here in your
grandparents bedroom. Did your dad tell
you why he brought you here and
specifically in your grandparents bedroom?
”

Me:“ he didn’t baba ”

Dad:“ your umbilical cord was buried on this

yard this is where your roots are
Sponsored
this is where your roots are this is where
you and your wife will come when you face
serious problems and need help from the
family. Not your friends sicelo but here with
Ngwende your aunts and uncles and me
your father. Do you understand? ”

Me:“ I do dad. ”
Ngwende:“ go and wash yourself ”

Me:“ can I ask something baba? ”

Ngwende:“ yebo ” ( go ahead)

Me:“ so if I don’t meet her and maybe meet

the wrong one I will spend the rest of my life
crazy? ”

Ngwende:“ you will die and leave her and

she will never experience love. ”

Me:“ I thought maybe I was suffering from a

broken heart but baba is shocking I’m still
shocked. ”
Dad:“ I was too when your grandfather and
ngwende explained to me what is
happening. Now you will explain it to your
sons.

Me:“ dad is that why you said here at home

we only bring brides and not girlfriends you
were talking about this thing? ”

Dad:“ exactly my son. Only brides of this

family are welcomed you will see it too. ”

Me:“ thank you dad and thank you baba

ngwende. I feel better than when I first got
here ”

Ngwende:“ don’t thank us sicelo it’s all up to

you now. ”
Me:“ let me leave you. ” I get up and go to
my bedroom taking the water with me fill
the bath with water and add this one
ngwende have me and then get in and
bath. I look at my birthmark and he is right
cause it has grown just thinking about
meeting someone new and I don’t even
know when and where and how we are
going to meet stresses me. I get done then
clean it and go to my bedroom and wear my
other clothes and go to the living room and
find the uncles there with dad ngwende has
left I think.

Me:“ uhm baba Mnguni I’m sorry for

disrespecting you and your son’s house. It
was never my intention and I don’t have an
excuse as to why I did it. I hope all of you
will forgive me daa uncle victor I’m sorry.
Please accept my apology. ”
Mnguni:“ you are forgiven son your dad
explained what is happening. ”

Victor:“ sicelo grow up man you are not

getting young my boy. You don’t want to be
a fourth five year old man hammrunning
after his one year old son you’ll be too old ”
they laugh at me

Me:“ what happened today opened my eyes

uncle and made me see life in a different
way ”

Dad:“ this is what I was hoping you are

going to say. I’m proud of you son. ”
Me:“ thank you dad I’m going to see mbuso
and luh and apologize ”

Dad:“ buy her flowers and lots of chocolate

chip cookies she’ll forgive you ” I smile

Me:“ I will dad. ”

Dad:“ tell the boys to be here at night

tonight is the night we bring siphoned and
his family under one roof and hear what
they have to say ”

Me:“ should I tell mbuso too? ”

Mnguni:“ tell him mangcobo will be fine. ”

Victor:“ I came with simphiwe so she will be
fine. ”

Me:“ ok I’ll let him know. ” they nod

Me:“ dad tell aunt I took her car one of the

guys will bring it back. ” He nods then I
leave.

I go to town and go by flowers for the

women including Preston by luh lilies then
go buy the guys whiskey. As I pass I see a
beauty spa so I get in and ask about their
services then pay and give them luh’s
address and leave. I get in the car and take
my phone and call Zama I really hope she
answers. I call again five more times and
then she finally picks up.
Her:“ sicelo ”

Me:“ hey are you okay?. Are you safe

there? ”

Her:“ yeah I’m okay. You don’t sound like

you’re mad ”

Me:“ I was but I’m better now. ”

Her:“ there’s something different about you

you sound different. ”

Me:“ Zama I wanted to apologize to you. I

have used you from the moment I met you
and I was wrong I was very wrong and I’m
sorry. ”
Her:“ wow sicelo I never thought you would
say that ”

Me:“ I finally realized that I treated you like I

owned you like you were my property and
not a human being and sorry for that too.
I’m sorry I pointed a gun at you too but I
was never going to shoot you zah
inpromise you. ”

Her:“ I forgive you sicelo. You did many

good things to me too than the bad things
and for that I’ll never forget you you gave
me something that no one will ever take
away from me and that is education. Thank
you Mapholoba. ”
Me:“ a part of me will always love you and
care about you Zama. Whenever you need
anything don’t ever hesitate to call me ”

Her:“ I will always love you too sicelo but

we need to cut all ties between us so we
can move on and not be reminded of the
past. ”

Me:“ you are right maShenge but my offer

still stands. Anytime Zama ” she chuckles

Her:“ ok I will. Take care of yourself and

treat the next woman you meet better than
all the women you have met sicelo. ”

Me:“ I hope the man you will meet will know

what a blessing you are and not take you
for granted. ”
Her:“ I’ll let him know ” we laugh

Me:“ I’m going to send you money. I want

you to by yourself a house Zama and a car
and not depend on anyone. This is my gift
to you for all the times you’ve been with me
and stuck by me. ”

Her:“ thank you Mapholoba. I will do that ”

Me:“ take care girl ”

Her:“ you too homeboy” we both laugh and

I hang up. I feel so much lighter. I drive to
luh’s place.

SICELO.

I thought that she might be mad at me

curse at me or even scream and tell me
how much she hates me but she didn’t
cause she’s not that kind of person and she
has never been. I really thought she might
be the one but she’s not and after talking to
her my heart new and I made peace with it.
I drive to luh and mbuso's place and I hope
I have ruined my relationship with them.
The gates opens and I drive in and park
aunts car then take all the flowers and
whiskey then get in the house. Preston is
the first one to see me and he smiles
looking at the flowers

Preston:“ are those for all of us cause I love

” he says taking them putting them on the
table. I look at luh and she looks at me
worried. I go to her and give her her flowers
then she gets up and hugs me tight and I
whisper I’m sorry and she nods. I give aunt
her flowers and kiss her cheek then Preston
and Sims cause I knew she was coming.

Mbuso:“ you feeling better brother? ” he

asks concerned.
Me:“ I’m okay I guess ”

Him:“ what’s going on there’s something

different about you ”

Me:“ I’ll tell you all about it later.”

Him:“ ok man as long you are feeling better

then I’m okay. ”

Me:“ uhm guys can I have your attention? ”

I see Sims with bonga and I’m surprised. I
know they hooked up in Standerton but I
didn’t think they talked after that. They all
look at me. “ I would like to apologize to you
Mbuso for disrespecting you in your house I
should have never talked to you that way as
a man and as your brother. I never meant
to not respect you as the man of your
home. I’m sorry luh for talking to you that
way and taking my frustrations and anger
out on you. I promise to never do that and
I’m sorry to everyone for showing
disrespect and to show you how much I’m
sorry I bought all of you those flowers and
you guys some whiskey. ”

Mbuso:“ we forgive you brother ” we share

a man hug and they guys too

Luh:“ I forgive you big brother I’m glad you

are feeling better now ”

Mbuso:“ something is different about you

you sound different ”
Aunty:“ It shouldn’t have taken you this long
sicelo but I’m glad you are good too” I nod
at her.

Bonga:“ you look like you've grown since

we last saw you in the morning.” They
laugh these morons

Me:“ I feel different. ” I truly do.

Sibusiso:“ it’s like a different man is

standing before us ” I chuckle

Me:“ nah it’s the same old me. So bonga

and Sims? how the hell did that happen
cause I thought it was a hit and run ” we
laugh
Bonga:“ she had me at we are doing this
for the last time and I was like hell to the
no!. ”

Me:“ you do know that if you do anything to

hurt her she’s going to kill you and bury you
” fits of laughter fills the whole kitchen.

Bonga:“ man I love her crazy ass ”

Sims:“ I love you too baby” she says

smiling.

Me:“ our family is growing it was luh and

mbuso mah and Frank then now we have
bonga and sims. ” I say taking a seat.
Mah:“ it’s only you two boys left and time is
running out ” she says that looking at me
and we both know what she means. I nod.

Me:“ uh the dads wants to see all of us

guys excluding the women ”

Luh:“ what’s going on? ”

Mbuso:“ preparations for the negotiations

love ”

Her:“ ok. ”

Bonga:“ they want to see us now? ”

Me:“ they said later but we can go now too ”

Mbuso:“ I’ll go change lets go love ”

Her:“ I’m good baby ” we all laugh.

Mbuso:“ baby I need you to pick out

something for me to wear ”

Her:“ since when do I pick out clothes for

you? ”

Mbuso:“ but baby?... ”

Her:“ oh we almost forgot the designer is

coming to take your measurements so you
guys can’t go just yet. Is that okay? ”
Me:“ yeah that’s ok we can leave after we
are done. ”

Bonga:“ plus I’m waiting for Mike and Paul

and they should be here in two hours. ”

Mbuso:“ well then I’ll go change alone ” he

says the last part looking at luh and she
laughs he leaves.

Luh:“ did you find out where Zama is? ”

Me:“ yeah I called her and we talked. “ I say

sighing.
Sims:“ I was looking forward to meeting her
”

Me;“ well that’s not going to happen. ”

Preston:“ she didn’t tell you where she is

did she? ”

Me:“ she didn’t and I didn’t ask her ”

Sibusiso:“ why didn’t you? ”

Me:“ cause we both knew that it is over

between us. ”

Luh:“ oh my God brother I’m so sorry ”

Me:“ I’m sorry too but it’s for the best cause
things wouldn’t have worked out between
us. ”

Preston:“ but you don’t know that for sure. ”

Mah:“ he does know cause he got a wake

up today ” they look ataj then me

Luh:“ what is that supposed to mean? ”

Me:“ we went to see a traditional healer or

seer if you can call it that and he told me
something’s that made sense and opened
my eyes.
Luh:“ well then I’m glad he put things into
perspective for you. ”

Me:“ me too sis. We both talked and I

apologized for the things I did to her that
hurt her and she forgave me. I told her
anytime she needs me or something she
must let me know. ”

Luh:“ thank you for that brother ”

Preston:“ you are going to be short of one

brides maid ”

Me:“ I’ll ask two of my cousins then it will be

five each. ”
Mbuso:“ that reminds me of what I wanted
to ask you brother. ” he says looking at
bonga

Bonga:“ what is it? ”

Mbuso:“ will you my best man? ”

Bonga:“ for real? ”

Him:“ yeah man for real ”

Bonga:“ then I accept whole heartedly ” he

hugs him excited

Me:“ fool stop grinning like that you’ll scare

Sims away ” he chuckles
Mbuso:“ the three of you and zipho will be
my grooms man ”

Me:“ your brother is very scarce ”

Him:“ he’s 23 enjoying life not hanging

around old people ” we laugh

Luh:“ then I’ll add another cousin then that’s

it. I have to call them and get them here. ”
she takes out her phone and calls them.

Me:“ plus I came with aunts car they might

be in town. Call them and let me know
where they are so I can go and fetch them
while we are still waiting for the designer. ”
Luh:“ no call them then ask one for the
securities guys to go fetch them and baby
please call zipho and ask him to go to
someone who will take his measurements
then send them to us. ”

Mbuso:“ I’ll do that ”

Preston:“ I’ll call the designer and find out

where he is. ”

Me:“ I can’t wait for the negotiations to start

and get you guys married. ”

Luh:“ then after we are getting you married

Sims ” Sims blushes.
Me:“ brother we are the only one’s single in
this house ”

Sibusiso:“ not for long cause maybe I might

just fall for one of your cousins ”

Us:“ no!. ” me luh and mah say at the

second time.

Sibusiso:“ why not guys ” he asks confused

then laughs.

Me:“ they are all married so it’s a no. ” I tell

him and he looks disappointed.

Him:“ oh man.” We laugh

Preston:“ he’s outside the gate
Sponsored
luh and mah say at the second time.

Sibusiso:“ why not guys ” he asks confused

then laughs.

Me:“ they are all married so it’s a no. ” I tell

him and he looks disappointed.

Him:“ oh man.” We laugh

Preston:“ he’s outside the gate can you

Me:“ luh where are they? ”

Her:“ sis thandie and khethiwe are in town
at the mall then sis ntombenhle is at her
house but she’s coming. ”

Me:“ ok let me quickly go fetch uthandi no

khethiwe while the designer takes your
measurements and I’ll be back before he
even finishes. ”

Luh:“ please do ” I give her an assurance

smile. Mbuso comes in followed by one
men and two ladies and he looks like he’s
pissed.

Sims:“ James you finally made it ” so the

guy is James
James:“ told you. Hi guys I’m James Zwane
and these two are my assistants. “ he
doesn’t say their names.

Me:“ brother walk me out. ” mbuso nods we

leave the house and stand outside my
aunts car. “ ok out withnit what’s wrong? ”

Him:“ did you see that guy? he’s the one

who’s going to be touching luh? ”

Me:“ is that what has gotten you pissed? ”

Him:“ well I thought it was a woman. ” I

chuckle.
Me:“ it doesn’t matter cause that guy over
there is going to make your bride to be look
very beautiful. ”

Him:“ I don’t think I want him to touch her ”

Me:“ jealous are we? look man luh has

eyes for you and you only. That guy is here
to do his job and if he starts getting out of
line they you’ll deal with him. ”

Me:“ man he is cause it’s part of his job.

Stop being so jealous she loves you ” I
laugh at this fool.

Him:“ I know that. ”

Me:“ I have to go fetch my cousins from
town I be back and well talk and put a smile
on that face. “ I get in the car and drive out
to town. I go to the mall and it’s full. I park
my car then send khethiwe a text message
where they will find me. I sit in the car for
fifteen Minutes then they show up and get
in the car and I drive them to luh’s place.

We get there and they are all in the living

room aamd sis khethiwe is also there and
the way mbuso is watching james is so
funny. He is Measuring luh one lady is
measuring mah and the other is writing
down the measurements. One by one they
do that until we all done and exhausted.
Preston shows them out after we are done
and they leave at around 19:30 pm.
Me:“ guys lets go it’s late. “ they nod. Bonga
kisses Sims frank kisses mah them mbuso
and luh kiss briefly then we all leave.

Mbuso:“ finally we are getting everyone in

one room. ”

Me:“ man it’s been long the day is finally

here and I want all the answers.

Mbuso:“ me too. ”we continue to drive until

we get in the farm. The lights in the barn
are shining bright. We get out and make our
way there and go to the basement and find
the dads sitting down and laughing like
what we are about to do is nothing to them.

Mapholoba:“ at last you are all here. ”

Us:“ yebo baba” ( yes dad)

Mapholoba:“ well then guys bring that

fucken shit sipho first and bring me that box
I gave you earlier and those other things. ”
he says to one of his guys and they go and
come back with a steel box and it sounds
like there are rats in there. What the hell?.
The other guys come with sipho and they
sit him down in the chair that is in the
middle has chains on it and they lock then
around his legs waist wrists then out a huge
steel choker around his neck that has a
large chocker.

Mapholoba:“ take off his blind fold. ” the guy

takes it off and it takes a while for sipho to
get used to the bright light in the basement
cause where he was it was dark. He finally
sees clearly then looks shocked at his
brother.

Sipho:“ Victor? you are part of this too? ”

Victor:“ I was a part of it in the begging and

now I am a part of it in the end. It’s your end
tonight. ” sipho laughs and laughs hard like
he’s crazy. Me and the guys look at each
other confused cause this is not the
depressed man we left here at the farm.

Sipho:“ well then of it is the end of me and

I’m going to die and meet my son then I
better tell you this Victor. Buhle is your
daughter and her mother pimped her to me
that’s how much she fucken loves me and I
enjoyed popping that cherry and fucking her
every chance I got. ” he says laughing and I
look at Victor and he looks so shocked and
mad. fuck me!.

Victor:“ you bustard! you fucken sick

bustard! how could you do that?!. ” he says
screaming and goes punches sipho hard on
his face twice and blood gushes out of his
nose.

Sipho:“ because even after all these years

she couldn’t still forget the day you fucked
her and got her pregnant. She hated that
baby she was carrying and I did you favour
and convinced her to keep the baby cause I
had plans for her and calm I did ” uncle
Victor takes out a knife and is about to Stan
sipho but mbuso and Frank stop him.

Dad:“ you can’t kill him Victor not now at

lease cause we all need answer’s.”
Victor:“ buhle is my daughter and she’s so
messed up because of my brother her own
blood and uncle raped her repeatedly and I
didn’t know!. ” he says crying this shit is
fucken hard.

Mapholoba:“ go and bring thuli. ” dad says

and he’s pissed. Everyone is tense and we
want blood. Sipho thuli and buhle’s blood. I
don’t care that buhle is Victor’s daughter
that bitch is dying even if I have to do it
myself cause while she’s still alive my sister
will never be safe and I can’t have that and
I know mbuso will agree. They killed my
mother so I’m going to kill their daughter.
It’s all fair.

MBUSO.

I always suspected that sipho did

something to buhle and hearing him now
confess that he raped her and took her
virginity makes me sick to my stomach.
How can thuli allow this to happen to her
own daughter and who did she meet as
Victor is buhle's father?. Could the boy her
friends raised and be sipho’s son?.

The guys bring in the annoying and

screaming thuli who looks very scared right
now and when she sees how badly bruised
up her husband is she losses it and curses
us. I fucken hate this bitch and her
daughter. All three of them deserve to die I
don’t give a fuck that she is Victor’s son.

Me:“ Mapholoba is the video on? ”

Him:“ it is on don’t worry ” luh will see this

video after she has driven birth to our kids
not before.

Me:“ doesn’t buhle need to he here too to

hear what a screen up of a mother she
has? ”

Dad:“ you are right she needs to hear this

with her own ears. Bring her boys. ”
Mapholoba:“ Victor I’m so sorry for what
has happened to your daughter. No child
deserves to go through all of that. ”

Victor:“ I understand sakes it’s fine. ” so he

does know that buhle is going to die too
that we can’t let her live? hmmmm. They
bring buhle in and she looks like she has
lost 10 years of her life. She hasn’t been
getting any drugs and now she looks like a
street kid.

Buhle;“ mom and dad? you are both here

and even you uncle Victor?. Sipho what
happened to you? are you okay? ”

Thuli:“ oh my God sipho what did they do to

you my love? can you hear me? ” sipho
laughs looking at his wife.
Sipho:“ tell them tell them how you bathed
and prepared your daughter for me to pop
her cherry you whore!. You killed my son!
my only child. ”he says screaming at her.

Buhle:“ mom so it was you who killed my

brother? ”

Thuli:“ he wasn’t your brother he was some

whores son. ”

Victor:“ why didn’t you tell me that you were

carrying child thumb? ”

Thuli:“ because I wanted to abort that little

bitch but then sipho convinced me to keep
the baby and raise it and I did just that..
Why are not you happy? ”

Buhle:“ uncle Victor is my dad and you

wanted to abort me mom how could you! ”

Thuli:“ I should have killed you the day I

found out cause ever since you were born
you have been nothing but a damned curse
in my life! ”

Buhle:“ you were just jealous because he

loves me more than he loves you!. You
couldn’t stand the attention he gave me that
is why you were always bitter and sad!. ”
what?
Thuli:“ love? you telling me that he loves
you?. Sipho doesn’t love baby he destroys
everything he touches. ”

Buhle:“ but you let him touch me. You

offered me to him and specifically told me
to do anything he say so he can be Happy.
You pimped me out to him your own
daughter!. ”

Thuli:“ my own mother did it to me so why

shouldn’t I do it to you as well? ”

Victor:“ to my brother thuli?! her own damn

uncle! ” he says furiously.

Buhle:“ it doesn’t matter because we love

each other. Sipho loves me and I love him
tell them that baby! ” what the fuck is buhle
saying?.

Sipho:“ I don’t love any of you the only

person I have ever loved is Lungi. I was
going to take her away from all of you and
start my new life with her but damn you
buhle for making a deal with this devil. ” my
blood boils I’m fucken livid. Thuli laughs like
she’s possessed and buhle looks at sipho
hurt.

Mapholoba:“ what did you just sipho? ” he

looks enraged like he can span his head off
his shoulders. My dad opens that box
wearing a glove then pulls out a huge rat
like Alexandra rats. Mapholoba then takes
a steal bucket then they both go to sipho
and dad puts the rat into the basket
attaching it by putting the basket against his
stomach and him so he won’t move around
and he sobers up same time.

Dad:“ bring the gas lighter torch boys. ” they

bring it and and they light it then dad starts
heating the steal bucket and the rat
screams inside cause it is getting hot and
that makes sipho scream too

Sipho:“ hheeeyyy hhheyy stop! stop! the rat

wants to eat my stomach please stop I’ll tell
you everything you want to know. He says
screaming and crying.

Mapholoba:“ you sick bustard! you thought

you can run away with my daughter and
you fucken love her!. After you killed her
mother! ” he punches him on the face
repeatedly until my dad pulls him off of
him.
Sicelo:“ talk sipho you don’t have a lot of
time. ”

Buhle:“ please don’t kill him I love him! ”

Victor:“ stop this nonsense right now buhle!

” he reprimands her and she cries.

Thuli:“ I knew you loved that little witch I

knew it!. ”

Me:“ where were you going to take lungi? ”

Sipho:“ I was going to ask her to company

me somewhere then drug her then leave
the country with her. ”
Buhle:“ is that why you never wanted to sell
her because you loved her and not me?!.
After everything I have done for you and
sacrificed you were going to choose her
and not me?. How could you!. ” we are all
listening to what they are saying and we are
mad. I want sipho’s blood on my hands.

Thuli:“ oh shut up you little tramp this is all

your fault. Why don’t you tell them that it
was you who came up with the plan to sell
lungi?. Zakes buhle you all know is a
prostitute right? so one day she comes
home and says to me she met a man who
told her that he wants her buhle this one to
be his slave. She told him she can’t cause
she already has a owner which is sipho so
she tells the man that she can sell him
someone else at a reasonable price and
they agree to a price of 3 million but the
man gives her a check of 1.5 million rands
and the rest she was supposed to get it
when she delivered your daughter to him”
what the fuck!

Me:“ you bitch! you lied to me and told me

that it was sipho who wanted to sell lungi
when it was actually your idea! ”

Sipho:“ I was listening to them and I didn’t

want them to sell her because she was
mine!. Thuli begged and begged me until I
agreed but then buhle had to steal from you
mbuso then we didn’t get to meet the man
because buhle was the only one who knew
him. ”

Frank:“ boss Paul and Mike are here ”

Dad:“ bring them in so they can watch what
we do to people who betray us ” Frank
leaves and cones with them and they see
the mazibuko's and they look shit scared.

Thuli:“ there are other people who are after

us cause they were blackmailing us
demanding money cause they think that we
are the ones who killed that man. ”

Me:“ I’m the one who killed that man. ”

Sipho:“ I knew it was you! ”

Me:“ shut the fuck up sipho! And you bitch!

you wanted to sell lungi then you drug me
and rape me get Mike to help you then you
get pregnant and abort the child I never
knew existed or how it came to exist
because of what buhle! ” I roar in anger

Dad:“ she did what?. ”

Mike:“ she’s lying mbuso I never did that! ”

Me:“ exactly what I’m saying dad. Victor I’m

sorry but there is no way buhle is not dying.
I’m going to kill this bitch! ”

Thuli:“kill her kill that bitch. She has been

nothing but jealous of everyone. She
changed when she found out that lungi
wasn’t her sister and started being jealous
of her. ”
Buhle:“ I was jealous because I saw how
sipho looked at her and when I asked him
why he looked at her that way and not me
he then told me that lungi isn’t my sister but
she’s adopted. I didn’t know that they both
all three of them killed her mother. ”

Thuli:“ all of you ruined my life all of you.

You Victor I was fucking your brother
behind your back for a while before you
found out about it the I left you for him and
like the dumb fuck you are you simply gave
in. Zakes you are the only man I have ever
loved and I’m the one who saw you first and
not samkelisiwe. She took you away from
me and lived my life and I let that happen I
couldn’t watch her live my life before my
eyes and be happy for her so she had to
pay. ”
Mapholoba:“ I loved her and not you!. The
moment my eyes laid on her I knew she
was the one for me not you! you killed her
cause you were jealous that I love her and
not you! ”

Thuli:“ yes I was jealous and I was going to

make sure that I cause as much problems
between you two as possible then that’s
when I told sipho about you and how your
family is rich then we came with a plan to
take the money and kill all of you ”

Sicelo:“ and you succeeded cause you

killed my mother and tore our family apart.
You bitch! ”

Buhle:“ she’s a dog a fucken dog and I

blame you thuli for all my problems!. ” I look
at luh's dad and the way she’s watching
thuli makes my skin crawl and it’s
something that never happens to me.

Thuli:“ well you are just like me buhle sick

and twisted baby. We are cut from the
same cloth and you can’t run away from
that. Everything you know I’m the one who
taught you. ”

Sipho:“ I should have never allowed you to

convince me to steal from them cause at
the end of the day you betrayed me too and
killed my son. My only son”

Thuli:“ he was weak just like you but I

tolerated you sipho and did many things to
keep you happy but you were never
satisfied because all you wanted was that
bitch lungi just like how you wanted her
mother! ”
Sipho:“ she was special to me and I was
going to take her and thami and leave you
two alone. ”

Thuli:“ don’t make me laugh sipho she was

special to you? you think she was just going
to allow you to make her your thing? ”

Buhle:“ I gave you everything sipho my

body
Sponsored
my mind and my heart and my soul but it
was never enough even when I got
pregnant for you sipho! ”

Victor:“ what?! ”
Thuli:“ what the hell are you talking about
buhle! you don’t have a child with my
husband!. ”

Buhle:“ but I do mommy dearest I gave birth

to a boy and I left him with my friend and
she died ”

Me:“ remember when she was 18 and ran

away for a year? she was already pregnant
and she gave birth to a baby boy then left
the baby with her friend who later started
blackmailing her about the child then buhle
goes to her demands to see her son but her
friend refuses cause she has hidden her
child and then they fight and buhle kills her
and pays someone to get rid of the body.”

Buhle:“ how did you find out cause I made

sure no one knows! ”
Me:“ I always get what I want buhle I
thought by now you already know that. ”

Sipho:“ where is my son buhle? ”

Buhle:“ I don’t know mbuso please tell me

where he is ”

Me:“ he’s somewhere where he won’t be

touched by your evilness. He is raised by a
family who adopted him. ”

Buhle:“ I need to see him please just once.

”
Victor:“ never! you will not see him both of
you will never see my grandson!. ” thuli
laughs like she’s crazy

Thuli:“ oh this is so good look at you sipho

looking all touched and what not. Zakes you
could have been my husband the father of
my kids and you what I did a good thing buy
making sure that your other two kids don’t
see the light of day! ” oh my fucked God!.
Mike and Paul look like they would rather
be anywhere else than here.

Mapholoba:“ uthini?! ” ( what did you just

say? ) he asks her furious and sicelo
curses.

Thuli:“ it was luck I think cause everytime I

went to see sam she would suspect that
she’s pregnant so I would poison her drink
or food then the next day she would have
her periods. I did that twice after sicelo and
she never suspected it that dumb bitch!”
mapholoba takes the gas torch lighter and
goes to thuli and burns her face and she
screams in agony and we stand there
shocked at what she just said.

Sicelo:“ you killed my sisters or brothers!.

Why! why would you do that! ” he says
screaming his dad stops burning thuli on
her face and the whole basement smells
like burned flesh. ”

Thuli:“ burn sipho too cause he touched luh

from the ages of 56 and 7 he would drug
her then finger her. That’s why she doesn’t
know or remember because most of the
she was out of it ” oh God no! my worst
fears have been confirmed. Sipho used to
molest luh when she was little.
We look at each other with sicelo and it’s
like he can read my mind. I see a hammer
and nails and I take it then go to sipho
point the nails to his thigh then hit it hard
and I hear his bone cracking and I do the
same to his other thigh and he screams but
I want to do so much more to him. Sicelo
comes with a container of acid and pours it
all over sipho and he screams they all
scream.

Me:“ let’s switch the cameras off. ”

mapholoba nods and his guy switched it off
and I make sure that it is indeed off.

Dad:“ is there anything else all of you would

like to say before you die. ” sipho groaning
in pain and can’t talk and thuli is crying too.
Thuli:“ zakes I just wanted you I wanted to
be your wife. ”

Buhle:“ please forgive me! I need to live for

my son I’m sorry!. ”

Me:“ thuli who was helping you with the

plans to skip the country? ”

Thuli:“ it was those two Mike and Paul ”

Paul:“ mbuso brother she’s lying. I didn’t

help them I have no idea what they are
talking about. ” he says scared and literally
shaking.
Mike:“ I don’t know these two people I have
never met them in my life. I swear mbuso!
bonga my friend you believe me right? ”

Bonga:“ fuck off you think you can mess

with my family the get away with it? you
obviously forgot who mbuso is. ”

Mapholoba:“ any last words sipho? ”

Sipho:“ just kill me and put me out of my

misery I’m done and I don’t care anymore. ”

Mapholoba:“ and you thuli? ”

Thuli:“ I love you zakes always know that. ”

Sicelo:“ do you regret the things you did to
our family? ”

Her:“ no I don’t. ”

Dad:“ Victor you don’t have to stay and

watch this ”

Victor:“ she has had enough of this world let

me take her out of it please. She deserves
to rest now. ” I’m sorry for Victor but not for
buhle.

Mapholoba:“ she’s your daughter Victor so

do it. ” Victor pulls his gun out and points it
at buhle and she cries.
Victor:“ I wish I knew you were mine cause I
would have tried to protect you from the
things these two did to you. You deserve to
rest now cause you’ve had a long hard life
my child.” He says then pulls the trigger and
shoots her point blank on her head and
twice on her heart and I see tears falling
down his face. That has got to be the
hardest things I have ever seen. He drops
the gun then sits down and cries. Fuck!.

Mapholoba:“ boys give me the petrol ” they

do and it’s 3 twenty five litres of petrol. I go
and help him pour it all over sipho sicelo
and dad pour it over thuli. Mapholoba then
opens this door that’s on the corner of the
basement on the floor and they help him
pull the door up and open it. “ let’s get them
in there ” we drag them and throw them
down the deep whole then we pour the
remaining petrol over them. “ sicelo would
you like to do the honours? ” we all gather
around the whole including Victor and we
watch them

Sicelo:“ whole heartedly ” he takes the

match lights it then looks at them and they
look scared. “ you are the ones today that
will die burning and you’ll burn in hell too. I’ll
sleep better knowing my mother’s killers are
no longer roaming the roads of this earth
and a world is a better place without you
two in it.” He says then throws the match
and they scream wrenching cries as they
burn. May they rot in hell. We close the
door and their cries are no longer loud but
you can still hear them.

Dad:“ kill these two and throw their bodies

where people will find them. ” he says then
bonga and Frank shoot Mike and Paul so
fast they didn’t see it coming then the guys
who work for mapholoba wrap them in
plastic.

Me:“ drop them somewhere close to Joburg

and not here. ”

Them:“ ok boss. ” then they drag their

bodies out.

Me:“ I’m sorry you had to do that. ” I say to

Victor we lay buhle body down and wrap
her with a blanket.

Him:“ I’m sorry too for all the things she did
to you. To all of you I’m sorry.

Dad:“ what are you going to do with her

body. ”
Him:“ I have to bury her I’ll drive down with
her body now and tomorrow morning we
will bury her. ”

Dad:“ we will go with you now guys take her

body and put it in that body bag with lots of
ice. ” they nod and leave taking buhle’s
body.

Him:“ thank you. ”

Mapholoba:“ you know what time to check

on them then pour the acid to make sure
that nothing is left behind. Tomorrow
Ngwende will come to cleanse the
basement and all of us. Victor can you
collect all their souls. ” he tells one of the
guys and Victor then I go to the computer
and remove the hard drives of all the
footage.

Sicelo:“ yeah man take it we can’t afford to

have lose ends. ”

Me:“ I will install a new security system just

to be on the safe side. ”

Bonga:“ man seeing Victor cry got me. ”

Frank:“ there was no hope for buhle she

was a damaged soul. ” dad mapholoba and
Victor come back and we all stand there.

Mapholoba:“ what happens tonight stays

with us only. No one will know about what
happened here but only the people who
were here. Mbuso I know you don’t want to
lie to luh but this my son is not something
you are going to tell her. We will come up
with a plan as to what happened to buhle
but when she has given birth. She can
never know that sipho molested her when
she was young. ”

Dad:“ it’s a blessing in disguise that all

these years she has not had vivid
memories of that time but should it ever
happen or even suspect we will have to do
something ”

Me:“ it’s for her own good dad I know. ”

Mapholoba:“ we are done no more lose

ends or people we have to kill right? ”
Me:“ my friends I think one of them
betrayed me not I’m not sure which one. ”

Sicelo:“ we think that one of them told

ngqakula that it was mbuso who killed his
brother and it was only us and them who
knew. ”

Dad:“ we will sort that out for now we have

to go and be back before midday tomorrow
or they will start calling and getting
suspicious. ”

Me:“ ok dad. ”

Victor:“ after everything has settled will you

please show me where my grandson is? ”
Me:“ don’t worry I will do that he’s being
taken care of I made sure of that. ”

Him:“ thank you mbuso. ”

Me:“ don’t thank me uncle Victor. All of you

here gave me lungile and that’s what I’ll
forever be grateful for. ”

Mapholoba:“ let’s go to Standerton guys. ”

we all hug Victor.

Me:“ I hope this is the last time we are

going to Standerton to bury someone. ”

Victor:“ I think I’ll take luh on her offer and

move from there cause that place now has
only bad memories for me. My sisters are
there so they will take care of my mother.”

Me:“ you need a fresh start. ”

Mapholoba:“ at lease we have something

good to look forward to the negotiations ”

Sicelo:“ you are going to pay lobola for luh

again my sister is lucky man ”

Me:“ I’ll keep doing it over and over again.

No amount of money could measure up to
her. She’s worth every dollar rands and
penny I have.” They laugh. The mood lifts a
little bit. We get in the cars then leave.
Continual of Chapter 39
CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 39.

LUNGI.
We are having dinner in the kitchen they
are drinking wine and I’m drinking my glass
of apple juice. I’m so happy that Sims is
here the designer has taken all of our
measurements excluding my dad uncle
Victor and mbuso's dad but mah promised
to take their measurements and send them
to the designer. I’m so excited that finally
everything seems to be going well the
negotiations are going to begin and I’ll be
mbuso's wife legally and traditionally.

Me:“ mah I wanted to ask you if you can

help us by getting someone we can trust to
help around the house since it is now
furnished and mbuso has been complaining
about us getting help. ”
Sims:“ why can’t you guys get a cleaning
company to come and clean the house.”

Mah:“ she’s pregnant Sims and needs

someone to be here all the time. I think
nonto should come and help you guys since
we trust her and she has been working for
us for years.”

Preston:“ that’s a great idea and I still have

to find you nannies that you guys will
interview and agree on cause I know
mbuso won’t let anyone he doesn’t trust
around you and his kids. ”

Mah:“ they all won’t. ”

Me:“ thank you mah.”

Mah:“ do you want her to live with you
guys? ”

Me:“ yes she has to and so will the nannies

too. ”

Preston:“ good thing is there is a cottage

outside that they can all live in and not in
the house. ”

Me:“ what’s wrong with them living in the

house ”

Sims:“ they might hit on your husband you

have seen how mbuso looks right ”
Me:“ I trust him and I know he will never
cheat on me Sims ”

Sims:“ I know but men cheat when you are

pregnant but I’m not saying that mbuso is
cheating on you. ” I cannot believe she has
just said that.

Mah:“ Sims what’s wrong with you? How

can you even say that? ”

Preston:“ mbuso loves luh too much the

man is basically obsessed with her and
then you think he might even look at
another like how he looks at luh simphiwe?
” he asks her getting annoyed.
Me:“ are you trying to tell me something
sims or you want me to start being paranoid
and suspicious of him?. ”

Her:“ no luh I was only saying that most

men cheat when a woman is pregnant
that’s all. I mean it happened to me. ”

Me:“ I know it happened to you cause I was

there your experiences were only yours and
it doesn’t mean that what happened to you
will also happen to me too simphiwe. I know
mbuso is not perfect like the rest of us and
yes he has made mistakes in the past but
he is not the man who was when I first met
him. He has changed and I thought that you
saw it too cause you have seen what has
happened between us… . ”

Her:“ I know but… ”

Me:“ no let me finish. My mbuso loves me
and I know he will never hurt me like that
because I trust him completely and I know
that he would rather die that hurt me again
in anyway. Whatever that is going with you
in your head you better stop it because I will
not have you speaking bad things about the
man I love. ”

Her:“ I’m sorry luh everything I said was

coming out from a good place not because I
want to cause problems between the two of
you. ”

Mah:“ if I didn’t know better I would say you

are jealous Sims.”
Sims:“ what no? How can you say that?.
Luh is my sister and I love her I just don’t
want to see her hurt again that’s all. ”

Preston:“ look at her she’s glowing she’s

happy and she’s in love is about to get
married to the man she loves and they are
expecting kids. What would hurt her or
rather who would hurt her? ”

Her:“ I am not jealous of her!. I would never

hurt the only person who loves me and my
kids. ”

Mah:“ good then because if you do mbuso

and sicelo will kill you just so you know.
Even bonga won’t protect you.”
Me:“ Sims what’s going on? talk to me?.
Did your talk with bonga not go okay?. ”

Her:“ it went okay and we talked. I don’t

know maybe I’m just scared that he will
cheat on me and hurt me. I’m sorry luh. I
know mbuso really loves you and would
never do anything to hurt you. ”

Mah:“ Sims listen you and luh could be

sister in-laws if bonga marries you and so
when he does something you can’t make
luh think that mbuso might be doing the
same thing too cause you are going to plant
a seed of doubt in her head and cause
problems between them. Luh loves you and
trusts you your opinion matters to her. Talk
to bonga and tell him your fears. ”

Her:“ I will aunty I’m sorry guys. ”

Preston:“ luh told me how she met mbuso
did you feel rejected by him when he chose
her and not you? ”

Sims:“ no I didn’t because I knew he was

going to choose her. He has been watching
her from the first day he saw her. ”

Preston:“ hmm I don’t know because I think

maybe a part of you wishes that what could
have happened if he chose you?. You could
have been living the life luh is living and so
maybe you are a little bit jealous don’t you
think? ”

Me:“ pres she’s not jealous of me come on.

” I say defending her and she looks hurt.
Her:“ I’m not jealous of her life Preston
okay!. ”

Preston:“ I mean he chose luh not you then

we find out that you and bonga are sleeping
together I mean….. If you can’t get the man
you want why not settle for his brother ”
what is he saying?!. That’s crazy.

Me:“ Preston please stop okay!. Just stop.

She apologized and I know that she doesn’t
want mbuso or even looks at him that way.
” I believe that.

Mah:“ Preston has a point though why

didn’t she tell you that she slept with
bonga?. You guys are best friends so why
did she keep that information away from
you?. ”

Sims:“ because a lot was happening to her

and she was out on bed rest. I will not allow
you guys to make me the bad guy and
accuse me of wanting mbuso. She takes
care of me and my kids both of them do. I
do not see him that way and choose his
brother because he didn’t want me. Bonga
is the only man I want whether he is
mbuso's brother or not. ” I look at her and
she sounds hurt.

Preston:“ if it looks smells like jealousy then

it is jealousy. ”

Me:“ pres stop it please. Mah please. ”

Mah:“ pres leave it alone. ” she says and I
sigh. I look at the time and it’s 11 pm.

Me:“ are you okay? ” I ask Sims?

Her:“ I’m fine ” but she doesn’t sound fine.

Me:“ you’ll use the bedroom next to

Preston’s and mah you’ll use the one
opposite Preston’s. I’m going to bed I don’t
think the guys are going to be back anytime
soon. ”

Mah:“are you okay luh? ”

Me:“ I’m fine mah good night guys ” I tell

them
Preston:“ you want me to come and cuddle
with you? ” I laugh

Me:“ mbuso won’t like finding you in his bed

and Sims is the one who could use some
cuddling. You two should talk. Night night. ”
I leave them and go to my bedroom. I close
the door go to my bathroom and shower.
Get in bed and sleep. I won’t entertain what
Sims said and what Preston and mah
think.

Morning comes I wake up alone in bed.

Mbuso didn’t come back home last night. I
key phone and call him but it puts me on
voicemail.
Me:“ hey baby are you okay? you didn’t tell
me that you won’t ne coming back home. I
hope you are safe call me. ” I hang up and
go shower. I get to the kitchen and my
house smells devine and I smile. “ hello sis
nonto you are already here? ” I ask her
sitting down.

Nonto:“ morning sis luh. When aunty

phoned me last night and asked me if I
wanted to come and work here I accepted ”

Me:“ thank you I just hope dad won’t be

mad that we took his favourite housekeeper
” she smiles

Her:“ he won’t mind plus the other two

ladies are there and they will manage. ”
Me:“ we will talk about your salary and
benefits when mbuso comes home but the
whole house is yours. ”

Her:“ you have a beautiful home sis luh I’ll

make sure intake care of it. ”

Me:“ thank you

Sponsored
I’ll make sure intake care of it. ”

Me:“ thank you there’s a cottage outside

that you will use if you want to live here or
we can arrange a transport to fetch you
from your place. ”

Her:“ I’ll be staying at my place sis luh ” she

says blushing ok she has a man.
Me:“ ok then are the others awake? ”

Her:“ only your aunt she’s the one who let

me in. I think she’s showering. ”

Me:“ it smells devine I here but I want pap

and ox liver sis nonto ” she laughs

Her:“ pregnancy cravings. I’ll ask the guys

outside to go buy an ox liver while I cook
you pap. ”

Me:“ when did they get here? ”

Her:“ I don’t know when I got here they

were outside. ” I nod.
Me:“ let me go get the money I’ll be back. ” I
go to my bedroom take the money come
back and give it to her. Sims comes in
looking like she didn’t sleep at all.

Her:“ morning luh ”

Me:“ morning you look like you had a rough

night. ”

Her:“ yeah I didn’t sleep well ”

Me:“ why? ” I ask her eating an apple.

Her:“ they didn’t come back last night. ”

Me:“ I know. ”

Her:“ dis mbuso tell you where they are or

what they are doing? ”

Me:“ no. ”

Her:“ hmm ”

Me:“ Sims don’t start!. ”

Mah:“ start what? ”

Me:“ nothing mah good morning ”

Mah:“ morning baby morning Sims ” she
kisses my cheek.

Preston:“ morning fam today is a beautiful

day ” he says smiling and I giggle.

Me:“ don’t you have a surgery to run? ”

Him:“ I will go and see if the person I left is

still managing. ”

Me:“ I need to work after I give birth. ”

Mah:“ or you can start your own real estate

company ”
Me:“ I was thinking the same thing too Sims
could help with the paper work and you too
mah. ”

Her:“ nope I’m good managing our farm

thank you very much. ”

Sims:“ I would love that. ” she smiles

playing her food.

Preston:“ and what about me? ”

Me:“ sorry we don’t own a hospital ” we

laugh

Mah:“ why aren’t you eating? ”

Nonto:“ she wants pap and an ox liver ”

Mah:“ did you tell the guys to go to our

supermarket butchery and get the liver
there? ”

Her:“ I did and it should be here I’m 10

minutes. ”

Me:“ mah did you hear from dad? ”

Her:“ I did and they all slept at his house

but I think they will be here late in the
afternoon.

Me:“ is everything okay? ”

Her:“ it is baby apparently they all got drunk
and decided to sleep so now they are
nursing their hangover ”

Me:“ men ” I say chuckling. My liver gets

delivered and it’s a whole cows liver my
God I’m so going to eat it until I get full.
Nonto cools it and it smells wonderful. “ can
you tell the guys to come and have
breakfast? ” she leaves and comes back
with them they are only two. They greet
nonto plates for them and they eat. She
cooks the liver for me and it smells
amazing. I dig in when my pap has cooled
down. The guys finished they food and
thanks me then leave.

There is awkward silence between mah

Preston and Sims and I hate it. I’m not
going to ask them or what is the
uncomfortable silence about because I
thought everything that happens last night
has been forgotten. My phone rings and it’s
my man.

Me:“ morning baby ”

Him:“ love are you okay? ”

Me:“ I am boo how’s the hangover? ” he

chuckles

Him:“ bad but I’ll be fine. Did you miss me?

” I smile

Me:“ I did baby ”

Him:“ I did too but I’ll be there soon to show
you how much I missed you ” I giggle

Me:“ I can’t wait. ”

Him:“ there are people who are outside

now. I’ll tell the guys to open for them ”

Me:“ what kind of people? ”

Him:“ something your brother decided to do

for you. I have to go baby I love you ”

Me:“ ok I love you more. ” he hangs up.

Me:“ nonto can you go open the living room
door and let those people in. ”

Sims:“ what’s going on? ”

Me:“ sicelo decided to do something for me

and I guess we’ll see what that is. ” I get up
and go to the living room look outside my
window and see a truck and I smile.

Mah:“ his way of saying sorry? ”

Me:“ it is. ” nonto let’s them in.

Lady:“ hi we are from paradise beauty spa

and a Mr Sicelo sent us here to come and
give you your own spa day in your home. ”
We all scream.
Me:“ you can set up here and call us when
you are ready for us. ”

Lady:“ here are your own gowns please go

and change into them. ” the four of us leave
to our bedrooms and change. My brother is
the best and I haven’t been in a beauty spa
for years. I take my phone and type “ thank
you big brother you are the best and I love
you. ” and send it.

CHAPTER 40.

I really enjoyed the massages laying on that

bed that can also accommodate pregnant
woman has been wonderful. I am a going
to this again for myself and mbuso too yes!.
I have an idea what going to do. He could
really use the rest because he has been
running after people for a long time now
and I just want my man to relax and not
worry about anything else. Even though the
massages were great the mood is not right
and I have to address this.
Nonto is preparing a late lunch mah is
somewhere on the house and Preston let to
check out his business Sims decided to
take go and take a nap after talking to the
boys. I’m in my living watching TV when the
door opens and it’s my baby. I get up and
run to him wrapping my legs around him he
catches me laughing.

Him:“ now this is a welcome home I was

looking forward too.” I plant kisses all over
his face and he chuckles.

Me:“ I missed you ” I say kissing him

Him:“ I missed you too baby but come and

feed me I’m hungry then later you’ll show
me how much you missed me ” he speaks
between kisses.
Sicelo:“ please stop I don’t want to be
blind.” I look on the side and smile. Mbuso
puts me down I give my brother a big hug.

Me:“ I loved the massage thank you very

much. ”

Him:“ it was my way of saying sorry sis.”

Me:“ you were forgiven but this was the

icing on the cake. ”

Sicelo:“ where’s everyone? ”

Me:“ Sims is taking nap mah I’m not sure
where she is then Preston went to see how
things are going in his surgery. ”

Mbuso:“ come and feed me ” he says taking

my hand

Me:“ nonto is cooking but I think she’s

almost done. ”

Him:“ she’s here? ”

Me:“ yes she’s our new housekeeper baby ”

Him:“ sis you talk about her salary and

other things? ”
Me:“ I thought we will do that together ”

Him:“ love you’re the woman of this house

and whatever you decide is fine by me. Just
give me her banking details and
documents. ” we get in the kitchen and sit
down.

Them:“ Hi sis nonto? ” they greet her

Her:“ good afternoon sirs ”

Mbuso:“ thank you for agreeing to work for

us ”

Her:“ my pleasure sir. ”

Sicelo:“ what are eating? ”

Her:“ food sicelo ” we laugh. “ you will be

having seven colours. Are the others
coming or must I dish for only you? ”

Sims:“ good afternoon I would like some

food. I’m famished. ” I smile.

Sicelo:“ are you sick or something? ”

Her:“ no why? ” she asks frowning

Sicelo:“ you were taking a nap. The Sims I

know would have drank the whiskey we left
behind ” he is right we all laugh.
Her:“ man I forgot about it. But can I pour
you guys one? ”

Mbuso:“ I’m good I just need food and

sleep. ”

Sicelo:“ I’ll have one too ” she gets up and

fixed the both of them a drink.

Me:“ where are the others? ”

Mbuso:“ the dad’s went to see someone

bonga sbu and frank are smoking outside. ”

Sims:“ I hate that he smokes but I love the

smell of nicotine on him. ” she says
blushing.
Me:“ have you ever smoked baby? ”

Him:“ never love ”

Me:“ and you don’t have tattoos either ”

Him:“ I donate blood so I stay clear of any

ink on my body. ”

Me:“ they would have looked amazing on

your skin ” he chuckles

Him:“ do you have a thing for guys with

tattoos love? ”
Me:“ I have a thing for you only ” I blush he
kisses my cheek.

Sicelo:“ guys we are still here ”

Sibusiso:“ I’m going to throw up ” we laugh

Bonga:“ hey guys hey baby? ” Sims smiles

she really looks happy. She should just talk
with bonga and tell him her fears about their
relationship.

Sims:“ hello ” they kiss lightly

Me:“ ohhhh” we all laugh. Frank and mah

join us then pres too joins us. “ Sims can
you help me put the dishes on the table? ”
Her:“ sure sis ” we look at each other and
giggle. We put the plates on the table help
nonto dish up the food and sit down.

Mah:“ sims can you say grace? ” I look at

her and I feel mbuso looking at me.

Sims:“ let’s close our eyes. Father I thank

you for all the blessing I have in my life and
the blessing you are still going to bless me
with and I thank you for blessing me with
this family that I have and I apologize for
offending anyone. Thank you for this food
sis nonto prepared for us Amen. ” she says
and she sounds hurt and I don’t like that.

Us:“ Amen. ” I look at her and she gives me

a side smile. I look down and eat my food.
The while table is quiet only the sounds of
plates and knives clicking.

Mbuso:“ ok what is going on? ”

Sicelo:“ cause when we left there was no

tension between all of you but now?. ”

Bonga:“ baby did you and luh fight? ”

Her:“ no we didn’t ”

Mbuso:“ love what’s wrong? ”

Me:“ nothing boo ”

Preston:“ sims might have said that you
might be cheating on luh. ”

Me:“ shut up Preston she didn’t say that!. ” I

shout at him

Bonga:“ you said that? ”

Sims:“ I didn’t say that mbuso is cheating

on her I just said most of the time men
cheat on their pregnant wives. ”

Mbuso:“ and I might be one of those man? ”

he says so calmly

Mah:“ that’s what she insinuated ”

Bonga:“ what made you come to that
conclusion baby? ”

Me:“ we were talking about me and you

hiring nannies and that they would have to
live with is in the house and Sims was
concerned that they might hit on mbuso and
I told them that I trust you and somehow
mah and Preston thought that she might be
jealous of me which she is not. She was
just concerned about me wanting other
people to live with us in the house. ”

Preston:“ it was the way she said it though

that suggested that she might be jealous of
luh and you. ”

Mbuso:“ you don’t know the kind if

relationship luh has with Sims. They grew
up together the three of them with thami
and I am pretty sure that if she was jealous
of luh she wouldn’t be sitting here with us. ”

Mah:“ then she shouldn’t have planted that

thought of doubt in her head. ”

Me:“ mah stop. She didn’t plant anything in

my head or insinuated that mbuso is
cheating. I trust him and that’s that. Sims is
my sister and best friend and she knows
she can tell me anything share her fears
with me because she trusts me and I won’t
judge her. What she said came from a good
place and she meant no harm to me or
mbuso. ” I see sims treating up and it
breaks my heart.

Sibusiso:“ Preston did Sims say it that

made you think she was jealous? was she
saying bad things about their relationship? ”
Preston:“ no but maybe she feels like… ”

Me:“ stop it Preston!. She explained again

and again to you and mah that what she
said came from a good place and
apologized to you too and to me but you
still want to make this thing a big issue
when it’s nothing. ”

Mah:“ then why did she not say anything to

you about her and bonga? ”

Me:“ enough with this bullshit talk!. She has

every right to share what she wants me to
know and what not like I do. Sims doesn’t
owe me any explanation and I will not let
you and Preston come between us and
cause problems. She is my sister whether
she does good or bad and I love her the
same what she said means nothing to me
cause I know she meant no harm and she
was just beings her loud mouth self. I know
her you don’t know her
Sponsored
you don’t know her I grew up with her and I
will not let you make her feel uncomfortable
and unwelcomed in my house. Preston
don’t ever speak for Sims like you know her
more than me and mah what sims said is
my business and mine alone unless I come
to you asking for help. This is the last time
we will have this conversation and you will
not make Sims feel like she’s not important
to me cause she is. I’ve known her more
than all of you combined in this table and I
would know if she was jealous of me. None
of you the things we went through and how
many times she has protected me. You hurt
her all of you in this table you will deal with
me. I’m Lungile Ngcobo and no one
messes with the people I love. ” mbuso
looks at me with pride in his eyes smiling
and I smile back. Sims takes my hand in
hers and we hold hers tight.

Sibusiso:“ who knew you beneath all that

sweet submissive woman was a bad ass
chick. Man I love you ” he says palming his
cheek and mbuso throws a knife at him and
we all laugh.

Me:“ you and Frank excluded from what I

said. ”

Frank:“ for a moment there I thought you

were going to kick all of us out of your
house. ”

Me:“ I almost did that ” I mean it.

Mbuso:“ do you feel threatened by their
relationship? ”

Him:“ uhm no I don’t. I was just looking out

for luh ”

Me:“ Preston I am a grown ass woman and

I don’t need to be looked after from my own
sister like I am a God damn child.”

Sibusiso:“ or maybe you are the one who is

jealous of luh and Sims.”

Him:“ no I’m not. ”

Sicelo:“ am I in trouble too? cause you are
scaring me. ” I giggle

Me:“ no you are not ”

Sicelo:“ thank God!. ” he says wiping his

forehead I shake my head laughing.

Me:“ both of you need to apologize to

Sims.”

Mah:“ I’m sorry simphiwe O room this thing

a wrong way and I apologize. ”

Preston:“ I’m sorry simphiwe I don’t want us

to fight and have problems. All of you here
are my only family and I don’t want to lose
you. I’m sorry luh.” I nod.
Mbuso:“ I understand where all of that is
coming from. Simphiwe it’s because you
know how I was with luh and me hurting her
did hurt you too and maybe I never
apologized to you for hurting your sister but
I am now and I am sorry. Whatever that is
my brother did to hurt you I apologize on his
behalf because he can be stupid
sometimes but rest assured that I will never
cheat on luh and yes you are right about us
having nannies live in the house. Baby
that’s not going to happen here on in
Durban or whichever city we are going to
have a house in. They will leave outside in
the cottage. ”

Me:“ ok baby. ”
Sims:“ thank you all of you and I apologize
to all of you too for speaking without
thinking first sometimes.” I smile

Me:“ my ride or die. ” she laughs now this is

the sim I love who’s always carefree speaks
her mind.

Sims:“ thank you for having my back. ”

Me:“ always and it’s time I looked out for

you as you have been with me ”

Bonga:“ I’m sorry for hurting you and I

apologize for all the man who have hurt you
and made you feel like you are enough
because you are to me and I love you just
the way you are. ”
Sims:“ I love you too Siyabonga. ”

Me:“ so I was thinking that tomorrow we

have a little braai with our close friends and
family and celebrate thami's life. To say
goodbye properly his way. ”

Sims:“ dance and get drunk! I am all for

that. ”

Mbuso:“ but love I wanted to relax and get

some sleep just the two of us. ”

Me:“ we can still do that after tomorrow

baby. I’m not going anywhere ”
Sicelo:“ we could really use a braai man
just tomorrow only them we will all be out of
your hair and let you guys grow your
children in peace. ”
Mah:“ luh and mbuso have sex for all of us.
”

Me:“ but mah you can’t say that in front of

baba Frank ” we laugh

Frank:“ she it right the two of you are worse

than all of us. ”

Mbuso:“ they are jealous baby. ”

Preston:“ is your bedroom sound proof

because I don’t want to be scarred for life. ”
Me:“ can you guys stop talking about our
sex life! ” geez.

Mbuso:“ yes please stop it. ”

Mah:“ we will see you tomorrow guys I have

to go and take are of my man. ”

Sicelo:“ too much information aunty yoh! ”

Sibusiso:“ we don’t need to know that. ”

Frank:“ lonely man I feel for you guys but

don’t worry soon you will be cuffed too.
Later ” they go.
Sicelo:“ let’s go and get drunk sbu Preston

Preston:“ I could do with many drinks. ”

Sibusiso:“ I’m coming too. ”

Sims:“ you bonga? ”

Bonga:“ hell no. I want to sleep. ”

Me:“ baby go and join them I’ll see you later

”

Mbuso:“ are you trying to get rid of me? ”

Me:“ no boo I thought that maybe you guys
would like to still chill. ”

Him:“ we did last night and now I want you

all to myself. ”

Me:“ ok baby. ” I smile.

Sicelo:“ I guess it’s only use single boys.

Let’s go. ”

Me:“ are you guys going to sleep here or at

dad’s place? ”

Sicelo:“ this house is finally furnished so

you bet we will be coming here and
sleeping. ”
Mbuso:“ don’t bring any woman in my
house guys ”

Me:“ or men Preston ” he laughs.

Preston:“ unless he takes me home ” he

winks we laugh. They leave.

Sims:“ excuse us too we will see you later. ”

she takes bonga's hand and the leave us.

Me:“ sis nonto when will you knock off? ”

Her:“ I don’t know sis luh. ”

Mbuso:“ she will knock off at 5 pm and but
you will work everyday and some days we
might need you to work a little late. ”

Her:“ yes sir I understand.”

Mbuso:“ I know you know what is

happening in this family and I know we can
trust you but I will still need you to sign the
non disclosure agreement. ”

Her:“ no problem sir. Sis luh do you need

me too cook supper? ”

Me:“ please do cause my brother is going to

come back hungry ”

Mbuso:“ her too. ”

Nonto:“ ok I will cook supper. ” she says
and leaves the kitchen.

Me:“ your kids are making me hungry”

Him:“ are you okay though with what they

were saying about Sims?. ”

Me:“ I didn’t like it and I’m actually annoyed

at them but I’ll ne fine. ”

Him:“ you know that I love you very much

you. ”
Me:“ I know and I trust you my love. I trust
Sims too. ”
Him:“ ok baby let’s go to bed. ”

MBUSO.
“ I’m sorry they got you upset. They made a
big deal out of nothing I think maybe they
are jealous of your relationship with Sims. ”

“ that’s crazy though. What could be the

reason for them to be jealous of her. I mean
we welcomed Preston in our family with
both arms and mah she’s my aunt. I love
her and nothing is going to change that. ”
she says sitting on the bed.

“ they met you again as an adult they still

don’t know many things about you but only
Sims does. Maybe she feels like she
missed out on most of your childhood and
she’s feeling threatened by your
relationship with Sims. ”

“ then she should tell me how she feels and

not accuse problems between me and
sims. I hate that. No one is going to come
between me and sims. ”

“ I know baby. I’m going to run us a bath. ”

“ are you okay cause you look a little down?

” she asks me concerned

“ I’m ok baby I think I drank way to much

than I should have done. ”

“ ohk. “ I know she doesn’t believe me

cause of the way she’s looking at me. Lungi
knows me and she knows that I’m not okay.
I keep thinking about what thuli said about
sipho molesting luh for 3 years and
drugging her so she won’t be aware. That
makes me so mad. It makes me want to kill
sipho again and again. I want to punch
something so bad until I feel numb and my
body hurts.

“ baby are you okay? ” she asks turning the

tap off. Fuck the water was almost full in the
bath.

“ I’m okay love was just thinking. ” I take the

bath salts bubble bath and oils pour them in
the water. It has the right temperature. “ is
the water okay? ” she tests the water and
nods.

“ come and join me ” I undress take her

hand we both getting in with me behind her.
I pull her to my chest put my hand on her
stomach and my kids move.
“ when are we having another ultrasound?
”

“ next week baby. ”

“ I can’t wait to meet them ”

“ I can’t wait to hold them breastfeed them

and smell them. ”

“ you are going to smell our babies? ” she

giggles and that makes me feel a little
better.

“ you are going to do it too. Babies smell

great and I used to smell katlego and
melusi. ”
“ I hope our kids will look like you. ” so they
can wrap me around their little fingers like
their mom.

“ but I want them to look like you ” she says

whining and I chuckle.

“ they are going to look like us baby. What

matters is we are going to have healthy
bouncing babies. ” that’s all I want.

“ I hope sims will be here when I give birth

your mother too. ”

“ don’t forget aunt lwethu cause I’m sure

she’s probably going to move in with us. ”
“ you think so? ”

“ I know so love. ”

“ I’m a first time mother and so I’m going to

need all the help I can get. I learned many
things from Sims as she was raising her
children but I know it’s not the same for
everyone. I just hope I’ll be a good mother
to my kids. ”

“ you are a great aunt I’ve seen you with

sims kids. You are going to be the best
mom and it is going to drive our kids crazy.
”
“ we are going to be great parents and if we
have problems along the way we have our
parents and we can always ask for advise. ”

“ that’s right baby. ”

“ you know that after I’ve given birth we are

not going to have sex for like six months ”
she says looking at me.

“ love don’t joke about this cause it is not

funny. ” she laughs

“ I’m serious baby. No sex for six months

and of your aunt is going to be here she’s
going to make sure that we don’t do it. ”
that’s crazy!
“ whole six months love that’s absurd!. Who
came with these stupid rules?. ”

“ I have to heal down here first before we

get intimate again. ”

“ that’s like half a year of me not touching

you. ” she laughs

“ we can do other things but no penetration

of any kind. ”

“ so you won’t even blow me love? ” she

laughs fits of giggles.

“ that one you will get. ”

“ wow I can’t believe I’m going to have to
wait six months for me to make love to you.
That’s not fair love. ”

“ it is what it is baby. ”

“ you haven’t started with the nursery for

the twins. ”

“ I was thinking of asking sims to decorate it

cause she loves decorating. Oh wait I think
I have an idea what the both of us are going
to do. ”

“ ok what are you planning?. ”

“ well I was thinking that after I have given

birth I should register my real estate
business. I want to go back to work but I
want to be my own boss. ”

“ you want to work right after you have

given birth to our kids? ” she’s crazy

“ I’ll work from home and we will have all

the help we can get. Our families and the
nannies baby ”

“ so you are going to leave our kids and go

to work? ”

“ no baby I can work from home until the

kids are grown maybe when they turn a
year old. ”

“ so how does sims fit in all of that. ”

“ she loves to decorate and I think she
missed her calling as an interior designer
so I was thinking that sims can decorate the
houses will be selling. Some of the people
want to move in and not worry about
decorating the house and that’s where sims
come in. We can be partners and run our
business. ”

“ I like that love. I have an idea too. ”

“ what is it? ”

“ I can buy you land get bonga’s company

to design the houses your brother's
company to build them and my company
will install state of the art security system in
the house. You sell them and sims
decorates them. What do you think? ”

“ O wow I love it. If you do that what will

you get in return from our company?. Are
you coming in as an investor or what cause
I want our company to be 100 percent
owned by just me and sims.”

“ look love starting that kind of company

from scratch needs lots of money and you
have it but you still need investors in you
company to help it grow and be the way
you want it to be. Sims doesn’t have that
kind of money and so she might feel a
certain way about owning a company with
you equally when she didn’t put any amount
on it. So you have to convince her that it’s
not about the money but about the two of
you building a legacy for your kids. That’s
where all of us come in and invest in your
company. I would do it alone but I know
they won’t have that. ”

“ you right baby

Sponsored
your brother's company to build them and
my company will install state of the art
security system in the house. You sell them
and sims decorates them. What do you
think? ”

“ O wow I love it. If you do that what will

you get in return from our company?. Are
you coming in as an investor or what cause
I want our company to be 100 percent
owned by just me and sims.”

“ look love starting that kind of company

you building a legacy for your kids. That’s
where all of us come in and invest in your
company. I would do it alone but I know
they won’t have that. ”

“ you right baby you know I didn’t look at it

that way and k owing her she wasn’t going
to agree. She was going to say it’s better if
she works for me and I don’t want that. I
want us to be partners equally. So will you
buy me land anywhere I want and in any
province?. ”
“ yes love anywhere you want. Consider it
as my gift to you for carrying my babies and
making me the happiest man on this earth.
” she kisses me

“ thank you baby. We buying an empire for

our kids. ”

“ yes we are. Whatever that makes you

happy makes me happy too. ”

“ we are going to buy already built houses

and buildings too. Renovate decorate and
then sell them. ”

“ my hot business woman. You are taking

my surname when we get married right? ”
“ hell yes. I want to be Mrs mbuso Gumede.
I can’t wait baby. ”

“ me too love. ”

“ let’s get out of the water. You will catch

pneumonia. ” I help her get out of the bath.
We dry ourselves moisturize and go to the
bedroom.

“ it’s summer and it’s hot outside baby I

won’t get sick. ”

“ I won’t take chances with your health. ” we

lay on top of the duvet facing each other.

“ mbuso? ” she says my name so sweet

and gently.
“ yes love. ”

“ are you really okay? ” she’s worried about

me. I sigh

“ why do you keep asking me that. ” I kiss

her lips.

“ you don’t sound like yourself. You sound

down. ”

“ I’m fine baby nothing is wrong. ”

“ I know you didn’t drink last night. ” what?

“ how do you mean I was drunk last night. ”

“ you were not drinking last night. You

weren’t feeling of alcohol.”

“ I drank a lot of water cause I didn’t want to

reek of alcohol. ”

“ why are you lying to me? ”

“ I’m not love. Get on top of me. ”

“ no you are avoiding my question. ” she

says sternly.

“ what question? ”
“ did you not make a promise to me that
you will never lie to me?. ”

“ I did and I am not lying to you. ” damn why

won’t she let it go.

“ you are lying to me. Where were you last

night. ”

“ I told you where I was and what we were

doing. What more do you want me to say
luh?. ”

“ then if you were drinking all night and

nursing your hangover this morning then
why did you smell like the time you came
back from killing that man?.” fuck no!. I
thought I didn’t smell.

“ you think I was out last night killing

someone? ”

“ I’m asking you where were you and why

you were smelling like that. ”

“ isn’t my word enough? don’t you trust me

now when I tell you where I was and what I
was doing?. You don’t believe me and you
question me lungi then you accuse me of
being out last night killing someone?. ”

“ I didn’t say you killed someone just that

the smell odour was the same as last time. I
trust you and you know that. I trust that you
will trust me enough to tell me the whole
truth no matter how difficult it is. ”

“ I know that. ”

“ I don’t think you trust me enough to tell me

the truth. Mbuso we are going to be married
soon we are going to be husband and wife.
You can’t hide things from me. I don’t care
what my dad or your dad said. We are
going to be one this marriage is ours not
theirs and you can’t keep things from me
because they said so. You are going to be
my husband and I shouldn’t be left behind
in the dark. I’m not some naïve little girl that
needs to be protected always cause maybe
all of you think I’m fragile cause I’m not!. ”
she says getting up from the bed and I sit
up. “ I was raised by thuli that cold woman
and you think she could raise a weakling of
a child? No!. She is cold and heartless but
what she taught me is to be strong and not
let anyone walk all over you. You can’t fight
for what you want and believe in it.
Weakness isn’t part of that woman’s
vocabulary. Yes she treated me and but
also there good things I learned from her
too. So all of you should stop making
decisions on my behalf and think that you
all know what is best for me. I am sick and
tired of all of you doing that and it has to
stop!. ” where has this woman been hiding
cause my baby is coming out of her shell.

“ no one is making decisions about your life

love. ”I really don’t want to have this
conversation but I see that it has been
weighing heavily in her mind. It has been
bothering her and lungi is not the type of
person who talks.
“ you are all of you. It’s like you are dictating
what I should know what not I should know
and I’m sick of it. This is my life and no one
has any right to decide what is best for me
but only me mbuso!. You are going to be
my husband and we should make decisions
together not let my father or your father tell
you what is best for me cause I know that
your dad doesn’t hide anything from your
mother and my dad wouldn’t hide anything
from my mother if she was still here. If you
are keeping things from me now while we
are not married then what is going to
happen when we are married? ”

“ I know baby and I get your point and no

one is dictating how your life should be. ”
she is right though I have let the parents
make most of the decisions and that has to
stop.
“ when you are hiding bad things from me
that are happening that is dictating mbuso.
Who said I only want to know good things
that are happening around us?. I’m not
fragile or weak or a naïve. I’m fucken
pregnant that’s all and I want you to be the
man that I know you are and lead your
house and makes decisions for your family.
Our parents should take a step back and let
us do what we think is best for us and if we
fail then that’s fine cause we learn and we
will ask for help when we want it. ”

“ I’m sorry love I didn’t realise that I was

doing that. Maybe I was busy trying to
make up for the bad things I did to you and
for them to accept me as your man.”

“ I’m happy that you wanted them to accept

you as my man but it wouldn’t change
things between us whether they accepted
you or not cause I do and that’s what
matters to me. They would have had no
choice but to accept you too cause I love
you and that is never going to change. I’m
here with you mbuso for the good the bad
and the ugly and scary things. ”

“ one thing I will always be grateful for is

that you gave me a chance again to be part
of your life and our kids lives. I love how
you love me and only me. Your love and
faith that you have on me makes me feel
like I can do anything in the world just to
see you happy and smiling. I walk tall and
proud cause you make me feel like I’m a
fucken king. ”

“ you are the king of this castle. Only you

and no one else. Don’t let anyone tell you
otherwise cause where you lead I will
follow. ”
“ your love humbles me lungi. It makes me
feel like I’m not doing enough to show you
how much you mean to me. ”

“ you have done more than anyone would

have down for me.. I’m the one who should
do more to show you how blessed I am to
have you. ”

“ marry me tomorrow then I don’t want to

wait anymore. ” she looks at me shocked.

LUNGI.

He looks at me expecting an answer. I’m

shocked we are going to get married. I just
don’t understand what is the hurry now.

“ baby we are going to get married. We are

planning a wedding ”

“ don’t tell me about that wedding. I want to

marry you tomorrow. I can’t wait. ” he looks
so handsome right now.

“ you really are serious aren’t you? ”

“ have you known me to joke about serious
things? ”

“ nope. ”

“ baby I can’t think straight with you

standing there naked. I need my answer
now ”

“ I gave you my answer when I accepted

your ring boo. ” he kneels down on one
knee. Looks at me smiling.

“ lungile Ngcobo my rib. My everything. I

can say all the right words there are but the
only words I want to say to you now is. Will
you marry me tomorrow morning?. I want
the sun to set tomorrow with you as my
wife. ”
“ I can’t take you serious looking like that.
You are aroused your kneeling down naked
and the only thing I’m focusing on is that
heavy sack between your legs and that
hard dick. ” I say chuckling.

“ so you want me to propose to you while

I’m inside of you making love to you?. I can
do that too you know ” he smiles God he’s
so handsome. I love this mam.

“ I’ll marry you even now if it was possible

but I will marry you mbuso Gumede
tomorrow.”

“ you know we can make that happen right?

”
“ what? Get married now? No!. ”

“ tomorrow it is then. Come here and let me

make you happy. We miss you. ” he says
moving his hips up and down. His dick
bounces too heavily.

“ what are you doing? ” I ask him laughing

my head off.

“ getting ready for you baby. I’m about to

love you tonight. ” he does push ups

“ well mister since we are getting married

tomorrow then I have to love you and leave
you. ”
“ what do you mean love? ” he gets up.

“ well then say it’s bad luck for the groom to

see his bride the night before the wedding.
So I’m going to put my clothes on and I’ll
see you tomorrow as my dad and uncle
victory walk me down the isle. ”

“ no love don’t joke like that ” I laugh out

loud.

“ I’m serious boo. ” I leave him and go to

the closet and wear my dress.

“ You really are serious. ”

“ we have a wedding to prepare for
tomorrow since we both can’t wait anymore.
You will love me tomorrow as your wife. I
will call you keep you phone close to you. ”

“ baby then let’s do a quickie please?. Look

at how hard I am. ” he grabs his dick and I
see precum leaking Jesus!.

“ go and take a cold shower boo you’ll be

fine. ”

“ you are not being fair right now. ”

“ We will have all the time in the world

tomorrow. Right now we don’t cause we
have a lot to prepare for. ”
“ look baby it’s not even 5pm so we can still
get someone on the last minute. I won’t
take even 30 minutes I swear. ” he looks at
me like he is sad but he’s really not. He’s
just horny.

“ my love I’m not going anywhere.

Tomorrow you can do wicked things to me
as long as they won’t hurt my babies. ”

“ ok fine. I hate this ” I giggle and kiss him.

“ call the others and tell them to come. I’ll

be in the living room ”

“ where are we getting married? ”

“ since it’s just going to be our families only
then I think we can do it at my father’s
house. It has a big backyard that can
accommodate all of us and mbuso please
call your brother and tell him to get his ass
right here. ”

“ I will but baby why can’t we just invite our

families only then a reverend. I will give you
your dream wedding after the kids are a
year old ”

“ my first wedding was a sham my second

wedding will not be the way I had
envisioned cause my dad wants me to get
married before the kids are born then you
want us to get married tomorrow. Am I ever
going to have the wedding of my dreams
mbuso?. ” he’s getting me upset.
“ baby I swear you will. Let’s get married
tomorrow then we focus on the traditional
wedding and then after you can go crazy
and plan your wedding. You have a year to
do all you have ever wanted. The way you
planned it even the dress baby and you
hopefully wont be pregnant by then. ” is this
man crazy?.

“ I will not be pregnant by then mbuso. Our

kids will still be young. I can’t focus on
many things then have to worry about being
pregnant. I’m going to take birth control. ”

“ hell no!. You won’t be taking any birth

control!. ” he puts his clothes on.

“ ok then we will use condoms. ”

“ don’t piss me off lungi don’t!. ”

“ then what do you suggest we do?. ”

“ we continue having sex and let nature

take it’s course.”

“ fine there’s no arguing with you. ” I am

going to take birth control after I give birth. I
have to make sure that he doesn’t find out
at least until the kids are 2 or 3 years old.

“ good. ”

“ then let’s talk about something else. ”

“ no!. ”
“ you haven’t even heard what I want us to
talk about. ”

“ I know you want us to talk about the

prenuptial agreement and the answer is still
no!. ”

“ why not mbuso. If anything happens to us

God forbid what will we do? ”

“ you and the kids will survive and live a

very comfortable life. I made sure of that. I
have accounts luh all over the world with
different names should anything happen to
me. We can wake up the day after
tomorrow go bankrupt and I would still
have money. You would still have money
and not worry about anything. I do
understand your fears baby cause we don’t
know what could happen tomorrow so
here’s what we are going to do. ”

“ I’m listening. ”

“ what I made before we get married is

mine that applies to you too. The money
you have is yours. But from tomorrow the
moment we sign our marriage certificate
what ever amount of money we both make
is ours. I’ll ask my lawyers to draw up the
papers now and you can ask your cousin
to look at them and see if everything is as
we have discussed and legit. Deal? ”

“ deal Mr Gumede. ” we shake hands.

“ I want you to understand that I will not
share something with you regarding my
work baby. It’s not because I don’t trust you
but it’s because I have to be discreet and
I’m also protecting you should anything
happen cause I don’t want you to be in any
trouble. Do you accept that?. ”

“ I do but you must know that I will never tell

or betray you mbuso no matter what they
can do to me. I will die protecting my family
and I will kill for my family too. ”

“ I know baby and it scares me to death. I

think I’m being a bad influence on you. ” I
chuckle.

“ it’s in my blood baby. You keep

awakening me from the slumber I was in. ”
“ I don’t want you to change. ”

“ and I don’t want you to change too just

because you want to impress my family. I’m
your ride or die. Your woman. I’ll stand by
you even if everyone turns their back on
you. ”

“ Queen of my castle. I fucken love you

baby. ”

“ I love you too. Let’s go and plan our

wedding. Call your lawyer zipho and mam
Dlamini. I want them all here. Oh and you
better call your mom and aunt. ”
“ so no quickie? . ” I laugh zipho and mam
Dlamini. I want them all here. Oh and you
better call your mom and aunt. ”

“ so no quickie? . ” I laugh leave him in our

bedroom. I knock on sims door.

“ who is it?. ”

“ It’s me. Come to the living room. We are

getting married tomorrow. ” I hear shuffling.
I leave and go to the kitchen find sis noto
about to leave.

“ you are leaving? ”

“ I am sis luh. Do you want something? ”

“ we are getting married tomorrow ”

“ really? O wow!. I’m so happy for you. I

thought you were getting married later ”

“ yeah well mbuso can’t wait. Can you

come a little bit early tomorrow to help out
with food and stuff. I’ll pay you double. ”

“ don’t worry about the food we have it

covered. I’ll ask some of the maids from the
farm and your dads house to come now so
we can prepare. ”

“ really sis nonto? thank you and tell them

they will be paid. ”
“ I will sis. ”

“ here’s your shopping card that you will

use to buy the food. The meat we will get in
from the farm but I don’t know cause dad is
going to get a fit. I have to call him. ”

“ good luck ” she says giggling. I sit down

and call my dad. Here it goes. His phone
rings. He picks up

“ Mangcobo ”

“ sawubona baba unjani? ” ( good afternoon

dad how are you?)
“ I’m good. What is the matter. ”

“ are you home? ”

“ I’m at the farm. Why? ”

“ I wanted to talk to you about something. ”

“ you can talk now. What is troubling you? ”

“ uhm I know that you asked us to get

married before I have the baby and we
agreed but now… ”

“ now what? you have changed your mind

lungile?. ”
“ I have baba but not like that. ”

“ explain then ” I hear him sighing.

“ I want to get married tomorrow. ” I hold my

breath cause I don’t know what he might
say and what if he says no?. I hope he
doesn’t say no.

“ you want to get married tomorrow? ”

“ yebo baba. ” yes dad. He laughs. You

know the kind of laugh that says ( these
kids are crazy) yep that one.

“ oh my child. Are you sure? ”

“ I am dad. I really want to marry him. I
know this is not how things are done and
I’m sorry. We are not trying to disrespect
you and I would understand if you say no. ”

“ you really want to marry him and spend

the rest of life with him? ”

“ I do dad. ”

“ you accept him for who he is and what he

is?. ”

“ I love all of him just the way he is and I

wouldn’t change anything about him. I
wouldn’t change how we met and how we
ended up here right now. Please dad allow
me to marry him please. ”

“ if I say no would you still go ahead and

marry him? ”

“ I’m sorry to say this but I would dad. I

would marry him even if you said no.” I
mean it. We would elope and get married.

“ I know you would. You have my blessings

to marry him. I’m happy for you my child. ”

“ thank you you daddy. ” I smile

“ ok baby. Will there be an isle? Am I still

walking you down the isle? ”
“ why don’t you dads come here at our
house. ”

“ we are coming. ”

“ tell uncle Victor the good news. I can’t wait

to see him. I missed him so much. ”

“ I will baby. I’ll see you later ”

“ thank you dad bye. ” I smile. I’m about to

hang up when I hear mbuso’s dad say “ I
told you he wasn’t going to wait that
long give me my money. ” I can’t believe
they put a bet on us.
“ you would really marry me against your
fathers wishes? ” he asks standing behind
me. I almost scream.

“ don’t sneak up on me like that mbuso you

know I hate how you move sometimes ” he
laughs

“ sorry for scarring you love. ” he kisses my

cheek.

“ yes I would marry you even if my father

said no. ”

“ I was going to kidnap you if he said no. ”

“ I was thinking that we would elope if he
said that. ” we look at each other then
bursts into laughter.

“ I called all of them and they are on their

way. Percy is coming with mam dlamini. ”

“ I can’t wait for dad to meet her ”

“ baby don’t play matchmaker please. ”

“ I’m not. I just said I’m excited that’s all. ”

“ hmm. ”

“ ok let’s plan this wedding. ” sims say

“ why can’t we get on the internet and find
someone. What good does it do to have
money and not spend it. People need jobs
and this someone somewhere is looking for
this opportunity. ”

“ ok laptops and phones out. The Wi-Fi is

free so start workings. The food is already
sorted. Where are the others? ”

“ you guys are such mood killers. ” says

mah looking like she was being ravished
hmm.

“ we are here guys ” says Preston. “ you

guys are seriously getting married
tomorrow? ”
“ yes Preston. Call your people and let’s
compare notes. And find a beautique store
for all of us. ”

“ I know someone who always has ready

made clothes. He can come here. ” sibusiso
says.

“ please tell him to bring everything and tell

him that the bride is pregnant. ”

“ yes ma’am ” he says.

“ where are we getting married? ”

“ my dad’s house. ”
“ Preston it is lungi's wedding and mine.
Ours alone. You are not getting married to
me. ” mbuso says everyone laughs.

CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 41.

LUNGI.

Lucky for us we have three different

wedding planners that are working rather
wonderful together. Each one of the has
their own specific job to do Preston and
sims are making sure of that. I cannot
believe everything is coming together so
wonderful at such a short period of time. My
dad said we cant slaughter a cow because
the Gumede family have not paid my bride
price. Mbuso’s mom couldn’t stop crying
when she got here because one of her kids
is finally getting married for real. Well aunt
lwethu when started burning the sage all
over the house chasing bad spirits away at
our house.

I am happy that they are all excited even

though they lectured us about rushing
things. According to them they thought
maybe when I’m 8 months pregnant that’s
when we will tie the knot but they know their
son is very impatient.

We are now at my parent’s house and what

dad did when he came to my house was
take me to the farm to our grandparents
room and burned the sage with bab’
Ngwende as they connected to my
ancestors. They also took me to all their
graves including my mom’s. I’m glad my
aunt was there with my brother and other
aunts as dad talked to her because I got
emotional and started crying but I felt this
wonderful sense of peace like she was
there covering me with a blanket in her
arms as my aunt hugged me.

We left to my fathers house. When I got

there it was crazy filled with all kinds of
people going up and down. Cars outside
the yard and trucks in like it’s crazy. I
haven’t seen mbuso since we left our house
but I know he is here around somewhere.
Dad instructed me to go my bedroom and
not come out until tomorrow of which
is crazy cause we are not having a
traditional wedding just a simple white
wedding. But what I saw outside is nothing
simple. The planners are doing their best
and I know for sure that tomorrow. I’m
going to be in awe. I’m laying in bed when
the door opens. It’s my husband to be. I
smile “ what are you doing here baby? ”
He doesn’t say anything. He locks the door
looks at me and smiles. “ I came to spend
some time alone with you before we get
married. How did it go? ”

I wonder if scelo told him I was crying. “ I

got a little emotional thinking about
everything and how far we have come in
less than a year baby. It’s crazy. ”

The way he looks at me as he sits and

turns the TV volume down makes me feel
like he is looking deep in my soul. It’s
different and makes my skin breakout in
goose bumps. “ you have been through a
lot love. We have been through a lot my
love but all of that led us to be here today.
There are things I wish I could have done
different love but I can’t cause they
happened and I can’t change them ”
Mbuso still carries a lot of guilt for the things
he did and I realise now that he hasn’t truly
forgiven himself. “ mbuso you need to
forgive yourself I have told you this before.
What happened is all in the past. You need
to let it go close that door and throw away
the key. I don’t want you regretting anything
because that would mean you regret
meeting me. ”

He looks at me like I’m crazy shaking his

head. “ no man would regret meeting you
baby. I for one have no regrets love. ” he
says claiming my mouth like he hasn’t
kissed me in a long time.

“ baby stop before dad comes in here

knocking. I’m pretty sure they know that you
are here with me and they will think that we
are probably having sex right now. ” I say
giggling.

Laying on his back facing upwards he

signs. He plays with his ring that I got him
smiling. “ we are getting tomorrow and we
don’t have rings? ” we laugh.

“ it’s all your fault that we don’t have rings. ”

I tell him. He shakes his head. We lay in the
bed not saying anything in comfortable
silence in each other’s arms. His hand on
my stomach another one around my
shoulder. My leg is between his head on his
chest listening to the steady heartbeat in his
chest. “in a few hours time you’ll be Mrs
Gumede ”

I can’t remember the last time we laid like

this in comfortable silence. I love this
feeling I really do. “ you have to go baby ”
he groans “ I know I don’t want you to leave
too. I can’t wait to call you my husband. ”

“ I love you baby. ”

“ I love you too. ” he kisses me again.

Kisses my stomach. “ I’ll see you tomorrow
love don’t be late. ” I giggle. “ you are the
one who better be there on time. Baby
please don’t drink? ” he chuckles. He’s
about to say something when someone
holds the door handle and knocks. “ I won’t
drink baby I promise. ” he opens the door
and leaves. Sims Preston and all my
cousins get in holding bottles of
champagne. They join me in bed and
scream excited that tomorrow I’m getting
married. They offer me a glass of non
alcoholic champagne play music
dancing. The moms and aunts join us and
it turns out to be a party for all of us in the
bedroom. They share with me how happy
they are that I’m finally marrying mbuso
what I mean to them and a whole of things.

Tears are shared too as I tell them how

grateful I am for each and everyone of
them. They drink up until aunt lwethu tells
them to stop they will drink again after the
wedding. They understand leave my room
but Sims stays behind and sleeps with me.
“ I knew this day will come for one of us. I
knew that one day we will be happy and get
the love we deserve. ” she says slurring.

“ we are going to be sister in-laws I can’t

wait. ” I say excited. She giggles like
someone is tickling her. “ who would have
thought that we would fall for brothers? ”
she says.
She is right cause never in a million years
have I ever thought that We would fall for
brothers or even get married to the same
family. I hope bonga will one day propose
to her. “ I’m glad though that I’m marrying
into a lovely family. Imagine if his mother
didn’t like me and hate me? ”

“ I’m scared that she might not like me. ”

she says sadly.. I look at her and see that it
bothers her. “ did she say something to
you? ”

She shakes her no looking at me. “ no she

hasn’t but I have two kids with different
baby daddies and bonga doesn’t have any
kids. What if she wants him to be with
someone who doesn’t have kids? ”. I take
her hand “ she’s a nice woman sis and she
knows you. She knows that you are a great
mom to your kids we don’t know if bonga
has said something to her about you guys
but you will cross that bridge when you get
there. I think bonga did tell you he lost his
kids so I don’t think she can judge you for
that.. ”

“ yeah you are right. I hope what we have

with bonga will grow into something big. I
look up to you guys you know. You and
mbuso are an inspiration and you have
been through a lot but everyday your
relationship gets stronger and stronger.
Mbuso loves you luh and you are the only
woman he sees no one else. He worships
the ground you walk in and will do anything
to make you happy and that makes me
happy cause I know you will always be safe
and protected. You remember when I said
that there is something different about
mbuso that he is not the man I first met. He
is not intense like before? ”

I hated that when she said it but I never told

her. “ yeah I remember. ” she drinks again
straight from the bottle then looks at me. “
he wasn’t intense like before because I
think he finally found love you changed him
luh. He isn’t as scary as he was before
because when he is with you he is a
completely different person. You tamed
mbuso and I’m not saying this because I
think I know him no sis. I’m saying this
because as we were helping outside he has
this aura of don’t talk to me I don’t smile
and I’m very scary ” she says imitating
mbuso’s voice and I laugh. “ but when he is
with you he is easily approachable smiles
Sponsored
laughs and talks a lot something he doesn’t
do when you are not there ok maybe with
his brothers I don’t know but you get what I
mean. ” I do.

“ he has too toughened you up a lot and I

love seeing this don’t mess with me luh
person. I wish you the very best luh I hope
God will bless you with everything you have
ever wanted and wish to have. I wish you
the best in your marriage and as you start
your family with mbuso. God will watch over
you two and always know that no matter
how difficult things get you have a shoulder
to cry on cause I’m always going to be
here not going anywhere. But first you talk
to God and invite him into your marriage he
is the only third person allowed in your
marriage and no one else. I thank you for
not cutting me off from your life when you
found your real family because I was
scared that you will not need me. Thank
you for everything you have done and keep
doing for us. I’m blessed to have you as my
sister and I promise you no one will break
or come between this bond we have. I love
you ”

I wipe tears off sit up high her tight pouring

my love for her. Blood or not sims is my
sister and I will always make sure she lives
the life she wants to live with her kids. They
are my family too. “ you have always
watched over me and now it’s my turn to
take care of you and your kids. I love you
so much sis. Thank you for always being
my rock and shoulder to cry on. ” we wipe
each other’s tears off then laugh.

We talk all night like we used to until I fall

asleep. Someone shakes me a little and I
almost think it’s sims kids but it’s my
brother. He smiles I groan he laughs “ why
did you wake me up though ” I don’t like
him right now. I look at the time and it’s 6
am. “ look at the time scelo ” I say whining.
“ get up I want to take you somewhere. ”

“ I’m not running away scelo!. I’m marrying

mbuso okay!. ” he laughs so deep sims
ends up joining him and they laugh at me. “
you are not a morning person sis. ” he says
still laughing.

“ she never was. She was worse when we

had to go to school during winter. She was
always late. ” sims say and I remember.
We laugh. “ there’s only one person who is
missing here. ” my brother says. We get
quiet.

“ he would be so excited right now. He

would have woken us up like you did. He
would have woken everyone in the house
with so much noise telling everyone who
cared to listen that his yellow bone sister is
getting married. ” he would have done
exactly that.

“ I miss him you know but I know he’s

happy and watching over us from up there ”
I tell them they nod. “ where are we going
brother? ” He smiles and helps me get up.
I’m wearing just my nightie he gives me my
robe and I put in on and wear my slippers. “
I’m going to pee I’ll be back. ” I go to the
bathroom. Do my business then come
back. “ let’s go. ”

“ sims you can come too and join us. ” she

shakes her head no and covers herself with
a blanket. The house is still packed full with
other people I haven’t met. We greet them
then get in the car and drive off heading to
the farm. He stops the car opens my door
and I get out. “ what are we doing here? ”
He smiles takes my hand and I follow him
as he continues to walk up until we get to
this hill or something not too high for me but
with my brothers help I finally stand on top
of it and see so much green grass trees
and a river flowing it looks so beautiful. We
go to this tree and I see that he has made a
picnic breakfast for us. I laugh hugging him.
“ whoever is going to marry you is going to
be the happiest woman. ” he smirks. “ thank
your for preparing this for us. ”

The food laid down has everything.

Whoever made this thought of everything
and I just want to eat all the things I’m here
cause they look delicious.“ I wanted to take
you out for breakfast and talk before you
get married. ” I sit down he pours me cold
apple juice and it tastes great. “ I wanted to
talk to you about mbuso. I know you love
him and everything but I want to be sure as
your brother that you know what you are
getting yourself into by marrying him. ”

“ brother I know that you are looking out for

me as your sister but you shouldn’t worry
yourself. Knowing living and loving mbuso
has taught me many things. He has opened
my eyes to see that the life isn’t just colours
of rainbow but also dark and very scary. I
know that he has killed people for me but I
don’t know how many. I know that he will do
it again if someone threatens my safety or
wants to harm his family. He will always
have this dark aura around him cause he is
it and I love him just as he is. I will kill for
him take a bullet for him and make sure that
whoever means him harm doesn’t see the
light of day. You all killers sicelo I’m not
going to pretend that I don’t know that side
all of you have that it doesn’t exist. He is
mine and I am his. No one will take him
away from me.”

“ I’m glad you know that cause I didn’t want

you walking I’m blind. ” he says and that’s a
problem. “ you need to stop deciding what
is best for me. My mistakes are mine to
learn and grow from them. I know the will
come a time where mbuso will leave this
other life behind but for now I am going to
support him in every way. ”

He looks at me with so much respect like

maybe he didn’t expect all these things to
come out of mouth. “ but if he hurts you
again I won’t hesitate to fight back. ”

I know he won’t and I don’t want that. I don’t

know what the future holds for me and him
but I’m going to stress about what if
situations. “ I’m going to need all of to step
back and let us figure things I’m our
marriage. When we need help we will let
you but scelo you have to know that in
relationships and marriages too there are
problems that we face and still are going to
face. I need you as my brother to be just
there for me and not get involved too much.
We don’t fight with each other scelo. We
fight with people who want to fight with the
Ngcobo and Gumede family that’s all. ” I’m
saying all of these things stuffing my face
with food. “ you have grown up luh from the
time I met you again and now you have
grown so much and mbuso is rubbing off of
you really well cause you need to be tough
and strong as mbuso’s wife and not let
anything shake you down. You face it head
on and deal with it. ” I nod.

“ I wish you the best sis. I wish mom was

here to share this beautiful moment with
you. Dad is probably going to cry his eyes
out. ” he says and we laugh. “ mbuso better
cry too or I’m going back and walk down the
isle again until he cries. ” we both laugh out
loud.

CHAPTER 42.

LUNGI.

When we got back from my breakfast picnic

that my brother made for me the house was
in chaos. I so badly wanted to go to the
backyard and see how far they are from
finishing but sims and Preston would have
none of that. I went to shower and went to
do my make up and hair for almost 4 hours
and by the time they were done I was over
it. The photographer and videographer
record everything from the moment I
stepped in the house.
Mah came and helped me get in my dress.
Whenever she would try to talk tears would
just fall down I told her I know how she
feels she’s proud maybe scared but for sure
happy for me. We shared along tight hug
then she left. Mbuso’s mom came too with
aunt lwethu and they expressed how happy
they are that I’m going to be part of their
family and for taming mbuso we laughed.
They wished us the best in the journey we
are about to take and then she gave
something borrowed which was her tiara
that she wore when she got married to
mbuso’s dad. It’s a vintage tiara and I
appreciate it very much. I thank her and
they left with tears in her eyes.

I’m standing in front of the mirror watching

myself and I look like a completely different
person. I have never seen myself looking
this beautiful. The makeup artist Preston
found did an amazing job. He didn’t put too
much make up but enhanced my natural
beauty. Mbuso won’t know what hit him
when I walk down the isle and he better
cry.

Sibusiso is a God sent because the

designer he knows from Durban came
prepared like he has clothes for plus size
women too and I was so happy because
everyone including the dads got something
to wear. He said he had to pull some strings
when he heard that the bride is pregnant to
get a dress and Oh my God it is beautiful
and I couldn’t be more happier. I did let the
designer who is making my dress that I’m
getting married but he shouldn’t worry
cause I am still going to need his services
and he understood. I can’t believe I’m really
getting married to the man of my dreams..
I’m finally marrying this man that I love very
much.

The girls are all looking amazing with their

bridesmaid dresses even Preston but I
haven’t seen that men at all and I’m
wondering how they actually look. Sims has
been a mess crying non stop making me
cry too. She gave me something blue for
me to wear and it is a blue lace garter and it
fits me perfectly. We held each other and
cried tears of joy. The make-up artist finally
had enough of us crying and kicked sims
out. It was so funny.

Someone knocks on the door. “ Come in ” I

say it’s uncle Victor. He looks so handsome
with his champagne suit and cream shirt.
He looks at my bridesmaid and they nod
leave to give us some privacy but the
videographer and photographer stay
behind. He stands next to me and wipes my
tears off gently with his handkerchief. “ we
don’t want Preston to kill is now do we? ” he
says and he sounds and looks so
emotional. “ no we don’t. Thank you for
being here. ” he smiles takes my hands in
his.

“ I am so proud of the woman you have

become. Years ago you were just this little
baby running around in front of me but look
at you now. All grown up expecting my
grandkid and getting married. I knew this
day would come and I thought I had
prepared myself to let you go but now I’m
not sure. ” a tear fall down his cheek.

“ you have been a perfect daughter lungile.

You have never given me trouble or well
other than that time you got really drunk
and wouldn’t leave the club ” we both laugh.
“ but you have been a disciplined child and I
am proud to call you my daughter. When I
told you that time that I knew mbuso is
going to choose you I had hope that you
guys would really make it and after
everything you have been through you did.
You two are meant for each other and no
one can separate you. When you need me
always know that I am here and I will
continue to do anything a father does for
their kids. Love mbuso respect him as your
husband and the head of his family. When
things get tough you ask for a family
meeting and not talk to your friends baby
about your marriage problems. Watch out
for your family and make us proud. Stand
your ground and let mbuso or anyone know
that they can’t walk all over you. I love you
my child and I wish you all the best. ” I hug
him tight.
“ I love you too baba. Thank you for the
advise and wise words. Thank you for being
there and raising me to be the woman I am
today. My child is going to have three very
over protective grandfathers. I hope she’s a
girl to drive all of you crazy. Thank you
baba. ” I wipe his tears off smiling we laugh.
“ I’ll see you when we walk you down the
isle. ” he says and kisses my cheek and
leaves.

Whew that was so emotional and touching.

I’m worried about him though because he
was too emotional like something was
wrong with him but maybe it’s just my
imagination and he’s really emotional cause
I’m getting married. There’s a knock again
and the door opens and wow it’s zipho. The
Gumede's last born. “ wow! Wow! Wow!.
My brother is going to faint the moment he
lays his eyes on you sis luh. You look so
beautiful. I have seen weddings and have
been to many but I don’t think I have ever
seen a bride as beautiful as you. I’m lucky
to have a sister in-law who’s so very
beautiful. ” this one has always been a
charmer.

“ thank you zipho you look so handsome

and I bet many women have their eyes on
you waiting for you to ask them out. ” he
chuckles smiling. He looks like he’s
brothers but you can see that he is a
smooth talker and would charm any girl. “ I
have a little something from my brother he
said he hopes this will make up for what he
couldn’t give you today. ” he says. ok what
is that?. He fishes for something in his
breast pocket and takes out velvet box. “
what do you have in there? ” I ask him
smiling. He chuckles he looks cute.
“ he said this is something new and he
hopes you will love it. He asked me to put it
on you if that’s okay. ” I nod. He opens it
and shows me the most beautiful diamond
necklace I have ever seen. It has diamonds
a huge one is in the middle and the small
one’s are surrounding it and wow it
absolutely breath taking.

“ wow zipho I love it. Oh my God I can’t

believe he got me a diamond necklace and
it is so beautiful. This diamond is huge. ” I
tell him. A beautiful woman like you
deserves only the finest things in life. Turn
around and let me put it on. ” I turn around
and he puts it on me and it is cold as it
touches my warm skin. I look at myself in
the mirror and it suits me. Zipho is almost
as tall as his brothers but mbuso is taller
than the both of them.
“ pregnancy looks beautiful on you. Our
child is treating you really good and I can’t
wait to meet him or her . ” zipho though he
says looking at me through the mirror. I
smile. “ can I touch your stomach and feel
it? ” I nod. He puts his hand and my babies
move and he chuckles. “ does it hurts when
she does that? ” I giggle. “ a she? no she
doesn’t . I love it when she or he moves
and plays. ” I really do.

“ wow!. This is beautiful. I’m going to spoil

her and I really hope it’s a girl so she can
drive her dad crazy ” we both laugh. “ let
me go before my brother kills me but before
I leave I want to say to you thank you for
bringing change into his life and making him
a better brother a better son and a better
man than he was before you came into his
life. Thank you sis lungi.” He says kisses
my cheek and leaves. I stand there looking
at my diamond ring. I’m in awe.
The only thing now left is something old and
I wonder who is going to give it to me and
what is it. My dad comes in with his son
following behind and they look very
handsome. “ my two favourite men in the
whole wide world. Are you ready to take me
down the isle? ” I ask them smiling and dad
is looking at me with tears in his eyes. “ dad
please don’t cry. ” he has tears in his eyes.

“ you were this little baby that loved to smile

and follow her big brother around wherever
he went and it used to drive him crazy.
Then one day our lives changed and I lost
all of you then found you again. Whenever I
look at you I still see my little girl but I know
you are a grown woman now and
sometimes it is hard for me to accept. ” he
stops and takes a deep breath. “ I’ll will
always be your little girl baba no matter how
old I get. ” he smiles.

“ no baby. You are a woman who is getting

married in a few hours time. I have seen
you growing up these past few months and
I am very proud of you lungile. I promise to
stand back and let you and mbuso do
things your way
Sponsored
kisses my cheek and leaves. I stand there
looking at my diamond ring. I’m in awe.

The only thing now left is something old and

I wonder who is going to give it to me and
what is it. My dad comes in with his son
following behind and they look very
handsome. “ my two favourite men in the
whole wide world. Are you ready to take me
down the isle? ” I ask them smiling and dad
is looking at me with tears in his eyes. “ dad

“ you were this little baby that loved to smile

“ no baby. You are a woman who is getting

married in a few hours time. I have seen
you growing up these past few months and
I am very proud of you lungile. I promise to
stand back and let you and mbuso do
things your way I wont interfere in your
marriage until you ask me to. Your brother
told me that you feel like we are getting
over involved in your affairs and I agree
even though I don’t want to. I always want
to protect because I couldn’t all these years
you weren’t here. ”

“ dad what happened we all had no control

over it and I don’t want you to feel guilty or
feel like you have to make up for not being
in my life. What I need from you both is to
spoil and be there for her or him. You will
not miss anything important that involve all
the kids I am going to have. Your kids too
sicelo we will not miss anything. I love the
both of you very much and thank you for
accepting mbuso as another son of this
family. I need you sicelo to watch him and
protect him like he is your brother because I
know he will do the same for you. I will not
survive if anything happens to him. I need
him in my life. He is the only man I will
always love and need in my life. ”

“ don’t worry sis. Mbuso is my brother and I

will not let anything happen to him no
matter what. ” I nod. “ we have something
for you but we need you to close your
eyes.” I close my eyes giggling excited. “
what do you have for me? ”. I hear shuffling
a door opening and closing then sicelo
stands next to me.

“ I wish she was here with us today but I

know in spirit she is. I know she would have
loved to give you this herself or maybe
something else but I thought you would
really love this something old. I took it to
your uncle’s wife cause she’s the best at
these things so she can bring some life into
it and well your aunt said it looks beautiful
but I don’t know if it will match with your
dress. Son help me ” he says. I feel
something being placed over my head and
it falls down covering my arms and back.
Tears fill my eyes as I realise that it is my
mother’s veil. I’m going to walking down the
isle wearing the same veil my mother had
when she married my dad.

“ open your eyes baby and see how

beautiful you look. ” my dad says. I open
my eyes and see both of them standing on
my sides looking at me at the mirror. My
mother’s veil looks beautiful and it almost
matches my cream dress. Tears of joy fall
down my cheeks cause I am wearing
something old that belongs to my mother
and it makes me feel so much closer to her
than I have ever felt. “ thank you baba for
giving me this veil that mom wore. I will
cherish this moment for as long as I live
and I will pass it down to my kids too when
they get married. I love you guys. ” I say
choking up. Dad hugs me and my brother
too I wrap both my hands around them. “
we love you too baby. I’m sure your groom
is waiting for you baby let us not keep you. ”

“ thank you for being the best parent for me

baba and I promise I will make you proud
and not disappoint you. ”. “I know you will
baby. The Gumede family is very blessed to
have you as their daughter too. You build
that family and make it stronger than it has
ever been. ”. “ I will dad. ” they both kiss my
cheeks.

The door opens again and it’s my whole

family. My uncles aunts cousins the whole
Ngcobo family is here with Sims uncle
Victor and Preston too. They get in and
close the door. “ stand in the middle baby
we have to pray for you. ” my uncles wife
says. I stand in the middle they form a circle
around me and then sing Joyous
Celebration- Unikiwe ” with my aunt leading
she can sing that one. We sing while I’m
standing in the middle with them
surrounding me and when the song ends
they stretch their hands to me. We close
our eyes and everyone begins to pray. I feel
their love protection and best wishes.

When we are done praying they all leave

leaving me alone. I look at myself one last
time then leave my father’s bedroom. Sims
gives me my beautiful bouquet. We walk
until we stop where my dad and uncle
Victor are waiting for me. She walks for a
while “ okay dads when the music plays you
walk her down the isle. ” Preston says. I
look at him and he blows me a kiss.

The music plays they both hold my arms

and walk me down the isle but midday
uncle Victor stops we stop too and I look at
him. He kisses my cheek through the veil. “
your dad has it covered from here. ” I nod
look at my dad and continue to walk. I was
looking down the whole time. I look up and
my eyes land on mbuso and he looks like
he has just stepped out of a high end
fashion shoot. My baby is drop dead
gorgeous wearing his cream or ivory suit I
don’t know what colour it is but he looks
amazing.

I look at his face and see those beautiful

tears falling down his face to his beard. He
covers his eyes and his shoulders shake as
he cries. His brother clamps his shoulder
comforting him. We stop next to him and he
wipes his tears off and looks at my dad.

“ who gives away this woman to marry this

man? ” the reverend asks
“ I do ” my dad says. He gives mbuso my
hand. “ love her protect her and honour her.
If you fail to do that or you feel like you
have had enough please bring her back
home. You out your hands in her ever again
I will kill you and she will mourn you. Good
luck son I wish the both of you the best. ”
he says. “ I will make her very happy
mapholoba. ” They hug and my dad
leaves.

“ you look beautiful maNgcobo ” I smile.

LUNGI.
“ I love the sound of that coming from your
sweet lips love. I can’t believe we are
actually married. Holly shit we fucken did it
baby ” I laugh.

“ we are really married for real this time. No

fake marriage baby. ”

“ did I tell you how much I love you

and proud that you chose me and you get
to call me your husband? ”

“ nope I don’t remember but you can tell me

again. ”

“ sir down baby do your feet hurt? ”

“ no I’m wearing sleepers ” I say giggling we
sit on the bed.

“ your love humbles me Mrs Gumede. You

are one in a million. Your beauty shines
from within and it makes everything around
you beautiful like you are. ” he sounds so
emotional right now. In brush his face.

“ you make it easy for me to love you. I

would do this with you all over again. We
are not joined together for life. ” he smiles.

“ the only thing left now is to get the

traditional wedding out the way. ”
“ can we not do that after I’ve given birth to
the kids? ”

“ no. The planners are already planning it

baby. I want everything done so we can
focus on the birth of our kids. I want to
focus on you and nothing else. ”

“ oh God. When did they say they can get it

done? ”

“ you’ll have to ask sims she’s the one

handling everything. ”

“ getting married while your pregnant is

exhausting. I really have no energy of going
through another wedding but I know we
have to do it so since your whole family is
her why don’t you guys start the
negotiations tomorrow cause we are
already married. ”

“ wow baby you won’t believe this but we

had actually talked about it and decided
that tomorrow we will have the negotiations.
” that is great then.

“ I’m glad then that we are on the same

page. ” someone knocks in the door and I
think it’s sims.

“ come in. ” sims pokes her head. We get

up. I’m so hungry though.

5“ Congratulations you guys!. You finally

got married. ” she’s so excited. She hugs
me and hugs mbuso too.
“ thank you sims for being there for luh all
this time. Thank you ” my husband says.

“ she’s my sister and I know she would do

the same for me too. we are ready for you
Mr and Mrs. Gumede and prepare to be
blown.” she say smiling clapping her
hands.

We get up and follow her and she takes us

to where we are going to shoot our wedding
pictures and the space they created is
absolutely beautiful. The family is there
waiting for us. We sit pose and do all kinds
of things taking photos with every one. An
hour later we are still taking pics and I am
so done. It’s hot the dress is starting to feel
heavy and I am hungry. I try to be patient
by thirty minutes later I’m done.
“ ok we have taken thousands of picture
and they are enough guys. I’m hungry. Can
we go and eat so I can go and rest.” They
laugh.

“ ok guys you see that huge frame tent over

there? please go to it. The bride and groom
will follow you just now. Let’s go guys come
on. ” Preston says. They leave us and after
a 10 minutes we follow them.

“ can we skip the reception and go home?. ”

they both laugh.

“ that would be rude love. ”

“ is there a program? ” I sims.

“ Preston made sure that there is. ” just
great I hope they won’t talk for long.

“ who’s the MC? ” mbuso asks

“ it’s bonga. ” she says. We stand outside

the marquee. The music is playing our
families are laughing enjoying themselves
and the food smells absolutely divine. I’m
sure. Sis nonto and the other ladies
outdone themselves. Preston sees us and
he says something to someone on the ear
piece then there’s silence.

“ ok guys go ahead. ”
We walk and then the curtains open and I
am in awe. I am so shocked because I
didn’t think this was possible I’m only just
one day. Not even a whole day. I look at my
husband and he’s as shocked as I
am. They all stand up and clap for us as
Bonga introduces. I look around and it’s like
I’m in someone else’s wedding. One of the
planners guides us to out chairs and we sit
down. The reverend opens with a
prayer then the program begins. Both our
families share their lovely wishes for us our
friends best man and the maid of honour.
We eat we share our first dance as
husband and wife with my dad. We cut the
cake feed each other give the other to his
mom and he gives the other one to mah.

The time to throw the bouquet comes all the

single ladies line up. I check to see if
everyone single lady is there and when I
see everyone is there I throw the bouquet
then watch and see sims catch it. I really
wanted her to catch it. I sit down and it’s
mbuso's turn to take off the garter. He
kneels down gets inside my dress and
kisses his way up my leg until he reaches
the garter nut he keeps kissing my leg. I’m
just glad that his hands are not there. I don’t
know why mbuso does this because he
knows I blush easily. I cover my face and
they all laugh.

He grabs it with his mouth and uses his

teeth to pull it down my leg and finally
emerges from under my dress. He grins the
kisses me. Lifts the garter up and all the
guys line up. He throws it but some run
away when he does and it lands on
sibusiso. He’s the one who catches it he
grins then puts it around bonga's head.. Ok.
We all laugh. Bonga goes to sims and
kisses her and she gets shy. Sims getting
shy who knew?.
We thank everyone for coming and
supporting us in every way. Bonga closes
the ceremony with a toast to us and our
friends and family join him. We go to the
dance floor and dance for only two songs
then me and my husband leave. They all
gather outside forming two lines and we
walk between them as they cheer and
throw flowers on us. We get in the car
written “ just got married ” with frank as our
chaperone. He takes us home and leaves
us there and the gate closes after him then
my husband picks me up and I almost
scream.

“ what are you doing baby I’m heavy. ” I ask

him giggling.
“ carrying you over the threshold wife.
Stealing you from your family and beginning
a new life with me as your husband. ” he
says walking to the living room door
opening it and closes it with his leg. He
walks in carrying me and continues to walk
on until he puts me down on our bed. I sigh
cause I missed my bed. I lay on my side
and look at him. He goes to lock up and
comes back.

“ I’m going to run us a bath. Don’t sleep

baby. ” he says and I laugh. He goes to the
bathroom then cones back. “ get up. ” I do
as he says. “ turn around my love. ” I do. He
takes off the veil and my head feels loose. I
didn’t realise it was that tight. “ where did
you get this veil love? ”
“ dad said it was mom’s. I forgot to ask him
where he got it cause I thought everything
got burnt. ”

“ maybe it was left here before they moved.

” I think so too

“ I wonder if her dress is here too. I’ll have

to ask dad cause if it is too then I want
some of it to be included in my wedding
dress. ” he kisses my nape.

“ that would be lovely. You looked beautiful

in this one too. ” he unzips my dress and it
falls down. He chuckles.

“ what’s funny my husband ” we both laugh.

God I’m tired.
“ I love seeing you in granny panties. ” I turn
and poke him lightly. “ I’m serious baby you
look hot in them. Your breasts have grown
too and I love them. Can I suckle on them?
”

“ you want to taste breasts milk? ”

“ yeah why not?. It’s healthy and I read it

tastes good. ” I laugh.

“ gosh I can’t with you. ” he kneels down

and takes my granny panties off. He stands
and I help him get out of his clothes. We go
to the bathroom and get in the bathtub. I lay
my head on his chest and we stay silent
just listening to our hearts and enjoying the
moment.
“ I live being here like this with you. ”

“ I love it too baby. Do you think we are

boring? ” I ask him

“ ngeke baby kungani ushonjalo? ” ( no

baby why do you say that?.) We laugh.

“ I mean look at us. It’s our wedding day we

left the party came home so it can be just
the two of us and we are in the bathtub
sitting. ”

“ we are having a precious moment I would

rather have that than dance and drink. You
are pregnant baby you need me and you
are still on bed. The times for going out and
taking you to dinner spoiling you like you
deserve will come baby. There’s nothing
boring about us. ” he so thoughtful when it
comes to me. It's one of the things I love
about him.

“ thank you for this Phakathwayo myeni

wami. ” ( thank you my husband. )

“ let’s get out and go rest in bed. ” no

wedding sex for us I mean I’m not
complaining cause I really want to sleep.

“ are we going to have sex boo? ” I ask him

smiling.

“ you want me to sex you love? ” I giggle.

He gets up helps me get up too and we get
out of the bath. He dries me and wraps the
towel around me then dries himself. I take
the tissue oil and bring it with me to the
bedroom.

“ baby? ”

“ yes love?. ” he says pulling the pillows off

from the bed.

“ can you bring me a clean town and lay it

down on the floor helps me get up too and
we get out of the bath. He dries me and
wraps the towel around me then dries
himself. I take the tissue oil and bring it with
me to the bedroom.

“ baby? ”
“ yes love?. ” he says pulling the pillows off
from the bed.

“ can you bring me a clean town and lay it

down on the floor here in the middle? ” He
brings it and lays it down.

“ lay down baby I’m going to give you a

massage. You had a long day and you
didn’t sleep at all last night. ” he grins this
idiot. I change the TV channel and put the
radio on and play Radio 2000. I turn the
lights to dim and to give it that romantic
atmosphere.

“ I have never gotten a massage before.

This will be my first time love and I love the
music. ” he chuckles.
“ I hope your first time will be very
memorable. Lay on your back baby. ” he
lays down and I sit on top of him. I drizzle
the oil all over his back and begin to
massage his broad shoulders and his back.
My hands move sleek and softly on his
skin. I massage each and every muscle and
he relaxes his body groans. I move down to
his cute Shapley buttocks I giggle. I
massage them his hard harry thighs too
legs and feet. The mmm sounds he makes
vibrate from deep within him and they make
me wet.

“ turn over baby my love. ” he lays on his

back and he’s full erect. “ oh hello there Mr
Gumede you so oh yummy. ” he laughs.

“ he needs some attention love. ” I smirk. I

sit on top of him and my vagina on top of
his dick facing up and over his belly button.
I drizzle the oil again massage his neck
arms his chest God his chest. I move off a
life so I can be able to massage his
stomach I do so avoiding his dick that is on
my face. I get off him completely and go
downward massaging his long legs and feet
then move up again and give his proud
member some attention.

I pull his legs apart and massage his balls.

They are so heavy hard and I want them in
my mouth. I leave them and attend his
proud member that’s leaking pre-cum
wrapped my hands around it and look at
him. He keeps biting his lips his eyes are
focused on me and his dick gets harder and
harder the more I keep jacking him off. I
love seeing him like this letting go and
giving me control. I get up sit on top of him
then lift my hips take his dick in my hands
and ease myself in him taking every inch of
him one at a time. We both groan I lift my
hips up again and go down taking all of him
in me God it feels so good.

I begin the tempo slowly of me moving up

down and sideways every way possible. My
boobs bounce up and down and I grind on
top of him. He lifts his body up and claims
my mouth. He tastes so good like the glass
of while he drank earlier. We kiss hungrily
desperate to feel each other. I want to be
inside his skin deep in his soul and take
over. I push him back to his back and place
my hands on his stomach and move my
hips and waist. His dick feels so good
buried deep in me. His pubic hair brushing
against mine makes my blood boil. I get up
turn and sheath myself in him again facing
away from him so he can get a proper look
of my ass and his dick coming in and out of
me. I hold on to his knees and move my
hips ass and bounce on his dick. I fuck him
reverse style and he loves it. He grunts and
groans making me shake that ass hard. He
spanks it and curses. He’s loving it.

He grabs my waist and takes over and

fucks me that way hitting every nerve in and
out of my vagina. I can feel myself getting
ready to cum but I don’t want to. I pull his
dick out turn and take him in me again with
me on top of him. I bounce grind and make
it clap as much as I can with my two babies
in me. He grabs my waist and takes control
again and I almost laugh. He flicks my clit
once twice and it’s enough for me to cum
my pussy muscles contracting all around
his dick. Fuck sex is fucken amazing when
you’re doing it with someone you love and
they love you back.

He picks me up takes me to our bed and

enters me from the side. We make sweet
passionate love as husband and wife.
Continual Of Chapter 43
LUNGI.

TWO MONTHS LATER.

The last two months have been hectic for

us after the wedding cause the next day
they held the negotiations and my family
accepted the lobola money. I have no idea
how much they asked for my hand in
marriage but it made me happy that
everything went well. The next week we
had our traditional wedding and I must say
it was the longest day of my life. By the time
we were done I was over and done with it
cause I was exhausted so you can now call
me Mrs Gumede officially traditionally.

Our wedding was really beautiful and

seeing mbuso doing his traditional dance
was the icing on the cake and on being
smeared with the bile and tasting it even
though it is bitter and almost made me
vomit but other than that everything was
just a perfect priceless beautiful moment.
There were so many people in our wedding
it was crazy. I have no idea who invited
them but the gifts we received were crazy.
Well I did my new bride duties at his
parents house for a week. Well I wouldn’t
call it my “ Makoti ” duties cause all I did
was just make them tea and sandwiches.
My in-laws didn’t want me to do anything
but I did help out in the house when they
were not around. I am lucky that I married
into a good family cause most people don’t
get to have that kind of experience.

I’m 7 months pregnant now and well the

secret is out that we are having twins cause
Preston blabbermouth told everyone when
we were having lunch and mbuso almost
killed him literally. I don’t know if it’s the
wine he was drinking or maybe he doesn’t
know how to keep things to himself. It
made me worried that if he can’t keep such
a small thing to himself then what about the
other things he has heard and maybe saw
in this family?. I hope we won’t regret
welcoming him into our family. I wonder if
mbuso knows where Preston comes from
and why he’s really distanced from his
family. .

“ sis luh? the security says there are cops

outside the gate. ” nonto says. Cops? why
are they here and what do they want?.

“ did he call my husband and let him

know?”

“ I don’t know. I can ask him though ”

“ uhm I’ll him nonto tell him to let the police
in. We don’t want to keep them waiting ”

“ ok sis luh. ” I call mbuso.

“ lovey baby sweetie my beautiful wife. Miss

me already? ” I giggle

“ I saw you in the morning baby. Mbuso

there are cops outside. ”

“ what? what do they want? ” his tone

changes.
“ I don’t know. I told nonto to let them in
cause we don’t want to keep them waiting.
Where are you? ”

“ you did good. Let them in but don’t say

anything. I’ll be there in ten minutes. ”

“ ok. ” I hang up. I wonder what could the

police want.

“ sis luh here they are. ” she says behind

me.

“ please take a sea…” I say getting up and

turning but I don’t get to finish cause I’m
shocked as I see the person in front of me.
What the hell?.
“ Paul? ” that’s my ex Paul f rom
standerton. He’s a cop. He’s with his
partner Dumisani. What are they doing
here?.

“ hello lungi wow you’re pregnant? ” he

says looking at me shocked then he
surprises me and hugs me. I stand there
awkward. I don’t return his hug.

“ what are you doing here? ” I ask him and

he looks at me and smiles.

“ we are here to ask you some questions. ”

says Dumisani.

“ you can sit down. Questions about what

cause I don’t live in Standerton anymore? ”
they sit.
“ about your parents and sister. ” what the
hell!.

“ they are not my parents. What happened?

”

“ they are missing. All three of them are

missing and no one has seen them in
months. The last time we saw buhle was at
your brothers funeral with some strange
men and your parents were not there ”

“ I told you they are not my parents!. ”

“ Lungi what…. ”
“ that’s Mrs Gumede to you not lungi. ” I’ll
never get used to him doing that. He is
followed in by my brother and father. Paul
and Dumisani stand up.

“ Mr Gumede Mr Ngcobo Mr Ngcobo junior.

I’m detective Nkabinde and this is my
partner detective Hlongwane. ” he knows
my family so what is Paul playing at?.

“ sit down. What can we help you with? ” he

sits next to me. My dad sits next to Paul
and sicelo sits next to dumisane. They are
caging them in. Dumisane looks at them
nervously.

“ Mr Gumede we are here to ask your wife

about her parents. ”
“ they are not my parents Paul! how many
times must I tell you that? ” my husband
looks at me then looks at them.

“ which one of you is Paul? ”

“ I am Paul Nkabinde. I guess she told you

about me? ” this fool laughs. Does he know
who mbuso is?.

“ I am her father. Her only parent. Those

people are not her parents. ”

“ we know that you are her father but we

can’t ignore the fact that she used to live
with the mazibuko's and they were her
parents. We have some questions to ask
her. ”
“ ask then what are you busy wasting our
time? ”

“ luh.. Mrs Gumede when was the last time

you saw Mr mazibuko’s and his wife. ”

“ I last saw them when they married me off

to my husband here. That’s the last time I
saw them or talked to them. Why are you
asking me about them? ”

“ we are the one’s asking the questions

here not you lungi. ”

“ this is her house she will ask whatever

questions she wants to ask if you want
answers to your questions too. Mrs
Gumede.”

“ ok Mr gumede. Mrs Gumede when did

you last see your… u buhle? ” Dumisani
asks

“ I saw her at the funeral. We didn’t talk

cause she left with the man she came with
and no I don’t know that man or have seen
him anywhere else before. ”

“ why didn’t you ask victor about his brother

and decided to come here? ”

“ we came here because victor doesn’t

know anything. We did ask him questions
and he doesn’t know the whereabouts of
his brother and his wife. ”
“ and you thought my sister would know? ”

“ we doing an investigation here cause his

mother reported him missing. Last week
and we have been investigating people
don’t just leave everything. Their jobs
house and cars and family then disappear.
Something happened and buhle's
behaviour at the funeral was very strange.”

“ well as she told you she doesn’t know

where they are. Is that all? ” mbuso says.

“ actually that’s not all. Do you know where

they are Mr Gumede? ” what? Dumisani
asks him.
“ why would I know where they are? ”

“ Mr Gumede ever since you came into

lungi’s life many strange things have been
happening with the mazibuko’s. Things that
make no sense. ”

“ things like what detective Nkabinde? ” I

ask him

“ like thami's death. Then the

disappearance of the mazibuko’s family.
Everyone is missing one is dead but the
only person who is still around is you lungi.
” Paul says.

“ what the hell are you trying to say?. ” I ask

Paul. This fucker.
“ it seems like someone is getting rid of
people from your past. They want to
eliminate that part of your life like it never
existed.”

“ someone like who Nkabinde? ” he is

pissing me off.

“ it could be your husband or your new

found family. ”

“ that’s enough. She has answered your

questions but I will not let you accuse us of
doing somethings to people we have no
idea of where they are. If you have any
questions you will send them to our lawyer.
”
“ we are still investigating Mr Gumede and
we will find the truth. We will be back. ” he
says then they get up Paul looks at me and
then leave.

“ where are they baba? ”

“ who baby? ”

“ Uthuli nosipho nonibuhle? ” they get silent.

I look at mbuso and he sighs.

“ they are dead love. ” I’m not shocked. I

expected that.

“ u buhle? ”
“ she’s dead too. ”

“ I can’t believe all of you. I thought I asked

you to not kill them until I give birth baba. ”

“ we couldn’t take the risk of keeping them

alive until you give birth baby cause we
they were liabilities. They had to die. ” my
husband says.

“ well did you at least record everything like

I asked you? ” I ask him.

“ us recording would mean there is proof of

us killing them. We don’t leave any
evidence luh you know that. ” mbuso says
“ did she really have to die though? ”

“ she was lost cause baby. We had to. ” my

dad says.

“ I guess it doesn’t matter now. ” I feel hurt

though that she’s dead. I still had hope for
her.

“ what did you do with their bodies? ”

“ we buried buhle in Standerton. ” sicelo

answers

“ did she die quick and painless? ”

“ we made sure baby. ” my dad says.

“ the other two bodies? ”

“ Luh you don’t need to know that. ”

“ dad the police were here and they are

investigating all of us. It’s not just me and
mbuso. They are investigating all of us.
What if next time they come with a search
warrant for the farm. Will they find anything
suspicious? ”

“ they won’t luh. I promise you. ” sicelo

says.
“ where are their bodies then? ”

“ we burned them and got rid of any trace. ”

mbuso answers

“ why didn’t you just kill them then leave

their bodies somewhere for someone to find
baba?. Cause now they are suspecting us.
”

“ we didn’t think of that. ”

“ you didn’t cause you hid things from me. I

know I’m pregnant baba but that doesn’t
mean you should hide something’s from
me. You need to find two bodies that were
involved in an accident or fire
unrecognizable and plant their DNA so they
will think it’s them. I have no idea where are
you going to find their DNA. ” mbuso looks
at me speechless.

“ I know someone that might help us with

that. ” my brother says.

“ I’ll find the bodies. ” mbuso says.

“ no you won’t. Dad and sicelo will fix this. I

need you here with me. ”

“ I’m sorry baby. I know you still loved her

and wanted her to be better and you didn’t
get the answers you wanted from her. I’m
sorry we took that away from you. ”

“ I’m hurt mbuso. It hurts me to know that

she’s really dead. She was once a good
person and she loved me. Something
changed and made her different. But she’s
at a better place now. ” he holds me.

“ she is healing baby. But she left

something behind. ”

“ what is it? ”

“ a child. He’s 12 years old and he lives with

another family. Victor has met him and they
are building a relationship. ”

“ I would like to meet him too. Who’s his

father? ” they look at each other.

“ we don’t know. ” my dad says.

“ no you know. Tell me. ”

“ sipho is his father. ”

“ oh my God he raped her?!. No wonder

buhle was this messed up. ”

“ she said they were in a relationship. ”

“ they weren’t in a relationship. Buhle used

to cry when she was alone with sipho. I was
little and so I thought sipho was punishing
her cause she did something wrong. He
would take her to their bedroom and lock
the door then after I would hear her crying. I
would ask her then she would sometimes
say I will know too some day that’s why I
never caused any trouble cause it scared
me to think sipho would punish me like he
punished buhle. ” I wipe my tears.

“ did he ever touch you in way that would

make you feel scared. ”

“ mbuso man what the fuck!. ” sicelo says

getting up. I look at my dad.

“ no I don’t remember I don’t think he has or

I would have known and told uncle Victor. ”
I look at my dad and he sighs.

“ he’s dead now. He won’t hurt anyone else

ever again. ”

“ are you going to be okay? ” dad asks me.

“ I will be once Paul and his partner get off
our backs. Deal with him. ”

“ we will. Son let’s go. We will see you later.

” I hug him and hug my brother then they
leave.

“ you want anything? ” he asks me

“ no boo. ”

“ are you mad at me that I hid this from you.

”

“ a little but I know that you would have told

me some time. I knew that day that
something bad happened when you came
back and I asked if you are okay and you
said yes. I think I knew that they were dead
cause whenever you go take care of
someone you come back sleeping that
smell. ”

“ I love how you know me. I don’t even have

to say anything to you and say I’m not okay.
You just know. ”

“ like how you know me. ” he kisses me.

“ let’s go cuddle then. ”

“ let’s cuddle here on the couch ”

“ I don’t want to get a boner in front of sis
nonto love. Let’s go to our bedroom. ” I
giggle. We go to our bedroom

“ I’m not having sex with you while sis nonto

is in the house. ”

“ she knows you are pregnant and loves

sex. ” we lay on the bed and face each
other.

“ can I tell you something? ”

“ you sound serious baby. ” it is.

“ promise me you will not to look at me

differently. ” I’ve been keeping this to myself
and or scares me to tell him about it.
“ you know all the things I do love and you
have never looked at me differently. What
you tell me would never make me love you
less respect you less or adore you even
less. ” he palms my cheek.

“ I think I was six or seven when sipho

would bath me he would finger me. It used
to hurt and he would tell me not to tell
anyone or else he would take me
somewhere and leave me alone to be eaten
by a lion then he would make me play with
his dick until it got hard. It used to scare me
and I didn’t know what was happening. ” I
say shaking my head.

“ I’m so sorry baby. I’m sorry for everything

he did to you. I wish I can kill him over and
over again. ” he brushes my stomach.
“ I can’t remember when it stopped but it did
after a few months. He never touched me
again ”

“ I’ll kill anyone who ever tries to touch you

or our kids like that. No one would ever hurt
you again. ” I believe him.

“ I know you my love. ”

“ so that’s your ex? ” he says laughing I

laugh too

“ he is ”
“ I can’t believe you dated that skinny guy ”
he laughs

“ I was young ok ” we laugh.

“ but you upgraded baby I mean look at me

” I laugh.

“ damn right I did. ” we laugh. “ can we keep

this between us what I told you. I don’t want
my family to know. ”

“ you don’t have to ask me baby. Your my

wife my responsibility. I think you should
talk to something though. ”

“ I think so too. ”
“ I’ll find you a good therapist. ”

“ ok love. ” he entwines our hands and we

look at each other. I love him.
CHAPTER 44
SICELO.

Seeing my sister getting married to the man

she loves was the best day of my life. She
is happy with him and they both love each
other. I know I don’t have to worry about
her cause I know mbuso will move heaven
and earth to make her happy and she will
do the same.

“ where are you going to get someone who

will help us with their DNA? ” my dad asks
as we leave their house.

“ we have to call victor and let him know

that those detectives were here and he
must go to their house and give us anything
that has their DNA. I’ll send one of the guys
to go collect it cause I have to go to Durban
to talk to the guy who will help us. ”

“ ok son. I just wonder why victor didn’t call

and let me know that his mother reported
sipho missing. ”

“ Or the guy could be lying dad. Do you

know he is luh's ex boyfriend? ” I laugj

“ he is? which one? ”

“ the skinny one ” we both laugh.

“ that boy has a death wish going to

mbuso’s house like that?. ”
“ I know. ” we arrive home

“ I’m going to call Alex in Newcastle and tell

him to watch out for those detectives in
case they show up there and start asking
questions. ”

“ ok dad I’m going to pack up then leave. ”

“ are you okay son? Ever since ngwende

told you all those things you’ve been
different. ”

“ it opened my eyes dad that I can’t live my

life like a bachelor forever. I have to have
my own family and seeing luh and mbuso
get married made me long for that kind of
love too.”
“ don’t put too much pressure on yourself
son. You will meet her ”

“ thanks dad let me go and pack so I can

leave. ” he pats my back then leaves. I go
to my bedroom and begging to pack. I take
the bags to my car

“ I have phoned victor and he says that

police man is lying. No one came to mask
him any questions and his family didn’t
report sipho missing. ”

“ then what are they playing at?. ” I ask hin

“ he said he will get to the bottom of it and
he will send someone here today to bring
things that will have their DNA. ”

“ ok dad. Let me go then. ”

“ drive safe son and call me when you get

home. ” my dad says.

“ I will. ” I hug him then get in the car and

drive off..

Since everything is almost back to normal I

have to focus on finishing building mbuso’s
company with bonga then focus on my
company. This year a lot has happened and
I’m glad that most of the things are over
and we can now all move and focus on our
lives but then those detectives just came
out of nowhere unless someone is feeding
them information.

I call zama and see how she’s doing cause

I’m still keeping taps on her. I know she
bought a house in Joburg and a car like I
told her. She still does as she’s told. It
rings. “ sawubona mapholoba ” ( hello) I
chuckle.

“ maShenge unjani sthandwa sam? ” she

laughs. ( how are you my love? )

“ ngiyaphila sthandwa sam wena? ” ( I’m

good my love and yourself? )

“ I’m good too. ” she sighs.

“ You don’t sound like you are fine? ”

“ just thinking a lot I guess. How are things

going? ”

“ things are going great. I bought a house

and a car and I think you already know that.
My family lives here with me I relocated
them ” I chuckle..

“ I’m happy to hear that. Is everything okay?

do you need anything else? ”

“ I’m graduating next year so don’t worry

about me. But I’m struggling to find a job
here.. It’s not as easy as I thought. ”
“ Zama I told you to let me know if you need
anything from me. Do you still have money?
” I don’t want her to struggle not when I can
help her.

“ I do have enough money to take care of

everyone sicelo stop worrying. I just need a
job cause you know I’m still going to study
part time. ”

“ give me a week and I’ll have something

for you. Other than that are you okay? ”

“ I am mapholoba and thank you very much

for everything. ”

“ I’m just looking out for my homegirl ” we

laugh.
“ Thanks homeboy. How is your sister doing
cause I saw her traditional wedding pictures
on her Instagram and she looked so
beautiful sicelo wow. ” I chuckle

“ it was a beautiful ceremony she’s great

and she’s waiting to give birth. ”

“ I will call her and send my congratulations.

”

“ she would really like that. ”

“ thanks for calling and checking out on me.

”
“ remember I’m just a phone call away. ”

“ I know that. I’ll wait for your call then ”

“ Ok maShenge. We’ll talk later then. ”

“ bye ” I hang up. She sounds happy and

good and that’s what I was hoping. I think
about ayanda and I know she’s getting the
help she needs from the hospital. I call one
of my guys.

“ boss? ”

“ did I not ask you to find tshepo for me? ”

“ you did boss but then Celeste told us to
drop it ”

“ do you work for me or for Celeste? ”

“ For you boss. ”

“ then find me that guy!. ” I hang up. Damn

Celeste.

In two and half hours I’m in Durban. I go

straight to my house cause I want to relax
and call the guy to prepare a meeting with
him. My guys let me in but they look
nervous.. I drive in and see many cars
parked inside my yard. What the hell is
going on here!.
I find space and park my car. I get out and
go to the front door open it and see many
different woman of all shapes sizes and
skin colour. I stand there and look at them
and they are having a party. In my house it
smells of alcohol and cigarette and I don’t
even smoke. I look around and I don’t see
Celeste. I am the only man here so this
must be a lesbian party or something. I
walk between bodies and find the sound
system.

I take the remote and switch it off and they

all make noise and some look at me like
who invited this man.

“ hey! Hey! Hey! I told you guys not touch

the sound system!. ” Celeste yells from
somewhere and sounds like she’s running
towards me and when she sees me she
stops and looks at me shocked. Even
though I’m taller than all these women here
I stand on top of my coffee table.

“ If you know that you don’t live here please

Get. The. Fuck. Out. Of. My. House. Now!!!!
” I shout and they look at me like this man is
crazy!.

“ boss? ” Celeste says. These women think

I’m playing. Ok!. I pull out my gun and cork
it and when they see it they all go out
running.

“ but boss?! ”

“ I’ll deal with you later!. When I come back

I better find my whole house clean and
spotless or else you will know me!. ” I get
off the table and leave the house. I get in
my car and I drive off until I find myself at
the beach. I park my car and walk to the
beach and sit down. I think I’ll stay until the
sunsets.

I close my eyes and listen to the waves and

feel the sea breeze on my skin. I’m glad I’m
wearing shorts cause it is hot. I take off my
running shoes and feel the sand between
my toes. I close my eyes and just feel the
breeze when I hear this soft voice that
keeps laughing. It stops and laughs again. I
open my eyes and look at the ocean and
there are people there playing but the voice
doesn’t come from there. It laughs again
and I wear my shoes
Sponsored
stand up and follow her laughter. I walk
about few metres when I see her cause
she’s laughing again. I sit down and watch
her as she plays with her kids. They are
playing soccer one is a girl and the other is
a boy and they look like they are 7 and 8
years old. They are all playing passing the
ball to each other laughing and they sound
so happy.

I find myself smiling looking at them and

wanting to join them. She’s wearing a long
floral dress that’s covering her body and it
fits her well. She’s a full figured woman and
has a beautiful waistline. She has
dreadlocks nice. They stop playing. She
opens her bag and takes out a towel and
she lays it down and they all sit on it with
her in the middle..

She looks for something and takes out a

chocolate and shares it between the three
of them and the kids look so happy. They
eat it while watching the sunset and I’m
watching them. She wraps her hands
around both of them and brings them closer
to her chest and they lay their heads in her
chest. This is beautiful.

I look at her face and see that she’s looking

at me fuck!. My hearts beats so fast I
quickly look away but something pulls me to
look at her again and I do. She is getting
up and packing her towel. I quickly get up
and go to them.

“ Mr you have been watching us from the

moment you got here and you are
beginning to scare me. ” she really sounds
scared. She does have a lovely voice.

“ I’m sorry I didn’t mean to scare you. ” she

ignores me and takes her kids hands and
they walk away. I follow them. “ can I talk to
you please?. ”
“ no!. Please leave us!. ”

“ let me take you back to your hotel cause it

is not safe right now. It’s about to be dark
and you don’t want to be alone with the kids
on the streets. ” I tell her. Well it is not
safe.

“ sir please you are scarring my children.

Lease us alone. ”

“ lady let me walk you to your hotel and I

promise after I see that you are all safe I
will leave you alone cause I won’t forgive
myself if anything happens to you. ”

“ why do you care? ”

“ I care because they need you and you
need them. ” she stops and looks at me.

“ ok but no funny business. ” I chuckle.

“ no funny business. Lead the way. ” I walk

beside the little girl. “ so can I ask what your
name is? ”

“ you don’t need my name you are just

walking us. ” ohk.

“ mama we didn’t greet uncle. ” the boy

says. I smile.

“ He’s not uncle he’s a stranger. ”

“ but you are talking to him and you always
tell us that we must greet adults. ”

“ and I taught you not to talk to strangers

too kagiso ” the boy looks at me then looks
down.

“ my name is kamohelo ” says the little girl

with her front two teeth missing. We stop
walking and I smile and crouch down to her
level.

“ hello kamohelo my name is uncle Sicelo

” she smiles she’s adorable.

“ mine is kagiso uncle ” they are cute.

“ how are you champ? ”

“ I’m good uncle. Mom tell him your name. ”

she smiles shaking her head and I laugh. I
get up and look at her.

“ well are you going to tell me your name ?

”
“ nope. ”

“ I guess I’ll call you mom then ” she laughs

I love her laugh.

“ please don’t!. ”

“ tell me then. ”
“ fine. I am lesego. ” I smile.

“ beautiful name. So our kids are all going

to have sotho names?. ” she walks on and
laughs. I join them and kamo holds my
hand. I look at her and she smiles. This is
big cause if kids don’t like you they don’t
and you will know cause they don’t pretend.
Her holding my hand means a lot to me.
Cause it shows trust and acceptance.

We walk until she stops outside this hotel

and it looks dodgy. I don’t like this place. “
we are booked here. So thank you for
walking us. ”

“ let me at least walk you to your door

cause this place looks dodgy. ”
“ I know. It’s nothing like how it was on their
website but I can’t do anything cause I have
already paid the money. ”

“ let’s go. ” We get inside and this place

looks like prostitutes live here and that
means drugs and different men come here.
We get in the elevator and there are people
inside. I pick up kamo and put kagiso in
front of me. It stops on the second floor and
the smell of cigarettes and alcohol is very
strong. She goes to her room unlocks the
door and we get in and it’s even worse. I
look at the door and it looks like it doesn’t
lock from the inside. I put kamo down and
go to the bathroom and it’s okay but not fit
for kids. I look at the windows and some are
broke covered with plastic. And the bed
looks old and worn out.
“ how many nights have you slept here. ”
she’s looking at her suitcase

“ we got here today. I think someone went

through our things. ”

“ did they take anything? ”

“ Uhmm no but I didn’t leave our things like

this. ” I switch the tv on and look for a
cartoon channel and okay it for the kids.

“ kids go and watch TV I want to talk to your

mom. ” they go and sit on the bed. I pull her
away from them. “ I know you have just met
me and you don’t trust me or know me but
lesego please!. You can’t sleep here with
the kids. The door doesn’t lock from the
inside look at the bathroom and someone
was here and went through your things.
This place is not safe for you and your
kids.”

“ I know that.. I don’t have enough money to

book is into another hotel. I asked for a
refund and they told me I can’t get it back
cause I had already paid and agreed to the
conditions. ” she sighs.

“ let me take you and the kids to my place.

You will be safe there I swear to you. I’m
not a criminal and I will not do anything
dodgy to you. I can give you my family’s
phone numbers and you can call them and
ask them anything you want. ”
“ honestly I was scared to sleep here with
my kids. ”

“ then let me take you to my place. You’ll

stay there and you’ll be safe. ”

“ your wife won’t mind? ”

“ I don’t have a wife or girlfriend. I have a

woman who works for me and she’s a
lesbian and I found her having a party in my
house without letting me know. I told her
when I come back I better find my house
clean. ”

“ does she live with you?. ”

“ hell no. ” she laughs.

“ I choose to trust you Sicelo don’t make me
regret it. ”

“ I promise you you won’t. ” She packs

some of the things that were on the bed
then I help her carry the bag. “

“ kids we are going to go with uncle Sicelo

to his place. We are not going to sleep
here. ”

“ but mom you said he’s a stranger? ”

“ he’s not a stranger anymore. He’s a good

uncle who’s helping us okay? ”
“ okay mommy ” they are so well
mannered.

“ is there a tv in your house uncle? ” I laugh

“ there is a big one.. You’ll watch all the

cartoons you want to watch ”

“ can I play with my ball outside the street?

”

“ you’ll play in the backyard. Let’s go guys. ”

l pick up kamo and take the bag. Lesego
takes kagiso’s hand and we leave locking
the door. She looks at me and I wink at her.
We checkout of the hotel and we walk to
my car for like 15 minutes.
“ wow mama such a big car!. A BMW mama
yoh ” kagiso says and we laugh. I put kamo
in the backseat and put the safety belt on
and do the same to kagiso. I out their bag in
the boot then open the door for lesego.

“ after you madam ”

“ thank you ” she gets in. I walk to the

drivers side get in then drive to my place.
Continual Of Chapter 44
SICELO.

All the cars are gone but Celeste’s car is

still here with a cleaning company car. She
hired someone to clean my house. I park in
the garage then look at kids and they have
surprised expression on their faces. They
have been quiet the whole way here and I
don’t know if it’s because they are scared
but what I noticed is they are well behaved
kids. She’s doing a great job raising them. I
look at lesego and I think she feels
uncomfortable cause she keeps gripping
her hand bag.

I place my hand on top of hers and she

looks at me. “ what’s wrong? ” I ask her?.
She shakes her head. “ this is my home
and you are welcomed here. You and the
kids are safe here and you will stay until
you go back home okay?. She nods. I get
out of the car open her door and she
blushes I smile. I unbuckle the kids and
close their doors. “ come guys. ” this time
it’s kagiso who takes my hand and man that
does something to my heart.

“ Are we not taking the bag with us? ” she

asks.

“ someone will get it. Come ” I open the

garage door connecting to the kitchen and
kamohelo gasps in shock. I chuckle. “ are
you guys hungry? ” of course they are why
am I asking?. They look at their mom first
then look at me when she nods.

“ we are uncle. ” they both say.

“ ok kids you need to go and bath first then

we will go out and have something to eat
what do you say? ” they look at each other
excited

“ yes please uncle. ” they both say

“ mom is that okay with you? ” I ask her

“ are you not tired? ” she asks them.

“ please mom. We slept the whole way
coming here. Can we also get some ice
cream please? ”

“ ok we will go out then. ” they do a high

five.

“ let me show you your rooms. ”

“ I would like for us to sleep in the same

room. If that’s okay. ” she’s scared and I
understand.

“ I understand. Come. ” we leave the

kitchen and Celeste is busy pointing and
talking nonstop to the cleaners and the
machine s making noise.
“ celeste.” She hears me cause she turns
and looks at me then looks at lesego and
the kids. She comes towards me.

“ why? are they still not done? ”

“ boss give us 20 minutes then they will be

done. ”

“ 10.minutes Celeste and bring me the bag

in the car. ”

“ hi my name is Celeste and I work for my

boss here. ”
“ she is lesego and these are her kids
kagiso and kamohelo. Go get the bags we
need to talk. ”

“ boss I’m sorry about the party. ” I look at

her and she shuts her mouth and leaves. I
walk on and they follow me. I take them to
the room opposite mine.

“ wow!. ” they all say. They like it that’s

better.

“ you like it? ”

“ it’s a beautiful bedroom. Thank you sicelo

for your kindness. My kids and I really
appreciate it. ” I nod.
“ the bathroom is that side and I think it has
everything you might need in there. ”
Celeste knocks and brings in the bag and
leaves. “ I’ll let you guys get on it. I’ll be in
the kitchen when you are done. ” she nods.
I leave and close the bedroom and go the
kitchen.

“ Celeste who do you work for? ” she looks

at me.

“ for you boss why? ”

“ does my staff work for you and take

orders from you? ”

“ no unless you told me to tell them

something. What’s going on boss? ”
“ who gave you permission to tell the guys
to stop looking for tshepo? ” she shakes her
head.

“ boss I thought that maybe since you and

ayanda are no longer together then there
was no need for us to keep looking for him.
”

“ do I pay you to make decisions for me or

pay you to do what I tell you?. ”

“ what you tell me boss. I’m sorry and we

will keep looking for him. ”

“ now tell me how the hell do you decide to

throw a party here in my private house
Celeste not even that one me and mbuso
bought?! ”

“ boss I was trying to impress this chick

boss. She has been giving me the run
around and I just wanted her to see that I
roll with the big dogs. ” I shake my head
laughing.

“ don’t ever do that again. Not in my house

or that house cause mbuso won’t be so
nice about it and understanding.”

“ yes boss. ”

“ we have a problem. The police are

investigating us about the disappearance of
buhle and her parents. ”
“ what? how do they think you are involved.
” I tell her everything that happened. “ there
is someone leaking information to the police
someone in our circle. ”

“ I think so too but who cause it has to be

someone who hears everything. ” I tell her

“ do you think your houses are bugged? ”

“ what? hell no!. Mbuso would know ” fuck

no.

“ a lot has been going sicelo with them

when was the last time he upgraded the
security system? Or all of you searched the
houses for any bugs since all of these
people have came into your lives? ”

“ what are you saying Celeste? ”

“ sicelo I have known you and we’ve

worked together for years. I trust you and
you trust me. Who is Preston and what is
his deal in this family?. None of you actually
know exactly where he comes from. Look at
how he blabbed and told everyone about
luh expecting twins. ”

“ you think he is the one leaking the

information? ” I’ll fucken kill him

“ look I’ll investigate him and before the

week ends I’ll have a file on him. ”
“ do that. I have to go and shower. I’m
taking them out for dinner ”

“ She’s beautiful. Who is she? ”

“ my future wife and mother to my kids. ” we

both laugh.

“ you think she’s the one? ”

“ I know she is. I found her. ” I leave her

looking at me shocked. I shower quickly
then change and go downstairs. I find them
in the living room waiting for me. “ have you
guys been waiting long? ”
“ just a few minutes. ” she says

“ have you seen Celeste? ”

“ no I haven’t ”

“ Celeste? ”

“ I’m right here why are you shouting? ” she

says coming from the kitchen.

“ you are coming with us. ”

“ boss please don’t make me babysit the

kids I’ll take any punishment but not
watching the kids. ”
“ you are. ” she mumbles something then
leaves. Lesego laughs.

“ why is she coming with us? ” she asks

“ so we can have some time to talk. You

look beautiful ” she blushes and looks at
me.

“ Thank you.”

“ are you guys ready to eat? ”

“ Yesss ” they say excitedly

“ where would you like to eat? ”

“ can we go to McDonald’s uncle? ”

“ but I want to go to Spur ” kamo says

“ but mom takes us to Spur kamo. Let’s go

to McDonald’s please? ” her brother begs
her a and I smile. It makes me think of luh
and how I never got to know her when she
was at that age. We were robbed of that.

“ hey are you okay? ” she asks me touching

my arm.

“ yeah I’m okay. They remind me of me and

my sister. ”
“ we should let mom decide kamo. ” kagiso
says. These kids are smart.

“ ok mom where are we eating? ” I ask her

she blushes.

“ let’s go to Spur tonight so you guys can

play. ”

“ ooh man ” kagiso says and I laugh. We

get in the car and drive off with Celeste and
two of the guys following us. I drive to the
one in Umhlanga and the kids are very
excited. “ mom may we go and play? ” they
ask her when we are shown to our table.
“ you may. But play where I can see you. ”
she says.

“ Thank you mommy ” they say and run to

the play area. We order and she orders for
them.

“ you don’t drink? ” she gets shy.

“ I do but maybe when we get home… . I

mean your house I’ll have a glass if you
have some wine there. ”

“ I do. When are you planning to go back

home? ”
“ I had booked until it was Sunday. I would
have checked out Sunday morning then
took a bus home with the kids. ”

“ how was the ride on the bus with the kids?

”

“ ugh it was stressful. I don’t want to do it

again but it was an experience. ” I an
imagine

“ who is lesego and where is she from? ”

they bring us drinks. We both chose sodas
and juice for the kids. I don’t want to drink
while I’m driving with the kids in the car.

“ I’m from free state in Bethlehem I live with

my parents Mr and Mrs Motaung have 4
other siblings. I’m the middle one. My
brother thuso is the eldest then it’s my
sister mapaseka me and my younger
itumeleng and the last born my brother
mpho. My brother and sister are married
then it’s us. I work at the kids school as a
clerk.”

“ you have a big family. ”

“ yeah we are. ” the kids come drink their

drinks then go and play with the other kids.

“ you are doing a great job with them. They

are so well mannered and respectful. You
are a great mom. ”

“ Thank you. It means a lot to hear that. We

are strangers and you took us to your
house why? ”
“ because I saw that place and it wasn’t
safe for you and the kids. I have a sister
lungi she’s pregnant and I think if maybe
she was in the same position you were in
that maybe someone would help her. I
know these days it’s not safe because
women get killed and raped and so that’s
the first thought that came into my mind and
when I saw that the door didn’t lock from
the inside. It scared me honestly. ” she
nods.

“ so you have only a sister? ”

“ it’s my dad me and my sister. We call my

aunt mah even though she’s like two years
older than me. ” she laughs. “ then my
uncles and their wives and my cousins. ”
“ your sister lives with your dad? ”

“ no she’s married and they are expecting

twins she is lungi Gumede now and I am
sicelo ngcobo. She lives with her husband
back at home in Ladysmith but they are
going to relocate to here. The are currently
building their house. ”

“ that’s really nice. So you are not in any

relationship and don’t have any kids? ”

“ I woke up single but that changed when I

saw you. I would like to be in a relationship
with you and not be single anymore. And
kids uhm I think I have two now. A boy and
a girl ” she laughs.
“ don’t say that. Don’t joke like that. ”

“I’m not joking lesego. ”

“ you pronounce my name so beautiful ”

“ I love the sound of my name on your lips.

It makes me want to taste them. ” heat
creeps up from her neck to her face. The
waitress comes and gives us our food. She
stands and goes to call the kids and I look
at her and she has a beautiful body and
behind. My kinda woman. Full figured. She
comes back and the kids sit.

“ let’s close our eyes. Kamo say grace. ” I

close my eyes.
“ thank you God for this food. For mom
taking us to Durban and we saw the sea
and for meeting uncle uhmmm…
uncle..uhmm thank you for uncle amen. ”
she says and we say amen. Being included
in her prayer makes my heart melts.

“ thank you angel of including me in your

prayer. ” she smiles.

“ you’re welcome uncle ” I chuckle.

“ Mom says we should always thank God

for what we are grateful for. ” says kagiso. (
She prays for you and is waiting for you to
find her. You will know when you meet her.)
Ngwende was talking about her. She’s
mine. My chosen one. I entwine my hand
with hers. She looks shocked but I know
she feels the connection I feel for her.

We all dig in and eat and they tell me about

their school and friends but mostly they tell
me how they hate waking up in winter to go
to school. They make me laugh and I can’t
remember the last time I had this much fun
and laughed this much and Celeste gives
me a thumbs up. She approves. They eat
their ice cream but they don’t finish it cause
they are getting sleepy.

“ let’s go before they sleep on the table. ”

she fishes for something in her bag and
takes out her purse. “ what are you doing? ”

“ paying our bill. ”

“ please put that purse inside. I already paid
the bill. ”

“ you did? ” she doesn’t believe me..

“ I did.” I pick kagiso up and the little champ

wraps his hands around my neck and
sleeps. My heart feels like it was empty
before but now those empty spaces are
being filled by them. I call Celeste over she
comes and I give her the bill. She laughs.
Lesego picks up kamo and we leave. I
place him nicely in the car and fasten the
seatbelt and she does the same.

I drive out slowly and switch the radio 2000

on. The traffic has cleared now and not as
hectic. Lesego seems to be deep in thought
and I don’t want to disturb her. I hope she
doesn’t think that I want to harm her and
the kids cause I would never. I take her
hand in mine and she squeezes it lightly. I
drive until I get home holding her hand.

We take the kids to her bedroom and I help

her dress the kids with pyjamas and we put
them to bed. She kisses them good night
then looks at me.

“ you are sleeping too? ”

“ no I would still like to have that glass of

wine.” I take her hand and we leave the
door slightly ajar and go to the lounge.

“ white or red wine? ”

“ can I have semi sweet white wine please?
” I go to the kitchen and come back with a
bottle of it. “ it was in the fridge so it’s
chilled. ” I pour her a glass and myself a
glass too.

“ thank you for tonight. The kids had a

wonderful time. ”

“ I did too. ” I sit down next to her. “ what

were you thinking about in the car? ”

“ About you showing up and saving the day.

I kept waiting for my gut to warm me and
tell me that maybe something is wrong but
it hasn’t. ”
“ I know you don’t trust me and it’s okay. I
hope I have shown you somehow that you
can trust me but I’ll keep showing you that.”

“ what do you mean you’ll keep showing

me? ”

“ dance with me? ”

“ what? ” I get up switch on the radio and

play radio 2000. I take her hand and pull
her close to me. She’s afraid to touch me.

“ I just want to dance with you. ” she relaxes

her body then snakes her one hand around
my waist. Her forehead is next to my
mouth. I kiss her forehead I entwine our
hands and place the other one on her back
and we dance to kci-jojo all my life. I sofly
sing the lyrics of the song to her until the
song ends.

“ thank you for the dance but I would like to

go to bed ” she yawns. I don’t want this
night to end.

“ you had a long day. I’m just glad that I

have two more days with you before you go
back home. Tomorrow is Friday so we will
take the kids to Ushaka marine. They are
going to love it. ”

“ they will. Thank you sicelo for everything. ”

“ I haven’t done anything yet but if you let

me I can do more. ”
“ sicelo… .. ”

“ shhhhh. Well talk tomorrow. ” I take her to

her bedroom and we stand outside the
door.

“ good night sicelo. ” she gets in and is

closing the door but I stop her.

“ lesego? ” she looks at me. “ I…good night.

” she closes the door. I look at the door
after she has closed it then leave. I am
going to make sure that she and the kids
have the best time here in Durban. I know
she’s the one for me and I’m not letting go
of her. I’m not going to spend another
minute without her in my life.

out of the car
Sponsored
I entwine our hands and place the other

“ you don’t drink? ” she gets shy.

“ I do but maybe when we get home… . I

mean your house I’ll have a glass if you
have some wine there. ”

“ I do. When are you planning to go back

home? ”

“ I had booked until it was Sunday. I would

have checked out Sunday morning then
took a bus home with the kids. ”

“ how was the ride on the bus with the kids?

”
“ ugh it was stressful. I don’t want to do it
again but it was an experience. ” I an
imagine

“ who is lesego and where is she from? ”

they bring us drinks. We both chose sodas
and juice for the kids. I don’t want to drink
while I’m driving with the kids in the car.

“ I’m from free state in Bethlehem I live with

my parents Mr and Mrs Motaung have 4
other siblings. I’m the middle one. My
brother thuso is the eldest then it’s my
sister mapaseka me and my younger
itumeleng and the last born my brother
mpho. My brother and sister are married
then it’s us. I work at the kids school as a
clerk.”

“ you have a big family. ”

“ yeah we are. ” the kids come drink their
drinks then go and play with the other kids.

“ you are doing a great job with them. They

are so well mannered and respectful. You
are a great mom. ”

“ Thank you. It means a lot to hear that. We

are strangers and you took us to your
house why? ”

“ because I saw that place and it wasn’t

safe for you and the kids. I have a sister
lungi she’s pregnant and I think if maybe
she was in the same position you were in
that maybe someone would help her. I
know these days it’s not safe because
women get killed and raped and so that’s
the first thought that came into my mind and
when I saw that the door didn’t lock from
the inside. It scared me honestly. ” she
nods.

“ so you have only a sister? ”

“ it’s my dad me and my sister. We call my

aunt mah even though she’s like two years
older than me. ” she laughs. “ then my
uncles and their wives and my cousins. ”

“ your sister lives with your dad? ”

“ no she’s married and they are expecting

twins she is lungi Gumede now and I am
sicelo ngcobo. She lives with her husband
back at home in Ladysmith but they are
going to relocate to here. The are currently
building their house. ”

“ that’s really nice. So you are not in any

relationship and don’t have any kids? ”

“ I woke up single but that changed when I

saw you. I would like to be in a relationship
with you and not be single anymore. And
kids uhm I think I have two now. A boy and
a girl ” she laughs.

“ don’t say that. Don’t joke like that. ”

“I’m not joking lesego. ”

“ you pronounce my name so beautiful ”

“ I love the sound of my name on your lips.
It makes me want to taste them. ” heat
creeps up from her neck to her face. The
waitress comes and gives us our food. She
stands and goes to call the kids and I look
at her and she has a beautiful body and
behind. My kinda woman. Full figured. She
comes back and the kids sit.

“ let’s close our eyes. Kamo say grace. ” I

close my eyes.

“ thank you God for this food. For mom

taking us to Durban and we saw the sea
and for meeting uncle uhmmm…
uncle..uhmm thank you for uncle amen. ”
she says and we say amen. Being included
in her prayer makes my heart melts.
“ thank you angel of including me in your
prayer. ” she smiles.

“ you’re welcome uncle ” I chuckle.

“ Mom says we should always thank God

for what we are grateful for. ” says kagiso. (
She prays for you and is waiting for you to
find her. You will know when you meet her.)
Ngwende was talking about her. She’s
mine. My chosen one. I entwine my hand
with hers. She looks shocked but I know
she feels the connection I feel for her.

We all dig in and eat and they tell me about

their school and friends but mostly they tell
me how they hate waking up in winter to go
to school. They make me laugh and I can’t
remember the last time I had this much fun
and laughed this much and Celeste gives
me a thumbs up. She approves. They eat
their ice cream but they don’t finish it cause
they are getting sleepy.

“ let’s go before they sleep on the table. ”

she fishes for something in her bag and
takes out her purse. “ what are you doing? ”

“ paying our bill. ”

“ please put that purse inside. I already paid

the bill. ”

“ you did? ” she doesn’t believe me..

“ I did.” I pick kagiso up and the little champ
wraps his hands around my neck and
sleeps. My heart feels like it was empty
before but now those empty spaces are
being filled by them. I call Celeste over she
comes and I give her the bill. She laughs.
Lesego picks up kamo and we leave. I
place him nicely in the car and fasten the
seatbelt and she does the same.

I drive out slowly and switch the radio 2000

on. The traffic has cleared now and not as
hectic. Lesego seems to be deep in thought
and I don’t want to disturb her. I hope she
doesn’t think that I want to harm her and
the kids cause I would never. I take her
hand in mine and she squeezes it lightly. I
drive until I get home holding her hand.

We take the kids to her bedroom and I help

her dress the kids with pyjamas and we put
them to bed. She kisses them good night
then looks at me.

“ you are sleeping too? ”

“ no I would still like to have that glass of

wine.” I take her hand and we leave the
door slightly ajar and go to the lounge.

“ white or red wine? ”

“ can I have semi sweet white wine please?

” I go to the kitchen and come back with a
bottle of it. “ it was in the fridge so it’s
chilled. ” I pour her a glass and myself a
glass too.
“ thank you for tonight. The kids had a
wonderful time. ”

“ I did too. ” I sit down next to her. “ what

were you thinking about in the car? ”

“ About you showing up and saving the day.

I kept waiting for my gut to warm me and
tell me that maybe something is wrong but
it hasn’t. ”

“ I know you don’t trust me and it’s okay. I

hope I have shown you somehow that you
can trust me but I’ll keep showing you that.”

“ what do you mean you’ll keep showing

me? ”
“ dance with me? ”

“ what? ” I get up switch on the radio and

play radio 2000. I take her hand and pull
her close to me. She’s afraid to touch me.

“ I just want to dance with you. ” she relaxes

her body then snakes her one hand around
my waist. Her forehead is next to my
mouth. I kiss her forehead I entwine our
hands and place the other one on her back
and we dance to kci-jojo all my life. I sofly
sing the lyrics of the song to her until the
song ends.

“ thank you for the dance but I would like to

go to bed ” she yawns. I don’t want this
night to end.
“ you had a long day. I’m just glad that I
have two more days with you before you go
back home. Tomorrow is Friday so we will
take the kids to Ushaka marine. They are
going to love it. ”

“ they will. Thank you sicelo for everything. ”

“ I haven’t done anything yet but if you let

me I can do more. ”

“ sicelo… .. ”

“ shhhhh. Well talk tomorrow. ” I take her to

her bedroom and we stand outside the
door.
“ good night sicelo. ” she gets in and is
closing the door but I stop her.

“ lesego? ” she looks at me. “ I…good night.

” she closes the door. I look at the door
after she has closed it then leave. I am
going to make sure that she and the kids
have the best time here in Durban. I know
she’s the one for me and I’m not letting go
of her. I’m not going to spend another
minute without her in my life.

CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 42.

MBUSO.

She is and will always be the most beautiful

woman I have ever laid eyes on. She looks
so beautiful like I’m seeing her for the very
first wife. I can’t believe she is all mine. She
gives sims her bouquet I take her hands in
mine and look at her. These stupid tears
won’t stop falling and I don’t care cause
they are tears of joy. I put my hand under
her veil wipe her tears off and she kisses
my palm.

“ I knew he was going to touch her ” my

mom says so loud we all laugh. She lifts her
hand too and wipes my tears too and I do
the same and kiss her soft palm. She
flashes me her beautiful smile and I can’t
help myself I grin and wink at her. I hear
people cooing that makes luh blush. I forget
sometimes that she can be shy.

“ We are all here today to celebrate the

relationship of Lungile Ngcobo and
Mbusowezwe Gumede to be witnesses and
supporters of the commitment they share
with one another. Together you are a group
of the most important people in their lives
and they have brought you here to
publically recognize that you have all
played some special part in the love they
share today.” The reverend says. I wonder
where they got him unless he is luh's aunt
reverend. but I think money also played a
very important role.

“ Marriage gives permanence and structure

to a couple’s love. Marriage is telling the
person you love that you are not going
anywhere. A good marriage must be built
on the foundation of trust and commitment
to each other. Lungi and mbuso do not go
to bed and sleep angry with one another.
Marriage is about standing together and
facing the world you forgive each other and
forget you do not hold grudges. Little things
matter in marriage like saying ““ I love you
hold hands how was your day and I miss
you” those titles are very important and do
not take them for granted or each other.” I
promise to do that and more. I will show her
the world and bring the world to her as long
as I live.

“ The road that has brought Lungi and

Mbuso here today has not been easy. It has
been filled with challenges that they we’re
not prepared for. But together they stood
strong and faced every challenge together
as one and used those experiences to
strengthen their love and not weaken it.”

“ Lungi and Mbuso. The vows you are

about to make are a way to share your love
trust and commitment to each other in your
own words. Those vows are a way of
openly declaring your promises to each
other as well as your family and friends who
are here to celebrate this beautiful union.”
He says. I wish the reverend would skip
everything and just go to the part of our
vows. But I don’t want that because
everything has to be perfect for her. Her
second wedding is going to be better and
more beautiful than this.

“ Before you declare your vows to one

another I want to hear you confirm that it is
indeed your intention to be married today.
Mbusowezwe Gumede do you come here
freely and without reservation to give
yourself to Lungile Ngcobo in marriage? If
so answer “I do.”

“ I do.” I tell the reverend. She smiles… my

heart.
“ Lungile Ngcobo do you come here freely
and without reservation to give yourself to
Mbusowezwe Gumede in marriage? If so
answer “ I do. ”

“ I do ” she says smiling. They clap hands.

“ Mbuso and Lungi having heard that it is

your intention to be married to each other I
now ask you to declare your marriage
vows. Please face each other and hold
hands. Mbuso you will start. ” Finally whew.
I take a deep breath because I feel so
emotional.

“ The whole night I was awake thinking

about my vows thinking what am I going to
say to you but then I realised that when it
comes to you I don’t have to think. What I
want to do with you or say to you comes
naturally. Luh you know me better than
anyone else in this world you know all my
flaws and my imperfections but somehow
you still manage to believe in me. You are
my one and only true love. My best friend
and soul mate. I still can’t believe that we
are standing here today getting married and
I’m the lucky man who gets to marry you. ”
Fuck I’m such a mess. I give her my
handkerchief cause she’s crying.

“ nothing will divide us because I know that

with your love I will always have strength.
Without you my life has no meaning I
promise that each kiss will be filled with
love than the last one. I vow to devote my
life to you and always be true. Let us build a
home a life and a family that we have
already started to build from our bonds of
true love. Take my heart love me forever
and I will never leave your side. You and I
are one. I never knew that life could be a
dream until I met you I will comfort you hold
you close prize you above all others and
remain faithful to you all the days of our
lives. I love you lungile . I am yours and you
can have it all.” The way she’s looking at
me as I say my vows to her? it feels like
she’s hearing me tell her that I love her for
the very first time. She’s a crying mess. I’m
sure she wiped off her make up with that
handkerchief I have her.

“ bride say your vows to your groom ” her

face is so red from crying I don’t know is
she’s going to be able to say all of them.

“ what you said baby was beautiful. I love

you I really do. Whenever I am with you I
get this feeling that I cannot describe and it
is something I would hate to lose. I vow to
always uplift you even when you make me
mad by drinking milk straight from the
carton. ” laughter is the only sound we can
hear. Even the birds chirp in laughing. “ I
vow to be always honest with you even
when it’s hard to hear I hate that you
always leave the toilet seat up. There is no
man in this world like you mbuso and
fortunately for me I have the best one.
Sorry dad and uncle victor. ” man I love her
vows. I chuckle.

“ all that I have all that I am I offer to you in

love and in joy. I admire how you act
towards your family friends and complete
strangers. You helped me to grow as a
woman Thank you for boosting myself
confidence for always reminding me that I
am a smart beautiful woman. You are my
true love
Sponsored
beautiful woman. You are my true love my
rock and my peace. I give you my heart and
my soul. I promise to cherish you love you
honour you and respect you. I promise to
also care about you protect you comfort you
and stay with you for eternity. I promise to
submit to you as my husband build a warm
home for you and our children. In good
times or bad times. I will ways be there as
your number one cheerleader even when
it’s hard.” She stops and takes a deep
breath. I brush her hands encouraging her
to continue.

“ Mbuso my body my soul and my heart are

all yours. Everything that I have and
everything that I am belonged to you long
before today. I promise you that I am yours
forever. I will follow you anywhere you go
and anywhere you lead me to. Hand in
hand. Heart in heart. Side by side. Let’s get
on with this so that we can grow old and
grey together!. ” she says the last part very
excited. She’s going to be a very hot
grandmother and by God’s grace I hope I
would still be hitting it hard. She blushes
like she can read my thoughts.

“ The bride and groom will now exchange

rings to symbolize their commitment. A ring
is customarily worn on the ring finger
because it is the only finger with the vein
running directly to the heart. Your wedding
ring are the outward and visible sign of the
inward and invisible bond which already
unites you two hearts in love. Where are
your rings groom?. ” I look at luh and she
looks embarrassed like really baby.

“ baby you didn’t think I would ask you to

marry me without actually giving you a ring
did you? ” I ask her chuckling.

“ I thought we would actually and I was

okay with that. ” you see why I love her?!.
“ boys the rings please. ” sims boys come
and give the reverend the rings. He takes
them and prays for them with both our
hands on the Bible and his hand on top of
ours.

“ Mbuso place the ring on Lungis’s finger

and repeat after me…” the reverend says.

“ I give you this ring. Wear it with love and

joy. As this ring has no end My love is also
forever.” I repeat after the reverend slipping
a diamond ring on her finger. She looks at
the ring then at me in awe. I will never get
tired of seeing her looking at me like that.

“ lungi place the ring on mbuso’s finger and

repeat after me… ”
“ I give you this ring. Wear it with love and
joy. As this ring has no end My love is also
forever.” She slips my ring that she made
for me on my finger. I love that ring and I
don’t think I want to change it.

“ May the wedding rings you exchanged

today remind you always that you are
surrounded by enduring love. I would like to
offer these good wishes to you on your
special day. May your life together be filled
with Prosperity and good health. May you
cherish the home and family you already
have created together may all the years to
come be filled with moments to celebrate
life and love. May your love be full of
excitement contentment affection respect
and devotion for one another. And so now
by the power vested in me Reverend S.
Mtshali it is my honour and delight to
declare you husband and wife. You may
kiss the bride. ” I look at our friends and
family and see how happy they are. I laugh
shaking my head. I stretch my fingers get
down and do five push ups and they laugh
at me. I’m getting ready to kiss my wife. My
beautiful wife. I get up lift up her long veil
and see my beautiful wife.

“ ngiyakuthanda mama bantwana bami. ” ( I

love you mother of my children.) I bring my
face down pull her close to me and kiss my
wife short and sweet. I don’t want to scar
my family plus my aunt would make sure I
never hear the end of it. I kiss her forehead
and hug her tight to me. She’s mine. She’s
mine.

“ ladies and gentlemen I am pleased to

present the newlyweds. Mr and Mrs Mbuso
Gumede! ” We face our families smiling as
they clap cheer and ululate happily for us.

“ She’s mine! She’s my wife finally!. We

finally did it ” I shout for the whole world to
hear.

“ my husband let’s go to the house. We

have to go and sign our marriage certificate
” she says raising her eyebrow. She has
just called me her husband and she’s
already telling me what to do. I love it!.

“ lead the way my wife. I can’t wait to say to

the guys ’ I’ll have to ask my wife my wife
says no my wife is’… ” she laughs a deep
belly laugh.
“ can you be serious ” she’s still laughing
hard. That’s what I want to see her happy
tears of joy. I’ll make sure I make her laugh
always. We go to the house sit down.

“ the terms are still as we discussed right?.

”

“ they are my wife ” she smiles I grin. I lied

and gave her 80 percent of everything I
own.

“ can you confirm that? ” she asks her

lawyer. He nods. She looks at me smiles
and signs our marriage certificate and I do
the same.

“ guys if you are done can you follow me? ”

Sims says after she signs as the witness
and bonga too. We get up and follow her.
We go to the lounge and our whole family is
there ok what is going on?.

“ get in the middle and kneel down. ” mom

says. There’s a cushion for luh to kneel on.
I help her down and kneel too. They form a
big circle around us. “ we are going to pray
for both of you to ask for blessings and
protection for your marriage. Please pray
for yourselves too. Let’s close our eyes. ” I
entwine both our hands together. Lay my
chin on her head as she rests her head on
my chest.

“ God I know that I am a sinner and a killer

and I don’t think I deserve to be under your
presence but I’m not here asking anything
for me but for my wife. Help me to love
cherish respect adore and protect her the
way that she deserves. I will lay down my
life for her. Please God don’t let me screw
up and hurt her but teach me to be a better
husband to her everyday. Please continue
to watch over her as you have done before.
Thank you for blessing me with her. Amen.
” I’m done. After a few minutes everyone
else is done too.

“ we are going to give you sometime alone.

Sims will come and get you guys go to luh’s
room. ” luh’s aunt says. We nod and go to
luh’s bedroom.

“ good afternoon my wife. ” she blushes.

“ my husband ” those words go straight to

my heart.
CHAPTER 45
CHAPTER 45.
SICELO.

I’m in my office going through some papers

when someone knocks on the door. “ come
in ” I tell them.

“ my boss how is it? ”

“ good Celeste you are early today? ”

“ I’m working boss ” she takes a seat and

she’s carrying a big envelope. Has she
already found out information about
Preston. I lean back on my seat and fold my
arms on my chest.
“ what is inside there? ”

“ Oh this? your dads man was just here

now. He said this is from your dad and you
would know what to do with it. ”

“ thanks Celeste. ” I take the envelope from

her and put it in my safe. “ have you found
tshepo and what about Preston? ” she
shakes her head.

“ I haven’t boss. There’s nothing about him

other than he owns his surgery and he’s a
doctor. ” she’s huffs frustrated. “ but I’m still
investigating. ”

“ I don’t think he’s originally from Ladysmith

maybe he’s from surrounding areas here in
KZN or Joburg but we need mbuso on this
to find information about him. “ he’s the only
who can find who really preston is.

“ you think that’s a good idea? ”

“ for luh's safety and all of us it is. Let’s go

and make them breakfast before they wake
up. ”

“ oh our new bride is awake and she’s

making us breakfast. She thought you
might still be sleeping and my guess is she
wanted to serve you breakfast in bed.” She
wiggles her eyebrows.

“ I’m not entertaining your nonsense

Celeste. ” the smell of bacon hits my nose
and my stomach grumbles. We get in the
kitchen and the first thing I see is her
beautiful behind and fuck me cause my dick
instantly gets hard. She’s busy stirring
something in the bowl and her ass keeps
jiggling. If I had to spank it it will jiggle and
wiggle nice on my hands and also when I
am fucking her from behind. It’s the T-shirt
she’s wearing that’s has a knot on the back
exposing her skin and those damn leggings
she’s wearing cause they fit her perfectly
that are making me hard.

I turn making sure Celeste doesn’t see me

and fix my hard on. I go around the kitchen
island stand behind her and cage her in.
She freezes and her breathing changes
because I can see the pulse on her neck
and the deep breaths she’s taking. I move
my head down to her ear “ good morning
baby ” I whisper in her ear and she
swallows air. I kiss her cheek and I think I
heard her moan. “ aren’t you going to say
good morning too? ” I look at her hands as
she grips the bowl tight.

“ good morning sicelo did you sleep well? ”

she says with her sweet honey dripping
voice. I really want to taste that honey
dripping out from her voice.

“ turn around and look at me.” I tell her.

“ I can’t cause you have caged me in. ”

“ am I making you feel uncomfortable? ” I

kiss her nape. She furiously shakes her
head. “ then turn and look at me lesego. ”
she turns and her ass makes contact with
my dick. I know she felt that. Her breasts
are touching my chest and she’s blushing
beautifully. “ you look so beautiful when you
blush. ”

“ Thank you ” she says biting her lip.

“ look at me. ” she lifts her eyes and they

land on my mouth first then eyes. She licks
her lips and bits her bottom lip. “ stop doing
that. Biting your lip. ”

“ why? ” she asks. I move my body closer to

her so she can now really feel what is
happening on my body. Her breath hitches
and her mouth opens and forms an O. Oh
fuck this!. I claim her mouth kiss her and
taste that honey that drips on her sweet lips
when she talks or laughs. She tastes really
good. She puts her hands on my T-shirt
and fists it pulling me to her. I go deep on
the kiss and she moans in my mouth fuck
me!. I lift her up and put her on the kitchen
counter not breaking the kiss and she
wraps her legs around my waist “ waiiiiiit
you guys!!!. I’m still here. You are not going
to have sex in front of me and in the kitchen
where the kids can walk in and catch you
two like this!. ” oh fucken hell!. I totally
forgot about Celeste being here in the
kitchen. We stop kissing and she’s
breathless. I can see her nipples through
her T-shirt. She is not wearing a bra. She
blushes furiously and hides her face on my
neck I chuckle and plant a kiss on her hair.
“ you look so beautiful when you blush. It
makes me wonder where else in your body
are you blushing. ” she laughs.

“ I’m wet sicelo ” she whispers then giggle.

Oh fuck why did she tell me that.
“ I am so hard right now cause I can smell
your arousal the feel of your body and the
sweet kisses you give me. I want to fuck
you so hard right now and lose myself in
you and make you feel like you took
ecstasy cause you will be so high and lost
in our love making. Will you let me touch
you and do things to you? ” she looks at me
and nods.

“ yes ” she says. I kiss her lightly.

“ go wipe that wetness between your legs

and while you’re doing that imagine it’s
mouth wiping all that sweet wetness. Do
you touch yourself when you are alone? ”
she blushes again.

“ I do but not always. ”

“ when you get in the bathroom you will
touch yourself and think that’s it’s me. You
will imagine all the things you think I will do
to you until you make yourself cum. Later
you are going to tell me what you thought
about when you were touching yourself and
it better be good cause that’s the last time
you are ever going to touch yourself while
I’m not there. Do you understand? ”

“ I do. ” she says whispering. “ but what

about you and your situation? ” she calls
my horny dick a situation?. I chuckle.

“ don’t worry about it. I’ll just look at Celeste

and my situation will resolve itself. ” she
laughs at my answer. “ go the feel of your
body and the sweet kisses you give me. I
want to fuck you so hard right now and lose
myself in you and make you feel like you
took ecstasy cause you will be so high and
lost in our love making. Will you let me
touch you and do things to you? ” she looks
at me and nods.

“ yes ” she says. I kiss her lightly.

“ go wipe that wetness between your legs

and while you’re doing that imagine it’s
mouth wiping all that sweet wetness. Do
you touch yourself when you are alone? ”
she blushes again.

“ I do but not always. ”

“ when you get in the bathroom you will

touch yourself and think that’s it’s me. You
will imagine all the things you think I will do
to you until you make yourself cum. Later
you are going to tell me what you thought
about when you were touching yourself and
it better be good cause that’s the last time
you are ever going to touch yourself while
I’m not there. Do you understand? ”

“ I do. ” she says whispering. “ but what

about you and your situation? ” she calls
my horny dick a situation?. I chuckle.

“ don’t worry about it. I’ll just look at Celeste

and my situation will resolve itself. ” she
laughs at my answer. “ go the kids will be
awake at any minute now. ” this time she
surprises me cause she takes my face
between her hands and kisses me hard
then she jumps off the counter and runs to
the bedroom.
“ I would tap that ass at any moment if she
was bating for my team. ”

“ get your own damn girl ” she laughs.

“ she is hot though. 2 kids and she looks

like that? Man I don’t blame you for wanting
to fuck that hot mama right here and now. ”
she sighs and I chuckle.

“ make some food and stop talking about

my woman. ” yeah she is. Celeste laughs.

“ I like her for you. From what I have seen

and observed she’s a great mother and you
Mr ngcobo are great uncle to them. Those
kids are really taken by you. You would
make a great dad sicelo. ” that means a lot.
“ thanks my right hand woman. ” we both
laugh.

“ good morning uncle. Good morning

aunty.” the kids say.

“ hey kids.” Celeste says drinking her

coffee. I turn around and look at them. They
have already bathed but they still look
sleepy or tired. I go to them and crouch
down to their level.

“ morning princess ” I hug her she giggles. “

morning champ ” I hug him too and we do a
fist bump. I look at their mother and wink at
her. She smiles. “ why did you wake up so
early? ” I ask them. I sit them on the chairs.
They are way too high and they are not
safe for the kids. I have to change them.

“ we were already awake when mom came

to the bedroom uncle. ” kagiso says.
Lesego continues to make breakfast.

“ ok. So what are we doing today? ” I ask

them.

“ Can we go to Shaka Marine and then

swim and then watch movies? ” they are
going to be tired by the time we watch
movies. Kagiso says and his sister nods.

“ mom what are we doing today? ” I ask

her.
“ Don’t you have to go to work? ”

“ no I don’t. Are you getting rid of me? ”

“ I’m not. I don’t want to keep you from

doing things and baby sit us. ” she plates
for all of us.

“ I want to be here with all of you if you

would have me lesego. ” she smiles and
nods. She sits and the kids say grace and
we eat. They tell us about their friends and
how much they are going to be jealous that
they were in Durban and staying at a big
house. But what I notice though is that they
don’t talk about their grandparents or
uncles and aunts. Even their cousins. Kids
love their grandparents and they would
never stop telling you about them and it
makes me wonder what their living situation
is like at home. I have to talk to lesego.

Her phone hasn’t ringed since she has

been here and she hasn’t phoned anyone
to let them know how she’s doing and the
kids and where she is. “ have your parents
called you and find out how you and the
kids are doing? ” she stops eating and the
kids get quiet too.

“ I talked to them in the morning and they

can’t wait for us to come back. ” I know
she’s lying. kagiso drops his fork and looks
at his mom angrily then he jumps off the
chair and runs. “ kagiso?! kagiso?! Kagiso?
! ” she calls after him we both run after him.

“ what’s going lesego? ” she shakes her

head. We open the door the bedroom door
and kagiso is sitting down crying. What is
going on?.

“ kagiso? ” she kneels next to him and

touches his shoulder but kagiso shakes off
her hand. He’s angry at her. I kneel next to
him too.

“ champ what’s wrong? ” he’s crying softly.

He lifts his head up. Then throws himself in
my arms crying. I hug him tight and comfort
him. “ it’s okay champ. Let it all out we are
right here for you. ” lesego has tears in her
eyes and she wipes them. His little cries are
breaking my heart. I look around and see
that kamo didn’t follow us and so maybe
kagiso will talk about what is bothering him.
“ do you want to talk about what is making
you cry? ” he shakes his head no. “ ok
champ. What can me and mom do to make
you feel better? ” he stops crying but
doesn’t let go of me. “ Mom wants to hold
you. Is that okay? ” he doesn’t say anything
for a while then he nods. She takes him
closes her eyes and tears fall and she
apologizes to him.

Is her family abusing her and the kids? Are

they treating them different? Or maybe my
question upset him?. God I have no idea
what the hell is going on. I get up and give
them some space to talk. I go to the kitchen
and see Celeste and kamo eating ice
cream in the living room and laughing. I
need a housekeeper. I sit down on the
couch and she comes and sits next to me.

“ hey princees are you okay?. ” she nods.

Celeste mouths what’s wrong and I shake
my head.
“ is my brother okay? ” she’s worried. I don’t
like it.

“ he is. He’s talking with mom. ” she nods

again “ can I have some ice cream too ”
she giggles. We sit down around the coffee
table and eat ice cream. Lesego and kagiso
come down and join us. He looks a little
better but I know he’s not okay. Lesego has
to tell me what’s going on.

“ are you guys ready to go to Shaka

marine? ” they nod. “ tell the guys to be
ready. You’re coming with too. ” I tell
Celeste.

“ like I was going to stay behind. ” she gets

up and leaves.
“ Do they have their swimming costumes? ”
she nods. “ go and get them so we can
leave and please look for my swimming
shorts in my closet and my wallet on the
dressing table. ” she gets up and we
continue to eat ice cream.

“ uncle? ” kagiso calls me.

“ yes champ? ”

“ I… .. I like it here. ” I smile.

“ I like it too since you are all here. ” I brush

his head.

“ I wish we can stay here kagiso ” Kamo

says.
“ well you can visit me as much as you
want. You your brother and mom can come
here and visit me anytime you miss me. ”

“ don’t worry uncle I will call you when I

miss you ” she smiles. I chuckle.

“ I will call you too princess. I promise. ” I

assure her.

“ but we don’t have cell phones and all our

friends at school have cell phones ” kagiso
says. They are too young to have cell
phones.

“ I’ll call you on moms phone okay?. ”

“ yes uncle. ” they both say. Lesego comes
back and is carrying a bag with her.

“ here’s your wallet and phone. We can go

if you guys are done eating ice cream. ”

“ kids go to the car.” They get up and run to

the car.

“ don’t run!. ” lesego says and they stop and

walk.

“ what’s going on lesego? why did kagiso

get angry when I mentioned your parents?
” she avoids my eyes and touches her
neck. She’s nervous.
“ nothing is going on he just misses them. ”

“ Don’t lie to me. Do they not like your kids?

”

“ of course they do. They are their

grandkids. ”

“ then what is going on. I know you are lying

about them calling you cause they didn’t.
No one in your family has called you and
find out how are you and the kids. ”

“ sicelo please leave it. ” I touch her face.

“ talk to me baby. I don’t like seeing the kids
upset and crying. What’s going on?. ”

“ I will tell you okay but for now can we go

and have fun and forget about what
happened?. I came here with the kids so
they can be happy have a great time and
forget about home for a while. Can you do
that for them? ” I wipe the tears that are
falling.

“ okay baby. Whenever you are ready to

talk you will tell me and I’ll listen. I just want
to make you happy lesego and love you
with your kids. I need you to give me a
chance so I can be the man you want and
need. ” she hugs me and cries. I hold her
tight. She kisses my lips then takes my
hand and we leave.

CONTINUAL OF CHAPTER 45.

SICELO.

“ she won’t let go of me? ” we both giggle

softly. Kamo has a death grip on me. She
won’t let me put her down.

“ let me help you. ” lesego takes her from

me and kamo easily let’s go and slips her
arms away from me. She looks dead tired.
Both of them are tired. Kagiso fell asleep
the moment he got in the car. I help her
take off kamo's shoes off then she lays her
down on the bed.

We stand and watch the both of them

sleeping and they look like they are at
peace. They really had a great time at the
marina and swimming obviously made them
tired. They enjoyed playing in the water. “
Let’s go before she wakes up. ” she takes
my hand and closes the door. She’s been
doing that a lot today and I’m not
complaining. I fucken love it.

We go downstairs sit on the longue. It’s just

the two of us now. I sent Celeste to go and
deliver the package to my guy who’s going
to help is get the mazibuko's DNA. “ can I
make you something to drink? ” she look
nervous right now.

“ I’m good. Talk to me lesego baby. What is

going on with you and the kids. ” she keeps
touching her neck and ear she’s nervous. “
hey. You can talk to me. I won’t judge you I
just want to know what is going so I can
help you. I don’t like seeing the kids upset
and you too. ”I brush her face my phone
rings before she can answer me. I want to
ignore it but I can’t. I take it out and see
Sims name popping up and she’s face
timing me.

This better be good because she has just

interrupted me “ Sims? ” she smiles. “ hey
bhuti sicelo how are you? ” I smile back. “
I’m fine Sims. What’s wrong? ”

She looks at me shocked like I have just

offended her. “ can’t I call my big brother
that I love so much. ” I laugh “ now I know
you definitely want something. Spit it out. ”
we both laugh. I look at lesego and she
looks uncomfortable. “ baby are you okay? ”
I ask her and she nods but I can see she’s
moving away from the phone so Sims won’t
see her. Which is fine by me cause I want
her to meet luh first.
“ who are you talking to? ” she asks me
leaning forward to see who I’m talking to. “
Sims I’m very busy so tell me what you
want. ” I tell her

She sighs disappointed and I laugh. I know

that if she sees lesego luh would know and
soon the whole family and I don’t think
she’s ready for that. I am ready for that
though but I don’t want to scare her away. “
well I am planning on throwing luh and
mbuso a baby shower but I want it to be
more like a photo shoot between them and
the family then we will all have lunch or
dinner. They have been through so much
and I just thank them and surprise them
with this. ”
“ that sounds great sims but where do I fit in
all of this cause you have Preston I think
and mah? ” she keeps quiet for a while and
doesn’t say anything. “ what’s wrong? ” she
sighs sadly

“ well you know ever since they both

accused me of being jealous of luh and
wanting to be like her our relationship has
not been the same. I want to do this for
them because they have done many thing
for me and my kids. I need you to take them
away while I prepare everything. ”

I didn’t know things were that bad between

them. “ where are you planning on having
that photoshoot? ”

“ at their house you can take them to visit

your dad or something while I plan
everything then I’ll call you when I’m done.
”

“ I can do that. When are you planning on

having the photoshoot? ” I hope she doesn’t
say tomorrow cause I’m not going to agree.

“ well I was thinking next weekend cause I

think they have to go to Pietermaritzburg.
Will you be available? ” I look at lesego and
she looks at me. “ yeah I’ll be available and
I will even bring someone. ” I say smiling
and lesego look at me shocked.

“ O wow I can’t wait to meet her. ” she says

excited.

“ do you need money? ” I ask her and she

laughs shaking her head furiously. “ oh no
mister. I’m good but if I need anything else I
will let you know. Sicelo can we keep this
between us? ”

“ don’t worry about it. Well talk then ” I

assure her.

“ bye pretty lady ” Sims says laughing and I

hang up and look at lesego. “ Come here
baby ” she blushes. I open my legs and she
gets between them. I pull her forward so
she can lay her head in my chest. I brush
her back and she sighs.

“ that’s a nice thing she wants to do. Who is

she? ” that’s a long story and I want to hear
her story now not tell her ours. “ I’ll tell you
about all of us but for now I want to hear
your story.” She takes a deep breath out
then draws something on my chest..
“ I met the father of my kids when I was 18
and we dated for a few months and I fell
pregnant with kagiso when I was 19. When
I told him that I was pregnant he ran and
left me like that. I was three months that
time. My parents were very mad at me.
They wanted me to have an abortion but I
refused. They kicked me out and I went to
live with my grandmother then a month later
my parents came and asked me who was
the father and I told them. My uncle and
mom’s sister took me to thuto's house to tell
them that he impregnated me my mom and
dad came with us but they stayed behind in
the car. When they saw that thuto’s family
is well of they started being nice to me. ”

I cannot believe her parents wanted her to

abort kagiso and then they kick her out?. “
we go inside his house and he denied that
he is the one who got me pregnant. He
called me a liar and I wanted to pin this
pregnancy on him cause I want to ruin his
future and I don’t know who got me
pregnant. They chased us out and I was
broken after that. The whole family turned
on me and called me a disappointment and
all sorts of names. I continued to stay with
my grandmother until I gave birth. No one
came to see me at the hospital or help me
with the baby’s clothes and I blamed myself
cause I put myself in that situation…. . ” she
sniffs and my hear breaks. I hold her close
to me.

“ my grandmother came and took me home.

She helped me but she was also afraid
cause my mom threatened to cut her off if
she spends her money on me but she
would help me with most things. They never
came to see the baby all of them and I
knew I had my grandmother only to help
me. I went and applied for a child support
grant and would do piece jobs so I can be
able to take care of my son. Kagiso was 9
months if I’m not mistaken when my family
showed up. I was washing our clothes and
they walked in happy and pretended like
everything was fine between us… ”

“ I made them tea my dad told me to sit

down cause he has great news for me.
Apparently thuto came with his family to
pay damages and to claim kagiso as his.
They accepted the money and now they
were here to take me back home because
tomorrow the Maboa family will come to see
kagiso. I was so hurt and felt like my family
betrayed me because this boy denied the
pregnancy and called me a whore in front of
everyone but they forgot about that cause
they saw money. I didn’t want to go but my
grandmother forced me to go with them. ”
Just like that the mother fucker was
forgiven even though he tarnished her
name. They don’t come and see her and
child and find out if they are still alive and
well?. That is making me feel real mad. “ I
knew I was going to regret leaving with
them but I listened to my grandmother
packed our clothes and left. We got home
and we pretended to be this happy family
they even held kagiso and played with him.
Next day his family came and had brought
kagiso clothes and everything. Thuto was
even there too. I didn’t want to be there
cause everything just felt wrong. I wanted
my grandmother. My mother asked me to
go buy something in the shops and it was
late so thuto offered to take me there with
his car. We left and on our way he drove
past his house cause he said he forgot
other clothes he had brought for kagiso and
asked me to help him carry it and stupid me
didn’t see anything wrong with that. How
could I cause when we talked about kagiso
he was nice. I was hurt that he couldn’t
even say I’m sorry for lying and accusing
you of wanting to trap me with the
pregnancy. We walked in and he went to
his bedroom and came with kagiso's other
clothes. I was glad that I wasn’t going to be
here for long so I helped him carry the
clothes when I felt him grabbing my hair
from behind and throwing me on the couch.
I fought him of but he was stronger than
me….” Fuck no! No! No! No!

“ he pinned me down…. ..raised my skirt up

tore my under and then he he…..……forced
himself in me. I haven’t been with a man
since I was pregnant and it hurt. I was so in
shock and I couldn’t do anything. My body
went into shock. I couldn’t move or speak.
He dragged me to his bedroom and forced
me to take off my clothes and shower. I did
then then I put my clothes on and we left. I
forgot about what my mom asked me to
buy. He told me if I told anyone that he
would deny it and tell them that I offered
myself because I was horny and wanted to
fix things between us and he agreed cause
he wants to make the mother of his child
happy. I got out of the car and went in the
house and when my mom saw that I didn’t
have what she sent me to buy she was
angry…. ”

Her cries break my heart and I want to kill

that son of a bitch. “ she smelled me and
felt I was smelling of water she slapped me
and accused me of opening my legs for
thato because that’s what I’m good at. I
tried to tell her what happened but she
wouldn’t listen to me. Him and his family left
a little later and my mom told my dad that I
slept with thato and he beat me up. The
next day I ran away with kagiso and went to
my grandma house and they came to fetch
me back because thuto came and told them
that we had sex and now I’m accusing him
of raping me. They believed him and not
me. I told my dad every detail that
happened but my mom said it happens to
most of us and I must deal with it. How can
I accuse the father of my child of raping me.
They took me home and when I discovered
that I was pregnant again with his child I
lost it sicelo. I didn’t know how I was going
to deal with the pregnancy. Not only did he
rape me but he impregnated me too. I didn’t
want to have an abortion cause I was
scared. It scared me so I hid the pregnancy
until I couldn’t when I was five months
pregnant. I went and told my grandmother
and she told them. They once again tuned
on me and started being abusive with
words and hitting me. My grandmother died
and it’s was hard for me cause I knew that I
was really alone this time. They went to tell
his family and he agreed and they also
found out that he was getting married. My
dad was so mad when he heard that cause
he threw me out of the house and they built
a shack for me to live in. I gave birth and
they did the same thing to kamo that they
did to kagiso. No one came and I was
alone. I struggled until I got a job as a
cleaner at the school I worked until they
offered me a job as a clerk at the school. I
saved money and built myself a one room
bedroom with a kitchen that I live in with my
kids. I pay rent for electricity and water or
else if I don’t pay they switch it off from me.
I’m expected to babysit their kids wash their
laundry and contribute to the house but my
kids are not allowed inside the house or
even eat there. When thuto sees me and
the kids he passes them like he doesn’t
know them. ”

I have never felt so many different emotions

all at once. She has been through a lot and
I’m proud of her. I am so mad because of
the things she experienced and I want to
shield her from it and make everything
better for her. He raped her then lied to her
family!. Hmm This boy!. “ kagiso is aware
and knows what is going. That’s why he got
upset when I asked about your parents?. ”

She wipes her tears. “ he knows and sees

how everyone treats them us different from
everyone else. I used to hide that from
them and always come up with excuses but
as he grows up he watches and listens. ”

“ Baby? ” she cocks her head up and looks

at me. I kiss both her teary eyelids then
wine her tears with my thumbs. “ let me in
your heart and let me take care of you and
your kids. Let me love you and them. Let
me be your man husband and let me be the
father to them. I want them to know and
experience the love that was taken from
them the love they never got to feel. I want
to be a father to them. I want them to call
me dad baba or papa. I want you to lean on
me and know that I will take care of your
our kids. Let me fix this and love you in
every way possible. I knew you were mine
the moment I heard your laughter. I called
on to me and I knew that I have finally
found my chosen one. I can promise you
the moon and the stairs and everything but
what I want to promise you now is that I will
love you cherish you adore you respect
you. Put your needs and the kids needs first
above my own. I want to have a home with
you have more kids with you and love you
like crazy. I need you in my life lesego and I
need you to be part of my family. Will you
have me Lesego Motaung? ”

She buries her head on my neck and sobs.

My eyes well with tears and one tear falls. I
quickly wipe it and kiss her forehead. I hold
her tight to me and comfort her as she
cries. “ I’m scared sicelo I really am. ” she
says sobbing. “ I know you are scared baby
but trust me and let me in. I promise you
you won’t be sorry. ” That boy is going pay.
All of them.

“ promise me that you will never

discriminate my kids and treat them
differently when we have kids? ” I smile.

“ our kids. They are our kids. I love them

like they are my own and that will never
change. ”

“ what about your family? What are they

going to say about me having tow kids?
What if they say I must leave them behind?
”
She’s scared and I understand because I
would have the same concerns she does. “
they are going to love you and I would
never let you leave our kids behind that
toxic environment even if it wasn’t I still
would never allow you or allow anyone else
to expect that of you. My dad is going love
them and spoil them like crazy and my aunt
she’s going to love them too but luh she’s
crazy about kids. She loves them and they
love her she’s going to be the best aunty. ” I
smile thinking about all of them meeting her
and the kids.

“ I hear you but don’t make me choose

between you and our kids cause I would
never expect that from you too. ”
“ I hear you baby and when we fight don’t
say my kids cause that will just piss me off.
” she smiles. “ that’s more like it. ” I peck
her cheek. “ I need something from you. ”

“ what is it? ”

“ I need you to let me deal with thuto. My

own way without involving the police. ” she
looks uncertain.

“ what does that mean? ”

“ I won’t kill him if you are worried about

that. ”
“ I’m not worried about him. He’s better off
dead than alive in my eyes. But I don’t want
your hands to be filled with his blood. ”

“ tell me what I want to hear lesego. ” she

giggles.

“ What? ” I tickle her and she laughs.

“ I am yours Sicelo Ngcobo. All of me. Me

and the kids are all yours now. You can
have us. I am your woman. ” she blushes.

“ let’s seal it with a kiss ” I don’t wait for her

to answer cause I claim her mouth and
devour her lips. Someone or people are
going to die.
CHAPTER 46

SICELO.

“ baby? ” we are still on the couch cuddling.

I didn’t know cuddling could be this much
fun and I think I’m going to love doing that
and a lot of things with her. “ yes baby? ”
she giggles I kiss peck her cheek.
“ can you share the bed with me? I just
want to feel you know my arms and I
promise you we will not do anything until
the both of us are ready ” I don’t know what
I’m asking her because I know for sure I’m
going to have a boner the whole night. She
looks at me unsure. “ I’m asking you to trust
me and know that I won’t hurt you. I want
you I feel you on my arms and wake up
next to you that’s all I want baby. ”

She gets up and I think she’s going to

refuse me but she takes my hand again and
I get up and we go to my bedroom. We get
there and she moves the pillows off the bed
and places them neatly and opens the
duvet. “ can I use your bathroom and
shower? ” her cheeks get pink and I smile.
“ you can baby. ” I tell her. She turns to
leave but I stop her. „ where are you going?
”

“ to get my pyjamas and toiletry bag. ”.

“ ok I’m going to use the shower in the other

guest bedroom. Feel free to take your time.
” she nods and leaves. I take my things and
go to the other bedroom and take a cold
shower. I shower quickly cause I’m trying to
not let images of lesego showering in my
bedroom fill my mind. I pass by the kids
bedroom when I’m done and they are still
sleeping. I switch the lights to a little dim but
still light incase the kids wake up and half
close the door. I open my bedroom door
and not close it. I go to the closest throw
the towel in the laundry basket and wear a
tank top and basketball shorts. It’s been
years since I have slept wearing clothes
and I hope they won’t choke me at night.

The water is still running in the shower

she’s not done yet. I get in bed and wait for
her. My phone keeps beeping and I know
someone sent a text message. I ignore it
cause I know if it’s important the person
would be calling. I think about everything
she has said and I am pissed. I have to talk
to the guys cause I am going to need their
help. I am not going to kill him but I want
him his family and lesego's family to see
how happy I am going to make her and our
kids. I have to tell dad about her and the
plans I want to do. If it’s money I will have
to cough out then that’s nothing cause I’m
going to make sure that they are all mine
and that thuto guy won’t one day show up
and claim them as his.
She comes out wearing a tiny pyjama set
and closes the bathroom door. How the hell
am I going to ignore all that skin and curves
and those nipples pointing at me?. Damn!. I
close my eyes and take a deep breath. She
goes to close the bedroom door. “ baby
don’t close the bedroom door. ” she looks at
me confused. “ we have kids in the house
and they are not yet used to all the rooms.
They might wake up at night and not find
you in bed and panic. We have kids in the
house now and so our bedroom door is
always going to be open.” I explain to her
and I don’t know if she understands.

“ but what about when we… .. ” she asks

getting in bed and she sighs. I chuckle and
pull her close to me. “ what about what
baby? ” I want her to say it. “ what about
when we are having sex and they hear us
or worse catch us. ”
“ well I guess we would have to be not so
loud and have as much sex as possible
when they are at school. Are you loud
baby? ” her cheeks get pink with blushes. “
I don’t know… . I don’t remember. ” she
says.

“ don’t worry we will find out soon and if you

are then I will have to gag you. ” her breath
hitches then she covers herself with the
duvet laughing. I put my hands under the
duvet and tickle her and she laughs so
loud. “ shhh you’ll wake the kids up!. ” I
continue to tickle her “ stop… I mean going
to pee on myself sicelo I’m very ticklish!. ”
she says laughing and kicking the duvet
and exposing her legs. I stop and cover us
again. She catches her breath then looks at
me.
“ you know the only time I laugh like this is
when we are alone in our room and they
telling me funny stories from school or
maybe we are just watching TV. Thank you
for this sicelo for everything.” I pull her to
me. “ I haven’t even started doing anything
for you and the kids but you will see and
experience it. I take care of everyone who
is close to my heart and you and the kids
are my number now. ” she draws patterns
on my chest.

“ you know I used to pray and ask God to

ask my soulmate to find me and save me
from the misery I’m living under with my
kids. I would pray everyday and then I
began to save some money cause I wanted
to take my kids to Durban cause the last
time I went was when I was their age and I
never went again. My family come here
very year and ever since I fell pregnant I
was left behind. If I knew sooner that
coming here I was going to meet the love of
my life then I would have came years ago. ”
she says.

“ I think this was the right time for us to

meet cause we both need each other. I
have not been the best partner to the
people I was dating but I have grown from
my mistakes and learned a lot from them.
Do I have regrets on how I treated them yes
but there’s nothing I can do about it now.
What I can do though is be your best lover
partner best friend husband and a damn
great dad to our kids like how my dad is. My
dad has taught me many things and if I can
be half the man and father he is to us then I
would know that I’m doing a great job cause
that man is the world’s greatest and he is
going to embrace kagiso and kamo and
welcome them with open arms and love. ”
she entwines our hands.

“ tell me about you sicelo. Who are you?. ” I

smile and look at her. “ you should have
asked me that before you agreed to be my
woman. ” she pinches my chest laughing. “
baby stop playing ” I chuckle. I tell her
everything about me growing up with my
parents luh and how we got separated then
finding all of each other again and how. My
business and what I do I tell her about the
guys frank mah Sims then zinhle and
ayanda
Sponsored
Sims then zinhle and ayanda but I don’t tell
her about how the mazibuko’s including
buhle being dead and I just tell her they
went missing and I don’t say who killed
thami and oh Preston also how can I forget.
She knows everything about me but not the
illegal stuff that we do.
When I’m done she is speechless. “ wow all
of you guys have been through a lot. The
things you went through and finding each
other again is beautiful and rare. I think I’m
going to love being part of your family. I just
wish my parents were like that too. All of us
too be tight and have each other’s backs
but that’s wishful thinking because they
already have that with each other just not
with me. ” I hate that they treated her
different. “ in our family we have lots of love
to give baby. Including luh’s in laws will
welcome you and love you too. We will
always have your back and no matter what.
” she squeezes my hand.

“ Thank you for telling me about everyone. I

feel like I already know them. ” I can’t wait
for them to meet her and know her too. “
You will baby. ” I yawn fuck I’m tired. She
laughs. “ let’s sleep before you swallow my
head ” she says and my mind goes there
and blood rushes to my dick. “ see what
you do to me talking about swallowing
heads. ” she laughs I get up turn the lights
to dim pick up a pillow and get in bed and
put it between us so she won’t feel my hard
on. “ good night baby kascelo. ” she yaws
too. “ good night mapholoba. ” I kiss her
head and spoon her.

I hear soft giggles and laughs. Soft little

hands are brushing my beard. I smile inside
cause I know those small hands belongs to
those two making me feel old. I open my
mouth wide and yawn load then chew on
air. They laugh I want to laugh too but I
don’t want t hem to know that I’m awake. “
mama is going shout at us for waking uncle
” kamo says giggling. “ no she won’t. She’s
making breakfast and she thinks we are
brushing out teeth. ” kagiso says.
“ do you think uncle is going to lose his
teeth like me? ” I almost laugh. I peek at
them and see them on both my sides. They
are on my chest looking at each other
talking about me like I’m not here. “ no
kamo. He’s a grown up and grown ups
have teeth. ” he shakes his head. “ but that
grandpa from school has no teeth like me?
” kagiso shakes his head and palms his
cheek. “ he is old and old people don’t have
real teeth. They wear fake teeth. ” kamo
gasps in shock them they get quiet for a
while. “ kagiso? ”

“ hmm? ”

“ do you think uncle us going to be our dad

and he will drive us to school and pick us
like the other kids who have dads? ” that
breaks my heart. I want to hear what
kagiso's response is going to be. “I don’t
know kamo. I wish he was our dad. ”

“ do you know our dad? ” she asks him and

I wonder if lesego has ever had this talk
with kids but I guess not cause if she has
then they wouldn’t be talking about it. “ I
don’t know him. ” they keep quiet then I
open my eyes and yawn loud again. I
startle them then they laugh. “ good
morning kids? ”

“ good morning uncle ” they both say

singing. I smile. “ did you have a good
sleep? ”

“we did uncle. Mama is making breakfast

for us. ”
“ yummy and I am so hungry. I feel like
eating someone.” They both scream
laughing.” what were you two doing playing
with my beard with your little hands hmmm?
I’m going to tickle you until you have hair on
your face too ” I grab both of them and
tickle them and they laugh. I let them go
and they jump off the bed and run out. I get
up and follow them and they are running to
their mother laughing. I hear her
reprimanding them to stop running in the
house the stairs and in the kitchen. She is
right cause they might get burnt with
something. I round the kitchen island and
see that she’s wearing my T-shirt and her
pyjama bottoms. She looks so freaking
sexy. “ good morning mommy ” she laughs.
I kiss her on the lips before she even greets
back. The kids giggle looking at us and their
mom blushes. “ really? In front of the kids? ”
I peck her cheek and they all giggle. “ they
have to get used to us kissing and showing
physical contact like hugs and kisses so it
will not be awkward for all of us when they
see us doing that. ” she nods. “ kids let’s go
to the living room and have a meeting.
Mommy switch the stove off. ” she does.

We all go to the living room and we help the

kids sit down. “ so once a week we are
going to have a meeting and everyone will
tell us how we spent our week at school
and at work right guys?. ” they nod. “ the
first rule of every morning is we kiss
mommy good morning hug her and ask
how she slept we greet each other and hug
everyday in the morning. ”

“ yes uncle ” they say. “ ok kids you are

going to do one good thing every day and
when we have a meeting on Sunday you
will tell us what you did. You can do
anything from helping mommy with the
chores brushing school shoes or making
sure that your rooms are clean and your
toys are where they stay. When you do that
mommy and daddy will pay you. You will
earn money doing your chores on top of
your pocket money. ” fuck that just slipped
out but it felt right and I didn’t plan on
saying it. I hope lesego is not mad at me
cause I didn’t talk to her about this. She
looks at me shocked and tears well in her
eyes. I take her hand I’m relieved when she
doesn’t snatch it back.

“ mommy are you sad? ” kagiso asks her

and she shakes her head no and wipes her
tears. “ kids can you go and brush your
teeth. Uncle wants to talk to mommy?.”
They stand up and begin to run “ no
running. ” I tell them. They walk.
“ I’m sorry lesego. That just slipped out and
I didn’t plan on saying that but it just
happened and I… .. ” she silences me by
putting her hand on my mouth.

“ sicelo you talk a lot about the future and

I’m scared that this is too good to be true.
Things like this don’t happen in my life and
I’m scared that once we leave here… .
You… you will forget about us and that will
not only break me but it will very much hurt
my kids. ” I sigh frustrated.

I take her hands in mine and make her look

at me. “ woman I love you and I want you
and our kids in my life everyday of my life.
They are now my kids too lesego. I love
them like I love you. I mean everything I am
saying to you. The promises and everything
I mean them. I am not trying to charm you
just to get something from you. I know life
has been cruel and unkind to all of you but
that stopped the moment you accepted me
in your lives. I want them to call me dad
because I am a father to them now. I don’t
want my kids to call me uncle. I am not
going to be a step father to them I am their
father. My life has been filled with so much
happiness ever since I met you girl I’m even
waking up late and I don’t do that. I’m
asking you to put faith and trust in our love
baby. I love you lesego please believe
me.” She sobs and I hold her.

“ I believe you. I’m not mad about you

wanting them to call you dad. I think it’s
beautiful. I’m giving you my heart sicelo.
Please don’t break it. ” I’m relieved. “ I’ll g
crazy if you leave me ” she giggles. She
doesn’t know that I’ll literally go crazy.
“ we need to talk to the kids about their
biological father. They were in our bedroom
and they thought that I was sleeping and
they talked about they don’t know their dad
and they are curious because they see
other kids with their father’s but theirs is not
in their lives.” She shakes her head. “ what
do I say sicelo? the both of them can never
know how kamo was conceived and I don’t
want him in their lives. I don’t!. ”

“ hey it’s okay. We will figure it out baby I

promise. ” she nods. “ wipe those tears on
your beautiful face and let’s eat breakfast
as a family. We will have a braai just the
four of us and spend time together as a
family before I drive you back tomorrow. ”
she nods and get up. The kids come and I
help her plate food. “ boy boy go and get
my phone in our bedroom and don’t run. “
yes dad ” he says. I chuckle. This is love
and pure joy. I mouth thank you to lesego.
Continual Of Chapter 46

SICELO.

The kids have been quiet since they woke

up and they are not playing or saying
anything. I tried to talk to them and they are
just giving me yes and no answers. They
must really hate where they live. Even their
mother is quiet and she keeps touching her
neck. I really don’t like how they are all
feeling. If it was up to me they wouldn’t be
going back home at all. But I have to do
things properly and it’s only two months left
before the school closes and the holidays
begin.
I’m driving them back home with Celeste
and the guys following me behind. She
insisted that she comes. Radio 2000 fills
the car with their soothing sounds. I look
back and the kids are sleeping. I entwine
our hands together and she sighs. “ you
could have told me not to take you back
home baby. ” she looks at me then looks
ahead.

“ we have to go back sicelo. The kids still

have school and I have a job waiting for me
too. ” she sounds depressed.

“ I know baby but look on the bright side. In

two months the school closes for the
holidays and that means you and the kids
can come and spend all the holidays with
me in Durban. ”
“ I know baby. I just wish things were
different you know. ” she says.

“ different how lesego? ” she looks at me.

“ I wish we didn’t have to go back. Our kids

have never been this happy and now you
see how depressed they are because we
are going back there. It doesn’t even feel
like home anymore. I’m just worried that
when we get there things might be worse
for us. ”

“ did you tell them where you are going? ”

she shakes her head.

“ I told my youngest sister but I doubt she

told them. I didn’t tell them because I was
scared that they would demand the money I
was saving for the trip and we wouldn’t
have met you and… . ”

“ hey we would have met somehow cause I

believe that my ancestors would have made
a plan for me to meet their daughter in-law.
I’m not going anywhere lesego and your
family will know that.” I tell her firmly. We
are in Pietermaritzburg now and I think of
stopping but I don’t want to wake the kids. I
want us to drive straight to Bethlehem and
get there.

“ what were you busy with in the morning in

your office cause you talked a lot on the
phone?. ” so she noticed.

“ I was dealing with work stuff and I talked

to mbuso. I wanted to know how everything
is going with luh and her pregnancy cause
she is still on bed rest. Mbuso is frustrated
cause my sister decided to renovate their
bedroom and the kitchen. Mbuso hates it
when there are strangers in his house.” I
chuckle

“ he sounds like he values their privacy.

Actually I think all of you do from what I
have gathered. ”

“ we do baby. Love honesty trust and

loyalty. That’s all we want and what I need
from you. ” I hope she gets what I’m trying
to say.

“ don’t worry baby. I will never share your

secrets or family’s secrets and betray all of
you. I am a bad liar sicelo so if it does
happen that you do something illegal
please don’t tell me in case the police come
to ask me questions. I have the worst poker
face. ” wow she has just surprised me with
this.

“ what gives you the idea that maybe one

day the police might come and knock at our
door? ” she gives me the really look?

“ please sicelo. You have security detail

always following us wherever we go like
even now. I know Celeste is like your body
guard or something and that means there
are things she’s going to do for you. You
are rich sicelo and rich people always have
enemies. ” I squeeze her hand.

“ nothing will ever happen to you and the

kids. Even when I’m not there just know
that there are people who will always be
watching over you and you might not see
them but they will be there.”

“ you can trust me sicelo. I’ve got you baby.

Whatever you need from me I’ll be right
here. ”

“ You don’t know how happy it makes me

feel to hear you say that. ” I kiss her hand. “
are the kids not hungry or want to go to the
toilet?. ”

“ they will wake up and tell us don’t worry

about them. They slept the whole way too
when we went to Durban. ” she says. We
drive and the more we get closer the tense
lesego gets. We are finally in Bethlehem
almost five hours later. This place is far but
for them I will drive down.
“ we are finally here. Direct me to your
place is it in the location? ” she nods. “
lesego are you okay? ” she nods again. I
know she’s not. “ tell me that you don’t want
to go back to your house and I won’t take
you there. ”

“ I have to. Can you drop us like around the

corner. I don’t want them to see us getting
off in this fancy car of yours. ”

“ Why? ” I wasn’t although I want to but dad

would kill me for disrespecting another
man’s house again.

“ please baby. It will just cause problems

for me. ” she begs me. I drive around as
she directs me to a garage and park there.
Celeste’s car park too and wait?. Is that
mbuso's car?. It must be frank cause he
sometimes drives it. I look at lesego “ I’m
going to ask Celeste to come in the car and
she’s going to sit in the front and you’ll sit
with the kids in the back. We are going to
drop you off and make them think that we
gave you ride back and Celeste is your
friend. ” she keeps quiet.

“ And what will she be to you? ” I laugh. “

are you feeling jealous baby? you do
remember that Celeste is a lesbian. ”

“ But they won’t know that she is? ” she’s

sulking and it is cute. I pull her by her nape
and kiss her. “ does it matter that they know
baby? ”
“ No it doesn’t. ” I kiss her again. “ then
stop worrying about people who don’t give
two cents about you and our kids. We are
going to drop you off at the gate but firstly I
want to wake the kids up and say goodbye.”
She nods. I switch the engine off and we
both get out of the car and open the back
set doors and they yawn and wake up.

“ daddy are we already here? ” kagiso asks

me

“ hey champ don’t you want to go to the

bathroom first? ” he shakes his head “ no
dad. ” he says sadly. I look at kamo and
lesego picks her up. “ I’m going to take her
to the toilet. ”.

“ ok baby. ” I sit in the back seat with

kagiso. He looks so sad. “ what’s wrong
champ? ” I ask him.. He looks at me and I
see that he wants to cry.

“ are you going to leave us and never come

back too? ” I take a deep breath.

“ No champ I’m not. You are my kids and I’ll

never leave you. I love you kagiso.” I wipe
his tear drop. “ but you don’t live here with
us and you are going back.”

“ That doesn’t mean that you will never see

me again champ. ” his tears fall and it is
breaking my heart. “ I want to live with you
and mama and kamo. I don’t want to go
back daddy please! ” I feel like my heart is
being ripped out of my chest. I pick him up
and he hugs me very tight and sobs. I look
at Celeste who has been listening and her
eyes are teary too. I close my eyes and one
falls. I wipe it off. Lesego comes back and
she also looks like she was crying in the
toilets. She gets in I take kamo from her
and hug all of them. My family. I hear their
soft sobs but they are gut wrenching.

This feels like the hardest decision I have

ever made in my life. I didn’t know being a
parent was this hard. Seeing your kid cry
and begging to not leave them is very hard.
Now I understand why bonga was upset
that Sims left the kids behind. I kiss their
forehead. “ kids look at me. ” my little
Angel’s face is so red. I kiss her cheeks. “
don’t cry my little angel. Daddy will always
be here for you no matter where he lives.
When the school closes for the holidays I
will come and get you and take you to your
home in Durban ok?. ”
“ yes daddy. ” she says. I look at lesego
and she has her head buried on my chest. “
kagiso I need you to be strong and be the
man of the house while daddy is not here to
watch over you until I come back to get you.
Can you do that?. ”

“ yes daddy ” he says. My little man. “ and

mom

I take kamo from her and hug all of them.
My family. I hear their soft sobs but they are
gut wrenching.

Can you do that?. ”

“ yes daddy ” he says. My little man. “ and

mom I need you to be strong. Take care of
my kids until I come back and take my
family back with me home. Can you do that
lesego? ” she nods. I hate this. I really hate
this!. “ Celeste you know the direction.
Drive. ” she wipes her tears then drives out.
I have my arms wrapped around my family
and every time the car takes a corner my
heart feels like it is being stabbed with
knives and it makes it harder for me to
breath. I can’t breakdown and cry in front of
the kids. They need me to strong and if I
breakdown now they not be able to handle
it and cry. I take a deep breath in and then
out.

The car stops and she snakes her arm

around my waist tight and the kids hold me
tight. I hug them tight too. “ boss we are
here. ” I nod.

“ remember what daddy told you. It doesn’t

matter where I am because I love you all
very much. You are my family and I will
never leave you or forget about you.
Promise me that you will always know that
and remember it.” They nod. “ my little
angel kamo. Daddy loves you okay? ”

“ I love you too daddy. ” she says sniffing. “

give daddy a hug and a kiss here. ” she
laughs. “ no daddy you hair will grow on my
face too if I kiss it. ” she says. “ where are
you going to kiss me then? ” I ask her.. She
giggles. “ here. ” she places her soft hands
above my beard. Palms my face kisses my
forehead and then gives me a hug. “ I love
you too daddy. ” pure love. You can’t buy
that.

I look at kagiso and his eyes are pleading

with me. I don’t want to disappoint him but I
have to do this right. “ my little man. You
are going to be strong just like me your dad.
There are many things we are going to do
together like father and son. But for me to
do that dad has to do things the right way
for all of us okay? ”

“ ok dad.” I wonder if my dad was ever

faced with something similar to this. “ I love
you champ don’t forget that or let anyone
else tell you it’s not true. ” he wipes his
tears then hugs me. “ I love you too daddy.
I’ll take care of mom and kamo. ” I hug him
tight and close my eyes.

I look at this beautiful strong and wonderful

woman next to me. She has been wiping
her tears ever since we got here. Her life
has been filled with pain and misery and I
promised her to take away all of that but it
feels like I’m failing her cause I’m taking her
back where she is not wanted. “ mama
kagiso no kamohelo. Uyimbokodo wena
indlovukazi yami. Lapha enhlizweni yami
kubusa wena kuphela mama. Konke
osondlule kuko kukwenze waba yilomuntu

Translation: “ kagiso and kamohelo’s

mother. You are a strong woman. My
queen. You are the only one who has my
heart lesego. Everything you have
experienced in your life made you the
person you are today. You are a loving
caring woman and you sympathise with
others. You are a great mother to our kids
and I thank you for raising our kids alone
with no one to help you. Don’t cry my love I
am here now to wipe away your tears. God
has heard your cries and prayers. He sent
my ancestors to me to tell me that you need
me. I am here now my love. From now
onwards you will only cry tears of joy. I love
you maMotaung. ” she kisses me then sobs
in my chest.

“ I love you too Mapholoba. ” we hug and

stay silent. Now this is the hard part. Letting
them go. “ let’s get out of the car. ” kagiso
shakes his head. “ no daddy please!. Take
us with you!. I want to go with you! ” he
says crying. My champ. Celeste gets our of
the car and comes to open my side of the
door. I step out carefully watching their
heads cause I have both my kids on my
chest. I look around and see that the cars
have drawn out some attention. I look
behind me and see mbuso and bonga. My
brothers are here with me. I tear up. They
come and put both their hands on
shoulders offering support.

Celeste takes their bags out of the car and

put them close to the gate. I see people
coming out of the house. Only silent tears
are falling off lesego’s face. I put the kids
down and crouch to their level. I hug them
tight and kiss both their heads. “ I love you
guys. ” I tell them they are now sniffing. I try
to get up but they don’t want to let go of me.
“ kids we talked about this ” my voice is
breaking. They slowly let go then go to their
mother. “ hey look at me? ” I palm her face.
She looks up. Her eyes are so red. “ I will
call you and remember everything I told you
okay my love? ” she nods. I kiss her then
hug her tight. It’s hard to let go but we must.
“ please take the kids. I don’t want to say
goodbye to them. ” my tears fall. She looks
at me and wipes them.

She takes both of their hands and kagiso

loses it and screams. “ daddy please!
Please daddy! ” I look at him and the
connection I have with him is very strong.
His gut wrenching cries tear every wall I
have ever built around myself. “ I can’t
watch this! ” bonga says and leaves. I
watch lesego drag kagiso by force and my
little angel is just watching me crying. My
tears fall and I don’t bother wiping them off.
I want them to see that it is killing me and
hurting me like them.

“ Qina ndoda. We will fix everything. I

promise you brother. ” ( be strong man.) I
hear kagiso again screaming my name and
I just can’t take it. I get in the front seat of
the passenger seat and break down. I hear
the door closing and an engine roaring. “
sicelo are you sure about this?. ” mbuso
asks me. I nod. He curses. He reverses
then drives. It’s like I’m leaving my heart life
and abandoning my family. This feels
wrong. I can’t!.

“ what the Fuck?!” mbuso says and stops

the car. I look at him then look at the back
and see kagiso running behind the car
crying and lesego is running after him and
another man too is running after them. We
both get out and run. I run to kagiso pick
him up and give him to mbuso he gives him
to bonga. I run to the man chasing after
lesego and get between them.

“ who the fuck are you and my are you

chasing them? ” I roar. He stops and looks
at me.
“ I am her brother who the fuck are you? ”
ignore him. “ lesego where is kamo? ” I ask
her. “ she’s… She’s in the house. ”

“ go and get my child or I swear to God I will

get in there and take her myself!. ” I tell her.
Celeste pulls her and they leave.

“ who the fuck are you and what are you

doing with my sister’s children? ”

“ voetsek msunu!. ” mbuso says to him. I

will kill this guy right here if he stands in my
way.

“ hey who the hell do you think you are

talking to me like that? ” he says shouting.
One thing you never ever do is shout at
mbuso unless your luh but she also doesn’t
shout at him.

“ say one more thing out of your stinking

mouth and your family will bury you next
week. ” I tell him. That shuts him up.
Celeste comes back with lesego and kamo
with their bags. Kamo runs to me and clings
for dear life. I hold my little angel tight. I go
to the car when kagiso is still crying and he
jumps to me. I grab him too and get in the
car with my kids.

Lesego comes in too and sits. Mbuso is

driving and Celeste is sitting on the front
with him. Bonga goes to mbuso's car. “
where to now brother? ” mbuso asks me.
“ drive to lesego house. ” she stops crying
and looks at me shocked. I pull her to me
too.

“ I wasn’t leaving. I could never leave you

guys.” I tell them and hold my kids to my
chest and comfort them.

CHAPTER 47

SICELO.
“ what do you mean we are going to my
house sicelo? ” she hiccups. “ stop crying
baby. The kids don’t like to see you crying.
We will talk when we get home. ” she nods.

“ daddy? ” kamo calls me. I look at mbuso

and he smiles. “ yes my little angel? ”

“ are you sad too? ” she asks me and I

smile. “ I am angel. But daddy will be fine. ”
she nods. “ it’s okay to cry daddy.” I chuckle
and kiss her forehead. I look at kagiso and
his head is on my chest. He has stopped
crying but I sense his anger. He is very
angry. I kiss his head and sigh. Mbuso
drives around then drives in to this house
he sent me pictures of.

It is huge and beautiful and I know that it is

my sister who found it. He parks outside the
garage. “ baby take the kids and go check
out your new home.” Mbuso gives her the
keys. She nods and takes them. “ kids go
with mom to the house. I want to talk with
your uncles.” Kagiso shakes his head no
and refuses.

“ kagiso I’m not leaving you son. We will be

here in the car. ” he still shakes his head
no. “ can I stay with you here daddy
please? ” he asked me this once and I told
him something else and now that he’s
asking me again I cannot refuse him and
say no twice. ”

“ ok champ. Baby take kamo and go in the

house. Celeste will be with you. ” she nods.

“ I just wanted to say thank you all for being

here. I know you don’t know me but what
you did for all of us today I will never forget.
Thank you and I’m sorry meeting you for
first time was like this. ” she says to mbuso
and bonga. I don’t like that she looks
ashamed.

“ don’t ever apologize for a situation you

had no control over and never feel
ashamed around us. You are our family
now and whatever you go through we all
experience it with you.” Mbuso ssays “
thank you ” she says.

“ these kids are also our kids now. We will

do anything to protect you and our kids. No
one messes with our family. ” bonga says.
I’m really grateful to have them in my life. “
thank you again. ” she takes kamo and they
go to the door. She unlocks the house then
gets in. I see her shoulders shaking. She’s
crying. They get in and close the door
behind them.

I look at my brothers and sigh. I am so

emotionally drained and very mad. “ thank
you for being here with me. I don’t know
what I could have done if you were not
here. ”

“ we are brothers and you know we always

have your back. We wouldn’t let you come
here alone after telling us what was
happening to them. ” bonga says. I nod. “
how did you find us cause I didn’t tell you
where we were in the road. ” I ask them.

“ you know I’m tracking everyone. We drove

here before you then followed you to the
garage. I had to see for myself and find out
more about them. ” I knew he would do
that.

“ thank you brothers. Thank you. ” they nod.

“ we will talk once this little man let’s go of
me. ” they smile.

“ you really are great with them. The love

you all have for each other is amazing
mam. I’m happy for you brothers I really
am.” Mbuso says.

“ I understand now why bonga was mad

when Sims didn’t show up with the kids. I
thought I was going to have a heart attack
seeing them in that state. ” I tell them.

“ yeah man when kids love you they

wholeheartedly love you. I love those boys
man. I would do anything for them. ” we nod
and then get silent.

“ daddy? ” kagiso says looking up at me. “

hey champ? you feeling better now? ” he
doesn’t say anything. I’m worried about
him. “ uncle hit mama and grandma pushed
kamo and she fell. Grandpa wanted to hit
mama too but I ran away to tell you that
they were hurting them daddy. I was scared
daddy. ” I bring him to my chest and hold
him. “ it’s okay champ. Daddy and your
uncles will fix it okay? ” he agrees. “ yes
daddy.”

What I feel now is nothing compared to

what I thought I felt. I’m enraged and I want
blood. “ go and be with your family. There’s
food in the house. They need you now
more than ever. We've got this.” Mbuso
says. He knows what I want and I know he
will get and put him somewhere. “ Thank
you brothers.” I get out of the car and go to
the house. The house is still empty but
tomorrow we have some shopping to do.
We follow their voices and it sounds like
they are in a bedroom. At least they bought
us a bed. I chuckle. I open the door and we
find them sitting down on the carpet and
there’s a picnic type of thing going on there.
I place kagiso down take off my shoes he
does the same and we sit down and join
them.

“ what do we have here. Oh I am so hungry

” I say. Kamo gets up from where she was
sitting and sits on my lap. “ we are having a
picnic daddy look there’s so much food for
all of us. ” I bit a samosa

“ and it tastes yummy. So let’s sit down and

have a meeting. ” lesego looks at me kamo
gets up and sits down and looks serious. I
chuckle and she shows me her perfect
smile. Lesego is not okay at all but she’s
putting a brave from for the kid’s sake. I
take her hand. “ so dad would like to
apologize to all of you for what happened at
your grandparents house. I’m sorry I took
you there and left you. I didn’t feel right
leaving you behind and just as I was to stop
the car…. I..saw you guys running to the
car and that will haunt me. I was not leaving
you my kids. I wanted to surprise you
tomorrow. I was going to show up in the
morning and drive you to school.” Their
eyes get huge with excitement eating their
sandwiches. “ I was going to come and pick
you up from school with mom and then I
was going to surprise you again and bring
you here and show you your new house
daddy bought for mommy and you. ” they
scream get up excitedly and attack me with
hugs and kisses. I laugh out loud.
“ really daddy? this is our house and we are
going to live here? ” kagiso asks me with so
much enthusiasm. “ yes champ. You are
never ever going to live with your
grandparents. This is your new home. ” for
now.

“ wow and we get to choose out own

rooms? ” he asks again and I chuckle. “ yes
champ. ” they let go of me and sit down. “
daddy I want this room to be my room. ”
kamo says licking her hands.

“ no baby. This is our room. Me and your

dad are going to be sleeping here. ” she
looks at us frowning. “ I will sleep with you
and daddy then. ” she says. Lesego and I
look at each other and smile. “ only babies
sleep with their parents kamo. ” kagiso
says.

“ I’m not a baby!. I’m a big girl right daddy?

” kids. “ you are my angel and big girls
have their own rooms and sleep alone. ”
she huffs. “ ok daddy I’ll sleep in my room
and I promise I won’t cry. ” I chuckle kagiso
rolls his eyes. We laugh. I love these kids.
My kids. My family. “ but tonight we are all
going to sleep in here. We have to go and
buy you pyjamas. ” they exclaim excited.

“ do you all forgive me? ” I ask them.

“ yes daddy ” they sing. Lesego nods.

We finish eating then we get up

Sponsored
wear our shoes and leave. Mbuso bonga
and Celeste are outside talking. “ want to
join us for shopping and maybe have a bite
to eat before you guys drive back? ” I look
at the time it’s still early. Mbuso can make it
home by 7pm if he leaves around 5 pm.

“ let’s go guys but I won’t eat too much

cause my wife would literally kill me if I tell
her I’m not eating her food. ” we laugh. I get
in my car and my family rides with me. We
drive to the mall and the kids are so excited
they can’t even hid it. Their mother however
is a different story. “ love? ” she smiles but
it doesn’t reach her big beautiful eyes. “ can
you try to be happy and excited for the kids
cause if they see you sad and not excited
like them they will not enjoy this. ” she
palms my beard.
“ why would I need to pretend when I’m
already happy. I wish you could see the
happiness that I’m feeling inside. Sicelo
man like you are rare and hard to find. I
promise you that I will never disappoint you.
I’ll show you everyday that you made the
right decision by loving all of us. I wish I
could repay you for what you have done for
me. ” oh lesego is still scared and thinks
that all of this is going to be taken away
from her. The only way that could be
achieved is if someone kills me but that still
won’t make her go back to the life she was
living because she will be fucken rich well
she is rich now. She justdoesn’t know it yet.
I smile.

“ what are you smiling about? ” she asks

me. “ I was thinking of a way you can repay
me.” She laughs. “ ok I’m listening spit it
out. ”
“ all you have to do is respect me love me
and trust me. That’s how you can repay me.
”

“ you already have all of that baby. You

don’t have to ask me. ”

“ oh and give me lots and lots of kids. ” she

laughs. “ I can’t wait to start practising
making babies with you. ” I wink at her and
she laughs blushing. We park at the mall
and step out of the car. The kids step out
and are excited. We are going to be doing
many things as a family. I hope lesego is
ready for the love she’s about to experience
with this family. I take her hand and walk to
the mall.
LESEGO.

He takes my hand and we walk in. All eyes

are on us because I am walking with three
very drop dead gorgeous handsome man I
never knew existed. Men I read about on
romance novels. Men who command
attention without even speaking. I’m in the
middle between my man. Yes my man and
his brother mbuso who has kagiso hand
and bonga who is holding kamo’s hand with
Celeste. They way they are walking I feel
like I’m being protected.

I squeeze sicelo's hand and he kisses me..

I giggle and I can’t stop myself from smiling.
Women stop and look at the men walking
with us. Celeste has to be the hottest
lesbian woman I have ever seen. Mbuso is
scary and very intense. He has this thing
about him that tells you respect me I’m not
your friend and you don’t fuck with me. My
man is like that too but not so scary like his
brother who would make my dad shit his
pants. I would love to see that happen.
Bonga is like his brother too but he’s not
scary and I feel like he’s the one I could
make a conversation with without being
scared and want to shit myself.

I love uSicelo. I love this man very much

and I’ll feel forever grateful to him. One day
I hope I will show him how much I love him.
“ where are we shopping mama? ” the way
he says mama to me hits me deep in my
heart. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy. “
we can go to my parents house and collect
their school uniform and books and all our
clothes. ” I tell him.

“ guys go to Woolworths we will find you

there. ” they take the kids with them. “ love
what do you really need from your back
room? ” he asks me. “ their birth certificates
and school books. Our clothes too sicelo
because I don’t trust them.” He sighs.

“ okay baby. ” we go to Woolworths and

begin to shop. They take kagiso and go to
the boys section to look for some clothes.
Celeste helps me select school clothes and
the men join us we and up buying so many
things and unnecessary things because the
uncles both want to buy the kids stuff. I look
around and notice that there are many
women in the shop now than when we
arrived. It must be the Zulu giant men here
in the shop. They pay and give the security
guys some of the shopping and take the
rest to the cars we came in. They come
back and I look at my handsome man and I
know and truly believe that God blessed
me. He does answer our prayers in the
end.
He comes to me picks me up and spins me
around and I laugh. He kisses me and
people are looking at us even the one’s I
know and I’m sure my whole family now
knows and I don’t care. We go to spur and
all the girls who work there rush to us. “
remind me to never go shopping with you
guys. It’s a nightmare the women my God!.
” Celeste says irritated as we sit down.
Three girls come to serve us and their eyes
are on all these men. I shake my head and
chuckle. The kids go and play.

“ we don’t care about women who look at

us or even try to get our attention. We are
all taken by the women we love and who
love us and who are not afraid to kill us.”
mbuso says. Sicelo pecks my cheek and I
blush. I’m not used to this kind of attention
but I absolutely love it. My life has changed
and for the best. Thank you my Guardian
Angel who ever you are out there for
looking out for me. They bring our drinks
and I order for the kids and myself. Celeste
orders for herself then the men look at me.
Ohk what’s going on?

“ what’s wrong? ” I ask them but looking at

my man.

“ our wives are not here and you are not

ordering for us or even your husband. Bafo
we are going to starve here ” mbuso says
then they all fold their arms. What? Their
wives order for them and now I must order
for them too?. Celeste looks like she wants
to burst out laughing.

“ uhm I’m sorry bhuti mbuso but I don’t

know what you eat. ” I tell him.
“ we eat the same thing your man eats. ”
bonga says. I have never been this
confused in my life and sicelo is not helping
me at all. He looks so amused. So I order
for them medium rump stakes the last
number they have with vegetables. They
look at me shocked.

“ you really are going to make us eat

vegetables? ” bonga says like he wants to
vomit. What’s wrong with vegetables cause
they all look like they eat healthy. “ lungi
knows I hate vegetables and I don’t eat
them.” Is mbuso sulking?.

“ Bathong hanthi lebatla hoja eng?!. ” ( what

exactly do you want to eat?) I ask them
confused. They look at me and I see their
mouths moving then they all burst out
laughing loud. What the hell? I end up
laughing and joining them. Sicelo kisses me
full on the mouth still laughing.

“ Relax mama. They are just playing with

you. ” he is still laughing.

“ welcome lesego. But please don’t starve

us when we visit your home. ” mbuso says
chuckling. He knows how to joke and smile.
I’m shocked!.

“ I promise I wont. Celeste why didn’t you

warm me? ” I ask her.

“ they are idiots ” she whispers. I laugh.

“ thank you for everything you have done
for us since we met you aunty Celeste ”
they all laugh.

“ oh hell no!. I’m always going to be

Celeste. No. Aunty here ” we laugh.

“ lesego? lesego?. ” the whole table goes

quiet. I look up and it’s my sister with her
husband who is holding an envelope. My
smile vanishes that same moment. The
whole mood shifts around us on the table.
What the hell does she want.
Continual Of Chapter 47

LESEGO.

The mood instantly changed around the

table. She takes a seat no one told her to
take and is about to sit down but mbuso
gets up and sits next to sicelo. Mapaseka
looks at him confused then her husband
sists next to her and she’s sitting next to
bonga who looks bored. I open my mouth to
ask her what the hell she wants but my man
shakes his head. “ oh wow lesego. When
mom said you left with some men who
looked shady I didn’t realise she was talking
about the famous business man It Guru
Mbuso Gumede you know he holds a PhD
in IT right? And that’s his brother who’s an
architect? ” she points at bonga. How the
hell does she know them?. “ and then
siqelo ngcobo one of the best engineers
south Africa has like wow! . Did you know
that his family supplies the biggest
supermarkets here in South Africa with
meat and… . ”

“ kahle!. ubani wena ntombazane

ongakwazi nokubulisa? ” yep don’t mess
with mbuso. “ wazimema wahlala phansi
then you begin telling us our CV’s?. Didn’t
your parents taught you manners? ” ( wait!
who are you girlie who doesn’t know how to
greet people?. You invite yourself and sit
down…. …. .). Mbuso asks her.
“ Oh I thought you know me? ” mapaseka
says. The guys and Celeste look at each
other they burst out laughing loud. She
looks at them confused..

“ now why the hell would you think that.

What gave you that idea? ” bonga asks.
She looks at her husband Tefo who’s
looking embarrassed.

“ well I am lesego's sister and I thought she

told you about me?. ”

“ She told who? ” Celeste asks her.

“ uhm I mean all of you. I know mbuso that

you are married to your very beautiful wife
so my sister is maybe seeing your brother
or siqelo. I mean wow lesego you go to
Durban then you come back with these rich
business men wow sis. How did you do it?.
” she says laughing to herself. Her eyes
keep going to mbuso and she blushes a
little. This bitch.

“ did what mapaseka? ” I ask her

“ oh please you know what I mean. Look we

came here cause my husband is a business
man and he has this really great business
idea. So since my sister is seeing one of
you I thought that hey let me bring my
husband here then you guys can help him
out since we are all going to be family now.
”

“ how did you know we are here

mapaseka? ”
“ dad followed you after you left. So which
one is yours sis? ” she asks me and I
cannot believe what she has just said. The
nerve of this woman and now she’s going to
pretend that me and her have this sisterly
relationship?.

“ Tefo take your wife and go back to the

whole the both of you crawled out of and
never do what you did here. ” I tell
mapaseka's husband.

“ Oh please lesego. All you have to do is tell

me that you are not seeing one of them. I
mean you dating one of these men?!. ” she
laughs and claps her hand. I get so angry I
want to slap her and wipe that smug smile
of her face. Sicelo grabs my hand. I look at
him and he smiles and I smile too.
“ I love you ” he says. Mapaseka gasps in
shock

“ I love you too ” he kisses me then looks at

tefo.

“ get up!. ” sicelo says looking at tefo then

mapaseka. They look at each other
confused. “ I said get the fuck up! ” they
both stand. Tefo looks scared now and
mapaseka the stupid one stands up smiling
shaking her saggy hips. She’s is still looking
at mbuso who’s not even paying her
attention.

His phone rings and his whole face and

demeanor changes. He smiles a full blown
smile and I hear mapaseka sighing. I know
mbuso is handsome and he has that thing
about him but mapaseka is totally being
disrespectful to her husband. I hope now he
sees what trash he married.

Mbuso answers his phone. “ khanyo?” he

chuckles my God the man is handsome but
I only have eyes on the man I love but that
doesn’t mean I don’t see how handsome
mbuso is. “ I’m coming baby. I’ll be there in
an hour and thirty minutes. I love you
khanyo. ” he listens then chuckles shaking
his head. He hangs up and looks at sicelo.
Who is khanyo now?. My man shakes his
head. “ I have to go brothers I’lll see you
tomorrow. ” he says to sicelo and bonga.
They bro hug then he looks at me. “ I’ll see
you too tomorrow maMotaung. Tell the kids
uncle mbuso had to leave but I’ll see them
tomorrow ”
“ thank you again bhuti mbuso. ” he nods. “
Celeste walk me out. ”

“ sure boss ” she says and they leave.

Mapaseka is still looking at mbuso with lust
in her eyes and her mouth is open. She’s
fucken disgusting right now. “ close your
mouth!. You are fucken disgusting and
disgracing your husband right now and stop
lusting after other people’s husbands..” She
gasps in shock and I am shocked to
because I never swear.

“ I wasn’t lusting after him. I was just

looking and there’s nothing wrong with
looking. ” she says annoyed.

“ Tefo that’s your name right?. Take that

piece of trash you call a wife away from
here while you still have some of your
dignity left. ”

“ brother please I just need to have a

meeting with you and tell you about my
idea. Please I could really use an investor. ”
he says desperately and I almost feel sorry
for him but I don’t. In fact I’m annoyed.

“ I’m not your brother. Don’t ever call me

that. Get the fuck off! ” sicelo says annoyed.
“ but lesego talk to him ”

“ You heard my man. Now fuck off!. ” I tell

her. Bonga laughs.

“ we are family lesego. Talk to him. I’ll be

expecting your call.”
“ you talk to much mapaseka. For fuck’s
sakes leave. ” bonga says. Tefo takes his
envelope and leaves mapaseka who is
standing there like her shoes are glued to
the floor.

The kids come back running and laughing

then they stop when they see mapaseka. “
daddy ” kamo says. “ come here angel. ”
she sits next to her dad and kagiso sits next
to bonga. “ wow they are calling him dad
already?. Does thuto know that you are
making his kids call another man dad?. ”
she says shocked.

“ ohk we have entertained you for long now

leave!. ” bonga says.
“ I am going to tell him lesego. He has to
know what you are doing with his kids!.
What did he give you? oh my God you are
already pregnant for him aren’t you!. That is
the only reason why they would be here!.
You trapped him with a baby like how you
trapped thuto…” I quickly get up and slap
the shit out of her face.

“ lesego did you just slap me!. ” she says

trying to slap me back but sicelo gets up
quickly to block the slap but then Celeste
pulls her back by her weave and she
screams. “ they are attacking me they are
attacking me arrest them!. ” oh my God I
cannot believe I just slapped her.

“ ma'am please leave the restaurant. You

are causing a scene and disturbing our
guests. ” the manager says to mapaseka. “
sir I’m sorry for this woman ruining your
dinner. Security! they are attacking me
arrest them!. ” oh my God I cannot believe I
just slapped her.

“ ma'am please leave the restaurant. You

are causing a scene and disturbing our
guests. ” the manager says to mapaseka. “
sir I’m sorry for this woman ruining your
dinner. Security! security ” he calls the mall
security they come and drag my sister out
screaming and threatening me.

“ I’m sorry I didn’t mean to hit her. I have

never hit anyone in my life. ” I apologize.
They bring our food and the kids eat.
“ she deserved that and more baby. Let’s
eat and leave. The kids have school
tomorrow. ” I nod.

“ you should have slapped her the moment

she started talking smack about you. You
handled yourself well cause if it was my
woman? Man we would be talking a
different story. ” he says shaking his head
smiling.

“ yeah Sims is crazy. They would have

kicked all of us out ” they laugh and just like
that we have forgotten about my sister. We
have light conversations as we are eating. I
don’t know how much they tipped the
waitress but I’m sure it was a lot because
they screamed with excitement. We are at
the parking lot. The kids get in the car when
the three suddenly look at me serious.
“ what’s wrong? ” sicelo sighs then looks at
me.

“ Celeste and the guys went to your parents

house to get your clothes and when they
got there… . ” he gets hesitant.

“ they chased them away? ”

“ no baby. They found them burned. They

burned all of your things including those of
the kids. Everything is gone. ” I look at him
then bonga and Celeste and I can see their
worried faces. Tears well in my eyes.
Everything I have worked hard for years is
gone because they hate that much?!. “ why
do these things happen to me sicelo? Why
does my family hate me this much?. What
did I ever do to them to do these things to
me?. Why can’t I just have a moment of
peace? ” I break down and cry in his arms.
He holds me and comforts me.

I wipe my tears and look at him. “ it’s okay. I

can always get new birth certificates for
them. They had along day and tomorrow it’s
a school day. We don’t have beds in our
house so where are you going to sleep? ” I
ask bonga and Celeste.

“ we booked into a hotel. We will stay there

but some of the guys are coming with you.
To watch out in case anything happens
since your father was following us cause I
think he knows where you live now. ” bonga
says. I nod.
“ we will see you tomorrow girl. ” Celeste
give me a hug and surprisingly bonga too
then we get in the cars and leave. We get
home and the security guys help us take
everything in the house. I take the toiletries
to the bathroom then run a bath for kids. “
kamo kagiso come and bath. ” I hear
sicelo shouting and telling them not to run.
They come in running still. They take off
their clothes then get in the bath. I bath
them then put them in their new pyjamas.

“ where is your dad? ” I ask them.

“ he was on the phone mommy ” I nod. “ ok

get in bed. ”
“ can daddy come and put us to bed like
those kids we see in the TV? ” I smile.

“ daddy is here and he wouldn’t miss this

for the world ” he says picking up both of
them up. He is so strong and so sexy. My
man is everything. I open the duvet and he
puts them in the middle of the bed and I
cover them.

“ daddy? ” kagiso says.

“ champ?. ”

“ when we wake up in the morning you will

be here right? ” sicelo palms his face. “ I
made a promise to you that I am never
going to leave you and I won’t. I will be right
here in the morning and take my champ
and princess to school. ”

“ ok dad. ” he says.

“ now sleep cause tomorrow your friends

will be excited to see you. ” they nod. He
kisses both their cheeks. I miss them too.

“ good night kids. ” he says.

“ good night mommy good night daddy. ”

kagiso says and kamo repeats after him.
He smiles. I can see the love he has for my
kids and I know it comes from his heart.
Thank you God for blessing me with this
amazing man and his family.
“ love you daddy ” kamo says smiling. He
looks her and smiles.

“ I love you more angel. I love you too

champ. ” she giggles and kagiso nods. We
switch the lights to dim and half close the
bedroom door. “ come with me. ” he says
taking my hand and leads me to another
bedroom. The whole house is empty. I wish
the house came with furniture cause I have
no clue about decorating a house this big
but I hope sicelo's sister can help me. I will
ask sicelo for her numbers.

He takes me to the bathroom and I see that

he was lighting candles all around the
bathroom. I smile. “ it looks beautiful baby.
Thank you. ” I tell him. “ you had along day
and so you deserve some pampering.” He
helps me get out of my clothes then I get in
the bath and sigh. “ aren’t you joining me?
” I ask him.

“ uh baby I don’t think that’s a good idea. ” I

smile.

“ baby get in the bath tub with me please?.

” I beg him.

“ ok but I still don’t think it’s a good idea. ” I

smile. He takes off his t-shirt off shoes belt
watch and then his pants with underwear
and his dick springs free. I sigh and my
thighs squirm.

“ you still think it’s a good idea? ” I nod. He

chuckles then gets in behind me. His thighs
touch mine and his chest on my back then
his thick hard dick is on my back. My
nipples get hard and I swallow.

“ baby are you okay? ” I nod. “ talk to me. ”

he says.

“ uhm nothing baby. ”

“ ok. ” he says and I think he is smiling. He

pulls me back more closer to him. My body
shudders when I feel how long his dick is.
My nipples are so hard right now. He
snakes his hand around my waist I moan. I
close my eyes and take a deep breath and
lay my head back on his chest. I feel his
breath on my face. I swallow again my body
get really hot. It must be the warm water.

“ baby? ”
“ hmmm ” but it sounded like a moan. He
opens his mouth and I feel warm air then he
nips it and I definitely moan this time. His
hands go up and palms my breasts. He
plays with my nipples and I feel like I want
more. I turn my face and look at him. His
hand goes down and down. I open my legs
and welcome him as he palms my pussy. “
he looks at me and asks me “ what do you
want? ”

“ You. ” I tell him straight not hesitating. He

claims my mouth his fingers find my
sensitive nub and oh God he… .

CHAPTER 48
LESEGO.

He slips his finger in me killing me deeply

and passionately. Our tongues dance
together out teeth clash for a brief moment
and I get lost in the moment as he moves
his finger in and out of my tight channel. I
open my legs wider cause the sensation the
emotions he is evoking in me are
something I have never felt before. I don’t
know what to do to myself. His lips are so
soft and his kisses are driving me crazy.

I put my hand on top of his hand that is

fingering me and I mimic his movement. His
other hand wraps around my throat and
groans when I move his hand off mine and I
put my fingers on my clit. He likes it. I rub
my sensitive nub and rub it softly up and
down and all a round. God this feels so
good. How did I live so long without feeling
a man’s touch on my skin and in my body?.
He adds another finger and I move my hips
as his hand adds more pressure in me and
pumps fast in and out. His thumb and my
fingers both rub my clit in all different
directions and I feel my blood running to my
clit. My vagina muscles clamp around his
fingers contracting. I move my hand off his
kisses get more hungrier more harder and
fast. He adds another third finger fingers
me with his other three finger and presses
the pad of his thumb on my clit and I lose it
and come all over his fingers contracting all
around them. He swallows my cries and he
keeps kissing and fingering me until I come
down from my climax.

“ you okay baby? ” I nod. He chuckles. “

move forward baby. ” I move forward and
my body still wants more. I want him. I want
to feel him in me filling me up. He gets out
of the bath dries himself and his dick is so
hard and pre-cum is leaking out. I can
imagine him getting that dick in me and
fucking my brains off. I get up step out of
the bathtub and he dries me. Is this it? Are
we done?. I am disappointed.

“ Baby ” I call him. He smiles and gets up

from kneeling wiping my feet. “ yes baby?. ”
he says and it’s like he knows what I’m
going to ask him.

“ are we done?...we are not going

to……you know what? ” He laughs and
pulls me to him. “ you mean make love and
then fuck each other? ” he asks me
smirking. Heat creeps up on my face. Does
he have to be so crass though?. “ yeah. Are
we not doing it? ” he laughs then puts his
hands on my shoulders and pushes me
down softly until I get on my knees. I am
directly face to face with his dick and I suck
in my breath when I see how massive it is.

I swallow and look at it ok I can do this. I did

it once and I can do it again. I take a deep
breath in and close my eyes. I don’t have to
think about it. This is different. It is not the
same. I love this man and he loves me. “
baby are you okay? ” I nod. My eyes are
still closed. My heart rate is changing and it
is beating faster and faster. “ lesego? ”

“ just give me a moment baby. I will do it.

Just… . ” I can feel my tears streaming
down my face. “ baby look at me. ” he says
and I shake my head no. I can’t look at him.
He pulls me up to him and looks at me. “
hey it’s okay. You don’t have to do anything
you don’t want to do okay?. You don’t have
to cry baby.” He says and I sniff and shake
my head.
It’s not him it’s me. How do I tell him that
the problem is with me.. “ I’m sorry for
pushing you. I knew you were not ready
and I just let emotions get the better of me
and I’m sorry baby. ”

I shake my head no again. I want to explain

but my lips won’t move. I am scared of my
shame. I don’t know if he will look at me the
same way like before after I have told him
what I did.

“ baby please look at me and tell me what is

wrong? ” I wrap my arms around him and
hold him. “ lesego you are shaking. Did
someone hurt you? ” I don’t know how to
answer that because I’m not sure myself. “
baby please open up to me. You don’t have
to scared.”
He picks me up I wrap my legs around his
waist then he sits down in the closed toilet
bowl. My head is on his neck and I breathe
him in and I calm down a little. “ whenever
you are ready I’ll be here listening. You
don’t have to tell me now but know that
whatever you tell me won’t change anything
about my love for you. I loved you
yesterday I love you now and I will love you
forever. ” he says.

I look at this wonderful man and kiss him. “ I

applied for the cleaners post at the kids
school and when I got a call that I was one
of the few people selected to come to the
interviews the next day I was so happy and
excited. I thought finally I’m going to have a
job and provide for my kids. I prayed during
the night and the following morning. I left
with the kids to school and decided to wait
there because my interview was at nine am.
The others arrived and one by one they
went in and did their interview. I was the
last one and the time was around 12:15pm.
I got in and the principal was alone. I was
surprised that he was alone because I
thought the SGB members would be part of
the interviewers. I sat down and did my
interview. He was professional and all then
I went home after he told me they would
call after he has made a decision. ” I take a
deep breath. He is brushing my back up
and down.

“ I got a call from one of the clerks telling

me that one have to come for a second
interview because there was something not
adding up on my CV. I was surprised cause
I did write that I have no work experience
and I didn’t lie about it. The interview was
that day at 3pm. I left the kids alone and
told them to lock up and not open for
anyone until I come back. When I got there
there was only the clerk. She told me to go
to the office and I did. When I got there
again he was alone. I didn’t think it was
weird or anything cause the last I was here
he was alone.

I sat down and he asked the same

questions he asked before and I gave him
the same answers. He then tells that I
qualify in all ways but I know how these
things work. I was confused as to what he
was talking about. He tells me that I have to
bribe him to give me the job. I was shocked
but because I was desperate I asked how
much the bribe is and he told me it’s R2500
and I didn’t have that money and there was
no were I was going to get it. I asked me to
give me five minutes to call my sister and
he agreed. I called mapaseka my brother
and my parents and they all refused. They
said they had no money for me. I was
devastated sicelo. I really needed that job
because it was going to make my kid’s life a
little better. I told the principal that I’m
struggling to get hold of the money but I will
go to a loan shark and borrow from there
then come back and he refused. He told me
there was another way to pay. ” I have
never told anyone what happened. What I
did.

“ you don’t have to continue baby if it is

hard. ” he says. I shake my head no. “ I
have never told anyone this sicelo but
because I trust you I want you to know what
I did. ” he pecks my cheek and nods. “ I
asked him what is the other way for me to
pay and he said I could… he wants me to
give him a blow job. I looked at him
shocked as he unbuckled his pants and he
took it out. I was so scared sicelo. I thought
he was going to rape me. I stood there
shocked and watched him disgusted as he
got himself hard. He asked me to make a
decision or get the hell out of there. I really
wanted to leave but I thought about my kids
and one lousy blow job.” His chest is wet
because of my tears. “ I told him that I will
do it once and he must promise me that he
will not rape me. He agreed and pushed me
to my knees and…. I did it. ” he curses
softly and holds me tighter. “ I didn’t want to
do it but I thought of kids sicelo. I only did it
for them. I hated every moment and I hated
myself more as he kept doing it. When he
was done I got up and ran out. I couldn’t cry
as I walked all the way home and I thought
everyone who looked at me knew what I
did.

When I got to my room I made the kids food

and they asked to go play outside and I
agreed. All these thoughts started playing
on my mind that what if he is going to
change his mind and not offer me the job
and I had already done something like this.
I was disgusted with myself and I cried. I
brushed my teeth until my gums were
bleeding because Icould still feel him in my
mouth. I got the job and my family accused
me of sleeping with him for the job since I
couldn’t get hold of the money. My mom
once called me a slut and a prostitute and I
told her that I would do anything for my kids
even if it means I must sell my body to
provide for them then I would cause no one
will help me. I wanted to tell you this cause I
know my family will tell you lies about how I
got the job. I was ashamed of myself sicelo
but I was happy that I got the job and the
principal never asked another thing from
me. I hate what I did but what I know is I
would do anything for my kids not to
struggle and I would do it again for them. ” I
choke up.
He takes a deep breath in and breathes out
deeply. “ I don’t judge you lesego and I
don’t blame you for what you did. If you had
your family’s support and thuto's supporting
the kids you wouldn’t have done what you
did. Your back was against the wall and you
did like any other mother would do and that
is to put food on the table for her kids. You
did not do this for enjoyment but for seeking
security for our kids. You getting that job
meant our kids won’t have to go to bed with
an empty stomach. It really hurts me to
hear what you had to do while the people
who were suppose to be there for you didn’t
help you in anyway. ” he sighs.

“ I love you and I am proud to call you the

mother of my kids. The world has been
against you for far too long but now leave
everything to me and let me take care of
you and our kids. You will never again
struggle in your life for as long as I live and
even after. You will always be taken care
of. I’m proud of you baby. You have come
out victorious each and every time when life
wasbhard and it wanted you to fail. Our kids
have one amazing woman and I love you
more now than I did thirty minutes ago ” I
giggle. “ thank you for trusting me and
telling me all of this because I know it was
hard to share that with me. Your secrets are
safe with me. I won’t ever use what you
have told me against you in anyway I
promise you that. ” he pecks my cheek and
holds me.

“ thank you mapholoba. ” we hold each

other and just sit silently. “ let’s go to bed.
We have kids that must wake up and go to
school. ” he says.

“ I have to go to work tomorrow too. ” I

remind him. “ you are no longer going to
work there. You will tell him tomorrow when
we drop off the kids. ” he says and that’s
final.

“ sicelo? ” I look at him.

“ not open for negotiation or discussion.

Let’s go to bed. I’m tired. ” he says and
picks us up. “ we can’t sleep with the kids
naked baby ” I giggle. “ fuck me!. Wear
your pyjamas and I’ll look for my shorts and
T-shirt. ” he puts me down. I turn and he
spanks my ass and I laugh.

“ I love you and your sexy ass!. ” he says

“ I love you but I think I love your dick more.

” I tell him laughing he laughs too. He
bought something to wear from Woolworths
and we wear our pyjamas. We go to bed
and watch our kids sleeping peaceful. I
gently pick up kagiso and put him on the
other side.

“ what are you doing? ” he whispers. “ I

want to fall asleep in your arms.” He nods. I
get in bed and he gets in after me. His front
to my back kamo then kagiso.

“ I love you lesego. ”

“ I love you sicelo. Good night. ”

“ good night baby. ” I sigh and sleep cause I

feel like a huge loud has been lifted off my
shoulders. I sleep with a smile on my face.
Continued chapter 48
LESEGO.

The kids are very excited to be going to

school in a car and with their dad. Never did
I think that going to Durban would change
my life in a way I never thought was
possible. You read about things like these
in romance novels and watch them on
romantic movies on TV but here it
happened to me and I’m still in shock and
happy too. The only sad thing is that my
family burned some of their school books
but at least they do have books that stay at
school. Bonga and Celeste came too to see
the kids to school.

This family is something else because the

closeness and tightness I saw between
sicelo and his brother’s in-law is something
amazing. I wonder what it is going to be like
to meet the rest of the family?. I’m scared
though because what if they don’t like me
or like that sicelo loves a woman who
already has kids?. God please let them like
me and make them see that I love their son
and I want to be part of their family.

Sicelo did not judge me or look at me in a

different way when I told him what I did. In
fact it made us closer. I’m glad that I told
him my deepest darkest secrets because I
know my family would have used that
against me. I hope they won’t cause
problems and sabotage my happiness. I’m
sure mapaseka told them what happened
and added flowers too to make herself look
innocent and I’m pretty sure too that they
told that good for nothing sperm donor
thuto. I swear to God if he tries anything I
will kill him myself.

“ baby? We are here. ” my man says. I look

at him and smile. The back passenger door
opens and it’s bonga. He unbuckles their
seats and they step out. We step out too.
The parents at school dropping their kids off
are looking at me surprised and shocked
because they didn’t except this. Well
neither did I sisters. Sicelo takes both of
their hands and walks them to the gate. He
pecks both of their cheeks. I do too “ are
you going to pick us again daddy ” kamo
asks. “ I am princess. Now go to school. ”
she smiles. Her friends call her over and
she goes to them and forgets about us.
Kagiso fist bumps with his dad his uncle
and Celeste too waves at me and off he
goes to his friends too getting inside the
school gates.

“ just like that they have forgotten about us.

” their dad says. We laugh.

“ lesego? ” I turn and see that it’s the

principal who is calling my name. Fuck me.
“ principal Mabuza hi. ”
He looks at me then looks at my man
bonga and Celeste then looks at the cars
and you can see confusion on his face. “ hi
I’m principal Mabuza and you are? ” he
says wanting to shake his hand. What the
hell is this man doing?

“ I’m her husband. ” sicelo says and the

principal looks at my left hand. “ principal
eyes here don’t look at her. ” he says
snapping his fingers.

“ you got married? Wow. Why are you not

inside now working? ” he asks me. “ I told
her to quit that’s why. There is something
we want to discuss with you principal. Your
office? ” what?

“ oh yes sure. I’m sad to see you go lesego

but should you need your job back you
know where to find me. Gentleman follow
me. ” bonga and sicelo look at each other. “
get in the car. We will be back. ” he kisses
me and they follow the principal.

“ what did you say to sicelo and what did

the principal do to you? ” what?

“ What do you mean Celeste? ”

“ the only way sicelo would want to talk with

the principal in private is because he wants
to talk about something the principal did to
you and I think it’s a bad thing. Now what
did he do to you?. ” she asks me.

“ oh my God Celeste.” I tell her what I told

sicelo. “ I’m sorry you went through that
lesego. The principal knew of your situation
and he took advantage of that. Sicelo
doesn’t let anyone get away with hurting the
people he loves. ”

“ wow.. Will they hurt him? ” she laughs.

“I’m asking not because I care but because
I don’t want anything bad to happen to
sicelo and bonga.” I tell her.

“ nah they won’t hurt him. If they wanted to

he wouldn’t be here. ” she says. Wow. We
wait for almost two hours and then they
come back laughing.

“ let’s go guys have some breakfast and

buy furniture for your house baby. ” he says
when they get in the car. Celeste goes with
bonga and we drive off.

“ What happened in there? What did you

want to talk to him about? ” He chuckles. “
only that he must stop doing what he is
going to other women who are desperate
and in need of jobs or else I would find all
the women he has done the same thing he
did to you and get them to open a case
against him. ”
“ thank you baby. I hope he knows you
meant it cause you did right?. ” he takes my
hand. “ I meant every word mama. I could
never joke about something so sensitive
like this. ” I nod.

“ where are we having breakfast and where

are we going to buy furniture? ”

“ you will decide. We can look at those

furniture shops. ” he says.

“ I was thinking that maybe I could ask your

sister to help me decorate the house cause
I have no idea how to decorate our big
house. I wouldn’t know where to start. ”

“ oh that’s a great idea baby. Between you

her and Sims they can make your house be
as beautiful as you want. Lets have
breakfast first then we will call her. I was
hoping you guys can meet first before you
talk on the phone but it’s okay. ” he says.
“ do you think she will like me? ” his face
beams

“ she’s going to love you. She’s is an

amazing person. You’ll see when you meet
her. ”

“ baby who is khanyo? ” he looks at me.

“ it’s Lungi’s name given by her in-laws.

She’s nokukhanya. They said she brought
light and love in mbuso's life. She’s his light.
”

“ wow that’s beautiful. ”

“ it is mama. I wonder what my aunts will

name you ” he chuckles.

“ as long as it will have a beautiful meaning.

” I tell him. “ sicelo? ”
“ mama? ” my heart melts when he calls me
that.

“ why didn’t we continue having sex? ”

“ are you horny love? ” he asks me

seriously. I blush so profusely like everyone
heard what he just asked me. “ baby man. ”
I laugh.

“ well we didn’t fuck each other cause the

things I want to do to you will wake the kids
and they will catch us in a very
uncompromising position and because I
want to fuck the shit out of you and make
you lose yourself in me. I want us to be
alone so I know how loud I can make you
scream and beg for my dick. Take off your
underwear ” I press my thighs together as
he says that.

“ we are almost at the mall baby. ” he calls

bonga.
“ brother? ”

“ brother I’m going to park at the

underground parking. We will find you
inside. You'll tell us where you are at? ”

“ couldn’t you wait at least until you got

home? ” he says laughing.

“ shut up fool. My woman wants me. ” he

laughs then hangs up.

“ I can’t believe you said that to him. How

am I going to look at him sicelo? ”

“ The same way you have always done.

You smile. ” he grins. I shake my head. We
arrive at the mall and be goes to park at the
underground parking lot. He looks at me
and smiles.
“ Take off your panties mama. ” my God I
get wet. I lift off my butt and take them off.
He takes them and sniffs them. “ you smell
so sweet. I can’t wait to taste you. ” he
says.

“ will anyone see us? ” he presses a button

and my seat leans back and laying flat on
my back and the seat moves backward too.
“ the windows are dark. No one will see us.
We will see them though. Lift your dress up
and spread open those legs for me. ” I do
as he says and I know he’s going to see
that I am wet. He locks the doors then gets
up jumps I lift up my legs cause I see what
he wants to do. He kneels between my legs
and puts my legs on his shoulders. “ thank
God for German SUV machines and space.
He hands run up and down my thighs and I
shudder.

“ are you ready for me mama? ” I shake my

head no the yes and he chuckles. His
hands go up and he cups my pussy. I
moan. “ you look so beautiful baby. ” he
says then uses the pad of his thumbs and
opens my vulva. He leans forward then
blows air in my pussy and I moan. “ sicelo ”
I say then swallow.

“ yes mama. Tell me what you want and

need. ”

“ I want you. I need you please. ”

“ where does it ache? ”

“ sicelo? ” I say frustrated and he laughs.

“ tell me mama or I won’t be able to help

you. ” he says with his amazing smile

“ it aches here ” I point at my pussy.

“ tell me where it aches baby. ” his mouth is
very close to my pussy cause I can feel his
warm breath.

“ my pussy… . Please!. ”

“ you don’t have to beg me baby. I am at

your service. ” he says and I feel his whole
mouth on my pussy and he muffs me. “ yes!
Oh God yes! ” I say and out my hand on his
head. His tongue goes in and out as it fucks
me so sweet and good. It moves in it moves
out. On my clit around it and I move my
waist and fuck his face. He muffs me like
it’s the last thing he wants to do before he
goes to eat his other meal. I moan around it
and I move my waist and fuck his face. He
muffs me like it’s the last thing he wants to
do before he goes to eat his other meal. I
moan scream and hold his head tight and
call his name. I can feel his beard is wet
with my juices and it’s pricking me so good
on the inside of my thighs. His hands hold
me down and tight and the onslaught on
and in my pussy by his mouth continues
and I feel my orgasm coming.

I want to tell him that I am going to come

but the only words that come out of my
mouth is me saying his name over and over
again. My blood is flowing in all directions
my nipples are hard and I want his dam
dick in me. He groans and I hear shuffling
of his belt and oh God that big juicy thick
dick I saw makes me lose my mind and my
body begins to shake. Sicelo quickly stops
grabs my thighs and pulls me down to him
and I realise his pants are not there. I feel
something hard on my opening and I moan
loud. “ sicelo I’m going to come. I’m close ” I
tell him panting. He rubs his dick up and
down on my opening groaning and oh God
if he can just out it in and fuck me.

He doesn’t instead he lays on top of me as

uncomfortable as it is he doesn’t seem to
mind. His dick presses directly on my clit
and I moan and close my eyes. He claims
my mouth kisses me deeply and thrusts his
hips and his dick is pressing hard on my clit
so when it moves it causes a wonderful
friction. Our tongues and lips dance as we
continue to give what our bodies crave the
most. His hands go under me and he grabs
both ass cheeks and continues to thrust.
My legs shake violently and I can’t hold on
anymore. I let go and let my climax take
over as I moan his name in his mouth over
and over gain. He let’s my mouth go and
buries his head in my neck and groans
deep. He stills then I feel his warm seed on
my stomach as he cums until he finishes. I
am so wet and my clothes are at too and
his also too.

“ mapholoba? ”

“ yebo mama? ” ( yes? ) he says.

“ I want more. The kids are at school we
have the whole house to ourselves. ”

“ you want my dick in you? ”

“ please?. ”

“ let’s go home. ”

“ what about bonga and Celeste? ”

“ they will be fine baby. ” he kisses me the

gets off me. Wipes his seed with my
underwear then pulls my dress down. He
tucks himself in and buckles his belt but you
can still see how hard he is. He starts the
engine and off we drives home. We get
there in 10 minutes. He parks I get out
taking my hand back. Open the door then
run to our bedroom and take off my clothes.
He comes in after me and locks our
bedroom door and I help him out of his
clothes too and my man is drop dead
gorgeous.

“ oh fuck?!. ” he says

“ what? What’s wrong now? ” I whine.

“ we have no condoms!. Fuck!. ”

“ we don’t need them sicelo.. I trust you and

I know you will never put my life in danger. I
want to feel all of you with nothing between
us. ” he picks me up I wrap my legs around
him and we kiss deeply and passionately.

“ I can’t wait. I have to be inside of you. I

wanted out first time to be something you
will always remember but.. ” he says
between kisses

“ Stop. Talking and fuck me ” I tell him

He lays me down with him and we continue
to kiss. His hands are on my ass and I love
the way he is grabbing them. “ put me in
you ” he says.

I snake my hand between us and grab him

and he groans. I pump him up and down
tighter and tighter and he curses. I point his
proud member on my hole and wait for him
to thrust in. My heart is beating so fast
because I can’t wait to feel him in me.

“ Are you ready? ” he asks me I nod. “ look

at me ” he says I do. He thrust in a little and
I am panting like a dog in heat.

I pull my hand off and wait for him. “ focus

on me and our kiss okay. ” I nod. He kisses
me slowly and I focus on that. I didn’t know
looking at your man straight in the eyes
when you are being intimate can be one of
the most sexiest things. He thrusts in and
gets his soft velvet mushroom head in and
we both moan. I feel my muscles expanding
with pain but it feels damn good. “ you
okay? ”

“ sicelo?!. ” why is he talking?. He chuckles

then thrusts in hard and deep and I scream
fuck that did hurt. “ you okay? ”

“ Aha ” I whisper. He almost pulls out but

his dick is still in then he thrusts deep again
and I cry out. It feels so good with a little bit
of pain. He keeps thrusting in and out
slowly and deeply but I want more. I don’t
want him to handle me like I’m an egg.
Does this man remember when was the last
I had a dick in me? Or maybe he is afraid
that I will freak out if he gets a little rough?.

“ baby….ah ” he thrusts deeply and we both

moan. “ yes baby? ”

“ I want it all. Don’t hold back please. Just

fuck me!. ” he doesn’t say anything but lifts
his upper body up. Hands on either side of
my head. Pulls out the thrusts in hard and
deep and I cry out “ yes!. ” his thrusts get
more and more hard and he fucks me.

My boobs bounce up and down as he fucks

the living day lights out of me. He grabs my
boobs with both his hands and plays with
my nipples I bite my bottom lip to keep me
from screaming. He hands go down and
grab my waist lifting my ass off the bed. I
put my hands on the headboard and push
back on him and he pushes in. It feels so
good and wonderful and the way he is
controlling my movement and his thrusts is
the most erotic thing I have ever seen or
experienced. He knocks off my breath with
every thrust and I love every moment. I
come calling his name but he doesn’t stop
he continues to fuck me senselessly. I
didn’t know sex can be so amazing and
enjoyable. I love sex!.
Sicelo is the only man who has ever given
me an Orgasm and I know he is always
going to give me more. He pulls his body
down I wrap my arms around his neck and
let our mouths do the talking. I wrap my
legs around his waist and he approves
because he groans and fucks me until my
legs begin to shake again. He is saying
something but I can’t hear what he is saying
because the greatest feeling I’m having
right now is making me go deaf. His pubic
hair rubbing my pubic bone the way his dick
feels tightly around me hitting every nerve
drives me crazy. I grab his tight beautiful
ass and feel it contracting and expanding
on my hands and I moan. He thrusts harder
still flexing his hips pressing deeper and
that makes me cum hard!. My vagina
muscles contract around him and I scream
and call his name. He pulls back then
thrusts in again fast then he groans deep
and I feel him spilling his seed deep in me
then I feel his whole body weight on me. I
love it.

We hold each other tightly and listen to the

beats of our hearts. I close my eyes then I
feel him pulling out. He chuckles then turns
me then kneels. He is not tired? Doesn’t he
need to prepare himself for another round?.
The moment I get on all fours he thrusts in
hard and fucks me so good I regret asking
him to fuck me. He fucks me until I ask him
to stop cause I am good but he makes me
climax two more times before he cums and
I blackout and sleep.
CHAPTER 49

SICELO.

She looks so beautiful and thoroughly

fucked. What we both shared just now is
something I have never experienced
before. I want to wake her up and fuck her
again but I can’t because her body needs to
rest. She hasn’t had sex in a very long time
and her body has to get used to it again. I
love this woman and I hope her and luh
would get close and because sisters like
me and mbuso. I go take a quick shower
then go to the kitchen. We really need
furniture in this house. We can’t live like this
like how mbuso and luh lived in their empty
house.

I sit down then take my phone send Celeste

a message to being us food then I call dad.
“ seen? ”

“ Mapholoba. Unjani? ” ( dad how are you?

)

“ good seun. How are you?. ”

“ I could be better. ”

“ talk to me.. ”
“ I met this womam dad. Her name is
lesego Motaung and she’s from Bethlehem.
She has two kids. A boy kagiso he’s 8 nd a
girl kamohelo she’s 7. I love her. I love
them. All of them. She has had a rough and
hard life baba and her family had a hand on
it. I have found her baba. ”

“ Ngwende called me to come and see him

and he told me you have found your
soulmate. He did say she has kids too. So I
guess I am a grandfather. ” he laughs.

“ you are. She is amazing baba and you are

going to love her. She’s a great mother and
a loving person. ”

“ I don’t doubt it. You sound happy and

different son. I’m happy for you sicelo. But
you haven’t told me what is troubling you. ”
my dad knows me so well.
“ I wanted to do things the right way baba
but when I saw how much it hurt them when
I took them back home it killed me. I have
never cried like I did when they asked me
not to take them back. I know I cried when I
found ulungile but this was different dad. I
got to experience what it was to be a
parent. ” I tell dad how lesego lived.
Everything she told me and what happened
when I dropped them off.

“ She is so young to have lived such a life.

What kind of parents are these son?. I
thought we had finally gotten rid of the
mazibuko's but here are the motaung's
also!. ” he sounds frustrated. “ traditionally
what you did was wrong and you disrespect
their family but I understand why you did it
and if I was in your shoes son I would have
done the same thing. Sicelo you are a
father now. Your past has to be the past
including Zama. You cannot keep calling
that girl cause that will hurt maMotaung.
What you did is enough and now she has to
stand on her own two feet. ”

“ I know dad and I will. There’s someone

who owes me a favour and I will ask them
to give Zama a job.”

“ You gave her security. A home and a car

and that is enough. Mbuso got her a job.
Call her and tell her it’s the last time the
both of you are going to talk or you do
something for her because you have met
your wife. It will hurt her but she needs to
know that it is over. You and her are never
going to get back together. MaMotaung has
been through a lot sicelo and what she
needs now it’s lots of love. Tell me again.
What do you want me your father to help
you with because I know you boys are
capable of doing things on your own. So
this must be important. ” he says.
“ I understand baba and I will do what you
have advised me to do. Baba I want to
marry her as soon as possible. I want to
send a letter to her family and ask for her
hand in a marriage and pay whatever price
they want as long as they will be all living
with me. I want us to do everything they are
going to ask. I don’t want to kill them
although God knows how much I want to kill
each and everyone one of them but we
can’t. I want them to see how lesego and
the kids lives are going to change. I want
them to regret and be sorry for treating her
the way they have been doing. ”

“ I hear you son. We will send a letter after

the weekend because we have to go to
Pietermaritzburg. You remember that they
have to do a cleansing to name the child
Buhle aborted.”

“ I had forgotten. Have they already left?. ”

“ I think they are leaving tomorrow. When
will you come all of you? ”

“ do you think it’s a good idea to come with

everyone because I don’t want to take the
attention away from them. ”

“ son you know very well they are doing this

because luh is pregnant and they don’t
want the other child to cause harm on luh
and her pregnancy. If it wasn’t for that I
doubt they would be having a cleansing and
we both know they will not at all mind but if
you feel that you should bring them to the
farm first then do that. ”

“ I think we will drive down on Friday

afternoon then we will go on Saturday to
bab Mnguni's house. I want the kids to see
the farm and animals. ”

“ you don’t know how happy I am to hear

you sound so happy son. I can’t wait to
meet my grandkids and future daughter in-
law. ”

“ thank you dad. I can’t wait for you to meet

them too. Baba? ”

“ ndodana. ”.( son)

“ I want the kids to use my name. Our

surname baba. ”

“ Sicelo. Are you sure about that because

the family paid the fine and the kids use
their surname right? ”

“ He paid one for kagiso and not kamo.

Both the kids use her surname. She didn’t
change it after he paid the fine. Baba I don’t
want him anywhere near kamo. I will kill him
dad I swear. ”

“ We have to make sure that kamo never

knows this. I will talk to your uncles and
Ngwende about the way we have to go
about to get the kids to use our surname.
You are doing the right thing about the kids
to use our surname because all the kids
you will have with her will use your surname
and it wouldn’t be fair to kagiso and kamo
to use their mother’s surname. ”

“ thank you dad. I was scared to ask you

because I thought you would refuse. ”

“ I once told you sicelo that my children’s

happiness is my number one priority and
my happiness too. We will find a way to sort
everything out son. Don’t worry. ”

“ Ok mapholoba. Enough about me how are

you? ”

“ I’m good. I met someone though.” We

both laugh.

“ You did?. Who is she? ”

“ She’s a widower like me. She has three
daughters and she lives here ”

“ Wow dad. I’m happy for you. Have you

gone out and met her family?. ”

“ We have. She’s a good woman and her

kids are good too. ”

“ I didn’t expect that. Have you told luh? ”

he sighs.

“ I haven’t. I don’t know how she’s going to

take it cause with her it’s different sicelo.
Your mom died when she was young and
even though she has her pictures she
doesn’t remember her and I don’t know if
she will accept Agnes or what. You
remember her and I hope when you meet
her you would see that’s shes a good
woman.”
“ I don’t think luh will have a problem as
long as she makes you happy then we will
not have a problem with that and honestly
dad you have been single for years. It’s
time you find someone to make you happy
too.”

“ thank you son. I will talk to luh about her

after she has given birth. I can’t wait to see
her kids too. ” we both laugh.

“ Me too dad. I’m going to spoil them and

drive mbuso crazy. ” we laugh.

“ Preston told you what they are having

right? ”

“ he did but ruined the surprise for everyone

about the twins. ”

“ he was excited and drank too much wine ”

“ do we know who is the snitch? ”

“ you don’t think it’s Preston do you? ”

“ I don’t know dad. I asked Celeste to find

out information about him and she hasn’t
found out anything. ”

“ mbuso won’t let anyone close to luh

without checking him out first. I’ll talk to him.
”

“ What if he’s not who we think he is?. ”

“ sicelo that boy spends most of the time

with your sister alone when mbuso is
working and has meetings in Durban. If he’s
not who we think he is then he could easily
hurt her. Ey sicelo for his sake I hope you
are wrong son because when I investigated
him it showed that he comes from a
Christian family and both his parents are
retired nurses. Ask Celeste if she has found
out anything more about him. I’ll talk to
mbuso. ”

“ ok dad. ”

“ sure seun.” We hang up. I hope my uncles

and dad will find a way for me to be able to
change the kids surname. I could adopt
them then change their surnames but I
want to do it traditionally first. I want then to
be recognized by my ancestors and be
protected by them. I may have not birthed
them but to me they are mine in all ways
and I want my family to know that also.

I look at the time and it’s 11 am. She is still

napping and I’m hungry. I wonder what is
taking Celeste and bonga this long to come
back with food. I call mbuso he picks up
when about to hang up.

“ Mapholoba ”
“ Phakathwayo. ”

“ How are you brother? ”

“ strong and better than yesterday. ”

“ good. How are the kids and Mrs? ” I

chuckle.

“ she’s napping good and the kids are at

school. They are good man. How are you
guys? ”

“ ok man. We good but I want these people

out of my house sicelo. ” I laugh.

“ How far are they?. ”

“ good thing is they split jobs. Others are

almost done with the bathrooms and the
kitchen is almost done. I think by tomorrow
they should all be done and out of here. I
hope she is done with renovations. ” I
chuckle

“ how is she? ”

“ she’s outside with Preston

Sponsored
he picks up when about to hang up.

“ Mapholoba ”

“ Phakathwayo. ”

“ How are you brother? ”

“ strong and better than yesterday. ”

“ good. How are the kids and Mrs? ” I

chuckle.

“ she’s napping good and the kids are at

school. They are good man. How are you
guys? ”
“ ok man. We good but I want these people
out of my house sicelo. ” I laugh.

“ How far are they?. ”

“ good thing is they split jobs. Others are

almost done with the bathrooms and the
kitchen is almost done. I think by tomorrow
they should all be done and out of here. I
hope she is done with renovations. ” I
chuckle

“ how is she? ”

“ she’s outside with Preston you want to talk

to her? ”

“ I’ll call her. Thank you for giving Zama a

job. How did you know though? ”

“ when I saw you with lesego yesterday and

the kids I knew she’s the one for you and
you can’t mess that up by busy talking to
Zama. So I asked luh to call her and find
out how she’s doing and she told her that
she’s struggling to find a job and she’s still
waiting for you cause you promised her that
you will find something. I called someone I
know and asked him if he could give Zama
a job and he did. Since she’s going to
graduate next year he offered her a job I’m
marketing. I told her it’s from you you’re the
one who asked me to call her. She will be
fine. ”

“ thanks brother. How did dad know? ”

“ man you know him. He does his own

investigations. ” we laugh.

“ I will call her and tell her it’s the last time I
will be helping her and tell her about
lesego. ”
“ brother what you had with zama wasn’t a
relationship so you don’t owe her any
explanations. I know you did her wrong but
you have apologized and made it up to her.
The money you gave her gave her a
chance to start a brand new life which is
what she is doing. You have to stop calling
her and finding out what is going on her life
cause when you keep doing that you are
not breaking ties with her. You will hurt
lesego in some way when you keep doing
that.. She’s your past and let her stay there
and move on.”

“ thanks for doing that and the advise man.

I appreciate it. ”

“ how are we going to deal with lesego’s

family?. ”

“ I want them to regret ever hurting her. I

want them to see how happy she is going to
be. I want then to see her flourishing. I don’t
want them to die but they must suffer like
how they made her suffer. Have you found
out anything a out them? ”

“ still checking them out. ”

“ Where is that police guy? ”

“ He’s in Newcastle now. I hope Alex will be

able to sort him out but we have to expect
his call just in case. ” he says

“ yeah. I can’t believe we have a snitch

around us.”

“ and we don’t know who it is.”

“ do you think it could be Preston? ” I ask

him.

“ I’ll kill that little bitch if it’s him. I

investigated him and he comes from a
Christian family. ”
“ Dad said the same thing but Celeste said
there’s nothing about Preston other than he
came to Ladysmith and opened his surgery.
He is not originally from here. ”

“ Fuck. Which means it’s either he knew

that we were going to investigate him when
we contacted him to set up an appointment
or someone is helping him to cover his
tracks or maybe he just wants nothing to do
with his family that’s why he moved here. ”

“ it could be but for now we have to be

careful. You should not leave her alone with
him anymore until we find out the truth and
we should keep an eye on him. ”

“ I will. I’m going to check the whole house

and see it there are any hidden cameras
and listening devices whilst they are still
outside. I hope we are wrong man. ”
“ If it’s not him then who could it be telling
the police cause he is the only outside in
the familyr? ”

“ man I don’t know but we will get to the

bottom of it. I have to call Celeste and get
her here. When are you guys coming?. ”

“ we will see you on Saturday but we are

going to come Friday. I want the kids to
meet dad and see the farm. I can’t wait for
luh to meet her. ”

“ She’s excited too and she can’t wait to

meet all of them ” he says. Bonga and
Celeste ring the door bell. “ brother Celeste
is here. I’ll tell her you want to see here. ”

“ ok man we will talk. ”

“ Sure brother. ” we hang up. I open for

them and they brought so much food.
“ thanks guys. I am so hungry. ” they laugh.

“ sex tends to do that especially when you

fuck someone when your didn’t eat. ” bonga
says.

“ Celeste mbuso wants you in Ladysmith as

in yesterday. ”

“ well then I better go. Are you staying? ”

she asks bonga?

“ you need me? ”

“ I’m good man. The guys are here should

anything happen. ” I tell him.

“ tell mbuso to send someone to come and

pick me up tomorrow. ”

“ ok. Later boys ” she leaves.

“ Why are you staying behind? ”

“ I can’t leave you here alone for now. I will
go tomorrow. ”

“ Thanks man. ”

“ so how was it? ” he wiggles his eyebrows.

“ Shut up fool. She will hear you!. ” we

laugh. I look behind me and she’s not here.
“ man I want go wake her up then fuck her
until she can’t walk. ” we laugh

“ Damn that good?!. ”

“ Heaven brother. Heaven. ” we fist bump

and laugh.

“ Why does mbuso want to see Celeste? ” I

tell him what we think and he doesn’t look
shocked. “ I did ask you guys if we can trust
the good doctor and you all said we can. If
it’s not him then who? ”
“ what if it’s Victor? What if he is mad that
we forced him to kill his daughter? ” he
says.

“ shh not so loud. Victor? No!. He helped us

with getting his brother’s DNA and mbuso
took him to see his grandson. I don’t think
he can be that stupid again. ”

“ he did once and he can do it again. He

has nothing now sicelo. He killed the
daughter he never knew he had and Lungi
is with her real family and what does he
have?. A grandson only? ”

“ man we are being paranoid right now. Let

them investigate then we take out the
person who is messing with our family. ”

“ ok then but I think we should take Preston

roughen him up a bit and let him take a lie
detector test.. That way we can be one
hundred percent sure that he is not the
snitch.” I shake my head.

“ And if he’s not? ”

“ we will say sorry. Let’s rather be than

sorry. ”

“ Ok. I agree do it but let mbuso know just

in case if Preston thinks we are on to him. ”

“ Tomorrow I’m on it. ”

“ man we can’t get peace in this family. ”

“ I know and it sucks. ”

“ we will get answers though. ” I tell him.

“ I’m thinking of proposing to Sims. I talked

to dad and asked him to write a letter to her
family. ” what?
“ wow man that’s great. I am so happy for
you but you don’t look Happy what’s
wrong?. ”

“ It’s mom. I don’t think she likes Sims. ”

“ what? Why? ”

“ because she has kids and the kids are not

mine. ”

“ Fuck man that’s bad. Have you tried to

talk to her? ”

“ man I did. I told her that I could have had

kids too of only that bitch didn’t abort my
child. When I told them what I wanted to do
she got up and left. ”

“ talk to her and find out what’s wrong. Your

mom is a loving person bonga. Find out
what’s bothering her about Sims and
maybe she will open up. ”
“ I will but what if she refuses to accept
Sims and her kids?. What am I going to do?
”

“ If she tells you that she doesn’t want you

to marry Sims what will you say or do?. ”

“ I’ll respectfully tell her it’s not her decision

and I will marry her whether she agrees or
not. I love her sicelo and our kids. She will
just have to get used to it because she is
going nowhere. ”

“ talk to her brother maybe she is scared

about something. ” he nods. “ if my aunt
tells me she doesn’t like lesego man I
wouldn’t even care. As long as luh and dad
accept and love her and the kids that’s all
that matters to me and to hell with everyone
else.” We laugh.
“ I hear you man. I will talk to her. ” he
sighs. This thing is weighing heavily on him.
If maGumede doesn’t like Sims it could
cause problems between luh and Sims
because Sims will feel that luh is the
favourite and loved daughter in law whilst
she’s not and we can’t have that. I will have
to talk to mbuso to talk to his mom.

# SorryNotEdited.

I hope things between my brother and lesego

will work out and they will be a family because
from what he told me about her she sounds like
she is an amazing person. My husband is on his
way back and I guess he will fill me in about
how things went in Bethlehem. I undress then
go to bathroom and have a cold shower. It cools
my body down because I feel so hit and it
doesn’t help that it’s way hot outside too. I stay
in shower until I feel like I’m a human again
then carefully step out. I

take the towel and dry myself. Then go to the

closet find mbuso T-shirt and wear it. I take our
clothes out from the closet and begin packing
them because we have to leave tomorrow
morning and go to my in-laws because we have
a ceremony we have do before I give birth. I’m
honestly happy that buhle and her parents are
out of our lives even though my family did a
sloppy job when they got rid of them. Paul
called me after mbuso left when I heard it was
his voice on the phone I hanged up and blocked
his number.

I keep going to the closet and back again to our

bedroom because I can’t carry many clothes at
once. I could ask sis nonto to help me but I want
to do it myself. I’m carry mbuso’s shoes when
they slip and fall. Fuck I could leave them there
but I could trip on them and fall. I place the
other three on the bed then hold on to the bed
and bend down and take the one that fell. “ Are
you done packing? ” it’s Preston. He’s been
here the whole time and I can’t remember when
was the last time he spent a night a his place. I
like him and all but frankly I think I made a
mistake but giving him a room at out house
cause it seems like he has moved in and I don’t
like that. No I know I don’t like that now. I take
the damn shoe them slowly stand and turn to
look at Preston. I almost gasp in shock but
something tells to pretend that I didn’t see what
I saw“ almost. Why? ” I ask him.

“ because you have been here in your bedroom

for too long and I was beginning to get worried
” he says like he’s very concerned. “ I was just
packing our clothes for the week. Are you
coming with us? ” I look at him?. He shakes his
head. “ I don’t think I am mbuso's favourite
person right now and I think it’s best if I stay
clear from him. ” good idea.

“ well you basically spoiled our surprise when

you told everyone about me carrying twins.
You took that moment away from us Preston. It
was wrong of you to say that! ” he sighs and sits
on my bed. “ don’t sit on my bed. Sit on the
couch. ” he looks at me surprised by the tone of
my voice. “ you are angry at me too?. I’m sorry
I did okay. I think it’s the wine that made me
just blurt it out. ” he says and again I’m worried
about him blabbing stuff out.

“ hmmm it makes me wonder if you have not

spilled our secrets to other people we don’t
know about. ” he gasps at me shocked. “ you
think that I have told other people things about
your family?. ” I stop packing try to fold my
arms on too my babies then look at him. “ well
have you?. I mean you had four glasses of wine
Preston then you blurted it out. If four glasses of
wine can make you spill secrets then imagine if
you were given something stronger?!. ”

“ well I have known this family for a few

months and yes I have heard things and didn’t
see many of them because the guys always
exclude me but even if they didn’t I wouldn’t
tell anyone anything. I thought you knew me
better than that. ” he sounds hurt and I still don’t
buy it. “ do we really know you Preston other
than you are a doctor and your family disowned
you because you are gay? ” he gets up from the
couch looking at me nervously.“ I think it’s best
to go back to my place before we both say
something that we will regret. ” he says.

“ what are you hiding Preston? Who are you? ”

he looks at me and I feel the hair on the back of
my neck stand. He won’t hurt me can he? I’m
not alone in the house and there’s security
outside. If I scream they would come in here
running. “ I’m going to go. I’ll see you.” He
quickly leaves and I breath out deeply. I wasn’t
even aware that I was holding my breath. I sit
down and my heart is beating fast. Could I be
wrong about Preston? And possibly have ruined
our friendship?. I don’t know but my gut says
otherwise.

I have to tell mbuso what I’m thinking and

suspecting. He will know what to do and deal
with it but one thing I know for sure is he would
never let anyone close to me without checking
them out first. I take my phone leave the
bedroom and go to the kitchen. Nonto is coming
and the house smells amazing. “ what are we
having for dinner? ”I ask her.

“ it’s a surprise luh. ” she says smiling. “

Preston told me to tell you that he’s leaving and
he doesn’t know when he will be back but he
left a number here… for a doctor who will take
over from him. ” what? what is he running away
from?. “ok sis nonto I’ll call the doctor thank
you. ” the door opens and it’s my husband.
Nonto leaves the kitchen. He stands behind me
then hugs me breathing out deeply.

“ love? Are you okay? ” he kisses my hair

forehead then turns the chair around and kisses
me deeply. Something is wrong. I push him off
me lightly “ talk to me. What’s wrong? ”

“ are you hungry? ” he asks me. I shake my

head no. “ let’s go to our bedroom and I’ll tell
you. ” he says. “ phakathwayo sit down and let
me plate up for you then we will go to our
bedroom okay?. Let me feed you first. ” he goes
to wash his hands and I get up and plate for him
then put the food down in front of him. I take
his fork roll the spaghetti around the fork and
brings it to his mouth. “ open ” I tell him. He
smiles and my heart melts. He opens his mouth
and I feed my husband he feeds me too but I’m
the one eating the most of the food. We are just
silent willing water and enjoying the spaghetti
and meatballs. Nonto outdone herself cause the
cheese just melts in your mouth. “ do you want
more? ” he asks me.. “ no boo. I’m full. ” I drink
my water and burp then giggle.

“ Then you are going to fart the whole night ”

he says chuckling and I giggle. He takes the
plates back then we go to our bedroom. I sit on
the edge of the bed as he takes off his clothes. “
wanna shower with me? ”. “ I did an hour ago. ”
he looks at me legs and bites his lips. Heat
creeps up from my neck to my face. He still
makes me blush. He goes to the bathroom and
showers. I think things didn’t go as planned
between my brother and lesego. That’s why
mbuso is like this. He must be worried about
them. I look at the time and it’s almost 7:30pm.
I’ll call sicelo tomorrow. I remove the
continental pillows from the bed and duvet then
leave only the light sheets and sleeping pillows.

I undress then get in bed. I don’t know if I

should talk to mbuso now about Preston or wait
till tomorrow. He comes in smelling really good
and gets in bed behind me. “ how are my kids
treating you? ” I turn and look at him. I palm his
cheek and he kisses it “ talk to me mbuso. What
happened there?. ”

“ The woman your brother loves had a hard life.

Her family is shit and they treated her and her
kids like shit love. The kids were crying and
begging him not to take them back. They
wanted to live with him. When we dropped
them off love it was hard. I have never seen
your brother crying but today I did. It was hard.
He has this amazing connection with kagiso the
eldest. The boy loves him like he is his own
father and kamo is the sweetest little angel.
They love him. ” I smile as I watch mbuso
talking about the kids cause he’s smiling too.

“ I’m glad my brother has finally found his one

true love. I think the kids have all of you
wrapped around their little fingers. ” I say
giggling. He pecks my lips. “ you are going to
love all of them. Lesego is not used to having
people close to her love and she’s going to need
you. Both her and sicelo are going to need you
baby.” I nod.

“ I’ll be there for them boo. I promise. I can’t

believe he met her like a few days ago and his
life changed drastically just like that. It’s
amazing how we meet our soul mates. ” I tell
him. “ are they going to come to
Pietermaritzburg for the cleansing ceremony?. ”

“ I think so. They love the house you found why

didn’t you furnish it? ”

“ I didn’t because it’s her home and she’s the

one who is supposed to choose what she wants
in her house and decorate it the way she wants. I
couldn’t take that away from her. ” he nods. “
what’s really bothering you?. ” he sighs and
looks up in the ceiling. “ seeing lesego’s kids
made me think about what kind of man just
leaves his kids just like that and not care what
happens to them and their mother. How does he
live with himself everyday and he calls himself
a man?. I could never live my life without you
and our kids. ” he turns and looks at me again. “
I will always protect you no matter what. From
anyone and anything that threatens our
happiness. I will die protecting you even from
the other side. The thought of anyone hurting
you and our kids makes me want to take you
away from anyone so they can’t hurt you. I
never want to experience what sicelo
experienced today because it was really hard to
watch. ”

“ I know you would do that for me for us. Thank

you for being there for my brother because I
don’t know what he would have done without
you not being there. ” he brushes my stomach. “
we are family luh. Don’t thank me. I will go out
for everyone you love. He’s my brother too. ” I
smile. Now is the time to tell him about Preston
but he has already had a long day and I don’t
want to add to that. I’ll tell him first thing in the
morning.
“ baby? ” he says.

“ hmm? ”

“ are you okay? you are way too quiet ” I can

tell him what’s bothering me but first I have to
be sure. Did Preston leave because of what I
asked him or he left for good?. I mean sis nonto
said he doesn’t know when he will be back and
left a number for a doctor to check me out?. “ I
am okay I’m just thinking about lesego and the
kids. ”

“ they have us now and they will be fine.” He

says. “ can you tell me more about her? ”

serif">“ I think it’s better that lesego is the

one who will hopefully open up to you and
tell you everything okay? ” I nod. “ when are
we leaving? ” he asks.

“ Tuesday. Tomorrow is the last day for

them to finish the remaining bathrooms. ”
“ we’re you wearing only my T-shirt around
them? ”

“ not if I wanted you to kill me. I wore it after

they left.”

“ hmm. Where’s Preston? ” I shift and face

away from him.

“ he went to his place. I don’t know when

he’s going to be back ” he nods. “ did you
guys have a fight or something? ”

“ No we didn’t. I am tired baby. ” I lie and I

can feel his stare on the back of my head.

“ I’ll let it go for now. Tomorrow you’ll tell me

what’s bothering you. Sleep love. ” I turn
and face him. I give him a kiss then lay on
his chest and sleep.

I Pat the bed and it’s empty mbuso is not in

bed and I’m pretty sure he is working. I
really don’t feel like getting out of bed but
I’m hungry and the noise is just driving me
insane. The kitchen is the only thing left
now to be renovated. I want to take a bath
but I can’t coz the last time I tried I almost
slipped and fell. If mbuso wasn’t there I
could have hurt myself and our kids. I
shower slowly get done then wear my
leggings and T-shirt. I leave our bedroom
and greet the workers. I pass by mbuso’s
office and he’s not there. I go to the kitchen
and I see Preston having with mbuso. He’s
back. “ good morning. ”

“ morning luh. ” president says.

“ Morning baby. ” I kiss him. “ I made you a
fruit salad. ” I smile.

“ thank you boo. I’m going to sit outside. ” I

tell him.

“ I will join you. ” Preston says. I look at

mbuso and his phone rings.

“ I’ll join you outside. ” I take my fruit salad

and go to the veranda and sit down. The
wind is blowing so nicely but I’m still feeling
hot.

“ you don’t look good? ”

“ I’m fine. I’m just feeling hot that’s all. I

thought you left? ” I tell him.
“ I did but then I came back because you
think k I’m hiding stuff from you and I’m not.
Running away would mean that I’m hiding
something. ”

“ hmmm. ” I say.

“ I’m going to get my back and check your

blood pressure. When was the last time you
felt the kids moving?. ”

“ this morning when I was showering why? ”

“ and you’re uterus? any pain around your

waist? ” now that he mentions it I did feel
slight pain. “ it was little pain. It comes and
goes. ”

“ Sharp or burning? ” hmmm

“ sharp. ”

“ we need to go to my surgery for a scan.

You’re almost eight months pregnant and
the kids are supposed to be facing
downward now preparing for birth. If not
one or both of them could be abridged. ”

“ what? no!. I want to give natural birth

and it caesarean birth. ”

“ Let’s go now!. ”

“ Let’s wait for mbuso. He will be done with

his call now then we can all go.. ” he looks
at me and smiles and again the hair on the
back of my neck stand. Why the fuck did I
not tell mbuso about what I saw and my
suspicions?.
“ you are going to get up and we are quietly
going to leave this house. If you scream or
try anything stupid I am going to shoot you
and those damn kids you’re carrying. ” he
says and shows me his gun getting up. I
have never been this scared in my life. “ get
up and let’s go. You’ll tell security at the
gate that we are going to get some few
things at the mall. ” I nod then get up and
we leave through the back yard. I tell the
security guys that we are going to the mall
and we drive out.

“ where are you taking me? ” I ask him

“ far away. Where he will never find you. He

doesn’t get to live happily ever after after he
destroyed my family. I am taking you away
from him like how he took her from me. ”
what?
“ he took who away from you? ”

“ you’ll ask him that when we get to our new

place. ” he says and continues to drive.

CHAPTER 50

LUNGI.
We drive until we get to this house at the
location. I have never been on this side of town
but I did look at the direction and the number of
turns he took. I have never been where Preston
lives and it’s going to be my first time here. I
am so scared of the gun he’s holding and
pointing it at me. The house looks okay like
people live in here. He hoots and someone
opens the gate and he drives in I look back and
the gate closes behind us. He locks it. The wall
is so far high that you can’t see beyond it and
through the gate. I wonder who lives here.
“ get out of the car. ” he gets out and roughly
closes the door with a bang. He comes to my
side and opens the door. “ stop pointing that
thing on my stomach Preston.” I tell him as he
roughly yanks me out of the car with my hair. I
scream and try to get his hands off my hair.
“ Don’t you fucken touch me you fucken
animal!. ” he laughs and the guy who closes the
gate joins him and they both laugh looking at
me. “ so this is mbuso's woman. ”the guy says. “
I’m his wife. When mbuso’s finds the both of
you you will regret the day you Preston came
into our lives. ” they laugh like I’m crazy then
Preston drags me to the house. He opens the
door and there’s a woman cooking in the
kitchen. She gives me a very sickening smile
and the hair on my name stands. Who the fuck
is she?. She reeks of evil and she hasn’t even
said anything to me.
“ My! My! My! Aren’t you just beautiful. When
I was pregnant I was never this beautiful.
Pictures and videos don’t do you justice my
dear.” She comes close to me and grabs my
cheek really hard. “ I can’t wait for him to find
you gone. Dead! ”she says and my heart drops.
“ Wait!. We didn’t talk about you killing her. ”
Preston says. She looks at him then gives him a
deadly look. “ plans change. I want to make all
of them suffer!. I am going to kill her but not
before we take out those kids in her. Go and
take her to the room. Everything is prepared. ”
“ Please don’t kill me. I can give you all the
money I have and you will never work a day in
your life. My husband will also give you
whatever you need. Please just let me call him
but please don’t kill me!. ” I beg for my life.
“ I am going to enjoy ripping those kids out of
your stomach and raise them as mine. But first I
have to kill you. I am going to slice your
stomach while your watching” she says then
laughs.
Preston looks at her unbelievably shocked!. No!
No! No!. Not my kids!. “ Preston please don’t
do this! Don’t let her take my kids out of me.
It’s not yet time please!. ” she laughs then slaps
me hard on the face making me bite my inside
cheek and I taste blood. Preston goes to her and
they argue. I look at the door and it’s open. I
don’t waste time I run outside and rush to the
car cause I know they left the key in the
ignition. I am almost to the car when I hear a
gun shot then I feel pain on my shoulder. I
scream and fall down shouting mbuso’s name.
MBUSO.
Luh goes to the veranda with Preston. I guess
they are going to sort their issues out. I told
sicelo to tell Celeste to get here. I go to my
study and take my electric device scanner and
search around the house. I don’t find anything in
the guest bedrooms including his room. I find
listening devices in the kitchen living dining and
lounge. I don’t have listening devices in my
house. I only have cameras in the kitchen
lounge and living room other than outside. I go
to my study search around and there’s a
listening device too and no camera. I go to our
bedroom and search and I’m horrified at what I
find. 4 Listening devices on all around the
bedroom and three small cameras that he
planted where we wouldn’t see. Something tells
me to go to the shower and my worst fears is
confirmed. He has cameras there and listening
devices. I run out of my bedroom not saying
anything because I don’t want Preston to be
alarmed. I go to the veranda and they are gone.
Luh's phone is on the table and the food I
prepared for her. I run to the security gate and
ask the security if he saw luh and he tells me
that they went to the mall. She would never
leave without her phone.
I run to the house and go to my study and watch
the outside camera. I see Preston taking out a
gun and pointing at luh. She stands up and they
get in the car and leave. He played me!. He
fucken played me!. I scream like a mad mad and
throw everything off the table. I take my cell
phone out and call Sicelo. “ marn celeste is
almost there. You’re killing my vibe ” he laughs
“ I need you to come here now. ”
“ What’s wrong? ”
“ Preston took luh while I was talking to you on
the phone. Come now with bonga! ” he hangs
up. I call my father and tell him then hang up.
Now I have to call my father in-law and tell him
that his daughter got kidnapped in her own
home. I dial his number and it rings “ son. How
are you? ”
“ baba I need you to come here. ”
“ what’s wrong mbuso? Is luh about to give
birth?. ” he chuckles.
“ baba u Preston kidnapped ulungile. ”he sighs.
“ I’ll be there. Don’t worry we’ll find her. ” he
hangs up. I sit down and try to collect my
thoughts. I take my car keys and run out to my
car. I drive out and go straight to Preston's
surgery. When I get there there is no sign of
Preston ever been there. Instead I see a new sigh
that says Laundromat. I cannot believe this. I get
out and open the door of the laundromat. “ sho
when did the surgery that was here relocate? ” I
ask a young man.
“ Groot man they relocated the week we started
working here. 3 weeks ago. ” this mother
fucker!. I get out and drive straight home. My
head is spinning cause I have no idea where
Preston could have taken luh. I go through the
kitchen and mapholoba his brother his sister and
frank are all there. Mapholoba gets up and
comes to me. He punches me right on my eye
and I don’t stop him. I know I deserve it.
“ I’m sorry baba ” he is fuming. He looks at me
then pats me in the back. “ we’ll find her. He
outsmarted all of us. He made us believe that he
was this….. Where were you? ” nonto gives me
a frozen veges. I take it and put it on my
stinging eye.
“ I went to his surgery and it’s no longer there.
He moved or closed it 3 weeks ago. Frank. Put
out a bulletin for Preston car. I want them to
search the whole town cause maybe he is hiding
somewhere or they are on the way either to
Durban or Joburg. So get them to watch out. ”
“ Sure boss. ” he says and leaves. I sit down and
put my hands on my head. “ last night luh
wanted to tell me something and I think it was
about Preston but she didn’t. I told her that in
the morning she will tell me exactly what
happened cause nonto said Preston left and said
he doesn’t know when he’s coming back then
the next thing I find him here having breakfast. I
asked him what happened between him and luh
and he just said luh's hormones are driving him
insane. I let it go. ”
“ it’s not your fault son. He fooled all of us but
he will pay!. ” mapholoba says typing on his
phone. “ she’s pregnant taima and I don’t know
why Preston took her and why?!. He could hurt
her and she could give birth before time. ” mah
is busy sniffing and she’s giving me a headache.
“ nonto can you please bring my laptop from my
office. ” she leaves to get it and comes back. I
take it and show them the video then get in my
system and type in Preston's number searching
for his location. It keeps bouncing off then it
says it he is on his way to Newcastle. “ they are
going to Newcastle I have to go there. ” I get up
but mapholoba stops me. “ I think it’s best if
you stay mbuso. You cannot drive in this
condition you’re in. ”
“ that’s my wife he took. I need to be there
when I find her. I swear to God!. I am going to
peel Preston’s skin off and shove his dick down
his throat!. Fuuuuucccckkkkk!. ” I take the glass
that’s next to me and throw it on the fridge. Mah
and nonto run out of the kitchen. “ mbuso calm
down son!. Calm down. ”.
“ I can’t lose her I can’t fucken lose her!. This
was always my biggest fear. Someone
kidnapping her and then kill her. I can never live
without her!. She’s my everything mapholoba.
Her and our kids. I cannot live without them. ”
“I’ll go boss. Stay here in case they are buying
time and want us to chase a dead end. I’ll come
back with her. ” frank says. “ I’ll come with
you. ” luh’s uncle says. I send frank the
coordinates and they leave.
“ boss ” I look up and it’s Celeste. “ Tell me
everything you found out about Preston. ” she
greets them then sits down and takes out her
laptop. “ so I once investigated him and there
was absolutely nothing other than he’s a doctor
and he owns a surgery and works with hospitals.
Then I asked someone to find some information
about him and last night they sent me this. ” she
reads. “ Preston is from kroonstad. He’s a pure
white boy and his parents are hard core racist.
Preston went to wits and studied there and met a
black girl I can’t fucken lose her!. This was
always my biggest fear. Someone kidnapping
her and then kill her. I can never live without
her!. She’s my everything mapholoba. Her and
our kids. I cannot live without them. ”
“I’ll go boss. Stay here in case they are buying
time and want us to chase a dead end. I’ll come
back with her. ” frank says. “ I’ll come with
you. ” luh’s uncle says. I send frank the
coordinates and they leave.
“ boss ” I look up and it’s Celeste. “ Tell me
everything you found out about Preston. ” she
greets them then sits down and takes out her
laptop. “ so I once investigated him and there
was absolutely nothing other than he’s a doctor
and he owns a surgery and works with hospitals.
Then I asked someone to find some information
about him and last night they sent me this. ” she
reads. “ Preston is from kroonstad. He’s a pure
white boy and his parents are hard core racist.
Preston went to wits and studied there and met a
black girl her name is… .. Uhm yes. Her name
thembi zikode. ” what?!..... Fuck no!. I take out
my phone and call my dad. “ baba?.... how far
are you?.... Okay. ” they look at me. “ continue
Celeste. ”
“ they got into a relationship until one day she
ended things with Preston and thembi suddenly
disappeared. Then 6 months ago she reappeared
again and was spotted with Preston in Durban.
That’s where the tail ends. ” she briefs me.
“ Oh my God!. Oh my God! Oh my God!. ” I
dial sbusiso's number. “ brother? long time. You
miss me already ” he laughs.
“ She’s alive sbu. Thembi is alive and she has
luh. ”
“ what No!. I killed that bitch mbuso. What do
you mean she has Luh?!. ” Celeste stops typing
and mapholoba looks at me frowning. “ Preston
was once thembi's boyfriend. Preston kidnapped
luh this morning and I think himnand thembi
have luh. You didn’t kill her sbu. She’s alive. ”
“ Fuck!. I’m coming. I’m going to kill this bitch
for real this time. I swear!. ” he hangs up. I
shake my head. “ who is thembi and why do
they have luh? ” mapholoba asks. Sicelo bonga
and my parents come into the house the same
time. I look my parents and I am so angry. “ this
is all your fault you know. It’s all your fault!. ” I
say looking at them.
“ ungalinge uze ukhohlwe ukuthi ukhuluma
nobani mbuso!. Senzeni thina?. ” ( don’t you
dare forget who you’re talking to! What did I
do? ).
“ Celeste tell what you have just told me. ” I get
up and go to my bedroom and change. I wear all
black because I’m going to hunt and kill people.
I don’t care how small they played a part on luh
kidnapping but they are all going to die. I come
down and see sicelo and bonga have changed
aswell.
“ I thought usbusiso killed her mbuso. You both
said she died. ” my dad says. “ yeah well I
thought so too. We all did but the bitch
obviously didn’t did die. She and Preston are
working together. ”
“ Who is this woman mnguni?.” mapholoba
asks again. I look at my dad and he looks down
and sighs. “ I’ll tell you who she is. You see my
parents here thought that they can play
matchmaker with me and their best friends
daughter. They wanted me to date her and marry
her but I would hear none of that. She liked me
but I didn’t and she knew it. So one day I’m in
Joburg and my parents show up with her at my
house. That was five years ago. They leave her
at my house because they thought that if she’s
there in a house with me I will eventually like
her and have a relationship with her but that
didn’t happen. Sbu was there the very same day
they dropped thembi off. I kicked her out and
sbu felt sorry for her and took her to his house. ”
I fold my arms on my chest.
“ My parents didn’t know that after they left
thembi. Her and sbu began to date and he would
bring her to this gentleman’s club that we all
went to. Sbu saw how sadistic twisted
manipulative and evil thembi is after a few
months they dated. She would go there alone
without him knowing. He kept thinking he
would change but instead she got worse.
Thembi would go home to my parents and tell
them how perfect we are loving each other and
everything. I would tell them that she’s lying
but they wouldn’t believe me because thembi
was this sweet innocent girl who grew up in
front of their eyes. I let it go. She told sbu that
she was pregnant with his child and he was
excited. Thembi went to my parents and hers
and claimed that she was pregnant with my
child. Her family came to my family to tell them
about the pregnancy and my parents accepted
the child on my behalf while I was not there to
defend myself. I told them again that the child
she’s carrying was not mine but still they didn’t
believe me so the weekend they were preparing
to go pay the damages I came home with sbu.
We all went there and she was shocked to see
me and sbu there.” My parents look at me and I
see regret because we have never talked about
this ever since it happened.
“ she then tells them that it’s another boyfriend
of hers that got her pregnant it’s not us. My
mom was devastated not because thembi lied
about me getting her pregnant but because she
wasn’t carrying their grandchild. Sbu and I left.
He broke things off with thembi but the bitch
didn’t get it. She tormented and chased away
every woman that sbu tried to date. She would
somehow find out whom he’s dating. She would
kidnap and torture them to leave sbu alone. One
day he’s girlfriend went missing and we tracked
her phone and we found her with thembi. It was
then that we found out the reason why they
would just disappear on him. She had killed the
girl in the most brutal and horrific way. Sbu shot
her 5 times then he took her body and went to
dump it. He came back and we cleaned her
apartment and took the girls body to where
someone would find it. That’s the last time we
saw her and we never talked about her until
today. We don’t know if she really was pregnant
and if she had the child.” my mom is sniffing
and she’s annoying the hell out of me.
“ I’m sorry mbuso we thought that you… . ”
“ save it mama. Uthembi is a cold heartless
bitch and I swear if she has done anything to luh
and my kids. I will never forgive you. She is
here because you forced her down my throat and
look now. She has my wife and kids!. This is all
my fault! I should have killed her the moment
you left her in my doorstep!.”
“ brother it’s not your fault it’s not their fault
either. Obviously someone found her before she
died. Sbu must have thought that she was dead.
” sicelo is about to make me lose my mind.
“ but mbuso they would have told us that thembi
is alive and how sure are you that it’s her who
took her?. ”
“ I would know that bitch even if she woke from
the dead 10 years later. Mama did her parents
know that she was dead?! Did they tell you and
have a funeral for her? ” she shakes her head.
“ They thought that she was still ashamed of
what she did. ” my mom says.
“ That’s right. You are still friends with her
mother right? ”
“ Mbuso!. ”
“ Shut the fuck up bonga! You know very well
what sbu and I went through with that girl. ” he
shakes his head. “ call her mom. Call her right
now and ask her where thembi is. ” she cries. “
dad talk to your wife. Time is running out.
Thembi won’t hesitate to kill her do you
understand that!. Can you once just trust me
when it comes to her mom can you do that?. ”
my phone rings and it’s frank.
“ frank? ”
“ She’s not here in the taxi. They are both not
here. The guy who had Preston’s phone say he
sold him the phone cause he was in need of cash
and he never took out his SIM card cause he
gets free airtime and data. ” fuck!.
“ did he tell you where he was when he sold him
the phone? ”
“ At the rank. 2 weeks ago. ” my heart drops. “
come back frank. He might be a doctor but he’s
not that smart. He’s not far.. He is around. ”
“ we’re coming boss. ” I hang up and sigh. I
have this gut wrenching fear that something is
wrong. I can feel it. I can still see that girl with
her eyes out of sockets. Breast cut and her
uterus out of her vagina. Please God!. Please
God!. “ mom did you call thembi's mother?! ”
she’s tapping on her phone crying.
“ mbuso calm down!. ” mapholoba says.
“ I’ll go out and look for her myself because
standing here and waiting for nothing is a one
minute away to her death!.” I go to my study
open my safe and take out my big black bag that
has everything I’m going to need. I come back
with it and pass all of them in the kitchen. I get
in my black Jeep and starts the engine. Sicelo
and bonga get in the car with me.
“ It’s us against the world. ” bonga says. He
grips my shoulder and sicelo too. I wipe the
tears that were falling. Luh needs me. I can’t
breakdown now. I’ll break down after she is
safe and sound in my arms. My phone rings
again and it’s sbu. “ brother ” bonga answers
“ I’m in Pietermaritzburg. I have my men
staying guard in here in case that bitch is here or
shows up. I’ll be there in thirty minutes. I sent
uMadoda to her parent’s house. I told him to do
everything possible to get them to tell us where
thembi is. ” he says.
“ I don’t even know where to start looking for
here. I can’t find my own damn wife sbu!.
Fuck!. ”
“ Bonga drive. Mbuso go sit on the passenger
seat. ” he says then hangs up. He’s right I can’t
drive I feel useless. I can find other people but I
can’t find my wife? What kind of husband am
I?. I get out and bonga takes the drivers seat.
Mapholoba comes out with my dad and Celeste.
“ Preston’s car was spotted going towards the
location. We have to go and search there. ” he
says. “ I need you and dad to stay behind just in
case. We can handle this. ” he comes to me and
hugs me. I look at my dad and he nods. I nod
too.
“ bring my daughter back to me mbuso. I can’t
lose her again. ” I nod.
“ I’m coming with you. I’m not staying behind
because I want to bitch slap Preston. ” she says.
“ I’ll ride with her sicelo come and drive. ”
bonga says.
“ take the volvo. ” he nods. I get in the car and
leave. I send frank a message telling him we are
going to the location. I send sbu the same
message.
“ Well find her brother. No matter what!. ”
“ I’ll kill myself if thembi has killed her. I will
not live in this world without her and our kids. ”
I have never been this scared and terrified in my
life. I wipe my tears. We drive out.

CHAPTER 52

LUNGI.

Pain pain is what I’m feeling right now all over

my body. When the bullet hit me I fell on my
stomach and I am in so much pain. I am
screaming in agony and I’m worried about my
kids. Did I hurt them when I fell? I’m
disoriented I’m bleeding! From my shoulder?
Yes from between my legs? I don’t know but I
am in pain. I can’t stop screaming my babies!
My babies!. I’m sorry mbuso! I’m so sorry!.

“ Luh? Luh? Wake up… no! No! No!. Don’t

close your eyes luh?. Why did you shoot her
thembi? Why did you do it? ” Preston is beside
himself. I hear terror coming from his voice as
he screams at thembi.

“ get her the fuck up and stop being such a

nuisance. You have to take out those kids before
she dies. ” thembi says. Mbuso find me!. I can’t
die like this! I really can’t!.

“ Preston please call… . ” I cough out. “ call

mbuso. There’s still a chance for you… ” I
cough again and Preston screams. “ vuvu! help
me get her up you too thembi!. ” they struggle
to lift me up but they eventually do and I scream
my lungs out because every part of my body is
in excruciating pain. They walk in the house and
place me in a bed that’s like a hospital bed. I
close my eyes and open them and see the whole
room looks like a hospital room.

“ thembi?! this was not the plan. I don’t want

her to die in my hands No!. ” Preston says. “
shut up you little weakling!. You knew very
well what did you think was going to happen
here when you helped me make this room huh?
” she asks him annoyed. I can feel myself sleep
wanting to take over but I can’t. They are going
to take my kids and run away with them and I
can’t let them. Babies please hold on for
mommy please!. I say silently and my stomach
begins to have cramps and I scream.

“ Preston please I’m begging you!. Don’t let her

take my kids!. ” thembi laughs. “ how about I
just shoot that big mouth that talks a lot huh? ”
thembi reeks of evil. It’s like she’s Satan’s
daughter. I scream again cause my lower back
now is killing me. I can’t give birth now not like
this!. The pain on my shoulder and my lower
back is intense and excruciatingly hard. I cry
and scream. “ she’s in pain thembi! Let’s take
her to the hospital she’s going to die dammit! ”
Preston is panicking.

“ stop being a little bitch and take out that bullet

first.” She roughly pushes me to my side and I
scream still crying. “ give me that knife ” she
says and I wail. Is this how I’m going to die? “
I’m sorry! I am so sorry for everything mbuso
has done to you please forgive him. ” I beg her.
“ Bitch shut up!. Everything you have was
suppose to be mine! All mine!. His mother sold
me dreams and promised me that he will love
me but he didn’t and I loved him. I loved that
man. You… . You have him but he’s mine!. If I
can’t have him so will you. You will not have
him too. We waited and waited planning my
revenge and finally you moved here and I knew
how I was going to get my revenge on him.
When I’m done with you? Sbusiso is next ” she
then laughs.

I hear something buzzing on top of my head and

I can’t see it but it sounds like it’s a machine.
What is she going to do to me?. “ thembi don’t
do it. ” Preston begs her. She laughs then I feel
it on my head she shaves all of my hair off and I
can only watch my hair as it falls down in front
of me. She stops when she’s done then stabs me
where I was a shot and God I want to die. She
pushes the knife in deep and then digs. God I
don’t want to lose consciousness. Please God!
Please God!. I scream and scream until she
stops and takes out the knife and something falls
to the floor. “ good. The bullet is now out. Let’s
get my kids out ” I scream and beg her not to
and she laughs. “ Preston? Vuvu? Cuff her
hands and legs on the bed. ” she instructs them
and I feel hands on my legs. I kick out
screaming but I feel a huge punch on my face
and I get dizzy. I can feel them cuffing my legs
and arms.

“ mbuso is going to kill us thembi please let’s

let her go!. I don’t want to be part of this
anymore!”

“ oh my God! Can you for once just grow some

balls Preston!. Have you forgotten that they took
me away from you huh? they then killed me and
left me to die at a dumping site!. Have you
forgotten all of that?. Don’t you want your
revenge on them?. ”

“ but she didn’t do anything. It was them!. ” he

says.
“ Oh now you say?. She matters to them. You
told me that everyone loves her she’s this
golden child everyone adores and it would kill
them if something unfortunate had to happen to
her and we are about to do that my love. You
and me!. Vuvu keep watch outside for
anything!. ” vuvu leaves.

I scream again and now my back feels like it is

going to snap in two. I wail I sob I scream and
cry my lungs out but the pain is too much it
really is too much!. Mbuso please come cause I
can’t do this! I can’t hold on for too much
longer.

“ she’s losing too much blood thembi she’s

going to die!. ”

“ hey voestek wena man!. Does it look like I

fucken care what happens to her huh?!. Now
give me that knife and let me take out those
kids! ” she's crazy this woman is crazy!.
“ No!. I will do this!. I will take the kids out.!. ”
Preston says and I scream and try to kick my
legs but they are cuffed tight on the bed.

MBUSO.

We are driving around Emnambithi and each

minute going by feels like a minute closer to my
wife’s death. My fear grows with every minute.
Sicelo is talking but I don’t hear a word he’s
saying. I should have killed thembi myself. I
should have went with sbu and made sure that
she’s really dead. “ mbuso! I need you here with
me dammit! ”

“ I have this fucken fear at the pit of my

stomach sicelo. Something is wrong with her.
It’s very wrong. ” I feel like I’m losing my mind
and why is this damn car going so slowly. “ stop
the car!. ”
“ What? ”

“ you’re driving slowly!. Stop the damn car!. ”

he stops and I get out and I begin to walk. I see
two young boys and they are talking. I take out
my phone and stop them “ sure majita? ” I greet
them

“ sure uncle. ”

“ kunabantu engibafunayo Lana. Anikomboni

losisi somewhere lana ekasi? ( there are people
I’m looking for here. Have you see this woman
around here in the township? ) ” they look at her
photo and they shake their heads no. I sigh. “
have you heard or seen something that doesn’t
really happen around? ”

“ Eh uncle? you know earlier like we heard

something that sounded like a gun shot but I
don’t know maybe it’s the taxi drivers fighting
again. ” nope I don’t think so.
“ Can you show me where you heard it coming
from? Take me where you were? ” they nod. “
let’s get in the car and you can show me.” They
look hesitant.

“ look guys I’m only going to tell the both of

you this. Someone kidnapped my wife and she’s
pregnant. The person who took her is crazy and
I want to find her before she hurts her. ”

“ We will help you uncle. Let’s go. ” I nod.

They get in and we drive down the road and
pass two streets. On the third Street they tell us
to stop. “ we heard it coming from here in this
street somewhere around these house I think. ” I
get out of car and the first thing I notice is a
house that has a very high wall. She’s there. I
know she’s there.

“ Sicelo she’s there!. ” he nods. I open the glove

compartment and take out notes and give it to
them. “ thank you uncles. ” they both say.
“ you don’t know us and you’ve never met us.
This right here didn’t happen. Now go home or
to town. ” they both nod and run. My phone
rings and it’s sbu. “ I found her. I’ll send you
the location. ” I hang up and sent him my
location. Frank luh's uncle bonga Celeste and
sbu all arrive at once.

“ I’m so sorry man. I fucked up. This is all my

fault!. ” sbu says. I shake my head no. “ we
know how twisted that bitch is. She has nine
lives and unfortunately for her she’s on her last
one.” We bro hug.

“ what’s the plan? ” Celeste asks.

“ I need you and uncle to tell the neighbours to

stay in the house and not come out. Tell them
we are the special police unit an we are looking
for a fugitive.” I tell her. she nods and they
leave. “ me and sicelo are going to jump over
the neighbours fence while you sbu bonga and
Frank knock on the gate. As a soon as it opens
get in. We can’t shoot anyone cause its daylight.
So you will use stunt guns. Let’s go.” They nod.

“ Whatever we do please make sure that we

don’t make noise and let thembi know we are
here cause she won’t hesitate to kill luh.” Sbu
says. We nod then all go in different directions.
I enter the yard of the next door neighbour and
Celeste is outside talking to a woman. I signal
for them to keep quiet but there is a teenage boy
there. “ you need a ladder to jump. I’ll give it to
you wait. There is someone screaming inside
there sir ” he says leaving and comes back with
the ladder. My heart drops and I know it’s my
wife. I climb it and look over and see there’s no
one outside. The windows seem to have been
painted in black.

I jump in and I hear someone talking on the

gate. Sicelo jumps in too and he tells me to go in
the house. I nod and he goes towards the
direction of the gate. I can hear luh screaming in
agony and I want to kick the door and run inside
but I can’t cause thembi will shoot or stab her
the moment she sees us. I try to push the door in
fortunately for us it’s unlocked. My wife is
crying and screaming in agony and I know those
screams will hunt me forever. I take out my gun
and put on a silencer Sbu and sicelo do the same
and stand beside me then we slowly get in the
house and I hear Preston’s voice say “ No!. I
will do it. I will take the kids out.” My Kids?!
My fucken kids?! I look down the floor and see
a trail of blood. It must be luh’s . The door of
the room they are in is open.

We slowly get in and their backs are to us. I

look at luh and she’s covered in blood and she’s
screaming in pain. Sbu and sicelo shoot both
Preston and thembi on their legs and they fall
screaming and look at us shocked. Preston starts
apologizing. “ luh? Baby? I’m here! I’m here
my love!. Bonga! Frank!. ” I scream their names
and I can’t see properly because my eyes are so
misty they get in running.
“ bring the car!. Luh? baby look at me! ” I lift
her up and she screams like she has been hit and
run over by a huge truck. “ mbuso… ..my
husband. You…found… me… babies… my
babies… . ” she closes her eyes and I scream her
name. I can feel blood coming from her
shoulder blade. I take the duck tape from my leg
pocket and cover the wound. Sbu and sicelo
help me carry her out of the house and we get in
the car backseat. Bonga I know if he wasn’t an
architect he would be a formula 1 race driver.
He takes the wheel reverses then drives out like
a maniac to the hospital. “ luh baby? love please
wake up! You can’t leave me luh! You can’t
leave me baby what would I be without you?!.
Lungile sthandwa sam. Mama wezingane zam
phakade lam’ ungangishiyi!. ” I break down and
cry. She's still breathing but it’s faint. Bonga
stops outside the hospital and they are already
waiting for us. Someone pulls the door roughly
and it’s a doctor. “ Mr Gumede we have her
now. Let go. She needs to go to the theatre for
surgery right now!. ” I let go and they gently
pull her out and I follow them as they run inside
with her.

Nurses stops me when we get to the I. C. U. I

want to be there. I have to be there. She needs
me. I failed her. I failed her and my kids. What
kind of husband am I?. “ Mr Gumede? ” the
doctor calls my name from behind and I see the
whole family is there everyone. “ doctor is she
going to be okay? please save her and my kids
doctor! Please!. ”

I see pity all over his face and I hate it!. I don’t
want anyone to pity me. “ Mr Gumede you have
to sign this first before we can operate. ”

“ you’re wasting time here busy telling me I

should sign some stupid stuff!. My wife could
be dying in there!. ” I scream at him. The doctor
looks at me scared. My dad grabs my shoulders
and looks at the doctor. “ I’m a doctor Gumede
his father. I am retired. What must he sign? ”
“ doctor Gumede. Mr Gumede you have to give
us consent and tell us who to save in case things
don’t go well. We need you to tell us if we
should save your wife or kids if need be. ” is
this doctor crazy? is he hearing himself?.

“ doctor if you value your life and the lives of

everyone you love you will get the fuck off my
face and you will make sure that my wife and
kids are all fine and they will come home with
me!. If I lose anyone of them. I will kill you
myself. Go in there and operate!. ” I take the
damn papers and tears them into pieces. He runs
out not looking back.

I look at those doors and I’m still haunted by her

screams of anguish and agony. I fall on my
knees and cry. I don’t care that they will see me
mbuso Gumede a grown man breaking down
crying. The only person I give a damn about is
fighting for her life and there’s nothing I can do.
I feel weak useless and helpless. My dad holds
me and I scream. I feel hugs coming around me
and sniffs. “ I’m so… So.. Sorry my son. ” I
push all of them off me. I get up “ it’s all your
fault. I blame you!. You were so eager to please
your friends and play match maker now look at
me!. Look at what you have done to the woman
who’s carrying your grandkids!. You know ma.
You better go to that chapel and pray to God
that luh and my kids make it or else. You will be
dead to me! Dead!. ” she wails. My dad looks
down and shakes his head.

“ mnguni son. Ulungile will be fine. She’s

strong and she’s fighter. ” I shake my head No
crying. “ I’m scared mapholoba. How many
years has her mother been gone and you have
never remarried?. She was the only who had
your heart and even know you’ll never love
anyone the way you loved her mother but Mina
baba?. I don’t want anyone. I want and need
only her and no one else!. If luh dies I’m telling
all of you here that I will kill myself. I will not
live in this world without her!. ” I look at my
mom and she’s sobbing on my father’s chest. I
look at my dad and I know he understands
where I’m coming from.

“ where is she?! where are they?! ” I ask sbu

and sicelo. Frank sbu and bonga get up and look
at me. “ you wouldn’t dare!. ” I tell them.

“ what’s going on? ” sicelo asks getting up too.

“ mbuso don’t!. Don’t even think about it!. ” my

dad says standing in front of me.

“ No!. I want to see them. I just want to talk to

them. ”

“ mbuso don’t!. Luh needs you here. Now and

you can’t leave your wife and kids!. ” my dad
says.

“ baba please don’t stop me! ” I wipe my tears.

“ what’s wrong with mbuso wanting to go talk
to thembi and Preston? ”

“ the last time he did that he turned someone

into mince meat and sent it to his family nicely
packaged and wrote enjoy. ” luh’s aunt vomits
on the floor.

“ who’s watching them while everyone is here?

What if they both escape? ” I am so raged. I
want to kill them slowly and painfully.

“ we put them in the hole. ” sicelo says. The

doctor comes out and looks at us.

“ Mr Gumede your wife lost a lot of blood but

we did a transfusion and we have managed to
close the wound on her shoulder but there is a
possibility that her left hand might not ffunction
properly or at all because when the bullet hit her
it touched a nerve and whoever took out that
bullet did more damage to the nerves but we
will know when she wakes up.” I will not kill
Preston. I am going to make him a vegetable.
Death is too easy for him. There are doctors all
over the world and she will go through therapy
and she will be fine. She’s luh she’s my damn
wife!.

“ what about my kids? Are they okay?.” he

sighs and this doctor is really trying my
patience. “ talk doctor!. What about my kids?. ”

“ We feel it is risky for her to have a natural

birth and have to take the kids out now because
they are not yet fully in term. We are going to
do a caesarean because the kids might be at risk
since her body has been through a very
traumatic experience. ” he says and my
shoulders shake.

“ Uh… okay please make sure they alright

doctor please!. ” why is God punishing me like
this? Is it because I have been bad and I’m now
paying for my sins?. But why doesn’t God
punish me and leave my family alone?.
“ I suggest you go and clean yourself so you can
hold your children. ”

“ uhm doctor can you wait until tomorrow or a

few hours before you do a caesarean on her? ”
what?

“ Dad no!. My wife is in pain!.”

“ can you do that doctor? ” the doctor looks at

me and I nod. “ Well I can try. He looks at the
clock on the wall. “ we can’t wait until
tomorrow but I can give you four hours then
after that we will operate. ”

“ ok thank you. ” the doctor leaves. I look at my

dad to explain himself. He looks at me then
looks at her dad. “ we have to do the cleansing
and name the child before they bring the babies
into this world and we have to do it now. ” oh
yeah we were suppose to do that this weekend.
“ what do you need from us? ” her dad asks.

“ for now nothing. Mbuso has to come with me

and her aunt we’ll take Sims too represent Buhle
then we will be back with our traditional healer
so he can prepare for the arrival of the kids. ”

“ can’t bonga stand in for me? ” I ask him.

“ you are here mbuso. You have to come and

name the child. In our kraal. We’ll be back
before they even start. I have asked your uncles
to prepare.”

I look at sbu all of them. “ you call me if

anything happens to her. You call me. Bonga…
” he gets up and hugs me. “ we won’t leave her
side. We’ll wait here until you come back. ” sbu
gets up and hugs me too so is sicelo and Frank. I
look at mapholoba and be nods. I take Sims
hand and she’s a crying mess. “ it’s going to be
okay. ” I comfort her and she can’t even talk.
Dad gives my aunt money to buy the clothes for
the child for girls and boys and she doesn’t take
long. We get in and my dad drives straight at
home.

Two and half hours later we are coming back

and I’m clean and I have changed clothes. I had
to cause I couldn’t enter the sacred kraal with
blood. I named her smangele and for the boy
name phumlani. Everything just felt wrong
because maybe I didn’t care and I wanted to be
with my family. We walk through the hospital
doors again and everyone is just as how we left
them. My mom looks at me and I look away.
I’m still mad. “ mapholoba how is she? ”

“ the doctor or anyone hasn’t told us anything.

We know where they are keeping her. We made
a plan for the traditional healer to do his work
before the doctor comes back. Sicelo and sbu
will lock the doctor in his office and well stay
here and look out. You have fifteen minutes. ”
“ mapholoba? the whole family has to come
with us. You are needed in there too. ” he nods
and hey follow me my dad bonga my aunt and
uncles. We all go in and I see her with tubes that
are connected to her arm stomach and a medium
almost big one is connected to her mouth. She’s
using it to breath. I don’t ever want to see my
wife in this kind of position ever!. The healer
lights the sage and burns something else too and
says my clan names then her clan names and
tells nomalanga/ phumalani to leave their
siblings alone not cause any harm and protect
them. He says many other things and I don’t
hear cause my mind is focused on the woman
who’s my weakness.

She can say mbuso jump and I’ll ask how high.
I take her hand and it’s soft and it feels fragile. I
place my hand on her tummy and I feel nothing.
My kids usually move when I touch her tummy
but now they don’t. I wipe my tears then put my
head over her tummy. I close my eyes and say
my clan names and everyone gets quiet. It’s
only the machine that is making sounds.

I lift my head and then put my hand again on

her tummy and still nothing. I am about to take
it off when I feel them moving and luh makes a
sound. She’s moaning in pain. “ ngiqedile
manje. Sekazo beletha uMangcobo. Mnguni
bangamusiki Kumele abelethe kahle
ngokwemelo. ( my job is done now. She is
about to give birth. Mnguni the should not do a
caesarean she must give birth naturally. ) ” the
traditional healer says. I wipe my tears and luh
screams again hard now. They leave and I stay
behind.

“ Nurse? ! Nurse? ! Doctor?! ” the nurse comes

in running and the doctor follows too. “ we have
to take her to the surgery now! ” he shouts.

“ No!. She will give birth naturally you can see

she’s awake and in pain. You won’t do
caesarean on her. ”

“ Mr Gumede sir we talked about this!. ”

“ and I’m telling you now. She will give birth

naturally! Help her!. ”

“ but we didn’t prepare an epidural sir! ”

“ doctor my wife is fucken pain and you’re busy
talking nonsense again. Look at her she’s in
pain!. ”

“ Ok fine. You have leave now. You can’t be

here!. ”

“ I am staying here. I want to be there when my

kids are born. ”

“ ok ok!. Nurse go give him scrubs to change

into. ” the nurse agrees and we leave and go to
the next room. The door opens and it’s my mom
and some of luh’s uncles wives. I sigh. I wear
the scrubs on top of my clothes. “ mbuso. We
know you want to be there when luh gives birth
but you shouldn’t see such. ” my mom says and
I shake my head.

“ Oh so now you want to take away the most

important time of my life? ” she looks down and
sniffs.
“ mkhwenyana ( son in-law) we might live in a
mordent world but don’t forget your teachings
and how you grew up. You are a Zulu man
mbuso. You cannot look at your wife when
she’s giving birth ” she says and I chuckle.

“ aunty. I won’t look at her vagina. I just want

to be there and hold her hand. She will kill me if
she finds out I had my head in there. Well I have
had it… ”

“ oh my God!. ” they get out. The nurse laughs.

“ served them right. Let’s go. ” we get inside the
room and luh is so red and is screaming bloody
murder. I doubt she even knows that I’m there. I
take her hand and she looks at me. Then cries. “
push Mrs gunede push!. ” the doctor tells her
and she screams then pushes and shakes her
head. “ you can do it my love I’m here. Push
baby our kids want to meet you ” she nods then
pushes again almost breaking my hand off. I
keep encouraging her to push and she does. “
yes Mrs Gumede. Now give me one last very
strong push ” she huffs looking at me. “ I hate
you I hate you! ” she says

“ I hate myself too baby push! ” she huffs again

then pushes. Wow I didn’t know that luh is this
physically strong. She keeps pushing then I hear
my little Gumede crying his lungs out telling the
world he is here. My bay last born baby “ hello
mommy hello daddy I’m a boy ” the doctor
says. They give me the scissors and I cut the
umbilical cord. The nurse takes him away to
clean him and luh is still in pain.

“ push baby push one last time. ” I tell her.

She’s so red and is screaming bloody murder
again and making all kinds of promises about
how she’s going to kill me then she says she
loves me then I must come and push the baby
out. “ you’re almost there Mrs Gumede push!.
The baby is here. ” she grabs my t-shirt like
she’s going to choke me then pushes hard
screaming. Another little Gumede comes out
screaming very loud like he’s fighting putting
his mark in this world. Qwabe!. I kiss luh then
cut his umbilical cord too. They bring the first
baby who is the last born and I take him and
hold him in my arms delicately. I kiss his pink
forehead. The nurse takes him takes the blanket
off him and puts him inside luh hospital dress
and she looks at me cries. She kisses him. They
bring qwabe too and I hold him kiss him. The
nurse does the same and luh kisses him too. “
my babies. Mommy loves you. I love you very
much. I love you too mbuso. ” I wipe my tears
and kiss her and hug her with our kids. “ I love
you my husband. I love you Phakathwayo ”

“ thank you for making me a man. Thank you

for giving me everything I could ever ask for. ”
she looks at me. Looks at our kids the closes her
eyes. The machines go off and start making
noise. What?! No!. The nurse takes the kids
from her and some try to push me out. “
LUNGI?! LUNGILE?! LUNGI?! DOCTOR
WHAT’S WRONG WHAT’S GOING ON?! ”
“ take Mr Gumede out. She’s going into shock!.
Get him out of here!. ”

“ NO! NO! NO! LUNGILE! LUNGILE! ” two

strong arms pull me out of the room.

CHAPTER 52
CHAPTER 52.

MBUSO.

They drag me out until we are at the waiting

area. She cannot die and leave our kids like that.
How the hell am I going to take care of two kids
on my own?. She has to live! She really has to.
“ what happened mbuso? Is something wrong
with lungi ?” her aunt asks. How the hell do I
tell them that luh might be dead?. I shake my
head and leave them just like that as they keep
calling after me. I run out of the hospital and as
soon as I’m outside. I scream. I fucken roar so
loud and hard and I still feel like it’s not
enough. Someone would probably think that I
am crazy and they might be right because that is
exactly how I am feeling. “ brother? ” it’s
bonga. “ leave me alone bonga. I really want to
be alone and get some fucken air and breathe!. ”
he sits down on the pavement with me.

“ well too bad because you know I won’t leave

you here alone. We are in this together. All of us
are here for you and luh. We’ll both get some
air and breath too cause being inside there is
suffocating me. ” he doesn’t get it. He really
doesn’t. “ Bonga please!. ” he shakes his head. “
no mbuso. I won’t leave you here alone and
make up all kinds of worse scenarios in that
bead of yours. I know you’re scared. Hell I’m
scared too. The doctor came out after you left
the waiting room. Luh is fine but she hasn’t
woken up yet but she will. She just went into
shock but she’s not dead mbuso. She is still here
with us and she needs all of us to be strong for
the both of you and your kids. Nothing bad will
happen. ”

“ it already did bonga. She went into shock

cause her body can’t handle everything that she
has went through. What happens if she goes into
another shock and doesn’t come out of it and
her body gives in and she dies and leaves us
what happens then?. I am so scared of losing
her. I wish I can trade places and be there one
who is lying there. I can’t stand to see her like
that. ” I wipe my tears. “ lungi is strong mbuso
and she knows that if she dies it will hurt her
more than it will hurt you. She’s young and
she’s very strong. You have to believe and have
faith man that she will wake up and you will
take her home with your kids. Be strong brother.
Now is not the time for you to be breaking
down. She needs strength from all of us but
especially you. She needs you to pull her out of
that shock. She needs to hear your voice. That’s
what she needs. ” I get up and shake my head. “
I don’t have strength bonga. When I look at her
I cry and I just want her to hold me and tell me
that it is going to be okay. How do I tell her that
when my heart is filled with fear. Fear of losing
her. She has been through and what if she thinks
it’s better for her to not be here. ”

“ you sound so stupid right now and I know you

don’t believe that she could choose death over
you and your kids. Mbuso you and luh breathe
and live for each other. I know that my sister is
fighting tooth and nail to be here to see her kids
and you. Brother I know it’s hard and none of us
can imagine what you’re going through but we
are here with you and we will go through each
and every pain you’re feeling. You will not shut
us out and want to have some space to think or
breathe. We will go to the toilet with you even if
we must. We are all in this together. We will not
leave your side and we will come out of this
much stronger than we were before.” Sicelo
says and I don’t know when he got here.
“ All we are asking you is to let us in and share
your pain with us because it is hurting all of us
to see you like this and especially luh. She is
your wife mbuso but she is also as important to
me and she is to you because I know if the roles
were reversed and I was in your shoes. You
would do and say the same. You probably
would have punched me in my face and told me
to snap out of it and that I will fall apart when
my wife wakes up and when she is fine. So
brother I’m saying the same thing to you. Wipe
those damn tears. Get in there and show them
that you’re mbuso gumede. Go and talk to your
wife then you come back and let us see our kids
cause the nurses are waiting for you to give
them the go ahead But first we have to go to the
chapel and pray. Don’t look at me like that. One
of us here has to know how to talk to God and I
think Bonga is the one who knows how to do
that.” Sbusiso says and bonga nods. He pulls me
to him and we bro hug. We all share a group
hug then we head inside.
We go to the chapel and we kneel down in a
line. We look at each other then we laugh. “ ok
guys let’s be serious. ” we laugh again. “ God is
not going to take us serious because we are not
being serious right now. ” bonga says. “ man I
feel weird in here. It’s like God is standing right
in front of my face. ” sicelo says looking around
the chapel. “ close your eyes you fools and stop
gambling with my wife’s life. ” they get silent. “
uh father God. It is me bonga and my three
brothers. The sinners. Uhm God we know we
don’t have a relationship with you but we are
here to ask you for a favour. We are not
mocking you or disrespecting you and we are
sorry about laughing just now and all the killing
we have done and the killing we are going to do
tomorrow. I am not going to lie in your face
because you know what we are going to do it.
God. Please bring luh back for all of us but
especially for her kids and my brother. ”

I open my eyes and look at my brother. He is

serious and his hands are tightly entwined
together. I do the same then close my eyes
again. “ ever since luh came to our lives. my
brother has changed for the good. He changed
because he found his soulmate and because he
loves her and wanted to do anything to make her
happy. So bra God please don’t take khanyo
away from us because my brother is going to be
miserable without her and I do not want that. He
promised to kill himself if khanyo doesn’t wake
up and I know he will do that. But for our sake
God don’t take khanyo away. Her kids needs
their mother and our brother needs our wife.
She’s not only a light to him only but to all of us
too. Thank you God and uhm I hope I made
sense amen. ” he says. We say amen and this
has got to be the weirdest prayer I have ever
heard but I am thankful. “ I feel guilty that when
bonga started praying the only thing playing on
my mind was sex. ” we look at him like what
the fuck sbu? “ yoh these kids will kill me man!
sex while praying yoh.” Luh's other aunt says
claping her hands once and leaves. We look at
her shocked because we thought we we’re
alone. We look at each other then laugh. I leave
them then go to the room they are keeping her to
and she looks like she is in deep sleep. My
sleeping beauty looks so beautiful. I love this
woman and I will move heaven and earth for
her.

I sit down and take her hand. It is soft and

delicate. These hands have made me come
undone. They have loved me supported me and
most of they have built a warm loving home for
me. “ luh sthandwa sam. ( my love.) I would
like to think that you can hear me. I’ve heard
about how they always say that when someone
is in a coma you should talk to them because
they can hear you so I hope you are hearing me
right now. You gave birth to two boys they are
so beautiful and they have your beauty.” I
chuckle. “ I can’t have my boys looking like
pretty boys because they will get teased at
school but the girls will love them. I’m sure of
that. I thought that maybe we will have a
beautiful girl who will look like you and drive
me absolutely crazy but that means we still have
to have so much sex until we make her. I do
want a mini version of you so she can wrap me
around her fingers like you. Come back to us
khanyo. There will be no light in our lives
without you. I need you and our kids need you
more.” He chest is moving up and down. She’s
breathing she’s alive and that’s all that matters
to me.

“ we still have a wonderful life to look forward

to with our loved ones. I still have to show you
the world and…. I promise that when the kids
are at least three months old. I am going to take
you away from here with our kids. We will
come back when they are a year old and we still
need to name them. I think dad will name them
but I’m not sure. I want us to name them
though. I think I’m going crazy and I’m losing
my mind. I need you back khanyo. Come back
sthandwa sam. Come back to us. ” lay my head
next to her body. I continue not talk to her like
she’s is with me and she’s listening laughing
and watching me as we talk. Yes. I’ll keep that
image in my mind..

LUNGI.

I can hear voices people talking but I’m

struggling to hear what they are saying. I want
to open my eyes but I cant. I try to lift my head
and body but I can’t too cause the feel very
heavy. My kids. Where are my kids?. Someone
touches my hand and it’s my husband. I try to
open my mouth to speak but it feels like it has
been shut with glue. He’s talking to me. He’s
crying. Mbuso don’t cry I’m still here. I want to
comfort him. I try to get up but I can’t. I can’t
see anything because it is dark where I’m at. I
see a light shining somewhere and somehow I
find myself walking towards that light. I see a
figure of a person outside and it is sitting down
on the beach. I hear the waves and the birds
chirping somewhere around. The sun is shining
so bright and it is a very lovely weather.

I walk towards that person and they get up but

they have not turned to look at me. It’s a woman
she’s taller than me on height and she looks like
she’s older than me. She’s wearing along
beautiful white dress and it fits her perfectly.
She has a beautiful body. Her hair that looks
like mine. I stop walking and put a hand in my
chest. My heart is beating so fast it feels like it
is going to jump out of my chest. No. It can’t be
her. Does this mean that I am dead now that I
can see her. “ mama? Is that you? ” she turns
and looks at me. My bottom lip hangs in shock..
She smiles then opens her arms to me. I slowly
walk towards her and she does to. He arms are
still open when we both stop in front of each
other. “ mntanam. ( my child) ” she says. She is
my mother. She almost looks exactly like me. If
she was alive and we had to go somewhere I
think we would have been mistaken for sisters
and not mother and daughter. “ mama. It’s really
you. ” I throw myself in her arms and I cry.

She holds me tight and I feel her love and

warmth. She is really here. I smell her neck and
she smells like cocoa butter. I pull back and
touch her face and hair and she laughs. “ are you
really real or it’s a figment of my imagination? ”
she smiles and kisses my cheek and forehead
then she palms my cheek. “ come let’s go sit
down and talk. She takes my hand and leads me
to the beach. We sit in the sand. “ it’s a beautiful
day today is it not? ” somehow that statement
makes me think of mbuso. “ why are you sad
baby? ” I take a deep breath and look at her. “ it
is here but I don’t think it is there. ” she nods. “
you are so beautiful and grown up. You are a
wife and a mother now. You know I held your
kids before they were born. I kissed their
cheeks. They are so beautiful and handsome.
Just like their dad. ” I smile. “ thank you mom.
What do you think of my husband mom? ”
Her smile is beautiful and it radiates from her
face. “ at first I didn’t like him because I had
thought that his intensions with you were not
pure. I was scared for your life but I slowly saw
change in him and then I knew he was worthy of
you. The day you left that house and went to
live with him was the day I found a little peace.
I know he loves you and he lives for you baby.
He reminds me of your dad. His love is very
intense and sometimes it make you feel like
your suffocating right? ” I nod. “ it’s in him and
he can’t help himself. It’s how you love him and
how he loves you. The both of you are like that.
He has walked the ends of the earth protecting
you and I want you to tell him that I am grateful
and I am happy to have a son in law like him. ”

Wow. I didn’t know that I needed to hear those

words coming from my mother and that they
would mean that much to me. “ thank you mama
I will. ” she pats my leg and sighs. “ I’m sorry
about how you I left all of you. How you grew
up and experienced in the hands of those people.
We are not here to talk about them but I want
you to promise me one thing baby. ” I look at
her then nod. “ I want you to promise me that
you will let go of all the hurt they did to you.
All the regrets you have. I want you to live your
life without any regrets and be happy with your
family. You have been through so much my
child and each time you come up stronger than
before and that is what you must promise me.
No one can take away your happiness but only
yourself. Believe in the woman you are the
mother you are and the wife you are.”

“ I promise you mom. I will do that. Are you

happy here cause it looks like you are alone?. ”
she laughs. “ I am not alone baby. There are
many people here. Thank you for honouring me
at your wedding and always including me in
everything you are doing in your life. I will
always be with you and I will guide you in
every way. All you have to do is come to me
and talk to me. I am so proud of you my
children and please tell your brother that too. He
has met a wonderful woman and she will make
him happy. You and her are going to be great
sisters. Our family is growing and that makes
me very happy.” She gets quiet after that and we
sit in silence “ mom? ”

serif">“ Yes baby?. ” her eyes look teary

and I think she knows what I want to ask
her. “ why haven’t you asked me about dad.
” she gets up and I get up too. We walk
slowly and the sun is slowly setting. “
because I still miss him and I’m waiting for
the day that God will reunite us again. I
was ripped from him. We didn’t live our life
the way we planned because of my
mistakes and lungile. I want you to learn
from my mistakes and stop letting anyone
close to you. You have to protect your
family no matter what. Your instincts
warned you but you failed to listen to them.
Don’t do that again because you almost
cost yourself your life and your kids life.
That woman was going to kill you baby if
your husband hadn’t found you.”

“ I know mom and it was very stupid of me

but what happened opened my eyes and I
will never make the same mistake twice. ”
she nods. “ trust the people you have right
now in your life. You have my grandchildren
now and I want to see you grow old and
them growing up to take care of you one
day. ” she wipes my tears. “ I wish you
didn’t die. I wish I had you growing up. ” she
hugs me and we stand like that. “ there are
people I want you to meet. ” I look at her. “
who do you want me to meet mom? ” she
smiles. “ you’ll see. Close your eyes. ” ok. I
close them and I wait. “ open them. ” and I
am hesitant. What if the people she wants
me to meet are the mazibuko's but I don’t
think God would do that to me or my mom
because pretty sure she would have killed
her then moment she saw them.
I open my eyes and I am shocked. I look at
what’s infront of me and there stand two
people who look like my mom and dad.
They look like me and sicelo. One is
woman and another is a man. They are
smiling and look excited. “ these are your
siblings lungile. This is your older sister
mbalenhle and your older brother ntokozo. ”
what? “ how come I don’t know about them
and no one has ever said anything about
my other siblings?. ” they pull me to them
and we share a groom hug and I cry. I hold
them tight and cry my eyes out. “ you don’t
have to cry baby. Your father didn’t know
about them too. He only found out when
thuli confessed to have made me lose
them. I didn’t know I was pregnant and she
made gave me something to lose them. ”
that witch! “ I’m sorry thuli did that to all of
us. ” they nod. “ we are glad to have met
you too. Please tell dad and the whole
family about us. Tell them we have grown
and we are watching over all of you. ” my
brother says. He is indeed my fathers son
and my older sister is just as beautiful as
my mom. Wow. My parents genes don’t
play. “ I love all of you ” I hug them again
and then they leave. My mom looks at me
and I know it’s time to say goodbye and I’m
not ready. “ are you leaving me?... Again? ”
I know I’m being ridiculous but I’m still not
ready. I hug her and cry on her shoulder.

“ It’s time for you to go back and be with

your family. Your husband needs you and
my grandchildren need you too. Take of
your dad and make sure he’s happy. I love
all of you baby and I am always watching
over you. Tell your dad about your brother
and sister. He will know what to do. Tell him
what must he name them. Mbalenhle and
Ntokozo. Now go back before your husband
kills himself. ” she kisses my cheek then
gives me one last tight hug and I hold her
tight to me not wanting to let go. “ lungile!
Lungile!. Luh go back mntanam. ( my child.)
Ngizohlala ngikuthanda thumbu kamama. (
I will always love you my last born ) don’t
you ever forget that you are favoured my
child and lungile. Please go to church and
christen my grandkids. Now go!. ” she tries
to lush me but I hold her tight and cry. She
cries too but then she pushes me hard and
the light goes out. I don’t see her anymore
and I scream her name. I keep calling her
name but she’s not there anymore and
there’s no light.

Someone is calling my name repeatedly

and I’m crying calling for my mom. They
shake me until I feel a sharp smell on my
nose and I open my eyes and the first
person I see is my husband and he looks
like a mess. His beard has grown and he
looks very sexy and messy at the same
time. He looks like he hasn’t slept in
months. He looks at me then takes my
hand to his. He palms my cheek and his
hand feels so warm and comforting it feels
like home. “ baby you’re awake!. Finally!. I
thought you were never going to wake up. ”
what? Why would he think that?. “ nurse?
Call the doctor my wife is awake!. ”

“ I sleep for a day then I wake up and your

beard has grown to this size?. Baby did you
eat and get some sleep? ” he chuckles and
kisses my lips. I wipe his tears. “ why are
crying?.... Can you give me some water to
drink? ” he gets up and gives me water.
The doctor comes in looking panicked then
he relaxes when he sees me. “ My God
finally you’re awake. How are you feeling?.
” they look at me worried then the doctor
helps me sit up. And begins to check my
heart rate eyes and high blood pressure
and my sugar level.
“ I’m fine. I feel fine. ” I answer him. “ what
is your name and who is the president of
this country?” is this doctor serious. “ My
name is lungile Gumede and Ramaphosa is
our president and this is my husband
Mbuso Gumede. Where are my kids? ” he
writes down then looks at me “ can you
move your toes for me?.” He asks lifting the
sheet off to see my feet and my toes are
still working just fine. He writes down. “ can
you do the same to your hands?. ” I feel my
husband freezing. He looks worried. I move
my hands and they are all working just fine.
“ do you feel any pain when you’re moving
them? ” I shake my head no. Ok what is
going on here?. “ I’m going to list poke you
with this needles here. I need you to tell me
at the scale from 0 to 10 how does it feel?. ’
he does and damn that think stings. “ aaw
that’s a 10. But it is cramping a little. Why
do you look worried. ” I ask the doctor then
look at mbuso.
“ Do you remember what happened to you
Mrs Gumede? ” I look at mbuso and my
husband is still worried. “ I do remember..
Thank you for saving me. I’m sorry I didn’t
tell you about my suspicions about Preston.
… .. ” just think about what that woman said
she was going to do to me and what my
mom told me that she would have killed me
makes me tear up. I honestly thought that I
was never going to see my family again. “
shhh. It’s okay baby. You are safe now.
Your hand is cramping because when you
got shot and when thembi took out the
bullet she touched some of your nerves
that’s why you are feeling it cramping. ” oh
my God. “ does that mean my left hand
might not work? ” I ask the doctor.

“ We have to monitor it to see if it stops

working or it completely heals. But for now
I’m not worried because it seems to be
working. Congrats though for delivering two
beautiful baby boys. The nurse will bring
them and your family is dying to see you. I
will keep you for night and if there are no
complications then tomorrow morning you
are free to go home with your kids. Do you
feel pain anywhere else in your body? ” I
look at mbuso and smile. “ other than my
shoulder no I feel fine. Does that mean that
there is nothing wrong with my kids even if
they were born before time? ”

“ You were already and fully eight months

pregnant and you were on the first week of
your ninth month. I have never experienced
something like this Mrs Gumede. You got
shot and you were in pain but you still
managed to give birth naturally wow!. I
have helped many women in very
complicated situations but this one was one
of a kind and I’m happy to know that I
helped you deliver your babies even though
you gave us a scare. Congratulations you
two again The nurse will come and give
you your babies. ” he leaves is and I look at
mbuso. He looks so down and broken.

“ talk to me.. What’s wrong?. ” he sighs. He

lays his head on my lap. “ you were in a
coma luh for a week. I was afraid that you
were never going to wake up. I thought you
were going to die after you gave birth to the
twins and I. .. ” oh my poor husband. I’ve
been in a coma for a week. But if felt like I
was with my mom for a few hours?. “ I’m
here now and I am awake. I’m sorry I put
you through hell my husband. Do you
forgive me? ” he looks at me and honestly I
don’t like seeing him like this. “ there’s
nothing to forgive baby. I just want to take
you home with our kids that’s all. ” he says.
The nurse comes in and I see my beautiful
babies. “ but I haven’t bathed yet. ” I tell
them and mbuso chuckles. “ Sims made
sure that you looked beautiful and she
bathed you herself. ” that’s s like her. The
nurse undresses them then she puts them
inside my hospital gown and they look so
beautiful and perfect. Tears well in my eyes
and I look at mbuso as he snaps photos of
me and the kids then the four of us.

“ can I feed them? ” the nurse smiles and

helps me take off the gown off my
shoulders and arms then places each one
on my nipple. At first it kind hurts then I
doesn’t. I look at then as they suckle for
dear life. Mom was right. They look like
there handsome dad. “ your husband will
have to suckle on your nipples to open
them so the babies won’t have trouble
getting milk. I look at mbuso and he looks at
me smirks. “ you are a beautiful family. I will
leave you and come back when I have to
bath them. ” she says then leaves.
“ I can’t believe I didn’t give them their first
bath. ” I say regrettably. “ I didn’t too
because you were fighting for your life and
love? We are going to give them many
baths. ” he says snapping more pictures. “
what are their names? ” I ask him. “ I
haven’t named them yet. I was waiting for
you to wake up. ” he says. “ which one is
the oldest cause they are identical mbuso?.
” I don’t know if I will be able to tell them
apart. “ the one who’s going to cry the
loudest is the oldest one. ” he says and I
giggle. “ it’s so nice to hear you laughing.
Don’t ever me leave me lungile. Promise
me that. ”

“ I will never leave you mbuso. Ever!. ” he

kisses me and we watch our kids. I think I
know who’s the oldest. His eyebrows are
frowning like he’s already pissed at the
world. Yep he is definitely mbuso’s son.
There’s a knock on the door and we look up
and it’s my dad. He looks revealed. He
comes and hugs us tight. He looks at me
and nods. I know he wants to say
something but he’s feeling very emotional. I
kiss him and wipe his tears. My brother
comes and he too looks like a mess. We
hug tight. The longest and he cries. He
makes me cry too. “ don’t ever leave me. ”
he says and I nod. Bonga comes too and
hugs me too. Sbusiso is also a mess. All
these men look like they aged and haven’t
bathed or slept. He hugs me too and
apologizes. I tell him it’s okay. Zipho
surprisingly is here too. “ ave une drama!.
Sowungaze ufuna ukusishiya kanjalo nje
ungakokotizi kahle ekhaya khanyo? Hay
ngeke! ( you are so full of drama. So you
wanted to die and leave us like that while
you haven’t performed your wifely duties at
my parent’s house? No you can’t! ) ” he
says. I laugh through my tears as we hug.
Frank hugs me too then mah and she’s a
crying mess. Mbuso’s aunt hugs me too
crying. Sims gets in and she looks hesitant.
She has a bag with her then she pulls out a
pyjama button up top “ uhm can you all turn
around and I want to dress luh. ” she’s
avoiding my eyes but her face looks red
and her eyes are so puffy. The men turn the
she takes one of the babies and gives one
twin to aunt lwethu and the other to my
aunt. She helps me wear my pyjama top
and as she’s buttoning it her hands are
shaking. I stop her and holds her hands.
She’s not looking at me. Sims?. ” she wipes
her to see are then quickly gets up and I
sigh.

Sims is not the type of person that talks

about her feelings easily. I know her and I
know she’s hurting. She won’t talk now.
She just needs some time. She tells them
to turn again and they do. They give me my
kids and I hold the both of them. Mbuso's
mom and dad come in too and his dad hugs
me after deciding if he should or not. His
mom though hasn’t looked at me or is
coming come hug me too. I look at mbuso
and he’s having a silent conversation with
his dad. I frown. I Rembert what thembi
said and I also remember what my mom
said about moving on and forgetting about
things that hurt me. She didn’t hurt me I
know but I feel like she’s also responsible
for thembi being in our lives. “ mah? ” she
looks at me and cries.

“ I’m sorry my child. I never thought things

would turn out this way and she would….
I’m so sorry. ” she’s hurting and mbuso
scoffs shaking his head. What happened
between them?. “ mah don’t cry and it
wasn’t your fault. Thembi had her mind set
and she was going to do whatever she
wanted to do. You did not tell her to do all
the things she did. It was her and Preston.
No one else. Can I get hug please? ” she
comes then sits beside me and gives me a
mom hug. We hug each making sure don’t
hurt my little ones. “ I forgive you ” I whisper
in her ear and she nods.

She gets up and I look at all of them. “

sicelo where is lesego? ” I ask him. “ she’s
at your house with the kids. ” I nod. I was
hoping she would be here too but I
understand. “ zipho where’s your future
wife? ” they all laugh and look at him. He
brushes his head “ she’s at her flat. ” he
says and I nod. “ thank you for the love you
are showing me right now. I had doubts
about Preston and should have told my
husband what I was suspecting after he told
everyone about the twins and when I saw
him getting aroused looking at my legs. ” I
look at mbuso and he looks shocked. “ I
wanted to tell you at night but I just wanted
to be sure and so I decided that I will tell
you in the morning but then he was one
step ahead of me. I promise to never put
my life in danger and never bring a stranger
into our lives and homes because it almost
cost me my life and my kids life. I hope you
will all forgive me for putting you through
this ordeal. ” they agree and mbuso takes
my hand.

“ baba. What are their names? ” I ask my

father in law and he looks surprised. “ I
thought you would want to name them
yourself? ” I shake my head. “ I thought so
too but we thought it will be best if you two
grandfathers would name your grandkids. ”
I look at my dad and he looks emotional. I
think they deserve that. We will name the
next kids we will have by God’s grace. “ I
wasn’t expecting that thank you my
children. ” his dad says. “ I will name the
oldest Bhekumbuso Gumede and the last
born is Bhekizizwe Gumede.” Yep I did
think he will probably go to that line of
names. We look at my dad. “ bhekumbuso
sibonelo Gumede and the last born is
Bhekizizwe siboniso Gumede. Our grand
children. Thank you for giving us the honour
to name your children. ”

“ I love their names. Right baby ” he nods
smiling. I look at Sims and she’s smiling but
I know what happened shook her. The
nurse comes and takes my babies away but
promises to bring the back because I want
them to sleep in the same room as me. The
family hesitantly leaves and it’s just me and
mbuso. “ how is Sims? ” he sighs. “ she’s a
mess. She hasn’t talked since you got here
and bonga doesn’t know what to do. ” I nod.
“ she is like that. I will talk to her. ” he
agrees. “ I think she got scared that if it
happens that you die she will be left alone.”
I know because that’s exactly what I’m
thinking. “ get in bed with me and hold me
please? ” he smiles. “ I thought you would
never ask. ” he says getting in and holds
me. “ ngiyakuthanda mkami. Mama
wabantwana bami. ( I love you my wife.
Mother of my kids ” I kiss his cheek. “ I love
you husband. ”
CHAPTER 53
CHAPTER 53

LUNGI.

We are on our way home and I’m sitting with

sims at the back seat. She’s holding my last
born who is sleeping soundly in her arms. It’s
like he’s hers cause she took him the moment
she got in my room. My husband was right
when he said the oldest is the one that cries
loudly and my baby my last born is sweet and
doesn’t cry a lot. I can just see that Sibonelo is
the one that is going to give us trouble. “ What
are you smiling about. ” sims asks and I laugh. “
that I love you and I’m happy that you’re here
with me. ” she looks at me and I see her eyes
getting misty. Sims is really hurt and seeing her
like this is breaking my heart. “ I’m here now
and I’m okay. I won’t leave you. I promise. ”

She shakes her head then wipes her tears. “ well

talk about this when we get home. I need you to
help me with the kids. You know I’m new to
this even though I have been with you when the
boys were born it’s not the same now cause I
have to do most of the work and so I need you
to be strong. Ok mamkhulu? ” she giggles and I
smile. That’s what I want to see. Her smiling
and not crying. “ I can’t believe they are
actually here. They look so beautiful luh. My
babies. I missed this new smell of babies ” she
says smelling my son. “ please stop kissing my
son on the mouth sims cause I don’t know what
the mouth was licking last night ” mbuso says
looking at sims then laughs when he sees her
shocked face. We laugh at her.
“ Well for your information. I didn’t kiss him on
his mouth. I just pecked his little pink chubby
cheek. ” she laughs. We get home and I am so
glad to be back. I notice though that it looks like
there are new security guys. “ are our security
guys on leave or something? ” I ask my
husband. “ no. I fired all of them ” he says
switching the engine off. Mbuso though. Why
did he fire them cause it was not their fault. I
will ask him when we are alone. Right now I
just want to be in my house.

I am so glad that they didn’t stitch me. My

babies came out healthy and ohk. Mbuso though
asked the doctor when are we going to have sex
and the doctor said we should at least wait 2
months. His mom and aunt however told him
that he must wait for 6 months and he laughed
like what they were telling him was crazy. I
hope we will both wait before we have sex
again. I have to talk to dad and sicelo and tell
them what mom said. I still can’t believe I had
that encounter with her. I hope I am going to
look as beautiful as her when I’m older. I told
mbuso about my encounter when I was in the
coma and what my mom said about him. It
touched him deeply and thanked her.

My husband opens the door and my house

smells amazing. I see 4 little people sitting on
the carpet watching cartoons. Sims boys and
Lesego’s kids. “ hi guys how are you? ” the kids
stand up and sims kids run to me to look at the
babies “ good morning aunty luh. Wow you
came with two babies? ” I laugh and then they
follow their mom to the kitchen I look at my
nephew and niece and they are quietly watching
us. “ aren’t you guys going to come and give
your aunt hugs and kisses? ” they look at each
other then they smiles. “ I could really use hugs
and kisses right now to feel better. ” they shyly
come towards me and stand next to me. I give
mbuso his son and he goes to the kitchen
following sims who went straight there.
I pull the chair and sit facing them so we can be
on the same level. “ I’m your dad’s sister and
my name is aunty Lungi. That means the both of
you are my nephew and niece. So you want to
tell me your names too? ” I give them my
warmest and kindest smile. “ is that you on that
picture? ” kamo asks pointing at the potrait in
the lounge mbuso did for me. “ yeah that’s me.
You like it? ” kagiso looks at his sister and
shakes his head. “ aunty asked us our names
kamo. My name is kagiso aunty and this kamo
my little sister ” he says. Kamo pouts looking at
her brother “ but I was going to tell her kagiso. ”
she folds her hands and pretends to be upset and
I giggle. “ do you like that picture kamo? ” she
smiles her toothless cute smile. “ yes aunty.
What happened to your hair? did your mommy
cut it too? ” I giggle. “ no she didn’t. Someone
else did. Do you think aunty looks beautiful
without her hair? ”

She nods. “ you look like my daddy so you’re

beautiful ” what? I laugh and I look at kagiso
and he laughs. “ girls don’t look like boys silly.
” kamo looks at him confused. “ but aunty looks
like papa and grandpa. ” they are so cute. I love
them. “ no she doesn’t. Aunty is beautiful and
boys aren’t beautiful. ” kamo rolls her eyes and
palms her cheek and I laugh. “ aunty is still
waiting for her hugs and kisses ” kamo opens
her arms and I pull her close and shower her
with kisses all over her face and she giggles. I
pull kagiso too and he laughs and ducks my
kisses when I try to kiss him on the mouth but I
eventually land one. He laughs and gets shy. “
don’t you want me to kiss you on the mouth? ”
he looks down shyly and shakes his head “
well I am going to kiss you everyday until you
tell me why you don’t want me to kiss you on
the mouth. ” I tell him giggling.

“ no aunty. Girls won’t like me if you kiss me in

the mouth. ” he mumbles it and I laugh. Oh my
God. At 8 years old?. I laugh. “ I won’t kiss you
on the mouth then. Aunty promises. ” he
giggles. “ where’s your mommy? ”. I turn
around and see my brother. He was watching us
the whole entire time. “ how long have you been
standing there? ” I ask him getting up. “ long
enough. Thank you. ” he says. I cock my head
to the side. “ for welcoming them sis. Thank
you. ” he really loves them. “ well they are your
kids and I love them too. Where’s Lesego? ” I
ask him. He takes my hand and pulls me to him
and we hug. He is careful not to hurt my
shoulder.

“ I don’t ever want to experience what we all

went through the past week. You scared me luh.
You really did. I can’t lose you again. ” I
nod. We stand like that just holding each other.
“ I have to talk to you and dad. Where is he? ”
he takes a deep breath then looks at me. “ he is
at the farm with mbuso's dad and uncle Victor.
He stayed at the farm so he can watch thembi
and Preston. “ I’m sorry for what they did to
you. We were careless with your safety and
everyone else’s. We won’t do it again. ” I nod. “
take me to meet your future wife. ” he laughs.
We enter my kitchen and it’s my mother in-law
my aunt sis nonto Sims sbu bonga. My husband
and my future sister in-law. They are watching
the babies sleeping and they are cooing and
taking pictures of the babies. She looks up and
smiles when her eyes land on my brother. That’s
so sweet. “ love come here. ” she comes and
stands next to him. “ you have met almost
everyone but you haven’t met one of the most
important people in my life. I respect her and
love her dearly. When you see her she’s a
reflection of our mother. She looks exactly like
her. This is Lungi Gumede my sister. Sis. This
is the woman who has my heart and my soul.
Lesego Motaung. ” I look at her and she
blushes. “ hi lesego nice to finally meet you and
I’m sorry that we are meeting like this for the
very first time. ” I hug her and she hugs me back
and she blushes looking down “ thank you for
welcome me and my….our kids. And for the
lovely house you found for us. The kids and I
love it. ” she sounds so sweet and she’s very
beautiful.

“ how are you feeling though? ” she asks. “ I’m

just glad to be back home to my family. That’s
all that matters and I’m thankful for that. I
thought I was going to die. I was terrified for
my life and my kids life. I knew that woman
was going to kill me.” I move and sit next to
my husband and I look at our kids. Everyone
gets silent and listen to me. “ you can smell and
see evil from her face. She reeks of it. It felt like
I was with Satan face to face. She made my
blood run cold. Her eyes had this cold and
vacant look. I think Preston saw another side of
her that he has never seen before and he got
scared when she shit me without thinking twice.
He begged her not to kill me. Their plan was
that they were going to keep me until I have
birth then she would take my babies away but
then she changed her mind. She wanted to give
me a caesarean while I was watching and then
kill me after. Preston begged her not to do it but
she was adamant that she is doing it then
Preston said he will do it cause he doesn’t want
me to die because he doesn’t my blood on his
hands. That room I was in looked like a hospital
theatre room it have everything you can think
off. I knew that if my husband doesn’t find me
on time he was going to find me dead and our
kids gone with that psycho.” My husband looks
at his mother and I can rage all over his
face. They all look at me shocked. Sims comes
to me and hugs me from behind and cries.
I really have to talk to Sims alone.

“ Mah he was going to find me dead and our

kids gone with that psycho.” My husband looks
at his mother and I can rage all over his
face. They all look at me shocked. Sims comes
to me and hugs me from behind and cries.
I really have to talk to Sims alone.

“ Mah I don’t know what promises you made to

that girl cause she said you sold her dreams. She
said I was living the life that was meant to be
hers cause you made promised and sold her
dreams. She wanted to make both of you mbuso
and sbu to pay and so I was collateral damage.
She waited and waited until she found the
perfect opportunity when I moved here mbuso.
She has been watching us right under our noses.
Am I ever going to feel safe?. I know I brought
Preston into our lives but I honestly thought that
he was just a person who needed love and a
family but they planned this. I got kidnapped by
someone we lived and dined with. I gave him a
roof under my house. What if he did many
things that we don’t know about?.” mbuso looks
frustrated. He looks like the whole world is on
his shoulders.

Sis nonto takes my hand and wipes her tears. “

I’m back sis nonto and I hope no one is going to
come into our family again and try to kill one of
us. You know while I was in a coma. I saw my
mom and talked to her. She told me that thembi
was going to kill me. You were going to find me
dead mbuso had you arrived a moment later.
She asked me to not let any strangers into our
lives. She didn’t mean you lesego if that’s what
you’re thinking.” I tell her and she looks
relieved “ all I’m saying is we should all be
careful about the people around us and the
people who will want to come into our family.
It’s going to be hard to trust a stranger cause we
won’t know if they will be here with true
intentions or not.”

They all nod. “ well I’m just glad that your

husband found you in time luh. Cause if you had
died I think mbuso would have killed all of us
then himself. ” my aunt says and they laugh. “ I
meant it when I said I was going to kill myself
had you died. I will not live in this world
without you luh. I will follow you even in death.
Where you go. I go. ” he says kissing my cheek.
I love him. “ since the kids are sleeping can
you guys watch them. I want to talk to Sims.
Lesego we will have our time alone so we can
talk okay? ” she nods and my husband looks at
us worriedly “ I don’t want the two of you
crying in there. Sims thank you for being strong
for us and being the best sister in-law ” he hugs
her. Ok mbuso never touches another woman
besides me and his mother. I don’t know why he
does that and I have never asked him why.
Everyone looks at him surprised. “ I was taking
care of my sisters family ” she says. “ our
family ” mbuso says. I’m blessed to have them
in my life. I kiss my husband then get up and we
go to my bedroom.

“ let’s go to my bedroom ” she emphasizes the ‘

my ‘ part and I laugh. We close the door then
get in bed and lay down facing each other. “
how’s your coochie feeling? ” we both laugh out
loud. I wasn’t expecting her to say that. “ sis it
fucken hurts. I’m even afraid of going to the
look and I don’t think I want to get pregnant
anytime soon. Well I think maybe when the kids
are like 10. I felt like I was losing my mind.
Everything in my body was hurting. You didn’t
tell me giving birth hurts so much. ” she laughs
“ I did tell you twice and you saw me when I
was experiencing the labour pains. ”

“ seeing and experiencing are two totally

different things.” I tell her. “ but now we are
both moms even though it wasn’t exactly your
time. How did we not see who Preston really is?
”

“ he pretended to be this gay and Fabulous

person. He put on this persona and we bought it.
We didn’t know he had an agenda. ” she sighs. “
uncle Victor just came to my place and picked
us up and drove here. He didn’t say anything
and I thought that maybe you were going into
labour. Never in a million years did I ever think
that you were kidnapped by Preston worst of all.
Mbuso lost it luh!. He was scary. I think he was
close to losing his mind. You know he only
slept at hospital ever since you go there.” I am
not surprised. “ I was scared too Sims. I really
was. I saw my life flash before my eyes and I
thought that my story can’t just end like this. I
thought that what happened to my mom was
going to happen to me only this time I won’t see
my kids grow. ”

I wipe her tears. “ I was scared. I thought you

were going to die and I was going to be left
alone. First it was thami then I thought it was
going to be you and it scared me. I thought that
why do the people I love the most have to die by
someone else’s hand. It broke me. What
happened to you luh has left a scar in my heart
in the same place where thami left his…It grew
and I am scared now. Why do bad things happen
to you luh cause you are a wonderful person? .
Why do people always want to hurt you when
you didn’t even do anything bad to them?. It’s
not fair. It really isn’t. ” she cries and we hold
each other and cry. I am asking myself those
questions too.

“ You know Sims sometimes I think that I

attract bad luck and bad people in my life.
Sometimes I feel like I have this dark thing that
is always following me. ” she shakes her head
and looks at me. “ no don’t say that. Luh the
man we love do bad things. They kill people but
they don’t have bad luck and attract bad things.
So don’t say that about you cause if it was true
you wouldn’t have met your family met the man
who loves you you wouldn’t have all these
people around you who love you. You are
blessed luh and now you two have wonderful
boys that you were blessed with. So don’t say
that. ” I hear her but I can’t t help how I feel. “ I
was hoping for a little girl you know. A mini
me.. ” we both giggle. “ yeah cause Lord knows
we need women in this family. Too many men
and boys. ” she says.

“ but we have little kamo now. She’s the only

girl surrounded by boys and I think they are
driving her crazy.” She laughs. “ she came to
me and told me that they didn’t want to play
with her because they didn’t have time to play
girl games. ” we laugh. “ They are respectful
kids. I love them and the boys love them too. ”
Sims say. “ are you okay though Sims. I don’t
like seeing you like this?. ” I tell her.

“ and I don’t like seeing that bad things keep

following and happening to you. When is it
going to end luh?. My aunt and uncle are dead
but still. It’s like they are recruiting people from
the dead to come and collect from you. ” if she
didn’t make sense I was going to laugh. “ it’s
like they didn’t die. They multiplied. ” we get
silent. “ why didn’t you tell me that you were
suspicious about Presto. ” I’m feeling sleepy. “ I
don’t know. I guess I didn’t want it to be true
what I was seeing or suspecting. I was really
hoping that I was wrong but when I saw him
getting a hard on when he looked at my legs.. I
knew.. I knew something was seriously wrong
and I made a mistake of not telling mbuso what
I saw. We could have avoided everything had I
told him when he asked what was wrong. ”

“ It doesn’t matter now. I’m just glad that your

safe and back. Don’t keep things from me luh
okay? ” I learned that the hard way. “ I promise
I won’t. Mbuso is not himself and I’m really
worried about him and his relationship with his
mother. ” I tell her and she looks away away. “
what’s going on sims? Are they hiding
something from me? ” she takes a deep breath
then tells everything bonga told her about what
really happened between thembi mbuso and sbu.
I am so shocked. That’s why mbuso is not
talking to his mom and now it kind of makes
sense as to why thembi said that his mother sold
her dreams. I never expected that from his mom.
Ever. But I don’t think it’s her fault because
she didn’t know that thembi was going to do
this..

“ Luh? ” I frown cause she looks like she wants

to tell me but she is scared. “ why do you look
nervous. ” she sits up and I groan I will have to
sit up too. “ I think bonga's mom doesn’t like
me.” What?. No!. I sit up and look at her. “ no
simphiwe why would you say that? ” I don’t
like this. “ I’m serious luh. Every time I’m
around her I get this vibe from her and when I
talk to her she will sometimes answer what I
asked. If I am making a conversation with her
she will pretend to be doing something on her
phone. It hurts me luh. ” she wipes her tears.

Sims is dealing with a lot and it hurts me to hear

that mbuso’s mom doesn’t like her. “ maybe
you guys just need to have something in
common that will bring you closer. I don’t have
that close relationship with her too but from
what I’ve seen she’s a good mom to them and
she doesn’t strike me as someone who will treat
you like that and I’m not saying that you are
lying. I know you would never lie to me and say
something like that about their mother. Does she
also ignore the boys? ” she shakes her head. “
from what I’ve seen she seems to like them and
they love her. I’ve told bonga about this and it is
creating this tension between us and I don’t
want that luh. I love him but I am scared that
what if his mom doesn’t approve of our
relationship because I have kids from two
different men?. What if bonga decides to end
our relationship. I can’t lose him luh. ”

“ hey look at me. You are an amazing woman a

fucken hot mom and the best sister ever. Your
kids are a blessing to you and you will not be
ashamed that they have two different dads. Who
ever judges you can jump off the nearest cliff
and kill themselves. No one has a right to judge
you whether it’s their mom or someone else. His
mom will see that his happiness is with you and
there is nothing she can do about that. If she
doesn’t like you screw her because bonga is
lucky that he is loved by this wonderful person
who’s funny and fabulous. Focus on your
relationship with bonga and let him deal with
his mom. If bonga is anything like mbuso then I
doubt his mom would convince him to end
things with you. He will tell her to ship in or
ship out. ” she smiles and agrees with me.

“ I think she would have preferred that his son

falls for someone who doesn’t have kids like
him.” I disagree. “ if that girl didn’t have an
abortion bonga would have 2 kids by now. Sims
look at how she forced that girl on mbuso and
what happened later?. We almost lost our kids
and my life because of her actions so she should
take a lesson in there and just let her kids be
happy. All she has to do is support them and be
there for them like a mother should. ” she
giggles and I frown.

“ Look at you. Speaking like a true mom. ” she

says “ so you want me to talk to her and find out
what’s wrong? ”

“ No luh don’t do or say anything. Don’t even

tell mbuso please. ” she begs me.. “ I’m sure
mbuso already knows. Bonga maybe has told
him and if there’s anyone that can talk some
sense into her it’s my husband. I’m here for you
Sims anytime. I won’t let anyone come between
us. Not even their mom. Whether she accepts
you or not promise me it won’t affected our
relationship. ”
“ I promise you. ” I get up and my shoulder is
paining a little. “ I hate that she cut off your hair
but you still smoking hot. You don’t even look
like you just gave birth. ” I laugh “ Well it’s
courtesy of Sims mazibuko ” she laughs. “ bitch
please. I love spending rich people’s money. ” I
laugh. “ ok I want my kids now. I miss them. ”
we leave her bedroom and go down stairs. I
don’t see mbuso and our kids. “ where are my
kids and husband? ” I ask mah.

“ he’s in your bedroom sulking. You’d swear

he’s the one that has just given birth. ” they
laugh. I leave them and go to my bedroom and
find mbuso and our kids sleeping on the bed. He
looks so exhausted and has his hand on both of
them I smile. I see his phone unlock it then take
snaps of them. My little ones are sleeping
peacefully but I’m sure they are hungry. I lift up
siboniso and he opens his eyes and I fall in love.
“ hello nana this is mommy.. Yes… aren’t you
so handsome my sweet little boy….. Let
mommy feed you then we’ll feed your brother
who is frowning like his daddy even when his
sleeping but not you my handsome little man.” I
see something that’s like a smile and I laugh.
My hand is cramping though.

“ mbuso? ” he doesn’t hear me.. I shake him

again and he quickly wakes up looking alarmed.
“ hey it’s me. Are you okay? ” he rubs his eyes
then looks at me. “ we’re you having a bad
dream? ” he shakes his head no. “ can you take
him. I want to feed him but my hand is
cramping and I’m afraid I will drop him. ” he
gets up and gently takes him from me. “ you
won’t drop him baby don’t worry. ” he assures
me but I shake my head. “ what if my hand loses
it’s functionality mbuso and I’m never able to
hold both my babies? ” I take off my top then sit
on the bed. He gently places the baby on my
arms and I breast feed him. “ your arm will be
fine baby. It is like this cause they had to
operate and fix the damage that… that bitch did
and so you still feel it paining and cramping. ” I
nod.

“ I need to ask you something and be honest

about it. ” I nod. “ I want to deal with Preston
and thembi. I want to know that you will be
okay with what ever I am going to do to them ”
I knew he would want to do it himself. “ I wish
you wouldn’t do that but I understand. Do what
needs to be done. I don’t ever want to see the
both of them in my life ever again.” I tell him. “
thank you. I promise to come home clean to the
kids. I won’t bring anything bad back. ” hmm it
makes me think about me. Maybe I need to be
cleansed so bad thinks will stop happening to
me. I have to talk to him about it but not now.

“ when are you thinking of dealing with them?.

” he gets up and undresses. “ tomorrow. ” my
husband looks sexy and he laughs. “ thank you
baby” he says “ for what?. ” I frown. “ you said
I look sexy ” oh my God. I shake my head. “ the
nursery is still not finished can the kids have to
sleep with us. ” he looks confused. “ sims and
lesego finished it and there is no way I am we
are sleeping with the kids in here. ”

“ Why not mbuso?. My babies are little. They

want their mommy ” he chuckles. “ your babies
have been sleeping alone for a while week and
they will be fine. This big baby wants to cuddle.
He is sulking “ just for tonight only baby
please? ” I give him my best smile. “ fine
tonight only. ” I wink at him and he laughs. I
just to watch them sleeping all night.

BONGA.

The relationship between my mom and his sons

is not great at the moment. Mbuso doesn’t want
to talk to her and I am upset with her for the
treatment she has been giving sims. She might
think that I didn’t notice or maybe I don’t care
but the whole week I have been watching her
and it is not good. Even before luh's kidnapping
when I introduced sims to them she was not
very receptive of her but my dad on the other
side was very welcoming and he’s fond of sims.
The guys left to go to the farm and left me and
mbuso and our mom. Luh is sleeping her aunt
my aunt ntoo then Lesego celeste are outside
with sims and the twins and the other kids are
playing outside too.
“ what’s wrong brother? ” mbuso asks me and I
look at our mother. She’s looking at me like
daring me to say something. “ you know ma that
look would have scared me if I was still young
but it doesn’t anymore. Ma here doesn’t like
sims. She doesn’t like the woman I love and it’s
hurting me. I would like to know what issue
does she have with her? . Why doesn’t she like
her? ” my brother shakes his head.

“ You know I thought that maybe I was stressed

because of luh when I noticed that you tend to
ignore sims if she’s making a conversation with
you. I then noticed that she would sometimes
leave when you get inside the room and now I
know why. Why don’t you like sims mah?.” She
looks at us and places her tea cup down. “
mbuso I am so sorry… . ”
“ hay kahle ma!. ( stop it right there!) We are
not talking about me here. You have to
apologize to bonga and tell us why you don’t
like the woman he loves. ”

“ I don’t like her because I don’t think she’s

good enough for you bonga! She has two kids
with different men for God’s sake. Why
couldn’t you meet a woman who has no kids
and fall in love with her than falling for a
woman who has kids and being a father to those
kids!. ” we both look at her shocked.

“ mah! I cannot believe you’ve just said that.

What does sims having kids have anything to do
with you?. Their fathers support them and they
do spend time with them. They are not some
dead beats believe me cause if they were that
would have made things very easy for me. You
did not raise us to judge other people and look
down on them. USimphiwe ma is a wonderful
woman and a great mother. You would know
and see that if you got to know her ma cause the
way you’re treating is really not good. It’s
unacceptable. ”

“ Watch how you talk to me bonga!. I’m still

your mother and you will not talk to me like I’m
one of her kids. ”

“ no mah you are wrong. why are you bringing

her kids into this. I don’t buy this story of yours
that it’s about her having kids. What is the real
reason that makes you not like sims and please
don’t lie to us?! ” my brother asks her.

“ I don’t want her to be part of my family

because she’s from that family. She carries the
gene of those evil people that did despicable
things to luh. What if she is like all of them?.
You might have forgiven her uncle but I have
not and I don’t want their blood line in my
family!. ”

“ What?. Don’t involve my wife in this!. Don’t

you dare use her and her past to make yourself
feel better as to why you don’t want sims!. Luh
was raised by them not sims. Sims has her own
mother mom and her mother is not a violent
person and she did a damn great job. Because of
sims and Victor’s support luh accepted her life
because there was at least people who were
there for here. If there was anyone that was
going to inherit their cruel ways and evilness it
was going to be my wife ma not sims!. Genes or
not ma no person is born evil. They learn to be
evil. It’s either they are taught or something
happened to make them that way. I can’t believe
you right now!. ” mbuso is mad and so am I.
“ One day you will understand mbuso when
you’re kids are grown. You will see cause you
are a father now. ”

“ yaz ma uyamangaza!. ( you are so

unbelievable). If bonga's ex girlfriend the one
that aborted his kid then got pregnant again and
then got a miscarriage because she didn’t tell
him that she did an arbotion. If she didn’t do all
those things bonga would have had 2 kids and
let’s say what if he met sims and she didn’t have
kids. That the roles were reversed. Would you
have had a problem with her? ” mbuso asks
her?

“ No I wouldn’t have because… . ”

“ aren’t you being a hypocrite ma?. She would

be expected to accept his kids and love them but
when a man is suppose to do the same it’s not
accepted?. Why does society allow this to
happen?. I wouldn’t be surprised if you were
going to o say to bonga that the only way you
will accept sims into our family is if she leaves
her kids behind. Am I right ma? ” mbuso asks
her and our mom looks at mbuso looks at me
and we both see guilt written all over her face
and we both curse. I cannot believe my mother
right now!.

“ Mah! You would have asked me that and

expected her to leave her kids behind?!. The
kids she birthed and took care of?. How could
you expect that from her ma when you are a
mother too?. ” I ask her.

“ it happens all the time bonga. She wouldn’t be

the first woman to have given up her kids. She
knows this too. I want you to be happy and have
your own kids that you will bring into this
world. Why couldn’t you find a woman like
lungi or your brothers girlfriend?. You had to go
for the that has baggage. ” she says and mbuso
loses it.

“ mah! Don’t being my wife into this!. You

keep her out of this!. You know mah the honest
truth is lungi is the one that came with baggage.
She didn’t ask for it but it was hers the moment
the mazibuko’s wanted to kill all of them.
Calling someone’a kids baggage is the worst
thing you have ever said. I loved lungi with all
her baggage and I still do and I will forever will.
If she had kids when I met her that wouldn’t
have changed a thing. I would have loved her
with her kids. I am so disappointed in you ma.
Never in my life did I ever think that those kind
of words would come out of your mouth!. ” my
mother’s words cut deep. So deep and I don’t
think I would forget them anytime soon.
“ what about your kids ma?.. You know we kill
people and we have done things you don’t know
about and you don’t wish to know. So do you
think that her mother would be happy and
accept me knowing that I have killed people and
we are still going to kill people?. You act like
we are perfect but we are not. If someone should
be worried about their bloodline is her mother
and not you. You know why you don’t like her
and you know what ma? I don’t care. I am going
to marry her whether you like it or not. If you
won’t support me and accept the woman I love
and want to spend the rest of my life with then
ma I want nothing to do with you! Nothing!. ”

“ over a woman that you hardly know bong?!.

You would choose her over me your own
mother?!. ” I laugh shaking my head “ without
thinking twice!. ” I tell her. I get up and leave
them. I hear my mother crying and I see sims
opening our bedroom door. She heard
everything? I thought that she was outside?. I
open the door and I find her sitting on the bed
crying. I sit down next to her and hold her. She
cries in my arms breaking my heart. “ I’m sorry
baby. ” she shakes her head.

“ why did you talk to your mother like that

bonga?. She didn’t raise you to be disrespectful
to her. It was wrong
Sponsored
lungi is the one that came with baggage. She
didn’t ask for it but it was hers the moment the
mazibuko’s wanted to kill all of them. Calling
someone’a kids baggage is the worst thing you
have ever said. I loved lungi with all her
baggage and I still do and I will forever will. If
she had kids when I met her that wouldn’t have

mother’s words cut deep. So deep and I don’t
think I would forget them anytime soon.
“ what about your kids ma?.. You know we kill

“ why did you talk to your mother like that

bonga?. She didn’t raise you to be disrespectful
to her. It was wrong it was very wrong and you
have to go and apologize to how you talked to
her ” what? “ you want me to go and apologize
for what exactly sims?. I told her the truth and I
won’t apologize for it. She can’t hate you just
because you are related to those scumbags who
are dead. You didn’t choose this baby and she’s
being unfair!. ” she’s crazy

“ if there was maybe a chance that she might

have accepted me…well it is gone now. She’s
never going to accept me because you chose me
over her. To her I’m always going to the woman
who came between her and her son. She’s never
going to accept me now because of what you
said bonga. You broke her heart when you said
you want nothing to do with her. You gave her
an ultimatum. She loves you bonga and no
mother wants her son to say those things. If my
sons said the same thing I would be heartbroken
and devastated. All mothers know what it’s best
for their children and they want them to be
happy… . ”

“ kahle simphiwe!. Angisiyona ingane Mina! (

hold on a minute. I am not a child!.). I’m a
grown ass man who can make his own decisions
and I don’t need my mother for that or to end
our relationship with you just because I want to
make her happy cause I will not. If she won’t
accept my decision that I love you and want you
in my life then after the wedding baby it will be
the last time I ever set my foot in my father’s
house. For you simphiwe I will.” I mean each
and every word I have just said. “ you will not
bonga because I won’t come between you and
your family. I will not be the cause of tension
and fights. I am not that woman and I am not
going to start now. We have to end things. I am
ending this relationship between us. I love you
too much to come between you and your mom. I
am sorry but I can’t.” she cries and I cannot
believe what she has just said.

“ did you not hear a word I said to you. I love

you and I want to spend my whole life with
you!. How can you just make a decision like
that?. We are in this relationship together!. We
both agreed that we will begin a relationship so
you don’t get to make that decision about our
relationship!. Damn simphiwe! ” why is mother
doing this to me?. “ Lower your voice bonga. I
have made that decision for myself. I will not
stay in a relationship where one of the most
important people in your life and who you love
very much is not happy with our relationship
bonga. Whether we like it or not she will always
look at me as thuli and sipho's niece. You can’t
force her to accept that. I am sorry but I just
can’t!. ”

“ simphiwe please don’t do this. I love you and I

want you. Isn’t that enough for you? ” she can’t
do this to me. “ what hurts me the most bonga is
that your mother called my kids baggage… .. ”
she sobs and my eyes get teary. “ my kids are
not baggage and they never will. I know that I
will never be happy with you knowing that your
mother doesn’t like me or want me to be part of
her family. I need her to accept me and love me
bonga because she is your mother but what she
said… calling my kids that is not acceptable and
I will never forgive her because those words
will always hang on the back of my mind. ” she
gets up to leave and I stop her.

“ sthandwa sam ( my love) you are upset and

you don’t mean what you are saying. Sims
please I’m begging you. Don’t do this to us
please!. ” I pull her close to me and she hugs me
tight and cries. I comfort her but deep down I
am so mad at my mother. I am really mad at her.
“ we will get through this baby. Don’t give up
on us. I won’t let my mother come between us. ”
she shakes her head and my heart sinks. She
can’t possibly mean it. She can’t. “ it’s over
bonga. I’m sorry but I can’t. ” she pulls away
and runs out of the bedroom. My knees get
weak and I sit down on the bed and my tears fall
down. How can she just give up on our
relationship like that just because she wants my
mother to accept her?!.

I know the real reason why she is hurt and angry

is because my mother called the boys baggage.
The door opens and mbuso gets in and sits next
to me “ I am so mad at our mother right now. I
am so sorry brother. Tell me what to do to fix
this for you. ” I wipe my tears and shake my
head. “ can you take back everything she said
cause sims heard everything. Our mother called
her kids baggage mbuso!. Why the hell would
sims stay with me after my mother has called
her kids that?. What other names does she call
her and her kids when we are not there?. When
did our mother become this cold woman and not
the loving and caring woman who raised us?. ”

“ I wish I knew brother but I don’t know.

Maybe she thinks that she is losing us because
we have found the loves of our lives. Maybe she
feels like we won’t need her anymore. But what
do I know cause right now I’m in shock and feel
your pain. ”

“ at least she loves your wife so you have

nothing to worry about. ” I tell him and I hate
the envy I’m feeling right now for my brother. “
she almost made me lose my wife bonga
because of her decisions. Thembi wouldn’t have
been in our lives if our mother wasn’t busy
trying to get me married to her. I’m not ready to
forgive her for what happened to luh. You know
mom has always preached that we are older and
we have to get married have kids and live our
lives but when you do the same thing she says
she doesn’t like it and won’t accept the person
you love. What kind of fucked up a shit is that?.
” he asks.

“ we have to talk to dad. He will have a talk

with her. Sims ended our relationship bro and
she meant it. ” he looks at me like I’m crazy. “
sims loves you bonga. She’s trying to protect
your relationship with ma. She might have said
it but I think that she is hurt and angry and
tomorrow you will see that she didn’t mean it. If
you love Sims the way I think you do then you
won’t let her slip away from you. Mom will get
over it because you will not spend the rest of
your life with her but with sims. She is the one
you will go back home to and sleep next to. So
don’t let mom take away your happiness.”
My brother is right. If I just let sims go she will
think that I agree with what my mom said when
I actually don’t. I have to prove to her and to the
boys that I love her and I will choose her and
the boys above anything else. She is important
to me. I love her and I love the boys too. I want
sims and her kids to be my family. I want all of
us to live together when we get married. I will
not let her give up on us. I know she loves me
and she wants to be with me as much as I do. I
will not let my mother chase sims away from
me. “ you are right. Sims is mine and nothing or
no one is going to take her away from me. Not
even our mom.”

“ if I was in your shoes I would have asked dad

to come and pick up his wife before I kick her
out. Mom could have said to me that lungi is a
witch and I still wouldn’t give a fucken damn.
You know why because I love my wife more
than mom. Luh’s happiness is my number one
priority. Fuck anyone else. Do what makes you
happy brother cause you don’t want to be this
uncle who is old has never married and doesn’t
have kids. You love those kids and they love
you too. Take them home brother under your
wing and protect them. Like how we do. They
are family. They are the kids of the woman you
love. They are your kids bonga. Do what is right
for your family brother. ”

“ ngiyabonga zalo ( thank you my brother.) ” he

nods. “ Let me go check on luh and the kids
then we are going to let some steam off cause
we had a long ass day. It’s time Preston and
thembi died. I want to focus on my family and
so do you. Take sims and the boys on a holiday
tomorrow. Just leave and don’t tell anyone. I
will organize the passports for her and the boys.
Take them out of the country she has also been
through a lot not luh only cause most of the
things affected her too. ” I know that no matter
what happens. My brother will always have my
back. He’s the best big brother and best friend
and I appreciate him a lot. I love him.

MBUSO.

We are all standing surrounding Preston

and thembi. Preston pissed on himself and
he smells of piss. He’s been crying and
whining like a little bitch that he is sicelo
had to shut him up. This psycho bitch on
the other hand has been silent and hasn’t
said anything. She is looking at all of us
straight in the face and she’s doesn’t look
afraid. It’s like she’s bored with us. Never in
my life have I wanted to kill someone like
this and I know I’m going to enjoy it. One
thing about thembi that sbu and I know is
this girl has guts. She evil to the core and
as long as she’s alive. None of us are safe.
Preston has been looking at me pleading
with his eyes and I feel sorry for him. I want
him to tell me and explain to me what did
he do with the recordings of me and luh.
What did he do to them and where is he
keeping them. “ Preston you were pleading
with them not to kill you cause you wanted
to talk. So talk I am here. ” he sniffs and it’s
getting on my last nerve. “ I’m sorry mbuso.
I really am. Is luh and the kids okay? ” I
take the chair and sit next to Preston and
look at him.

“ I’ve had one of the worst weeks of my life

Preston all because of you. My wife loved
and we all accepted you into our family.
You lied to us pretended to be not the
person you are. You were living under my
roof eating my food and we gave you a
room that is yours to show that we accept
you as one of us because you looked
like someone who had no family. Where
did we go wrong Preston. Did discriminate
against you? did we make you feel like you
were just an outsider? Tell me Preston what
did we do to you for you to want to hurt my
wife like this? ”

He is literally shaking and I don’t know what

is it that is scaring him. I talking to him
nicely not shouting or angry. “ I know you all
accepted me without any questions asked
and treated me like I am one of you and I
have never felt like I didn’t belong there
even though it was clear that I am not one
yours. Not many families would accept this
white ga….. ”
“ Preston. We all know here that you’re not
gay. So don’t lie to us. How did this plan of
yours and thembi getting together to try and
take my kids and kill my wife come about?.
” he looks at thembi and she’s looking at
him like you better shut your mouth.
Preston looks at me and shakes his head. I
sigh “ You really want to do this the hard
way huh? ” I get up open my tool box and
take this big screwdriver then sit down and
look at Preston. “ please…. Please mbuso
don’t kill me ” I take the screwdriver make
sure that I use all my strength and stab
Preston where I shot him and the mother
fucker screams. I pull the screwdriver put
and blood gushes out. “ talk Preston or else
I’m going to do the same on your other leg.
”

I guess he hates pain cause it doesn’t take

him long to start singing like a canary. “ I
opened my surgery 2 years back then
thembi found me after1 year later. I don’t
know how she found me but I got a call
from her and then I went to Durban and we
met. I was happy to see her because I still
loved her. She then told me what happened
to her and she wanted revenge against you
sbu and mbuso and his mother. She’s the
one that came with the whole plan of how I
was going get to close to all of you. She
has been keeping tabs on the both of you
and she found the opportunity when you luh
came to Ladysmith. She was following her
and when she found out hat she was
pregnant she told me that she knew luh
would contact me. I am legit mbuso I am a
real gynaecologist I didn’t lie about that.
The only thing I lied about was being gay. ”
this mother fucker thinks I’m stupid

“ Preston luh told me that you helped

thembi to set up the room where she was
going to take my kids and leave her dead
and you know what I really don’t care about
that now all I care about is why didn’t you
warn me that thembi was out to get me and
sbu? ” I want this to be over and done with
cause looking at Preston’s face is really
pissing me off. I want to be home with my
wife and my kids.

“ at first it was only a job that I was

supposed to do but then I got to know luh
and I realised that she is an amazing
person. A kind hearted person that wants
what is best for the people she loves and I
saw how everyone loves her and I too
started to fall for her. I was envious of her
life and how much you loved her and how
her brother and father loved her. It made
me feel jealous because I wanted that for
myself. I have never experienced that kind
of love you all showed me. I told thembi that
I didn’t want to do it. I wanted out and that
we shouldn’t hurt luh but she has
something on me and she threatened me
with it. So I had to do everything she
asked. She didn’t find anything that she
could use on sbu so she focused on you
cause you have luh.i swear to you when I
say that I didn’t want any part of it.”
“ I found listening devices in my house and
camera’s in my bedroom and the bathroom.
You watched my wife naked in her private
space. You were watching us the whole
entire time and listening. What did you do
with those recordings? ” he looks at thembi
and she looks at him shocked. “ you said
you didn’t get a chance to get the camera
and listening devices. You fucking lied to
me you idiot!. ” oh he did?.

“ wait what?. Preston had cameras and

spied on you? ” sicelo asks and I nod in
agreement. “ I found them the day he took
her. What did you do to them? Did you give
them to anyone to watch and see? ” he
shakes his head no furiously. “ I couldn’t
give them to her because she was going to
upload them in the internet on all porn sites.
She wanted to do that to her and I couldn’t
cause I love lungi and… . ” he doesn’t het
to finish cause I fucken punch him and
break his jaw and his teeth come out. He
screams. “ don’t you ever say that shit to
me. You fucken love my wife and yet you
allowed something to happen to her! Don’t
you ever say those words to me ever! You
hear me? ” he tires to nod. “ where the fuck
do you live? ” he gives us his address and
bonga types the location. “ check every
where and take everything electronic and
take it to my house.” He leaves with Frank.
“ Preston is there anything else you want to
tell me before I kill you that will make me
change my mind? ”

He groans and mumbles something and I

can’t hear him. “ you better speak now
Preston cause I want to go and see my wife
kids. You are taking so much of their time.
Speak fool!. ” he so it’s out blood then looks
at me. “ I tried mbuso to protect her I really
tried but thembi is very scary and… . ” I
laugh. I fucken laugh my lungs out and look
at him. “ you know Preston when I found
out that you kidnapped luh I really tried but
thembi is very scary and… . ” I laugh. I
fucken laugh my lungs out and look at him.
“ you know Preston when I found out that
you kidnapped luh I actually planned how I
was going to make you watch me take off
your skin while you’re still alive so you can
feel each and pain my wife felt. I wanted to
peel it off you but I’m not. I think all these
people in here have ways they want to kill
the both of you. I pity you and I’m scared of
what all these here are going to do to you.
You didn’t just kidnap my wife. She is
someone’s daughter and sister. Mapholoba
welcomed you in his home and you chose
to betray her so then will all deal with you.
All I’m asking from you brother is please
after you are done with this bitch cut her
head off and send it to her parents so we
can be sure that she’s never going to
reappear again.” I tell sbu.

“ are you sure mbuso? ” I sigh. “ I almost

lost the woman I love who’s my
everything and it scared me to death sbu. I
don’t ever want to feel that way ever again.
These two here don’t deserve to have my
time that they had already stole from us. My
body is here but my mind is with luh and
our kids. She just got released from the
hospital and I left her to come here and
deal with these two? No. I should be at
home with my wife and kids. She needs
rest and to be taken care of. I know you all
can handle this you don’t need me to do
that. What happened to luh made me
question how I live my life. I know we don’t
go around killing people but it’s people who
come to us and ask for trouble and I’m sick
of it. My wife got kidnapped in her own
house and she is scared. We have to do
better and protect our women. I tired and I
want my wife and kids. I’m leaving. ”

“ I’m very proud of you my son. For putting

your family first. You have grown up mbuso
and I am proud of the man you today. You
need your family too because you also
have through a lot.” I look at my dad and he
pulls me until a hug. “ thank you for being
the best father to us. I hope I will be the
same to my children. ”

“ You will my son. You have always shown

that towards your brothers and your
brothers here. Go. ” he says. I look at
Preston and shake my head. I don’t feel
sorry for him and I don’t care it they kill him.
“ Can I use your car cause I think bonga
took my car. ” sbu comes outside with me
followed by sicelo. “ bro are you okay? ”
sbu asks me.

“ I’m not okay. Bonga and I had this big

fight with our mother. I’m still angry at her
for bringing thembi into our lives. She hates
sims doesn’t want her to be in a relationship
with bongs. My brother threatened to cut
her out of his life and I’m close to that too
cause she’s failing to realise that sims and
luh are sistes. Luh loves sims very much
and what is hurting sims is going to hurt luh
and that will hurt me because my wife will
be hurting. My mother is going to cause
tension and problems between them and
it’s going to affect them and us brothers. I
don’t want my brother to think that my wife
is the most favourable daughter in law than
sims and zipho's girlfriend. She is making
things hard for us and you would think after
what happened to luh she would change
her ways and be more accepting of sims
but she’s not. I won’t let my mother cause
problems between my brother and I and our
wives. I love luh and my kids more than
anything and if she continues this thing of
hers then she’s going to lose me too cause
I’m this close to cutting her out of my life. ” I
shake my head.

“ fuck man that’s hectic. Did you talk to your

dad? ” sicelo asks. “ I sent him a message
on our way here and told him what
happened. I’m worried about my brother
guys. I really am. ”

“ Go to your family and we’ll take care of

bonga. He’s needs all of us. ” sbu says.
“ this is fuck hard man. First it was sicelo
then you and now it’s bonga. What the hell
is going on guys? ” sbu asks.
“ I wish I knew man. I wish I did. I will see
you tomorrow guys. ” we bro hug and I get
in the car and drive off to see my
family and my mother is still there and I
don’t want to see her or deal with her.

SICELO.

Mbuso leaves and what I feared has

happened. His mom is going to cause
problems for my sister and I really can’t
have that. We have to find a way for her to
accept sims so that my sister can be happy.
I will and do anything to make sure that luh
lives the life she deserves and no one and I
mean no one will come between her and
her happiness. I will do something. We get
inside and our dads and uncle victor are
talking. I have never met a woman like
thembi in my life ever. If this girl was a man
then she would have done so many
damages in the world.

“ so what are we going to do to Preston

before we deal with this mastermind? ” I
ask the dads

“ let’s just kill him and burn his body. No

one will miss him. ” sbu says and I laugh. “
Preston why did you pretend to be gay?.
Did you think we would accept you as you
are or it was your way of getting close to luh
cause maybe we would have seen right
through you had you been spending time
with us right? ” he keeps quiet.

“ you know the world is full of sick and

despicable people Preston. Homophobes
who hate gay people and here you are
pretending to be one. That sob story you
told my dad about your parents wanting you
to marry some girl. You lied to my dad. You
lied to both of them and us. There are
people outside this world who wish that
their parents and families would accept
them as they are and they wished they
have people like us in our lives but you just
think it’s a joke. A costume you can put on
and make fun of it. ” I tell him.

“ you don’t deserve to call yourself a man

cause you are not. You are a spinelessl
coward that let thembi play him. Was her
pussy that good Preston?. The both of you
thought that you were going to get away
with killing luh and taking her kids and no
one was going to come after you? ” sbu
asks him and Preston is silent. He can
already see that he is going to die. He
shakes his head. He then looks at thembi
and laughs. “ Oh thembi. Back from the
dead. You’re stalking us planning and being
invisible so we won’t know that you’re alive.
Are you happy now thembi?. Was every
plan worth this moment now?. ”

The bitch laughs. This girl is fucken crazy. “

it was worth it sbusiso. Did you see how
fucked up he looked?. Who knew mbuso
will be this down and broken all because is
some stupid pussy…. ” a gun shot rings out
and it’s dad who has shot thembi on her
shoulder and the bitch screams then
laughs. I believe mbuso now when he said
that thembi is a sadistic bitch. Pain excites
her but how much pain can she handle?. “
you don’t geyt to talk to my daughter like
that. ” she laughs.

“ Victor where is that acid? ” my dad asks.

Victor brings this container that looks like a
basin and it is filled with acid. You can smell
it. “ sbu scelo put her one leg inside there. I
want to hear her screwing like how my
daughter screamed and begged for her life.
” we wear protective gloves then uncuff one
of her legs and we don’t waste time and we
are about to out her leg in but dad stops us.
I take a huge steel stick that has a cup like
holder fill it with acid then I pour some on
her thigh and she fights it and doesn’t
scream but the more the acid eats her flesh
she fails and screams like the twisted bitch
she is. Bonga and Frank come in and I
come and I see bonga that his mind is not
here.

“ guys I know that you want to torture

thembi and all that but the most important
thing to all of us right now is that we are
supposed to be celebrating the birth of the
twins and both my sons are not okay. I
have to be there for them. Let’s get this
over and done with and kill these two. I
want to go spend some time with all my
grandchildren and their fathers need their
father right now. Luh needs all of us. You
caught them and now it’s time they died.
They don’t need to have the last voice. ”
mbuso's dad says. “ I agree this week we
all went through hell because of these two.
What we need right now in this family is to
be together. Thanking God and our
ancestors that my sister delivered healthy
babies even though she was hurt. We are
wasting out time here.” They nod.

“ Any last words Preston? ” he shakes his

head “ please tell luh that I’m sorry. ” he
says. Good he has accepted the fact that
he is going to die. “ and you thembi?. ” she
laughs and we watch her. She laughs like
she has forgotten that she is shot until she
stops then looks at bonga and his dad and
shakes her head. “ look at you all playing
happy families…. . ” she laughs again. “ you
have never forgotten that you gumede's are
high and mighty. That you have this perfect
family that has no secretes or anything but
you’re wrong. You’re very wrong. I know
something that you don’t know. ” she
laughs. We look at her confused. Bonga
looks at his dad confused. His dad steps
forward then stops and looks at thembi.

“ what are you talking about thembi? ” he

asks her. She laughs. “ oh now you’re
talking to me nicely because you want my
me to tell you what I know?. I can tell you
but you need to let me go and not kill me ”
we all look at each other and agree. “ uncuff
me then. ” sbu uncuffs her and she hisses
then stands up. “ you promise you won’t kill
me cause what I have to say is very big. It
might destroy this happy family y’all got
playing around. ” again she’s looking at
mnguni. “ talk thembi. I don’t have all night.
” he says.
“ How do I know that you won’t kill me after
I have told you? ” she asks. Bonga’s dad
fishes for something in his pocket then
throws thembi the car keys. She catches
then with her left hand and smiles. “ ok. I
need you to uncuff Preston then put all your
guns down. ” we do without hesitation and
she instructs us Preston to come and stand
next to her then she laughs. “ talk thembi.
We have done what you have asked now
tell me what is it that I don’t know? ”

“ Well you know that my mom and your wife

grew up together. So one day I was home
and I heard them talking and I
eavesdropped on them. They didn’t see me
obviously so your wife was telling my
mother that she didn’t know that she had a
twin sister. Apparently they were separated
from birth cause she grew up thinking she
was an only child. She found her twin sister
and they began to have a relationship but
they hid it from everyone because they
didn’t know who to trust. You got into a
relationship with one of the twins and you
didn’t know that she had a twin. The other
twin was jealous of the relationship you had
with her sister and she wanted it for herself.
She fell pregnant with your child and when
she gave birth you were not there you were
on the Eastern Cape at a workshop. You
came back and continued your life with her
mbuso and you never suspected a thing
until now. ” what the fuck is woman talking
about? Fuck no!.

“ baba… .. ” my dad shakes his head at

bonga. “ continue thembi. ” she smiles. She
loves attention. She craves it and I wouldn’t
be surprised if she’s making this up. “
owami is not mbuso's birth mother. She
stole the life of her sister and killed them. ”
what?!.

“ Oh fuck no!. Mnguni this bitch is lying.

There is no way what she is saying is the
truth.. Fuck no!. ” sbusiso loses it.. “ she is
a manipulator a deceiver. You cannot
believe her lies!. ” sbu is angry and were
are all shocked.

“ you can ask my mother if you don’t

believe me!. How would I come up with
something like that huh sbu? ”

“ you said them!. What does that mean. ”

the bitch shakes her head.

“ mbuso is a twin. His mother was a twin.

Why else would he be having twins?. It’s
because he is also a twin. ” oh my fucken
God. No ways!. No fucken ways!.

“ What happened to them? ” mnguni asks.

How can he be so calm and collected when
thembi is breaking his family apart. I would
go ape shit in her.
“ she said to my mother they were on their
way back from the hospital and on the road
where they lives there was a huge river.
She told mbuso’s mom that they had to run
away with the kids but his mom refused
cause she wanted you to meet them then
tell you about her. Owami was carrying
mbuso and his mother was carrying his
other brother when she accidentally slipped
and fell into the river. They both drowned
and that’s how she took over and lived her
life. ”
“ Bullshit!. This is fucken bullshit!. Our dad
was going to know if my mom was carrying
twins or not. Baba you would have known
that she was someone else and not the
woman you love and married. ” his dad is
still looking at thembi shocked. Does he
believes her? Or that bitch is lying like we
already know?. Mnguni takes steps
backward then he rushes out. Victor and
dad follow him then it’s the three of us left.
“ Bitch I know you’re lying!. Tell me that
what you have just said are pure utterly lies!
You are fucking lying!. Say it!. Say it bitch! ”
she laughs and looks at bonga. “ you’re
mother killed your brother’s mother. I am
not lying. Your mother is a fraud and a
fucken damn liar… ” I see bonga rushing to
thembi and within a minute thembi's head is
flying across the room. Preston screams
but sbu shoots him and empties all his
bullets on his head and chest and he falls
down dead. Everything just happened so
fast. We stand there and look at each other
like what the fuck has happened!.

I stand and watch all the women in this house.

They are laughing and talking playing with the
kids. Luh keeps squeezing her hand like it’s
cramping and she has this worries look in her
face and I hate it. I really wanted to kill Preston
but I didn’t want to cause I didn’t want to bring
that negative energy around them. Tomorrow
I’m planning to take away all of them to our
holiday house that I brought. Luh doesn’t know
about it cause I bought while she was in a coma.
I want to forget about everything that happened
and just celebrate my kids. She looks up and see
me then she smiles. How does she do that when
she has been through so much in the last few
weeks. Luh humbles me as to how string she is.
She doesn’t let anything n get her down. She
always rises up no matter how many times she
falls.
I walk in they get quiet. My mother looks like
she wants to talk but I give her the look of ( you
better not say a word to me. ). I stand beside her
and she looks at me. Her brows furrow then she
gets up and palms my face. I look at her and I
feel this need to hold her tight to me. I pull her
close wrap my arms around her and bury my
head on her neck and breath out. I hug her tight
and she doesn’t say anything and just holds me.
Tears cloud my eyes and I feel my shoulders
shake. I don’t care that they are here and
watching me. I just want to be weak and fall
apart on my wife’s arms. I shut my eyes tight
and let my tears fall. She brushes my back and
tells me that she’s fine and she’s not going to
leave me.
I believe her but I am still scared. Seeing my
brother so broken by our mother just because
she hates the woman he loves made me look at
her differently but I know dad will talk to her
and she comes back to her senses and realise
that simphiwe is the woman he loves. “ I love
you. You are the best thing that has ever
happened in my life. You are the everything to
me and I want you to always know that no one
comes before you and our kids. I will walk the
ends of the earth to give you everything you
want and need. Thank you for being the
wonderful woman you are. You are a great wife
and an amazing mother. ” I kiss her nape and
she sighs. “ did you let it all out? ” I nod. “ I feel
better baby. Thank you.” She pulls away and
kisses my while face. I smile.
“ Sorry to disturb you guys. I just wanted to be a
big baby. ” they laugh. “ you guys are amazing
together. I have never seen the kind of love and
bond you too share. It’s ai beautiful. ” lesego
says and luh blushes. “ thank you sister in law ”
she laughs and sims sigh. “ you are the only
woman for my brother sims. Don’t forget that or
let anyone take away your happiness…. . ” the
kitchen door opens and I see my dad walking in.
He looks off. I cock my head and look at him.
Victor and Mapholoba walk in too like they are
in a hurry and they have worried expressions on
their faces. “ what’s going on?. Did thembi and
Preston escape? ”
My dad walks on my side and looks at the kids.
He smiles but his smile is sad. The last time I
saw this look was when his dad died. He
brushes their cheeks and the kids smile. “ baba?
” he looks at luh sims lesego luh's aunt then
Celeste and nonto. “ can all of you help luh pack
up and go to her fathers house all of you go
there and take all the kids and their clothes and
yours too. There’s something we have to do in
the house and we forgot to do it before we
brought the kids and it is going to take some
time” Okay that’s a lie and I know something is
very wrong. He sounds distant and cold like it’s
not him who’s talking. Luh looks at me
worriedly and I nod. Sims and lesego take the
twins and leave the kitchen. “ baba can I stay? ”
my dad looks at her and seems to think.
“ no khanyo. I will call you when we are done.
Okay? ”
“ yebo baba. ” she says then looks at me and I
know she’s worried too.
“ thank you for loving son and giving me
beautiful grand kids. ” she smiles and nods then
leaves. My mom stand to follow luh but fad
gives her a very menacing look. “ you sit down.
” she looks at him shocked and I am too cause I
have never heard dad talk to her that way. I take
the phone and tell the security guys to take the
women to luh’s parents house and guard them. I
look at my father in law and Victor and they are
worried. Now I’m not so sure cause I thought
that this was about sima and bonga but now I
have no idea what is going on. He sits down and
looks at my mom until she begins to fidget. We
are all standing in complete silence until the
women leave with the kids.
As soon as the door shuts my dad talks. “ sit
down mbuso. Call your brothers and tell them to
come here when Ngwende is done with them. ”
I nod. I call sicelo and let him know then hang
up. The dads sit down and I do too. “ why do I
feel like I am going to be interrogated or maybe
you want to hold an intervention about that girl
sims?. ” my mother really hates sims and that is
not going to change. I see it now. “ what is your
problem with sims my dear wife? ” my mother
shakes her head.
“ So this is about her. I can’t believe this
Qwabe. You are here to ask me questions about
that girl who’s already dividing my family?!. ”
“ bonga loves her and you are hurting our son
by not accepting the woman he loves. What did
she do to you?. ”
“ I have already had this conversation with
mbuso and bonga and I am not going to talk
about it furthermore. I don’t like her and you
won’t make me like her or accept her as much
daughter in-law!. ”
“ don’t raise your voice at me owami. ” my
mother looks down. I can feel anger coming off
from him directed to my mother. “ baba ingabe
konke kukahle? ( dad is everything okay?) ” he
shakes his head and looks at my mmother and
she sighs
“ Qwabe I’m sorry this is upsetting you but
that’s how I feel. Why can’t you all let it go and
not make it this big deal? ” she gives my dad
this look that she does whenever she wants
something to go her way. My dad in the other
side has no emotion. “ we are waiting for two
people to get here then we will all sit down and
talk. ” I look at my mom and she’s confused as I
am.
“ dad did thembi say something after I left? ” I
ask him and my chokes on the tea she was
drinking. I get up and Pat her on the back until
she breathes fine. “ who’s coming Qwabe? ” she
asks.
“ the lukhele family they asked to see thembi
before she dies ” he says. Wait what?. I thought
sicelo said that bonga chopped thembi's head off
with a machete?. So are they here to take her
body bag or they had a hand and now dad wants
to kill them too?.
“ There’s no need for them to come here
Qwabe. You could have just sent her body to
her parents but if they did know what their child
was planning and they hid it from us then they
deserve to die. ” she says.
“ do you deserve to die my wife? ” my mom’s
eyes get big like bugs eyes.
“ Baba what the hell?!. ” he laughs like what he
just said is funny which is not.
“ got you didn’t I? ” he says still laughing but I
notice that the other two dads are not laughing.
“ not funny Qwabe. You almost gave me a heart
attack. ” she says smiling.
“ do you remember the vows we took and the
promises we made to each other? ”
“ I still do. You kept each and every promise
and you gave me everything you promised me. ”
she looks at him adoringly.
“ and what did ask you to do for me?. Promise
me? ”
“ To never lie to you keep things secrets from
you and to show you respect always. ” she says
softly.
“ Did you keep those promises to me? ”
“ Of course my husband I did. How can you
even ask me that. ” my aunt walks in and she
looks at us weirdly.
“ what is going on?. You are all having a family
meeting without me? ”
“ no sisi ( no my sister) you are just in time.” He
smiles and my aunt sister next to my mom.
Bonga sicelo sbu and Frank all come in and they
look like hell.
“ You all look like hell. Don’t tell me that bitch
gave you trouble? ” I ask them laughing and
they just nod. Bonga sits next to me then Frank
on the other side. Sbu and sicelo behind me. It’s
like they are forming a protective shield around
me and my warning bells start going off from 0
to a fucken 100. I know something is wrong and
it involves my mother and thembi. She must
have said something that upset my dad and all
of them. Fuck me why did I leave?!.
“ Ok I know something is wrong and you all
know well maybe excluding me mom and aunt
but I know it involves you mom. What did you
say to thembi? did you promise something else
too cause that’s the only thing I can come up
with now judging by the lethal look bonga has
on his face and why dad is not looking like
himself. So mom what did you do? ” I ask her
and all the blood drains from her face. She looks
at my dad absolutely terrified and she begins to
shake. Tears fill her eyes and she shakes her
head and keeps saying no.
“ It’s lie Qwabe! whatever she told you is a lie!.
You cannot believe any word that came out of
that girls mouth! ”
“ She didn’t say anything my wife. Why so you
assume that she said something about you?.
What are you denying? ”
“ well you know that she blames me for not
having a relationship with mbuso so I thought
she lied about something else too so you won’t
have to kill her. ”
“ you promised bonga to someone else didn’t
you?!. That’s why you don’t him to be in a
relationship with sims it’s because you promised
some stupid girl that he will marry her didn’t
you?!. ”
“ I did no such thing mbuso and you will not
raise your voice at me like that. I am your
mother!. ” bonga scoffs and shakes his head and
my mom looks at him frowning.
“ what the hell is really going on here Qwabe?”
“ I will tell you in just a few minutes. Are you
okay? You look neeviuse my wife. Bonga give
your mother a glass of water.” Bonga does that
and mom drinks it with her hands shaking. What
is she scares about.
“ you’re shaking mom. Are you okay? ” bonga
asks her not sounding concerned at all.
“ This is bullshit!. What the hell is going on?!. ”
“ mbuso calm down and listen. We will all find
out what is going on. ” dad says and I sigh.

The door opens and then I see sub’s men

coming in with the lukhele’s who look bruised
and beaten. They look terrified. “ can you all
kindly take my daughter in laws wonderful
living room furniture and put it in the garage
then take the things I asked you to bring and lay
them down there. ” he says and they nod. One of
sub’s guys has his gun pointed to the lukhele’s.
Thembi’s mom looks at my mom and they seem
to be having a silent conversation. I don’t like
that.
“ turn around and face the living room. ”
intelligent thembi’s parents.
“ You saw it too? ” sbu asks I nod. We watch
the guys removing the furniture then they lay a
bid bag plastic on the floor. Then put four chairs
in the middle. “ dad with all due respect. You
are not killing anyone I mean them in my house.
” I mean it.
“ no one is dying. We are just going to talk. Sit
them there. Lwethu owami join them. ”
“ what? ” they both say. He takes out his gun
and points it at them. I try to stand but sicelo
and sbu force me to sit down.
“ you better future ken get your hands off me
brothers. Dad what are you doing pointing a gun
at mom?!. ” I ask him horrified.
“ oh son you going to want to sit down to hear
this shockingly story. ”
“ Qwabe? You are pointing a gun at me?! ” she
asks tearing up. Dad cocks the gun and points it
at her again. “ get the fuck up and go to the
living room and sit on those damn chairs…
NOW!. ” he screams fuck I get scared too. We
all go to the living room and stand as they sit.
“ who wants to start singing? ” my dad asks.
They four of them look at each other and keep
quiet.
“ Ok I’ll start. Lwethu do you remember the
first time I told you about this beautifully girl I
met? ” he smiles as he remembers how he met
my mother.
“ I remember brother but why are you asking
me? ” she asks oblivious like me.
“ Fikile you and owami have been friends for
how many years now? ” Mrs lukhele starts to
sniff.
“ Since we were kids ” she says.
“ and you know everything about her see secrets
and all cause she’s your best friend and you two
practically grew up together right? ” she nods.
“ Qwabe I want to go home. You will not sit me
here like I’m a criminal and have done
something wrong!. Take me home now! ” she
says standing up but bonga cocks his gun and
points it at mom. She must have done something
really bad for bonga to do that. We respect and
love our mother but this looks big.
“ Bonga don’t point a gun at out mother. I know
she has hurt you but brother she’s our mother
and she didn’t raise us to be like that. ” I tell
him.
“ Mbuso she’s. … ”
“ Sit the fuck down and bonga shut the fuck up.
” dad says. My mom starts crying and I hate it. I
don’t like it at all.
“ mbuso I met your mother when she was 19.
This beautiful girl who drive me crazy. Her
smile could melt the coldest heart. It still does. I
always look at her and I ask myself how the hell
did I get so lucky to have this beautiful woman
who has loved me from when she was just a
girl. I had just finished my training as a doctor
when I met her. I was her first in everything.
You remember my love? ” my mom cries and
doesn’t say anything.
“ We planned our lives and picked the names of
the kids we were going to have. Do you
remember the names we picked baby? ” she
nods. “ what were they? ”
“ mbusowezwe sbongakonke and ziphozethu.
Why are you asking me all this?! ”
“ lwethu you and owami are close and have this
very wonderful relationship going on. I know
you know things I don’t know that she has done.
Do you want to tell me something Sisi? ”
“ Yes we are close and I know what you know
nothing else. Whatever she did or they did I
have no part in that. Don’t involve me. ” my
aunt says.
“ Fikile do you want to say something to me? ”
“ no Qwabe. I don’t know what you want me to
tell you? ” my dad shoots her husband on the
knee and lukhele screams. She screams too
“ are you sure about that? ” he asks again and
she nods and dad shoots lukhele's other knee
and he falls down.
“ Ok! Ok! What do you want to know?!. ” she
also crying.
“ thembi said something and I want to know if it
is true?! ” fikile and my mom look at each other
shocked. The blood drains from their faces and
fikile shakes her head at my mom.
“ fikile don’t please!. Don’t! . ”
“ Don’t what ma?. What did thembi say to dad?
”
“ is it true what thembi said regarding mbuso's
mother fikile?!..... Talk damnit?!. ”
“ Yes it is true! She heard us and we realized
when it was too late that she was listening and
heard the whole thing. ”
“ shut the fuck up fikile! Shut your fucken
mouth you stupid bitch! ” I look at my mom
shocked cause I have never heard her cursing or
screaming like a mad woman. dad shoots fikile
on her knees also and she falls down.
“ take them back to their house then burn them
inside. ” he tells sbu’s men and they nod and
take the lukhele’s and leave.
“ mom what is going on? ” my heart is beating
so fast. I can’t believe dad just shit two people.
“ tell him. Tell him what you fucken did to him
and all of us!... Tell him now! ” my mom cries.
“ I’m sorry Qwabe I really am. I did it because I
love you!. ” she says.
“ Mom sis you cheat on dad?! ” she didn’t did
she?
“ Oh no brother she didn’t… .. ”
“ Bonga shut the fuck up! ” the dads say.
“ mapholoba what going on? Dad? Uncle victor
what did my mom do? ”
“ she is lying Qwabe I swear she is. She heard
everything wrong!. ”
“ Ok tell me this then. What did I tell you about
the names of our kids should be if it happens
you get pregnant with twins. What did my dad
say the names of our twins would be? ”
“ I… .. I.. … I don’t Rembert Qwabe that was
along time ago. Look at how grown our kids
are!. ” my dad laughs and shakes his head.
“ you don’t remember cause you don’t know but
I told you. I still remember that day. Tell mbuso
what you did to us!. ” she shakes her head and
continues to cry. My dad shoots just next to her
ear missing it on an inch and the bullet breaks
luh’s vase and it shatters into pieces. I almost
wet my pants thinking my dad just shit my
mom.
“ Tell him or the next bullet is going to be
between your eyes. If you want to live tell
mbuso the truth. ” the atmosphere in the house
has changed. Everyone is tense and this dread
that I felt when I was watching luh comes back.
“ ma tell dad what you did so he can forgive and
not kill you. Apologize to him and i know dad
will forgive you cause he loves you. Tell us
mama what you did please. I hate seeing you
like this. ” I hear mapholoba cursing and he
shakes his head and victor sits down like he’s
exhausted.
“ tell him ma.. Tell my brother how you
screwed his life up. Tell him! ” bonga demands..
“ Ok! Ok I will… just please don’t kill me
Qwabe. I never lied about my feelings for you
the love we share and the life we are living. I
love you my husband very much. ”
“ hey khuluma Sisi!. ( you better talk lady!) ”
“ mbuso… I am so sorry I didn’t mean it. It was
a mistake and when I saw what happened I
freaked out and… . ”
“ oh for fucks says. Tell my brother how you
murdered his mother your twin sister and his
twin brother! Tell him!. ” bonga says and my
world stops. Everything goes silent and I hear
nothing and see nothing. Bonga's words keep
repeating in my head over and over again. My
what? Who what? That’s crazy. I look at them
then laugh. I laugh until tears come out and look
at my mother.
“ mah baba bonga please stop joking like this
cause it is not funny ” I say as I wipe my tears.
It’s nit funny but it sounded funny when bonga
said it. I look at my mom then dad and I shake
my head.
“ ma what are they talking about? ” I ask her
still seated.
“ I’m sorry but… I can’t say it. I love you like
you are my own son. In raised you from the day
you were born. ” I cover my face as I watch my
whole life turn upside down.
“ where is she? Where is he? Where are they?!
” she shakes her head crying.
“ they are… they are dead… I’m so so… .. ” she
doesn’t get to finish her sentence cause the next
thing is I have my hands wrapped around her
throat and chocking her.

know well maybe excluding me mom and aunt
but I know it involves you mom. What did you
say to thembi? did you promise something else
too cause that’s the only thing I can come up
with now judging by the lethal look bonga has
on his face and why dad is not looking like
himself. So mom what did you do? ” I ask her
and all the blood drains from her face. She looks
at my dad absolutely terrified and she begins to
shake. Tears fill her eyes and she shakes her
head and keeps saying no.
“ It’s lie Qwabe! whatever she told you is a lie!.
You cannot believe any word that came out of
that girls mouth! ”
“ She didn’t say anything my wife. Why so you
assume that she said something about you?.
What are you denying? ”
“ well you know that she blames me for not
having a relationship with mbuso so I thought
she lied about something else too so you won’t
have to kill her. ”
“ you promised bonga to someone else didn’t
you?!. That’s why you don’t him to be in a
relationship with sims it’s because you promised
some stupid girl that he will marry her didn’t
you?!. ”
“ I did no such thing mbuso and you will not
raise your voice at me like that. I am your
mother!. ” bonga scoffs and shakes his head and
my mom looks at him frowning.
“ what the hell is really going on here Qwabe?”
“ I will tell you in just a few minutes. Are you
okay? You look neeviuse my wife. Bonga give
your mother a glass of water.” Bonga does that
and mom drinks it with her hands shaking. What
is she scares about.
“ you’re shaking mom. Are you okay? ” bonga
asks her not sounding concerned at all.
“ This is bullshit!. What the hell is going on?!. ”
“ mbuso calm down and listen. We will all find
out what is going on. ” dad says and I sigh.

The door opens and then I see sub’s men

coming in with the lukhele’s who look bruised
and beaten. They look terrified. “ can you all
kindly take my daughter in laws wonderful
living room furniture and put it in the garage
then take the things I asked you to bring and lay
them down there. ” he says and they nod. One of
sub’s guys has his gun pointed to the lukhele’s.
Thembi’s mom looks at my mom and they seem
to be having a silent conversation. I don’t like
that.
“ turn around and face the living room. ”
intelligent thembi’s parents.
“ You saw it too? ” sbu asks I nod. We watch
the guys removing the furniture then they lay a
bid bag plastic on the floor. Then put four chairs
in the middle. “ dad with all due respect. You
are not killing anyone I mean them in my house.
” I mean it.
“ no one is dying. We are just going to talk. Sit
them there. Lwethu owami join them. ”
“ what? ” they both say. He takes out his gun
and points it at them. I try to stand but sicelo
and sbu force me to sit down.
“ you better future ken get your hands off me
brothers. Dad what are you doing pointing a gun
at mom?!. ” I ask him horrified.
“ oh son you going to want to sit down to hear
this shockingly story. ”
“ Qwabe? You are pointing a gun at me?! ” she
asks tearing up. Dad cocks the gun and points it
at her again. “ get the fuck up and go to the
living room and sit on those damn chairs…
NOW!. ” he screams fuck I get scared too. We
all go to the living room and stand as they sit.
“ who wants to start singing? ” my dad asks.
They four of them look at each other and keep
quiet.
“ Ok I’ll start. Lwethu do you remember the
first time I told you about this beautifully girl I
met? ” he smiles as he remembers how he met
my mother.
“ I remember brother but why are you asking
me? ” she asks oblivious like me.
“ Fikile you and owami have been friends for
how many years now? ” Mrs lukhele starts to
sniff.
“ Since we were kids ” she says.
“ and you know everything about her see secrets
and all cause she’s your best friend and you two
practically grew up together right? ” she nods.
“ Qwabe I want to go home. You will not sit me
here like I’m a criminal and have done
something wrong!. Take me home now! ” she
says standing up but bonga cocks his gun and
points it at mom. She must have done something
really bad for bonga to do that. We respect and
love our mother but this looks big.
“ Bonga don’t point a gun at out mother. I know
she has hurt you but brother she’s our mother
and she didn’t raise us to be like that. ” I tell
him.
“ Mbuso she’s. … ”
“ Sit the fuck down and bonga shut the fuck up.
” dad says. My mom starts crying and I hate it. I
don’t like it at all.
“ mbuso I met your mother when she was 19.
This beautiful girl who drive me crazy. Her
smile could melt the coldest heart. It still does. I
always look at her and I ask myself how the hell
did I get so lucky to have this beautiful woman
who has loved me from when she was just a
girl. I had just finished my training as a doctor
when I met her. I was her first in everything.
You remember my love? ” my mom cries and
doesn’t say anything.
“ We planned our lives and picked the names of
the kids we were going to have. Do you
remember the names we picked baby? ” she
nods. “ what were they? ”
“ mbusowezwe sbongakonke and ziphozethu.
Why are you asking me all this?! ”
“ lwethu you and owami are close and have this
very wonderful relationship going on. I know
you know things I don’t know that she has done.
Do you want to tell me something Sisi? ”
“ Yes we are close and I know what you know
nothing else. Whatever she did or they did I
have no part in that. Don’t involve me. ” my
aunt says.
“ Fikile do you want to say something to me? ”
“ no Qwabe. I don’t know what you want me to
tell you? ” my dad shoots her husband on the
knee and lukhele screams. She screams too
“ are you sure about that? ” he asks again and
she nods and dad shoots lukhele's other knee
and he falls down.
“ Ok! Ok! What do you want to know?!. ” she
also crying.
“ thembi said something and I want to know if it
is true?! ” fikile and my mom look at each other
shocked. The blood drains from their faces and
fikile shakes her head at my mom.
“ fikile don’t please!. Don’t! . ”
“ Don’t what ma?. What did thembi say to dad?
”
“ is it true what thembi said regarding mbuso's
mother fikile?!..... Talk damnit?!. ”
“ Yes it is true! She heard us and we realized
when it was too late that she was listening and
heard the whole thing. ”
“ shut the fuck up fikile! Shut your fucken
mouth you stupid bitch! ” I look at my mom
shocked cause I have never heard her cursing or
screaming like a mad woman. dad shoots fikile
on her knees also and she falls down.
“ take them back to their house then burn them
inside. ” he tells sbu’s men and they nod and
take the lukhele’s and leave.
“ mom what is going on? ” my heart is beating
so fast. I can’t believe dad just shit two people.
“ tell him. Tell him what you fucken did to him
and all of us!... Tell him now! ” my mom cries.
“ I’m sorry Qwabe I really am. I did it because I
love you!. ” she says.
“ Mom sis you cheat on dad?! ” she didn’t did
she?
“ Oh no brother she didn’t… .. ”
“ Bonga shut the fuck up! ” the dads say.
“ mapholoba what going on? Dad? Uncle victor
what did my mom do? ”
“ she is lying Qwabe I swear she is. She heard
everything wrong!. ”
“ Ok tell me this then. What did I tell you about
the names of our kids should be if it happens
you get pregnant with twins. What did my dad
say the names of our twins would be? ”
“ I… .. I.. … I don’t Rembert Qwabe that was
along time ago. Look at how grown our kids
are!. ” my dad laughs and shakes his head.
“ you don’t remember cause you don’t know but
I told you. I still remember that day. Tell mbuso
what you did to us!. ” she shakes her head and
continues to cry. My dad shoots just next to her
ear missing it on an inch and the bullet breaks
luh’s vase and it shatters into pieces. I almost
wet my pants thinking my dad just shit my
mom.
“ Tell him or the next bullet is going to be
between your eyes. If you want to live tell
mbuso the truth. ” the atmosphere in the house
has changed. Everyone is tense and this dread
that I felt when I was watching luh comes back.
“ ma tell dad what you did so he can forgive and
not kill you. Apologize to him and i know dad
will forgive you cause he loves you. Tell us
mama what you did please. I hate seeing you
like this. ” I hear mapholoba cursing and he
shakes his head and victor sits down like he’s
exhausted.
“ tell him ma.. Tell my brother how you
screwed his life up. Tell him! ” bonga demands..
“ Ok! Ok I will… just please don’t kill me
Qwabe. I never lied about my feelings for you
the love we share and the life we are living. I
love you my husband very much. ”
“ hey khuluma Sisi!. ( you better talk lady!) ”
“ mbuso… I am so sorry I didn’t mean it. It was
a mistake and when I saw what happened I
freaked out and… . ”
“ oh for fucks says. Tell my brother how you
murdered his mother your twin sister and his
twin brother! Tell him!. ” bonga says and my
world stops. Everything goes silent and I hear
nothing and see nothing. Bonga's words keep
repeating in my head over and over again. My
what? Who what? That’s crazy. I look at them
then laugh. I laugh until tears come out and look
at my mother.
“ mah baba bonga please stop joking like this
cause it is not funny ” I say as I wipe my tears.
It’s nit funny but it sounded funny when bonga
said it. I look at my mom then dad and I shake
my head.
“ ma what are they talking about? ” I ask her
still seated.
“ I’m sorry but… I can’t say it. I love you like
you are my own son. In raised you from the day
you were born. ” I cover my face as I watch my
whole life turn upside down.
“ where is she? Where is he? Where are they?!
” she shakes her head crying.
“ they are… they are dead… I’m so so… .. ” she
doesn’t get to finish her sentence cause the next
thing is I have my hands wrapped around her
throat and chocking her.

#NotEdited

I stand and watch all the women in this house.

They are laughing and talking playing with the
kids. Luh keeps squeezing her hand like it’s
cramping and she has this worries look in her
face and I hate it. I really wanted to kill Preston
but I didn’t want to cause I didn’t want to bring
that negative energy around them. Tomorrow
I’m planning to take away all of them to our
holiday house that I brought. Luh doesn’t know
about it cause I bought while she was in a coma.
I want to forget about everything that happened
and just celebrate my kids. She looks up and see
me then she smiles. How does she do that when
she has been through so much in the last few
weeks. Luh humbles me as to how string she is.
She doesn’t let anything n get her down. She
always rises up no matter how many times she
falls.
I walk in they get quiet. My mother looks like
she wants to talk but I give her the look of ( you
better not say a word to me. ). I stand beside her
and she looks at me. Her brows furrow then she
gets up and palms my face. I look at her and I
feel this need to hold her tight to me. I pull her
close wrap my arms around her and bury my
head on her neck and breath out. I hug her tight
and she doesn’t say anything and just holds me.
Tears cloud my eyes and I feel my shoulders
shake. I don’t care that they are here and
watching me. I just want to be weak and fall
apart on my wife’s arms. I shut my eyes tight
and let my tears fall. She brushes my back and
tells me that she’s fine and she’s not going to
leave me.
I believe her but I am still scared. Seeing my
brother so broken by our mother just because
she hates the woman he loves made me look at
her differently but I know dad will talk to her
and she comes back to her senses and realise
that simphiwe is the woman he loves. “ I love
you. You are the best thing that has ever
happened in my life. You are the everything to
me and I want you to always know that no one
comes before you and our kids. I will walk the
ends of the earth to give you everything you
want and need. Thank you for being the
wonderful woman you are. You are a great wife
and an amazing mother. ” I kiss her nape and
she sighs. “ did you let it all out? ” I nod. “ I feel
better baby. Thank you.” She pulls away and
kisses my while face. I smile.
“ Sorry to disturb you guys. I just wanted to be a
big baby. ” they laugh. “ you guys are amazing
together. I have never seen the kind of love and
bond you too share. It’s ai beautiful. ” lesego
says and luh blushes. “ thank you sister in law ”
she laughs and sims sigh. “ you are the only
woman for my brother sims. Don’t forget that or
let anyone take away your happiness…. . ” the
kitchen door opens and I see my dad walking in.
He looks off. I cock my head and look at him.
Victor and Mapholoba walk in too like they are
in a hurry and they have worried expressions on
their faces. “ what’s going on?. Did thembi and
Preston escape? ”
My dad walks on my side and looks at the kids.
He smiles but his smile is sad. The last time I
saw this look was when his dad died. He
brushes their cheeks and the kids smile. “ baba?
” he looks at luh sims lesego luh's aunt then
Celeste and nonto. “ can all of you help luh pack
up and go to her fathers house all of you go
there and take all the kids and their clothes and
yours too. There’s something we have to do in
the house and we forgot to do it before we
brought the kids and it is going to take some
time” Okay that’s a lie and I know something is
very wrong. He sounds distant and cold like it’s
not him who’s talking. Luh looks at me
worriedly and I nod. Sims and lesego take the
twins and leave the kitchen. “ baba can I stay? ”
my dad looks at her and seems to think.
“ no khanyo. I will call you when we are done.
Okay? ”
“ yebo baba. ” she says then looks at me and I
know she’s worried too.
“ thank you for loving son and giving me
beautiful grand kids. ” she smiles and nods then
leaves. My mom stand to follow luh but fad
gives her a very menacing look. “ you sit down.
” she looks at him shocked and I am too cause I
have never heard dad talk to her that way. I take
the phone and tell the security guys to take the
women to luh’s parents house and guard them. I
look at my father in law and Victor and they are
worried. Now I’m not so sure cause I thought
that this was about sima and bonga but now I
have no idea what is going on. He sits down and
looks at my mom until she begins to fidget. We
are all standing in complete silence until the
women leave with the kids.
As soon as the door shuts my dad talks. “ sit
down mbuso. Call your brothers and tell them to
come here when Ngwende is done with them. ”
I nod. I call sicelo and let him know then hang
up. The dads sit down and I do too. “ why do I
feel like I am going to be interrogated or maybe
you want to hold an intervention about that girl
sims?. ” my mother really hates sims and that is
not going to change. I see it now. “ what is your
problem with sims my dear wife? ” my mother
shakes her head.
“ So this is about her. I can’t believe this
Qwabe. You are here to ask me questions about
that girl who’s already dividing my family?!. ”
“ bonga loves her and you are hurting our son
by not accepting the woman he loves. What did
she do to you?. ”
“ I have already had this conversation with
mbuso and bonga and I am not going to talk
about it furthermore. I don’t like her and you
won’t make me like her or accept her as much
daughter in-law!. ”
“ don’t raise your voice at me owami. ” my
mother looks down. I can feel anger coming off
from him directed to my mother. “ baba ingabe
konke kukahle? ( dad is everything okay?) ” he
shakes his head and looks at my mmother and
she sighs
“ Qwabe I’m sorry this is upsetting you but
that’s how I feel. Why can’t you all let it go and
not make it this big deal? ” she gives my dad
this look that she does whenever she wants
something to go her way. My dad in the other
side has no emotion. “ we are waiting for two
people to get here then we will all sit down and
talk. ” I look at my mom and she’s confused as I
am.
“ dad did thembi say something after I left? ” I
ask him and my chokes on the tea she was
drinking. I get up and Pat her on the back until
she breathes fine. “ who’s coming Qwabe? ” she
asks.
“ the lukhele family they asked to see thembi
before she dies ” he says. Wait what?. I thought
sicelo said that bonga chopped thembi's head off
with a machete?. So are they here to take her
body bag or they had a hand and now dad wants
to kill them too?.
“ There’s no need for them to come here
Qwabe. You could have just sent her body to
her parents but if they did know what their child
was planning and they hid it from us then they
deserve to die. ” she says.
“ do you deserve to die my wife? ” my mom’s
eyes get big like bugs eyes.
“ Baba what the hell?!. ” he laughs like what he
just said is funny which is not.
“ got you didn’t I? ” he says still laughing but I
notice that the other two dads are not laughing.
“ not funny Qwabe. You almost gave me a heart
attack. ” she says smiling.
“ do you remember the vows we took and the
promises we made to each other? ”
“ I still do. You kept each and every promise
and you gave me everything you promised me. ”
she looks at him adoringly.
“ and what did ask you to do for me?. Promise
me? ”
“ To never lie to you keep things secrets from
you and to show you respect always. ” she says
softly.
“ Did you keep those promises to me? ”
“ Of course my husband I did. How can you
even ask me that. ” my aunt walks in and she
looks at us weirdly.
“ what is going on?. You are all having a family
meeting without me? ”
“ no sisi ( no my sister) you are just in time.” He
smiles and my aunt sister next to my mom.
Bonga sicelo sbu and Frank all come in and they
look like hell.
“ You all look like hell. Don’t tell me that bitch
gave you trouble? ” I ask them laughing and
they just nod. Bonga sits next to me then Frank
on the other side. Sbu and sicelo behind me. It’s
like they are forming a protective shield around
me and my warning bells start going off from 0
to a fucken 100. I know something is wrong and
it involves my mother and thembi. She must
have said something that upset my dad and all
of them. Fuck me why did I leave?!.
“ Ok I know something is wrong and you all
know well maybe excluding me mom and aunt
but I know it involves you mom. What did you
say to thembi? did you promise something else
too cause that’s the only thing I can come up
with now judging by the lethal look bonga has
on his face and why dad is not looking like
himself. So mom what did you do? ” I ask her
and all the blood drains from her face. She looks
at my dad absolutely terrified and she begins to
shake. Tears fill her eyes and she shakes her
head and keeps saying no.
“ It’s lie Qwabe! whatever she told you is a lie!.
You cannot believe any word that came out of
that girls mouth! ”
“ She didn’t say anything my wife. Why so you
assume that she said something about you?.
What are you denying? ”
“ well you know that she blames me for not
having a relationship with mbuso so I thought
she lied about something else too so you won’t
have to kill her. ”
“ you promised bonga to someone else didn’t
you?!. That’s why you don’t him to be in a
relationship with sims it’s because you promised
some stupid girl that he will marry her didn’t
you?!. ”
“ I did no such thing mbuso and you will not
raise your voice at me like that. I am your
mother!. ” bonga scoffs and shakes his head and
my mom looks at him frowning.
“ what the hell is really going on here Qwabe?”
“ I will tell you in just a few minutes. Are you
okay? You look neeviuse my wife. Bonga give
your mother a glass of water.” Bonga does that
and mom drinks it with her hands shaking. What
is she scares about.
“ you’re shaking mom. Are you okay? ” bonga
asks her not sounding concerned at all.
“ This is bullshit!. What the hell is going on?!. ”
“ mbuso calm down and listen. We will all find
out what is going on. ” dad says and I sigh.

The door opens and then I see sub’s men

coming in with the lukhele’s who look bruised
and beaten. They look terrified. “ can you all
kindly take my daughter in laws wonderful
living room furniture and put it in the garage
then take the things I asked you to bring and lay

“ oh for fucks says. Tell my brother how you
murdered his mother your twin sister and his
twin brother! Tell him!. ” bonga says and my
world stops. Everything goes silent and I hear
nothing and see nothing. Bonga's words keep
repeating in my head over and over again. My
what? Who what? That’s crazy. I look at them
then laugh. I laugh until tears come out and look
at my mother.
“ mah baba bonga please stop joking like this
cause it is not funny ” I say as I wipe my tears.
It’s nit funny but it sounded funny when bonga
said it. I look at my mom then dad and I shake
my head.
“ ma what are they talking about? ” I ask her
still seated.
“ I’m sorry but… I can’t say it. I love you like
you are my own son. In raised you from the day
you were born. ” I cover my face as I watch my
whole life turn upside down.
“ where is she? Where is he? Where are they?!
” she shakes her head crying.
“ they are… they are dead… I’m so so… .. ” she
doesn’t get to finish her sentence cause the next
thing is I have my hands wrapped around her
throat and chocking her.

I see only red. I wrap my hand tight around

her throat cause I want to kill her. She killed
my birth mother and twin brother then she
took over her sisters life?. What kind of
person does that. How did my father not
realize that he is sleeping with someone
else and how the hell did he not know that
my mom had a twin sister?. This is fucken
crazy!. They pull me off of her and she
coughs. I can’t believe this is actually
happening. I have just strangled the woman
I thought is my mother. The woman I
worship the ground she walks on. My
mother… no my aunt?. My aunt pulls
bonga's mom to her and she looks at me
disappointed. I look at bonga and he looks
really hurt.
“ brother… . I’m sorry… I ” I shake my
head.
“ you should have killed her!. I can’t believe
she did that!. This doesn’t make sense at
all. ”
“ how did you not know that this woman
was an imposter baba?. My whole entire life
I was raised by a woman who claimed is my
mother? How is it possible baba? ”
“ I never knew your mother had a twin.
What I know is she was raised by you’re
her maternal grandmother. Her parents
died when she was just a baby. She was an
only child mbuso. That’s all I know. I never
did for once see anything different about
her. She was exactly like the woman I loved
and fell in love with. ” my dad explains.
“ is this why you never wanted us to know
your side of the family?. Is owami your
name or my mother’s name?. ”
“ it’s your mother name. I was given the
name sebenzile. I’m sorry my son. I didn’t
mean for things to turn out this way. ”
“ Liar. Murder!. You are nothing but a
fraud!. That’s why you kept forcing thembi
down my brothers throat because she knew
of your dirty secret. How could you do that
ma? How could you!. ” bonga looks at her
disgusted.
“ No there’s more to this. She has to tell us
how she found my mother. Why didn’t our
great grandmother not know that her
granddaughter gave birth to twins
daughters? Talk sebenzile. ” she wipes her
tears.
“ I grew up in kwaNongoma with my
grandparents. Our fathers aide of the
family. I knew that my parents died from
when I was just baby. My grandmother one
day when she was drinking told me that
when our mother gave birth she gave birth
to twins but she didn’t know cause she had
fainted for a few minutes and that time
giving birth to twins was something that was
not good. One had to be killed so they took
your mother and gave her up to some
family but my dad got upset and threatened
to kill my grandmother when he heard so
she have up where they took your mother.
My dad then convinced my mother that they
should take your mother to her mother in
Phongolo that way no one will be killed and
they did. Apparently they got there and they
never told out maternal grandmother that
our mother gave birth to twins. That’s how
we were separated. ” I don’t know if I
believe this woman or not.
“ how old were you when you found my
mom?. ”
“ It was a year after she met your dad. We
were both 19. I left the day after my
grandmother confessed and went to look
for my twin sister. It wasn’t easy and I
struggled for 3 months then one day I was
lucky I saw her outside some house
sweeping the yard. It took me 3 day to
finally have the courage to go talk to her. I
waited for our grandmother to leave then I
went to introduce myself. When we both
saw each other we knew. We knew that we
were identical twin sisters. We talked and
got to know each other and I begged her
not to tell our grandmother that I existed. . ”
“ That’s because you had already planned
to kill her and take over her life!.... ”
“ Bonga calm down!. Continue ” mapholoba
reprimands him.
“ she didn’t understand at first but I told her
that they might kill the both of us and she
agreed. Owami lived a very well life. Our
uncles loved her very much cause she was
an only child. She was well taken of and
she lived the life I wanted and I got jealous
of her. I hated that she grew up in a loving
home while they left me behind with our
wicked grandmother. I started to hate her
and resent her. She then told me about this
boy who loves her and wants to marry her
and she wanted to tell qwabe about me but
I made her promise me that we would wait
a little bit longer. I saw how Qwabe loved
her. Hiding myself from everyone was
beginning to get too much and she was
also getting tired. One day then she told me
that she was pregnant and was very excited
then a few months down the line qwabe
went to the Eastern Cape and stayed
longer gha7 he was suppose to. The time to
give birth came and our uncles rushed her
to the hospital. I knew that they were going
to come after she has given birth and I
didn’t want them there. So I went to our
grandmother’s house and started the fire…
.. ” oh my God! My aunt gets up pushing
sebenzile away from her and we look at her
shocked.
“ … . The left the hospital and I was able to
see her. The fire kept all of them busy until
the next day. We didn’t have cell phones
then so she wanted to call qwabe when she
got home. She was very excited and I hated
her even more that she is living her dream
life and has everyone that loves her. Our
uncles organised a transport to take her
home but I slashed the tires of the car I
then convinced her that we should go home
and I will carry one of the boys. I took you
to my arms mbuso and I immediately fell in
love with you like I was the one that gave
birth to you. We left in foo t and the short
cut back home was for us to pass by the
river and we took it. The road was slippery
cause it had rained a few days ago. We
kept walking ad she was so damn excited
about everything and she just made me so
mad. I don’t know what happened cause
the next thing I heard was owami
screaming and falling into the river. I put
you down and looked for a log that she can
hold on to but the river was too full and the
current was very strong. I saw her body
lying face down and I never saw your
brothers. I then went home and took over
her life and I have been living as owami
ever since. I only took her name you mbuso
and qwabe but I love the both of you very
much. The love I have for you is pure and
genuine. ”
“ lies!. You are fucken lying!. You were mad
as she was sharing her excitement with
you. Her damn sister that she trusted but in
the end you were a wild in a sheep’s
clothing. A fucken damn snake. You
pushed her into the river and watched her
and my brother drown. Thembi said that
you fucken murderous witch!. ” bonga
screams at her and takes out his gun and
points it at her.
“ Bonga please!. I let jealously cloud my
judgement and I regret it! ”
“ you don’t regret it. If you did you would
have told me many years ago. You look at
me everyday and claim to love me but you
are lying to my face everyday. How do you
live with yourself sebenzile? ” she cries.
“ that’s why you never breastfed mbuso in
front of us and claimed to be shy. That’s
why when sometimes you talk about how
you grew up you would just mention that
your grandmother hated you cause she
blamed you for her daughters death. All
lies. ” my aunt says.
“ baba you and my mom’s uncles never
saw anything different about my mom? No
one suspected a thing? ”
“ Mbuso. Your mother was a very gentle
soft kind woman. She was shy and didn’t
talk much so no we didn’t see anything
different about her. We were all excited
about you and we soon started the lobola
negotiations and then we got married and
moved. As time went your mother claimed
that everyone was jealous of her and she
didn’t feel comfortable going back to visit
and we never did. I didn’t want anything to
upset her and you that’s how much I loved
her. I wasn’t going to out my family in that
kind if situation.” Dad looks tired and
beaten. Like his whole life has crushed and
it has. Both our lives have crashed. I’m
most worried about my little brother cause
this is his mother we are talking about.
“ we have done cleansing ceremonies at
home and a traditional healer was always
present. You consult the ancestors Nana
before you did anything so how come the
truth was never revealed? ”
“ I made sure that I paid them money to not
reveal anything that involved me and what I
did. ” she says like it’s not a big deal.
“ I don’t believe anything that comes out of
your mouth. I loved you ma but you didn’t.
You let me live this life while hiding the
biggest part of my life from me. How do I
forgive you ma… sebenzile?.” She cries
and she’s pissing the hell out of me.
The whole house is quiet and tense. I do
not know how to feel and think because it
feels like my life has been a lie. I wasn’t
even a day old when I was taken from my
mother. She didn’t get to kiss me and tell
me that she loves me. How do I look past
everything she has done for me to show me
that she loves me but yet she killed my
mother?. I sit down and cover my head and
breakdown.
“ If thembi never came back from their lives.
Our lives then that means you were
prepared to take this secret to the grave
with you?. How could you ruin the lives of
the man you love ma? Look at them!. Look
at how crushed they are. How are they
going to trust us the women they love?.
What about the relationship between the
brothers ma?. Did you ever think about
what will happen when the truth comes
out?. How is baba going to look at his son
and think maybe he failed him cause he
didn’t see what you really are?. Do you
know what this might do my husband ma?!.
We just had kids and I need him here. He
almost lost me and now I might lose him
cause of what you did. ” my wife say. When
did luh get here cause I thought she left.
She is with sims.
“ What if she’s lying and they didn’t die?.
What if she hid them some where mbuso.
Because if they did die the people from the
village would have found the bodies of both
of them?. Why did your martenal side of
grandparents just let things go and not try
to contact you?. What if your mother is still
alive and she lives with them and she thinks
is that her twin sister and son got in the
river and died too or she ran away with
you?. ” luh says and I didn’t think of it that
way.
“ ukhanyo is right. We have to go back to
where all of this started because I also don’t
believe a word she’s saying. ” my aunt
says.
“ Are we ever going to get peace in this
family or there are always going to be
secretes that are going to come out when
we least expect it? ” bonga asks.
“ We can’t keep killing people cause one
day all of that is going to come back and
bite us. We can’t be the family that is known
to be killing people when they hurt us but
this ma?!. This is very unforgivable and you
deserve everything that is coming your way.
How is zipho going to process this?. You
took something from all of us ma and I’m
never ever going to forgive you. I want
nothing to do with you. To me you are.
Dead as of today. ” bonga says crying.
“ let’s go sebenzile. ” my dad says.
“ no!. You’re going to kill me qwabe
Sponsored
I’m not going anywhere with you!. ”
“ kill her baba and the world will be a better
place without her. ” bonga says. Luh sits
next to me and takes my hand.
“ What do you want us to do? ” she asks
looking at me with tears in our eyes.
“ I want her to leave my house. I want her to
leave my family alone. I want her away from
my brothers but I don’t want her to die luh.”
She holds me as I cry in her arms and
comforts me.
“ let’s go away from here for a while then
you can calm down and plan things
properly. When we come back you can start
the search about finding the truth about
your mother and brother. We all need a
break. If you all start the search now you
might miss something cause you’re all
angry and we don’t want to miss anything.
Ubaba won’t be alone. He has u aunty my
dad and uncle Victor and they will all make
sure that he is okay and keep an eye on
ma. Right now I need you mbuso. Me and
your kids need you. You need us too and I
won’t let you go and look for the truth about
my mother in law. Let’s go.” She is right. My
mind is not functioning well right now and I
just need time to think and investigate
before I physically go there.
I get up and go stand next to dad who has
his head down in shame. I grab his
shoulder and he looks up. “ I don’t blame
you for all this and I want you to know that it
is not your fault dad. She fooled all of us
and that’s all on her. Not on you me and my
brothers. We will find the truth and if… . If
they are dead and buried somewhere we
will. Exhume their skeletons and give them
a proper burial but dad if they were dead I
think they would have shown us sighs
through dreams or something so as much
as it sounds crazy I think that they may still
be alive but I don’t want you to hold on to
that in case we find out they really are
dead. Be strong dad. Bonga and I don’t
blame you and we love you okay? ” my dad
looks at me then bonga quickly runs to us
and we hold dad before he falls down as he
cries.

I don’t think I have ever seen my dad

crying. Dad has always been my
Superman. My hero but tonight? Now?. I’m
seeing a man who’s life has just changed. A
man who’s wife has broken him beyond
anything I can imagine. The three of us hold
each other and we cry. “ come with us dad.
Let’s leave and we will all come back
together again and search for the truth. ”
bonga says. Dad shakes his head. I know
him he’s not going to leave. When he
leaves here. He is going to search for my
mother.
“ you two kids leave. Take your families and
leave. I will talk to you boys don’t worry
about me.. I just needed a moment of
weakness and I got in with you here with
me cause I swear if I was alone with her.
Your mother would be dead but I love her
mbuso. I love your mom boys and I don’t
know what I’m going to do with her. ” I
shake my head. This shit is fucken hard.
“ We live her too dad and we don’t want you
to kill her. Just keep her locked away
somewhere until we decide what were
going to do. ” intelligent him. He nods. We
get up and look at our mother… mother?.
No she’s not but she has always been a
mother to me and that is isn’t suddenly
going to stop.
“ Mapholoba. Uncle Victor aunty please
watch over our dad. Aunty I think it’s better
if you took dad back home not his house
but his birth home. We haven’t been there
in a while and I think him being there will
calm him down. Sbu I need you to take ma
to that place. Make sure she doesn’t have
access to the outside and doesn’t talk to
anyone. I need her on lockdown 24/7. ” they
all nod.
“ sicelo I think you should also come with us
with lesego and the kids. Sbu will join us
later and well call zipho when we land.
Frank will stay and watch over everything.”
They all nod.
I take my phone out and call my company
pilot to get the jet ready. I tell luh to go pack
up everything she might and hey leave with
sims to the bedrooms. Sbu calls his guys to
the house to take our mother.
“ I’ll see you when I land. Where are we
going again?. ”
“ you remember our sheik friend right? he
has a house in Italy a villa and he said we
can stay as long as we want. ” sbu nods.
“ qwabe I’m sorry my…my husband I wish I
could go back and change things but I know
it’s too late now. Mbuso thank you my son
for not… . ”
“ For not killing you ma? Don’t thank him
yet cause you might be killed by me just like
you killed his mother and our brother. ” she.
Looks down. Sub’s men take her and she
walks out crying for her husband.
Dad and the dads also leave and it’s just
us. No one says anything until luh and sims
come back.
“ We have to go and get the kids so we can
leave. Are we driving to Joburg or Durban?
” luh asks
“ Joburg. ”
“ Can we get drunk as soon as we land? ”
sicelo asks?.
“ my mother is a murderer. ” bonga says.
“ She’s our mother brother and I guess we
took from her cause we are also murderers.
” that is the truth. Our dark and ugly side we
got it from her.

CHAPTER 58

TWO YEARS LATER.

LUNGI.
The last two years of my life have been really
hard. Being a new mom on top of the problems
we faced was hard because the first six months
of first year were tough. Mbuso didn’t know
how to cope with the everything. He drunk
himself to sleep the first three weeks and then
the weeks after that he withdrew and kept to
himself. He didn’t want to talk about anything
that involved his mother……bonga's mother.
He helped me a lot with the kids and that made
me really happy that he didn’t withdrew
completely from us his family cause wanted to
be very involved in everything concerning our
children and he has become very protective over
me and our kids.
Their mother is still alive being kept wherever
mbuso told sbu to keep her. My father in law is
still struggling with the truth and bonga too. The
whole Gumede family was shocked to hear this
and they wanted her to be punished. Bonga told
his dad that he should divorce his mother and
leave her with nothing but it wasn’t as easy as
he said it cause if it was easy they would have
killed her and moved on. I can say we had a
good Holiday not a great one cause we left I
wouldn’t say we were running from our
problems but we left cause we needed a break
from everything. We bonded nd got to know
lesego and her kids. Bonga and sims worked on
their relationship and sbusiso joined us three
weeks after. We spent three months in Italy at a
villa and the place was absolutely beautiful. I
want to go back there again with just mbuso and
me. Not our kids or anyone else but just the two
of us.
We moved to Durban the last year and I must
day I am living my life in my dream home.
Mbuso built me a house I wanted and it’s my
home. My most sacred place. His company
moved too and he’s working again even though
he hates it and prefers to work at home than at
the office. The great news is sims and the kids
moved here too bonga bought them a house and
they all moved in together after bonga paid
lobola and proposed to sims. The whole thing
went really great but the only person that was
missing was their mom. Even though they
pretended to be okay with it but I knew deep
down it really hurt all of them and zipho
especially when he found out what really
happened.
My brother and Lesego are really happy and she
too now lives here in Durban with my brother
with their kids in the new house he bought them.
Lesego is an amazing strong woman. I realised
this when three months ago we had to go back
with her Hometown Bethlehem for her lobola
negotiations. I really thought people were going
to die that day but the brothers having the strong
bond they all have made sure that their brother
is coming back with his bride. Anyway she will
tell you what really happened. My dad on the
other side told me about the woman he’s in a
relationship with and is planning to come with
her to introduce her to us and honestly I’m
happy that he has someone he can love again.
My husband and his brothers are still
investigating about the whole situation about
where sebenzile grew up and what happened to
their maternal side of the family. Mbuso sbu and
his dad left and went to oPhongolo apparently
they found some lead there. I am very anxious
and I hope whatever they are going to find is
good news. I have two housekeepers and
nannies that live in the cottage and sis nonto
relocated with us and she’s the only one who
lives in the house with us cause she’s not just a
housekeeper who has worked for my family for
years but she’s a member of our family.
We are still in the process of starting our
company and Lesego is on board too. I had told
them when we were in Italy what I wanted and
since Lesego was now part of our family she
had to be included too and she was very excited
and my husband was proud of me and speaking
of him I last talked to mbuso in the morning and
I hope everything is going well. My handsome
twins are taking a nap in their room and I’m
sitting here drinking a glass of wine cause
mbuso doesn’t want me to drink alcohol and I
don’t know why so when he’s not home I drink
a glass once in a while.. My cell phone rings and
it’s sims.
“ sister in-law? ” she laughs
“ Are you home? ”
“ Where else would I be at? ”
“ ok I’m coming. I’ll drive by lesego’s and pick
her up.” She hangs up. Okay?.
“ mah? ” oh I forgot sims kids are going to be
sleeping here cause it’s Friday and wanted to
have a sleepover. I guess all the kids will be
here. It’s sims oldest Melusi.
“ hey boy how was school? ” I turn and face
him. “ where’s your brother? ” he throws
himself on the couch.
“ school was okay and katlego is in the kitchen
eating ”
“ okay. ” I look at him and wait for him to talk
cause I know he wants to talk about something.
Melusi and I are close and sometimes it feels
like he’s my first born.
“ uhm I wanted to ask you if you could take me
to the mall.” he shyly looks down.
“ are we going to buy something or do
something? ” I look at him suspiciously.
“ there’s a friend at school and tomorrow it’s
her birthday and I wanted to ask you if you can
take us to the mall and have ice cream. ” I smile
and look at him.
“ Is she just a friend or a very special friend? ”
“ The second one. Will you take us? ” I giggle.
“ Why didn’t you ask your mom or dad? ”
“ Because dad told me to stay away from girls
and you know how extra mom can get…” he
rolls his eyes and I laugh. “ and I asked uncle
Percy but refused to take me. He told me to ask
my parents first. ” and he decided to ask me not
his parents. This child.
“ but you still have to ask them cause maybe
they would like to take you guys to the mall.
What’s her name?. ”
“ Ma?.... ”
“ What?. I would like to know her name and
everything about her that makes her your special
friend. ” he laughs he’s so cute.
“ Well she was the first person to talk to me at
my new school and I eat lunch with her most of
the time and with my friends. She’s funny and
smart too. ”
“ Boy you still haven’t told me her name. ”
“ she’s Becky. ” with the good hair? I press my
lips tight so he won’t see that one want to smile.
“ that’s a pretty name. Do you have her
numbers? ”
“ I do. Are you going to call her?. ”
“ no. You are going to mask your mom then
maybe she’ll ask your dad and maybe one of the
would like to accompany you and if they are
busy then I’m sure I can spare two hours and
take you guys but we have to get permission
first from her parents. ”
“ ok. ” he sighs.
“ Do you want me to talk to them? ”
“ no ma. I’ll call dad first then ask mom. ”
“ ok boy. Go change your clothes then have
something to eat. “ he gets up and kisses my
cheek and leaves. I smile and look at him he
really has grown. I can’t wait for my boys to be
this grown.
I wear my sleepers and go to the kitchen.
Katlego is no longer there I guess he’s changing
in the room they sleep in. I take my phone and
call mbuso. The phone rings and he picks up.
“ Love. Are you okay? ”
“ I’m okay. Are you okay though? ” he sighs
“ I’ll tell you about it later. How are the kids? ”
“ they are sleeping. Sibonelo was cranky last
night. He knows you’re not home and I think he
misses you. ”
“ I’m glad someone misses me. I miss my the
boys too. ” I giggle.
“ I miss you too boo you know that. . When are
you coming home mbuso? ”
“ uzongi bhebhisa yin? ( are you going to let me
fuck you?) ” I laugh
“ behave mbuso and yes I will let you fuck me
seven ways to Sunday. ”
“ when I come back make sure it’s just the two
of us in the house. ”
“ I will do that. Are you getting somewhere with
the search? ” he sighs exhausted.
“ Not like how I expected baby. I will explains
when I get home. ”
“ ok baby be safe. I love you. ”
“ uthandwa yim wena. ( I love you ) ” then he
hangs up.
“ Sisi do you need anything? ” sis nonto comes
in and carrying sbonelo. I swear this child sleeps
only an hour then he wakes up.
“ He’s already awake? ” I take him from here
and give him kisses around his face.
“ Where is his nanny? ”
“ she was putting the toys back in their
playroom. I was putting his clothes in his closet
when I saw him waking up and I decided to take
him before he wakes his brother up ” we laugh.
My kids love sleeping on the same bed. We
separated them and made each one sleep in there
own bed that is child proof but my boys didn’t
want to have that. They cried so much that we
decided to make them sleep on the same bed
and that’s how they like and prefer it. They face
each other then sleep.
I once found mbuso in their room late at night
and he was watching them. I watched him
watching them and I saw tears falling down. I
knew that he was thinking about his brother. I
look at my son and smile. No one will take my
kids from me and I’ll kill anyone who dares to
try. The nanny comes to take sbonelo but I
shake my head. She gives me his bottle and
leaves.
“ Hello… . Oh he’s awake. Why am I not
surprised? ” sims says taking him from my arms
“ oh you’re so handsome aren’t you? ”
“ Hey luh? ” lesego says giving me a hug and
she sits down.
“ Damn girl you look tired. What were you
doing? ” I ask her.
“ they were having sex. Sicelo came back from
work just to get some booty. ” Sims say.
“ mind your language Sims. You’ll make my
son go deaf ” we laugh.
“ where are the others? ” Sims asks
“ they are somewhere around the house and
where are yours? ” lesego and Sims kids all go
to the same school.
“ Sicelo took them for ice cream but he’s going
to drop them off. ” I laugh.
“ I still can’t believe my brother wanted to take
kamo to an all girls school. ” we laugh.
“ Wanted? Huh he said next year she’s going
there. Your brother is something else luh. ”
“ Something you love ” she blushes and we
laugh.
“ Okay out with it. What’s going on?. ” I ask
Sims.
“ can we go somewhere private? ”
“ oh this is going to be good.. Where’s the
wine? ” lesego says and she hardly drinks. We
both look at her worried.
“ Are you okay? ” I ask her.
“ My family
Sponsored
well. My younger sister sent me an sms and
asked if she could visit me for the holidays.
”
“ What? What did you say? ” she shakes her
“ I said no then I told your brother and he said
yes because he wants them to see how my life
has changed and how happy our kids are. ”
“ And you don’t want that which is
understandable. ”
“ I don’t guys cause you know what they out me
through during the negotiations and now I must
allow one of them to come into my home that I
love so much. What if she’s planning to do
something guys?. ”
“ hey it’s okay. Maybe sicelo has a reason why
she wants them to come. ” I tell her.
“ you said them luh? ” Sims says
“ don’t tell me that you’re expecting her to
come alone cause I doubt it and you have to
prepare for that but don’t worry we will be there
too. ” she smiles.
“ you guys are really the best. Sometimes I wish
I had the kind of relationship I have with you
with my sisters. ”
“ well you can have is as your sisters for as long
as you want. ” she smiles. We go to mbus's
office and sit there.
“ what if they are watching us right now. ” less
go says looking around the room.
“ don’t worry there are no cameras here so we
can talk freely. ” sbonelo cries for me and I take
him.
“ I had promised myself that I’m not going to
share this with you guys but uhmmm don’t
judge me neh? ”
“ This sounds serious and you know you can tell
us anything Sims. We won’t judge you.” I tell
her.
“ well it is serious I think. So before mbuso and
sbu left with father in law uhm… . We kinda did
something. ”
“ did something with whom? ” I ask her
“ Me bonga and sbu. ” huh?
“ and what did you do exactly? ” lesego asks
her. Sims blushes and looks down and I laugh.
“ you? Sims? Blush? What happened between
the three of you? ” we laugh at her.
“ so all the guys were at our house discussing
something I guess I don’t know then they left
one by one until it was just bonga and sbu… . ”
“ Wait let me take sbonelo to his nanny and I’ll
come back with wine. ” I get up and meet the
many in the corridor and I give him sbonelo and
he doesn’t cry. I grab two bottles of wine and
glasses them hurry up to my husband’s office. “
Ok I’m back. Continue. ” I pour is glasses then
sit down.
“ They sat in there for like an hour or so I can’t
remember exactly the time then bonga called me
to his office and I knew… ” she takes a deep
breath then looks at us. “ I knew that we were
going to have a threesome “ I choke on my wine
and lesego spits hers out and we look at her
shocked.
“ You did what? ” we both ask her at the same
time
“ bonga sbu and I had a threesome.” She says
and drinks her wine.
“ Wow… that is shocking and how? ” I ask her
and she blushed. It must have been good then. I
know that Sims once had a threesome with the
guy she was dating and they invited other girl to
join them. And the next day she couldn’t stop
talking about what a wonderful experience she
had and so I guess she wanted to do it again.
“ I didn’t realise that bonga was into men too. ”
lesego says and we laugh at her. She looks at us
confused.
“ He’s not into men lesego. Him and bonga
didn’t touch or do anything to each other. ”
Sims says.
“ well how did the whole thing happened then?
”
“ Have you ever watched porn? ” she shakes her
head no. “ you are so innocent lesego that’s why
scelo loves corrupting you with the sex he gives
you. ” lesego blushes then giggle.
“ somehow it’s like I knew that it was going to
happen cause I shaved in the morning and made
sure that I was clean and fresh. We had talked
about this with bonga many times and he asked
me who I would to invite and I said sbu cause at
that time he was the only one single even now.
So we sat and talked about what makes me
comfortable what doesn’t. How far am I willing
to go you know all that stuff. ”
“ no we don’t know Sims. ” I say.
“ Their bodies never touched or anything and
they made sure that I had a very wonderful and
fulfilling time. ” she says smiling.
“ Damn girl they did fill you up then. ” we
laugh
“ We used condoms and when the other one
took my mouth the other would fuck me and no
we didn’t have any anal sex. What I would like
to say though is that they made me scream and
let my body shake from the orgasms they gave
me that had me weak in the legs.”
“ Wow Sims. So how was sbu? ”
“ lesego? ” I say and we burst out laughing
“ what?. LUH I love your brother very much but
we all can’t ignore the fact that sbu is also one
gorgeous man and you can see that he’s also a
beast in bed. Is he packed down there? ” we
laugh
“ Oh I always knew that behind that good girl
persona is one freaky girl like this one. ” Sims
says pointing at me and we laugh.. “ and to
answer your questions yes he is packed and he
is a beast too like my man. Guys it was
wonderful and they made sure that it was about
me only. ”
“ Wow. How am I going to look at sbu now
without blushing ” lesego though.
“ the same way I do. Like nothing happened. ”
Sims says.
“ so it wasn’t awkward after you did the deed? ”
I ask her.
“ No. We all knew and understand that it is just
sex. Nothing more and nothing less. Sbu left we
were done and then me and my man continued
until I passed out. ”
“ I don’t think mbuso would want to do that and
allow another man to touch me. ”
“ I don’t know about scelo cause that man is a
freak ”
“ oh my god lesego that’s my brother and I
don’t want to know about your sex life? ” I say
laughing
“ oh please. I have you two only to ask for
advice about some sex stuff so you’ll have to be
strong. ” she gulps her wine down.
“ so what is the problem now?. ” I ask Sims.
“ I feel like bonga has been pulling away from
me. I don’t know if I did something that day or
what. I don’t know guys. ”
“ did you ask him what’s wrong? ”
“ I did and he says it’s nothing. Just stress from
this whole situation with finding mbuso’s mom.
”
“ Maybe it is the stress Sims but if you feel like
you know it’s not the stress that is causing him
pull away then you need to sit down and talk to
him.”
“ I’m trying but he’s working until late and
Gosh I don’t know what to do. ”
“ Start a fight with him then when you see that
he’s really mad take off your clothes and argue
naked. When he tries to touch you make him tell
you what’s bothering him. ” she looks at me like
a light bulb has been switched on.
“ I will certainly do that. Does it work on
mbuso? ” Sims asks.
“ every time and I always end up screaming his
name and agreeing to some things I wasn’t
planning to so be careful. ” I say chuckling.
“ I think I will do that too tonight so he will
agree to not let my sister come. ”
“ Good luck cause you’re going to need it. ” we
laugh.
“ good afternoon mama kamo Mom can we
talk? ” it’s melusi. Sims gets up.
“ hey boy. Have the others arrived yet?. ”
“ yes mama uncle dropped them off and left. ”
he says then they leave.
“ Why didn’t he comes and greet us? ” she asks.
“ maybe he did and heard us talking about Sims
and her threesome. ” we look at each other then
burst out laughing.
“ let’s go have something to eat. ” we get up.
“ the way you have been eating luh I would
swear your pregnant. ” I stop walking and look
at her.
“ I am on birth control lesego and there’s no
way in hell I’m getting pregnant so soon. My
kids are still young. If there’s anyone who
should be pregnant here it’s you and Sims. ” she
laughs at me.
“ oh I got you so good. You should have seen
the look on your face ” I join her and laugh.
She’s crazy and I love her.

CHAPTER 59.

SIMS.
Talking to luh made me think that maybe bonga
pulling away it’s not because of the threesome
we had. I mean he would have told me the
moment sbu left that he didn’t like it or it made
him feel a certain way. I could be imaging
things but I know my man something is
bothering him. I’m lost deep in thoughts and I
don’t hear him coming in cause I feel him
wrapping his arms around me and kissing my
cheek.
“ What are you thinking about? ” he keeps
planting kisses around my neck
“ We need to talk. ” he moves his hips and he’s
as hard as a rock.
“ About what? ” I try to turn to face him but he
stops me. “ don’t turn. ” he says. He takes off
his shirt and throws it and his pants follow as
they hit the floor. He takes off his shoes grabs
my dress and rips it apart and I gasp. I look at
him and see this determines look on his face.
My skin breaks out in goose bumps anticipating
what’s to come. He pulls my underwear down
and I try to take off my bra but again he stops
me.
“ leave it.” He says and I do. “ hold on to the
counter and don’t let go. ” He pushes my legs
apart. I feel his hand on my vagina and I sigh.
I’m a little wet so he plays with my clit until I’m
ready. His dick is on my wall then he thrusts in
hard and I bite my lip and close my eyes. Okay
this is all about him now and I have to let take
out whatever frustration he’s feeling out on my
body.
He pushes my chest to lay flat on the counter
then he grips my bra tight and it digs on my skin
and he fucks me hard. His thrusts get faster and
harder knocking air out of my body. His skin
and he’s groans are the only sounds filling our
house. He let’s go of my bra and puts his hands
on my shoulders holding tight flexes his hips
bending a little then he moves up and deeper in
me and fucks me hard until I feel his dick
growing in me and it twitches inside and I know
he’s near. He’s going to come. He plays with
my clit and I try to fight my orgasm then he lays
his chest on my back turns my head and kisses
me deeply and it’s like it was what I needed his
kiss and hand on my clit. My legs shake and I
moan. He hits my g- spot and I climax moaning.
He pulls out turns me around picks me up and I
wrap my legs around his waist and he walks to
the living room and lays me on the carpet and
rams into me again. Fuck!. I look at him and
he’s eyes are closed like he's far away from here
even though his body is here. He buries his face
on my neck and fucks me hard and raw. Bonga
has never fucked me like this. Even when he
was rough it has never been this way. I brush his
back and let him have his fill until he groans and
cums in me.
We lay like that not saying anything. He looks
at me and I give him a small smile. He gets up
and I sit up and watch him. He goes to the
kitchen and I think he’s going to look for wipes.
I wait and wait but he doesn’t come back cause I
hear the car pulling out of the driveway and he
leaves. What the hell? Tears prickle my eyes so
I get up and some of his seed slides down my
thighs. I carefully run to the kitchen take my
underwear and wile myself. Tears fall down my
face as I make my way to the bathroom.
I fill the rub with water then I get in and wash
my body crying. I know now that bonga is not
happy with me about the threesome. He
probably regrets it and maybe blames me for
agreeing. I sit on the bath crying until my tears
stop. I get out wash the tub dry myself
moisturize and wear my leggings and T-shirt. I
go down stairs pick up my clothes and take
them to the laundry room. Then continue to
cook dinner. My phone pings and I take it. It’s
melusi.
“ Hey boy? ”
“ Nah did you talk to dad? ” he asks.
“ He’s not home baby. I will call you when he
comes home. Okay? ”
“ okay love you. ”
“ I love you. ” he hangs up and I sigh. I look at
the time and it’s almost 7 PM. I want to call him
but I don’t want to also. I watch TV and wait for
him. When it’s 8:30 pm I realise that he’s going
to come when I’m already in bed. I plate his
food then put it in the microwave then I make
mine. Eat switch off the lights and go to my
bedroom. I brush my teeth take off my clothes
wear my nightdress and get in bed and fall
asleep.
I hear him flushing the toilet and I open my
eyes. I search for my phone to look at the time
and it’s almost midnight. Where was he?. I
don’t know if I should pretend to be still
sleeping or talk to him now cause he’s
obviously avoiding me but I’ve never been that
person to just not talk about things. I don’t know
what’s eating him and why he treated me the
way he did and just left me like I’m his side
chick and not his wife. He comes out and I sit
up and look at him.
“ why didn’t you let me know that you’re going
to be home late? ” he drops his towel and gets in
bed.
“ I was working and I forgot my phone in the
car. ”
“ You’re office doesn’t have a phone now? ”
“ I was busy working. ” I sigh.
“ Why are you hurting me bonga? ” he looks at
me and shakes his head.
“ what are you talking about?. ”
“ what do you mean what am I talking about.
The way you left me today after fucking me like
that? you just leave me like that on the floor like
I’m some piece of trash and you don’t even
have the decency to tell me that you’re leaving
and you’re asking me what am I talking about?.
”
“ I received an emergency call and I had to
leave. ” he says like it’s not a big deal.
“ do I look like a fool to you bonga?. How dare
you lie like that to my face. What did I do to get
this cold treatment from you? What are you
punishing me for so I can apologize cause I
can’t take this treatment?. Tell me?!. ”
“ I had a long day at work I’m tired and I just
want to sleep. Can you let me sleep? ”
“ no we are going to talk about this now!. ”
“ I’m not going to talk to you right now when
you’re busy shouting at me. I’m your husband
simphiwe remember that. ”
“ then act like my husband and tell me what is
wrong? Why are you pulling away from me? ”
“ Fuck this shit! I’m going to sleep in the boys
room!. ” he says getting up and I burst out
crying.
“ Run away like you always do when I try to
talk to you. ”
“ Sims let it go. ” he says warning me.
“ the reason your pulling away from me and
treating me like trash is because you blame me
for agreeing to the threesome right? Is that it?. ”
“ what? I don’t have for this shit! ” he walks to
the door.
“ Please don’t go. Bonga?... Bonga?. ” he leaves
and bangs the door behind him. Maybe I
shouldn’t have pushed him. Maybe I should
have just let it go and met him talk to me when
he’s ready. I let few tears stream down the calm
myself. I sleep thinking about how I regret
agreeing to this damn stupid threesome bullshit
cause it was just sex and nothing more. I don’t
get how can he be upset with me when he was
enjoying the moment as much as I did.
It’s Saturday morning and I even forgot to ask
bonga about melusi's date. I go through my
phone then call the number melusi gave me. The
phone rings and a woman answers.
“ hello?. ”
“ hi can I please speak to Mrs Davis? ”
“ This is her speaking. ”
“ hi my name is Simphiwe Gumede and I’m
calling on behalf of my son Melusi who goes to
school with your daughter Becky?. ”
“ Oh yes. She told me about him and that his
mom will call. ”
“ yes. So I don’t know if she said anything more
but my son wanted to ask you her parents if it’s
okay to take her out on an ice cream date since
she is celebrating her birthday with an adult
supervision of course. ”
“ She did say and we talked with her dad and we
agreed. You can come and pick her up at 2 pm. I
will send you our address. ”
“ okay. Thank you Mrs Davis. ”
“ my pleasure but can you please bring your ID
just to be safe you know. ” what?
“ It’s okay I understand. ” I hang up. I send luh
a message and ask her to tell melusi to get ready
for his date then send him a message that I’ll
pick him up. He sends me love emojis and I
laugh. I get up make my bed then shower. After
I’m done I go down stairs to make myself
breakfast and I find bonga drinking his bottled
water. I stop and think of going back or go to
luh’s house. I pass him and open the fridge and
take a things out to prepare breakfast and I don’t
know if he’s going to eat or not. If he doesn’t
eat I’ll just put it in the oven and if he does well
it’s good. I decided to make a mean omelette
and thanks to luh and YouTube my cooking has
gotten really better and I must say I can cook
now. Well not as good as her.
“ morning. ” he says gets up and leaves. What is
going on with my marriage?. I feel so emotional
right now and I just want my mom. I take my
phone and call her.
“ Hello baby ”
“ How are you mom?. ”
“ I’m good baby. What’s wrong? ”
“ I just miss you that’s all. I’m thinking of
coming home to see you. It’s been a while and I
miss you. ”
“ That would be lovely. We miss you too and
the boys. When will you be coming?. ”
“ Next weekend ma.. ”
“ will you be coming with umkhwenyana? ( son
in-law?) ”
“ No ma. He’s very busy with work he won’t be
coming. ”
“ ok sisi. Say hello to your husband and
grandkids. ”
“ Ok ma. I’ll see you next week Bye. ” I hang
up and sigh.
“ Where are you going?. ” I almost cut myself
with a knife cause he scared me.
“ home. ”
“ Why? ”
“ I miss my family. ” I continue not chop not
looking at him.
“ ok I’m going to work. I’ll see you later. ”
“ Can we please talk before you leave bonga? ”
“ I’m late well talk when I come back. ”
“ Ok. ” I say and he leaves just like that. What
did I do wrong here? Can someone tell me
please cause he refuses to tell me.
I finish making breakfast eat and change my
clothes then drive to luh's house. I sit in the car
for a while and just think how my marriage right
now is not okay. I don’t know what to do cause
he won’t talk to me. I hear a knock on the
window and it’s luh. She has sbonelo. I swear
this child is really like his father cause he
always wants to be with his mom just like
mbuso. I unlock the door and they get in.
“ Hey my baby.. Hey sis. ” I kids his chubby
cheeks and he laughs. “ Oh we are smiling today
and not scowling like dadddy huh?. Did you
miss me?. ” he continue to laugh as I tickle him
the he wants his mama. Yeah I’m not surprised.
“ Hey sis are you okay? ” luh asks.
“ No I’m not. We’re fighting with bonga and I
don’t know what’s wrong luh. . Yesterday I
wanted to talk to him but he came home almost
at midnight and when I asked him if we can talk
he refused and said he’s tired he had along day
at work. He left our bedroom and slept in one of
the boys room and this morning he just left.” I
want to cry but I don’t want to upset sbonelo.
“ that is so unlike him. Maybe he’s really tired.
Remember they are busy with our offices so
maybe that’s why he’s being distant. ”
“ I wish he would just talk to me you know.
Open up so I can know how he’s feeling and if I
can help him with anything or maybe give him
the space he needs. I think I’m going to do that.
I’m tired of asking him if we can talk when he
clearly refuses to do that. ”
“ No sims bonga loves you and he’s your
husband. He needs you now more than ever.
Maybe this thing with his mom is clearly
hurting him more than we thought and you
know some men find it hard to open up and talk
about what is hurting them and clearly bonga is
one of them. Look I made breakfast and there’s
more left. Why don’t you come in and we pack
everything nice inside a picnic basket then you
take it to his office. Don’t force him to talk. Just
have breakfast then come back. ”
“ yeah maybe when we are in an environment
outside our home we would be able to talk and
not fight I guess. I mean you’re right that he’s
working on our offices cause it’s Saturday. It
does make sense that he would come home late
and tired. ”
“ come. ” we get out of the car and luh helps me
pack the scrumptious breakfast she made. After
we are done she helps me carry the basket to the
car.
“ thank you sis. ” I hug her.
“ Remember it’s breakfast. Don’t talk about
what is stressing you or him. After you’re done
come back. ”
“ I’ll do that. Oh before I forget I called Becky’s
mom Mrs Davis. She said we can pick up Becky
at 2pm. If I’m not back by then can you drive
them to their date and be their chaperone? I’ll
send you the her home address and oh please
take some ID with you cause apparently she
wants to know who we are. In case we kidnap
her child. ” we both laugh
“ that’s not funny sims. ” I send her the address.
“ Go feed your man sis. ” she says.
“ I’ll see you when I get back. ” I get in the car
drive out and straight to my husbands office.
When I get there I see his car parked and I
smile. He’s going to be so surprised. I take the
picnic basket and one of the security guards
helps me carry it.
“ Mrs Gumede how are you? ”
“ I’m good Mr bulo. Mr Nala. ” me Nala nods
and they carry the basket until the reception and
it’s empty. I guess he’s working alone. “ Thank
you ” they nod and leave. I knock once then
open his door
“ honey I know… ” I stop cause there’s no one
in the office but how cause his car is parked
outside?. I put the basket on the table then go
and open the door connecting to his bathroom
and it’s also empty. Where is my husband?.
I come out and sit on his chair. I try to do
something for him but he’s not at work or
maybe he took the company car and went to the
site yes he did. I see a paper sticking out
underneath the basket I placed on his table. I
pull it out and open it and I see a address and
time and number. I take my phone and type the
address and it’s a hotel. He came here first
parked his car then left for the hotel.? I could
call him and ask him where he is and hear what
he would say but no. Let me not do that. I leave
the basket there and leave his office. I don’t say
anything and I get in my car. I put the address
on my GPS and drive to the hotel. This place
looks dodgy. I walk to the reception.
“ Hi I’m here to meet someone on room 204 and
I was wondering if they have arrived?. ” he
smiles at me and I smile back.
“ uh let me check… ”I hear his keyboard
clicking then he looks up. “ yes they did. You
can go ahead fourth floor. ” he says.
“ Thank you. ” I give him my best smile but
inside my heart is beating so fast it feels like it
is going to explode at any moment. I get in the
elevator and take a deep breath. This hotel looks
cheap like it’s something I would never except
to find bonga in. I might be wrong cause maybe
he’s not here but I have to know if my husband
is meeting someone. If he’s cheating on me.
I get out of the elevator and look at the door
numbers. I walk until I find the room number
I’m looking for. I put my head on the door to
hear if I can hear anything and I don’t cause it
sounds like the TV is playing. I lightly knock
with my head still on the door but I don’t hear
any footsteps just the tv only. I take a very deep
breath cause my body is shaking badly. I try my
luck and open my door and it’s unlocked. Fuck
me. Who goess to a hotel and not lock their
door?. A cocky mother fucker does that. I push
the door open and get in. The first door that I
see opened is the bathroom. I walk in and I see a
TV facing me playing. The door leading to that
room is opened. I continue to walk and see a
bed. A woman and a man on the bed. The
woman is on top of the man and she’s fucking
his brains off and he’s enjoying cause his hands
are like holding her ass and he’s helping her
fuck him.
His groans are the same ones he makes when he
fucks me. Those legs arms and hands all belong
to my cheating husband. My heart breaks into
pieces as I see them together enjoying each
other. I burst out crying and bonga looks up sees
me and he pushes the girl off of him and the girl
screams cause she falls to the floor.
“ Oh my God baby?!. I can explain my wife! Oh
my God! ” he says getting up and comes toward
me.
“ don’t you dare come near me!.” He stops. “
why didn’t you tell me you wanted an open
marriage than to cheat on me?. ” tears stream
down my face
“ I’m sorry baby. I’m really sorry. ”
“ How long have you been cheating on me? ” I
ask him and he looks down shaking his head.
“ 6 months. I love him and he loves me. ”
“ Shut up bitch!. Baby let’s go home and talk ”
he says wearing his clothes.
“ now you want to talk? ” I ask him.
“ simphiwe let’s go home please baby I’m
begging you!. ”
“ I hope she was worth it. I hope she was worth
our marriage. ” I walk out and leave the room. I
don’t know how I walked out of the hotel to my
car and straight to my house. My whole body
feels heavy like I’m going to fall at any
moment. I park my car in the garage then slowly
walk to the kitchen and as soon as I close the
door I fall down and fall apart.

CHAPTER 60

SIMS.

#NotEdited
I’m still on the floor crying my eyes out for
this man that I love who’s my husband and
my everything. I thought my marriage was
strong that no one can come between me
and my husband. I thought our love and
trust for each other was enough for both of
us. Clearly I was wrong cause everything I
thought was going on with him was
because of his mom and everything but it
wasn’t. He was having an affair with
someone for the whole 6 months. He was
making love to her while I got fucked like I
was a piece of trash. I will never forget the
picture of them together like that. Bonga
broke me he destroyed everything I believe
in. My hopes and dreams. My trust for him
and our marriage. My all and everything I
have ever given this man wasn’t enough
cause he saw fit to give and seek comfort in
the arms of another woman.
I wipe my tears then get up and go to my
bedroom. I take my phone then send luh a
message that the breakfast picnic went
great with bonga and I’ll see her tomorrow. I
take off my clothes wear my swim suit then
go downstairs to the basement open the
cellar and take the wine bottles then leave. I
hear a car pulling up and I look outside the
window and it’s him. I turn and go outside
the back yard put everything on the table
then jump in the pool. I let the water caress
my body as I swim lap after lap after lap
until I feel exhausted. I drag my tired body
out of the water and see him sitting there
watching me. I ignore him dry myself open
the bottle of wine pour it and drink. I gulp
down three glasses then leave. I have to
wash the chlorine off my skin.
Deciding not to have a housekeeper was
the best decision I have ever made cause
right now they would know that something
is going on between me and my husband. It
is just the two of us in the house. The kids
are not here to see what is going on and by
Sunday when they come back I’ll make
sure that I have put myself back together
again. I don’t want anyone to know what is
going in my marriage cause everyone will
be up in my business and I also don’t want
this to affect the others marriages.I guess
that’s gojng to be my life right now.
Pretending that everything is okay in our
marriage.
I stand in front of the mirror and look at
myself taking off the swimsuit. What is
wrong with me that made my husband
cheat on me?. Was it because I’m not
skinny? more beautiful enough? Not
spontaneous cause I thought I was. I
thought being open with our sex life he
would resist the temptation to cheat
because he is getting everything from me
but obviously I was wrong and not
spontaneous enough. Just when I think I
have everything I have ever wanted then
boom it all blows up in my face. My life is
not as perfect as I thought. I wish these
stupid tears would stop falling and I would
stop feeling the way I’m feeling. My heart
hurts so bad and it feels like my life is over
and it has ended. God give me strength. I
see his reflection in the mirror and our eyes
lock. I look away
“ There’s nothing wrong with you. You are
absolutely perfect in every way.” He’s a
mind reader now?.
“ wasn’t I enough for you? ” he sighs and
walks in and stands behind me. He’s big
taller and stronger than me. I used to love it
when he would stand behind pull me closer
to his chest then turn my head and kiss me
senseless. But now I hate him standing
behind me like that. I hate that I want to fall
apart and let him comfort me knowing very
well that he’s the reason I’m feeling this
way.
“ You’ve always been enough for me.
You’re everything to me simphiwe I know I
hurt you but it was never my intention. ”
“ why did you do it then? ”
“ Because I was selfish and I wasn’t
thinking about how it is going to destroy my
family. ” I shake my head.
“ You mean you didn’t think I was going to
find out right?. If luh didn’t… . You know
what I’m done talking about this. For the
whole 6 months you’ve been having an
relationship with another woman. An affair
and while I was here waiting for you
begging you to talk to me but you weren’t
interested cause you wanted to be
somewhere else away from me!.You fucked
me like I was a piece of trash!. Do you
know how how dirty you made me feel?. ”
“ Baby no!. Please… . ”
“ baby? Is that what you called her too?.
Baby when you made love to her? God the
sounds you made… . You were enjoying
her!. You gave her the pleasure you failed
to give me! Wasn’t I enough for bonga? Tell
me!. ”
“ you are everything to me. You and our
boys are everything to me baby. I wish I
could take back everything wr6ing I did to
you. I wish I didn’t cheat on you baby. ”
“ should I be worried about STDs and HIV?
”
“ what no!. I could never put your life in
danger like that. I used a condom every
time. ”
“ And that is suppose to make me feel
better right?. ”
“ No. ” he sighs and sits down in the toilet
seat and covers his face. “ I am so
ashamed for what I did to you. I am so
ashamed that I treated you so bad and
made you think that my behaviour was your
fault when it wasn’t. ”
“ did I push you to cheat bonga? ”
“ Please stop saying this. I am the one
who’s in the wrong here and not too. You
love me you support me. You are the best
thing that has ever happened to me and I
took you for granted. You do everything to
make me happy baby and I fucked it all up.
”
“ I thought we were on the same page. No
one cheats. If you feel like you want to do
something we talk about it and agree like
how we did with the threesome. Did you
agree to the threesome cause you wanted
to ease your guilty conscience?. Is that it? ”
“ No baby I didn’t ask you because I was
feeling guilty. We both agreed cause it’s
what we both wanted. I don’t regret what
we shared together with him. Baby what
you gave me when you agreed to the
threesome is something both at I will never
forget. You were concentrating on me the
whole entire time. I enjoyed watching him
fucked you and you watching me. He
respected you and treated you like the
beautiful woman you are. ” he gets up

we talk about it and agree like how we did

“ No baby I didn’t ask you because I was

you gave me when you agreed to the
threesome is something both at I will never

fucked you and you watching me. He
respected you and treated you like the
beautiful woman you are. ” he gets up
comes towards me and his front touches
my back. I take a deep breath.
“ yes we agreed on that what I didn’t agree
on was you fucking another woman. We
don’t have an open marriage and we never
will. You hurt me in ways I never thought
were possible and I hate you right now. I
hate looking at you I hate that you’re
standing behind me still smelling like that
piece of trash you fucked. I hate that you
made me question myself worth but what I
hate the most is that you didn’t just hurt me.
You hurt the boys too. Tell me how are we
going to explain all this to them? ”
“ they don’t have to know baby. Just tell me
what to do so I can fix this.”
“ I didn’t send you out to cheat so why must
I tell you how to fix what you broke?. You fix
this whole mess you created… .. ” I take a
deep breath. “ the boys aw re coming back
on Sunday and you are right. I don’t want to
disappoint my kids on another failed
relationship because for the first time in a
long time they have everything they have
ever wanted. A dad who loves them
unconditionally who’s always there for
them. We are a family and I don’t want to
take that away from them. They are
deserve to have a happy and loving home
but I’m not happy now bonga. ” I sniff.
“ Just give me a chance to fix our marriage
and I promise I’ll make everything better
between us. Just don’t tell me you want us
to separate cause that will kill me baby
please… . ” I take a step away from him.
“ My family didn’t allow you to marry me so
you can lie cheat on me and break my heart
bonga. I didn’t sign up for this. ”
“ You’re my wife simphiwe in every way and
I don’t want to lose my family too. I don’t
want the boys to know cause that is going
to hurt them and they are going to be very
disappointed in me. I will make all of this
right between us I promise you. ”
“ you are going to be sleeping in the couch
here cause I don’t want the boys to know or
even suspect anything is wrong between
us. I don’t want anyone to know that you
cheated on me because I don’t want luh
and less go to think that maybe mouse and
scelo might cheat on them too. I want you
to give me space and deal with everything.
”
“ You can take all the time you need and I
will gain your trust and prove my loyalty and
love to you. ”
“ I’ve heard that before. ”
“ Baby… . ”
“ was she the only one you cheated on me
with for 6 months? ” he sighs.
“ She’s the only one and she’s lying. It’s not
6 months. ”
“ Oh really? Why would she lie about that?
”
“ She has been my client for 6 months only
and we… I slept with her only four times.
That’s all. ”
“ you want to fix things between us but
you’re already lying to me about her? ”
“ I’m not lying baby I swear. ”
“ How did she become your client? ”
“ she came to my office because she
wanted me to make her a house plan. They
bought land so they are planning to build
their home. ”
“ She’s married? ”
“ She is married. ” hmmm
“ you have people who work for you so why
would she personally want you to make her
a house plan cause you don’t that
anymore? ”
“ I think maybe because her husband is a
politician that’s why. ”
“ Who’s her husband? ”
“ Vukani Buthelezi. ”
“ the minister of finance? You fucked his
wife? Oh my God bonga? ”
“ What if he finds out? ”
“ I don’t care about them. She ruined her
marriage Just like I ruined mine. ”
“ you are going to drop her as a client. I
don’t want her anywhere near the company.
If I find out that you are talking to her again
or lying to protect her and keeping other lies
concerning her or anyone else that you
were cheated on me with?. You will regret
the day you decided to cross me. I’m not
one to be messed with bonga cause I don’t
just get mad I get even. I leave him there
looking at me shocked.
I get in the bathroom and take my time and
shower. I come out when I’m done and find
him sitting on the bed with his head in his
shoulder and I feel irritated that he is still
here. I moisturize my body then look for
something to wear cause I have something
I have to be at. I wear my matching bra and
underwear then look for my jeans and T-
shirt do a little make up then wear my curly
weave. Even though I feel like shit inside
but in the outside I look damn hot. I have
done this before and I can do it again.
Pretend to be fine while I’m not. It’s not
something knew.
“ Where are you going? ”
“ Away from you. ” I look for my hand bag
then remember I left it in the car.
“ what did you mean when you said you get
even? ”
“ I meant exactly that!. ” he gets up trying to
intimidate me and it’s nit going to work.
“ Are you planning on cheating on me? ”
“ if I do then you would know how it feels
and how I’m feeling. ”
“ you better be not thinking of doing
something stupid. ”
“ Maybe I want to be stupid on my terms
cause you and the men I’ve been with see it
fit to treat me like I am stupid. ”
“ You are a mother sims you can’t go and
do stupid and reckless things!. ”
“ save that fact and opinion when I have
done something stupid!. ”
“ don’t talk to me like that sims. I’m still your
husband!. ”
“ Oh yes you’re my husband when it suits
you right? ” he sighs and walks close to me
and I take step back.
“ baby you are angry right now and not
thinking straight. I don’t want you to do
something that you’ll regret later and put
your life in danger. ” I walk around him to
leave but he blocks my way.
“ get out of my bonga! I asked you to give
me time and stay out of my way and you
agreed!. ”
“ No!. You’re not leaving this house cause I
know you are going to get drunk and hurt
yourself. ”
“ what I do is none of your business. A few
hours you didn’t care about where I go and
what I do so don’t start now!. ”
“ if you want to get drunk then get drunk in
this house. I’ll stay away from you just don’t
leave please baby don’t.”
“ I don’t want to be in this house right now. I
want to go somewhere and be able to
breath away from you. You’re suffocating
me!. ”
“ ohk fine. Let me call luh and lesego to
come here so you won’t be alone. ”
“ no!. You keep them out of your dirty mess.
I don’t want them to see me like this or you
want them to know what you did to me
huh? ”
“ Of course not but you need them baby. ”
“ What I need is to be away from you cause
I can’t look at you without feeling
disgusted!. ” I scream at him and he
winces. I walk to the bed and burst into
tears and cry hysterically. The bed dips and
he wraps his arms around me pulling me
close so I can cry on his chest. I fight him
off and keep hitting him but he doesn’t let
go instead he holds me tight.

BONGA

I remove her shoes cover her with a throw

blanket then go to the bathroom and take
one of her facial wipes and wipe her
beautiful face. She curls her body like a
foetus and sniffs and I watch her until her
breathing gets even and she falls asleep. I
leave our bedroom and go downstairs and
sit on the couch. How could I be so stupid
and cheat on her?. The look on her face
when she saw me with her will haunt me
forever. It keeps playing over and over my
mind and I took feel sick and disgusted with
myself. I knew she wanted me to fucked her
and at the end I gave in and fucked her. It
wasn’t suppose to happen but I let it
happen and it was like I couldn’t help
myself. Fuck!.
I take the decadent and drink the whisky
inside. What if she decides she doesn’t
want to be with me anymore? What will I do
cause I can’t live without her and our kids?
What the hell did I do and how am I going
to fix this whole mess I created?. Sima is a
very strong woman who doesn’t let anything
get in her way. She’s a determines person
who does what she wants when she wants
that’s one of the things I love about her and
scare me to. She told me straight to my
face that she doesn’t just get mad she also
gets even and that scares the shot out of
me to think that’s she might decide to cheat
on me. I will kill any man who dares to
touch her. I’ll kill all of them. My phone rings
and Its in the kitchen counter. I look at it
and it’s that damn bitch.
“ Didn’t I tell you to never contact me
again? ”
“ we have a good thing going between us
and it’s good now that your wife knows. We
ain’t have to sneak around anymore bonga.
”
“ bitch you’re fucken crazy. We have
nothing going on. I was just fuxking you
taking my frustrations out on you. Don’t you
dare act like we were lovers cause we were
fucken not! ”
“ I am ready to leave my husband for you
bonga you can’t just dump me like that?!. I
won’t let you!. ”
“ let me? You the duck do you think you’re
talking to bitch! ”
“ you bonga!. I won’t let you fuck me like
that then throw me on the side. Look I’m
willing to be your second wife cause I
loveyouu and want to be with you!. ”
“ Listen to me and listen very carefully. I am
married to one woman and one wants only.
I don’t want you or anyone else for that
matter. I used you like how you used me to
scratch your itch now get over it and find
someone else to fuck you. ”
“ No! No! No!. I want you!. ”
“ you don’t want to piss me off khensani I’m
warning you!. ”
“ I’m going to go to the police and tell them
you raped me!. ” this twisted demented
bitch!.
“I dare you to go!. Before you’re even done
making your statement the whole world will
know who’s the father of those kids that
your husband thinks are his. He will know
that he’s actually raising his grandkids not
his kids. I will leak all videos of us fucking
and those of the other ministers you have
fucked in your home. ”
“ What? You don’t know what you’re talking
about! “
“ I have proof bitch. I don’t get into business
with just anyone. I have to know who am I
getting in bed with and you are a very bad
bitch. Your husband is not so squeaky
clean too. His skeletons in the closet will kill
you. Now do yourself a uge favour. Stay the
fuck away from me and my wife. If I hear or
see that you breathing in her direction I will
leak everything to the media and ruin you!.
Try me bitch! ” I hang up and throw the
whole decadent in the wall and it breaks
into pieces. Fuck this bitch!. I need a
distraction before on go find that bitch and
kill her. I take my phone and order food
from mrD foods. Sims is going to wake up
feeling hungry. I have to talk to mbuso and
tell him what’s going on in case that bitch
causes trouble for me. I dial his number and
wait as it rings.
“ brother? ”
“ how far are you? ”
“ what’s wrong? ”
“ Nothing. How far are you? ”
“ we are going to be home in five hours.
What is wrong bonga? ”
“ I messed up.. I really did. ”
“ Sims found out that you’re fucking that girl
didn’t she? ”
“ What? You knew? ”
“ of course I knew! The moment you asked
me to find something about her I knew!. I
just knew it and I told you to stay away from
that bitch and you didn’t listen to me bonga
as always and now look what happened! ”
“ I’m sorry man!. ”
“ You are about to lose your family brother
because of some piece of ass. How stupid
can you be? ”
“ she’s going to cause problems for me and
I can’t have that!. ”
“ on top of everything we are dealing with
you go and decide to go and cheat on your
wife brother why? ”
“ I don’t know! ”
“ Don’t fucken tell me that!. You know why
you cheated so don’t bullshit me bonga!. ”
“ I was. scared okay! I was fucken scared
that sims might betray me the way mom did
but I ended up being the one to betray her!.
”
“ how cause sims doesn’t have a twin and
there’s one her in this world so explain it to
me? ”
“ What if she keeps some big secrets from
me and I find out later in our marriage like
how mom did?”
“ oh my fucken God!. ” mbuso says and I
hear a gasp. I look up and it’s her fuck me!.
“ Baby I… . ”
“ I am not like your mother bonga and I
would never betray you like that. Ever!. ”
she says crying. Why do I keep adding
more problems on top of the one’s I already
have.
“ I have to go. We’ll talk. ”
“ I’ll have a talk with that bitch. Fix this
bonga sims doesn’t deserve this. ”
“ I know brother. I will. ” I hang up.

CHAPTER 61.

BONGA
#NOTEDITEDSORRY

I run to stop her from leaving my ass cause I

know she’s at her last straw now. She’s in the
lounge sitting on the carpet and drinking whisky
straight from the bottle. I sit down next to her
take the bottle and drink from it.
“ I’m not the person you fell in love with.
Learning these secre6 my mother kept from us
changed me. It made me question myself and
you. How can I trust that you won’t keep secrets
from me that could destroy our family like how
my mom did. That is very wrong of me to
compare her to you cause you are nothing like
my mom and you could never intentionally hurt
me like how I have hurt you and lied to you. …
” she takes the bottle from me and drinks then
gives it to me.
“ you asked me not to hurt you and the boys and
I promised you that then I go and do the very
same thing I promised you that I wouldn’t do.
You did tell me that if I mess up you’re out of
the door. Please don’t leave me baby I’m
begging you. I wouldn’t know what to do
without you in my life. You’re everything to me
simphiwe. I will never love another woman they
I love you and our kids. I should have told you
my fears and what I was thinking instead of
keeping them from you.. You’re my confidant
and I failed to confide in you my wife and you
keep on begging me to talk to you and I just
couldn’t. I am ashamed baby about what my
mom did. I am so very scared too… ”
She looks at me and takes my hand. “ what are
you scared of?. ” O turn and face her.
“ I’m scared that I hate my mom for what she
did. I’m scared that I want to kill her for ruining
all of our lives. Mbuso or dad might decide to
kill her and the fact that it would hurt me and at
the same time it wouldn’t hurt me scares the shit
out of me. I want to forgive her for what she did
but then how do I do that when my brother was
robbed of his mother and brother. What if this
whole thing ruins my relationship with my
brother. Zipho is in Joburg and wants nothing to
do with our mother. Our little brother is hurting
right now and he refuses to see us or talk to us.
He loves our mother so much and bearing what
she did broke him more than it did to all of us.
I’m worried about sims. ”
“ You have to give him time remember that
zipho is not like you or mbuso. He’s a free spirit
who doesn’t want things to be forced down his
throat so all of you have to stop forcing him to
talk and come back home. He will come back on
his own time when he wants to. Right now you
should all support him from afar. Your real with
mbuso can never be ruined by anything or
anyone unless you hurt luh in some way that
would piss him off. What I’m trying to say is
even though the both of you don’t share the
same mother it doesn’t change that you love her
and mostly you both love each other very much
and your bond as brothers is very strong. Your
blood brothers bonga and that is never going to
change I wish you would have talked to me
about what you are feeling and we wouldn’t be
in this situation right now. ”
“ I know baby. I would her this fear when I
think about telling you all the things that scare
me. ”
“ you were scared that I’ll somehow I’ll see you
weak and nit this strong composed man who has
everything together. What made you weak in
my eyes bonga was when you chose to have an
affair. I am not just your wife when things are
good and all rosy. I’m your wife in everything
good bad and the ugly. You don’t get to make
decisions about what I should know and what
not. You don’t get to keep things from me cause
that would mean I’m only getting the half of
you not all of you if you keep sharing the good
things only and not the bad and very ugly. I love
you bonga your family is also my family. The
family’s dirty laundry is my dirty laundry too. I
hate feeling like my husband is is afraid of
talking to me because he thinks I’ll see him as a
weak man but when I look at him I see man
who’s mother has hurt him so bad. The woman
whom he loved and adored hurt him in ways he
didn’t think we’re possible. I have proven to
you that I love you and you can trust me. I can
never judge you bonga for your mother’s
actions but only your own. You are an amazing
loving and caring man and I love you. I am
giving you another chance to make things right
between us because if you try bonga I will leave
your cute little ass and I won’t look back.” She
tears up.
“ I know baby and I poor you that I will work
hard and be the man you deserve. ” she gulps
down a huge drink then burps.
“ do you see that it wasn’t so hard to just tell me
how you feel?. ”
“ I know that now. I really wish I can go back in
time and fix everything. ” I seriously do.
“ I think you should talk to your mom. You
mbuso and zipho. She made a huge mistake and
I know she regrets it now. She just got jealous
because her sister had a better life than her. You
love your mother and your dad too and she
needs to know that cause look at how she and
your dad raised three amazing men. She does
deserve some credit bonga. She could have
mistreated mbuso and love only her kids but she
didn’t. She treated you all the same. No child
was loved more than the other and that’s why all
three of you love each other so much. If mbuso
wanted to kill her he would have done that the
moment she confessed. He didn’t kill her cause
she’s his mother and he loves her. That’s why
you all should just go to her tell her how you
feel and how her revelations have changed your
lives. ” I look at her in awe. How could in hurt
this wonderful and gentle soul.
“ you are an amazing woman simphiwe and I
wish my mom could have opened her heart and
gotten to know you and see that you’re a
wonderful wife and an amazing mother. I love
you simphiwe and I’ll prove my live to you for
the return of my life. ” she smiles.
“ You better. ” I brush her tears pull her face to
me and kiss her. She doesn’t kiss me back and I
understand. We look at each and it’s like time
stands still. I love her. I really do. The bell at the
gate rings disturbing our moment.
“ who could that be? ” she asks.
“ I ordered food. I’ll be back. ” I get up and go
to the gate pay the guy and come back.
“ Wow so much food? ”
“ I thought you are going to wake up hungry and
I wanted you to have some time off from
cooking. ”
“ Thank you. ” she smiles.
“ You know we can find someone to help you
around the house?. ”
“ nope. I don’t trust them. ” we have heard this
conversation a thousand times.
“ You need help baby. This house is big. ”
“ I know and I love cleaning my own house. I
don’t want another stranger in our private space
touching our things. ”
“ What’s going to happen when you begin
working? ”
“ We will cross that bridge when we get to it. ”
“ Are you scared that maybe I’ll cheat on you
again if you hire a housekeeper?.” She stops
taking the food out and looks at me.
“ I wasn’t before but now I’m not sure. I’d
rather we hire a cleaning company. ” I don’t
blame her though. I created this whole mess.
“ I understand. ” she takes the plates and dishes
for us. We sit down and eat.
“ so our son had wanted to talk to you about
something. ”
“ which one? ”
“ Mel. ”
“ was something wrong? ”
“ not exactly. ” she says avoiding my eyes.
“ Baby I know I was a selfish prick to you but
please don’t tell me something bad happens to
my son and you didn’t tell me?. ”
“ No it’s nothing bad. He wanted to ask if it’s
okay he takes his friend out in a date. ”
“ friend date? ”
“ Yes. His friend is celebrating her birthday
today and he’s on his date now. ”
“ Her? Hmmm. If we’re both here then who’s
watching them? ”
“ I was going to take them but then I asked luh.
I was going to tell you when I arrived at the
office but you were not there. ”
“ I’m sorry I ruined the surprise. I asked the
security guys to eat the food and put the
containers in the kitchen when they are done so
luh can get her Tupperware back. ” she nods.
“ I can’t believe my son is out on his first date.
What’s her name and who are her parents.” She
laughs.
“ It’s just an ice cream date. Her name is Becky
Davis. ”
“ Umlungu baby? ( a white girl baby?) ” she
laughs out loud. I watch her and smile.
“ yes baby she’s white. ”
“ my son likes white girls. Wow. ” she chuckles.
“ have you guys had the talk about the birds and
the bees? ”
“ last time I tried he said ‘ dad we learn about
these things at school. Don’t make this awkward
‘ he said ” we both laugh.
“ Well then daddy you still have to have the talk
with him. ”
“ I know baby and I’ll do it. ” I kiss her hand. “
I’m sorry I cheated on you and hurt you. You
don’t deserve that kind of behaviour from me. I
won’t ever cheat on you again. ”
“ I’ll hold you to that. ” she means it.
“ did you mean it when you said you get even?.
” she looks at me and smiles.
“ I did my husband. Do you want us to have an
open relationship? ” my brows furrow. Damn
she meant it.
“ hell no!. Do you? ” if she says yes I’m going
to have a heart attack.
“ no I don’t. I want to say something though. ” I
stop eating and look at her.
“ I don’t want us have tthreesomes with sbu or
anyone else ever again. I want our marriage to
be just about us only and not include other
people in our sex life. Are you okay with that? ”
“ I wanted to suggest that to you too. We won’t
have threesome with anyone ever again. It was
my first time and last. Every first time that we
will have I want it to be between us only. ”
“ Thank you for that. So you won’t miss it? ”
“ Hell no and how do you miss something that
you’re not used to? ” she giggles.
“ I hear you. We can sometimes use toys. We
can go to a sex shop and do some shopping. ”
she blushes.
“ I hit the jackpot when I married your ass. I’m
one blessed and lucky guy. ”
“ You better not forget cause if you mess up
again someone else will come and sweep all this
good good away from you. ” she winks at me. I
chuckle and shake my head.
“ so when are we going sex shopping? ” she
laughs.
“ calm down Zulu boy. You’re still in the dog
house. ”
“ I had to ask baby. Am I still going to sleep on
the couch? ”
“ For months love. Just because I forgive you it
doesn’t mean that everything is going to go back
the way it was cause it’s not. Every time you’re
home late I’m going to wonder if you’re still
working or not. Business trips I’m going to
wonder if you’re going alone or with something.
When I call and you’re busy working and don’t
pick up and going to ask myself what if you’re
doing it again. It’s not going to be easy. Some
days are going to be okay and some are not. ”
fuck me!.
“ I understand baby. I’ll prove it you simphiwe.”
She nods.
“ We have to go to mbuso's house so we can
find out how was the search. ”
“ I hope they have some good news and if not.
It’s going to hurt him and we all have to be
there for them. Then talk to him and tell him
you should all go and talk to your mother. No
screaming or making threats. Just talk baby. ”
“ you’re a wise woman and I’ll do as you say.
” she giggles.
“ are you going to tell them? ” she heaven a
sigh.
“ I will baby when I’m ready. I know mbuso
won’t tell luh before I do. ” I nod.
“ when you tell them luh is going to leave get
mad and upset with me and that is going to
upset mbuso and she most likely will kick me
out of her house until she forgives me then scelo
will probably punch me for usher his baby sister
and for hurting you cause you know he takes
you as his little sister too and don’t tell me about
dad. He’s going to be furious. Fuck me!. ”
“ no thank you. ” she laughs. “ you made your
bed now lie on it. ” I chuckle. We eat then we
leave tongues house. I’m just thankful for her
giving me another chance. I won’t mess it up.

LESEGO.

I wake up and leave scelo before he fucks me

back to sleep again. I go to the bathroom and
take a quick shower then head down stairs.
Kagiao and kamo are still sleeping good for me.
I have a little time to myself. I make myself
some tea then sit down and enjoy it but that is
ruined when I think about my sister wanting to
come and visit. Honestly I have no idea why
they would want to visit me. They always spend
the the holidays here and book in hotels so why
would my sister want to spend them here in my
house. Just thinking about it makes me real mad
cause after they way they treated me when they
got the letter asking for my hand in marriage
you would think that they are happy that I’m
finally out of their lives but no. They still want
to make my life hard as much as possible.
I didn’t know that sicelo was going to send a
letter to my family. I got a call from mapaseka
telling me that they got a letter and my dad was
mad as hell. He said no there will be no
negotiations happening in his house. I was
happy and sad at the same time. I didn’t know
what I was going to do but then I remembered
that my grandma parents are still alive and I had
to go home back Bethlehem. Sicelo insisted on
coming wit me but everyone ended up coming
luh and her family and sims and her family.
Thank God my house was furnished with the
help of these two women. We all drove down
and the next day luh and sims accompanied me
to my grandma parents house. Koko ( grandma)
was happy to see. Me. They all were. I.
Explained what was happening and an
emergency meeting took place that very same
day on Friday. My grand father called my dad to
come and my other uncles. I had to.
Explain how I left home cause what they knew
is I ran away with my kids to go and live with a
I don’t know. I explained to them what happens
and my grandfather was upset with my dad and
told him that the negotiations are going to
happen whether he likes it or not. I had to go
home to my parent’s house that same time to
prepare for tomorrow. Luh is truly and angel
and I think that’s why my grandfather was taken
with her. She left her two young kids and they
came to my parents house with me. Bonga and
mbuso brought kamo and kagiso cause they also
had to come. My mom Didn’t talk to me or
acknowledge me actually my whole family
didn’t. They were not happy at all that
tomorrow people were going to come and ask
for my hand in marriage. Luh and sims went
shopping and brought groceries to prepare for
tomorrow. My grandpa and uncles slaughtered
two sheep’s cause they were happy. For the first
time I can’t remember how many years I slept
inside my parents house. With them inside. Luh
sims and my sister we all slept in the same
room. We got drunk and it was so fun. I have
never seen my sister so free and joking with me.
She actually apologized for how she treated me
when during these whole years. It was nice to
see that different side of her.
The next day me and my girls woke up and we
started cooking and to My surprise they
managed to find one of the wedding planners
who did luh's wedding to come and decorate. I
don’t mean to brag but luh can cook. She told
me about her life story how she grew up and
how thuli taught her how to cook. It broke my
heart to hear what happened to her and sicelo
and their parents. I cried a lot and when sicelo
told me how he lost his memory and came back
in time to find his dad before he killed himself
was too much. I cried a lot and he comforts me.
I am happy that they all found each other but
what I’m happy about is God kept this man for
me to love and protect. Koko came with my
aunts and they took me to the room we slept in
and talked to me about sicelo and if I’m sure I
wanted to get married to sicelo and I said yes.
Sicelo dad came with his uncles mbuso’s and
mbuso was one of the delegates. My family kept
them waiting for almost 2 hours before they let
them in.
The day started fine and I thought every thing
was going great but deep down I knew that there
was something bad that was going to happen
and I was right. My parents still ignored me it
was like I didn’t exist and my day w meant
nothing to them and I didn’t care. I just wanted
everything bto go well so the negotiations can
begin butt boy was I wrong. Apparently my dad
phoned kagiso's dad and told him that the was a
family asking for my hand in marriage and on
top of that they want the kids too. He came with
his dad and they demanded that the kids come
with them. Sicelo dad lost it and mbuso took out
his gun called sbu and bonga they came and
closed the door and his dad talked to my father
in law to calm down. What I know now is that
mbuso’s word is final when he says jump you
ask how high. My dad and brother we’re
terrified of him and everyone who was in the
living room daw the guns. I got so freaked out
but luh told me to calm down. No one was
going to get hurt as long as my family listens.
Sicelo asked my family how much they wanted
and my dad asked for two hundred thousand.
We could hear everything that was happening in
the living m cause the bedroom we were in was
next to it.. I was mortified but my father in law
agreed to the price then my dad said excluding
the kids. I heard my dad tell them that if they
wanted the kids too then for each child they
asked for a quarter of a million. Both my kids
we worth half a million according to my family
and I was devastated to see how much my dad
loves money. My grandpa was shocked at his
son's behaviour. In addition they asked for
another three hundred the cause sicelo took me
without their permission. His dad agreed and
gave them three hundred cash then the rest was
transferred electronically by sicelo's dad his
uncles mbuso’s dad and mbuso. All the money
was transferred to my dad’s account.. He was
shocked cause I don’t think he has ever seen
that kind of money in his account. They didn’t
even ask me if I know the ngcobo family but I
didn’t care cause finally in2as going tonl3ave
this family and not look back.
Bless my grandfather cause he lit the sage for
me and talked to our ancestors and told them
everything and asked for them to protect me and
bless me. I was very emotional. Kagiso’s dad
didn’t even waste time cause as soon as they
gave him and his dad money they left. He didn’t
talk to his kids or even acknowledge them and I
could care less cause I know they have a dad
who lives them. Sicelo’s family ate then they
left with us. We left the same day and we all
went to Ladysmith at Sicelo’s grandparents
house and we had a huge celebration and he
surprised me also with an engagement ring and
that was the icing on the cake. I never thought in
a million years that I will find someone who
loves me for me and our kids.
I love this man so very much and I know he
loves me too. I will do everything I can to make
sure I keep my family protected from my
family. I know that my sister coming here isn’t
just a visit but they are planning something. I
have to talk to his aunt and she can maybe take
me to Ngwende so I can I find out what is the
real reason my family is coming here.
“ mama ” he says hugging me from behind. I
turn my head and give him a kiss.
“ papa. ” he smiles.
“ Why are you awake? ”
“ Running away from you and your crazy sex. ”
he laughs.
“ I must be doing a bad job them if you’re
running away from my sex ” I giggle.
“ No papa you’re great amazing but this pussy
needs some rest baby.”
“ is everything okay?. ”
“ No papa. You want my sister to come here all
for the holidays and I don’t want that. ”
“ I thought we talked about this mama?. ”
“ no papa you fucked me into agreeing that she
can come. ”
“ let them come baby even if it’s your whole
family. I want them to know how happy you are
mama. ”
“ if they try anything papa I swear. I’m going to
kick them out. ”
“ you don’t have a mean bone in your body and
you’re not going to do that. You will show them
that you’re better than them and treat them good
plus sims will be here and she will sort them
out. ” I giggle he’s right. Sims hates it when
other people take advantage of someone close to
her.
“ yeah she’ll sort them out. I have to go though
”
“ it’s Saturday’s mama where are you going? ”
“ Luh and I have an appointment somewhere.”
“ so early mama? ”
“ Yes so early. You have the kids all to yourself.
”
“ ok can I get a quickie then? ” he says pressing
his hard dick on me.
“ papa what are you doing? ” he takes a step a
little and we look at kamo and she has this weird
look on her face.
“ I’m just talking to mommy princess. It’s still
early why are you awake? ”
“ I’m hungry. Can we go out daddy? ”
“Just the two of us?. ”
“ We can’t leave kagiso’s papa but he sleeps a
lot. I want to go play with the twins. ”
“ Ok baby. Go brush your teeth mom will come
and help ”
“ Thanks papa. ”
“ Princess? ”
“ daddy? ”
“ Where’s mama's kiss? ” she ggiggles then she
comes and kisses me and runs upstairs.
“ the kids are growing and dad wants more
grandkids ” he says and I laugh.
“ Yeah right. You want us to go and practice
making babies? ” I push my bass back to him
and he presses his hard dick.
“ five minutes mama. Kamo is waiting. ”
“ ok let me go check hat she’s doing now. ” I
run and leave him there.
“ Ah lesego? Mama? You’re going to scream so
hard when I fuck you!. ” I laugh and continue to
run to kamo's room. Five minutes is never
enough with scelo. It’s impossible.

CHAPTER 62.

MBUSO.
All our lives have changed ever since we
found out about the secretes our mother
kept from us. Yeah I still call her mom
cause she’s the only mother I have ever
known even though it is hard sometimes
but to me she’s always going to be mom. I
miss her a lot right now especially watching
my kids grow up without a grandmother. I
know she would be spoiling them rotten and
drive me crazy doing that. I brush my face
and look out side.
Dad has changed and sometimes I wouldn’t
recognize the man I call my dad. This whole
thing hit him pretty hard and even though it
has been years since it happened to us
though it still feels like yesterday cause we
live with it every day and thank God for my
wife cause she managed to drag me out of
this hell hole I was dragging myself into
cause it almost made me go back to the
cold and heartless person I was. Then I
remember that I have a wife and kids who
love me very much and I couldn’t hurt them.
I couldn’t be the person I swore I was never
going to go back to before I met her.
Sbu is really the best friend and brother I’m
always going to be grateful to have in my
life. He has been with us since we started
the search for my mother and brother. He
used his resources I used mine bonga
sicelo even my father in law all helped us to
find the answers and it has been hard but
then when we finally managed to find the
family my Father’s wife grew up in. We
found that all relatives have died during the
course of the years. That was my paternal
mother’s side of the family and we never
got to know them. I was so heartbroken I
felt killing sebenzile for robbing us of that.
Our search then led us to oPhongolo where
my mother grew up. Her maternal side of
the family and that is where we are at right
now. The guys sbu found have us a
address that we should go to. I’m nervous
as fuck cause I don’t know what or who we
are going to find. The last time I was this
kind of nervous was when I was getting
married to luh. I have promised her dream
wedding after she gave birth and when I
asked her about it the year later she said
she doesn’t want another wedding. When
it’s our ten year anniversary then that’s
where she plan her other wedding and was
I to argue with her.
Bonga really screwed up with what he did. I
told him to stay away from that girl but he
wouldn’t listen to me and now he’s about to
lose his marriage because he couldn’t talk
to his wife and put his dick in his pants. But
bonga has always beenbthe one not to talk
to much. It takes him along time to finally
talk and tell you what it’s really bothering
him and I just wish he was able to talk to
me like before. I know he is scared and
thinks that maybe I’m going to change
towards him but he’s wrong cause he is my
brother. I love him will always be there for
him and protect him in every way which is
what I have to do now. Protect both my
brothers from our mother and that bitch he
cheated on Sims with. Luh is going to flip
when she finds out not from me though
cause I know Sims is going to tell her.
Bonga didn’t realise that cheating on Sims
isn’t just going to affect him but it’s going to
affect all of us because our wives are going
to begin to wonder if we are also cheating
on them too and hiding it. He messed up
big time.
“ are you ready son? ” my dad asks walking
in my bedroom in the hotel we’re staying in.
“ I’m nervous dad. I don’t know what is
going to happen when we get there and it’s
driving me insane. ”
“ I know you hate not being in control of
your life right now but everything is going to
be fine. ”
“ When qwabe? For two years we have
been searching for answers but we have
always reached a dead end. If the person
we find a lead on is not dead then it’s the
wrong family or person and I’m tired dad.
I’m tired. ”
“ I know son. I’m also tired. Look we will go
there and ask some questions then if we
find something useful we take it and dig
some more. We can’t give up now mbuso. ”
I brush my face. I need luh. I need my
family right now.
“ Your dad is right brother. We can’t give up
now but I can see this is also taking a toll
emotionally on you both so maybe if we
don’t find what we are all hoping for today
then we stop looking take a break regroup
then find other ways we can get the
answers we’re looking for. ” sbu says.
“ Okay let’s go. ” we leave the hotel and
sbu' s guy drives us to where the
information led him and his investigator. On
our way we see this very huge river and it
makes me wonder if that is where my
mother and brother were supposedly killed.
We all lock eyes as we pass the river
wondering the same thing. Is this the river?.
The guy continues to drive and we pass the
lands of many families until he stops on the
side of the road. When I look ahead I see a
few houses a few metres away.
“ Boss you see that brown looking house?
That’s where you must go. Someone is
expecting you. ” he says to us.
“ Thanks Jimmy. ”
We step outside the car and walk towards
the house. Every step I take my legs feel
heavy and my heart also feels like it is
going to stop beating at any minute.
“ I’ll do the talking boys. ”
“ Yes dad. ” he nods. We walk then stop
outside the gate. “ Nqonqo? ( knock
knock?) ” my dad humbly shouts outside
the gate.
“ Ngena. ( come on in.) ” someone shouts.
It’s a woman’s voice. Dad opens the gate
and we walk in and he again knocks on the
door. “ ningangena nihlale phansi. ( you can
come in and sit down.) ” she says. We get
and there’s a bench next to the cupboard
and a chair. Dad takes the chair and we sit
on the bench. There’s no one in the kitchen
but someone is around the house cause we
can hear shuffling happening in the
bedroom cause there’s a door in the kitchen
leading to it.
We are looking at each other waiting for the
woman to come in. We hear shuffling of
steps then she comes out walking slowly.
She’s very old and you can see her bones
are no longer able to support her body.
Being the good boys we are me and sbu
quickly get up and help to sit in the chair
dad pulled out or her.
“ oh ngiyabonga zizukulu zamia. ( thank
you my grandkids. ) ” she sits down then
looks at us. “ Khanyisa isbani lapha
mzukulu ngizonibona kahe. ( switch on the
lights so I can see you properly.) ” she
points in the wall close to the kitchen door. I
get up and switch in the light then sit down.
“ Who are you my son. Where do you come
from? ” she asks my dad.
“ Sawubona mama. Mina ngingumfo
kaGumede uQwabe ngiqhamuka le e
Maritzburg. Ngihamba namadodana wami
lawa amabili umbuso no sibusiso. Sihamba
siyafuna lana manje umkhondo usikhombe
la ekhaya. ( greetings ma'am. My surname
is Qwabe Gumede I come from
Pietermaritzburg and I am here with my
sons. We are looking for some information
about a family and it led us here.) ”
“ I hear you my son. There is a woman who
came and asked questions about the family
that used to live here and she wanted to
know if I can be of help. I asked her if she’s
asking for herself or for someone else then
she explained that she’s an investigator and
was hired. I told her to tell the people who
want the information to come here
themselves and here you are. ”
“ yes ma that’s why we are here. Can you
tell us everything you know about the
Zikalala family? ” she smiles and looks at
me.
“ The Zikalala family was a very well known
family. Everyone here in the village knew
them because of their kindness and of
course they were very well of family. They
had a granddaughter that lived here. She
lived with her grandmother and uncles after
her parents died in an accident. It really
broke them but they raised the
granddaughter they had until she grew up
into a very beautiful girl. I remember she
used to be in a relationship with this tall well
built guy like you gumede. She got
pregnant hid the pregnancy from them
cause she wasn’t allowed to date and the
family found out about the pregnancy when
she was close to giving birth. Her
grandmother was really upset with
her because the boy that got her pregnant
was very far away. They knew that he is
from Maritzburg but they didn’t know where
in there exactly. They started to prepare for
her child cause she was soon going to go
into labour then the day she went into the
hospital a tragic thing happened. Their
house was burned down and they lost
everything. Luckily her grandmother wasn’t
in the house when it caught fire. We worked
the whole night until the fire died. Just when
we were done we saw a woman who came
in running and screaming telling us that
khanyo was in the forest carrying a child
with her crying hysterically. She explained
that they heard a woman screaming in the
river and when they got there she was in
the river struggling to swim. She saw them
then threw the baby to them. ” tears fall
down my face as I hear this old woman
telling us what happened to my mother.
“ the woman’s husband got in the river in
time to catch the baby and he then threw
the baby to his wife to save the child’s
mother and by God’s grace he managed to
drag her out but a then huge waves of
water came and hit them and they hit their
heads on rocks. She hit her head pretty
hard. We then all ran to the forest and when
we got there she was lying down the
husband was trying to stop the bleeding in
her head and his and the baby was crying
so hard it would’ve broke your heart. To this
day I still ask myself how did that new born
baby survive in that river?.” She wipes her
tears and continues.
“ we took her to the hospital and the doctors
were shocked that she was back because
she had just given birth to twins boys but
there was only one baby. Nokukhanya kept
crying and crying and they had to sedate
her and check if the baby was ok and he
was okay. They kept them at the hospital
for three days and her uncles went back to
the river to look for the other boy but they
never found him. Even the white police
came and they never found the other twin
boy. It broke all of us but for khanyo it was
worse because she lost her memory. The
doctors explained that someone hit her
head hard and then again when she hit the
rocks then trauma became too much. They
said she might gain her memories back or
she never might cause maybe her mind
was protecting her from a traumatic
moment that happened when she was hit.
Her family had thought that maybe her
children’s father was the one who hit her
and stole one of the kids but then they also
knew it was impossible because he was far
away when my daughter explained that to
them that it wasn’t a boy from here in the
village but far away. Then they suspected
that someone was out to get their family.
Khanyo and the baby were released from
the hospital then she stayed in the house
for a few days then after a few days we
woke up and the whole family was gone.
They sold their land and cows and only took
the cars. They were gone and to this day I
don’t know where they are or where they
went to. ” my god this is too much. I can’t
believe she lied and said my mother slipped
and fell when in actually she hit her then
pushed her and my brother to river. I wipe
my tears.
“ I guess you are the man that got her
pregnant and he’s the other twin cause he
does look like her. ” she says looking at me.
“ I am mama and yes he’s the other twin. ”
she nods.
“ Did you steal him or send someone to
take a child away from their mother? ” I can
hear hurt and disappointment in her voice.
“ No mama. Her twin sister is the one that
pushed the into the river and stole the other
twin. ” she looks at him shocked.
“ Khanyo had a twin sister and no one
knew? ” she claps her hands. Sebenzile
gave luh my mother’s name when we got
married. I don’t know if I should be happy
that she did that or strangle her to death
because she did that out of guilt.
“ no one knew mama. When we found out
we have been searching for two years until
our search led us here. ” my dad says and
you can see that he is exhausted he’s tired
and hurt. Don’t ever want to experience
this kind of betrayal from anyone I love.
“ you should not stop looking for them don’t
give up and maybe they are all still alive
and looking for you too. You’ve come far so
don’t give up now. ” we all nod.
“ Where is her twin sister now? ”
“ she’s dead. ” dad says and I get cold
chills. That never happens to me.
“ Ey I’m so sorry to hear that she’s no more.
”
“ us too mama. Thank you for all your help
mama and we’ll do as you said. We won’t
give up now. ”
“ who do you live with gogo? ” she soflty
laughs.
“ I live with my grand daughter. She went to
town to buy some pills in the chemist.
These bones are no longer strong. ” she
smiles.
“ Do you know what is the new of my
brother? ” I ask her. Her brows furrow and
she seems to think.
“ Oh yes I remember now. His name is
Busani. ” my dad chokes a sob. We look at
him and he wipes his tears. “ it’s okay to cry
my son. You will find your other son too.
Did you two talk about the names of the
kids you will have? ”
“… …. . We did. We said if they are twins
we would name them busani and mbuso. ”
she pats my dad’s hand.
Sbu and I look at each other. We have a
name now and we can start digging. He
takes out his phone and presses it. He
stands up and goes to the door but he
collides with someone. She yelps and
almost falls but he catches her and they
both stare at each other for what seems like
an eternity. I cough hard then sbu quickly
pulls back. She looks down and I look at
sbu who’s still watching her. I know that
look. Yeah another one bites the dust.
“ oh ntombi usubuyile? ( oh you’re back?) ”
the granny asks.
“ Yebo gogo. Sanibonani ( yes granny.
Good afternoon.) ” she says coming in and
putting the plastics down. Sbu comes back
too and sits watching her. He’s going to get
us kicked out of here. We greet her back.
“ can I make you something to eat and
drink? ” she asks still looking down.
“ haw sbani? You don’t ask visitors if you
can make them something to eat. You give
them food and something to drink. ” she
reprimands her.
“ eh gogo it’s okay. We were about to leave
anyway. ” I say and sbu gives me a death
stare. I almost laugh cause I wanted to see
this exact reaction.
“ nonsense. Sbani will cook chicken and
pap for you now. Let’s go sit outside and let
her cook us something so you can eat
before you go back home. ” we nod I take
gogo’s hand and dad takes out the chairs.
“ uhm I’ll bring the bench. ” sbu says
staying behind.
“ help her make us something to drink in the
meantime. ” she says to sbu then shakes
her head. We walk to the tree then sit her
down the chair. “ this will give is sometime
to talk. ” she says.
“ were listening mama. ” my dad says.
“ When you find your son you will have to
pay the damages to her family for her and
both your kids. Then you will do a
ceremony for him and introduce him to your
ancestors like how you did to umbuso.
Then when you introduce him you will
introduce both of them to your ancestors
cause they are one person. The reason
why his marriage is facing so much
problems with people coming after his wife
is because his ancestors are trying to make
him aware that something is wrong. Mbuso
you have bought a third house now and not
once have you had a ceremony to welcome
all your ancestors in your homes. How will
they be able to protect you and your family
mbuso?. You have to do that cause if
you’re not careful something bad will
happen to you cause there’s something
that keeps following you and it is
dangerous.” what the hell?!.
“ kumele uhlal’ uphahle mbuso ukhulume
nabakini ngoba uyazi zinto nonke
enizenzayo. Ngeke nihlale ngokugeza
kuphela umaniceda lomsebenzi wenu. ”
“ Ngiyezwa gogo. ( I hear you
grandmother.) ”
“ whatever decision you take gumede
regarding your wife is going to be harder
than what you’re going through now. You
have to be strong and think of your family. ”
dad nods. Sbu is still in the house and
sbani's grandmother keeps looking at the
door.
“ uhm let me go check what is keeping sbu
inside. ”
“ Leave them there. They are talking. ” I
nod.
“ Your wife’s ancestors are watching over
you mbuso your wife is a special woman.
She’s highly favoured. She somehow
reminds me of your birth mother….” she
says the keeps quiet. “…..her mother loves
you too and she’s happy with how you love
her daughter. She loves the twins too. Who
is pregnant in the family? ” what?
“ someone is pregnant? ” she laughs.
“ oh don’t mind this silly old woman
sometimes things just come out of my
mouth. ” is luh pregnant? A smile creeps
out of my face.
“ your little brother the one that chooses not
to be close with the family needs to be
brought closer cause things are not going
well for him. He needs his brothers and
especially his dad. Bring him home. Your
other brother’s marriage is also not going
okay. Your ancestors are not happy with
the fighting that is going on. Oh good finally
here they come out. ” she laughs. Dad and I
are still in shock with everything she has
just said to us now.

We ate a delicious chicken and pap. I had

forgotten how a slaughter chicken tastes
like. We ate then drank some juice and sbu
continued to embarrass himself cause he
looked like a love struck teenager. Man I
can’t wait to tell the guys. We thanked her
for the things she told us about my mother
then we left her a little something to help
them with food and what they would need.
She thanked us then asked to talk to sbu.
We left him and walked into the car silently.
No one was talking cause we had a lot to
think about. He came after thirty minutes
then we left to Durban. I sent bonga and
sicelo an sms that we should meet
tomorrow cause we are tired.

think about. He came after thirty minutes
then we left to Durban. I sent bonga and
sicelo an sms that we should meet
tomorrow cause we are tired.
We arrive at 11:30 pm dad asks me to drop
him off at bonga’s place and sbu comes
with me. Everyone in my house is sleeping
as we drive in and park the car. “ you know
the room you sleep in. Well talk tomorrow
man. ” we bro hug and he goes to the other
direction where he sleeps when he’s too
tired or drunk to go to his house and I go to
the other one. I go to one of the other guest
bedrooms and quickly shower cause I don’t
want to wake luh wear the same clothes
then go to see my kids who are sleeping
peacefully and kiss their chubby cheeks
kamo is sleeping in the other bed cause
she wants to sleep where the twins sleep.
We had to bring a bed in here for her. I hear
shuffling in the other bedroom and I go to it
and open the door and switch the lights on.
The boys look at the door shocked and I
can see panic in their faces when they see
it’s me. I get in then close the door and walk
towards them.
“ why aren’t you sleeping cause it’s late? ” I
ask all of them but I’m looking at melusi
since he’s the oldest.
“ baba we were just talking that’s all. ” his
voice is shaking.
“ what are you hiding melusi? ”
“ Nothing baba I swear. ” I pull his duvet off
then see his phone screen on. I take it then
see he is chatting with some girl.
“ Who’s Becky? ” he looks down.
“ his white girlfriend Papa. ” says kagiso.
What?
“ Tell Becky good night cause it’s late. ”
“ But baba it’s the weekend. ” melusi says.
“ and I say sleep cause tomorrow is Sunday
and you have to prepare for school on
Monday. Tell her good night or I’ll take that
phone melusi!.” he sighs.
“ Ok. ” he types something then a message
pings back. He switches his phone off and
the others go to their beds.
“ good night boys ”
“ good night baba. Good night papa. ” I turn
and walk.
“ Baba? ” I look at melusi.
“ are you mad at us me? ” I go to him and
sit on his bunk bed.
“ No boy I’m not mad at all of you. I’m just
tired and I missed all of you. That’s all. ” he
smiles.
“ Is everything okay? ” boy I’d you knew.
“ yeah it is boy. Are you okay? ” he looks
like he wants to talk but decides against it.
I’ll have to talk to luh cause both of them
are very close.
“ I am baba. Good night then. ” I fist bump
with all of them.
“ Good night boys. ” I switch of the lights
and close the door. I wait a few minutes
and think about when he asked me if
everything is okay?. Melusi is a smart child
and he might have an idea what is going
on. The more they grow the harder it is
going to be to hide some of the things from
them. Everything is not okay boy at all.
I walk down the corridor to our bedroom
and open the door. I can feel her perfume in
our bedroom. I fucken missed her. A whole
week not being near her was very hard. I
lock the door take off my clothes then get in
bed with her. I remove the duvet and see
she’s wearing my T-shirt. She’s sleeping on
her stomach so give her sweet gentle
kisses from her toes to up her legs and
backside. She moans as I pull her
underwear down her legs and out.
“ You’re back. ” I can hear a smile on her
face.
“ I am baby.” I move my body down so my
face can be in front of her ass. I move her
left leg to side then open her ass cheeks
and see her pink plum juicy pussy. I move
closer then bury my face in her and eat
what is damn mine. Damn I missed this.

She moans and presses her ass back on

my face and push mine in. She tastes so
damn good like strawberries and cream. My
tongue goes in and out of her pussy that is
wet for me and begging me to tongue fuck
her. I grab her ass cheeks and separate
them apart and continue to feast myself on
her tasty nectar. She keeps moaning and
moving her ass up and down. I can feel her
squeezing her thighs and ass and I know
she wants to come but not yet. I stop and
get up.
“ Get on all fours baby.” She lifts her body
up and I can see her legs shaking a
little. She tries to take off my t shirt. “ no
leave it on baby. ” She lays her face flat on
her pillow and grabs it tight the separates
her legs for me. Her pussy looks beautiful
pink glistening with her juices. I bend down
and swipe her tasty juices with my tongue
and moan. “ you taste so fucken good baby.
” I grab then need and smack her ass and it
jiggles I smile to myself. I eat her from that
position and lose myself.

“ mbuso…. . ” she drags the I then her legs

shake again and I stop and get up. I grab
my T-shirt fist it around my hand and get a
tight grip. I pull it up a little and I see her
body rising up good.

“ Is it too tight love? ” she shakes her head

no. “ make sure you that beautiful body and
face of yours stay down and flat on that
pillow okay? ” I massage her pussy with my
left hand.

“ ok. ” she moans.

“ If I her too hard for you tell me okay love. ”

her body goes soft yes just the way I want.

“ I will ” she says barely above a whisper.

I push her body more down making her

back arch beautiful.

“ You’re more beautiful now than when I

first met you cause this beautiful body gave
birth to my beautiful kids. ” I put my fingers
her in her tight warm pussy and she moans.
My dick is so hard it is begging me to feel
her warm pussy. I slowly finger fuck her and
watch her breathing and it picks up and
goes up as I add pressure and add
pressure. I add another finger and they
become three and she moans loudly. Her
skin gets covered in goose bumps and
drops of sweats form on her back. She bits
her lips and her pussy clams my fingers
inside. I know she near and she’s going to
go mad if I deny her another orgasm. My
dick disagrees too cause pre-cum is leaking
out. I press my thumb on her hard nub in
circles side ways and my fingers inside too
keep pumping in and out then her legs
shake and she screams and I feel her
pussy muscles grip my fingers. I grip the T-
shirt quickly pull my fingers out then point
my dick on her entrance and thrust deep
and hard inside her. Gripping that T-shirt
hard and pulling it towards me and groan.
Fuck!!!!!
She comes and milks my dick and I fuck
her through her orgasm. I fuck that tight
pussy with my other hand gripping her waist
tight. I don’t give her time to breathe cause I
fuck the shit out of that pussy. I can’t help it
cause it is so damn warm and fucken tight.
“ what did you put in this pussy luh? ” I ask
her thrusting deeper and she moans.

“ ah! … Uh! . …. Oh fuck baby! … ” she

says struggling to talk.

“ What. Did. You. Do. To. My. Pussy!. ”

each word I say I thrust deep and her body
begins to shake again. I pull out and she
almost cries.y dick is crying.
“ I know baby don’t come. Not yet. ” she
bites her lips. Fuck me!.

“ Mbuso please! … .. ” she begs me. I get

off the bed taking her with me.

“ sit on the edge of the bed baby. ” she

does the she begins to. Touch her breasts
that are now full and heavy. She looks at
me and she fucken wants to fuck her. I
kneel down on the edge of the bed between
her legs and pull her closer to me. My
dick touches her entrance and my baby
moves her waist. I watch her as her hands
move from her breasts to her pussy. She
plays with her clit the whole time watching
moaning. This is the sexiest shit I have ever
seen. She leaves her clit and pits her
middle finger inside her pussy and moans.
I bend down and muff her pussy mimicking
her movement. She moans and calls my
name. I look at her and her eyes are closed
and she keeps opening her mouth licking it
and biting her lips. My God I’m going to
come on her legs if I don’t her in that pussy.
I stop and her eyes shoot open. I take her
finger out and lick all of that sweet juice
coating her finger. I wipe it clean then take
my dick in my hand and I wince. I’m not
going to last fuck!.

I slowly thrust and the head goes in. I take

a deep breath. I feel her wanting to move
but I grip her waist and pin it down. “ don’t
move baby. ” my face is getting sweaty
fuck!. I push my whole dick inside her tight
sheath and we both moan. I pull out a little
the thrust back in again. I continue to do
that watching her breath taking face as I
make love to her. I fucken love this woman.
No one completes like she does. I pull her
close to me and she wraps her legs around
my waist and arms around my neck. Our
eyes lock then she smiles.

“ I love you baby. ” she smiles.

“ I love you too baby. ” I get up with her

then get on the bed and crawl with her to
the middle of the bed. I gently lay her
down.

“ hello. ” she giggles. I can drown in her

eyes just watching her.

“ hiiiiiiiii” she says “ hmmmm… . ”

“ don’t move okay and don’t close your

eyes. Look at me. ” she tries to answer but I
don’t let her cause I claim her mouth and
thrust in her at the same time. I bind our
hands together and I slowly make love to
her. We make love to each other. It’s just us
and no one else.

CHAPTER 63
CHAPTER 63.

MBUSO.

Waking up in the arms of my wife again after

sleeping without her for an entire week is the
best thing ever. I fucked her back to sleep again
this morning after a really hot steaming session.
I woke up with my dick in her mouth and fuck
me she sucked me good. I thought she was
going to wake up tired but I was wrong cause
my baby missed me as much as I did. I love how
free she is now with her sexuality and she’s no
longer that shy girl who knew nothing when it
comes to sex. She’s a freak in the bedroom now
and I love every moment of it. Fuck I’m crazy
about it.
I can hear a thud on the door someone is outside
the gym and is trying to get in and I have an
idea who it is or who they are. I guess they have
woken up. I was watching the news on the
treadmill catching up on my exercise. I turn the
speed down run until it stops. Get off take the
towel and wipe my face and chest. I walk to the
door and slowly open it and see yep both of
them standing on the door knocking if that is
what they were doing. I chuckle. I can’t believe
I made these little people. They have their
moms hair and skin colour and eyes. Everything
else is me. No one can deny that these kids are
mine. I crouch down to their level and pull them
to my arms.
“ daddy! ” they both say. I give them kisses on
the cheeks and they share fits of cute giggles.
That’s like the most amazing sound a parent can
hear. Having your kids laughing and smiling.
Being happy.
“ Hey boys what are two doing here and
where’s mommy? ” they shake their heads. Ok I
guess they don’t know.
“ Did you miss daddy? ”
“ yes. ” sbonelo says.
“ I missed you too boys where’s aunty ? ”
“ there… . ” he points somewhere around the
house.
“ ok let’s go and eat daddy is hungry are you
two hungry? ”
“ Yes!. ” they say excited and clap their hands
but sboniso lays his head on my shoulder and
yawns. I turn and look at the clock and it’s 7:30
am.
“ Sbonelo you have to stop waking your brother
look at him he’s still sleepy!. ” he frowns
making a cute face and I laugh. “ ok come on
daddy will make you something to eat. ” they
both wrap their little hands around my neck.
Babies give the best hugs. My gym is far from
where they sleep and the kitchen. I wonder how
they got here but maybe they remember the way
cause I usually take them with me when I go
there. I’m glad that the whole house is child
proofed or else I would be very worried but no I
still am cause how did the nannies not see or
hear them leaving their room. Their mother is
still sleeping and speaking of which I change
direction and go to our bedroom.
I open the door and the water is running in the
shower. I grin cause maybe I might just get
another one problem is the boys. We leave my
bedroom and we walk down the corridorto the
boys bedroom. I open the door and of course
they are awake. Sbonelo wants me to put him
down as soon as he sees his cousins. I do and he
runs to them excited.
“ morning boys. ”
“ Morning papa morning baba. ” they all say.
“ can you watch over the boys for a few minutes
I’ll be right back ”
“ We’ll watch them baba. ” I nod. I try to put
sboniso down but he holds on to me tight. Damn
champ you’re killing my vibe here!.
“ you don’t want to play with Mel? ” he shakes
his head. Melusi comes to us and tries to take
him but my son won’t have non of that cause he
cries.
“ Ok ok come with daddy then. Boys brush your
teeth since your already awake then go down
stairs for breakfast and please no running.
Melusi go check on kamo cause I don’t know if
she’s still sleeping or awake. ”
“ Ok baba. ”
“Sbonelo come. ” he shakes his head and goes
to melusi.
“ you don’t want to brush your teeth with
daddy? ” he smiles and shows me his teeth and
we laugh. Then he comes to me and takes my
hand.
“ make your beds teeth then breakfast. ” I walk
out with the twins and go to our bedroom. I can
forget about the quickie I thought I was going to
get with their mom. We open the door and she’s
coming out totally naked.
“ Do you think they’ll notice if we do a quickie?
” I’m just pulling her leg. She laughs. I put the
kids on the bed and sboniso let’s go.
“ they will and I don’t want to scar my kids.
Close your mouth and where’s your T-shirt?. ”
she asks me. The only thing I’m focusing on is
that beautiful body of hers.
“ but baby I’m hard? ” she laughs. I face away
from the kids and grab my dick showing it to
her.
“ uh-huh I’m sore mbuso Watch the kids while I
dress up. ” I chuckle
“ Ok love. I’ll watch them ” she goes to the
closet and I lay down in the bed and the twins
lay on my chest too. “ man you guys are killing
my vibe.” I tickle them and they laugh.
“ Daddy loves you very much. You’re the best
thing that has ever happened in my life. You
two and your mom are my world. I just need to
find your uncle who hopefully looks like your
daddy and you two. Do you think daddy will
find his brother? ”
“ yes!. ” they say excited. I hope they are right. I
really need to find him and know that he’s okay.
“are you okay? ” she asks sitting next to me.
“ I have my family right here with me love why
wouldn’t I need okay? ” she cocks her head to
the side. I told her everything that happens last
night when we were laying in each other’s arms
but leaving out some parts. “ I need to find him
luh. Something tells me that he’s alive but I’m
scared cause I don’t know if he’s okay is he well
off too even though I know our mom’s side of
the family was well of but after they sold
everything and left anything could have
happened to them ”
“ it is possible but we have to be hopeful that
they are still alive even your mother too baby. I
know you don’t want to get your hopes up and I
understand. I’m right here for you baby. ”
“ thanks my love. I’m going to shower. Will you
wait or I’ll find you in the kitchen?. ”
“ I think these little guys are hungry and my
baby here is looking sleepy. Sbonelo did you
wake your brother again?. ” my son shakes his
head. “ if you wake your brother again sbonelo
I’m going to spank you!. ”
“ mommy no. ” he says and looks at me.
“ uh huh don’t look at me. Say sorry mommy? ”
“ sorry mama ” he says. I get leave them there
chuckling. Luh shakes her head.
“ let’s go my little ones ” I hear her say.
Before I went to the gym when I left luh
sleeping I went to my office and started
searching for my brother Busani on the net and
hacked many government departments for any
information about my brother. There’s no death
certificate birth certificate or marriage
certificate. I used his name and our surname
clan names. Our mother’s surname and even her
clan names but there’s no person who was born
the same year month and date I was. It was like
I was searching for a person who doesn’t exist. I
was so frustrated and I went to the gym to take
out my frustrations.
As I’m showering I remember something. Damn
why didn’t I think of it in the morning or the last
year?. I quickly finish wear my clothes then take
my phone and scroll through the many numbers
I have. I can’t find it. Fuck!. I run out of our
bedroom and straight to my office and almost
collide with sbu.
“ Hey slow down. What’s wrong?. ”
“ come ” we get to my office and I sit down and
open my laptop.
“ Man what is going on? ”
“ give me a few minutes. ” I go to my phone
records type the year and month then wait. After
a few minutes the number the dates pop up with
numbers and I see the number that I want. “ I
found the number. ”
“ What number?. ”
“ you remember after the message I told you
guys about after we left Port Elizabeth?. The
guy thanking me for saving his niece?. ”
“ Yeah I remember but what about it? ”
“ He said should I need anything I must contact
him. This morning I was in this office and I
searched for busani all over sbu. I hacked every
government department and agencies I know
have people’s files but I found nothing.”
“ So you think they might be able to help us? ”
“ maybe. I don’t know man but it’s worth a try.
”
“ call him then… . ” the door opens. Sicelo and
bonga come in followed by dad and they are all
carrying plates of food.
“ who are we calling? ” I hug dad bro hug scelo
and me and bonga share a very tight brotherly
hug. He knows what I’m feeling and I also
know what he’s feeling.
“ You okay? ” I ask him and he shakes his head.
“ my life is a mess right now. You? ”
“ I’ve been better bro. ” we hug again then sit
down. “ Where’s our food? ” I ask them. This is
my house and they get served before me? That’s
crazy.
“ Dad got served first angithi umuzi wakhe lona.
( dad got served first cause it is his house.) ”
bonga says.
“ Fool shut up. ” we laugh. The door opens
again and my little kids walk in carrying plates
of food followed by their mom and aunt sims.
We laugh. They look so adorable. They are
helping them carry the plates. Luh and sboniso
walk to me and give me my plate.
“ thank you boy ” I take my plate then take him
and throw him in the air and he screams
laughing. Luh and sims leave us and the kids
stay behind.
“ who are we calling? ” scelo asks and I explain.
“ you think they have the resources we don’t
have? ” he asks.
“ Yeah I do. ”
“ Call him and hear what he says.. ” dad says
eating his food. He lost so much weight and I’m
really worried about him. I think that he needs
to see his wife and have a talk with her cause
avoiding and ignoring her is not good for his
health.
“ Baba?. ” he looks up and I think he knows
what I’m going to say cause he shakes his head.
“ let it go mbuso. Just call him and hear what he
says.” and that’s the end of that.
Bonga and I share a look and he also tells me to
let it go and I do for now. I take my phone and
tap the numbers then put it on my ear. It goes
through and it rings. Rings rings and rings.
“ Gumede! Qwabe. I’ve been waiting for this
call for years and I almost thought it was never
going to happen but I was wrong. To what do I
owe this pleasure. ” he says. Cocky son of a
bitch. He laughs. “ yeah I won’t take that
personal cause my mom is a bitch.” He says
chuckling. I said that loud.
“ Mthanti. ” he keeps quiet then chuckles.
“ I knew you would find out who I am.” He
says.
“ I found out about you the next day you sent
that SMS. How’s your niece doing? ”
“ She graduated. She’s doing good although it
took her some time.” He says..
“ I understand. I’m glad she’s doing good. ”
sboniso can’t sit still. Scelo takes him from me
and he doesn’t mind.
“ You helped her. So I guess this is not a
friendly call. You’re here to collect if I may put
it that way. ” he says.
“ not exactly but I need a little help with finding
someone cause I’m hitting dead ends. Me and
my brothers are not getting anywhere with the
search. ” I explain.
“ it sounds like the person doesn’t want to be
found if you the greatest hacker and I.T guru
can’t find him. Who is it? ”
“ We need to meet so I can tell you. ”
“ Sounds serious. ”
“ it is cause if it wasn’t I wouldn’t have
contacted you. ”
“ I get you. We can’t talk about these things on
the phone anyway. When do you want to meet?
”
“ As soon as possible. ”
“ come to Pretoria to my house. ”
“ We’ll be there tonight.”
“ am I going to meet the whole family? ” he
asks. He’s curious
“ maybe. Just expect people. ”
“ I’ll send you my address. ”
“ thanks for hearing me out. ”
“ later man. ” he says then hang up.
I look at them and they are all finished eating.
My food is cold and I’m hungry. I know where
his house it at and everything about him cause I
did do an investigation about him like he did
with me. He’s a very private person like us even
though his family is very well known but he’s
not in the spotlight cause he likes to be behind
the scenes. That’s the people I fuck with.
“ who wants to go to Pretoria with me? ” I look
at the guys.
“ I’m going to see your mother. Sbu send me the
location. ” dad gets up kisses the twins then
looks at me. “ tell me how it goes. You? ” he
points at bonga. “ better fix this mess you
created. Your little brother needs both of you.
Mbuso come back with zipho. ” he leaves us. It
gets quiet for a while after dad leaves.
“ I’m worried about him. ” bonga says.
“ He needs to see mom. I think he’ll come back
better. I hope he does. ”
“ It’s been two years. He can’t avoid her forever
or else he’s going to lose it and do some
dangerous. ” scelo says.
“ But where do you even to forgive the mother
of your children the woman you love for doing
something like this.?. ” he says shaking his
head.
“ I cheated on sims. ” scelo and sbu look at him
shocked. Scelo looks at him then laughs. Oh
fuck no! Did he had to tell them now?.
“ You did what?.” He laughs then stops. He gets
up and I get up too and take sboniso from him. I
open the door.
“ gugu? ” I shout the name of one of the
nannies. She comes in running followed by
another.
“ sir? ” they both look terrified cause I have
never said their names. I give them the kids then
close the door.
“ you fucken cheated on sims?!. Why bonga
explain this to me!. How do you fucken cheat on
your wife?! ” he screams at his face.
“ did we not promise each other that we are
never and I mean never ever going to cheat on
our wives bonga? ” sbu says.
“ I got weak and I broke her heart. I’m sorry… .
” scelo lands a hard punch on bonga's face and I
feel something breaking then sbu lands another
one on his right cheek and I hear his nose
breaking and he bleeds. I want to punch him too
but I won’t. He’s already getting what he
deserves. He takes it like a man he is.
I just hope this doesn’t break his marriage but
come hell or high water that won’t happen on
my account. I’ll make sure that my brother has
the family that he loves and deserves and that’s
his wife and kids. No one will come between
them even if he’s the one that went outside their
marriage. I know he regrets it and I’m sure he’s
never going to do it again. He will do his best to
keep his family together.
“ I’m not going. Sims isn’t feeling well she
hardly slept last night. ” I frown could she be
the one who’s pregnant?
“ what’s wrong with her? ” I ask him
“ I don’t know. We’re seeing a doctor
tomorrow. ” he says.
“ I can’t believe you cheated on her. It’s the
stress that’s making her sick. You better fix it
bonga cause I’m not going live in a house where
my wife would think that maybe I’ll cheat on
her too. Fuck you man!. ” he’s really pissed.
“ you already knew that he was cheating didn’t
you? ” sbu asks me.
“ I punched him too on his nuts when I found
out. ” I lie. They don’t need to know that.
“ I can’t leave too. I have an important meeting
tomorrow with the mayor. I don’t know what he
wants but they said it’s urgent.” I hope that
meeting has nothing to do with bonga and that
bitch.
“ I’ll come with you bro. ” sbu says. He’s got
my back always. I know he will never let me go
to meet someone alone we both don’t know.
“ can you and lesego watch the twins? I want to
take luh with me but I don’t know if she’ll agree
to leave them behind. ” scelo smiles.
“ it’s about time those little ones spent time with
their uncle. You can take as long as you want. ”
we laugh and the whole tension dissolves.
“ I’m sorry guys. I know I messed up and I’ll fix
it. ”
“ Bonga we are all here for you man. If you
can’t talk to your wife you come to one of us
and talk. You don’t go around and fuck women
man. That’s fucked up. What is this brotherhood
about if we keep secrets from each other and
hurt our wives? ” he’s got a point there.
“ I’m not married yet. ” sbu says and we laugh.
“ not for long ” I say and the guys look at me.
“ did you meet someone we don’t know about?
” scelo asks. Sbu just laughs.
“ I don’t know what he’s talking about. ”
I think my brother here has met the woman he’s
meant to be with. Question is how will he deal
with everything regarding his situation and will
she agree? But I think she will with sa
grandmother like that. She might already know
what sbu is which is something only his close
friends know. Meaning me bonga and scelo.
The people. Who work for him and his family
obviously. If he loves her the way I think he
does then he will do his best to keep her.
“ Yeah right. Look at that look on your face.
You met someone you like fool. ” bonga says
“ Fool go wash that face before the kids see you
and freak out. ”
“ you broke my nose sbu!. ”
“ You deserve it. ” he says.
“ Go to the bathroom there are clothes there. ”
he curses and leaves.
“ Can we trust that guy though?. ” scelo asks.
“ Right now. We have nothing to lose. ”
“ what happened there?. ”
I explain what happened excluding what the old
lady said about someone’s pregnant sbus's
business what my mother in law said and what I
have to do to appease the ancestors. These are
the things that I have to do with my brothers and
dad for my ancestors to protect me and my
family. I didn’t tell luh too cause I don’t want
her to stress and be worried. She has come along
way since the kidnapping and I don’t want her
to feel scared and all.
The thing that keeps bugging me though is that
cop from Standerton. He has been hot on our
trails then he suddenly just vanishes or is he?. I
don’t like that he is silent. They are up to
something I know they are. I need to talk to
victor about following that Paul guy so we can
know what are they planning at. I’ll talk to Alex
too in Newcastle maybe he knows something.
“ Ok. Let’s go and get something to eat.. This
food is cold. ” we wait for bonga then we all go
down stairs. The women are not there and the
twins. The boys and princess kamo are watching
TV.
“ sis nonto where are our wives? ”
“ they are some where around the house air. ”
“ Ok. Can you make us some breakfast. ”
“ what would you like to eat sir? ”
“ Anything nonto. ” she laughs. She’s one loyal
trustworthy worker. She’s more than our
housekeeper she’s like an older sister who
knows her boundaries. I look at nonto and
something about her reminds me if my mother
my dad’s wife. She’s still my mother though.
“ did you send the location to dad? ”
“ I did. ” sbu says. I nod.
“I’ll be back. ”
I go to my office again and sit down. I take my
phone take a deep breath then wait as it rings.
“….. .. Hey boy. ” my mom says and I feel my
eyes getting misty.
“ Are you okay? ” she takes a deep breath.
“ I’m not. I miss my family my grandkids. I
miss all of you… . ” she sniffs.
“ we miss you too. I just wanted to hear your
voice. ”
“ thank you for sending me their pictures and
videos. I just wish that I can see them though. ”
I sigh.
I’m not ready for that and I don’t know if I’ll
ever be.
“ dad is coming. ”
“ He is?. ” she sounds scared.
“ yes ma he is. Thank you for giving luh my
mother’s name. ” she chokes out a sob.
“ I’m sorry mbuso… ”
“ we’ll talk later. Bye. ” I hand up and sigh.
“ don’t feel guilty. You still love her and it’s
okay. ” luh says watching me from the door. I
didn’t even hear her coming.
“ Go pack out clothes we are going to Pretoria. ”
she frowns.
“ With the kids? ”
“ no. You me and sbu. Lesego and scelo will
watch the twins. ”
“ yeah sims is not feeling okay. She told us what
happened.”
“ I’m sorry.”
She looks at me like she wants to say something
but then doesn’t.
“ I’ll ask lesego if it’s okay. The nannies will
leave with them too. She already has her hands
full. ”
“ or they can stay here if they want. Ask her and
your brother. ”
“ I will. ” she says. “ Mbuso? ”
“ Yes love. ” if you ever cheat on me I’ll kill
your mistress then frame you. Take my kids and
make sure scelo takes us away where
you’ll never find us. ”
“ I know love. ” we look at each other smile
then laugh. She shakes her head.
“ I’m serious mbuso. ”
“ I know you are and you sound so sexy saying
that. ” she shakes her head.
“ I’m going pack. ” she leaves.
I know she’s not kidding cause with the help of
her brother and dad. She might do that. But that
will never happen cause I love her too much.
CHAPTER 64
CHAPTER 64.
MBUSO
#NotEdited
I keep looking at my wife and she’s a little
fidgety. She hasn’t left the kids since they were
born and now she keeps checking her phone a
thousand times like lesego will call her at any
minute and tell her something is wrong with the
twins. They are all staying at our house cause
lesego sims and luh agreed that it’s better if the
kids sleeping their room cause they might not
sleep if we take them to their house without us
there. Luh packed light cause she said as soon as
we get the information we want we have to
come back. We have just landed in
Wonderboom airport in Pretoria with sub’s
family jet. It’s late cause it’s dark outside.
It feels good to be back again in Joburg. I know
I come for business relates stuff but man it feels
great to be back here cause Pretoria is nothing
like Joburg. Percy takes our bags we get in the
car and drive out. Luh takes her phone again and
checks.
“ The kids are fine love. Stop stressing. ” I take
her hand and kiss her cheek. Sbu looks at us
amused.
“ I can’t wait to have what you guys have. Solid
loyal and faithful. The love you both have for
each other is one of a kind. ” luh hides her head
on my neck blushing.
“ I think you have already met your soulmate
brother. ” I tell him and he smirks.
“ yeah I think so too. I’m going to go and see
her. I don’t know when though. ” he says.
“ the way mbuso described how you two first
saw each other is amazing and looking at you
know tells me that there’s something you feel
for her so don’t keep her waiting because there
might be someone out there who’s already
gotten his eye her. ” luh says
“ you’re stressing me luh” sbu says and I laugh.
“ She’s right and you know. Did you at least get
her numbers? ”
“ I did but her phone is always on voicemail. ”
“ Really sbu? A whole….uhm. Look what if
her phone fell and she lost your numbers?. I
don’t think you’re serious about her cause if you
we’re you would have bought her a new a phone
sent one of your man to her place to give to find
out what is wrong and give her the phone. ” we
look at each other with sbu.
“ you know luh you’re the only woman I would
ever allow to talk to me like that or any how
because you know that you should have been
married to me right? ” luh rolls her eyes sbu
looks at me and laughs.
“ you’re such a fool man. Are you ever going to
stop crushing on my wife?. ” I chuckle.
“ never. She’s our wife. ” we laugh.
I trust sbu with my life and I know he’ll never
do anything to come between me and luh. I
know he has a crush in luh but I know he would
never cross that line and he’s saying all of that
cause he wants me to get out of my head. I’m
thinking too much about meeting this guy cause
I don’t know if he will be able to help me or not.
“ Thanks man. ”
“ Always got your back. ” we fist bump. Luh
looks at us confused. I pull her to me and kiss
her lips.
“ please don’t make me a third wheel ” we
laugh.
Percy drives for another 10 minutes then we go
to this neighbourhood stop outside the gate and
the security lets us in without asking any
questions and if they did. We would feel
disrespected. Percy drives through and he parks
the car.
“ I hope he will be able to help us. ” luh says.
“ Me too love. Come. ” I open the door get out
and take her hand as she steps out. I love a
house that is surrounded by tress and the whole
yard is shining bright with lights.
I thought he would at least have the decency to
meet us outside but hey every man does things
his own way at his house. We walk to the front
of the door and hit the bell. We wait a few
minutes then the door opens and we see this
woman wearing a maids uniform.
“ please come in. ” she says. We come in and
she closes the door behind us. “ please follow
me. ” we walk in and she leads us to the lounge.
“ Sir will be here in a moment but can I get you
anything to drink? ” her eyes move from Percy
to me and sbu and you can see lust on her face.
Great another thirsty female. But then she looks
down quickly when she sees that I’m looking at
her and she does something to her body. Fuck!.
I look at sbu and he’s looking at me like what
the fuck!. We both saw it.
“ we are good thanks. ” sbu says and she looks
disappointed.
“ uhm please sit down. Sir will be with you
shortly. ” she quickly leaves
“ Ohk let’s sit then. ” luh says.
“ No. ” sbu and I say at the same time.
“ why not?. ”
“ We’d rather stand baby. ” we walk around the
lounge and there are pictures of him and his
family.
“ love I had a long day and I’m tired. Can Percy
take me to the hotel? ” luh says. “ and I want to
call lesego and see how the kids are doing. ”
I pull her to me and wrap my arms around her
and she hugs me tight.
“ You worry too much. Your brother and sister
in law have all the help they can need in the
house. Stop worrying. I miss the boys too and I
didn’t think I would leave again after I just got
back. As soon as we finish here then well go
home and spend time with our kids okay?.”
“ okay but I’m still tired. You can stay and
Percy can take me to the hotel. ” she says and
she looks tired.
“ I’m sorry to hear to keep you waiting. There
was a situation that needed my attention quick.
A voice says and we turn. He looks just like
how I saw his pictures. “ oh I…my…..You
came with your queen. I’m sorry Mrs
gumede to keep you waiting. I am Mbyuyiselo
Mthanti.”
“ I am nokukhanya Gumede. Nice to meet you
Mr Mthanti. ” my wife says and I smile. I don’t
know why she chose to tell him that name but
I’m happy she did.
“ nice to finally meet the beautiful Mrs gumede.
Pictures don’t do you justice cause wow. You
really are beautiful and your name suits you. ”
luh gives him and a little smile. The mother
fucker says smiling. Shocked and rooted where
he’s standing. His eyes are all over my wife
checking her out. I would be pissed if it was
someone else but I’m just enjoying how he’s
looking at my wife knowing very well that he
won’t have her or touch her.
“ Gumede nice to finally meet you. ” he says
when he’s had his feel with my wife.
“ And of course your best friend mbatha. I don’t
know if I’m allowed to say that. ” they shake
hands too. The three of us share looks and he
understands cause he nods.
“ you know a lot for a man who’s in mining.
This is one of my guys Percy. ” I say. They also
shake hands
“ sure Percy. like you man I have to know about
the people who helped you. Thank you again for
what you did. ” we nod. “ I don’t think I’m
allowed to touch you Mrs gumede cause your
husband might just kill me.” He’s right
and glad to know that he knew not to touch
another man’s wife.
“ can we talk before we leave to the hotel my
wife is tired. ”
“ I thought you were going to be sleeping here
in my house since your my guests and insists
cause I invited you. Mrs gumede I think you’re
hungry too and you don’t want to get in the car
and go look for a hotel. My house keeper has
prepared a wonderful dinner that you will enjoy.
Let’s go get something to eat before we talk. ” I
look at luh.
“ do you want to sleep here? ”
“ I don’t know mbuso. Are we safe? ” I don’t
blame her for saying that.
“ you’re with me baby you’re with us. Nothing
bad will happen cause if I knew I wouldn’t have
brought you here. ”
“ Okay then. ” I kiss her forehead.
“ do you want to eat first or go to the bedroom
so you call lesego? ”
“ I want to call her. ”
“ ok love. Can your housekeeper show us the
bedroom? ”
“ Nandi!. ” he shouts loud enough.
The same woman comes in with her head bowed
down. Oh fuck I don’t know how luh is going to
take this.
“ show Mr gumede and his wife to the bedroom
they will be sleeping in. ”
“ yes sir. ” she says. Luh looks at her weirdly.
“ Percy please bring our bags.”
“ This way sir. ” she points upstairs and I take
luh's hand and we step on the stairs. She’s
following behind like how she is suppose to.
Luh looks behind her and she sees her following
us from behind.
“ how are we going to know which room it is
when you’re behind us?. ”
“ I’m sorry ma’am.” Luh frowns.
“ love tell the housekeeper that she shouldn’t
walk behind us. ” fuck!.
“ You can walk in front and show us the
bedroom. ”
“ Thank you sir. ” she says then walks and we
follow her. She stops then opens the door and
stands outside. “ here’s your bedroom sir
ma’am. ”
“ thank you. ” luh says and the girl nods and
leaves. Percy comes in and gives us our bags
then leaves. “ What’s going on with that girl.
She’s acting weird. ”
“ I don’t know baby. Maybe she feels uneasy
around strangers. ”
“ Ok. You can go and joint them cause I might
take a while ok the phone. ”
“ Ok love. ” I kiss her lips then leave. As soon
as I close the door I breath out like I was
holding my breath.
I go down stairs and they are sitting ok the table
drinking. I expected that. Mthanti looks at me.
“ Is the Mrs ok? ”
“ she is. Your home is lovely. ”
“ I try man. ” I sit and watch him study him. “
are you done reading me?. ” I sits back.
“ no. I don’t meet people like you everyday. ” I
say.
“ You can say that again. You should have told
us. ” sbu says.
“ Told you what? ”
“ Not to bring my wife with me cause I don’t
want her to think that I brought her here for that
reason. ”
“ oh ” he says.
“ Yes. ”
“ what are you guys talking about? ” Percy asks
and I just shake my head cause obviously he’s
clueless.
“ Will she have a problem with it?. ”
“ I don’t know but I have to tell her. ” Thai
mother fucker has out me in an awkward
situation.
“ I can explain to her. ”
“ you wont and you’ll stop checking her out
cause you’re making her feel uncomfortable. ”
he raises his hands up.
“ My bad. I just couldn’t help myself. It’s hard
to pretend that there’s not a gorgeous queen
standing in front of me. That’s all it was and it
won’t happen again. I don’t want her to unlike
me okay ” what?
“ fool what did you just say? ” he looks at me
then laughs. These two fools join him and laugh
and I end up laughing too. “ mother fucker. ”
We continue to talk and I release that
Mbyuyiselo is a nice guy. He reminds me of all
of us and he can fit with us. I realise that the
time keeps going and luh is not coming down.
“ I’m hungry bro what is keeping luh? ” sbu
asks.
“ She might still be on the phone. I’ll go check
on her. ” I leave them and go up to the bedroom.
I open the door and she’s in bed sleeping but I
see her chest moving fast. I close the door and
quickly go to her.
“ Love? What’s wrong?. Why are you crying.” I
pull her to my chest and brush her back. She
keeps sniffing. “ baby talk to me. If you don’t
want us to sleep here then we won’t. We don’t
have to stay just tell me and we’ll leave. ” she
keeps crying until she stops.
“ you know it’s my first time being away from
them and I didn’t think it was going to be this
head. I… . When I face timed lesego the boys
we’re crying and so I sked to see the boys they
cried mbuso when they saw me and I… . ” oh
my baby.
“ Kids are like that baby. You remember they
would cry when I face timed you. It’s the first
time they’ll be going to bed without you and me
putting them to bed and so they are going to cry.
Lesego is a mom and she has done this before
she will get the twins to calm down sleep. ”
“ I know and she said the same thing too. She
said I shouldn’t feel bad just because I’m here
with you and not with them but it’s my first
night sleeping so far away from them. ”
“ they have to get used to it baby. ”
“ Lesego said the same thing. She’s the best. ” I
smile.
“ she’s right love. Ever since you had the boys
you’ve been a cry baby love. ” she giggles that’s
what I wanted to hear.
“ I’m not a cry baby. I was feeling sad and
missing my kids. ”
“ I miss them too. I hope Mthanti will help us
and I won’t be away from you guys again. ”
“ Do what you have to do to find your brother.
I’ve got everything else handled at home. ”
“ you’re an amazing wife and great mother. I hit
the jackpot with you baby. ” she laughs.
“ I feel better now. Is it okay if I don’t join all of
you for dinner and eat here? ”
“ we’ll both have dinner here then cause I won’t
let you eat alone while I’m in the same house as
you. ”
“ that would be rude to our host. Let me change
then we’ll go join them.
Luh changed and we went down stairs to join
the other’s for dinner. The food was nice but it
didn’t come close to luh’s cooking. After we sat
an talked and seeing Mbyuyiselo talking made
me realise that he is a very private person and
for him to invite us to his house means that he
trusts us. We retired to bed cause luh fell asleep
and plus we also decided that we will talk in the
morning.
I give her a kiss after I have showered and go
downstairs. I find the guys already having
breakfast and two more girls other than the maid
from yesterday.
“ Morning. ” I mumble then sit down next to
sbu and he’s looking at me very weird. They
greet back.
“ Where’s luh? ” I frown at him.
“ she’s coming. She’s on the phone with sims. ”
“ What’s wrong with her? ”
“ she’s feeling sick. ” I smirk at him. He’s the
one frowning now.
“ Hmmm. ” that’s all he says and I shake my
head.
“ how did you sleep last night? ” Mbuyiselo
asks but he’s looking behind me. I turn and see
my beautiful woman. Luh is really the most
beautiful woman I have ever seen. Sometimes I
just watch her sleep and think to myself how did
I her so lucky to be loved y her.
She gracefully comes down wearing this skin
tight nude dress that clings her upper body and
flows from her waist down and the material of
the dress is way too thin I could literally rip it
with my hands. Why haven’t I seen this fucken
dress before?. Sbu looks at me and chuckles
cause he sees the way I’m looking at that dress.
I don’t know if I should it like it doesn’t bother
me or take her upstairs and fuck her wearing
that dress and tear it apart while I’m fucking her
from behind. Fuck!. We stand up me and the
guys. She comes takes a seat that sbu was
occupying then we sit down.
“ good morning. I slept really well thanks and
you? ” she says giving mbuyiselo a polite smile.
“ I did too. Thank you for asking. ” he says
beaming at her. I shake my head. She looks at
me and smiles. She plates for me then for
herself. The maid comes and she panics when
she sees luh plating for us.
“ I’m sorry miss I was going to come and plate
for you. ” she says standing next to luh looking
down.
“ It’s okay nandi. You don’t have to do that. I
can plate for us. ” luh says warmly. Nandi nods.
“ That her husband nandi. She’s Mrs gumede.
She’s not a miss.” Nandi falls down to her knees
next to mbuyiselo.
“ it’s okay. She didn’t know and we didn’t
introduce ourselves to her yesterday so it’s
unfair to think she would know.”
“ stand up nandi and apologize to Mrs gumede
then leave. ” she looks at luh and she almost
looks apologetic.
“ I’m sorry Mrs gumede please forgive my
mistake.” Sbu scoffs.
“ you’re forgiven nandi. ” luh smiles and nandi
leaves. Ok.
We eat silently and there’s this tension in the
room and I have no idea what it’s about.
“ it’s nice to see you again Mr gumede. ” says
this other girl. Luh and I look up and I frown.
“ do I know you? ” the other one laughs.
“ oh sorry where are my manners. This is my
niece lumka ” he points at the girl who talked. “
and that is her friend uh what’s your name
again? ” he points at the one who just laughed.
“ Dineo ” she says looking at me. I look at luh
then sbu and shakes his head. “ You don’t
remember us don’t you? ”
“ Are you talking to me? ” I ask her. She
flinches.
“uhm yes. It’s me in of the girls you rescued at
P. E from that Ngqakula man who kidnapped us
and you came to rescue us. ” I feel luh tense up
when she mentions that man’s name. fuck it’s
that little girl who had a silly crush on me.
“ Oh. ” I say then continue to eat.
“ We didn’t recognize you. You two are friends
now? ”
“ oh yes I found her on Facebook and we started
talking then boom we’ve been friends ever
since. ” I don’t like this.
“ Are we going to have problems here? ” I ask
mbuyiselo. He’s also looking at that girl
suspiciously.
“ I’m on it. ” he says. Good.
“ So I understand why you didn’t recognize me
” she laughs “ I have grown up since then but I
didn’t forget the man that saved me. ” she sighs.
This is not good. We don’t need reminders of
what happened that day.
“ this omelette is good. Did nandi cook it? ” she
asks mbuyiselo.
“ She did. She’s a good cook ”
“ But I’ve had better. Luh is a great cook. ” sbu
says.
“ Then maybe I’ll have an honour of tasting
your food before you leave. ” she smiles.
“ sbu is just pulling your leg. This is really
good. ”
“ please Mrs gumede can you please cook us
dinner even lunch. I’m tired of eating nandi’s
food and my mom’s. ” hell no.
“ My wife is not here to cook for anybody. She
won’t be cooking. ” she puts her hand on top of
mine.
“ don’t forget the reason why we are here. I
don’t mind cooking and maybe nandi too can
have a day off and love it’s the least we can do.
I would love to cook dinner for you guys to say
thank you to mbuyiselo. ”
“ thank you mrs gumede. ” his niece says.
“ thank you luh. ” I give him a death stare and
he smirks. We continue to eat and I can feel this
girls eyes on me and about to snap her neck
wh3n luh suddenly looks at her.
“ I knew I recognized you from somewhere.”
“ What? Where? ” I ask her.
“ she’s the girl obsessed with your pictures on
my Instagram page. She once asked me when
are you having your own page then says nasty
stuff. ”
“ And you didn’t tell me that? ”
“ Tell you what? that some little girl is obsessed
with you?. I would have had I known she’s one
of the ones you rescued. Women are obsessed
with you love and I don’t care cause you’re
mine only. ” she says smiling. I give her a full
mouth kiss.
“ And I’m obsessed with you only. ” she laughs.
“ so aren’t you going to say anything about me
liking your pictures?.” I give her my most
intimidating look and I see her pulling back.
“ oh my God Dineo shut up!. ” his niece says.
“ Lumka take your friend upstairs now!. ”
mbuyiselo says.
They get up and leave. Luh sighs.
“ are you okay? ” I ask her.
“ hearing the name of that man again just
brought back unpleasant memories. It’s like my
past keeps following me and I… ”
“ Bay he’s dead!. He won’t hurt you ever again
or anyone. ”
“ but she’s here mbuso and she remembers you.
What if she one day blabs it out to someone?.
She found his niece on Facebook so they can be
just friends why?. Why would she want to be in
contact with people who will remind her of that
traumatic time she went through?. She also
managed to find me on Instagram. I should have
made my account private but I didn’t know
that…... ” this is what I didn’t want. Bringing
her here was supposed to be relaxing for her not
stress her out. I pull her to me.
“ nothing will happen to you baby I promise. ”
“ you met her only once mbuso but she didn’t
forget you. Sbu was also there but she didn’t try
to find him. What does she want with you. Why
didn’t she forget you?. What if something
happens to you?.” She hugs me tight.
“ luh I promise you that nothing will happen to
him okay. The both of you. We made sure that
everything is taken care of. ” sbu says.
“ I also made sure that everything was taken
care of too and they did a great job so don’t
worry about my niece saying anything cause she
won’t but her friend looks like she’s going to be
a problem. ”
“ I don’t fucken need this right now!. ” I kiss her
forehead.
“ there’s a way we can deal with her. ” sbu says.
“ Don’t kill her sbu. ” mbuyiselo laughs.
“ is there anything you all are doing she doesn’t
know? ” mbuyiselo asks
“ No. ” sbu and I say at the same time. Luh
knows what she needs to know.
“ wow. You must really trust her then. ” he says
looking at me.
“ I do with everything I have. ” he nods and
looks at me with new found respect.
“ I won’t kill her but we can give her something
that will make her forget. ” sbu says.
“ something like what? ” mbuyiselo asks
“ that serum we have. The one we got from
jama. ” I remember it now.
“ that one exactly. ” sbu says
“ but it will erase all her memories mbuso. She
had a family and people who love her. You were
suppose to give it to all of them when you sent
them home so they wouldn’t remember your
names and faces. You have to find another way
to make her keep her mouth shut. ” luh says.
“ she’s right. I’ll deal with her. ” mbuyiselo
says. Nandi comes walking in slowly.
“ We’re you eavesdropping nandi? ” luh asks
her.
“ no Mrs gumede I heard nothing. ” nandi says.
“ I saw you nandi and if you dare tell anyone
what you heard us talking about?. Your Dom
will not only lose his submissive but I will kill
you myself of you ever disrespect me in front of
my husband again. I saw the way you looked at
them and how your body moved when you saw
two dominant alpha males. I know my husband
won’t touch even I single stray of your hair but
do what you did again and you’ll be sorry. ” we
all look at each other shocked. My wife is a bad
ass I’m so proud right now.
“ yes Mrs gumede. May I leave. ”
“ you may. ” she practically runs out of the
room with her body shaking.
“ how the hell did you figure that out. ” sbu
asks.
“ I saw the two of you giving each other looks
and how submissive her body went when she
saw you. I could feel mbuso's dominant side
coming out when her body got submissive. ”
fuck me.
“ love is that why you were crying when I found
you in bed? You thought I might do something?.
” I’m hurt she would think that.
“ I thought you brought me here cause you
knew that mbuyiselo is living the lifestyle you
used to live and you might be tempted so having
me here with you wouldn’t be so tempting. ”
“ what? I would never do that to you or to us.
We didn’t know and we found out the moment
she locked her eyes to us. That’s when we
realised that she’s a submissive. If I did know
love I would have asked for him to meet us
somewhere. I would never cheat on you baby
ever. I don’t miss my old life cause that time I
was messed up then I met you and fell in love
with you. I forgot what kind of life I was living
before I met you. My life with you is perfect
and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Nandi can
walk in here naked and I wouldn’t even care
cause I have everything I want and need right
here. Have you forgotten love? ”
“ what? ” she asks with her sweet soft voice.
“ That this dick only gets hard for you only ”
she blushes and covers her face on my chest
giggling.
“ Mbuso we’re not alone. ”
“ I don’t care. Have you forgotten though? ” she
shakes her head.
“ No never. ”
“ you have nothing to worry about then. ” she
nods. I lift her chin up and kiss the living day
light out of her and leave her breathless. These
two goons are watching us.
“ fuck me. Luh do you want another second
husband? ” share laughs.
“ No thank you. He’s all the man I need. ”
“ A woman after my own heart. I can’t believe
you two had this whole talk in front of us. ”
“ sorry about that. I forgot that you two existed
” we laugh.
“ I hope one day I’ll also have what you both
have cause that’s beautiful man. Mbuso you
have an amazing wife and luh I’m sorry I didn’t
give you the heads up about my lifestyle. Nandi
is not my submissive. She’s here cause she
pissed my brother off but she’s also not his
submissive. We saved her from her former
Dom’s who almost killed her. That’s why she’s
here. ” ok that explains a lot.
“ I understand and I m sorry it what I said came
across as if I’m judging how you’re living your
life cause I’m not. I was just for husband that’s
all. ”
“ I wouldn’t have let him even if he tried but we
all know he wouldn’t. Luh if you haven’t
noticed your husband doesn’t touch any other
female. Even a hand shake. That’s how he is. ”
“ Yeah I know. He’s got issues. ” we all laugh. “
but I love him the same. Even more now. ” I
peck her lips and she laughs.
“ stop cause you’re depressing us.” We laugh.
“ Now let’s talk about the real reason we are all
here but let’s go to my office. ” mbuyiselo says.
“ You guys go ahead. I have phone calls to
make. ”
“ Are you sure you’re okay? ”
“ I am baby. ” I kiss her forehead. “ Where
Percy? ” she asks
“ He went to see his girlfriend. ” sbu tells her.
During my time? This boy.
“ I’ll be in the bedroom them. ” she gets up and
leaves us and we watch her.
“ I’m going to burn that dress. ” they laugh at
me and I am serious.

#NotEdited
I keep looking at my wife and she’s a little
fidgety. She hasn’t left the kids since they were
born and now she keeps checking her phone a
thousand times like lesego will call her at any
minute and tell her something is wrong with the
twins. They are all staying at our house cause
lesego sims and luh agreed that it’s better if the
kids sleeping their room cause they might not
sleep if we take them to their house without us
there. Luh packed light cause she said as soon as
we get the information we want we have to
come back. We have just landed in
Wonderboom airport in Pretoria with sub’s
family jet. It’s late cause it’s dark outside.
It feels good to be back again in Joburg. I know
I come for business relates stuff but man it feels
great to be back here cause Pretoria is nothing
like Joburg. Percy takes our bags we get in the
car and drive out. Luh takes her phone again and
checks.
“ The kids are fine love. Stop stressing. ” I take
her hand and kiss her cheek. Sbu looks at us
amused.
“ I can’t wait to have what you guys have. Solid
loyal and faithful. The love you both have for
each other is one of a kind. ” luh hides her head
on my neck blushing.
“ I think you have already met your soulmate
brother. ” I tell him and he smirks.
“ yeah I think so too. I’m going to go and see
her. I don’t know when though. ” he says.
“ the way mbuso described how you two first
saw each other is amazing and looking at you
know tells me that there’s something you feel
for her so don’t keep her waiting because there
might be someone out there who’s already
gotten his eye her. ” luh says
“ you’re stressing me luh” sbu says and I laugh.
“ She’s right and you know. Did you at least get
her numbers? ”
“ I did but her phone is always on voicemail. ”
“ Really sbu? A whole….uhm. Look what if
her phone fell and she lost your numbers?. I
don’t think you’re serious about her cause if you
we’re you would have bought her a new a phone
sent one of your man to her place to give to find
out what is wrong and give her the phone. ” we
look at each other with sbu.
“ you know luh you’re the only woman I would
ever allow to talk to me like that or any how
because you know that you should have been
married to me right? ” luh rolls her eyes sbu
looks at me and laughs.
“ you’re such a fool man. Are you ever going to
stop crushing on my wife?. ” I chuckle.
“ never. She’s our wife. ” we laugh.
I trust sbu with my life and I know he’ll never
do anything to come between me and luh. I
know he has a crush in luh but I know he would
never cross that line and he’s saying all of that
cause he wants me to get out of my head. I’m
thinking too much about meeting this guy cause
I don’t know if he will be able to help me or not.
“ Thanks man. ”
“ Always got your back. ” we fist bump. Luh
looks at us confused. I pull her to me and kiss
her lips.
“ please don’t make me a third wheel ” we
laugh.
Percy drives for another 10 minutes then we go
to this neighbourhood stop outside the gate and
the security lets us in without asking any
questions and if they did. We would feel
disrespected. Percy drives through and he parks
the car.
“ I hope he will be able to help us. ” luh says.
“ Me too love. Come. ” I open the door get out
and take her hand as she steps out. I love a
house that is surrounded by tress and the whole
yard is shining bright with lights.
I thought he would at least have the decency to
meet us outside but hey every man does things
his own way at his house. We walk to the front
of the door and hit the bell. We wait a few
minutes then the door opens and we see this
woman wearing a maids uniform.
“ please come in. ” she says. We come in and
she closes the door behind us. “ please follow
me. ” we walk in and she leads us to the lounge.
“ Sir will be here in a moment but can I get you
anything to drink? ” her eyes move from Percy
to me and sbu and you can see lust on her face.
Great another thirsty female. But then she looks
down quickly when she sees that I’m looking at
her and she does something to her body. Fuck!.
I look at sbu and he’s looking at me like what
the fuck!. We both saw it.
“ we are good thanks. ” sbu says and she looks
disappointed.
“ uhm please sit down. Sir will be with you
shortly. ” she quickly leaves
“ Ohk let’s sit then. ” luh says.
“ No. ” sbu and I say at the same time.
“ why not?. ”
“ We’d rather stand baby. ” we walk around the
lounge and there are pictures of him and his
family.
“ love I had a long day and I’m tired. Can Percy
take me to the hotel? ” luh says. “ and I want to
call lesego and see how the kids are doing. ”
I pull her to me and wrap my arms around her
and she hugs me tight.
“ You worry too much. Your brother and sister
in law have all the help they can need in the
house. Stop worrying. I miss the boys too and I
didn’t think I would leave again after I just got
back. As soon as we finish here then well go
home and spend time with our kids okay?.”
“ okay but I’m still tired. You can stay and
Percy can take me to the hotel. ” she says and
she looks tired.
“ I’m sorry to hear to keep you waiting. There
was a situation that needed my attention quick.
A voice says and we turn. He looks just like
how I saw his pictures. “ oh I…my…..You
came with your queen. I’m sorry Mrs
gumede to keep you waiting. I am Mbyuyiselo
Mthanti.”
“ I am nokukhanya Gumede. Nice to meet you
Mr Mthanti. ” my wife says and I smile. I don’t
know why she chose to tell him that name but
I’m happy she did.
“ nice to finally meet the beautiful Mrs gumede.
Pictures don’t do you justice cause wow. You
really are beautiful and your name suits you. ”
luh gives him and a little smile. The mother
fucker says smiling. Shocked and rooted where
he’s standing. His eyes are all over my wife
checking her out. I would be pissed if it was
someone else but I’m just enjoying how he’s
looking at my wife knowing very well that he
won’t have her or touch her.
“ Gumede nice to finally meet you. ” he says
when he’s had his feel with my wife.
“ And of course your best friend mbatha. I don’t
know if I’m allowed to say that. ” they shake
hands too. The three of us share looks and he
understands cause he nods.
“ you know a lot for a man who’s in mining.
This is one of my guys Percy. ” I say. They also
shake hands
“ sure Percy. like you man I have to know about
the people who helped you. Thank you again for
what you did. ” we nod. “ I don’t think I’m
allowed to touch you Mrs gumede cause your
husband might just kill me.” He’s right
and glad to know that he knew not to touch
another man’s wife.
“ can we talk before we leave to the hotel my
wife is tired. ”
“ I thought you were going to be sleeping here
in my house since your my guests and insists
cause I invited you. Mrs gumede I think you’re
hungry too and you don’t want to get in the car
and go look for a hotel. My house keeper has
prepared a wonderful dinner that you will enjoy.
Let’s go get something to eat before we talk. ” I
look at luh.
“ do you want to sleep here? ”
“ I don’t know mbuso. Are we safe? ” I don’t
blame her for saying that.
“ you’re with me baby you’re with us. Nothing
bad will happen cause if I knew I wouldn’t have
brought you here. ”
“ Okay then. ” I kiss her forehead.
“ do you want to eat first or go to the bedroom
so you call lesego? ”
“ I want to call her. ”
“ ok love. Can your housekeeper show us the
bedroom? ”
“ Nandi!. ” he shouts loud enough.
The same woman comes in with her head bowed
down. Oh fuck I don’t know how luh is going to
take this.
“ show Mr gumede and his wife to the bedroom
they will be sleeping in. ”
“ yes sir. ” she says. Luh looks at her weirdly.
“ Percy please bring our bags.”
“ This way sir. ” she points upstairs and I take
luh's hand and we step on the stairs. She’s
following behind like how she is suppose to.
Luh looks behind her and she sees her following
us from behind.
“ how are we going to know which room it is
when you’re behind us?. ”
“ I’m sorry ma’am.” Luh frowns.
“ love tell the housekeeper that she shouldn’t
walk behind us. ” fuck!.
“ You can walk in front and show us the
bedroom. ”
“ Thank you sir. ” she says then walks and we
follow her. She stops then opens the door and
stands outside. “ here’s your bedroom sir
ma’am. ”
“ thank you. ” luh says and the girl nods and
leaves. Percy comes in and gives us our bags
then leaves. “ What’s going on with that girl.
She’s acting weird. ”

“ I don’t know baby. Maybe she feels uneasy

around strangers. ”
“ Ok. You can go and joint them cause I might
take a while ok the phone. ”
“ Ok love. ” I kiss her lips then leave. As soon
as I close the door I breath out like I was
holding my breath.
I go down stairs and they are sitting ok the table
drinking. I expected that. Mthanti looks at me.
“ Is the Mrs ok? ”
“ she is. Your home is lovely. ”
“ I try man. ” I sit and watch him study him. “
are you done reading me?. ” I sits back.
“ no. I don’t meet people like you everyday. ” I
say.
“ You can say that again. You should have told
us. ” sbu says.
“ Told you what? ”
“ Not to bring my wife with me cause I don’t
want her to think that I brought her here for that
reason. ”
“ oh ” he says.
“ Yes. ”
“ what are you guys talking about? ” Percy asks
and I just shake my head cause obviously he’s
clueless.
“ Will she have a problem with it?. ”
“ I don’t know but I have to tell her. ” Thai
mother fucker has out me in an awkward
situation.
“ I can explain to her. ”
“ you wont and you’ll stop checking her out
cause you’re making her feel uncomfortable. ”
he raises his hands up.
“ My bad. I just couldn’t help myself. It’s hard
to pretend that there’s not a gorgeous queen
standing in front of me. That’s all it was and it
won’t happen again. I don’t want her to unlike
me okay ” what?
“ fool what did you just say? ” he looks at me
then laughs. These two fools join him and laugh
and I end up laughing too. “ mother fucker. ”
We continue to talk and I release that
Mbyuyiselo is a nice guy. He reminds me of all
of us and he can fit with us. I realise that the
time keeps going and luh is not coming down.
“ I’m hungry bro what is keeping luh? ” sbu
asks.
“ She might still be on the phone. I’ll go check
on her. ” I leave them and go up to the bedroom.
I open the door and she’s in bed sleeping but I
see her chest moving fast. I close the door and
quickly go to her.
“ Love? What’s wrong?. Why are you crying.” I
pull her to my chest and brush her back. She
keeps sniffing. “ baby talk to me. If you don’t
want us to sleep here then we won’t. We don’t
have to stay just tell me and we’ll leave. ” she
keeps crying until she stops.
“ you know it’s my first time being away from
them and I didn’t think it was going to be this
head. I… . When I face timed lesego the boys
we’re crying and so I sked to see the boys they
cried mbuso when they saw me and I… . ” oh
my baby.
“ Kids are like that baby. You remember they
would cry when I face timed you. It’s the first
time they’ll be going to bed without you and me
putting them to bed and so they are going to cry.
Lesego is a mom and she has done this before
she will get the twins to calm down sleep. ”
“ I know and she said the same thing too. She
said I shouldn’t feel bad just because I’m here
with you and not with them but it’s my first
night sleeping so far away from them. ”
“ they have to get used to it baby. ”
“ Lesego said the same thing. She’s the best. ” I
smile.
“ she’s right love. Ever since you had the boys
you’ve been a cry baby love. ” she giggles that’s
what I wanted to hear.
“ I’m not a cry baby. I was feeling sad and
missing my kids. ”
“ I miss them too. I hope Mthanti will help us
and I won’t be away from you guys again. ”
“ Do what you have to do to find your brother.
I’ve got everything else handled at home. ”
“ you’re an amazing wife and great mother. I hit
the jackpot with you baby. ” she laughs.
“ I feel better now. Is it okay if I don’t join all of
you for dinner and eat here? ”
“ we’ll both have dinner here then cause I won’t
let you eat alone while I’m in the same house as
you. ”
“ that would be rude to our host. Let me change
then we’ll go join them.
Luh changed and we went down stairs to join
the other’s for dinner. The food was nice but it
didn’t come close to luh’s cooking. After we sat
an talked and seeing Mbyuyiselo talking made
me realise that he is a very private person and
for him to invite us to his house means that he
trusts us. We retired to bed cause luh fell asleep
and plus we also decided that we will talk in the
morning.
I give her a kiss after I have showered and go
downstairs. I find the guys already having
breakfast and two more girls other than the maid
from yesterday.
“ Morning. ” I mumble then sit down next to
sbu and he’s looking at me very weird. They
greet back.
“ Where’s luh? ” I frown at him.
“ she’s coming. She’s on the phone with sims. ”
“ What’s wrong with her? ”
“ she’s feeling sick. ” I smirk at him. He’s the
one frowning now.
“ Hmmm. ” that’s all he says and I shake my
head.
“ how did you sleep last night? ” Mbuyiselo
asks but he’s looking behind me. I turn and see
my beautiful woman. Luh is really the most
beautiful woman I have ever seen. Sometimes I
just watch her sleep and think to myself how did
I her so lucky to be loved y her.
She gracefully comes down wearing this skin
tight nude dress that clings her upper body and
flows from her waist down and the material of
the dress is way too thin I could literally rip it
with my hands. Why haven’t I seen this fucken
dress before?. Sbu looks at me and chuckles
cause he sees the way I’m looking at that dress.
I don’t know if I should it like it doesn’t bother
me or take her upstairs and fuck her wearing
that dress and tear it apart while I’m fucking her
from behind. Fuck!. We stand up me and the
guys. She comes takes a seat that sbu was
occupying then we sit down.
“ good morning. I slept really well thanks and
you? ” she says giving mbuyiselo a polite smile.
“ I did too. Thank you for asking. ” he says
beaming at her. I shake my head. She looks at
me and smiles. She plates for me then for
herself. The maid comes and she panics when
she sees luh plating for us.
“ I’m sorry miss I was going to come and plate
for you. ” she says standing next to luh looking
down.
“ It’s okay nandi. You don’t have to do that. I
can plate for us. ” luh says warmly. Nandi nods.
“ That her husband nandi. She’s Mrs gumede.
She’s not a miss.” Nandi falls down to her knees
next to mbuyiselo.
“ it’s okay. She didn’t know and we didn’t
introduce ourselves to her yesterday so it’s
unfair to think she would know.”
“ stand up nandi and apologize to Mrs gumede
then leave. ” she looks at luh and she almost
looks apologetic.
“ I’m sorry Mrs gumede please forgive my
mistake.” Sbu scoffs.
“ you’re forgiven nandi. ” luh smiles and nandi
leaves. Ok.
We eat silently and there’s this tension in the
room and I have no idea what it’s about.
“ it’s nice to see you again Mr gumede. ” says
this other girl. Luh and I look up and I frown.
“ do I know you? ” the other one laughs.
“ oh sorry where are my manners. This is my
niece lumka ” he points at the girl who talked. “
and that is her friend uh what’s your name
again? ” he points at the one who just laughed.
“ Dineo ” she says looking at me. I look at luh
then sbu and shakes his head. “ You don’t
remember us don’t you? ”
“ Are you talking to me? ” I ask her. She
flinches.
“uhm yes. It’s me in of the girls you rescued at
P. E from that Ngqakula man who kidnapped us
and you came to rescue us. ” I feel luh tense up
when she mentions that man’s name. fuck it’s
that little girl who had a silly crush on me.
“ Oh. ” I say then continue to eat.
“ We didn’t recognize you. You two are friends
now? ”
“ oh yes I found her on Facebook and we started
talking then boom we’ve been friends ever
since. ” I don’t like this.
“ Are we going to have problems here? ” I ask
mbuyiselo. He’s also looking at that girl
suspiciously.
“ I’m on it. ” he says. Good.
“ So I understand why you didn’t recognize me
” she laughs “ I have grown up since then but I
didn’t forget the man that saved me. ” she sighs.
This is not good. We don’t need reminders of
what happened that day.
“ this omelette is good. Did nandi cook it? ” she
asks mbuyiselo.
“ She did. She’s a good cook ”
“ But I’ve had better. Luh is a great cook. ” sbu
says.
“ Then maybe I’ll have an honour of tasting
your food before you leave. ” she smiles.
“ sbu is just pulling your leg. This is really
good. ”
“ please Mrs gumede can you please cook us
dinner even lunch. I’m tired of eating nandi’s
food and my mom’s. ” hell no.
“ My wife is not here to cook for anybody. She
won’t be cooking. ” she puts her hand on top of
mine.
“ don’t forget the reason why we are here. I
don’t mind cooking and maybe nandi too can
have a day off and love it’s the least we can do.
I would love to cook dinner for you guys to say
thank you to mbuyiselo. ”
“ thank you mrs gumede. ” his niece says.
“ thank you luh. ” I give him a death stare and
he smirks. We continue to eat and I can feel this
girls eyes on me and about to snap her neck
wh3n luh suddenly looks at her.
“ I knew I recognized you from somewhere.”
“ What? Where? ” I ask her.
“ she’s the girl obsessed with your pictures on
my Instagram page. She once asked me when
are you having your own page then says nasty
stuff. ”
“ And you didn’t tell me that? ”
“ Tell you what? that some little girl is obsessed
with you?. I would have had I known she’s one
of the ones you rescued. Women are obsessed
with you love and I don’t care cause you’re
mine only. ” she says smiling. I give her a full
mouth kiss.
“ And I’m obsessed with you only. ” she laughs.
“ so aren’t you going to say anything about me
liking your pictures?.” I give her my most
intimidating look and I see her pulling back.
“ oh my God Dineo shut up!. ” his niece says.
“ Lumka take your friend upstairs now!. ”
mbuyiselo says.
They get up and leave. Luh sighs.
“ are you okay? ” I ask her.
“ hearing the name of that man again just
brought back unpleasant memories. It’s like my
past keeps following me and I… ”
“ Bay he’s dead!. He won’t hurt you ever again
or anyone. ”
“ but she’s here mbuso and she remembers you.
What if she one day blabs it out to someone?.
She found his niece on Facebook so they can be
just friends why?. Why would she want to be in
contact with people who will remind her of that
traumatic time she went through?. She also
managed to find me on Instagram. I should have
made my account private but I didn’t know
that…... ” this is what I didn’t want. Bringing
her here was supposed to be relaxing for her not
stress her out. I pull her to me.
“ nothing will happen to you baby I promise. ”
“ you met her only once mbuso but she didn’t
forget you. Sbu was also there but she didn’t try
to find him. What does she want with you. Why
didn’t she forget you?. What if something
happens to you?.” She hugs me tight.
“ luh I promise you that nothing will happen to
him okay. The both of you. We made sure that
everything is taken care of. ” sbu says.
“ I also made sure that everything was taken
care of too and they did a great job so don’t
worry about my niece saying anything cause she
won’t but her friend looks like she’s going to be
a problem. ”
“ I don’t fucken need this right now!. ” I kiss her
forehead.
“ there’s a way we can deal with her. ” sbu says.
“ Don’t kill her sbu. ” mbuyiselo laughs.
“ is there anything you all are doing she doesn’t
know? ” mbuyiselo asks
“ No. ” sbu and I say at the same time. Luh
knows what she needs to know.
“ wow. You must really trust her then. ” he says
looking at me.
“ I do with everything I have. ” he nods and
looks at me with new found respect.
“ I won’t kill her but we can give her something
that will make her forget. ” sbu says.
“ something like what? ” mbuyiselo asks
“ that serum we have. The one we got from
jama. ” I remember it now.
“ that one exactly. ” sbu says
“ but it will erase all her memories mbuso. She
had a family and people who love her. You were
suppose to give it to all of them when you sent
them home so they wouldn’t remember your
names and faces. You have to find another way
to make her keep her mouth shut. ” luh says.
“ she’s right. I’ll deal with her. ” mbuyiselo
says. Nandi comes walking in slowly.
“ We’re you eavesdropping nandi? ” luh asks
her.
“ no Mrs gumede I heard nothing. ” nandi says.
“ I saw you nandi and if you dare tell anyone
what you heard us talking about?. Your Dom
will not only lose his submissive but I will kill
you myself of you ever disrespect me in front of
my husband again. I saw the way you looked at
them and how your body moved when you saw
two dominant alpha males. I know my husband
won’t touch even I single stray of your hair but
do what you did again and you’ll be sorry. ” we
all look at each other shocked. My wife is a bad
ass I’m so proud right now.
“ yes Mrs gumede. May I leave. ”
“ you may. ” she practically runs out of the
room with her body shaking.
“ how the hell did you figure that out. ” sbu
asks.
“ I saw the two of you giving each other looks
and how submissive her body went when she
saw you. I could feel mbuso's dominant side
coming out when her body got submissive. ”
fuck me.
“ love is that why you were crying when I found
you in bed? You thought I might do something?.
” I’m hurt she would think that.
“ I thought you brought me here cause you
knew that mbuyiselo is living the lifestyle you
used to live and you might be tempted so having
me here with you wouldn’t be so tempting. ”
“ what? I would never do that to you or to us.
We didn’t know and we found out the moment
she locked her eyes to us. That’s when we
realised that she’s a submissive. If I did know
love I would have asked for him to meet us
somewhere. I would never cheat on you baby
ever. I don’t miss my old life cause that time I
was messed up then I met you and fell in love
with you. I forgot what kind of life I was living
before I met you. My life with you is perfect
and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Nandi can
walk in here naked and I wouldn’t even care
cause I have everything I want and need right
here. Have you forgotten love? ”
“ what? ” she asks with her sweet soft voice.
“ That this dick only gets hard for you only ”
she blushes and covers her face on my chest
giggling.
“ Mbuso we’re not alone. ”
“ I don’t care. Have you forgotten though? ” she
shakes her head.
“ No never. ”
“ you have nothing to worry about then. ” she
nods. I lift her chin up and kiss the living day
light out of her and leave her breathless. These
two goons are watching us.
“ fuck me. Luh do you want another second
husband? ” share laughs.
“ No thank you. He’s all the man I need. ”
“ A woman after my own heart. I can’t believe
you two had this whole talk in front of us. ”
“ sorry about that. I forgot that you two existed
” we laugh.
“ I hope one day I’ll also have what you both
have cause that’s beautiful man. Mbuso you
have an amazing wife and luh I’m sorry I didn’t
give you the heads up about my lifestyle. Nandi
is not my submissive. She’s here cause she
pissed my brother off but she’s also not his
submissive. We saved her from her former
Dom’s who almost killed her. That’s why she’s
here. ” ok that explains a lot.
“ I understand and I m sorry it what I said came
across as if I’m judging how you’re living your
life cause I’m not. I was just for husband that’s
all. ”
“ I wouldn’t have let him even if he tried but we
all know he wouldn’t. Luh if you haven’t
noticed your husband doesn’t touch any other
female. Even a hand shake. That’s how he is. ”
“ Yeah I know. He’s got issues. ” we all laugh. “
but I love him the same. Even more now. ” I
peck her lips and she laughs.
“ stop cause you’re depressing us.” We laugh.
“ Now let’s talk about the real reason we are all
here but let’s go to my office. ” mbuyiselo says.
“ You guys go ahead. I have phone calls to
make. ”
“ Are you sure you’re okay? ”
“ I am baby. ” I kiss her forehead. “ Where
Percy? ” she asks
“ He went to see his girlfriend. ” sbu tells her.
During my time? This boy.
“ I’ll be in the bedroom then. ” she gets up and
leaves us and we watch her.
“ I’m going to burn that dress. ” they laugh at
me and I am serious.

CHAPTER 65
CHAPTER 65
MBUSO.

We go upstairs to the office and we sit

down as he closes the door so we can
have some privacy. We all take a seat at
the couch in the office and he looks at us.

" so guys what can I help you with "

" I have a twin brother that I didn’t know

existed and we have been trying to find him
for almost three years now and we haven’t
had any luck. So we are hoping a man like
you who has resources that I don’t seem to
have can help me find him." he looks at me
shocked.
" you didn’t know you had a twin brother?
How is that even possible man? "

" I am serious man. Its a long story I will tell

you about it but now I just need you to help
me find him cause I have no idea if he’s
alive or not? "

" tell me exactly how you found out. " I

guess I can tell him cause he’s about to
help me find my brother so he deserves to
know everything and not be kept in the dark
in case he happens to find him so I tell him
everything my mom did and what we found
out when we went to oPhongolo.

" wow I cant believe she did that. kept that

gruesome secret for all those years and
didn’t say anything?. Man I thought my
mom was worse and she might be but
yours is worse and she’s still alive? Why? "

" yes she is cause we haven’t decided what

to do and frankly it’s dad decision to make.
Can you help me though? "

" I will help you guys cause you saved my

niece from that monster. She could have
been sold anywhere in the world and we
would have never found her if it wasn’t for
you guys so thank you and this is nothing.
I'll help you find him. Mabutho my brother
was in the military and he knows people so
between us we can help you find both of
them. "

" thank you. How long do you think that

might take? "
" just give me a couple of days then we'll
have something for you."

" I would really appreciate it if you guys can

find anything that might be of help. " he
nods.

" when are you guys leaving Pretoria ? "

" since you asked my wife to cook you

dinner then we'll leave tomorrow for Joburg
cause I have to go and see my little brother
at his house. He hasn’t been home in a
long time cause he's still dealing with our
mother's betrayal. "
" fuck man that’s hard. I wouldn’t blame him
if he wanted nothing to do with the family.
cause i definitely would do the same."

" yeah that’s some fucked up shit they are

all going through but I know they will be a
family again. I'm just worried about how
Qwabe is handling this whole situation. "

" and he went to see my mom after almost

three years of not seeing her. "

" It must be hard cause everything rests on

him. Where is she? "

" at sbu farm in the free state. She has

people watching over her so she wont run
away or try something stupid but she's well
taken care of. " I tell him.
" yeah. Qwabe should be there by now. 5i
hope he wont kill her."

" if he wanted to he would have killed her

the very same day he found out the truth
about what she did." I tell them.

" I would have killed my wife if she did that.

I wouldn’t care man cause I’m my eyes
that’s total betrayal."

" its hard being him right now. " sbu says.

" do you think if it happens that your birth

mother is alive what will your dad do? "
Mbuyiselo asks.
" if she still loves him and remembers him
and possibly not married maybe he will take
her as his second wife." sbu says and I give
him what the fuck look!. they laugh at me.

" I just want to find my mom and brother. I

just hope they didn’t have a hard life without
my dad cause that would break my heart.
I'm wealthy while I might have a struggling
parent and sibling somewhere out there. no
man that’s fucked up."

" but you shouldn’t feel guilty cause you all

didn’t know. Your mom was going to take
this secret to her grave if that bitch didn’t
say anything. she was never going to tell
you or your dad. " I heave a sigh.
" I know and what makes if worse and feel
as if I’m betraying my birth mother is I still
love her and see her as my mom you know.
You don’t just stop loving someone who
has loved you cared for you and made sure
you had everything you have ever wanted.
Sometimes I feel very guilty. Yes I am very
angry at her for robbing us of the life we
we’re supposed to live. and another part in
me also feels sorry for her. " they nod in
understanding.

" guys how are we going to make sure that

your nieces friend doesn’t keeps her mouth
shut cause girl is going to cause trouble for
us." sbu asks.

" I’ll find a way guys don’t worry." mbuyiselo

says.
" how did you find my number though cause
my security is pretty tight?."

" well when your man dropped off my niece

at Ermelo we were all home. i took his
picture the number plate and man you guys
don’t play with your security. We sent one
of my guys to follow your guy back and
fortunately for us your guy had a puncture
on the way so mine helped him and he was
able to clone his phone and that’s how I got
all your numbers. "

" smart ass. " he grins.

" where's your sub? "sbu asks him. Okay I

didn’t think he would ask that.
" don't have one yet I’m still looking for a
woman who can stand being with a sadistic
mother fucker like me. for now I just visit
clubs and play there. "

" and nandi?. do you play with her too? " I

ask him

" I could but I don’t. Nandi was owned by

three Dom’s and they were very cruel with
her. We rescued her at a club when they
beat her up and left her for dead. She was
going to die if we didn’t rescue her. She
likes to be owned by many men. a
monogamous relationship is not her thing. "

" for a submissive who has had three

dominants she lacks respect and
discipline." I say. sbu smiles at me.
" and it if was you? men she would be
straight inline. " sbu says and we laugh.

" you have to remind her who is the Dom

here and what happens if she doesn’t follow
the rules. " I say.

" I know that’s why Mthunzi sent her here

cause he knows im the only one who can
give her the disciple she’s craving. "

" she thrives on pain? " sbu asks.

" like a mother fucker. " we laugh.

" do you ever think you will introduce luh to
that side of you? " sbu asks me.

" are you hiding that side of you from her? "
I take a deep breath.

" luh knows all of me there isn't a apart of

me she doesn’t know. My dominant side is
the first side she knew. I was very hard and
cruel to her and she knows all of me. Would
introduce her to BDSM? No cause that
would mean I’m not happy with our sex life.
I don’t miss that world guys. There was a
time when I hurt her and it hurt me so much
too and I never want to do that to her ever
again. When I fell in love with luh everything
changed for me because she gave me
more than what I ever thought I would get
from her. She trusts me completely and she
knows I would never hurt her in any way.
She is submissive to me her husband and
she lets me do what needs to be done. Luh
is my home my safe haven. She grounds
me in a way I can't explain and I don’t know
if she knows this but I have told her that
sheds the only one who can truly hurt me
because she has power over me. What she
says goes that’s how it is. " I smile to
myself.

" wow man now you are making me want to

fall inlove and have that dreamy look on
your face." we laugh. " but in all honestly we
all want someone we can come home to be
vulnerable and be completely yourself."

" that’s true man and once you have that.

You'll never trade that for anything. Ever!."
" what my brother here is trying to say is he
is obsessed with his wife and I don’t blame
him. " we laugh.

“ yeah women likehee are rare to find.

When you meet a wan and you think you
are going to start something great then you
realise she wants to compete with you in
everything.. Money alcohol and in the
bedroom and that’s a total turn off. We have
to complete each other and not compete. ”
mbuyiselo states.

“ You said it man. They can’t let you to just

be the man and take care of her and
everything. She can work and do all those
things but she should also let you be the
man. But because we all wear pants now
so…” sbu says we laugh and I agree with
what they both said.
" let me call mabutho so he start the
investigation. "

" ohk we will be back later we are going to

joburg to see my brother. "

" I’ll call you if he needs anything more. " we

get up and leave.

" let me check on luh so we can all go. "

" I’ll go change and call percy. where the

fuck is he? "

" you guys are always saying I’m hard on

him but look he’s not here and he didn’t
even bother to tell me where he’s going so
you sort him out. "

" fuck! " I leave him chuckling and go to the

bedroom we slept in.

I open the door and find her on her phone.

she's laying on her back and her creamy
beautiful legs are just there. My mouth
salivates cause I just want to run my tongue
on those creamy legs. I close the door
unbac6kle my jeans walk to her and she
sees me. Her mouth hangs open and I put
my finger on my mouth shushing her. She
bites her lip and I smirk.

I get between her thighs move my jeans

and underwear to my legs. I open her legs
and she sighs fuck I love her. I take a peek
and see she is not wearing any underwear.
I look at her and she smirks and winks at
me. She's talking to Sims I think. I move my
body down so my face can be on her pussy
open her legs and she’s about to call my
name but I look at her and mouth " you say
any word or make any sound open her legs
and she’s about to call my name but I look
at her and mouth " you say any word or
make any sound I stop. do you hear me? "
she nods trying to breath normal but I know
sims is smart and she’s going to know what
luh is doing.

I take my finger to her pussy and she’s wet.

I touch her hard nub and her back arches. I
put my finger in her warm tight pussy and
she opens her legs wider Fuck me! I'm one
blessed man. I smile then bury my head in
my favourite place in the world and she
sighs. she smells fresh like clean water and
that soft labia of hers tastes like honey. I
love it. I tongue fuck her nip tuck her clit
softly with my tongue teeth and lips and
I feel her hand on my head pressing me
harder and her legs begin to shake and
I know she's about to come.

" I ....uhm...sims I have to go...uh"

" oh my God luh you are talking to me while

having sex? " she laughs then saya " you’ll
are so nasty yoh! bye!" she hangs up and I
chuckle and my wife moans.

" yes yes just right there...oh GOD! " her

legs shake as she cums but I quickly get up
and thrust into her hard fast and she
screams and calls my name and I don’t
stop. I fuck her hard deep and long as she
cums around my dick hands on ass pulling
me in deeper and fuck she feels amazing.
She continues to come milking my dick her
pussy muscles squeezing and contracting
around my dick and fuck!. I cant hold on
much longer I'm going to fucken cum fuck!.

I can feel my blood pumping and going in

one direction. To my dick. My balls get
heavy and my dick expands and fuck......I
bury my hands in her hair and grip it tight
force my tongue into her mouth and she
welcomes me cause she moans and I kiss
her stealing every breath she takes. I thrust
four more times her nails dig deep in my
ass and that throws me over the edge and I
fucken shoot my seed in her and groan in
her mouth still pumping my hips until I let
out the last drop and fall heavily into her. I
wrap my hands tight and we both breath out
deeply.

" I love you " she says.

" I love you more baby. " she kisses my
forehead and I smile.

" I don’t want to get up now. I want to make

love to you all day and until we’re both
exhausted. " she giggles.

" then why cant we do it? "

" I thought we can go and see zipho. "

" go without me I have to start and prepare

for dinner. "

" you don’t have to do anything luh "

" don’t be like that my husband. " i groan.
she laughs. " get up and shower quickly. "

" I don’t want to leave you here? "

" mothing will happen to me mbuso. if you

didn’t trust umbuyiselo you wouldn't have
brought me here with you. "

" I know. I know. "

" then get up you sex freak. "

" not so fast. " I lift my body and pull out and
groan. Fuck her pussy is so warm. I get off
the bed then look at the door and see it is
slightly open. What the fuck?! Someone
was watching us. Who the fuck did?. I look
at luh and her eyes closed so I quickly
close and lock the door cause I don’t want
her to freak out then I go to the bathroom

" take our towel its the pink one " i chuckle. I
come out with it wipe her then wipe myself.
I take off all my clothes and she frowns.

" what are you doing? "

" sexing you! "

" mbuso! you have to go and see zipho! . "

" after I'm done with you look at me baby he

still wants you."
" he always wants me boo " she laughs.

" you don’t want me too? "

" you know I do. "

" then get off the bed and get on this face
and fuck it. " she squeezes her thighs. I
grin.

She gets off the bed and I help her take off
her clothes kissing her passionately.

" can you wear this dress for me only at

home? "
" so you won’t burn it? " she asks between
kisses. So she heard me.

" only if I'm the one who gets to see you

wearing it. "

" deal. " I slap her ass and it jiggles God all
that ass will be in my face?. I lick my lips.

I lay on my back grab my already hard dick

and pump it up and down. She crawls on
top of me and wants to suck me but I’m not
having that.

" not now baby. I want that pussy on my

face. " she continues to crawl on me until i
can see her pink glistening pussy on my
lips. I put my hands on her ass open my
mouth and push my tongue in her pussy
and she moans.

I thoroughly fucked my wife and left her

sleeping peacefully in the bedroom after I
told her to lock it when i5 left the bedroom
and she locked it then went to sleep. She
can nap for a few hours before she begins
to cook.

" for a man who kept me waiting for hours

having sex with his wife you look grumpy
and not a happy man you're supposed to. "
sbu says and that fucker Percy is back and
i told him to stay behind cause I don’t know
who was watching us.
" Someone was watching us. " I say driving.

" you and luh having sex? " he asks

shocked.

" yes. "

" why do you say that "

" because the door was opened and I know

for sure that I closed it when I got in."

" you think its him? "

" I don’t know but I don’t think he’s the kid of
man who would just do that. He's a Dom
and he knows its against the code to do
that. " he keeps quiet like he’s thinking then
he looks at me.

" its not him. it's that troublesome girl. "

" what? "

" it makes sense now. She came in the

lounge looking all mad saying ' how can she
just lie there doing nothing. ' " he shakes his
head.

" that little bitch! " I grip the steering wheel

until my knuckles turn white. That little bitch
is getting on my last damn nerve.
" I didn’t know what she was talking about
and we just ignored her. "

" if mbuyiselo doesn’t sort that girl out sbu?

I’m going to hurt her! "

" she's obsessed with you bro."

“ And that might be dangerous. She might

hurt luh. ” I say.

“ goo thing she knows how to defend

herself now. ” when we came back from the
stress holiday I got them a personal trainer
to teach them self defence classes and they
took shooting classes too. They all now
have their licensed guns. They have to be
able to protect themselves should anything
happen but that doesn’t mean I’m nit
worried that I left her there even though
Percy is there.

" man why didn't she become obsessed

with you bro? " we laugh'

“ You’re handsome man have you seen

your self? ” we laugh

“ I forget how crazy you can be sometimes

”

“ You know I always got your back. ”

“ I have yours too. Brothers forever. ” we fist

bump. “ Sbu? ”
“ what? ” I laugh. He knows I’m about to
piss him off.

“ you have to stop running and face your

responsibilities. ”

“ fuck off fool. ” he looks outside. He knows

I’m right and he’s running out of time.
CHAPTER 66

LUNGI.
I make my way downstairs and I am so tired. I
don’t even feel like cooking anymore but I
promised mbuyiselo that I will and so I have to.
There's that girl obsessed with my husband in
the longue and she’s drinking wine or
something. She gives me one nasty look and I
ignore her. I don’t have time for that shit. I get
in the kitchen and nandi is drinking her tea. I
give her a polite smile and she gives me a fake
one. great she was pretending to be sorry.
" can you show me where everything is in your
kitchen? " I smile.
" this is not my kitchen. "
" I know and I was just being polite. You see
nandi until there’s a lady of this house this
kitchen belongs to you cause your the one who
cooks and prepares every meal your master eats.
" she looks down. " I'm sorry if I said that
wrong but he is your master right? "
" yes. "
" and me being his guest I'm asking you politely
to show me everything that’s in here?."
" that’s ok sis lungi. I’ll show you. " lumka says.
I smile at her.
" so what does your uncle like to eat? " I ask her
since nandi wont help me.
" he eats anything and everything as long as you
wont feed him. Pap and amasi or milk and no
salad for him at all. " we giggle.
" and you what do you like? " she blushes and a
thought just crosses my mind. thami would have
liked her I think.
" uhm can you like cook us you know seven
colours? I haven’t had in forever. " She’s sweet.
" then you'll help me peel the vegetables. "
" my pleasure. " she takes me to the pantry and
we take out all the fresh vegetables and bring
them to the kitchen island. I decide to cook
mutton stew and also grilled chicken on the side
so anyone can choose what they prefer to eat.
" make sure when you're done you leave the
kitchen squeaky clean. "
" yes ma'am " lumka bursts out laughing. " are
you sure you don’t want to join us? "
" no thank you. " she says sneering. why am I
the bad guy here?.
" don’t miss us too much. " lumka says. nandi
looks like she wants to throttle her. She gets up
and leaves us.
I marinate the chicken while lumka chops the
vegetables. after I'm done with marinating the
chicken I put it in the fridge so the marinate can
set in the meat then I focus on the mutton stew.
Lumka tells me about her life in Ermelo and
how she wishes she can live here but her uncle
wont hear none of that. I tell her about my life in
Standerton and I realise that I m okay now with
thami's passing. I have made peace with it.
" the house smells wonderful sis lungi. " It
really does.
" well you did all the hard work. Thank you
lumka. " she smiles.
The food is about to be done and mbuso is still
not back. Percy is outside glued to his phone
and it must be a girl who has that much attention
from him.
" can you help me set the table please. "
" When I’m here I never do anything in this
house. I just get up shower then eat and that's
pretty much it." she rolls her eyes.
" you should ask him for a job so you wont be
bored."
" yeah I don’t know why I didn’t think of that.
thanks sis luh."
We go the dining room and start setting the
table.
" isn't this just nice. The two of you meet for the
first time and already you're best friends. " she
claps her hands.
" you are drunk dineo go and sleep. You don’t
want me to call my uncle down here. "
" my uncle this! my uncle that! nywe! nywe!
nywe! agh man "
" why are you being like this dineo?. What is
your problem exactly? " Links asks her.
" I don't have a problem with you lumka you're
my friend but her! " she says pointing at me.
" don’t you fucken point at me! " she laughs.
" you frigid bitch! laying there like a dead
chicken " what?
" what did you just say to me? "
" I. Called. You. A. Fucken. Frigid. Bitch! " she
claps her hands with each word and moving her
head side to side.
" Dineo ungalinge uzongiphaphela mina
uyangizwa?. Anguyena umngani wakho mina!. (
don’t you dare be forward with me cause I am
not your friend!. ) " she laughs.

The are many cars in the yard and it looks like

zipho is throwing one hell of a party. I instantly
get pissed cause he is using alcohol and women
to deal with everything and that is only going to
lead him to a very dark whole.
" when will this boy grow up? " sbu asks
" and I’m fucken sick of it. He needs to snap out
of it. "
We park the car outside then walk in and the
smell of cigarette and alcohol just hits you.
" I wouldn't be surprised if they are also doing
drugs here and smoking a joint. " sbu says.
" well you can feel the smell. "
There are half naked girls drinking and walking
around like they have no care in the world.
" when was the last time you saw this many
naked girls? "
" these are kids man. just look at them?. I doubt
any of them are above the age of 25. " zipho is
really getting me mad.
" hey boys ? " two girls say winking at us.
" voestek man! and go put some fucken clothes
on!" sbu says and I laugh cause that’s exactly
what I was going to say. The house is full
packed and the music is blasting on speakers
and I wonder how come neighbours are not
complaining about the noise then I realise that
maybe most of them are here.
I can't see zipho anywhere and frankly all these
people are just pissing me off. I see two girls
sniffing coke. I stand and watch them and I just
can't believe this is the fucken shit that has been
keeping him away from his family. I walk
towards them and kick that table and they
scream watching the coke turn into dust in the
air and floor.
" what the fuck dude! you're going to pay for
that! " this little short mother fucker says then
looks at me and stops.
I take out my gun point it upwards and shoot
two bullets. They all scream the music stops and
everyone looks at me in silence.
" ZIPHO! " I shout his name .
" oh shit! " I hear someone says.
" Bonani! Thapelo! The both of you better keep
your asses where they are. The rest of you better
leave my fucken house right now! " someone
laughs then sbu shoots a pot plant and they run
out screaming.
" where is zipho? " these two fools were high
but as soon as they see me and sbu they sober
up same time.
" we we don’t know bhut mbuso " thapelo
says. i laugh shaking my head.
" you don’t know where zipho is but you're here
at his house? how does that work? " sbu asks
them.
" we don’t know uncle. we swear. " he looks at
bonani who is looking down literally shaking. I
point my gun at him and he almost pisses
himself.
" bonani? where is my little brother? "
" he...he is " he stutters
" he doesn’t know where he is cause he
wasn’t...." sbu punches him on the face breaking
his nose and he screams like a little bitch.
" you talk too damn much and he wasn’t asking
you. Bonani talk!. where is zipho? "
" he is upstairs sleeping. " what? I feel my heart
skipping a beat.
" what happened to him? " i ask him
" he...he got beaten up. "
" WHAT? AND YOU DIDNT FUCKEN CALL
ME? " I run to his bedroom and open the door. I
walk closer to the bed and my heart drops. I see
a chair and I take it and throw it on the mirror
and it beaks into pieces. He struggles to sit up
but eventually does and when he sees me he
freezes.
" who did that to you? " he keeps quiet. " who
the fuck did that to you? " his face is badly
bruised and I want to kill someone.
Sbu walks in with those two idiots and I can see
they both have broken noses. I walk to the bed
and my brother shifts away from me. I grab his
face hard and he groans in pain. I grab tighter
until he tears up then I let go.
" tell me who the fuck did this to you! "
" it was themba! " huh?
" themba who zipho? "
" your friend themba who's working for you. "
" this mother fucker again! " sbu says.
" FUCK! " to think I let this mother fucker go
after he betrayed me but he still has the guts to
put his hands on my brother?. That’s how he
fucken thanks me?!.
" you will both clean this whole house now and
when I come back tomorrow I better find it
squeaky clean. Do you hear me? "
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" yes uncle. "
" get the fuck out of her and start cleaning!.
" they run out.
Sbu helps me pick up zipho and we take
him to the car and drive to mbuyiselo's
house.
" you just layed there and let him do all the
work " what?
" dineo you went there so you can spy on
them? " lumka says covering her mouth
shook.
" I wanted to ask mbuso something cause I
saw him coming out of your uncle’s office. I
thought he was going to be alone but then I
knocked and got no answer and so I
pushed the door open and viola I saw..."
she sighs wiping her forehead.
" were you watching me and my husband
having sex? "
" he was the one doing the work and you
just laid there like a dead...." I bitch slap
that smug off her face and she almost falls.
I fold my hands and look at her. She holds
her cheek looking at me like I’m crazy.
" did you?........did you just fucken slap me
bitch? "
" call me a bitch me again and I’ll fucken
slap you again! "
" I’m going to fucken kill you bitch! " she
takes a plate and throws it at me but I duck
quickly before it hits my head and it hits the
wall instead.
She runs to me holding a steak knife and I
kick it off her hand with my right leg and it
falls somewhere. She screams cause I
made sure I kick that knife off hard. I go to
her and punch on her stomach then throw a
mean punch to her face too and she falls
down crying hysterically. I put my leg on her
chest and hold her down.
Percy ran in when he heard the plate
breaking and he’s now looking at me
shocked. Mbuyiselo comes in with another
man whom I assume is his brother cause
he looks like him.
" ah you had to poke her dineo cause you
don’t listen do you?! " mbuyiselo asks
" how long did you watch us? "
" get your foot off me! " I move it to her
throat and push it down. She begins to
choke and I put more pressure.
" talk you little bitch! " I ease off the
pressure a little.
" Not long. I was scared you will both see
me. "
" did you fucken record us? " my husband
asks and I look up and both of them
have....zipho?
" is that zipho? " I get my leg off this bitch
and run to them. " oh my God zipho what
happened to you?! Who did this to him
mbuso? "
" man I’m sorry to just show up with my
brother like this but he needs to sleep
tonight then tomorrow we are flying back
home. "
" no problem man. lets take him to the other
guest bedroom. " mbuyiselo says.
" percy come and help sbu. " they take
zipho to the bedroom. " lumka I need you to
bring me anything digital that belongs to
this girl. " he says
" yes uncle mbuso. " she runs upstairs. she
looks pretty shaken up.
" did you record us? "
" no no I swear I didn’t. if just watched that’s
all. "
" give me your phone! unlock it. " she takes
it out of her jeans unlocks it and gives it to
him.
" I’m going to check on zipho." I tell him
" ok love. " I run upstairs.
I check her gallery every social media and
everything I can think of and there’s
nothing. lumka comes down with this girls
other phone and laptop. I open the laptop
and its unlocked search for it too and
there’s nothing on it and her other phone
too. I use her laptop to get in to my server
and find a virus that I have secretly stashed
somewhere should anything happen to me
so I can erase any information. I download
it to her laptop send it to her phones too
using her email address and watch as she
loses everything. her phones and laptop will
never work.
" do you have any acid in here? " I ask
mbuyi.
" I do. " he leaves and comes with a
container of it.
I put it in the sink with all her phones then
pour the acid and she cries as she watches
her gadgets melt into nothing. I take my gun
then roughly pull her by her braids and she
screams.
" open your mouth. " she does. I shove that
gun in her mouth. " if I ever hear anything
about you see you or find you snooping
around my family or this family I will come
at your place and I’ll set your mother father
little brothers on fire with you watching. I
know your whole family and that cousin you
love so much. You think what Ngqakula did
to you was the worst thing? little girl you
don’t know nothing. But if you want to open
this big mouth of yours tell even a single
soul what happened in P.E here or about
any of us then you will know who the fuck I
am. Stay the fuck away from lumka and
never ever contact her again anywhere
cause I will be watching you. do you
understand? "
" ye yes... yes I understand. "
" you will apologize to lumka here her uncle
and my wife too. "
" yes I will. I am sorry everyone I don’t know
why I behaved that way. " sbu scoffs.
" go clean yourself up pack your shit and
my man will drive you home okay? "
" yes sir. " she runs upstairs. I look at lumka
and she’s scared of me. good.
" I have to go and talk to someone who beat
my brother up."
" need some help? "
" we've got this but thanks man. You’re
already doing enough. " I tell his brother.
" oh guys this is Mabutho my brother. the
one I told you about. " we shake hands after
the introductions then leave.
" the girl? "
" we will be taken care off. I don’t trust her. "
" she's too much of a big mouth. "sbu says.
" I can't believe themba beat up zipho. "
" he has made many mistakes and got
comfortable for his own good. we need to
teach him a lesson. "
" he’s dead. He just doesn’t know it yet. " I
say and sbu nods.
CHAPTER 67
CHAPTER 67
MBUSO.
I haven't been to my house in a year and to think
that this mother who put his hands on my little
brother manages my company that is here lives
in my house rent free then he has the fucken
nerve to beat up my brother?!. I don’t care what
reason he thinks justifies that cause he was
suppose to call me and let me know what is
going on. I punch the code then the gate opens
and we get in. His car is on the driveway and
another one. I switch off the engen and we stay
in the car.
" I have an idea. " I tell sbu.
" and themba should be very worried. "
" Call Percy and tell him to bring that girl here.
"
" what's the plan. "
" Percy comes here with that little bitch after I
beat the shit out of him. I'm going to tell him to
drive the girl back home. I'll leave you with
them and say there's an emergency or something
then leave but I’ll be hiding in his car take one
of his guns cause we both know where he hides
them. You and Percy will follow his car behind
then I'll signal for you to call the cops when
they are halfway on the road after I have blown
the bitches brain off and frame the mother
fucker. He will go to jail then I’ll find someone
in the inside to torture him until he can't take it
anymore and maybe he will save us the trouble
and kill himself. end of story."
" Remind me to never cross you. ever! "
" oh please your worse than me. " he laughs. he
takes out his phone and calls Percy to bring the
girl here.
" what if he starts talking there about us."
" we know people on the inside and we can
make their life very comfortable in there and all
they have to do is to make sure that themba
doesn't sing like a canary there."
" he has to die man. Two months is enough with
him there."
" lets see that mother fucker who’s not even
aware that we are here. " we get out of the car
walk to the door its not locked then open it. We
get inside and we can hear sound of people
fucking. I say people cause it sounds like there
are more than two people.
We look at each other and laugh going upstairs.
The door is wide open and themba is fucking a
girl from behind and the girl he’s fucking is
muffing another girl who’s laying on her back.
How nice of them. We silently walk in and
watch them. The man deserves to have his last
orgasm on earth since he's going to die.
Themba is fucking like he's running a marathon
and he can't wait to cross the finishing line. I
look at sbu and he's shaking his head like he
wants to laugh but I shake my head. The girl
who being muffed raises her head and sees us
and her eyes go wide. I thought she was going
to scream but the bitch smiles. He sure knows
how to pick them.
The girl screams as she comes the one being
fucked screams too and themba finally reaches
the finishing line. We clap hands he jumps
turning and looks at us shocked.
" what the fuck! How did you get in here?. "
" you're disgusting man cover yourself. " sbu
says
" hey guys why didn't you tell me you're
coming? " themba says shaking up and looking
for something to wear.
" Are they going to join us? " the two girls says
kissing.
" put your clothes on and get the fuck out of my
house."
" what? but we thought….. " I take out my gun
and point it on them. They scream.
" we don’t have money to go back home. We
took an Uber to come here."
" here is the money leave! " themba throws
notes at them and they take it.
" don’t ever call us you mother fucker! " one of
the girls says to themba running out of the
bedroom.
" uhm guys can you wait for me downstairs. I
want to shower quickly.
" nah you don’t have to shower. We just need
something from you that’s why we are here. "
" is there a problem? "
" yes a girl problem. " he laughs and we join
them.
" I knew you wouldn’t last with that girl " he
shakes his head he refers my wife as ‘ that girl ‘.
The nerve of this mother fucker. I’ll let it go for
now. " a man like you can never be tamed. Men
like us" he says. sbu and I look at each other and
we laugh.
We go downstairs and Percy comes in the house
walking in with the girl Mabutho. Somehow I
knew one of them was going to tag along. The
girl looks terrified and she should be.
'' Just in time. " I say.
" what am I doing here? " she says.
" who said you can talk? " sbu says.
" but I'm suppose to be on my way home? "
" and you are going home but for now just sit
down. " Percy pulls a chair for her and she sits
down.
" so this is her? " themba asks?
" why don’t you sit down too and face her. "
" I don't know her man "
" I know you don’t. Pull a chair sit down and
face her. " he shakes his head.
" what's all this guys? why do I feel like
something is wrong? "
" because it is. Now sit your ass down. " sbu
says.
" don't fucken talk to me like that sbu! " sbu
pulls out his gun and points is at him. Themba
raises his hands up. " wait now man what going
on? What did I do? " he says sitting down.
" Themba meet what's your name again? " I ask
the girl?
" dineo my name is dineo. " her voice trembles.
" meet dineo who been disrespecting my wife. "
" oh...ok. This is the girl you left your wife for?
" we all laugh.
" nah luh is still my wife and I'll never leave her
for anyone. Ever!. But this girl had the audacity
to think that she can have something with me. "
" I'm sorry uncle mbuso. " we laugh
" ncooh I'm uncle now?. You know I’m not the
kind of person to give people second chances if
they piss me off. But I do when I like that
person. " I look at themba and his face gets pale.
" lucky you dineo " Percy says.
" dineo meet themba who runs one of my
companies lives in my house and betrayed me
and put his hands on my little brother. " themba
gets up but I punch his face breaking his nose
and he falls down. " get up and sit your skinny
ass on that chair. " he does wiping his nose
groaning.
" you see dineo themba used to work with the
man who kidnapped you. " she looks at him and
cries. " the reason we found you dineo is
because this mother fucker next to you betrayed
me and my brother sbu found that out. Sbu is
the reason why you are here and was never sold
to slavery or killed. The both of you got a
second chance in life to make things right and
live your lives but you didn't. You got full of
yourselves and came after people who wanted
nothing from you....."
" your brother...." he cuts me off.
" shut the fuck up! "
" what are you going to do to me? " she asks
crying hysterically.
" oh hell no. we are not going to do what you
think. As fucked up we are little girl we are not
rapists. You are going home but this one. " I
point at themba
" bro I can explain. "
" explain what themba?. "
" your brother fucked my girl man and then.... "
we all laugh.
" so you beat up my brother because he fucked
your girl? why didn’t you call me and tell me
what he’s doing? "
" I was going to then I found out that he got her
pregnant."
" what? " sbu and I say.
" yes I caught the two of them at her place and
when I asked what's going she told me she was
cheating on me and she's pregnant for him. I lost
it and then he hit me first and then we fought. I
told them that they can be together and I left.
Don't tell me you're here cause I disciplined the
boy. " This fool thing I'm stupid.
“ You say you both fought but my brother is the
only one who is badly bruised and you look
perfectly fine. Hell man you we’re even having
some pussy in there.” I take out my phone and
call luh.
" love? "
" is zipho awake? "
" he is. Do you want to talk to him? "
" yeah put him on loud speaker. "
" ok." I hear shuffling.
" bafo? ( brother) " zipho says.
" Tell me what happened between you and
themba? "
" He is the ex of my girlfriend he has been
harassing her wanting to get back to her but she
didn't want anything to do with him. Then one
day he came to her place and found us together
and he lost it when he saw me there. He left and
didn’t do anything but then three days ago I go
to see my girl and she tells me that themba was
here I go to see my girl and she tells me that
themba was here wanted to sleep with her but
then she ran to her room to call the police but
then he left. She was drinking juice then later at
night she called me crying and told me she was
not feeling well. I came and took her to the
hospital and we found out that she was pregnant
bro...." I feel darkness consume me.
" the doctor said they found traces of poison. He
wanted to kill her but she didn’t instead she lost
our baby bro! he killed our baby. I came to your
house to confront him and he was with his
friends and they ganged up on me and beat me
up. "
" I'm sorry bro. I'll see you in a few minutes. " I
hang up.
“ Mbuso? ” lub says.
“ When are you going to come? ”
“ when I’m done here love. ”
“ don’t kill him. Just do something but don’t kill
him.”
“ I can’t promise you that. ” she keeps quiet.
“ please come and leave themba alone. He will
her what is coming to him. ”
“ I love you I’ll be there just now. ” she sighs.
“ we love you too. ” she hangs up. I love her and
our kids.
" He's lying! He's lying! I didn't try to poison
anyone. " I take a deep breath.
" call your friends the one's who helped you beat
up my brother. Tell them to come here now if
you want to live themba." he takes out his phone
and calls them.
" they are coming. "
" I take his phone and put it on my pocket. " sit
down and cover my face cause I feel drained.
Something is wrong with me and my brothers.
Our whole family cause everything is just
falling apart and I am scared to think that maybe
all of this is happening because I have this dark
cloud that is following me and now it is
affecting my brother's life. I have to do this
cleansing ceremony and our mother has to be
there and I wish to God my twin brother and
mother will be there too. I look at this mother
fucker and I just want to empty all the bullets on
him.
" you killed my kid kids themba! GOD! HOW
COULD YOU?! "
" I didn't I swear! " sbu throws a punch on his
face he falls again gets up and tries to fight
back.
" I dare you to punch me! I dare you mother
fucker!. " Sbu says and he stops.
The door opens and two of his friends I have
never met get in and stop when they see us.
Mabutho closes the door behind them and points
his gun.
" walk. " he says. they raise their hands shocked.
I take out my gun and shoot both of them on the
face and they fall down. The screams and
almost pisses herself.
" Themba I want to beat you up so bad do
undispicable things to you and make you suffer
but I won't. I'm tired of people I know betraying
me cause I can't go around killing people. I have
kids now and they need me more than anything.
you killed our kids and robbed them of the life
they were suppose to live. "
" I made an honest mistake brother and I swear I
wouldn't have done it if I knew she was carrying
your brother's kids." he begs us with his eyes
cause he is petrified. He knows what I'm
capable of.
" I'm tired and I want to see my wife who's
nursing my brother. Sbu you know what to do
with them. Percy get one two of our guys to get
rid of these bodies. "
" boss the cops will find that the gun used to
shoot these guys belongs to you."
" I thought you knew me better than that. " does
Percy really think I shoot people using my own
personal gun? I chuckle.
" boss so you're letting them go just like that? "
Percy asks shocked.
" I guess they have a guardian angel watching
over them. " he looks at me confused.
" I'm coming with you. " mabutho says. We
leave.
" there's no way in hell you're letting that
mother fucker go just like that. "
" you know me. " I unlock themba's car and get
in the back seat. he drives an SUV so he wont
see us.
" what are we doing? "
" we are getting in here hiding then when they
are close to her home I will use this gun..." I
take it out under the drivers seat and pull the
trigger....no I’ll force him to blow the girls
brains off then call the cops he goes to jail and
dies in there. "
" won't he be suspicious that all the cars are
here? "
" he doesn't know what car we came with and
even if he knew what would he do? "
" you're crazy. I like you. " I laugh.
'" you guys are going to like the rest of the guys.
Put your on silent. "
" if they are like you then we will all get along.
" we move the seats then hide our big frames
and its very uncomfortable.
They come out after 15 minutes. Percy puts the
girls bags on the boot and he doesn't see us then
closes it. Themba and the girl get in the front
seats and close the door. He starts the engine
reverses and drives out.
" so where do you live? " he asks her.
" I live in Alex. " he keeps quiet as he drives.
" look dineo you are a beautiful girl and I think
you're smart. I know you have an idea now what
kind of man mbuso is and that man doesn't
forgive twice when people betray him. I know
him very well and I know he's up to something
which is why me and you have to work together.
"
" I don't want trouble themba please just take me
back home and back to my life. "
" or we can go straight to the police station and
tell them what you know about mbuso and I’ll
tell them everything I know about him and
every little shady thing he has done. " this
mother fucker! mabutho looks at me and shakes
his head.
" are you sure the police will help us cause all of
them are rich those people are wealthy and oh
my God what was I doing messing with wealthy
people?. How can I be so stupid to think a rich
man like mbuso could want a broke. poor
damaged girl like me?. It must be those novels I
read on Facebook that made me think I can find
myself a wealthy man too and he will fall in
love with me or make me his side chick. I blame
them!. " I almost laugh cause I have no idea
what this girl is talking about.
" Facebook what? look or we can just ran away.
Go to another province and start a new life
together. "
" didn't he say you work for him? "
" I do but I'm also a share holder in that
company "
" really? how much shares do you have? "
" 15 percent. "
" that's all? " Damn she sounds disappointed.
" yes but I can get more so we can be
comfortable. I can steal some of his money then
sell my shares and start my own business else
where. "
" you would do that for me? "
" well I know I'm not rich like them but I’m
doing pretty much okay and yes I would cause I
like you. I can treat you good. "
" ok lets run away but where to? "
" lets go to free state in Bloemfontein. They
wont know that we went there."
" ok. " FUCK!
They drive and themba continues to promise
this girl the moon and the starts and frankly I'm
just sick of it. I'm over it but I know I have to
wait until they get off N3 road and take the
route to Bloemfontein. after being in the car for
an hour I can see that we have left the N3 and
lucky for us. the road doesn't seem to be busy.
It's time these two died.
I shuffle behind the seat the girl screams
shocked. Themba looks at the rear view mirror
and sees us.
" I knew you wouldn't let us go just like that! I
knew it!."
" I also knew that you will go to the cops and try
to sell me out. Pull over themba or I swear to
God I'll blow your brains off. "
" Well then lets all die mother fuckers! "
Themba swerves the car I quickly try to get up
so I can hold the steering wheel but themba
bites my hand very hard I let go he keeps
swerving and I hear a huge clash as it collides
with another car and it rolls rolls and rolls. All I
hear is the screams of that girl and then
everything goes silent. where's luh my wife and
my kids?. I try to move get up and even speak
but I cant. The last thought I have before
darkness engulfs me is lungile and my kids.
CHAPTER 68
CHAPTER 68.

LUNGILE.

I feel off about this whole situation with

zipho and themba. I wish my husband
would let it go come and see if he's brother
is okay then he will deal with themba some
other time. Mbuyiselo gave zipho two pills
and they have knocked him out he's now
sleeping. I wish zipho would have told
mbuso what is happening but I don’t blame
him cause he wanted to do things on his
own fix his problems without involving his
brothers. I'm worried about his bruises
though cause I doubt he went to the
hospital.

I leave his room and go to the kitchen open

the fridge and pour cold water in the glass. I
take and bring it to my mouth but then I feel
this sharp pain hitting my chest and the
glass breaks down into pieces. I hold my
chest and struggle to breath. Nandi comes
in running.

" what the hell is wrong with you? Look at

the mess you have created man?! " I clutch
my chest when I feel the same pain hitting
me again.

" I...I can't....breathe. " I try to take deep

breathes but its getting hard.

Someone gives me a paper back I take it

put it on my mouth and breathe through it.

" breathe in......breathe out. " I do as she

says. she rubs my back and that honestly
that helps. me. She pulls me to sit on the
chair and my skin is covered in sweat. I feel
weird and I don't know why. I take out my
phone and call lesego.

" hey sis how are you? "

" I'm good what's wrong with the boys? " I

can hear them crying.

" oh you know you're kids love water and

when they have to come out its a huge
fight. " she is right. I nod as like she can see
me.

" ok sis. I'll see you tomorrow then. We are

coming back. kiss their chubby cheeks for
me. " A small smile forms on my lips.
" will do mommy bye. " I hang up.

" is your uncle back with my husband? "

" no aunt lungi. Maybe they are on their

way. "

" yeah I guess. I'm going to lie down a little I

don't feel good. " I walk to our bedroom
take off my shoes then lay on top of the bed
covering my self with a throw blanket.

" I really don’t know what's wrong with them

sis lesego." The nannies are panicking
cause the boys. They have been crying the
whole day since they woke up.
I didn't want to worry luh about the boys
cause I think they are probably sick of us
and they want their parents back. I take
sbonelo who's wailing the loudest put him
on my back and try to calm him down but
this one you can see he's going to me more
like his dad.

" oh my little Gumede please calm down for

aunty lesego. Mommy and daddy are
coming back tomorrow little one please stop
crying. " I am shushing him up and down
but that is not helping.

I take him off my back and look at him and

his whole face is so red like he is sick. They
are starting to freak me out. Sicelo walks in
coming from work and he frowns. He kisses
me then looks at the boys.
" what's wrong with them.? "

" they won't stop crying ad I don't know

what’s wrong. "

" maybe they want to sleep or miss their

parents. "

" no papa they have been crying like this

ever since they woke up. Look at how red
they are. I'm worried about them. "

" yeah it looks like some thing is wrong. "

" I checked their temperature and any signs

of fever but it6s all normal. I know they
teething but I doubt it can make them cry
this hard. "

He keeps quiet for a while then takes out

his phone.

" bro are you home?....Can you come here

with sims?......something is wrong with the
boys...ok. " he hangs up and looks at me.

He takes sboniso from the nanny he stops

crying for a little bit and I’m about to take a
deep breath but the he cries so loud I feel
tears pricking my eyes. He tries to calm him
down but they wont stop and that makes
me tear up too cause it's taking me back to
when I was alone raising kamo and when
she would cry like this I would be alone with
no one to help me.
" Ungakhali mama. ( don't cry love. ) The
boys will be fine. " he wipes my tears and
kisses my forehead.

Bonga walks in with sims after 10 minutes.

He also looks at them alarmed. Sims takes
sbonelo from scelo and shushes him.

" something is wrong. Lets take them to

their parents bedroom. " We all go there
excluding the nannies. " put them down
here.

We put then on the carpet. Bonga walks to

their closet and comes out with candles
sage and something else I can't tell what it
is.
" good both your heads and shoulders are
covered. " Sicelo aunts when they gave me
my makoti clothes told me that I always
have to wear a doek and make sure that my
shoulders are covered whenever I go to
luh's house since she is also a married
woman and sims house. That is the law
here. Whenever I go to their house I'm
wearing a dress and doek on my head.
Even luh does that when she goes to sims
house and most of the time in my house
cause that's her brother's house but not
always.

Bonga lights the candles sage and that

thing I have no idea what it is. As it burns
he takes the snuff and sprinkles it on top of
the sage and the other thing that is also
burning. We all sneeze even the kids.
" Mnguni Qwabe Mnguni kaYeyeye
Osidlabehlezi bakaKhondlo
kaPhakathwayo...." he continues to say
their clan names taking the bowl that has
the burning sage and stuff and moves it all
around the kids. My husband stands
sbonelo up as bonga moves the sage on
his head face body and under his feet. He
does the same to sboniso and the kids stop
crying but the look sbonelo's face is hard
like how mbuso looks the few times I have
seen him mad. He has a deep frown on his
handsome face and it's troubling me.

"...ngicela nisixolele kukonke okubi

smiles. My God she’s pregnant.

" help me put them in bed. " sims and I

stand up. I take sbonelo she moves the
pillows off the bed and we put the kids in
the middle of the bed. " lets leave them
they will be fine. "

We close the door but we don’t leave. We

all just stand there not talking.
" Something is wrong. I'm going to call
mbuso. " he's about to take his phone out
when it rings. " It's sbu. Bro? ....

she moves the pillows off the bed and we

We close the door but we don’t leave. We

" Something is wrong. I'm going to call

when it rings. " It's sbu. Bro? .... wait. " he
says and puts him on loud speaker.

" ok talk everyone is here."

" there was an accident and....."

" what? " we all say at the same time. Oh

my God that explains why the kids were
crying. They knew something is wrong. " is
my sister okay sbu? Where is she? Where
is mbuso?! " I take his hand and try to calm
him down.

" It's mbuso. He was in an accident and we

are on our way to the Lanseria Private
hospital. " oh my god!

" how bad is it? " bonga asks. He looks

shuttered.
" it’s bad man. I need you to call your dad
and you need to come here. "

" where was luh. Is she hurt too? " scelo

asks.

" no she wasn’t here. I haven't told her. I

can't.....guys I'm scared. " he says breaking
down. God mbuso can't die cause that is
going kill luh. She's not going to handle it.

" listen sbu. You need to call mbuyiselo and

tell him to drive luh to Lens. They can't do
anything until luh comes and gives them the
go ahead. We'll see you there when we
come." bonga says.

" ok I will. Bonga call my brother and tell

him to bring you here with his helicopter. I
will arrange for you to land on the hospitals
rooftop. " he hangs up. Bonga just stands
there.

His minds seems like it has finally

registered what sbu was saying. he covers
his head with his hands.

" You won't shout or scream. We have a

house full of kids and if they hear anyone of
us losing it they are going to freak out. "
sicelo says but I know my man is freaking
out too.

" bonga call sbu's brother! " sims says.

Tears falling down her face. Bonga looks at
her then shakes his head.

" yes let me call him."

" I’ll call my dad and let him know. " my
husband says.

" lesogo come. " she takes my hand and we

go to the kitchen. Sis nonto and the nannies
are there and she has tears in her eyes. I
guess she heard everything. I give her a
hug.

" is bhuti mbuso going to be okay? "

" we don't know sis nonto. We need you

now more than we have ever needed you
sis nonto. I'm going to need you to make
sure that everything in this house is going
okay cause luh is going to need us and all
the help she can get. "
" you can count on me. " she says. She
takes out her phone looks at me and takes
a deep breath then calls someone on loud
speaker.

" Hello ma. " she's calling mbuso's mother.

" simphiwe? unjani sisi? ( how are you? ) "

" ma Ubaba ulapho eduze kwakho? ( is my

father in-law next to you? ) " his mom shifts
like walking away from him.

" I'm alone now you can talk. what's wrong

thandiwe cause your dad told me what
bonga did to you and I’m very disappointed
in him. "
" ma its not about us!. Mbuso was involved
in an accident and he's been taken to
Lanseria hosptital. I need you to tell ubaba
then drive up there. "

" oh my god! is he okay? tell me my son is

okay?! "

" I don’t know ma. We just found out now. "

" ok I'll tell him we will leave now. Ill see you
when we get there. "

" ok. " sims doesn’t hang up and we hear

his mom sobbing so loud then she hangs
up. Our husbands walk in and bonga is a
mess.
" we have to go now. I think you should
both stay. " My husband says

" hell no!. luh needs us they both do!. "

" baby we can't all leave. The kids are

going to freak out. " Bonga says to her.

" sims he's right. the kids will all freak if they
see not one of us is home. You go and I’ll
stay behind. " she pulls me to her and we
hug tight. We both cry then let go.

" thank you. "

" we are family sis. Don't thank me." bonga

takes her hand they leave.
" walk me out. " my husband says.
We walk out then he stops and sits down
on the chairs in the veranda. he sits me on
his lap I wrap my arms around him and cry.
He lets me cry until I stop.

" You feel better now? " I nod. " I love you
baby. I love you so much and thank you for
everything you have done and doing."

" your family luh and her husband

welcomed me and my kids with warm arms
and I knew what family is and what it
means when I met you and introduced me
to them. Mbuso has been nothing but kind
and he loves our kids I wish to God that he
will be okay for himself luh and their kids. "
" I'm scared for her for them. I'm scared
love cause I don’t know how luh is going to
take it." I kiss his forehead.

" yes she will break down but luh is strong

and she will face whatever God throws at
her cause we will all be with them. Go. "

" I'll tell you how it goes. " we kiss.

" be safe and come back to us. We need

you. I love you sicelo "

" ngiyakuthanda nami mama. " he gives me

one last kiss the runs to the car. They drive
out and leave. I stand outside for a few
minutes break down then collect myself and
head inside.
" Luh? Luh? Luh? " someone is shaking
me.

" mama what are you saying? " I ask my

mother. She's talking to me but I cant hear
a word she’s saying. " Mama I can't hear
you? "

" LUH? Mrs Gumede?! " they shake me

hard. I open my eyes and see mbuyiselo.

" what's wrong? " I sit up and look at him. I

feel my cheeks wet. I was crying?.

" we have to go to Lensaria. Your husband

and my brother were in an accident and
they need you there. come. "
I feel my whole world spin. I can hear
mbuyiselo talking but I can't make out what
he's saying exactly. I get up wear my shoes
take my bag. Zipho is already standing at
the door. I look at him and see a younger
version of mbuso and tears stream down
my face. He comes to me and hugs me. I
cry in his arms as we walk out and get in
the car.

" where is lumka? "

" you want her to come with us? "

" please. " mbuyiselo calls her name and

she comes out running. Like she was
already waiting to leave with us. She gets in
and mbuyiselo drives out fast.
I cant stop the tears that are falling because
my mind plays all types of scenarios in my
head. The what if's. What if my husband
dies and I'll be forced to raise my kids
without their father?. Mbuso can't die on
me. He better not cause I will not raise our
kids without him. God please you can't take
him away from us. Our kids need him. I
need him. I continue to cry on zipho
shoulder and he comforts me.

" we are here. " zipho gets out and I follow

him and I run to the hospital. " luh come! " I
follow mbuysiselo as we get in the elevator
and it takes us to the 5th floor. I'm pacing
inside I feel like I'm about to lose my mind.
The doors open and I see sbu and Percy
and their clothes are bloody.
" where is he? what happened to him sbu?
"

" Sir? Has Mrs gumede arrived? We need

to operate now. Please call her if you must!
" the doctor shouts.

" I'm here please tell me he's going to be

okay? " I say choking up.

" Mrs gumede please sign this it states that

you are giving us permission to operate and
save his live and should anything happen
you will not hold the hospital liable but I
assure you Mrs gumede we will do our
absolute best to save his life." I sign the
papers. They will do their best to save his
life? How hurt is mbuso?
" doctor please how bad is it? "

" when he got into an accident he hit his

head hard there's a swelling on his brain
and we are concerned about his spinal cord
cause the way he was found it doesn't look
good but we'll know for sure how bad
everything is when he's out of surgery. "
she quickly explains then runs through the
theatre doors. My hearts sinks into my
stomach and my world shatters.

Another doctor comes in and looks at us.

" has the family of Mabutho mthanti

arrived? "

" yes doctor that’s me. I’m his oldest

brother. "
" your brother sustained a head injury minor
injuries but it doesn't look bad. He is doing
his C.T scan right now and we'll do a full
body one to see if he doesn't have internal
injuries."

" ok doctor thank you. " they shake hands.

" Sir you might want to check on those

injuries. " the doctor says to zipho.
" I’m fine. " he says then takes my hand and
leads me to sit down. I cover my face and
cry.

" what happened bhuti sbu Percy? " zipho

asks them.
" mbuso was in the car with mabutho that
girl and themba. Themba was the one
driving and we were following them behind
when we saw the car go straight to the
other one and they collided and it was bad
luh. I'm sorry. " sbu apologizes.

" No it's all my fault...." I look at zipho and

shake my head. " yes sis luh. If I had been
home like how he was begging me then
none of this would have happened!. He
would be fine but I didn't listen to him and
look what happened now! "

" zipho I asked mbuso to let this thing go

with themba and you heard him yourself.
You know he does what he wants to do so
don't blame yourself. "

" but still? "

" nothing zipho. It's not your fault." Damn
you mbuso! You should have listened to
me.

" I should have been with him in the car! "

Sbu sitting down on the floor head on his
knees.

" I told the boss to kill them both but he said

no he's letting them go and look what
happened. "

" shut the fuck up fool! " mbuyiselo says to

Percy.

" where is themba and the girl? " I ask

them.
" they are here in the hospital. I have
someone watching them. " sbu tell me.

" that mother fucker better not escape."

mbuyi says

" are they hurt too? " I ask sbu.

" minor injuries. " I nod. They all have minor

injuries but my husband is the one who got
hurt the most. What does this all mean?.

Mbuso told me about the dark cloud the old

woman told him it is following him and I
guess she was talking about this. Mbuso
has hurt and killed a lot of people and
maybe they are now back to collect from
him. Most of those he killed is because of
me. He killed people to protect me and
make sure that no one ever bothers me
again but what I have brought into his life?
Bad things. He has been saving me the
moment he met me and now he might die
because of me.

" why do bad things always happen to me?.

I only get happy for a few moments then
something happens and it takes all of that
away. Why can't I be happy and enjoy my
marriage like most women do without
having to look over my shoulder every
damn time! I'm tired zipho I'm tired! " he
pulls me to his arms and I cry.
CHAPTER 69

LUNGI.
" I have to call everyone and let them know
what has happened. " zipho is even struggling to
talk.
" I called.....them scelo sims and your brother
will land on the roof top of the hospital. They
will soon be here. I'm sure they already told
your parents and luh's family. " sbu is still
sitting down lumka is rubbing my back sitting
next to me and zipho. Mbuyiselo is pacing up
and down. At least he doesn't have to worry
cause his brother is fine.
" Mbuyiselo have you called your family and let
them know? "
" Oh God thank you luh I have forgotten. Let
me call them. " I want my dad I want my
brother I wish sims and my aunt were here but I
really want my husband right now. I want him
to hold me and tell me that everything is going
to be okay. He will fix it like he always does.
We wait for what feels like hours and hours I
have no idea what time it is cause my mind is
not here. I am thinking about my kids. The
doctor comes out and we all stand up. Zipho
takes my hand and we thread our hands
together. This is not just holding hands. This is I
am here for you and we as family will face this
together. Please God let it be good news. I beg
you. She stands just a few feet away from me.
Sbu stands on my other side and I am thankful
for all of them.
" Mrs Gumede. I don't know how to tell you this
but your husband lost consciousness during
surgery and we had to resuscitate him three
times..." a sob escapes me. How could mbuso
think of leaving me on this earth?. How the hell
does he think I am going to be able to live my
life without him?. "…we were able to do that
and finished surgery. We also had to operate his
spinal cord because two of his vertebra bones
had shifted from the spinal column...." tears
continue to stream down my face. This doctor is
actually telling me that it's a possibility that my
husband might be paralysed.
"…..so we will see when he wakes up if there's
any damage but on our side we did our best to
save his life and we will continue to do that. It's
all up to him now."
" Can I see him? "
" He has been moved to I.C.U and the next 48
hours are crucial. Mrs gumede physically he
doesn't look good. I will give you only a few
minutes with him." I nod. I look at zipho and he
nods.
" You can do this. " He says. I follow the doctor
and they take me to some room and they make
me wear scrubs cover my head and hands. She
leads me to his and opens the door.
" I will lightly tap on the door when it's time. "
" thank you doc." She closes the door and I just
stand there and watch my husband laying down.
My legs my body everything in me feels heavy
as I take each step towards him until I stop on
his bed. His head is swollen his face is badly
bruised and I can't see his eyes. His beard has
been shaved cause there's a bandage that goes
under his chin to his head. I don't want to
believe this is my husband but I know it's really
him. I take his huge hand it's so cold. It doesn't
have his warmth the one he always does when
he touches me. I bend over and kiss his cold
lips.
" I need you to fight and come back to us. I need
you your kids need you and the whole family
needs you mbuso. I can't do this life thing alone
without you so please my husband fight and
make sure you win whatever war you're facing
where you are right now!. Don't let this dark
cloud or whatever darkness that was or is
following you take away from us. I know you
will fight tooth and nail to come back cause
your stubborn and you’ll drive them crazy until
they send you back to me and you better start
now my husband cause I am a mess! . I love you
Phakathwayo please come back to me. " the
doctor taps on the door and I know my time is
up.
" I will be right here waiting for you to wake up.
I love you myeniwami. " I kiss him again. I look
at his hand and notice that his ring is not on his
finger. I leave closing the door behind me.
" Doctor we are alone now so please tell me
everything. I need to know everything so I can
prepare myself and my kids. " she looks at me
with pity and it's the last thing I need right now.
" It is bad mrs gumede I'm not going to lie to
you. I don't know how your husband survived
cause he was suppose to have died in that
acciident." she takes a deep breath and takes my
hand in hers. " I don't know if you believe in
traditional things but if you do? You should
thank your ancestors because they saved his life
and if you don’t thank God that he saved him
from leaving this earth. Not many people
survive the type of accident they had and he was
the only one who got injured. Your husband
might slip in a coma have amnesia if or when he
wakes up and there's a very big possibility that
he might be paralysed. It's either from neck
down or waist down. " I close my eyes and take
a deep breath.
" ok ok. So....I...uhm. Uh where's my husband's
ring cause it's not on his finger?. "
" I'll go get his things You can use that room to
take off those scrubs. I'll be back. " I go to
another empty room and take off the scrubs then
sit on bed. When my husband wakes up and god
forbids it happens that he is paralysed he is
going to lose it. He is not going to be able to
handle it. Mbuso is a proud man who does
things for himself the way he wants without
asking for help from anyone and if something
like that happens?. It is going to be the most
hard and challenging time for him and us. I pray
to god that it doesn't happen.
The doctor comes back and gives me his things
inside a plastic bag. I open it and search for his
ring and find it. I take my diamond necklace off
one of the many he bought me and put his ring
on it and around neck where it will be safe and
until he is out of the ICU. There's also his wallet
there and watch. I look for my bag then
remember its with lumka.
" Can I just lay here for a minute? "
" unfortunately you can't cause this is the ICU
floor but I can take you to another and no one
will disturb you. "
" thank you but I don’t want to be far away from
him. "
" you'll be in a room under the one he's
in." somehow that gives me some comfort. we
leave get in the elevator one floor down then she
takes me to the room. The good thing about
private hospitals is their beds and services are
good. " take your time. I'll let your family know
you are okay. You just need some time alone."
" when can I move him out of this hospital? "
" Mrs gumede I don't advise you to do that and
move him to a public hospital in his kind of
condition cause his case is very serious. " I
shake my head.
" no not public hospital doc. We....we have a
home in durban We live there and I.....I want
him close to home. So...our kids...he..."
" mrs gumede please calm down. We don't want
to admit you too. " I lay down on the bed break
down and cry.

BONGA.
The helicopter lands on the roof top and I just
want to run out of here so I can see what is
going on with my brother. We have no idea if he
is alive or dead. God what happened brother?!.
Sbu's brother is a licensed pilot and he tried to
fly us here as fast as he can and the law would
allow and we get out as soon he tells us. I take
out my phone and call sbu.
" where are you? "
" fifth floor. " we get in the elevator and it takes
us to the fifth floor.
The doors open and there are people there but
the first person I see is my brother. His face is a
mess like he was in a fight with lions.
" what happened to you?! " he looks at me. He
walks to me and I pull him to my chest and my
little brother cries. Zipho never cries he has this
I don't give a fuck attitude and it is what it is but
him breaking down like this kills. me.
" It's my fault! its my fault! " he keeps saying
that. I look at sbu and he's on the floor hands
over his head clothes bloody so as Percy.
" It's okay ntwana don't blame yourself. "
" no you don’t understand!." he says between
sobs
" Zipho not now. Where's luh?."
" she left with the doctor to go and see
mbuso...."
" but she's been gone for a while now."
" sbu you let my sister leave another doctor
alone? man you know what happened the last
tine she left with a doctor? "
Scelo is right. Luh could be here or anywhere
right now. Mbuso has enemies and if word gets
out that he’s injured and in the hospital? He
won’t be safe. Another guys comes out and he
looks like mbuyiselo and he has scratch marks
on his face and his head is covered with a
medium size bandage.
“ Uhm guys this is mbuso brother Bonga his
wife Simphiwe and luh's brother scelo and my
older brother Skhumbuzo. . Guys this is
mbuyiselo his niece lumka and his brother
Mabutho who was in the car with mbuso and
themba.” We shake hands had Mabutho
explains what happened in the car.
“ where is themba and that little….” I ask them.
“ Mnguni not now please…” I look at her. She
shakes her head.
Luh walks out the fire escape door. Sims runs to
her and she cries in her arms. They both sniff
and man seeing the two of them like that is quiet
emotional.
“ Are they in this hospital too?.”
“ They are I have people watching them.” I look
at Percy.
“ Is my dad aunt or brother here
too…I Simphiwe…he might…not walk again ”
Oh God don’t let it to be true. Her cries are
breaking my heart. I hate seeing her like that
and I never want Sims to feel what is happening
to luh. Ever. Scelo walks to her and luh false
apart. Scelo pulls her to a seat and holds her. We
all watch her cry until she sniffs on her brother’s
chest.
The doctor comes through the door towards us.
“ I’m sorry I didn’t introduce myself earlier but
I’m doctor Molefe and me gumede is my
patient. As I have explained earlier but I will
explain again… .. ” she looks behind us and I
see my dad and mom walking in holding hands.
My wife looks at me and I know she’s calming
me down and right now it’s all about my brother
and his wife. Not us and our fights. Luh's neck
and her whole face is red. Her eyes are puffy
and you can see she’s been crying real hard.
“….. As I was saying……” the doctor stops
talking again. Luh’s dad walks in with another
woman frank and luh's aunt. He shakes my
mom’s hand then goes to my dad they hug and
exchange hush words for a while. He nods at
sbu and his brother then us and goes to luh. He
kisses her head.
“ It’s okay baby. Your other dad is coming too
with Sims mom and your aunt is here.” Great
my mother in law is coming too. We all get
silent watch a silently crying luh. Her aunt takes
scelo space and she cries again.
“ It’s okay baby it’s okay. Mbuso is a strong
man and he will pull through.” I look at my
mom and she’s wiping her tears and I so want to
comfort her but my heart won’t let me. Zipho is
looking at her too and I know he’s thinking the
same thing. Her head is on my dad’s chest
who’s brushing her back. Frank comes and we
hug right. I know he’s hurt like the rest of us.
“ Boss you were saying?. ” Percy breaks the
silence. Sometimes his big mouth is needed.
Like now.
“ I want you to go change make sure that
themba and that girl don’t leave the hospital
until we find a house to accommodate all of us.
”
“ Themba is here?!” frank asks. Frank is a man
of few words. He speaks only when spoken to
and when he does decide to talk. You have to be
afraid.
“ Themba is the one that caused the accident. He
didn’t know we were behind the seat and long
story short when he saw us he freaked. Mbuso
asked him to get off the road and stop the car
but he refused. We knew what he was about to
do and we tried to stop him but he was too fast.
Mbusi tried to take the wheel but he bit him and
I tried to stop him too from heading straight to
the direction of the other car but then… . ” he
looks at the doctor then us and we understand
what he’s leaving behind. “… then he said we
are all going to die and he swerved hit another
car and it kept rolling until we lost
consciousness. ” Themba back is going to pay!.
“ Which room? ” Franks asks sbu.
“ 2nd floor number 20. Both of them. ” he leaves
and Percy follows him.
“ It’s my… . ”
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">“ zipho shut up!. ” dad looks at us
and he frowns.
“ Uhm I guess you’re all family of Mrs and
Mrs gumede. ” she says. “…..Mr gumede
injuries are very bad he’s ICU right now and
we are monitoring very close cause a
patient who had his kind of injuries wasn’t
suppose to be alive but by gods grace and
his ancestors he is alive. We managed to
operate and close the wound on his brain
and the swelling went down a little but what
we are most worried about is his spinal
cord. You see family the Vertebrae are the
33 individual interlocking bones that form
the spinal column. Each vertebra has three
main functional components: the vertebral
body for load-bearing the vertebral arch to
protect the spinal cord and transverse
processes for ligament attachment.” She
explains.
“ Judging by the way he was found and how
this gentleman here is explaining it makes
sense as to why he was injured like that. He
was not wearing the his seat belt and when
the cars collided his back the vertebral arch
was the one that got injured the hardest.
The one that protects the spinal cord from
any hard. We operated on him and tried our
very best to align his vertebra bones
together but we will know for sure if he is
paralyzed or not. We did our best and right
now it’s up to God your ancestors and him.”
“ Thank you doctor. Can I see his CT scan
results?. ”
“ Uhmmm. ”
“ I am his father and retired doctor.. I want
to see all of my sons resuk6 if that’s not a
problem. You can ask your supervisor for
permission. ”
“ Yes doctor Gumede. Please come with
me. I need you to take Mrs Gumede home.
She needs some rest. ” luh is not going to
leave the hospital. I look at my wife.
“ When can he moved?. ”
“ Mrs Gumede had asked me the same
question and I understand but I advises her
that right now we can not afford to move
him until we know for sure how much
damage is done cause lifting him up and
down can cause more damage. So for now
Mr Gumede is not leaving this hospital until
I give a go ahead. ” She says then her and
my dad leave.
“ love? Please find two houses. One for luh
and the kids and the other for everyone
else cause it looks lie we are going to be
here for a while.”
“ Come and help me. ” she says to mbuyi's
niece. She goes to her and they stand far
away from us.. My wife is smart. She knows
we want to talk and we don’t want her to
hear. Even mapholoba's woman and lucky
for us she follows sims too. Good. We don’t
know her or trust her.
The elevator opens and one man and
women come out. Great the cops.
“ we are looking for a Mr Themba Nyembe.
We were told he was in this floor. He was
brought in with other three people who were
in an accident?. ” we all look at each other.
“ He is not here. We don’t know where he
is. ” Mabutho says.
“ Lieutenant Colonel Mthanti sir. ” they
salute him he nods. They are shocked.
“ Are you okay Sir?. ” they ask him.
“ We don’t know the man you’re looking for.
He is not here. But we will be on the look
out for him.” He tells them.
“ was sir in an accident?. ”
“ We were involved in a hijacking and one
of my friends here is righting for his life. I
know I don’t have to tell you how to do your
jobs lady and gentleman. I hope the culprits
will be found. ”
“ Sir yes sir. We will give you and your
family some privacy. ” they get in the
elevator and leave.
“ you do know they are going to check your
story right?.” Sbu tells him finally getting off
from the floor..
“ don’t worry man. They wont know we
were in the car with him. I was sorting it out.
”
“ thanks man. ” I say he nods. I need to talk
to luh but I’m scared ause I don’t know
what to say to her. I walk to her and squat.
She has her head on her aunts lap. I take a
deep breath and put my hand on her back.
“ luh?.... ” she shakes her head. “… …
khanyo?..... ” her shoulders shake.
“ Can we talk. Just the two of us?. ”
“ I asked him.” She says. At first I don’t
know her but she continues. “ I told him to
come to me and leave Themba alone but…
. He.. Said he will see us in a few minutes
and he hanged up. I… Why didn’t he listen
to me?. ” She lifts her chest from her aunts
lap and I stand up when she stands up.
“ mbuso listens to you luh more than
anyone here. You know that. ”
“ Then why didn’t he just let it go!. ”
“ sis luh!. ”
“ Shut up zipho! ” she shouts at him. Luh
never raises her voice at anyone. No matter
how angry she is.
“ bonga…. ” she looks at me with her puffed
teary eyes and I want to take away all this
pain from here. “ what am I going to do
without him. I won’t live without my husband
I won’t.”
“ and you won’t live without cause he’s not
going to die!. ”
“ he’s in ICU bonga! He might be paralysed
and he might have amnesia. That’s what
the doctor told me. He could wake up and
not remember me and our kids!. ”
“ We will find the best doctor there is and
get him the best help money an buy. ”
“ Am I cursed bonga?..... ” oh luh no!. “ am I
cursed baba? Nginebhadi baba? ” my God!.
Her dad shakes his head but you an see
her words really hurt him. They hurt me too.
“ Why would you think that luh kababa? ”
we look at the direction of the voice and it’s
uncle Victor. Luh looks up and shakes her
head. He comes and stands next to us. I
take a step back.
“ because…how many people do we know
who have had to go through want I went
through. It’s been one thing after another
and I don’t get a break baba I don’t!. Ever
since mouse came I not my life the poor
guy has been dodging bullets bombs threat
and God knows what because if me. He
has been saving my life ever since he met
me. He was fine before I came into his life
and if I wasn’t in his life he wouldn’t be lying
there right now!. I have brought my bad luck
into his life!.”
“ that’s not true luh and you know it!. ” sbu
says defeated. “ You’re the reason must is
the man he is now. We all know it and he
wouldn’t have been one had you not been
there in his life. He lives and breathes you.
You’re everything to him and you know he
would die protecting you from anyone or
any harm. You have brought nothing but
love happiness and peace in his life. You
came into his life and changed it. You
saved his life luh in ways you wouldn’t know
but I would cause I have known him since
we we’re in university. You say he’s the one
that’s always saving you right? then right
now. You have to be the one that saves
again. ”
“ I can’t. How could I when everything that
happened lead him to be here. He’s here
cause he has been saving me but doing all
of that he… . ”
“ we both know that what happened today
was going to happen sometime soon or
later khanyo but it happened now and we
have to deal with it.” Luh shakes her head
furiously.
“ instead of happening to me it happened to
him. Why was it following him and not me. ”
what is my dad and luh talking about. What
did must tell them?. The guys and I look at
each other. No one knows a thing.
“ Because it was supposed to happen
khanyo. All of this is not your fault. It’s all ok
him. ” he looks at my mom and she looks
down.
“ Lungile you are not cursed mntanami. Bad
things do happened to good people but that
doesn’t mean when they happen that you
are cursed unamashwa or isichitho
mntanami you don’t.” her dad says.
“ Why can’t I enjoy my marriage and worry
about why my husband didn’t come home
instead of worrying about who’s coming
after me too whom was I promised to and
who wants me dead cause they didn’t get
what they were promised.”
“ everything has it’s time and place luh
kababa. Sometimes you go through
unimaginable things like the ones you went
through. One day you’ll look back and ask
yourself how did I pull through?. How did I
face all the storms that to leave with me?
Then you will look to your right and see
your husband. You will look to your left and
see all of us and then you will look in front
of you and see your children. You will do
that but not look behind you cause what
has happened happened and it passed. It
can no longer hurt you unless you allow it to
do that. So you understand me?. ” wow that
was deep.
Victor asks her and she nods sobbing. He
comforts her my mother in law is coming
consoling her daughter. Luh’s aunt is also
crying and scelo is comforting her. Her dad
is liking at his down broken.
“ Qwabe what is going on?. ”
“ zipho what happened to you?. ” my dad
asks zipho
“ we can’t talk about it here baba. ” zipho
says.
The elevator doors open again and I think I
hate that elevator cause people won’t stop
coming in. I hope it’s no one we don’t know.
A man and a woman come in. Mbuyiselo
meets them half way. I look at mabutho and
he shakes his head.
“ uhm everyone. This is our father Fanele
Zikalala and our other mother Jessica
Zikalala. Dad this is the Ngcobo family
and… . The Gumede family. ” mabutho
walks and stands next to me. Ok what is
going on?. Even luh looks up. “ This is
Zipho Gumede that’s his other brother
Sbongakonke Gumede.” Mbuyiselo goes to
luh takes her hand. They walk until they
stand in front of his dad. “ This is lungile
nokukhanya Gumede. That is her father in
law Qwabe Gumede and… .. ” I see their
dad taking a step back like he is shocked.
Sicelo goes to his sister and pulls her to
him then behind her like he’s protecting her.
“ why am I here Mbuyiselo? Mabutho? ” our
dads stand up. Ok why does it feel like a
fight is going to break out in here. Their dad
is fuming. He is fucken mad.
“ you are here cause I was in an accident
with bonga and zipho brother. Mbuso
Gumede baba. ” he shakes his head.
“ Where is he? ”
“ I don’t know who you are but you will not
see my son!.”
“ I need to see him!. ”
“ Why!.” My dad asks him. I also want to
know. “ you want to kill him!. ”
“ I won’t kill him but I have to see him!. ”
“ not until you tell me why!. ”
“ I need to sure if it’s him. ”
“ he is my son and it is him. ” they are now
facing each other. Both mad.
“ Let me go and see him that’s all I’m
asking!. ”
“ it is my husband in there. I have his ring
that I made specifically for him. Lumka an
you give me my phone please? ” she opens
luh’s bag and gives her her phone. Luh
takes it taps some buttons then shows
mabutho’s dad a picture of her and mbuso.
His pictures. He looks at luh speechless
and shocked. His eyes gets misty.
“ This is mbuso? Your husband?. ”
“ yes he is. We have twin boys. Here they
are. ” she shows him and we see his tears
falling down his face. He walks and takes a
seat looking at the twins.
“ what is going on here?. ” I ask mabutho.
“ you will know soon. ”
“ Where… . Where is sebenzile?. ” Oh my
god!.
CHAPTER 70

BONGA.

“ Where is sebenzile?.” My god. He’s asking

about our mom?.
“ There she is. What’s going on bab'
uZikalala?.” I point at our mother and she looks
scared.
My mother hides behind my dad. Why is she
hiding herself and who is this man?. I look at
mabutho and he’s still shaking his head.
“ For the love of God what the hell is going on
here?!.”
“ Stop hiding behind your husband dear sister!.
” my mouth hangs open. Everyone gasps.
“ What?. She’s your sister and… ”
“ I’m your uncle. Your mother’s brother. We all
came out of the same womb.” He’s looking at
our mother disgusted.
“ Baba? Ma?! Is this true?. ”
My father shifts and faces my mother who’s
looking down.
“ look at me sebenzile!.” My dad says with a
firm voice. My mom cries.
“ for once in your life just face us and tell us the
truth ma!.” Zipho almost yells.
“ This is not the place to be talking about all of
this here.” Luh says sitting down.
“ she’s right. Baby did you manage to find a
house?.”
“ I managed to find a 5 bedroom house only. I’ll
keep looking.”
“ it’s fine baby. Let’s all leave.”
“ I’m staying. I’m not leaving him here alone. I
won’t.”.
“ Luh please you need to rest.”
“ I can’t bonga I can’t. He’s in ICU don’t you
get it?!. What if I leave and he dies huh?. What
if he wakes up and I’m not there? No!.”
Sbu gets up and walks to her.
“ I will stay with him luh. If anything happens
I’ll call you. Please go and get some rest.”
“ like how you did when he got into an
accident?.” Sbu heavens a sigh.
“ I was scared to call luh and tell you your
husband has been in an accident. I didn’t know
how to tell you.” Luh cries.
“ I’m sorry sbu I’m scared. I really am.” He
clasps her tightly in his arms and cradles her
head.
“ I’m sorry. I should have stopped him. I’m
really sorry luh.” He keeps apologizing to her.
“ please go and get some rest even if it’s just
three hours then come back.” He pleads with
her.
“ I won’t be able to sleep I know I won’t.”
She is right. There’s no way she is going to be
able to sleep in this kind of situation. I have to
find the doctor and ask her to sedate luh.
I see her going out of some room and I walk to
her.
“ Doc?.”
“ Yes sir. What can I help you with?.”
“ I’m worried about my sister in law luh. Can
you maybe give her something to make her
sleep just for a few hours?.”
“ I’m worried about her too. Is she pregnant?”
“ Uhmm I don’t know.” I doubt she is
“ ok I’ll come and give her something that
won’t harm her in any way.”
“ thanks doc.” I walk back and luh is still
crying. The doctor comes back and walks to luh.
“ Mrs gumede please drink this it will calm your
nerves down.”
“ you want to drug me so I can sleep right?. I’m
not drinking that thing!.”
“ doctor give it to me. I’ll make sure she drinks
them.” The doctor nods and gives sims a glass
of water and the pills.
“ I know you’re not going to leave so please
family I suggest you use the conference room
it’s that last door to your right.”
“ thank you doctor.” She nods and leaves.
“ ok let’s go to the conference room.”
“ I’ll stay behind and watch here.” Frank says.
“ I’ll stay too.” Sbu’s brother Skhumbuzo says.
“ Lumka stay here nana.”
“ yes uncle mabutho.”
“ I’ll stay behind too.” Ngcobo's woman says.
He nods.
We go to the conference room.
“ tell us the truth ma cause it seems as if
everything that is happening is your fault!. Had
you not stole mbuso and killed his mother all of
this wouldn’t be happening. This is all your
fault!. I swear to God if anything happens to my
brother I’ll kill you myself!...”
“ Bonga don’t talk to your mother like that!.”
My dad says and I laugh.
“ I can’t believe you!. You come here with her
holding hands like all of this is not her fault?!.
We are all here because of the person she stole.
She’s the one who started this whole thing
because of her greedy heart!. If you have
forgiven her for killing the woman you said was
your soulmate and your other son then that’s
fine. That’s on you baba but don’t expect us to
forgive her as well!.” She wails.
“ you should be happy that mbuso is lying there
and probably will die. You killed his brother
and mother and now you want him to die as well
so you won’t feel guilty about what you did
isn’t it mother??!. Isn’t it?!.” Zipho accuses her.
“ I’m sorry but he’s my son and I love him. I
don’t want him to die zipho how could you say
that?.”
“ You have lied to us since we were born
mother and today we find out that we have an
uncle we never knew existed but you knew
right?. You always made sure that we never
knew anyone from our maternal side because
you knew that the truth will come out about who
you really are!. Are you even our mother? Did
you actually give birth to us or maybe you also
stole us from our mother’s as well and killed
them? Are we your children?. ” zipho asks her
and she wails and sits down covering her face.
“ No!. You don’t get to hide your face like how
you have been doing for all these years. You
will face us and hear what we really think of
you!. Baba how could you not know that we
have an uncle?.”
“ I didn’t know. Your mother and I… . I mean
owami said she was an only child and I believed
her.” He looks so utterly broken.
“ my sisters didn’t know because I was living
with my other uncle here in Joburg. I’m the first
born. I thought my uncle was my dad he was
just my uncle. He took me in because our mom
and dad were working far away from home and
they would struggle to find someone to look
after me when they are at work and so my
grandmother demanded that they give me to her
so she can look after me. My uncle couldn’t
have kids so he took me to live with then when I
was 4 years old and our parents didn’t have a
problem with that. I found out that I wasn’t
theirs when I was 22 and my sister was 19 when
my grandmother told me the truth and when I
first met her.” Why are our families so full of
lies and secrets.
“ I didn’t know my sister was a twin. I thought it
was just the two of us. I knew my sister was
seeing a boy from not around the village but
from another town. One day I came home when
I found was sister pregnant I think she was eight
or close to nine months and our grandmother
was heartbroken then one day I saw wami
heading into the forest and I thought she was
going to see her boyfriend. I followed her and
what I saw shocked me. Wami was sitting with
a woman who looked exactly like her and I
couldn’t believe it. I confronted them and
sebenzile told me the whole truth about how our
paternal grandmother raises her. I told her to
come home with us so we can tell our uncle and
grandmother who she is but she refused and said
she’s going home the next day to tell them that
she had found her maternal family. She said she
will come back next week and then we would
tell the whole family about her.”
serif">“ I didn’t know my sister was a twin. I

week and then we would tell the whole
family about her.”
He takes a deep breath and looks at her.
She’s sitting across from him and they are
facing each other. My mom has stopped
crying and hiccups are the sounds coming
out of her mouth. Our uncle continues.
“ But then I received a call the next day and
they told me I had found the job I had
applied for in Mpumalanga and I had to
leave. After two weeks in Mpumalanga I get
a call from work and they are telling me my
grandmother’s house has been burned
down. Dad and I the uncle who raised me
told his brother to sell everything that day
and then they must come at Mpumalanga
with Wami when she’s been discharged. I
had been working the night shift when I got
the call and the next morning they let us
know that Wami was found in the river with
her son and when they got to the hospital
they told them that Wami had given birth to
twin boys but there was only one twin with
Wami and we had no idea what happened
to the other twin.”
“ they came to Ermelo the next day and
Wami was distraught. She was crying
hysterically and we told everyone about
sebenzile and our grandmother didn’t take it
well. The only thing she kept asking why
Wami hid it why I didn’t tell her and why
didn’t sebenzile not tell the whole family but
what most broke her is why her daughter
decided to hide the fact that she had given
birth to twins. She was never the same after
that she began getting sick and then died
after three months. She died in her sleep.”
Oh my god!.
“ What happened to Wami and where’s my
other son?.”
“ firstly how the hell did you not see that
sebenzile wasn’t the woman you loved?.
Did she not feel different around you?.”
Uncle asks.
“ I hadn’t seen her in months and when I did
I thought the pregnancy had changed her.
Sebenzile said the whole family changed
after they found out she was pregnant out
of wedlock. She took mbuso and ran away
with him. I didn’t know that the woman I
was living with my wife for over 45 years
has been lying to all of us. We wouldn’t
have known had lungi hadn’t been
kidnapped by her doctor who was working
with the woman who knew sebenzile's
secret. She would have taken the secret to
her grave.” My dad explains
“ I begged you sebenzile. I begged you to
come home with us but you didn’t want to
cause you knew that you wanted to kill your
sister and take over her life. You would
have received the love we grew around
with. It hurts me when you told us how our
paternal grandmother treated you because I
knew our grandmother was nothing like
that. You would have been loved
unconditionally and had gotten everything
you have ever wanted in your life but you
rejected all of that and chose jealously over
your sister sebenzile… . ” he tears up.
“ she loved you very much and you
betrayed her. You stole her son sebenzile
while you could have had yours. She cried
when she told us what you did to her and
she begged you not to kill her. Did you tell
them the truth what you did sebenzile?. The
whole truth and not what you wanted them
to believe?.”
My blood runs cold cause I just know. I can
feel it in my bones that my mother has been
feeding all of lies. What she said happened
was a damn lie!. My dad stands and looks
at her. She stands too and takes steps
away from my father. The whole conference
room is silent. Intense and we are just
dreading what uncle is going to say.
“ she said she tempered with the car that
was suppose to pick up Wami cause she
wanted to spend some time with her. She
convinced her that they should walk home
and they took a short cut and passed
through the forest by the river. It had been
raining the day before and so Wami slipped
and fell in the river with my other son. She
was scared to tell everyone what happened
and so she decided to ran away and live as
owami Wami. ”
“ for once in your life just tell them truth
sebenzile. They deserve that much.” Much
uncle says.
She takes a deep breath looks at sims lungi
her kids and our dad. She wipes her tears.
“ I was young stupid and I let jealousy for
my sister cloud my judgement and take
over my life. I regret what I did that day
every time I think about it and I wish I can
go back and change everything. I realised
how much I’veruined everyone’s lives and I
am so sorry. I never wanted to hurt anyone.
I just wanted to feel the love khanyo
received. That’s all I ever wanted.”
“ Mom just tell us what you did. The truth
this time.”
“ I knew Qwabe was going to come back
after khanyo had given birth and so this
plan just came to me and once I thought
about living the life she’s living I couldn’t
stop myself. When we were leaving the
hospital she was in pain. She wanted to go
back and I couldn’t have that. I convinced
her that we will make it home but she
wanted to go back and I was losing my
patience so I told her that Qwabe was
waiting for her in the forest because he was
scared that her family will see him. She
agreed and we walked. I was carrying
mbuso on my back and the other baby was
on my arms. When we were close to the
river when we stopped walking.”
She takes a deep breath.
“ she kept calling qwabe's name and that’s
when I told her he’s not here or even
coming. She wanted to go home and I told
her we had to talk about something first. I…
I… ” she looks at my dad. “ I told her we
had to come up with a plan to convince
Qwabe that he slept with both of us and got
us pregnant but she refused. She wouldn’t
hear it and I tried to explain to her that we
will both win if we say we played him and
got us pregnant at the same time he
wouldn’t have any other choice to marry the
both of us cause he loved us and he would
take care of us and no one will ever
separate us cause we will always be
together. She started crying and wanted her
children back. Why couldn’t she understand
that we were both going to be happy and
get what we both want?. ”
I feel sick to my stomach. How sick and
twisted is my mother?. Who the fuck thinks
of something so twisted like that?.
“ she demanded her kids back and I
wouldn’t give them to her. This plan was
perfect and I knew it was going to work
but… she wouldn’t stop crying and she was
making the kids cry too. I told her to stop
but she didn’t. I took this stick and hit her
with it. I wanted her to stop crying that’s all
but she took the baby that was on my arms
and demanded her other baby. I refused
but we fought and I pushed her and she
almost fell down. I tried to take the baby
away from her again but she wouldn’t let
me take them. She put the baby down and
tried to take mbuso away from me but I was
not going to let her take him cause he was
mine. I had decided that mbuso was going
to be my baby. We fought for mbuso but I
was stronger than her and she was weak.
She fell and I took the other baby…”
“ Stop calling him the other baby. His name
is busani ma. Busani!.” Luh says very
angry.
“ I took busani and went close to the river
with him. She screamed for mercy. I asked
her if she will agree to the plan but she still
refused. I pretended to throw busani in the
river and khanyo fell to her knees. She
begged me not to throw her son and rather
kill her than her children. I told her she had
only one choice to make. It’s either she
agrees or she dies and she agreed but I
knew she was lying so I threw busani in the
river and she jumped in there with him.”
“ oh my God how could you mah?!. ” I ask
her shocked to my core like she has just
punched my guts so hard.
“ you witch!. You fucken witch!. I’m going to
kill you! You are dead!.” Dad says crying
and pulls out his gun and points it to my
mom but mapholoba Victor and our uncle
quickly run to him and mapholoba takes the
gun away from him and they stop him from
reaching our mother and strangle her do
death.
Luh is a crying mess zipho is looking at our
mother like he’s a statue my wife looks like
she wants to kill my mother and I’m thinking
of helping her. Everyone in here is gob
smacked!. I’m sure my mother in law is
thinking what kind of family has she gotten
her daughter married to. I am so ashamed
of the things my mother has done.
“ You and my ex wife sebenzile would get
along like house on fire! You are wicked
and you’ll burn in hell!.” Her brother says.
“ I thought my mother was bad but you
aunty!.” Mbuyiselo tells her looking hurt.
“ take her away from here!. Get her out
before I kill her!.” I go to her take her hand
and drag her away. We step out of the
conference room with zipho and sbu
following us.
“ I want you to leave South Africa and never
come back. You will never set your foot in
here ever again!.” She wails.
“ where do you want me to go bonga?. I
can’t leave!. My whole family is here!.”
“ You have no family here sebenzile. No
one here gives a damn about you!. Now do
us all a favour and just leave!.”
“ I made a mistake please forgive me!.”
“ No ma. What you did was planned to the
T. You lied to us and caused us so much
pain and grief. We don’t need you in our
lives. If you want to live ma you will leave
South africa and never come back. The
only thing we would do is come and fetch
your body the day you die.”
“ please bantwana bani!. Have mercy on
me!. Where will I go?.”
“ mbuso was going to take you away from
here when he found his brother and mother.
He set everything up for you. A house car
money and everything you will need. You
will fly with my family’s private jet in three
hours.” Sbu takes out his phone.
“ I can’t believe I thought you were a really
good woman. I was happy that my sister
has a mother in law like you but now I’m
disgusted.” Sicelo says.
“ I’ll get my men to watch her.” Sbu says
typing furiously on his phone.
“ you are dead to me. Dead!.” Zipho says
with so much hatred. He turns and leaves.
She looks at him and falls apart. She wails
like my brother has just died.
“ I hope your life will be lonely and very
miserable. Mbuso didn’t have to do any of
that for you after what you have done to
him. You don’t deserve it. All of it!. If I ever
lay my eyes on you ever again? I’m going
to kill you!. Take her away!.”
I go back to the conference room. And my
dad is crying. He is literally crying.
“ malume?.” He looks at me.
“ is…..our other…..mother de…dead too
and our brother?.” My vison gets blurry and
I don’t stop the tears that are streaming
down my face.
“ she is alive. They both are.” The sobs that
broke out are enough to make any cry.
My legs give out and I slide down the wall
with my back and cry. I have never felt so
relived and broken at the same time.
“ Busani is coming. He will be here in the
morning.” Says another guy who is standing
on the door looking at me.

CHAPTER 71

LUNGI.

#NotEdited

I am so glad my husband is not here to hear

everything his mother… no. His aunt has said. I
know there are very wicked people in this world
but I never thought one of them was my so
called “ mother in law. ” and now they want to
take her away and not face the people she tried
to kill?. Hell no!. She has to see the faces of the
people she thought she killed. For years she has
gotten away with it but now it ends. She will
face them.
I am happy to know that mbuso's mother and his
brother are still alive. I know he’s going to be so
happy when he hears that. It makes me really
sad that he’s not going to be able to witness the
reunion between his parents and twin brother.
God let his mom and brother be very good
people because my husband deserves that. He
deserves to be happy and be with is mom and
twin brother that was taken away from him. I
still can’t believe sebenzile did that. My God
poor zipho and bonga is a mess.
“ Busani is coming. He will be here in the
morning.” I follow the sound of the voice that is
talking and it’s another man who looks like
Mabutho and mbusyiselo.
My head has been on sims mom lap and her
hand on my back brushing me has been
comforting me. She reminds me of the times I
would get sick and she and uncle Victor would
take care of me. Sims is blessed to have a
mother like her. Her mom knows we really
appreciate her.
I sit up and look at her. She wipes my tears and
palms my cheek. She looks sad and I’m sure
she’s shaken too about the things she heard. I
hope she doesn’t hold that against him cause as
fucked up as their mom is she raised strong
men.
“ your husband is going to be fine Luh. The
Almighty is watching over him and he is our
prayers. Have you prayed dear and asked God
for strength?. ”
“ I haven’t aunty. I don’t even know where to
start cause I am broken I feel weak and I am
scared.”
“ That is the best time to seek him and find
comfort. He always has the answers that we
seek lungi. Do not turn your back on him during
this difficult time. There’s a chapel here. Go and
talk to your God. I can come with you if that
would make you feel better.”
“ I would like that.” She pats my shoulder. I get
up and the commotion stops. Ok I wasn’t
expecting that.
“ uhm. I don’t think it’s okay to just let mah
sebenzile leave just like that without being
confronted by the people she wronged. She has
to hear how my mother in law’s life changed.” I
sit down.
“ She’s right. My mother can’t just walk away
like she did nothing wrong and we must pick up
the pieces? No!. She has to be here and watch
what happens!.” Bonga says.
I think bonga hates his mother now more than
all of us. The hate he has for her is pouring out
and I’m afraid he’s going to do something that
he will regret for the rest of his life.
“ Malume?.” Their uncle looks at me.
“ Is my mother in law coming too with busani?.
”
“ they are both coming.” Says that guy again. I
look at him and frown.
“ luh this is out last born brother uMthunzi.
Brother this is our makoti uLungile Gumede.
Our brother mbuso's wife.”
“ I’m sorry we all had to meet like this and I’m
sorry to about what happened to your
husband.”
“ Thank you.” I close my eyes cause I have this
headache that is aching at the back of my head. I
have been trying to ignore it but it’s getting
more intense .
“ mbusyiselo?.” He looks at me. “ you knew
who we were when we came into your house.
Why didn’t you let us know and when did you
find out?.” I see a ghost smile on his face.
“ when lumka was brought home and had my
men follow your husband’s guy and I found out
it was mbuso. I didn’t pay much attention to it
until. When we grew up or was just us four boys
and our little sister. We didn’t know that our
aunt was a twin so as busani. We found out a
year ago when we were all at home in Ermelo
and aunt told us that busani was having
problems and she thinks that it’s maybe related
to him being a twin. That’s when they told us
what happened to my aunt and busani. Dad tried
to find your father in law but somehow he
wouldn’t find anything. It was like someone or
something was blocking us from finding
him….”
“ I bet my mother had something to do with it!.
” zipho says. Sebenzile is never going to have a
relationship with her children. Ever!.
“….. and we thought that its either our aunt
killed mbuso or he ran away with him and lived
somewhere else. Never ever did we think she
went to mbuso and busani's dad.”
My father in law has his head burried on his
knees and I feel for him. I’m very worried about
his health even thiugh he’s a strong man but this
thing can knock even the strongest down and I
don’t know how he is going to get out this
whole mess. I’m not one person who holds
grudges or even hate people but sipho thuli and
now sebenzile is on the list of the people I most
hate.
“ my sister was too traumatized she cried
everyday for her son and…..then when busani
was four months old she started losing parts of
her memories. It was hard mshana it was very
hard so we hired a nanny and helper to look
after busani and my sister but my sister got
worse and she had to have special care. My
other uncle not the one who raised me took her
to this place where they deal with special classes
of trauma and she lived there. My ex wife at that
time was working and had no time to look after
kids. She hated that we had to take care of
busani and she told me to my face to take my
nephew to the orphanage cause he was
practically an orphan.” What is wrong with
these women?.
“ I refused cause we already had hired someone
to help with busani and she was amazing. She
took care of my household busani and mbuyi
and all the kids that came after them. My wife
the only true thing she did was get pregnant
dump the kids with me spend my money and
was never home then one day when mbuyi was
7 mabutho was 5 Linda was 4 and mthunzi was
only a year old when their came home and
served me with divorce papers. She took
everything she wanted the money cars and left
me with the kids. If it wasn’t for this beautiful
woman who first came to look after busani
wasn’t there?. I don’t know what I would have
done with all of them. She raised all of them.
She’s three mother.” He looks at his wife and
smiles. They have been through a lot.
“ our aunt started to get better when I think we
were 14 years old. Busani would always go and
visit her where she lived and she too would
come and visit home. She came back when we
were doing our standard 10 ( grade 12.) We
passed our matric and we went to study in the
UK at Oxford University. After I was done with
my studies I came home but busani stayed
behind and they live there but they do come and
visit home but last year they started visiting a lot
and that’s when we knew about everything.” He
takes a deep breath.
“ it was then that something clicked on my mind
so I began to investigate mbuso and it was hard.
Your husband is a very private man hell all of
you are and it was hard to find anything about
him. It was like he didn’t exist to some extent. I
tried to hack your Instagram account but hey
mbuso doesn’t play like that and I was
impressed. It took me a year and the last month
we have just passed to get any information but
still nothing and I wanted to help reunite the
families together and also help busani with
whatever that he is struggling with. I was
desperate and so I thought I was just going to
call him and ask him if he has a twin brother but
our ancestors must have my please cause I get a
call from mbuso asking for my help and then
when you arrived and retired to bed I took the
glass he was drinking from to test it for DNA
and it came back 100 percent match. They are
identical twins. I was waiting for when he came
back from your house to tell him we are the
family. His mother and brother are still alive.”
“ I just want mbuso to wake up so he can see
them. I want all of this to be over I want my
husband back.” I sob.
“ Have faith luh. Mbuso is a fighter and he is
going to wake up and come back to your and
your kids. Please drink this and get some sleep.”
“ I… . ”
“ Sis please drink them. The boys are coming in
the morning you don’t want them to see you like
this.” I burst into tears. The thought of my boys
growing without a father is very terrifying to
me. I nod.
“ please wake me up when the doctor comes and
if anything is happening to him scelo promise
me!.”
“ you know I would do anything for you even
wake mbuso up and bring him to you I would
that. Right now you need to sleep luh cause I
know you’re having a headache and it’s getting
worse. We can see some please sis take them. I
will wake you up should anything happen.” He
gives me a tight hug.
“ please make sure Sims is okay. She’s pregnant
and she doesn’t need all this stress. Take her to
the house she found with everyone else scelo
please then you come back and be here with me.
I need you bhuti wami.” I whisper to hjm
“ ok.”
“ Zipho listens to you so please take him with
you and ask someone to bring our backs from
mbuyiselo’s house so sbu and Percy can
change.”
“ It’s going to be okay luh.” I nod. He gives me
the pills I take them and drink. I feel my body
getting light and scelo holds me before my eyes
closed and it’s light out.

I’ve been walking and I don’t know where I’m

going but there’s this thing telling me that I
should keep going and not stop. I walk for
another 30 minutes or more until I see this
house that is burnt down. I enter the yard and
look around. The house doesn’t look like
someone lives in it but it feels like there are
people who live in the yard. Where am I?.
I walk around the house and see small fore that
is burning with logs and there’s an old metal
kettle that is shining so beautiful. The water is
burning cause I hear that sound. There’s a mat
on the floor and an old chair that looks ugly but
comfortable. The door to the rondavel is open
and I can hear someone humming a song. I walk
closer but the person comes out and it’s an old
woman I stop walking and stand next to the fire.
serif">She looks past me and I see an old
man coming and it looks like he is coming
from work to something. She smiles.
“ oh khanyo usebuyile umyeni wami.
Shesha ntombi umthele amanzi azogeza.”
She’s talking to me?. “ Haw yebo mzukulu
ngikhuluma nawe.” Her eyes are on me.
“ yebo gogo.”
I walk inside the rondavel and it looks
bigger on the inside than it was on the
outside and it’s very clean too. I see the
metal basin I take it put it on the middle of
the room. Take the small carpet and put it
next to the basin. I take the 25 litre
container that is filled with water and pour
half of the cold water. I go outside and see
the huge pot on the fire that wasn’t there
before and take it and our the hot water to
the basin that has cold water then go
outside.
“ sengicedile gogo ukuthela amanzi. ( I’m
done pouring the water.) ”
“ ngena baba uyogeza.” The man passes
me without saying anything and closes the
rondavel door. Somehow that hurts me.
“ he’s not mad at you khanyo. He’s mad at
your father?.”
“ ubaba wami ongizalayo gogo?.” She’s my
grandmother?.
“ I am your husband’s great grandmother
and that is his great grandfather. He is mad
at your father in law. Sit down mzukulu. ”
“ Wenzeni gogo?.”
“ akazange ahlawule akazange ikhiphe
inkomo yebele futhi akazange azocela
ubuhlobo obuhle agcwalise izinkomo
esibayeni.” So they just went to home
affairs and signed only?.
“ they did. Ngokwesintu lezizingane azibiza
ngo Gumede aukzona ezabo ntombi.
Bayazi nabo oQwabe kodwa abenzi
okilungile yingakho kuzo2 jeziswa izingane
ngiba abazali abalaleli. Your father in law
and his two wives have been seeing the
signs and warnings but they chose to
ignore them and look at what happened to
your husband.”
“ so what do gogo was all of you doing
what?.”
“ their father needs to do everything right
from the beginning. All the things I told you
he didn’t do he must do them. After he is
done all of that he must take both his sons
the twins and your twins and his twin wives
to the river and they must take 5 R5 throw
them inside and ask for permission to the
owner then they will get in and cleanse
because everything began there and it must
end there so it doesn’t happen to your sons.
Your mothers must forgive each other.
Someone will come to help them. After he
has done that mzukulu he must do
umsebenzi wabadal kuzohlatshwa inkomo
emnyama nezimbuzi ezimbili uyacela ukuthi
kube nokuthula emnzini wakhe ngoba
kunomsindo omkhulu kakhulu kungaze
kuchitheke igazi. Uyezwa ntombi?.”
“ Ngiyezwa gogo.” The door opens and
umkhulu comes out and sits on the chair. I
see a cup and saucer next to me. I take the
kettle and pour the water and make him
some tea.. He accepts takes a sip and
smiles. I smile too.
“ When your father in law has done all of
that then your husband and his brothers. All
four of them will do a ceremony here where
their mother’s grew up. Both their mother’s
must be there khanyo. You will make sure it
happens. You see this cup and saucer you
have served your great grandfather with?. ”
“ Yebo gogo.”
“ You must find the exact same ones. One
the day your husband does the ceremony
you will serve both him and he’s twin
brother tea because my husband has never
drank alcoholic in his life but you will make
it for the whole village.”
“ but gogo umhlaba sowa dayiswa njena?.”
She lightly laughs.
“ cha mzukulu usase ngowethu.” Huh? .
“ When all of that has happened gogo
everything is going to be fine?.”
“ its up to all of you to make that happen.
Khulu? Do you want to say something to
them?.” He gives me a sad smile.
“ he is blessed to have you. One right thing
sebenzile did was to raise good men who
lost their ways as they grew up because of
secrets. When you came into mbuso’s life
you changed everything and the name she
have you of her twin sister was the one you
deserve because you have been nothing
but a blessing to my great grandchildren.
Ngiyabonga MaNgcobo kakhulu konke
sokuzolunga manje ngoba azisekho
izimfihlo. ”
“ Ngiyabonga kakhulu mkhulu nawe gogo.
Ngizobazisa senze konke ngendlela.”
“ ukbumbule ukuthi nguwe ukuthula
phakathi kwabo.” This is heavy.
“ I understand gogo. Will my husband wake
up and come back to me and our kids?.”
She looks at me like she feels so much pity
and I break down. “ Please don’t take him
away from me gogo ngiyanincenga!.
Ngisamdinga empilweni yami and I’m too
found to be a widowed please mkhulu!. ” I
get on my knees and beg them.
“ you are blessed khanyo. You will have all
you have ever wanted and more… . ” she
takes a pregnant pause the continues. “… ..
But it’s life for a life.” God no!.
“ What does that mean gogo?!.” Tears
stream down her face.
“ you will understand what it means. We
tried to warn all of the but they didn’t listen
to us and we had no choice but to do this
so we can talk to you. Many things will go
wrong if they refuse or if blood is spilled.
This is their last warning.”
“ It’s late my wife. We have to go.”
“ gogo don’t let them take mbuso away from
me. It’s not fair.
“ Oh mzukulu wami!.”
“ Gogo zikalala please!.”
“ I’m gogo Nobelungu. Tell them it’s me.” I
nod wiping my tears.
She takes her doek from her head and
wraps it around me.
“ Whenever you need comfort wear this and
you will feel me close to you. Kuzolunga
sisi.”
She gives me a warm tight and loving
grandmother hug and I breath her in and
hug her tight. I cry on her shoulder not
wanting to let go but she pulls away from
me until I don’t feel her at all.
I’m trying to wake up but I can’t cause my
eyes won’t open but I can feel my cheeks
wet. The dream I just had and my heart
aches. I have no idea what she meant in
some of the things it I will tell my father in
law all of that.
“ luh?!. Luh?!.” That’s scelo. Why does he
sound scared?.
“ Give her something dammit!. She’s
fucking crying in her sleep!.” Bonga says. I
am?. I try to. I try to open my mouth and tell
them that not but still I can’t move. What
the hell is wrong with me?!.
“ She’s having a nightmare.. Let her be.
She will be fine.”
The doctor says and somehow that calms
me down and I fall into a deep sleep after
that.
Mbuso wake up please. I need you!.

CHAPTER 72
LUNGI

#NotEdited
The sun kisses my skin and it feels like it is
enveloping me with a warm blanket. I love it
because I feel very comfortable but still tired.
My shoulders feels very heavy like I’ve got the
whole world on my shoulders and the weight is
actually draining me. I open my eyes and the
first thing I see is an opened window the birds
are chipping outside and there’s cool air coming
in from the window.
How did I end up her cause the last thing I
remember is I was talking to my brother and I
drank… . Oh yes. I drank the pills Sims gave me
and they knocked me out and I had that dream
about my husband's great grandmother and I
still remember everything she told me. My heart
aches cause it is in so much pain. A life for a
life. Who’s going to die and who’s going to
live?. God please protect Sims baby and not let
anything happen to them. They really need this
child cause if they loose it I’m afraid it could
make things really hard between them.
I don’t understand why they don’t kill sebenzile
and spare my husband’s life or who ever that is
suppose to die. This is all her doing and she
must be the one who must suffer the most. Why
did they put all of this in my shoulders?. Why
didn’t they tell their mother or someone else
besides me. This is going to be very hard
because no one wants sebenzile anywhere near
them. God why is my life so difficult?.
It looks like a beautiful day but for me it’s one
of the worst days of my life. Nothing is
beautiful about this day at all. I wish I was in
my house in my bed where I can just lock
myself in my bedroom and sleep until this
nightmare ends. Please wake up my husband. I
really need you.
I lift my hands and see a drip that is connected
to my hand. Why did they out it in cause I’m not
sick or even admitted here. How long have I
been asleep?. I have to go and see how mbuso is
doing.
I guess they left me alone to get some sleep and
I’m thankful for that. My kids are coming today
and I have to be strong. I’ll try to not break
down in front of them. They will cry too
because they are still young and don’t
understand even though they will see that their
dad is not with them. I shift and sit up. I hate
hospitals and I hate the smell. The last time I
was at the hospital I thought I was going to die
and leave my kids or even lose them but now
it’s their dad. When am I going to her break
cause I’m tired. I’m physically and emotionally
exhausted. I pull my knees to my chest and hide
my face on them with my hands wraps tightly
around legs.
I hear the door opening and it smells like
someone has just gotten out of the shower and it
reminds me I have to shower too cause I
probably stink.
“ Luh?. ” it’s bonga.
“ Did you get some sleep bonga?.” He heaven a
deep sigh.
“ I didn’t leave.”
“ Go home and see your wife bonga. Sleep
shower eat and then come back. I’ll be fine.
Sims needs you and I don’t want anything to
stress her please.”
“ you need me too. Here are your clothes please
shower then when you come back food will be
ready.”
“ When are my kids getting here?. ”
“ sbu went to get them. They will be here at in a
few hours.”
“ thank you. What time is it?.”
“ 10 am. ”
“ has the doctor said anything?.”
“ Luh?.”
“ please tell me bonga.” He’s still in the ICU but
the doctor said he is doing well and maybe
tomorrow he might be able to breath on his own.
“ That’s good.”
“ Luh please look at me ?.”
“ I would like to shower please.”
“ I want… . ”
“ just give me some space please!. I can feel
him walking closer and stands on my righted
side. Doesn’t this man understand that I just
want to cry the misery that I’m feeling. “ Bonga
I told you… . ” I look up and stop almost
shouting at bonga. I look at him he nods and I
look at the man standing next to me who looks
exactly like my husband.
“ this was not how I imagined our first meeting
was going to be like.” I am speechless. “
“ busani? ”
“ Mfazi kamfowethu. How are you holding
up?.” I shake my head.
My kids are identical twins and people in the
house sometimes have a hard time separating
who is who. They can only tell them apart when
one is crying and in my hip and not frowning at
people and my other sweet son who’s just gentle
and quiet. I don’t know what busani is like but
the only difference physically I see his a little
scar that’s barely noticeable above his eyebrow
and his voice has a little husk to it.
“ Luh?.” Bonga calls my name.
“ have you seen him?.”
“ I have. Mom is with him.” I nod.
“ is your dad and your mom bonga?.”
“ She’s at a hotel.”
“ Tell them to bring her here.” Busani stills and
raises his eyebrow like how mbuso does.
“ not today luh. Just let my brother and have a
moment with his mom and brother. ”
“ why do you want her to be here?. ” busani
asks.
“ it’s not about your mothers. This is about my
husband and what I have to say involves them.
All of you and she must be here.”
“ I’ll tell them to bring her here?.”
“ she’s on lockdown?. ” busani asks.
“ she should be dead!.” Bonga says.
“ Bonga?.... ”
“ I’ll give you two some time to talk. I need to
smoke.” bonga smokes?.
He leaves and loses the door behind him.
Busani sits down and breathes out deeply.
“ I am really sorry for everything.” I tell him.
“ I’m sorry for what my brother and you are
going through. He will be fine luh?. Can I call
you that?. ”
“ everyone calls me that. How is your
mother?.”
“ She’s been crying from yesterday since we
received the call and when she saw him… .. She
cried. I have heard her crying but this morning
was really hard for her and me.”
“ I understand. And your dad?.”
He stands up and walks to the window and
looks outside.
“ I saw my little brother zipho he’s great kid but
this whole thing has fucked both of them up
cause they didn’t know the truth. I k ow I don’t
low them well but seeing them hurting like this
is very hard for me. They asked for forgiveness
like my brothers had a hand in everything but
they didn’t. That’s what is making me angry.
My brothers are scared because they think
maybe will blame them or be angry because it’s
their mother and that will never happen. They
are my blood brothers I love them and nothing
is going to change that. We are all reunited so I
can’t let anyone get between us ever again.” I
get he doesn’t want to talk about his dad
and not going to force him.
“ I feel a little better to hear you say that cause I
was worried too especially about your mother.”
He smiles…I close my eyes cause it feels like
it’s so was smiling at me.
“ mom. Is a wonderful gentle soul. She’s very
forgiving and hates confrontations. She’s a very
loving and caring woman. You are going to love
her.” I nod.
“ how did she react when she saw your dad?. ”
“ luh… ”
“ I know I’m sorry. ”
“ it’s just that…. . ” he’s not ready to talk about
his dad and the emotions he felt and I have to
respect that.
“ busani it’s okay. I understand and you don’t
have to explain. I'm sorry for pushing.”
He nods but he looks like he wants to say
something but I neat him to it.
“ I’m going to shower now. Can you please
make sure that everyone is present. Especially
your parents and aunt.”
“ What’s going on?.” I shake my head.
“ you will find out with the rest of them.”
I say getting off the bed and sigh.
“ how are you feeling though mfazi
kamfowethu?. ”
“ I feel like shit this is the worst day of my life. I
want my husband back I want him home safe in
my arms with our children but… .. I know that it
isn’t going to happen anytime soon.
“ How do you mean?.”
“ busani so you want your brother to get well
and come back to us?. ”
“ luh he’s practically me. I need him my other
brothers and our dad in my life. I have lived my
life feeling half empty because a very huge part
of me was missing and when I saw my dad and
brothers it felt like a huge weight is being lifted
off my shoulders but seeing a man who looks
like me and happen to be my brother laying on
that bed with tubes coming in and out of his
body was hard. It broke me because that could
have been me laying on that bed. I held his hand
and it felt like a whole that was in my heart was
being filled and I have never felt like that in my
life ever.” I hold my necklace on my neck has
my husband's ring and tears stream down my
face.
“ can you please tell him that and more because
he really needs to hear it busani. Ever since your
brothers found out the truth they have been
searching for you for almost three years now
and now you’re finally here and he can’t
experience that because he’s fighting for his life
and… ”
“ hey I’m sure he heard me talking to him. He
knows that I am here with our mom. The whole
family isn’t here for just mbuso but for you too
and our sons. I can’t wait to see them. Mbuso is
going to wake up now at anytime cause he can
feel the love everyone has for him especially his
wife and children. He’s going to pull through
and he’s going to need you.”
“ You don’t understand busani. Mbuso and my
kids are everything to me. He’s my home and
my peace of mind. Without him my life won’t
make any sense. I’m the one who needs him
more than anything.”
“ I understand mfazi kamfowethu but I want you
to know that you can also count on me like the
rest of my brothers. I’ve got you. ” I nod
sniffing.
“ I need you to do something for me. ”
“ Anything.”
“ what I’m going to say in there is probably
going to upset many people and I don’t have
any choice because it’s a must. I need you to
make sure that they won’t try to kill each other
cause if everything doesn’t go they way I was
told my husband might die. I know I’m asking a
lot but…”
“ luh it’s okay. Whatever we all have to do to
save my brothers life we will do it. You can
count on me.”
“ thank you busani.”
“ Anytime sis. Can I give you a hug cause
apparently there’s a rule that no man touches
you other than your brother and husband and or
your dad’s. How come you have two dad’s?.”
he’s frowning and I almost smile.
“ you see I’m already doing my job? Making
you smile. ” I shake my head.
“ I’m going to shower.”
“ Haw Sisi and my hug?.”
serif">“ Haw Sisi and my hug?.”
“ Sure.”
He embraces me with a warm and tight
hug. It’s not the same as my husbands but
for a little bit I imagine it is mbuso who’s
hugging me. I press my face in his chest
inhaling him but this smell is very unfamiliar
to me but again I pretend he smells fresh
clean water. He kisses the top of my head
then let’s go.
“ Thank you. I really needed that.”
“ did it feel like it was him standing here?.”
“ No but it helped.”
“ I’m going to give you some privacy and
see what is going on there.” I nod. He
leaves.
I walk out of the room I was sleeping in
carrying the bag bonga brought me and I
look around there’s no one. I have no idea
which floor is this and there’s none to ask.
A nurse comes out of some room.
“ Uhm excuse me nurse?.”
“ yes?. ” she gives me a once over look.
“ which floor is this?. ”
“ how did you get here?.”
“ I don’t know. Can you show me where I
can find the elevator?. ”
“ this is the seventh floor and no one expect
doctors and patients who are in a coma are
allowed here.” She touches her watch like
she’s doing something to it and I frown.
“ the elevator please?.”
“ follow me.” She turns and I follow her. She
opens this door and there’s a security guard
coming towards us
“ take her to the reception and make her
wait for visiting hours like the rest of them
cause I have no idea how she needed up
here busy wondering around like this is a
public hospital!. Nine scefe yaz and please
check her bag cause maybe she stole
something.” She’s one of those mean
nurses that everyone talks about. You know
that one nurse who is not kind. She’s the
one.
“ Miss open the bag.”
“ show me the elevator sir?. ”
“ not until you open this bag!.”
“ I have my clothes in here sir and I promise
you I didn’t steal anything. I just want to
show me where I can find the elevator
that’s all.”
The nurse pulls my bag from my shoulder
and it falls down. I close my eyes and count
from 10 to 1. My life is a shit right now and
this girl wants to make it worse.
“ Before either of you open my bag and go
through my personal things and not find
what you’re looking for let me tell you this.
Before the end of the day the both of you
will find yourselves without jobs. I will make
sure the hospital fires the both you and you
will never work ever again in any private
public hospitals or even clinics. Think about
what is important to you two. It’s either you
touch my person things and get fired or you
show w where the fucken elevator is so I
can go see my husband and you keep your
job. Now which is it cause you’re fucken
wasting my time!.” The man looks at my
hands and sees my wedding ring.
“ I’m sorry ma’am. I’ll show you where the
elevator is.”
“ Hey kahle wena. I said search that bag
and see if she didn’t steal anything or try to
kill someone.. You never know these days
cause people are desperate and they’ll do
anything for money. It’s your job to make
sure that the patients and us the workers
here are safe from harm search her bag
now!. ”
“ I’m not doing it nurse kunene. Do it
yourself!.”
“ the hospital told us there are very
important people here and we must be alert
of any suspicious individuals and this one
looks very suspicious.”
Oh my god this woman!. She thinks I looks
suspicious because I look like mess?. I did
shower didn’t I and I’m wearing my clothes
my hair is covered so what is that makes
me looks suspicious.
“ miss kunene I am Mrs Gumede.. My
husband was brought here last night. He’s
on the fifth floor so please your wasting my
time with your stupid talks. Sir lead the way.
”
I pick up my bag from the floor but she
snatches away from me unzips it and takes
throws out all my clothes the underwear I
was wearing bra dress toiletry bag
everything inside and they fall on floor. This
woman really has a death wish. She laughs
when she’s done.
“ I am Mrs Gumede my foot!. Yeeer with
these cheap clothes. Oops there’s nothing
here so take her to the waiting area.” She
says leaving stepping on my clothes.
Satan is really testing me.
I pick up my underclothes and get them in
my bag and the security guard helps me.
“ I’m sorry about that Mrs Gumede. Miss
kunene is like this and she’s very rude to all
the patients and everyone. I’m sorry she did
that to your things.” I take my other shoe
from him and out it inside and zip my bag.
“ it’s okay sir.”
“ Is it really your family and husband in
there that everyone is talking about?.” They
are?.
“ they are and he is.”
“ I hope I won’t get into trouble cause I
really need this job miss.”
“ You won’t sir. The elevator please?. ”
“ Oh yes this way.”
We walk for like five minutes then I see the
elevator.
“ I hope he recovers Mrs Gumede.” He
sounds genuine.
“ me too sir.” The door closes and I press
the fifth floor button and it takes me there.
The door opens and I walk out and it’s full
of my family.
Scelo sees me and meets me halfway and
gives me a hug.
“ I’m glad you slept but you still don’t look
good.”
“ Gee thanks bro.”
“ you know what I mean.”
“ Is lesego here?. ”
“ in thirty minutes they will be landing. The
nannies and sis no to will be at the house.
We rented the one next to yours.”
“ thanks bro. Morning everyone.” They
greet back and they come and give me
hugs and I appreciate all of them. No one
can ever get enough hugs.
“ There’s breakfast in the conference room.”
Bonga says.
“ I want to see my husband first.”
“ luh please eat.”
“ I’m not hungry mah.” I tell my aunt.
“ You slept without eating last night luh and
you need…”
“ Yoh mah I’m not hungry please!.”
I walk and leave them there and go straight
to mbuso’s room. I just get in without
looking who’s inside cause I’m mad. I’m
tired of everyone telling me what to do. I
look up and see my father in law comforting
mbuso’s mom?. I guess they were having a
moment and I disturbed it.
“ oh I’m sorry. I didn’t realise that you were
here I’ll… ”
“ don’t leave khanyo.” mbuso's mom looks
at him and I see this look in her eyes. She’s
looking at him like she still loves him or is it
my imagination?.
I walk to mbuso and touch his hand. It isn’t
cold like how it was yesterday. I kiss his lips
and breath him in and that smell gives me
comfort cause it is him. My tears fall on his
cheeks and I wipe them.
“ Please wake up love. I need you.” I take
off my necklace and remove his ring and
put it where it belongs. I’ll never take this
ring off love. He once said.
“ he’s going to be fine.” His mom speaks
and it’s like she’s breathing life into her
words.
I look at her and she’s absolutely beautiful.
She looks like her twin sister and they too
are identical twins. I don’t blame qwabe for
not being able to see the difference
between them.
“ I am owami Zikalala mbuso’s mom. Your
mother in law and grandmother to your
kids.” She says so lovingly and she sounds
happy.
“ Are you happy?.” I didn’t want ask her
that.
“ For the first time in a very long time.” She
smiles.
“ I am happy too that you are here. He’s
going to be so happy.” I thread his fingers
with mine. He would say my hands are
small and delicate but they fit him
perfectly. Everything in you fits me
perfectly and I wouldn’t change a thing.”.
“ luh?... Luh?. ” my father in law is calling
my name.
“ I’m sorry. ”
“ It’s ok sisi. No need to explain. I have
heard so much about you luh and I’m
looking forward to spending time with you
my son and my grandkids. I hope you will
allow me that opportunity.” She takes my
hands in hers..
“ of course ma. You don’t have to even ask.
This is your family too.”
“ I had thought of was never going to see
him… . Them again but then… ” she cries.
I look at my father in law and his eyes are
glossy. I pull her to me and hold her. I let
her cry out loud while I let my years fall
silently.
“ it’s okay mama. It’s going to be okay.
You’re here now mbuso knows it and I
know he’s dying to feel your arms wrapped
around him and his around you too.”
“ I’m scared luh.. What if it’s already too
late?.”
“ please don’t say that.”
“ I know. Please don’t take that the wrong
way. It’s my fear talking.”
“ Can you give some time alone with my
husband. I need to talk to all of you.”
“ is everything okay lungile?.”
“ no baba. Everything is a mess. I’ll explain
to all of you.” He nods. They leave me
alone with my husband. I sit down and take
his hand.
“ baby I think you know I have a visit from
your great grandmother and she explain
everything to me and what needs to be
done. I will make sure everything is done
the way she instructed me. She also said a
life for a life mbuso and I am so a red case
that means someone is going to die and it
can’t be you. You can’t live me with our kids
mbuso.. I need you to hang in there and
fight hard so you can come back to us. This
journey that your dad has to take is going to
be hard and painful cause it is going to
bring memories back and it’s going to upset
your mother and brother but for the peace
of this family it has to be done that’s why I
asked your twin brother to make sure that
they agree and not run to kill each other. I
love you Phakathwayo buya kimi sthandwa
Sami.”
I kiss him again then look at the door I
came in through. God please be with me.

#NotEdited
I hope the whole family is ready to hear me out
and what I have to say even though I know very
well that what I’m going to say is going to hurt
mbuso's mom and his brother. They have to
understand though that I’m doing this because I
want my husband home.
“ Mrs Gumede?.” It’s mbuso’s doctor.
“ Doc how’s my husband?.”
“ His brain has been active since the early hours
of the morning and I am very impressed. His
brain swelling is going down and that is the
most important thing. If he continues like this it
might be possible that tomorrow he might be
able to breath on his own. Your husband is
fighting Mrs gumede. ”
“ I am so happy to hear that doc. Are not still
able to tell if he is paralyzed or not?.”
“ I did move my pen under his feet and I saw his
toes moving a little and that’s very good. I don’t
you to get your hopes up though until we are
absolutely sure but this is good for us.” Thank
God. At least one good thing is happening.
“ Thank you doc.” she smiles. Time to talk to
my family.
They are sitting in groups like they are dividing
themselves and I hate that. I don’t like it at all
because during this difficult time we should all
be as one.
I look around and I don’t see bonga’s mom.
“ Bonga?.” They stop talking.
“ Where’s uMah?.”
“ She’s not welcomed here. She doesn’t deserve
to be here.” Their uncle says.
“ She needs to be here malume. What I have to
say involves her too?.”
“ we don’t need her here. You can say whatever
you want to say to all of us here and then we’ll
tell her.”
“ I’m sorry malume but she has to be here. ”
“ Makoti this thing is bigger than you. Don’t
force us to accept her as part of this family!.”
“ Baba with all due respect I don’t mean to
disrespect you in any way and I don’t want to
involve myself in your business. I didn’t choose
to out put in this position because it is too much
for me and I hate it. They came to me I didn’t
come to them so please. I need uMah here.
She’s part of this family whether we like it or
not.”
“ luh what’s really going on?.” Bonga asks. I
cover my face with my hands and take a deep
breath.
“ please go get her?.”
“ she’s in the conference room. I’ll go get
her.” He leaves and I sit down. Why me?. Why
did they choose me and not anyone else?.
“ Mrs gumede?.” It’s another woman nurse
kunene and the security guard.
“ Can I help you?.”
“ I am the hospital's CEO Dr Khomo.” She
shakes my hand. “ something has been brought
to my attention here by Mr masombuka.”
“ it’s okay doctor. It happened and I would like
to forget about it.” I really don’t want anyone to
know.
“ what happened.” Scelo asks.
“ Miss kunene here accused Mrs gumede of
stealing from the hospital.” Dr Khomo explains.
“ what?. ” they ask shocked.
“ she mad a mistake doctor it’s fine.”
“ Mrs gumede in saw the footage and it was
totally unacceptable. She’s here to apologize to
you and we want you to know that further steps
will be taken against her.” Honestly I don’t
care. They shouldn’t have dragged this poor
man here.
“ What did the nurse do?.” Busani asks.
“ when Mrs gumede tried to explain who she is
and why she’s here she accused her of lying and
then she snatched Mrs gumede’s bag from her
and started pulling her things out of the bag.
When she didn’t find alwhat she was accusing
her of she left stepping on her clothes.” Mr
masombuka explains.
“ and you were kind to help me sir and I am
grateful. That’s all that matters.”
“ she did what?. You do know that she can write
you a check right now and give you your whole
pension fund money?. ” the nurse rolls her eyes
“ Apologize nurse kunene.” The doctor or tell
her.
“ sorry. ” she says rolling her eyes.
“ that’s not an apology ntombazane. ”
mbuyiselo says.
“ yeah. Thank you Dr Khomo.”
“ Please let me know if you need anything else.”
“ we will.”
They walk out and she sits far away from
anyone and that hurts me. I know she’s the most
hated person right now and everyone wants to
be done with her because of what she did and
she does deserve it but she shouldn’t be treated
like an animal.
“ Mah please sit closer. You have to hear this
too.”
She looks like she hasn’t slept in years. She
looks like how I feel. Miserable exhausted…
“ Talk she’s here!..”
“ don’t talk to my sister like!.”
“ scelo… ”
“ How am I talking to her?!.”
“ Malume please!.”.busani says walking in
coming out from mbuso’s room. “ don’t take
your anger our on her. She’s dealing with a lot
and she doesn’t need stress. Just hear what she
has to say.” Busani says.
“ What is so important that she needs to be
here?. Mbuso has his mother now and he
doesn’t need her!.”
“ That’s not your decision to make malume. It’s
my husbands decision to make. Not me you or
anyone else here. If you would just give me a
chance to tell you what I was told!.”
“ by who? Her?. She’s the one who sent you
here to try to talk to us on her behalf right so we
can forgive ber?!. Is that what you want to tell
us.” He says shouting
“ Malume it’s.. . ”
“ I’m not going to sit here and listen you to you
championing for her after everything she had
done to this family!. How could you betray your
husband like this! … . ”
“ Zikalala you better watch how you talk to my
daughter!.” My dad stands up.
“ Fanele stop!.” Mbuso’s mom reprimands him.
“ Malume I know you don’t know luh but we
know her. She would never betray mbuso or
even one of us. She would never do that so
please don’t talk to her like that and accuse her
of betraying her husband.”
“ she’s been her mother in law all these years.
She could have learned some tricks from her!.”
“ Enough Fanele!.” My father in law says
standing up.
This is getting out of hand!. They were suppose
tolisten to what I have to say then right after I’m
dine but no!. His uncle now is accusing me of
something I would do!.
“ oh shut up!. Had you had your eyes opened
and saw who she really was none of us would be
here right now!.”
“ you will not talk to my daughter like that
Fanele. Ever!.” My father in law warns him
“ This is not the time to point fingers and put
blame. We all know what happened and we
can’t change that!. Baba please let’s hear what
luh has to say!.”
“ you insult my daughter again and we will have
a huge problem!.” My dad is angry.
“ if you want me to listen to what you have to
say then you will tell sebenzile to leave. I am
not going to be in the same room as her!.”
“ Malume please! She must be here. There’s no
other way!.”
“ how could she be needed when we know the
problem is her?.”
“ If you can just calm down and let me explain
you will understand why?.”
“ No!. I know what you want to say and it’s not
going to work!.”
“ No uncle you’re being unreasonable right
now!.” Busani says.
“ You don’t know anything!. You think you
know but you don’t!. Let me tell you something
malume should anything happen to my
husbands I’m going to blame you and no one
else!.”
“ What? You’re crazy!. You should blame that
mother in law of yours who’s busy feeding you
poison!.”
“ Fanele stop!.” Mbuso’s mom says.
“ No I won’t. I see you want to kill my nephew
so you can inherit all his money!.” OH MY
GOD!. I feel. Like I’m going to have a heart
attack right now and I just want to die!.
“ MALUME NO! WHAT IS WRONG WITH
YOU?! ” Busani screams at him.
“ You mother fucker!. How dare you accuse my
daughter of trying to kill her husband!.”
Dad charges to uncle fanele and lands a mean
punch on his nose I see blood coming out and
the boys try to separate them. It’s one big mess
and I don’t know what to do. They finally
manage to separate them.
Bonga’s mom is crying my dad looks like he
still wants a piece of uncle fanele and my
brother is mad. Bonga looks at him digusted and
his sons are looking at their dad disappointed.
My father in law has this murderous look on his
face. They are all shout at each other. Uncle
fanele is busy accusing me of many things and
conspiring with bonga’s mom.
I take my bag and walk to the elevator.
“ Luh don’t Leave! Luh!.”
I quickly get in and the doors close just as
busani as busani was about to be close. My legs
buckle and I fall down on the floor and cry!.
Never ever have I ever thought I would be
accused of trying to kill my husband. How
could he think I would do someone like that?!.
Why wouldn’t he let me say what I have to
say?. I can’t break down in here and have
people watch me fall apart. I get up search for
my phone but I don’t find it. I have no idea
where it is. I’ll ask the receptionist if I can make
a call to Sims.
The doors open and I look up and see sbu
“ Hey you’re crying what happened? Is mbuso
okay? ” I step out.
“ I… he’s fine… I… take me home please!. I
can’t be here… my kids!. ”
“ what happened luh?. What did they do to
you?!.”
“ Just take me home please!.”
“ ok come.” He takes my bag and we walkout.
We go to the parking lot get in the car and be
drives out.
I zone out and think about what malume said. I
know he’s angry and his sister but did he really
mean all those things?. Does he really think I
am capable of that?. How the hell am I going to
tell them what their grandmother said if he’s not
willing to hear me out?. What if he doesn’t
believe me when I ttellthem and convinces
mbuso’s mom to not agree?.
“ Luh talk to me. What happened?.”
“ everything is a mess sbu and mbuso’s uncle is
being difficult he… ” I tell him about my dream
excluding about someone dying but everything
else that happened that led me to walk out.
serif">“ everything is a mess sbu and
mbuso’s uncle is being difficult he… ” I tell
him about my dream excluding about
someone dying but everything else that
happened that led me to walk out.
“ that’s a lot luh. On top of everything you’re
going through they dump all of that on you
and you must try to get everyone in one
room and tell them?. That’s hard. No
wonder you just walked out of there. When
you tell them they have to put their
differences aside and do what is expected
for the future of this family. Mbuso will make
sure that it happens. His dad too.”
“ What about their uncle sbu? What if he
has an influence over his sister and
convinces her not to agree?.”
“ I haven’t met busani but if he’s identical to
mbuso they might have similar character
and I think he will sort he’s uncle out or else
we know scelo will do anything to make you
happy.”
“ that’s what scares me. It was a mess sbu
my dad punches my uncle in-law and that
might make my relationship with them
hard.”
“ I would have punched him too if I was
your dad. Firstly he doesn’t have any right
to talk to you like that and secondly he
doesn’t know you to even accuse you of
doing something like that.”
“ I know sbu but they are still my in-laws too
and we have to build a relationship.”
“ mbuso wont allow that. Anyone who hurts
the one he loves will pay.”
“ and that’s how we got here. Revenge!.
Sometimes revenge is not the answer.
Sometimes we just have to let things go
and let God and our ancestors fight on our
behalf. I know what ma did is very cruel but
for Pete’s sake they should just let her
ancestors deal with her.
“ That’s true. Sometimes we don’t need to
fight but it’s who we are luh. We protect and
fight for those we love. ” the gate opens and
we get inside this huge beautiful mansion.
“ thank you for bringing my kids to me and
everyone.”
“ my brother would do the same for me too.
Luh I’m always going to be here for you
whtherbuso is here or not. You can always
count on me for anything.” I take his into
mine.
“ This means a lot to me sibusiso.
Ngiyabonga kakhulu.”
“ I’m not coming in. I want to see what’s
going on at the hospital and talk to your
other husband.” He smiles. I shake my
head.
“ he might look like mbuso but he’s nothing
like him.” He laughs and I get out of the car.
I walk to the front door take a deep breath
and open the door. I can hear laughs from
the kids. They are all here?.
Melusi is chasing sbonelo and he’s
laughing so hard. I stand there watch him
pick sbonelo up and he throws him in the
air and my son laughs hard. It brings me so
much joy that I am blessed to have my sons
in my life. They turn and both see me. I put
my bag down
Melusi puts sbonelo down and my son runs
to me.
“ mama… mama.” I kneel down open my
arms and he thrown himself at me. I hug
him tight kiss his chubby cheeks and inhale
his scent. He smells like home.
I stand up with him still in my arms and pull
melusi to me. He gives me a tight hug too.
“ where is his twin?.”
“ he’s with mom. She’s changing his T-shirt
cause he got tomato sauce on his T-shirt.”
“ Ok boy. How are you?.”
“ I’m good ma. Is ubaba going to be okay?.”
“ Let’s sit down. How did you find out?.”
“ I heard mamakamo talking with gogo
nonto.”
“ do your other brothers and sister know?.”
“ no matter they don’t.” I breath out.
“ I need you to be a big brother to them and
watch them okay. If you see anything wrong
tell one of us and that includes you boy.”
“ I will ma.”
“ Melusi he’s going to be okay. I don’t want
you to worry or stress yourself. He was in
an accident but the doctor said he’s doing
okay and soon he’s going to be back and
ask you about your girlfriend.” He laughs.
“ Cha ma she’s not my girlfriend. She’s just
a friend that’s all.”
“ I’m glad to hear that cause you’re still
young. You need to focus on school and
just be a kid angith? ”
“ yebo ma.” I kiss his forehead. He gets up
and runs somewhere.
“ Hello baby?..... Did you miss mommy?.”
He nods. “ mommy missed you too. “ give
mommy a hug and kiss?.” He wraps his
little arms around me and gives me a kiss.
“ Mama? ”
“ yes baby?. ”
“ I want kamo.” I smile. He done with me. I
put him down and he runs away too.
I get up and walk to the kitchen and sis
nonto is coming in from outside.
“ Oh luh sisi. I’m so sorry.”
She pulls me to her arms and I hug her tight
too. Tears silently stream down. I feel a hug
behind me and someone else too joins. I
recognise their scents. It’s sims and lesego.
I let all the tears I’ve been holing back and
cry. They comfort me tell me it’s going to be
okay and I believe them. I’ve got my two
sisters with me and I know they will be with
me through thick and thin.
“ Thank you all for being here. ”
“ we are family sisi. We are not going
anywhere.” Sis nonto says.
I wipe my tears and look at them.
“ thank you for taking care of my kids.
Thank you.”
“ That’s what sisters do. Be there for you in
everyway.”
“ all three of you are the best. Sis nonto you
know that I take you as my mother so thank
you for helping lesego with all our kids. I
don’t know what we would all do without
you.”
“ That’s what mother’s do.” We laugh. “ I’m
going to start preparing lunch.” She hugs
me again.
“ let’s go to your bedroom.” Sims says.
“ Where’s sboniso?. ” he went outside to
okay with the others.
“ Did they give you any trouble?.” I ask
lesego.
“ It was only when we got a call that mbuso
was in an accident when you phoned and
heard them crying. Bonga came and light
the sage for them and they slept all through
the night. Sponsored however is not his
normal Jolly self. I think he can sense
something is wrong.”
“ my poor baby. Did the house cane with
furniture?.”
“ lucky for us the was a couple who wanted
a fully furnished house but then they
backed out of the deal. That’s how we got
it.”
We get inside the master bedroom and it’s
beautiful. Sims closes the door then we sit
on the bed and I sigh.
“ How is the pregnancy treating you?. ” I
ask Sims and she smiles.
“ I haven’t experienced any morning
sickness and I hope it stays that way.”
“ Please don’t let our situation make you not
enjoy your pregnancy.”
“ It’s hard luh. Mbuso is in ICU. You’re
stressed and my husband God!. ”
“ it’s going to pass and all this will be a thing
of the past.” I don’t want her to worry as
much as this whole situation affects her.
“ yeah.”
“ how are you though?. Seriously luh?.”
Lesego asks me.
“ it’s hard guys. It’s really hard and I the
thought that mbuso might doe terrifies me.
The doctor said when she touched his feet
his toes moved so it’s a good sign that
maybe my husband might not be
paralyzed.”
“ that’s really great luh.” She says.
“ you know even if he’s paralyzed loses his
leg arm eye or anything guys my love for
him will never change. I will always love him
the same. He’s the only man for me and I
for him. I just want him to wake up and
come back to us. That’s all I want.”
“ And he will sis.”
“ Your brother called and told us what
happened in the hospital.”
“ guys! You should have heard mbuso’s
uncle accusing me of wanting to kill mbuso
for his money and conspiring with mah so I
can apologize on her behalf. He really hurt
my feelings. . ”
“ where does he get off saying that?.”
“ I know he is hurt we all are but the way he
went about it was very wrong.”
“ What did you want to talk about?.” Lesego
asks.
I tell them about the dream I had excluding
about someone dying and they are
shocked.
“ My god luh!.” Sims. Says. “ I wish I was
there to see your dad punching him!.” They
laugh. I chuckle.
“ you really don’t deserve this luh. You are
one amazing person I have ever met. Your
heart is pure and you always want what is
best for everyone and I understand why
they would choose you. They could have
told mbuyiselo's sister or both your mother
in-laws but they didn’t cause they knew you
are the only one who can do this. Whatever
you need from us count us in.” my brother
chose the best here.
“ He will come back and ask for
forgiveness. They will all come back and
hear what you have to say.”
“ I hope so too guys.” There’s a light knock
on the door
“ come in. “ the door opens and I see little
hands first and his frowning face and I
chuckle. Kamo comes in with him.
“ hey baby?.” He smiles and my heart just
melts. He runs to the bed pick him up and
shower his face with kisses and fits of his
cheerful giggles fill the room. I tickle him he
laughs so hard and tries to ran away from
me and I stop. Both of them have their dads
charming smile.
“ We will leave you t wo alone.”
“ Come and give aunty a hug.” Kamo gives
me hug then kisses my cheek. “ thank you
princess.” She laughs “ Tell your other
brothers I will see them okay? Aunty is tired
and I just want to nap a little. Please bring
sbonelo to me?.”
“ ok aunty.” they leave us alone.
I lay on the bed and look at my son who’s
looking.
“ Are you okay baby?.” He nods. “ you miss
daddy?.” He nods again.
“ I miss him too baby.” I kiss his little hand.
The door opens and Sbonelo comes in.
“ I’ll get them when you fall asleep sisi so
they won’t d wake you up.” The nanny says
putting sbonelo on the bed.
“ you don’t have too. I missed them. I’ll call
you if they need something.”
“ Ok sisi.” She closes the door.
My sons both looks like their dads twin. I
don’t know how they are going to react
when they see busani or both of them at the
same time. They are both looking at me
wondering what is up with mom. I kiss their
foreheads and pull them close to me.
“ Daddy loves us and I know he will be back
to you and you and mommy. Right boys?.”
“ yes!.” They say.
“ do you want to nap with mommy?.” They
nod. “ you daddy and I love you so very
much.” They smile and I gives me comfort. I
watch them playing with each other until
they fall asleep. I cover us with the throw
blanket and let sleep take me.
CHAPTER 74
CHAPTER 74
LUNGI.
I thought i would be woken up with wet small
kisses little hands with all over my face but no.
The bed is empty and I’m the only one in the
bedroom. I wonder when did my little humans
left the bed because we were all napping. I sit
up and my body feels so heavy like I should
sleep for a long time and wake up after a week
or so. I am physically and emotionally tired. I
need a reset button from the moment thembi
confessed the whole truth.
I get off the bed and go the bathroom. I splash
my face with cold water to wake me up I look at
myself in the mirror and i look like hell. I have
dark circles under my eyes even though my skin
looks flushed. I don't know what time it is and i
also don't know where my phone is.
I can hear voices as I step out of the bedroom. It
sounds like the adults are here and I don’t know
where the brothers are and if they are here then
who's with my husband or my brother and
mbuso's brothers are with him?. The closer I
walk in the more their voices get clearer and it's
none other than uncle fanele who's leading the
conversation. Gosh i was hoping I will not see
or even talk to this man. They are sitting in the
dining room table and it looks like they just had
dinner. My family is here too and so that means
my dad and uncle fanele are okay now Well I
hope they are.
" Oh you're awake sisi. How are you feeling?."
mbuso"s birth mom asks.
" I am okay ma." I look around and i don't see
bonga's mom. I sigh.
Maybe is should stop forcing them to be all in
one room cause by the looks of things it's not
going to happen. I quickly go to the kitchen
cause I really don't want to talk about what
happened earlier.
To my surprise when i get in the kitchen i find
sims and her mother in-law. It's just the two of
them and i am shocked cause I never expected it
and that makes me think that even though
everything seems dark there is a little light
coming in and maybe it's going to start with
these two talking.
" I haven't seen you smiling since i got here but
here you are. I s mbuso awake?."
" bathong sims I was napping. You're the one
who should be telling me if my husband is
awake." she looks down sadly. " I know he's not
sis but soon he's going to wake up."
" I hope so luh. I want my son...I mean I want
mbuso back home to you."
" ma he's still your son too regardless of what
happened." I take her hand in mine.
She's always going to be mbuso's mother in my
eyes and my mother in-law because that's how i
first knew here and to say she's now not is very
hard. She has always been good to me and have
been a mother in many ways. I wish we could
all get along and look past what happened but i
know it's not as easy as i think and want.
" what made me smile is seeing the two of you
here together and drinking tea." they bot smile
again.
" i was apologizing to uThandekile for how i
have treating her all this time. I realised that i
was taking out my fears out on her. I could see
myself in her and that scared me. she's fierce
and she goes after what she wants and she
reminds me of who i was. I treated her that way
cause I felt like she can see right through me
like she can see what i was hiding and that
terrified me cause i knew if she finds out she
was going to tell everyone but still the truth
came out and i must say A huge load that has
been weighing heavily in my shoulders has been
lifted. I know everyone hates me and I am okay
with it because I deserve it. I know I should be
sleeping better because all the secrets are out but
I don't.
I lie awake at night and think about all the years
i spent lying to everyone I love. I ruined all your
lives every day i spent with you not telling all of
you the truth. I regret what i did and i wish I
could go back and did what my brother asked
me to do. Go home with them. Feel the love
they grew around in. I was young stupid and i
didn't know what love is. The first time I
experienced what love is was when qwabe told
me he loved me. I know he thought he was
telling my sister but to me each and everyday he
said that those words felt like they were directed
to me and i started believing that. I have said
very hurtful things to you and accused you of
many things and you never deserved that. I am
so sorry baby. I really am."
She wipes her tears. Sim's holds her hand. I sit
next to her too and she's in the middle. I put my
hand on top of theirs.
" I know I don't deserve your forgiveness and
this here right now with my two beautiful
daughters in-laws. I don't deserve this
compassion you are feeling for me and showing
me. It brings shame and I feel like I should
leave all of you alone and go away and never
see you again...." she cries when she says the
last part. "...but I don’t know how I will do that
when the last two and half years away from all
of you was the worst time of my life. I don't
think I can do it again but if that will bring
peace in this family and that is what I will do.
It's going to hurt me cause i wont be here to help
you when the baby comes." she wipes sims
tears.
" I want to be here for you like how i was when
luh was pregnant even though I didn’t get to
hold my grandkids and help her with them and I
want to do that with you but I know that's not
possible and I have accepted that. Sims you are
a great mother and you have raised wonderful
kids. I have seen how you are with them and
you doing a great job. My son is blessed ton
have you and be given this second chance again
but if he messes up again leave him. He's not
worth your tears and stress."
" Thank you ma. All i ever wanted was for you
to love me and accept me. That’s all I ever
wanted."
" I was very wrong about you simphiwe and I
hope you will truly forgive me and if I am still
alive you will allow me to be part of all my
grandchildren's lives. Both of you and maybe
zipho one day." gosh his girlfriend. I had to tally
forgotten about that.
" Ma I have learned many things from you. I
have watched how your kids love and respect
you and they still do even thought they are still
hurt and disappointed but to them ma. You are
this wonderful mother and that is never going to
change. You raised three amazing men who love
hard and are very protective of those they love.
What you did doesn't suddenly replace all those
kisses hugs and laughter you showered them
with. If you were this wicked and evil person
that was going to show on how you raised your
children. Yes you did hurt us very much but you
were young and made a mistake. You didn’t
think that the past will come and haunt you. Had
you maybe been raised with love and affection
maybe we all wouldn't be here."
I take a deep breath and realise the whole house
has gone silent. I don’t know if they are
listening to us or they have left.
" You know ma if my dad me and my brother
can forgive uncle victor for everything then we
also can forgive you. I believe everything
happens for a reason in our lives. Look at how
we found everyone. Someone wanted me dead
mbuso and his brothers go there and they rescue
children girls and women not knowing that one
of those girls was his niece. What I'm trying to
say and I could be wrong and I'm not saying
what you did was right but maybe had you not
did what you had done then maybe we all
wouldn't be here who knows?."
" I don't know luh."
" It's okay ma but what you must know is you
can't leave. You are still needed here."
" what did you want to talk about?." she asks.
" All of you have to in one room when i tell you
all of this."
" I think everyone is here maybe you can tell
them now?."
" Where is lesego and the kids? Your husband
too and the others?."
" they are at the next door house."
" ok." I wince.
" are you okay?. sims asks.
" yeah I am just a headache that’s all."
" Luh?..."
" I'm fine ma. Sims can you please call bonga
and tell them to come here so i can tell everyone
what's going on." she nods.
Mbuso mom comes in an and sits down. They
both look exactly alike. They are identical
twins. The kitchen instantly get filled with
tension. I close my eyes and take a deep breath.
" are you okay sisi?." what I have noticed about
busani and his mom is that they both have an
accent when they speak english.
" I'm okay ma." she looks at me like she doesn't
believe me.
" I heard you all talking well we all did." she
looks at her sister.
" You have amazing children grandchildren and
two beautiful daughters. The bond all of you
have is beautiful." ohk I didn’t expect that.
Sebenzile looks at her shocked.
" wami...."
" sebe right now we need to focus on getting
mbuso back then we will talk about everything
else but not now." sebe nods getting teary. Sims
and I look at each other and smile. If my mother
in-law forgives his sister then I think the whole
family can forgive her.
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman";mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New
Roman"">" can i make you some tea ma?."
I ask mbuso's birth mom.
" I'll make it luh sit down." sebe stands up
and makes tea.
" I have met bonga and zipho. They are
amazing children sebe and you should be
proud. I wonder what mbuso is like
though?." she smiles. I don't know how my
father in-law is going to choose between
them and if he will because both these
woman are the same. They smile the same
and they way they talk if you ignore the
accent form mbuso's mom.
" he's going to be happy to finally see you
and busani. Mbuso is all about luh. That's
who he is." they laugh and i smile. She
pours the for all of us and I take the
teaspoon and pour the sugar. I feel eyes on
me and I look up. They are watching me.
" ok what's wrong?."
" Luh your hand is shaking? What's going
on?." sims quietly asks me and I ignore her
and stir my tear. " Luh talk to me?."
" I'm stressed sims that's all. No need to get
worried." fuck this pain again. I have to go
but I have to talk to everyone first.
" luh..."
" hello family we are here." that's bonga and
he sounds like he is tipsy. Lesego shakes
his head. They leave us and go to the living
room.
" They were drinking while i was bathing the
kids. Hey sis. I left your food in the
microwave." I smile.
" I'll eat later I'm not really hungry. You
should have woken me up to help you with
the kids."
" I needed the distraction. My sister keeps
calling wanting to come even though I have
told her that this is a bad time God!." she
frustrated. Her family likes upsetting her
and i hate it. Scelo must do something
cause he can't let them keep upsetting her.
I get up and i feel a little dizzy and lucky for
me no one notices. I walk to her and
embrace her from the back. She heaves a
deep sigh
" they are missing out on knowing this
wonderful person in front of us. I'm blessed
to have a sister like you sisters and
my brother chose the best. Ever and i love
and appreciate you sis."
" you are going to make me cry luh. I'm
blessed to be a part of this family that i
love." we hug each other.
" this is beautiful." mbuso's mom says and
there's yearning in her voice.
" we love you too ma." i tell her looking at
her face. She smiles. " lets go to the living
room." they follow me.
They are all sitting down waiting to hear
what I have to say.
" I hope you are all willing to her what i have
to say because it is important to all of us
here especially my husband." I look at uncle
fanele who has a bruise on his eye.
" khuluma mfazi kaMfowethu." he likes
saying that. I sit down on the chair.
" I had a dream...."
" oh nkos! that one day you're going to be a
president?." This man bathong!.
" Malume maybe you should be excuse if
you are not willing to hear what luh has to
say." mabutho says.
" ok fine I'll listen. go ahead." Ii really hate
how this man talks to me. dismissively like
I'm nothing.
" if you weren't my uncle I swear I would
have punched you in the face. Never ever
talk to luh like that again malume." bonga
says.
" or what?."
" mbuso will kill you baba. Can you not be
your normal self for once. We know this
side of yours and we are used to it but they
don’t so please don’t." mbuyiselo tells him.
" luh please continue." says their silent
brother mthunzi.
" I dreamt about this old woman who has a
mole on top of her left side nose nostril."
they get silent malume has a surprised look
on his face and opens his mouth to speak
geez this man.
" Malume please let me talk. She said she's
gogo nobelungu and she was with umkhulu.
Her husband. Baba...." I look at my father
in-law.
" yebo ndodakazi."
" ugogo told that for everything to be okay
you must fix all the mistakes that happen."
" what mistakes?."
" she said...." I relay every detail of the
dream word for word but again I don't say
anything about someone dying cause it
could be anyone of us here. When I’m done
the whole house is completely silent if a pin
had to drop you would literally hear it.
" wow are you sure she said that?." malume
asks.
" that's what she told me. If all of this
doesn't happen then what happened to my
mother's and mbuso and his twin brother
will happen to our kids busani's kids and
their kids. UBaba must take all my mother's
busani and our twins to the river so it can
end where it began and then a cleansing
ceremony will be done before ubaba goes
to pay for damages."
" I will do it. Sebe wami i would like to talk to
you both alone." the sisters look at each
other.
" she also said someone will come and help
us with everything."
" who is going to come?." bonga asks.
" I don't know."
" I think i know." sbu says and looks at my
father in-law.
" it's gogo Xulu. She's the one who's going
to come."
" she's still alive?." malume and mbuso's
mom are shocked.
" she is. She's the one who helped us a lot."
" My God I can't believe it." wami says.
" so..." malume clears his throat."... who are
you going to pay amalobolo for?." he looks
at my father in-law
" that's none of your business fanele. Wena
nje you have to tell umalume to get ready
and expect visitors."
" he is going to pay damages for all his kids
and traditionally they are one person so he
must pay amalobola for both of them
and....take them both if either of them
want." my dad explains. ok.
" will our brother wake up before or after?."
" I don't know busani. I think before cause
he has to be there when you go to the
river."
" so where is this whole thing going to take
place?." mabutho asks me.
" malume they want you to buy the land
back and i think everything must take place
there but we will here from gogo xulu if that
is her who's going to help us.
" thank you makoti. " malume says and I
politely nod. my dizziness is getting worse. I
need to lay down.
" uhm that's all I had to say and now you
know. thank you for listening to me." They
nod. I turn and hold on to the chair and take
a deep breath. I feel someone holding my
hand. It's busani.
" are you okay?." he asks concerned.
" yeah I am. I just need to lay down that's
all."
" let me help you."
" I’m fine busani. I can walk."
He doesn't listen to me cause he takes me
to the bedroom.
" Thank you. I'll take it from here and please
tell everyone i would like to get some sleep
and i would appreciate it if you all can let
me get some sleep."
" ok but call me if you need anything."
" I will thank you busani." he looks at me
hesitantly. " I will call you." he nods. I close
the door and lock it. I take off my clothes
and get in bed and sleep instantly. I dream
about the rain falling down silently. The kind
of rain that doesn’t have thunder or
lightning. It just pours and I fall into a deep
slumber.
CHAPTER 75

MBUSO.
My life flashes before my eyes as I am
laying there and hearing coherent sounds
of people screaming. I can't die right now. I
can't leave my wife and kids. People are
around me and they talking fast. I have to
get up I have to call luh and tell her I'm
sorry. I should have listened to her when
she told me to let it go. She's going to kill
me.

I know I’m in the hospital and the doctor is

talking about them operating me. What is
wrong with me because I don’t feel any pain
in my body?. I feel cold liquid flowing in my
body and I lose consciousness.

I try to open my eyes but it's dark. I'm

surrounded by darkness and I have no idea
where I am. There's a peek of light
somewhere far away that I can make out in
that darkness. I look around to try and
make out what room that is and I spot
someone in a corner.

" who are you?." I ask them.

The thing about being inside or outside

somewhere where there is no light your
eyes automatically adjust until you able to
see things in the dark. The person stands
up and walks towards me. It is big and very
scary. fuck me!. Am I in hell? Am i already
dead?! Fuck No!.

" I asked you who the hell are you?."

The person stops just a few feet away from
me.

" I am your past conscious and everything

bad you have ever done. That right there is
your future?." he says pointing to where the
little light is peeking.

" what? my past how?." the person walks

closer and I realise it's not a person but a
shadow. " you are a fucken shadow!. Am I
in hell?."

" why do you think you are in hell?. Have

you done things that can make you end up
in hell?."

" is this a trick question? will my answer

determine if I am leaving this place?."
"Answer honestly and you just might leave
this place."

" ok my past. I have done many things that

certainly earn me a VIP ticket straight to
hell. I have hurt innocent people I have
killed those who were deserving to die and
those who maybe could have had a second
chance in life but I took that away from
them. I played God with their lives."

" what made you be the judge jury and

executioner in people's lives."
I pace around.

" I decided that because everyone who

wronged me knew what was going to
happen. They will die and I don't give
second chances."

" and what about you?. Why shouldn't you

die? Why do you deserve a second
chance?."
" you are my past but here you are judging
me and reminding me of the things I have
done why?. They are happened and I can't
undo that. I made many mistakes and I do
regret some of them but not most of them.
Whatever I did to me felt like it was the right
decision to me."

" I am here to remind you of what you have

done and possibly make you aware that
should you make the same mistakes again
what will happen to you and those you
love."

" I deserve another chance in life. I love my

family. My kids are still young and I am the
only man for luh. No one else!."
" are you sure about that?."
" I am sure about that!. Noman will take my
place in her heart and life. I learned from
my mistakes and this last one I made with
that mother fucker themba. Had I listen to
luh maybe I would be here talking to the
shadow of my past."

" come with me?." I feel myself moving.

" where are you taking me?."

" I want to show you what is going on now

as your laying in that bed."
I see myself laying on the hospital bed and I
don't look like me. I look very bad.

" I have seen myself so?."

" watch what is going on."

The door opens and luh comes in and my

heart breaks into pieces. I can feel her
devastation and most of all her fear. She is
afraid that I am going to die and leave her
alone with our kids. I watch her as she cries
and talks to me. I want to engulf her in my
arms and tell her that I am here and not
dead but I cant. All I can do is watch her
cry. Tears stream down my face. I never
wanted to hurt her like this. It was never my
intention.
She leaves and goes to the other room and
sleeps.

" Can I touch her?."

" no you can't. You are surrounded by
darkness and we can't taint her with it.
come."

We are now in the reception where my

whole family is gathered and luh is crying
blaming herself from what happened to me.
My wife thinks she has brought me nothing
but bad lucks which is not the truth. She
brought light life and love to my life.
Blessings only and hearing her say that is
breaking me inside.

" I can't keep watching this. I have to go

back to my family."

" which one?."

" what the hell do you mean which one?."

Everything becomes dark again then I see
luh again walking in my room and she looks
worse than the last time I saw her. God I
need to wake up!.

She's sleeping now and it seems like she's

having a nightmare cause she's crying a lot.

" You can’t be near her or even touch her. If

you do you will die the moment she feels
like you are near her."

The doctor with a nurse come in and they

inject luh with something. Scelo is ready to
kill someone and bonga is shouting at the
doctor. I watch her until she falls deep in
sleep.
" she's dreaming now and she's talking to
someone who's trying to save your life."

" who is it?."

" i don’t know."

" am I already dead?."

" the first time you died was when you

found yourself in that darkness. The
second time was when you saw me your
past. The third time was when I talked to
you."

" what?."
" yes. If it happens the fourth time then it
will determine if you are dying or you get a
second chance in life." I'm fucked!.
" how do I get another chance to live?."

" it's not up to me."

" watch."

My brother is walking in with another

person who looks just like me but he's also
nothing like me too. It is my twin brother.
They walk in and I watch him watching luh
and it's like I’m seeing myself standing
there with my wife the woman I love.
They talk and luh asks for his support to
make sure everyone listens to what she has
to say. They told him not touch her but he
still touches my wife? hmmm.

" He is your twin. You can't be jealous of

your brother."

" my brothers know that no one touches luh.

I don’t care if it's innocent or not. He might
be my twin brother but I don’t know him. He
could be worse or nothing like me."

" hmmm."

The next thing is her begging me to wake

up again cause she needs me and i can
hear it in her voice that she is close to
losing it. She holds my hand and cries a lot
and i notice that it is something she is doing
when she is alone. She doesn't want
anyone to see how truly broken she is. She
is putting a strong front in front of everyone
but inside she is breaking down.

We are in the reception area now and my

whole family is fighting. I am so shocked
because I never thought this was ever
going to happen. Luh is watching them and
she is heartbroken. How the hell does
everyone not see that my wife is not okay?.
How can they not see that she is drowning
and everything is placed on her shoulders?.

She's with our kids right now and she falls

asleep and sbonelo sleeps too but my little
man doesn't. He knows something is not
right cause he's watching her. Luh cries in
her sleep and my son frowns when he sees
a tear escaping. He wipes her tear then
pecks her cheek. he gets off the bed and
sbonelo wakes up. He sees him then
follows his brother. They close the door.

" that's enough now. Time to go back." my

past says.

" No!. I don’t want to go back!. I want to go

to my family now. My wife needs me!."

" She does need you but you have to see

this. "

I find myself in our house in Durban but

inside everything has changed. It's not the
same house I know and live in.

" what happened here?."

" Shhhh."

We walk to the kitchen and luh has her

back stirring something on the stove. My
sons walk in and they look so grown up
they are teenagers now and they look so
much like me. I smile but I know something
is not right about this whole situation. They
are wearing their school uniform and they
are ask for breakfast. Before she can
answer a beautiful little girl comes in
looking so much like luh it is scary. She
looks like she 6 years old my God my little
girl!.

She joins them and sits down and the luh

turns and she's heavily pregnant looking
beautiful but very tired. She plates for them
and asks where's their dad is at cause he's
going to be late. The little girl answers her
and tells her daddy is coming she says
looking behind her like she's seeing me and
I smile. However the person walks in from
another direction and I almost faint cause
that person is not me. It is my twin brother.
He walks up to luh and gives her a kiss on
the lips then he rubs her stomach. NO! NO!
NO! HELL FUCKEN NO!.

The little girl looks behind her again and our

eyes lock. She smiles and mouths I love
you daddy. I go to her and try to touch her
but I’m roughly pulled away and shoved into
the darkness hard.

" why did you show me that! why did you

stop me from touching her!."
" That was the future. You died!. You are no
longer part of their lives and as you can see
your brother stepped in for you and took
care of your family." my shadow says and I
scream yell curse and fall down on my
knees and cry so loud and hard.

" NO! NO! NO!. I can't die! I won't die. I'm

getting the fuck out of here!. If I am really
dead I swear to God no man will ever touch
my wife. I will make sure no man even lays
a finger to her. That's how much I love her.
She's my fucken soulmate and no one. I
mean no one will take my place in her even
my twin brother!. "

" are leaving you leaving because you saw

what is going to happen in the future?."
" I am leaving because I am done with the
past. All the bullshit I did I was doing it
because I was protecting the ones I love
and honestly I would do anything to protect
them nod yes I could have changed my
approach and some of the decisions but I
can't undo them now. I can only try to be
more of a deserving husband to my wife
and a great father to my kids. You are my
past and you stay there because that's
where you belong and you have nothing
new to show me but only remind me of my
mistakes. I am leaving you behind because
that's where you belong."

" have you forgiven everyone that wronged

you and asked for forgiveness to the one's
you wronged?."

" I am sorry to everyone I have wronged

and I hope they will forgive me wherever
they are. I forgive everyone who has
wronged me too and I hope in future I will
think carefully before I make any decisions."

" Do you mean what you say?."

" Shadow please! let me go to my family.

My wife needs me!. I need her please!. Why
was I even with you cause I saw nothing
from my past. Only what is going on right
now
Sponsored
why?.”

" Because you had to see that if you don't

change your ways you will lose your family
forever.”

" I am sorry."
" What do you......"

I feel my body being lifted up and thrown up

and the light blinds my eyes. It is too bright I
close my eyes and then open them again. I
am at the hospital still in bed. I remember
the horrific dream I had. I have to wake up
and find luh but I don't know where she is.
Why did the shadow say I'm sorry?.

I lift off my arm and remove the oxygen

mask off. I then take out the drip off my
hand and I feel better. Trying to sit up is a
struggle but I manage even though my
body is in pain. Machines start going off
and on and people come running inside.
" Mr Gumede you are awake and breathing
on your own?." it's the doctor I recognise
her voice.

" Is my family in there?."

" Mr gumede please stay in bed. We have

to run tests and see if you can walk and
everything else sir?." what the hell is she on
about?.

The door opens and frank comes in looking

scared then shocked to surprised. He
covers his face and then walks to me and
gives me a tight hug that hurts my chest but
I don't tell him that.

" Don't ever do this to me again man. I'm

too old for this shit."
" I know brother I know. Take me to my
wife."

" Mr Gumede sir please!."

I rip out all the monitors on my chest and
get off the bed.

" You can stand?...."

" get me some clothes. "

frank leaves then comes back with a bag
within minutes.

" leave I want to change."

" sir please!."

" doctor you're just wasting your breath."

" sir I will leave only on the condition that

first thing in the morning you will be here so
we can examine you."

" sure leave. Frank stay." they leave and

frank helps me put my clothes on. He has
seen me in worse situations than this one.

" take me to luh frank now please."

" what's wrong?."

" I don't know but something is not right."

He helps me and we walk out of the
hospital after i sign the papers that I
discharged myself. We get in the car and
frank drives like a crazy man. I ignore the
pain in my body because it is nothing
compared to the pain that keeps hitting my
heart. God what is wrong with my wife?.Luh
I'm coming baby. I'm coming.
The drive feels like it is taking forever. I look
at the time and it is after midnight. He finally
gets in this neighbourhood and drives for a
few minutes then calls his woman to open
the gate and we drive in and I get off the
car before he even parks the car.

I walk through the door and it looks like

everyone is here and they don't see me. I
look around but I don’t see luh.
" OH MY GOD MBUSO!." it's luh's aunt who
sees me the house gets silent and more
people come out of the kitchen and luh is
not one of them. I walk in.

" where is luh?." I ask them.

" Son how? when did you wake up?!." that's

my dad.

" she's sleeping mbuso?."

" show me."

He turns and I follow him. My heart gets

filled with so much dread and fear it almost
cripples me. He stops outside this door and
I grab the handle take a deep breath before
I turn the handle and it doesn’t move. The
door is locked and now I know something is
really wrong.

" give me your knife." he takes out his

pocket knife and I pick the lock until it clicks
open. I turn and look at him.

" I don’t want anyone coming here until

myself or Luh comes out or unless
something is wrong with the kids. No one
bonga."

" what's going on brother?."

" promise me?."

" I promise."
I get in and lock the door then switch the
lights on and say a little prayer. I turn and
she’s not on the bed. I walk to the bathroom
and I hear water running in there. She must
be showering and I open the bathroom door
and I can hear her crying silently. My eyes
immediately get filled with tears. I open the
door wider and she looks up alarmed and
she’s in the bath. When she sees it is me
and not anyone else and she closes her
eyes and wails. I close the door walk in
closer and she is naked in the bath and
there’s blood between her thighs and down
her legs. I hold the edge of the bathtub and
get on my knees and I let my years fall.

I know it’s not her monthly period because

she hasn’t he those in years. I know she
had an implant planted oh her arm so she
won’t fall pregnant and I was okay with that
because our kids are still young and she
has been through a lot. Right now she’s
loosing our baby or she has already lost it. I
lean over the bath and embrace my wife
and allow her to let out all the pain she is
feeling. My tears also fall and I cry with her.
We both mourn for our child we lost that we
didn’t know we were expecting.

“ we must….go to the…..hospital love. ” I

say whimpering

“ It’s too late mbuso. I tried to hold on but I

just had… .. It was… . One sharp pain
and… ”

“ shhhhh it’s okay love. It’s okay baby. I am

sorry. I am so sorry.”
“ I didn’t know Phakathwayo I swear…. I
didn’t know I was pregnant. ” she wails so
hard holding tight to me and I pull her out of
the tub sit with her on my lap and hold her
like a little baby.

“ Do you want me to call the women in the

house?.” She shakes her head roughly.

“ don’t!.... I… . Don’t want anyone to know.

Not now.”

“ ok baby but you need to go to the hospital

and get cleaned. Can we at least tell our
parents then?. ” she looks at me.

“ not now mbuso please!. Ok baby ok. Are

you in pain? What must I do now?.”
“ Run me a bath and if you can get me
Ibuprofen. Why did you leave the hospital?.
”

“ When I woke up I knew something was

wrong with you but I didn’t know what so. I
discharged myself and left with Frank.”

“ Thank you for being here. ”

“ I wish I would have come sooner.” I say

regrettably.

“ it was meant to be. ”

“ No baby don’t say that. You didn’t have to

go through that at all. You didn’t deserve it.”
“ I will explain later mbuso. I will need a pad
though and we’ll go to the hospital in the
morning.”

“ ok love. Can you stand up?.” She nods. “

please help me get up. She stands and
some of the blood is still flowing down her
legs. I get on my knees wrap my arms
around her waist and plant kisses on her
stomach. She kisses the top of my
bandaged head. It’s a struggle to get up but
I eventually do. I pull her face and give her
a kiss.

“ Your pants are bloody. ” she says.

“ I love you luh. I love you more than you’ll

ever know.”
“ I was scared baby. I thought you were
going to die and leave me and the kids it…
” when she says that I remember the
dream I had.

Was that our daughter that told me she

loves me?. Was she saying goodbyes to
me?. Does it mean luh was carrying a baby
that looked exactly like her. God why did it
have to happen to this wonderland woman.
When is she going to get a break and just
be happy?.

“ I would give anything in this world to take

away the pain you are feeling right now. I
just want you to be happy lungile. It hurts to
see you crying every time never of the
things that are done to you. I wish God and
our ancestors will for once allow us to be
happy. Just once baby that’s all I wish for
us.”

I hold her tighter and tighter because I don’t

want to let her go but I do. I fill the tub with
water and help her get in.

“ Where’s your phone?.”

“ I don’t know where it is. I think I lost it in

the hospital I’m not sure but yours is in the
bedroom. Who are you going to calling?. ”

“ Frank love to get you some sanitary

towels.”

“ He might find them at the garage.”

I go to the bedroom and now hat I look
closer I see that there’s blood on the
sheets. The pain must have woken her up.

I look around and see my phone on the

coffee table. I take it and call Frank.

“ are you okay?.”

“ I’m fine. Listen man can you get me some

sanitary towels at the garage for heavy
bleeding. Make sure no one sees you when
you come back. The bedroom we are in is
the last one on the left side of the house.
Knock on the window and bring some
ibuprofen.”

“ G what’s going on?. ” he hasn’t called me

that in years.
“ Luh had a miscarriage. ” he sighs deeply.

“ I am sorry man you know I’ve got you.” He

hangs up. What he also means is I won’t
tell anyone.

I put the phone down and remove all the

bedding and there are no blood stains in
the bed. I cover the sheet with the duvet
and out it in the corner somewhere. I will
burn it.

I open the chest drawer and look through it

and find the bedding. I cover the bed with
sheets and a duvet on top. There’s a light
tap on the window and I open it. He gives
me a big plastic and I frown.
“ I know you two are going to lock
yourselves in and so I brought some snacks
and other things. I found a 24 hour shop
that has things she will need.”

“ thanks brother. I appreciate it.”

“ give luh my love and call me when you

need something.”

“ we are going to the hospital in the

morning. I’ll call you to take us.”

“ ok G. Be strong.” He leaves and I close

the window. I take off my clothes take the
pills in the bag then walk to the bathroom
and she’s still crying. I take the cup that is
on the base rinse it and full it water.

“ drink this love. ” she takes the pills and

drinks them. I the get in behind her and pull
her to me.

“ There’s blood in the water.”

“ I know baby.”

We stay like that in the water until it gets

cold then we step out and I dry her up and
myself. I walk her to the bedroom and take
out the things f rank brought.
He brought pyjamas underwear and many
sanitary towels. I help her wear the
underwear she takes the pad and put it on
her panty and wears it.
“ Is it the right size?.” She nods. I help her
again with her pyjamas and tuck her in bed.
“ I’ll be back as soon as I’m done cleaning
the bath.

“ Okay.” I look at her then go clean the

bathroom. I scrub everywhere where there
is blood through my tears that won’t stop
falling. When I am done I get in and shower
quickly then leave. I walk to the bedroom
and she’s sleeping now. I sit next to her and
watch her sleeping in a foetus position. I get
in bed and roll her on top of me. My body
might be in pain but it’s nothing to how
she’s feeling right now.
CHAPTER 76
CHAPTER 76.
MBUSO.
I didn't sleep at all last night even though my
body was in pain and begging me to just let it
rest but I couldn't. I held my wife and watched
her all night. I don 't understand how life can be
so cruel to her. This wonderful person who
always wants what is best for everyone she
loves. Can she just enjoy her life and family?. I
just hope this was one last thing we had to go
through because I don't think she is going to be
able to handle something else that will break her
heart.
She cried again in her sleep and I'm worried that
maybe she's never going to be the same again. I
know she can talk to me but bow she really
needs a professional who will also help and I
also understand why she doesn't want everyone
to know. They are going to feel pity for her and
that might just make things hard for her. She
will tell them when she is ready and when we
have dealt with it.
I am devastated that we lost our baby we didn't
know she was carrying. Had I have known I
wouldn't have done anything that will put my
life in danger. I hope she can forgive me for the
pain I put her through these last few days. I
softly move her head on my arm and place it
softly on the pillow.
I go to the bathroom and fill the tub with water
and nothing else. I don't think its a wise idea to
put some bath salts in there. I stand there and
watch the water rising and the only thing I can
see is watching her there alone crying and losing
our child. I have to do something about this.
I close the faucet and go back to the bedroom
and I find her sitting up. knees on her chest head
buried on her knees and her arms are wrapped
around her knees and she’s grabbing them tight.
" love?." she looks up startled. She doesn't look
good.
" You're really here?." I sit next to her on the
bed.
" I am love. I can never be anywhere else other
than here with you."
" I thought I was dreaming you know....that I
wasn't losing our baby."
" I wish I would have arrived sooner....maybe
we wouldn’t have lost our baby. Come here."
" You're hurt and limping. "
" That's nothing."
" let me go change the pad. "
" I ran a bath for you."
" let me go take a bath then."
" The water can wait. I want to hold my wife
now." She gets up and wraps he legs around my
waist and we hold each other tight in
comfortable silence. I almost died and lost this
feeling of her in my arms and her love.
" You are my world my everything." I kiss her
hair.
" What would you do without me?."
" The day you got kidnapped and almost died I
knew I can never live in this world without you.
I'll follow you anywhere luh even in death."
" I believe you." she says. " Can I go bath
now?."
" yeah we have to go to the hospital."
" baby?."
" yes love?." she keeps quiet for a while. " can
we not tell everyone what happened. I don't
want them looking at me with sympathy in their
eyes feeling sorry for me."
" only frank knows and we know he's not going
to tell anyone. We will tell them when you have
healed and ready to talk about it."
" Thank you baby." She gives me a kiss and
goes to the bathroom. I get up and make the bed.
I hear something falling or being placed on the
floor. I walk to it unlock it and then open it. I
see a bag on the floor I take it and close the
door. I put it on the bed open it and look inside
and it's our clothes. I put them on the bed then
go to the bathroom. Luh is done and she's
drying herself. I stand behind her and look at her
through the mirror.
" Stress is not good for you love. I hate what it
does to you."
" We'll be fine baby. All of this will pass."
" there's a bag with our clothes on the bed.
Someone left it outside the door for us."
" Maybe lumka brought the bag since we left it
at mbuyiselo's place."
" how is mabutho?."
" he's okay. You are the only one that got hurt."
her eyes get filled with tears. So themba is still
alive.
" I'm not going to kill him but you have to know
that before the accident he said he's going to go
to the police and tell them about every little
shady thing I have ever done." she turns and
looks at me.
" so that means if we let him go and do nothing
to him that means he's still going to go to the
police?."
" he will love."
" so what do you want to do?."
" I learned my lesson love trying to do things
my way and look what happened. I don't want
anyone else's blood on my hands. Maybe i
should let it go and see if he will go to the police
or not."
" that's not going to happen. We will find a way
to shut him up. There is no way we are going to
let him talk to the police."
" should I be scared?."
" no baby. Are you going to let the kids see you
with the bandage?."
" That will scare them and I'm not sure if they
have seen my brother and how they have reacted
to him. They might think he is me. I have to
have this bandage removed."
She goes to the bedroom then comes back with
her clothes and I watch her wearing them.
" I think so too baby but they are going to be
very happy to see you."
" I miss my boys too."
" baby?."
" Luh don't do this to yourself baby please."
" but you don't know what I want to say."
" we both know. Don't stress yourself about the
gender of the baby we lost. We will have many
more little gumede's running around when you
are ready"
" you mean that?."
" only if you still want us to have more kids. If
not I will ask you to give me one more only."
" whatever kids God and our ancestors bless us
with we will have them baby but can we agree
that we will have only four kids only?."
" really?." she smiles.
" really baby. This family needs more women
cause it is full of men and we can't let you out
number us."
Why would life want to hurt my beautiful kind
hearted wife?. This is not fair at all.
" I'm going to shower love. Are you going to go
to the kitchen and have breakfast?."
" I want to see our kids but I'm not ready to see
anyone else. Can we leave before anyone sees
us?." she look away from me.
" Even if they do I'll tell them we have to be
somewhere." I look at her then i get in the
shower. I know my wife is hurt and her not
wanting to see anyone is justifiable but I know
her and I know she's avoiding someone.
Does she not get along with my birth mother or
she’s caught between the two of them and
maybe they are making things difficult for her?.
I would hate for that to happen because I think
my family knows that I will always choose luh
above anyone else. It doesn't matter who it is.
I step out of the shower and she's waiting for
me. She looks so lost. She takes the towel and
dries me and when she done she moisturizes me.
" Your body has many bruises cuts and....." she
stands and looks at me. " I was scared that you
were never going to walk because the doctor
said your the bones protecting your spinal
movement had shifted or something but here
you are. Standing here next to me and I still
can't believe it." My god!.
" they said that?."
" they did love and I was scared but I told
myself that it doesn't matter if you can't walk
lose your arm or eye as long as you are alive
here with me and our children. That's all that
matters to me. I love you in all ways that you
are. You are my one and only. No one else but
you."
I palm her cheek. I can sell my soul for her. To
be with her everyday of my life.
" You do know that my love for you has crossed
the line of possessiveness and other things. I
live and breath you."
" I am obsessed with you too baby. I may not
show it the way you do but I am." I smile.
She helps me put my clothes on and shoes and I
try to not show her how in pain I am.
" lets go so you can also be checked. Is frank
going to take us?."
" yes love."
" what if they get in when we are not here and
they see the sheets where....."
" love?." she looks at me. " can I at least tell my
mom she would know what to do cause I don't
want us to do anything wrong and we know
she's also good at keeping secretes."
" just make her promise that she won't tell
anyone. I also have to tell you something."
" baby you know that what happened isn't your
fault right?."
" mbuso....."
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" I don't want you to feel shame
love."
" I don't. Let's go sit on the bed so I can
explain to you."
She takes my hand and leads me to the
bedroom. We sit and she begins to tell me
everything about the dream she had with
my great grand mother. She tells me that I
have an uncle and that mbuyiselo mabutho
and mthunzi are my cousins. Lumka is my
niece and her mother is my cousin too.
" did you tell the whole family?."
" I told them yesterday." huh?.
" you had the dream the same night i was
admitted but you waited before you told
them why?." she looks away. now " what
are you hiding from me?."
" It doesn't matter love. They now know and
that's all that matters."
" love?"
" no baby let it go." it's either she's scared
of the person or she's scared what I will do.
" ok fine. What did dad say and did the
twins agree?." her lip curves into a smile.
That’s what I want to see.
" those are your moms baby and dad
agreed and asked to talk to your moms."
" are my moms talking though to each
other?."
" they are even though there's tension
between them. We will see how things go
but I just hate to see that she's being
excluded. I don't like that phakathwayo." I
nod. It hurts to hear that and I understand
but still. This whole thing sucks.
I can see that she's trying to fight the tears
that are threatening to fall but they still do. I
sooth her back.
" talk to me love. What else did gogo say?."
she looks at me cries. " It's okay love you
can tell me. I'm here now." I wipe her tears.
" She said....she said that someone will die.
A life for a life." she looks at me.
" Oh my God an eye for an eye. She meant
that someone was going to have to die so I
can live." I cover my face with my hands.
My dream now makes sense. The little girl I
saw was our baby girl saying goodbye to
me.
" Our baby sacrificed her life so I can live.
She died for me to live again."
" I think it's better it happened to us than...
You think our baby was a girl?." If I tell her
that I saw a mini her it’s going to hurt her
very much. So I won’t.
" I think we would have had a girl but if not
us then who love?!. You didn't deserve this
at all luh stop saying that."
" if it wasn't me then it was going to be
Sims. She's pregnant baby and if they lost
the baby I'm afraid they wouldn't have
made it. It hurts so bad to lose our child
mbuso but our ancestors chose us because
they knew we can get through past this
together."
" why didn't the person who started this
whole thing die love! why did it have to
happen to us?."
" because we are stronger than we think.
Many things have happened to us that were
suppose to break us apart but we didn't. We
are still standing strong. Together."
I kneel in front of her and look at her
beautiful face.
" you are stronger than you think. Life has
been unkind to you and very unfair. I want
all of that to change starting now. I am here
right now because of you love. I am this
proud man I am because of you and no one
else. You are carrying this family on your
shoulders and somehow everyone just
expects you to be okay and bring everyone
together. Gogo said you are the only who
can bring this messed up family together
but did they think at what cost?. our
children’s lives love?."
" Don't say it like that phakathwayo. We
don't know what the future holds for this
family but our ancestors entrusted me to
bring this whole family together and that's
what we are going to do. You are going to
help me."
" love...."
" mbuso I came to this family to make it
grow from that it is not break it apart."
" the Gumede family love."
" both of them baby. They are your
maternal family love and they also need to
be acknowledged in you and your brothers
lives baby and especially our marriage. We
can't recognise only one side of your family
when we have found the other one that was
missing."
" You're right love."
" you also have to do what that old sbu's
girlfriend grandmother told you. I don't want
our kids or future kids be left with this whole
mess when we have passed on."
" she chose to tell you this message cause
she knew you would see it through that it
happens. I am so blessed to have you yaz."
she smiles.
" lets go and get checked up."
She helps me stand and I pull her tight to
my chest. She inhales me.
" don’t ever leave me mbuso."
" never love."
We walk to the dining room and they are
having breakfast. I have my arm around luh
and she's holding me tight. They are smiling
eating and they look so happy while we are
miserable.
" Morning." we both greet them. They look
at us smiling. The dining room is filled with
almost everyone but I don 't see my mom. I
mean bonga's mom.
" We are so happy to see you out of the
hospital son." my dad says.
" we are going somewhere. We will be
back." I answer him and he sighs.
" how are you feeling mbuso?." my birth
mother asks sitting next to my dad. I look at
luh and she's looking at the man i assume
is my uncle and she keeps shifting. I move
my eyes away from my mother and look at
my uncle who's eyes are on my wife. They
move away from her and he looks at me
and he is shocked to see me starring at him
and he smiles. I don't. I bet he's the reason
why luh is hiding something from me.
I gently move luh's hands on me and walk
to my birth mom who stands up. She has
tears in her eyes and they stream down. I
touch her for the first time wiping her tears
away and she begins to cry. I embrace her
in my arms and let her cry.
" I am happy to finally have met you mama."
she hugs me tighter and i brush her back
until she stops. I would love for us to talk
but we have to go to the hospital.
Frank gets up takes luh's hand and they
walk out.
" I love you mbuso. I never thought I will
ever see you again and I was dreaming of
this moment. I am so happy."
" I love you too." I feel her smile.
" son?." it's luh's dad. " is luh okay?." he's
concerned.
" she's still emotional that’s all."
I pull my mother from my arms and look at
her.
" we will talk when we have time."
" I would like that."
I look at my twin brother and he stands up
we meet halfway. We look so much alike
since I don't have a beard and he doesn't
have one either.
" you look like me." we both say at the
same time then we look at each other and
laugh. We bro hug tight and somehow that
does something to me.
" we'll talk."
" I know something is wrong with her. I
could feel it too." he whispers in my ear
and I look at him and frown.
" we will talk." he nods.
My uncle stands up and I give him a hug
too to be polite. I will also have a talk with
him.
They also introduce me to the younger
version of mbuyiselo mthunzi. He reminds
me of my younger brother zipho who hasn't
looked at me and my uncle's wife who's not
their birth mother. I hug all the brothers
including my own brothers. I'm worried
about bonga
" where's my mother?." my dad clenches
his jaw.
" she's in the kitchen. I can call her." my
mother says.
" its okay ma. I'm just wondering why she's
not here with all of you?."
" she's not needed here!." my uncle says. I
knew he was going to say something.
" hmmmm. The kids?."
" with the nannies and moms."
" sis nonto is here?."
" her too." I nod. I'm glad she was here for
luh.
" where are you two going?." my dad asks.
" out."
" mbuso..."
" not now baba. Brothers we'll talk when i
come back. Zipho walk me out." he follows
me.
" where's your girl?."
" she's in Soweto."
" get a car and go get her. we are flying
home when I come back."
" home where?."
" Durban."
" she's coming with us?."
" unless you don’t want her to."
" I do bhuti. I..."
" I am okay ntwana. It wasn't your fault. Go
and get your girl."
I get in the car and pull my wife to me and
frank drives out.
CHAPTER 77
CHAPTER 77.
MBUSO.
We have arrived at the hospital and we are
waiting for my doctor who is finishing her
surgery. Luh has her face hidden in my chest. I
know she's worried that the doctor is really
going to tell us that we lost our child. I do wish
a miracle can happen right now and they will
tell us that she's didn't have a miscarriage but
deep down I know it's not possible. To think she
was carying my princess who looked exactly
like her mom was unbelievable but I do hope
when we get pregnant again we will have girls.
The doctor comes out and she looks at us
surprised and walks to us.
" I didn't think you were going to show up. I am
glad you have though. Uhm nurse please take
them to a room. I am going to change please
follow her." We get up and follow the nurse to
the room then she begins taking stuff out. The
doctor comes in.
" Mr gumede please wear this so we can go and
do a full body scan. From your head to your
body. I'm very concerned that you just up and
left sir. You could have hurt yourself but they
way look it seems as if everything is alright but
I still have to be a hundred percent sure." she
talks too much.
" Doctor can you get us a gynaecologist ." she
looks at my wife.
" Mrs Gumede whats wrong?."
" She miscarried in the early hours of the
morning."
" My God why didn't you bring her here at that
moment...." she looks at the nurse. " Page Dr
Ndaba and tell him to come here and bring me
two wheelchairs." the nurse nods and leaves. "
Mrs gumede please get in there and change so
you can get cleaned up and given medicaton but
I'm sure Ndaba willl start with the ultra sound to
see if you really had a miscarriage."
" do you want me to help you?."
" I'll be fine." I kiss her and she goes to the
bathroom.
" How much do I owe the hospital?."
" Your wife settled everything when she got
here. Even more than she should have. I will
talk to the hospital's H.R and ask them to return
the sum that was not used."
" no keep it. Use it on people are going to need
help only."
" Thank you sir. I was worried about your wife.
I could see that something was wrong with her
but I just thought it was stress and fear of losing
her husband."
" its fine." Another woman comes in and I think
she’s the doctor. My wife comes out of the
bathroom too.
" Mr and Mrs Gumede this is Dr Ndaba one of
our gynaecologist and she's the best. Doctor mrs
gumede thinks she had a miscarriage during
midnight."
" nice to meet you. Mrs gumede please lay on
the bed. The nurses are bringing the scan so we
can see what actually happened. Do you
want your husband here?."
" I'm not going anywhere." I get up and hold her
hand.
" Nurse let me know when they are done and
take mr gumede to the ex-ray room." she leaves
then two nurses come in with a machine and
leave after. The other nurse checks her blood
pressure and other things.
" Mrs gumede were you on birth control before
you fell pregnant?."
" I was doctor and I.....I didnt know I was
pregnant."
" what kind of birth control were you using?."
" I had the implant on my arm." she looks at me.
" how long have you had it?." she keeps writing
down.
" six months after I had my boys it's almost
three years now."
" yeah i guess it was reaching it's expirering date
and most women do fall pregant on their last
year when the implant has to be removed and
for some they fall pregnan as soon as they have
it and others even if they have it and in your
case on the last year."
" So it's not because it wasn't working?."
" if it wasn't you would have fallen pregnant
two years ago." she sighs.
" it's okay love."
" please lift the gown up." I help her lift the
gown up and the doctor squirts the gel on her
stomach and looks at the screen.
" do you feel any pain like you want to go to the
toilet?."
" No i don't feel any of that." the doctor nods.
" are you bleeding heavily?."
" at first I was but now I'm not."
" There is a sign that you were pregnant mrs
gumede and I am sorry mr and mrs gumede but
you lost your baby." She looks at the both of us.
" looks of it you were a month old into your
pregnancy...." Luh closes her eyes and grips my
hand really tight. "....the uteras is now empty
and it doesn't look like you will need surgery.
We usually do a minor surgery if you have
heavy bleeding significant pain or if there are
sighns of infection in your uteras but that won't
be neccesary."
" so everything is okay with my wife?."
" it is mr gumede. We have what we call ' watch
and wait " expectant or natural management that
we recomend in early pregnancy. What it means
is you can either go home or stay here at the
hospital until the pregnancy tissue has passed
itself from your womb. It can happen quickly or
it may take a few weeks but in your case mrs
gumede I don't see the need to keep you here.
However mr gumede please make sure that she
doesn't do anything strenious that will put
pressure to her uteras or even stress." I nod.
" will I still be able to have kids?."
" of course you will. You are young mrs
gumede and perfectly healthy. I don't know how
you miscarried but things like these happen.
You will have many more kids. As much as you
want to have. All I can advise is maybe don't be
intimate for atleast a month so she can heal mr
gumede." what the hell? A whole fucken
month?.
" Thank you doctor." I say. She wipes the gel on
luh's stomach.
" Here is your medication that you will collect
from the pharmacy before you leave. It will help
you." she says and leaves.
" hey don't cry love. We will get through this
together I promise you." I wipe her tears. She
sits up. I wrap my arms around her and let her
cry.
" Some part of me just thought.....maybe just
maybe there's a slight chance...."
" I wished that too love. Go get dressed." she
goes to the bathroom to change and I wipe my
misty eyes.
She comes out and I go in to change too. I come
out she's with the nurse and she makes me sit on
the wheel chair and they wheel me out to the ex-
ray room where the doctor is already waiting for
me.
They put me in the ex-ray machine I lay down
and it moves over me. It moves up and down
until it stops. They move me of it into the wheel
chair and back to the room we were in. I go to
the bathroom and change back to my clothes.
" mr gumede." she says when i walk out closing
the bathroom door. " sit please so we can
remove the bandage."
I sit on the bed and let her cut it off. I can feel
air on my face.
" Your CT-Scan shows that your brain has
reduced to its' normal size and what shocked us
as well was that your vetebrae bones have also
pushed themselves back in line. Mr gumede
when you came here we took you to ex-ray sh
we can see what damages we were facing and it
was scary because you are suppose to be
immobile right now. But then you woke and
started walking and now the ex-ray show that
you are perfectly fine like there was nothing
wrong with you and that is still shocking. It
almost seems as if the ex-ray results were not
showing us your results."
" Since there's nothing wrong with me then we
would like to leave."
" here is your prescription medicine and please
mr gumede if you feel any headaches dizzyness
and even nauseous please come back to the
hospital. This is my card." she gives it to me and
I look at luh she takes it.
" we don't live here and we are flying to durban
tonight."
" thought as much. Here is a card of the doctor
you will see on monday. I told him about you
and he will have your full file by monday. Mrs
gumede please make sure he attends all hi
appointments."
" I will doctor. thank you." We all walk out.
We go to the pharmacy and collect our
medication. Frank takes it from us.
" Mrs gumede? Mrs gumede?." we stop walking
and turn. It's a security guard. " uhm good
morning mr gumede mrs gumede and sir..." he
says to frank.
" can we help you?." Frank asks.
" mrs gumede i found your phone and I have
been looking for you yesterday but I didn't see
you so I kept it in the office. I didn't want to
give it to anyone in case they steal it or do
something. Here it is."
" Thank you so much mr nsele. I didn't realise I
had lost it."
" thank you mfo." I shake his hand. I look at
frank and he takes out some notes and gives
them to him.
" oh no sir i was just doing my job." he looks
like a young honest hardworking man.
" you like working here?." he looks around.
" It pays my bills sir. That's all that matters." he
hates it.
" How long have you been working on
security?." I ask him.
" five years now."
" what you think frank?."
" take my numbers and send me your names and
ID. We might just hire you and pay you well so
you can definetly dress well." he looks at us
shocked.
" oh thank you sir. I will call you on my lunch
hour." he shakes our hands excluding and nods
politely at luh then he leaves.
" where do you want to place him after we've
checked him out?."
" we 'll see. Percy has been slacking on his job
and I think it's time he got a wake up call."
" sure man." we get in the car and drive back to
the house.
" did you rent the house?."
" sims and bonga did. why?."
" are you okay if we buy it." she looks at me.
" really?."
" yes love. We lost our child there and I dont
want someone else to have it."
" I would like that. It can be one of the boys for
when they grow up."
" I'll ask bonga to send me the details of the
estate agent."
We arrive at the house and luh is asleep. When
frank parks the car I shake luh softly but she is
deep in sleep. Frank opens the door for her.
" she's sleeping. Hold the door for me while I
carry her out." he does.
I gently lift her to my lap she brushes her nose
on my neck then sighs. I step out carrying her
and walk to the house and it looks like I have
just walked in on a meeting. They look tense
and the tension is too much.
" Is she okay?."
serif; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" Is she okay?."
" She needs to sleep that's all.
Mamakamo?...." she stands up and walks
to me. Can you please make her something
to eat?."
" I will bhuti. Can I make you some
aswell?."
" Please do and bring it to the
bedroom." she nods. I turn and walk.
" mbuso?." that's my dad.
" after you put luh in bed come and join us."
" I'm tired and I want to sleep before we go
home."
" we are going home?." my uncle asks
" Yes to durban."
" but we didn't talk about it?."
" were we suppose to talk about it
malume?." he looks at me then looks away.
" did the doctor say you can leave?." my
dad asks.
" I said so baba excuse me." I turn and walk
away.
I get in and put luh on bed. I notice that the
bedding I had left in the corner is gone.
FUCK!. I cover luh with the throw blanket
close the door and walk to the living room.
" who was in the bedroom we slept in?!."
They look at each other.
" why what happened?." my birth mother
asks
" I think I saw...." sims tries to explain but
my mother walks in the living room and she
looks like she was crying.
" mbuso?."
" mah?."
" come with me."
I follow her as she walks out of the house
and we go to the backyard and there's a
beautiful outdoor space. We sit down.
" You have been crying why?." she sniffs. "
mah what happened happened and we
can't change the past. I am hurt that you did
that but seeing death starring me in the
face made me realise that I don't want to
spend the rest of my life angry at you
holding a grudge. I am thankful to have
another second chance in life to be with my
family and that includes you."
" Please forgive me son. I am so sorry."
" I forgive you mama. I forgave you I just
didn't tell you." she looks at me and begin's
to cry.
" Please stop crying ma." she shakes her
head.
" It's not that. I didn't know that you were
back. When I woke up I went to your
bedroom and knocked but there was no
answer. I turn to leave when I saw your
father and he told me you left with luh."
" did you want something ma?."
" I wanted to apologize to you both and I got
in cause i wanted to leave something for
you and then I...."
" and what?."
" it doesn't matter now. I saw the duvet on
the floor and I thought that maybe luh
wanted them washed and I opened them so
i can sort them before washing them when I
saw the blood...." she cries.
" I knew when i woke up that something
was wrong with her. I tried to be here for
here but I was too late. She was in the bath
ma alone crying and losing our child...." I
lean back and cover my face. " I have seen
my wife in many ways ma but seeing her in
that state losing our child it broke me and i
cried with her." fuck! just thinking about it
makes me want to scream and cry outloud.
" I know mbuso it was because of me. You
are being punished for my mistakes. the
things I did to you and your mother."
" I was angry ma as to why it happened to
us and not bonga and sims then luh said it
was better us than my brother because she
knew that if sims had a miscarriage then
maybe their marriage wouldn't survive." she
nods.
" Yaz mbuso I hope you know what a
precious gem you have in your life. Many
people don't get to be blessed the way you
have been blessed with her. I hope and
pray my son that no matter what happens
you will never ever be the man you were
before you met her and the first few months
after you met her. Promise me you will
never change towards her and you will
continue to always worship the ground she
walks on and you will always look at her the
same way you do now."
" I will ma. Luh is the only woman for me. I
see no other ngaphandle kwakhe mama."
" I hope none of you will be punished for my
mistakes. I would rather they punish me
than my children."
" Lets hope it won't happen to anyone else
again ma. What did you do with the
sheets?."
" I put them inside the refuse bag. They are
in your closet. We have to tell her dad and
aunt your dad too and aunt so you will have
a cleansing ceremony."
" I know ma but can we just keep it between
us until luh is ready to tell everyone."
" ok baby but then we have to burn the
sheets and the house will have to be
cleansed.”
“ I know. We will find someone to help us.” I
tell her.
" I feel like an outsider a stranger in my own
family. I feel like I don't belong here with
everyone. I feel like my presence is making
everyone uncomfotable."
" I'm sorry to hear that ma. I wish they
wouldn't do that but I also understand
where they are coming from."
" I know baby and I don't blame them. I
brought this to myself and I must suffer for
it. I have accepted that."
" I think they will forgive you as time goes
when they see what kind of woman and
mother you are. Ma I have killed people I
have hurt people and you know some of
that but you have never judged me or made
me feel like I am a killer and I am not going
to do that to you too. You have loved me
unconditionally and I think I am able to love
my wife they way I love her because of how
she respects me and loves me. I have
always watched how you love dad and
respect him. Him too that's why I always put
her first. I learned from dad too how to love
a woman and I did that when I found luh. I
know dad still loves you no matter what and
he will forgive you. My brothers will too."
My birth mother walks to us carrying a tray
with three cups of coffee and she looks
unsure if she should join us or go back to
the house. I stand up and let her sit where I
was. i take the tray from her and put it on
the table. I am going to call her mom cause
ma is always going to be ma.
" You too have been out here for a while
and i thought I should join. I hope I'm not
intruding and I brought some coffee cause it
looks like it's going to rain."
" Thank you ma for the coffee." I'm really
hungry though. " How are you?." i ask her.
" thank you wami." she smiles at her sister.
That makes me think that maybe we will all
get along.
" I am happy to see my whole family but
most of all seeing you again." we keep
quiet. " It just feels so weird cause the last
time I saw your dad I was pregnant with you
and my sister here well we know what
happened."
" I'm sorry wami for ruining your life wanting
to kill you and your kids. I want you to know
that I have never forgotten what I did to
you. Everytime I looked at myself in the
mirror I asked myself where is the person
who looks exactly like me and I would look
at mbuso and guilt will eat me alive but as
the years went by I managed to live with it
and i thought I will die with this secret but
now I am happy cause there are no more
secretes I am hiding. Wami I hope one day
you and busani will forgive me."
" I was angry for years sebe. I hated you for
years vut then I asked God to help me
forgive you cause the anger I was holding
on to had a hold on my life. I wouldn't allow
myself to be happy or be loved and once I
made peace with it and forgave you I
moved on but sometimes it would hit me
out of nowhere and I would be back to that
space again so for me to not go back to that
place I meditate. It helps me alot." I nod.
" I am just happy to have you in my life and
I know we will get to know each other as
time goes. What I want to know though is
what do you both think about what luh told
you?. What dad has to do regarding paying
amalobola?." I look at them both.
" He basically told us that when he goes to
pay amalobola he's going to pay for both of
us." my birth mother says.
" and how do you feel about that?." She
looks down and smiles.
" your dad was my first love mbuso and
seeing him hearing him say that brought
back all those feelings I had for him."
" mom are you married?."
" no I'm not."
" but you have someone in your life right?."
" I do." she says looking away.
" does dad know?."
" he doesn't." I wonder what he's to say
about that.
" do you love the man you're with now?."
" I thought I did but now after seeing your
dad again I'm not sure." I look at my ma.
" ma wena?."
" I want your mother and dad to have what
they should have had all those years ago. I
love your dad very much but I want to step
aside and let them have their happily ever
after. They deserve it."
" do you mean it?." my mom asks her. Ma
takes her hand in hers and they lace them
together.
" I do mean it wami. This is your second
chance to be with the man you have always
loved and saw your future with. I promise
you that I won't cause troublr or stand in
your way. I will also give him a divorce so
the both of you can get married." they both
get teary.
" thank you." mom says.
" no wami don't thank me. I'm the one who
is suppose to thank you for being kind to
me and forgiving me. Thnak you and I hope
some day when you trust me again we will
have a relationship."
" I would like that too."
" I was scared when mom came here. I
thought you were going to throw the coffee
on her." she laughs.
" I'm old mbuso I don't do that anymore. I
am a grandmother." she laughs.
" I love you. The both of you and I want you
to be present for eveything all our kids
celebrate. I want you to be there and they
must grow up with their grandmothers
around because we didn't have that when
we grew up and now you have to change
that because I only have the two of you and
I don't want to chose and I never will. My
kids need you and speaking of which I miss
them and I am hungry."
" how old are they?." mom asks.
" They will be four next month." i say.
" I can't wait to celebrate their birthday."
she's excited.
" it's going to be their first birthday with us
there. I also have never have been with
them on their birthday."
" because we have never done a
celebration Luh bakes them their cakes and
we sing to them. I will talk to her though and
hear what she says."
" okay son." I smile.
" I love you both but right now I miss my
kids and wife."
It's raining now and I guess we are going to
have to fly tomorrow. I'll ask sbu later. I get
up kiss and hug both of them and leave
them there talking.
CHAPTER 78

MBUSO.

I know both of my mom's still have a long

road for them to be able to have what they
once had. I am very hopeful that as time
goes on we will be a one big happy family
but for that to happy it is all on dad's hands.
He's the one who has to decide what he's
going to do with both of them. I love my
birth mother very much but hearing mother
say that she will step aside to give my mom
and dad a chance to be try and fix things
between them didn't sit well with me. I know
she loves my dad very much and dad
worships the ground she walks on well he
used to but I know he still does.
Everyone is still in the living room talking
about themselves. Both my mother's come
in too and sit down. Zipho though isn't back
I hope he will because we are leaving
tonight.
" Uhm everyone cann I have your
attention?." They look at me." I would like to
thank you for all being here and showing us
support but most importantly for being there
for my wife. My accident really scared her
and she's still not okay. It really shook her
and she's not her normal self. I would like
all of you to give her space and not stress
her until she feels better again. Anything
you need I'm sure sims and Lesego will
help you."
" She's taking it harder than she should. I
mean you didn't die so she can have all
your money so what's her problem?." my
uncle says.
" I see you want me to punch you again on
your face. I told you to stop talking about
my daughter like that?." my father in says to
my uncle.
" Malume what did you say about my wife
that made my father in law punch you?."
" he accused luh of wanting you to die so
she can have all your money." Bonga says.
" Malume why would you say that about my
wife when you don 't even know her?."
" Well she..."
" with all due respect malume but please.
Never ever in your life disrespect my wife
like that or accuse her of wanting my
money or anything else. If you really knew
luh you would know that if it was possible
she would have traded places with me. She
told me to let things go but I didn't listen to
her and I got into that accident. Had I
listened to her we all wouldn't be here. You
can say anything malume to anyone but
please dont disrespect the women of this
family including my mother sebenzile and
our helpers who also part of this family. I
would hate for you to be not one of us if you
keep saying disrespectful things about my
wife. Siyezwana angithi?." He nods.
" She shouldn't have looked guilty like she
knew something?." he says. This man
doesn’t listen.
" You will apologize to my wife and ask for
forgiveness."
" I will not..."
" You will uncle. If you don't want to then
get up and get out of this house and our
lives. Forever!." we both stare at each other
until he looks away. Good boy.
The door open and zipho walks in with a girl
who's hiding behind him. He's carrying a big
suitcase. Zipho looks at me.
" Can everyone else leave excluding my
mothers dad my father in-law uncle victor
sims mom and luh's aunt. Zipho and her will
stay behind. " I don't want victor and sims
mom to feel left because they were her
parents too.
" Is everything okay brother?." bonga asks
looking at zipho and I.
" When the time is right everyone will
know." he nods. I want to tell him but I want
to respect luh's wishes.
" sbu please stay." he nods.
They get up and leave us. You can see that
my uncle was not okay with being left out
but he saw the looks on my face and
backed down. I don't trust the man for shit.
If he wasn't my uncle then I'm sure we'll be
talking a different story.
My little brother sits down and his girl takes
a seat next to him. I know what mom is
thinking. This is not the same girl he
showed up with at my house in Ladysmith.
She looks at me and I shake my head a
little. She nods.
Scelo comes in and sits down. I knew this
fool wasn't going to just leave.
" I know this involves my sister so I'm not
going anywhere." I nod.
" Can I say something?." zipho asks looking
at me.
" let me get luh first then we will explain why
everyone is here."
I walk to the room she's sleeping in and I
hear voices inside. I smile and open the
door. They are playing with each other and
my wife is watching them with so much love
and adoration on her face. This is my
family. The family I almost lost because I
wanted revenge but that revenge almost
got me killed amongst other things. They
see and keep quiet. Fuck I forgot I look like
shit. I hope they still recognize me. I walk in
slowly and they move closer to their mom. I
want to chuckle so instead I bite my lip
suppressing my smile.
" who's this?." luh asks them. " Is it
daddy?." they look at her frowning.
" Can I sit?." their heads turn when they
hear my voice. I walk in and sit on the edge
of the table. I can't believe I'm scared that
my kids are afraid of me because of the
way my face is.
" Go to daddy and give him a hug. He
misses you." Luh says.
They look at me look at her look at me
again then look at their mom again before
looking at each other making a decision.
They stare at each other for a while like
they are having a silent conversation infront
of us. They come into a decision and crawl
on the bed to me.
" Hey boys." I smile and point my index
finger up. They look at each other and
smile. They point their little index fingers up
and place them next to mine. It's something
that the three of us do. I used to do it when
they still babies but it ended being
something that is like a ritual between the
three of us.
I pull them to me and give them a big hug
They hug me back. I kiss their chubby
cheeks and they laugh. I live for these
moment. I would never trade them for
anything in this world. Sboniso brushes my
chin where I had my beard and it feels a
little rough on his hand.
" come here." she gets and also crawls to
the bed and wraps her arms around us. I
hold her tight and kiss her hair.
" I love you. All of you are my world and I
almost lost you. I promise all of you that I
will never ever do anything again that will
make me lose you. I love you boys and I
love your mom."
" Love you too daddy." they sing.
" Mommy?." she looks at sboniso?.
" you love daddy?." she smiles.
" I love you both and I love daddy too." she
palms their cheeks.
My wife is really broken and sad. Her smile
doesn't light her face and reach her eyes. I
hate seeing like this and I wish I can take
away the pain she's feeling right now. I am
sad like her because we both lost a child
we didn't know we were expecting. Had I
have known I would have done things
differently. I do blame myself for us losing
our child but what I can do now is to be
there for her and help her heal.
" Love?." she looks at me. I kiss her plump
pink lips. The kids laugh. " I called a
meeting with the elders to tell them about
you
Sponsored
us losing the baby. I had asked zipho to
bring his girlfriend the one that lost the baby
and they are back. I hope you are okay with
that."
" It's okay baby. Is your uncle there too?."
" he's not. I know what happened and I had
a talk with him."
" mbuso I don't want problems with your
maternal family?."
" Don't worry love you won't but if anyone
gives you trouble or stress then I will deal
with them. I don't care who it is. No one
hurts you and gets away with it." she sighs.
" I want you to stop dealing with people
permanently."
" I won't do anything that will hurt you and
put us in this situation again. I promise
you."
" Where are our sheets?."
" uMah put them in the closet. She told me
she knows what happened and she's also
blaming herself."
" who else is blaming themselves?."
" I do love I know...."
" mbuso stop. This isn't your fault her fault
or anyone elses. Don't blame yourself my
husband please. It hurts very much that we
lost our child for you to be here and I'm
thankful that it was our unborn baby than
the one’s we have right now. We will have
other children although they won't replace
the one we lost. We will always remember
him or her." I wipe her tears.
I want to tell her that it was our beautiful
baby girl who looked exactly like her but I
know if I tell her that it will crush her.
" I was thinking that It will be better if we go
to Ladysmith and while we sort this whole
thing of going to the river and fixing what
was done in the past."
" I would like that."
" I can tell them alone if you don't want to
be there."
" I want to be there."
" ok love let's go."
I pick up our kids and walk to the dining
room. When we get there everyone is there
excluding the other kids. We stop walking
and look at each other. The kids look at me
then look at Busani and back at me again.
everyone laughs. Busani comes forward
and stops next to us.
He takes sbobelo from me and my son
goes willingly. He tries to take sboniso fro
me he goes too but he's still looking at me.
My sons looks at each other then cry for
me. Everyone laughs and I take them back
and they stop crying.
" This is daddy brother." Luh says smiling at
them. " He looks like daddy just like look
like each other. Your twins and daddy is a
twin too." my kids are confused.
She walks to where my moms are. I follow
her.
" This is gogo." she says to uMah." and this
is grandma." she says to my birth mother. "
they are twins too like you and daddy."
Both grandmother's take them and kiss
them but my kids want none of that cause
they start crying again. we take them and
go back to stand where we were.
" ok what's going on. Why is everyone
here?."
" obviously something is going on with the
two of you. We are family brother and you
can't exclude us from whatever that is going
on between the two of you. Whatever that is
we will face together and not apart." Bonga
says.
Sims and lesego take the kids from us. I
pull luh under my arm and she rests her
head on my chest.
" Are you fighting and getting a divorce?."
my uncle has a death wish.
" fanele!." both his sisters yell his name.
" Dad I think you should leave now because
you really are skating on thin ice." mbuyi
says to his dad
" what? I'm just asking." I close my eyes
and take a deep breath. My wife entwines
our hands together.
I bend my head down and put it on her neck
and inhale her. I let her scent fill all my
senses and I calm down.
" you want to sit down?." she shakes her
head no.
I lift up and look at everyone.
" Can I say something?." my twin brother
says. I nod.
" I know we have just met each other again
after being separated but please don't
exclude us from your family. I know all of
you have this tight bond and I love it. I've
seen how everyone is with each other the
love and how they talk about you and luh. I
want that. We all want that because we
don't have this closeness that you have
brother with each other. You are my twin
brother these are my brothers too. Sicelo
frank and sbu all of them are my brothers
too. These other brothers form your other
side of the family also want to be more than
just blood brothers but in everyway
possible."
He walks and stands in front of us. I am
looking at myself. This fool looks like me
physically in everyway. I hope he has
tattoos. I don't want my kids to confuse us.
" I know you don't trust us and maybe you
are not sure of our intensions or something
look brother I don't know but what I know is.
Your kids are my kids too. I would trade my
life for yours and either of my brothers.
There's nothing I wont do for you and your
family. Don't shut us out please. If I have to
prove myself then I will. You can trust me."
It kind of hurts me to hear that my brothers
think that I'm excluding them from certain
things and that my twin brother wants to
prove himself to me. That hurts me cause
he shouldn't even say anything like that. If
he is anything like me then I know I can
trust him with my life and family's life.
" Guys I'm sorry to everyone for making you
feel excluded. You are right bonga. We are
family and we don't hide things from each
other no matter how bad or ugly they are. I
was only doing this because I wanted luh to
be comfortable and no we are not getting a
divorce or fighting. Hell I love this girl she's
my everything and nothing or no one will
take her away from me." I kiss her
forehead.
" We know something is going on. Luh
hasn't been herself and we are worried
about her." Sims says.
" I almost died. I was close to leaving her
with two boys who are almost four years.
How wish she be herself sims when
everything is weighing heavy on her
shoulders?. Look guys this was nt about
any of you at all. I asked zipho to bring his
girl here for a reason."
The girl has been hiding her head on that
huge jacket she's wearing.
" Luh please sit down." uMah says. I pull a
chair for her and she does. Uncle victor
takes her hand in his and she sniffs. My
mother begins to cry as well. Dad goes to
her and gives her his handkerchief. He still
loves her.
" Luh kababa what's wrong?."
I take a deep breath.
" I was respecting my wife's wishes when I
asked the elders to stay behind. It wasn't
our of disrespect for any of you. When I
woke from the hospital I knew something
was wrong so I discharged myself and
came here and...." Fuck this harder that I
thought it would be when I say it infront of
everyone. I thread my hand to hers.
" when I came to our bedroom well.... my
wife...unfortunately had a miscarriage. We
lost our child and..." shocked gasps
breakout. Sims lesego her aunt and my
mom wami rush to luh crying. They
embrace her and my brothers embrace me
too. I hate this feeling. I hate seeing my wife
cry. I absolutely hate it.
" we wanted to mourn our child but we also
had to tell our parents for a ceremony to be
done. Zipho and his girlfriend also lost a
child because of themba. He put an
abortion drug in her drink and she lost the
baby. All of us need to be cleansed before
we can go ahead with everything." They
nod.
Luh hugs zipho's girlfriend and cry together
with the women. My brothers are looking
defeated. They don't know what to say or
do and I understand.
The door open and it's Percy with...wait is
that sbani and her grandmother?. I look at
sbu and he looks at me then goes to them.
Dad goes too.
" Sanibonani bantabami." sbani's
grandmother says. My birth mother stand
up and waljks to her looking shocked.
" Gogo usaphila?." her eyes fill with tears.
" I am baby. I never thought they will find
you." she says and looks at me.
She walks slow steps until she stops where
luh is now standing.
" Oh life hasn't been fair to you. It has been
very hard mzukulu but don't worry. Ugogo
ukhona manje." luh bursts into tears and
cries like the time Thami died. I hate
this!. Gogo pulls luh to her and gives
comforts her whispering to her.
God please just give my wife a chance to
be finally have the happiness she
deserves. Why does she always have to
pay for other people’s mistakes?. Why do
bad things happen to good people and not
the ones who really deserve what they
did?.
How did got know where we are?. Oh sbu
must have told them where we are and
what happened. I wonder what she is going
to say now. Oh wait. Is this the help my
great grandmother was talking about?.
CHAPTER 79

MBUSO.
After gogo Xulu has calmed down my wife she
instructs Sims to make luh water mixed with
sugar. I'm really worried about my wife's mental
health and I just hope gogo will be able to help
us especially her so she can heal. I sooth her
back. She has her head laid down on the table.
Gogo looks at me and shakes her head.
" You faced death in the face and talked to it. It
didn't want you to come back to this world again
but being as stubborn as you are you didn't
listen." she leaves a very pregnant pause and I
feel my heart beating fast." You did right by
defying it and fought to come back. Had you not
came back what you saw would have happened
but with someone else." Fuck no!
Sims comes back and gives luh the water and
she drinks.
" It's nice to see you all the zikalala
grandchildren great grandchildren and great
children. All of you must know that the noise
bickering and fighting is not good for any of
you. Holding grudges mot forgiving each other
and wishing others bad things will ruin this
family. Fanele uKhanyo is nothing like your ex-
wife. Stop saying hurtful things ton this girl
because when you do that you are only bringing
yourself bad luck. The name you gave uLungile
wasn't a mistake Sebenzile. You gave it to her
because of what she represented light. Peace.
Happiness and love. Forgive yourself for what
happened. You were just a child and you didn't
know better. You can't keep punishing and
blaming yourself." She takes a deep breath and
looks at all of us.
The way she speaks the way she carries herself
is full of wisdom and it humbles you.
" What she did and keeping it a secret for all
these years was very wrong and some might say
unforgivable but not anyone in this room has a
right to condemn sebenzile for what she did.
When all of you in this room have lied cheated
stole and killed. No one is perfect in this world
but we learn as we grow to make smart choices
and hope that our children don't make the same
mistakes we did. That's all a parent ever wants.
Holding a grudge deprives you of being happy
and enjoying your life. It will fill you with hate
and resentment and you will be miserable. I am
not saying forget about what she did but if you
can do it. Look at the men she raised. How she
raised them with their father. We don't if all
your kids Gumede would have turned out they
way they have had you and Owami been
together. Maybe they would maybe they
wouldn't have."
" Busani forgive your other mother mzukulu I
know it is very hard especially when see her but
the both of you need to sit down and talk. You
are doing this for yourself and not her." my twin
brother nods. " Thumbu what happened to your
brother is not your fault and what you and your
girlfriend here faced is not your fault too. These
things happen mfana wami and to face
something like this while you are still young is
very sad but it's life and part of growing up. If
your intensions are true with them then you
need to tell the truth." What? Bonga and I look
at each other. Is she talking about his other
girlfriend?.
" Mzukulu what is your name?." gogo' asks
zipho's girlfriend.
" Tshegofatso Maboa gogo."
" where are your parents?."
" They are both at home in Warden." she nods.
" You need to call them and let them know that
they should expect visitors in the next coming
days and explain to them what happened to you.
Is that okay Gumede?."
" Yebo gogo." she nods.
" after you have been cleansed by your in-laws
you will go home before them so they will
cleanse you. Then your in-laws will come after.
Uyezwa angithi?."
" yebo gogo."
" Right now go to sbani she has something for
you. Please show her a room she will
use." lesego and sims get up and they follow
them.
" Tomorrow the house will be cleansed then we
all go to Ladysmith a ceremony will be done for
both the children to be named and their mothers
and father's cleansed and then try to fix the
wrongs that were done so they won't fall on all
your children. uKhanyo told you what needs to
be done and everything your great grandmother
told her. After everything has been done you
will do umsebenzi wokubonga. All of you need
to be there. This family is full of boys but
almost all of you don't have children other than
uMbuso Bonga and khanyo's brother. That is
not right. There are supposed to be more
children running around this house. You all
need to get your priorities right and stop
playing. You are not getting younger but older.
Niyangizwa angith?."
" yebo gogo."
" Ubani uThandiwe noNokuthula?."
" Uthandiwe umakoti wami gogo. uNokuthula
umakoti kaScelo ubhuti waKhanyo." bonga says
and gogo looks at scelo and his dad for a long
time then khanyo aunt.
" We need to talk. All of you." she keeps quiet
again. " There is someone missing here." we all
look at each other.
" Okay I am tired now. I woke up early in the
morning. I am tired and hungry. Bafana bami go
in the kitchen and make us something to eat."
Sbani comes back with lesego and Sims. She
goes to luh whispers something. She takes luh's
hand and they walk out. I'm about to follow
them but gogo stops me.
" She will be fine mbuso. You boys go and
cook." what the hell. I don't even know how to
cook but us " boys." go in the kitchen.
I wanted to tell her that we have abo Aunty who
help us but dismissed that thought immediately.
" I think I'm scared of sbani's gogo." Sicelo says
and we laugh.
" Uh guys I have to go. I have to be
somewhere." Mthunzi says. We nod. " Brother
we will talk on the phone and I am sorry for
your loss." Mbuyiselo and Mabutho also have
something to do immediately and we laugh at
them. They are running away from gogo Xulu.
We bro hug and they all leave after promising to
come to Ladysmith.
" I am so sorry man for the loss of your child.
Bro I can't imagine what the both of you are
going through." Sicelo says.
" It's not about me but luh. For the second time
in my life scelo I'm very worried about luh.
When she was kidnapped I was terrified for her
and our kids but this time it's actually worse
because it's more mental than anything else." I
sit down.
" You haven't physically healed yourself and
this happened?. Honestly luh doesn't deserve
this at all. This life thing man is fucked up."
Bonga says.
" Luh has all of us. You are not going to go
through this alone." bonga says.
" Congratulations brother for growing the
family man. I am proud of you and I want you
guys to be happy for expecting your child and
not feel like you should hide it from us. " bonga
nods.
" Sims is pregnant? Congrats man." we pat him
more like punch him and we are not cooking.
" Who's baby is she carrying though?." I take
the apple on the table and bit it. They stop
laughing and look at me. We look at each other
then burst out laughing.
" bro don't do that." sbu says.
" You and your wife have an open marriage?."
busani asks
" bro it was a one time thing. Never ever doing
it again." bonga shakes his head furiously and
busani laughs shaking his head.
" what?...You...." zipho stutters we laugh at him.
" Your brother and sister in-law had a
threesome." his eyes pop out
" Why did you have to tell him bro?." bonga
says shaking his head.
" you mean this one?. Zipho?. The one who is
polygamous?."
" what
" but is it possible?." scelo asks.
" Hell no!." both bonga and sbu say at the same
time.
" why are you so sure?." I ask them.
" I used protection and I never came in her." sbu
says.
" You never got anywhere near her with dick
before using protection?." I ask him.
" hell no." he says.
" I made sure of that." bonga says.
" and besides I can never impregnate anyone
else other than what my ancestors chose for
me." we know that. I was just playing with
them.
" Stop discussing my woman's private parts you
perverts." we laugh again. They are making me
feel better. I hope luh's sisters are also making
her feel better too.
" and wena?. Are you going to tell your
girlfriends that you are polygamous?." scelo
asks zipho.
" I don't know where to start." he says. " I am
afraid that I might lose both of them."
" You remember that one day when umkhulu
said that one of us will be in a polygamous
marriage and we thought he was talking about
umbuso." we laugh. I look at my twin brother.
" if freaked me out man but I have always
known that I was made to love one woman and
that is my beautiful wife. We will take you to
their graves and meet the rest of the family.
They know about you but to know that you are
actually alive well and smile like me is going to
make them really happy." he smiles. I brush his
head and we laugh.
" I can't wait for that."
" I love you bro. We love you and we have your
back. All of us here including you zipho. This
thing you do of excluding yourself from this
family stops now. Uyangizwa?."
" That means a lot to me and I have your backs.
no matter what."
" Yebo bhuti." zipho says. " Who's the oldest
though?."
" Me of course." busani laughs.
" he's right. Mom said that he's the oldest." We
laugh.
" tomorrow morning lesego and I are flying to
Durban. The kids have to go to school on
Monday." I almost forgot.
" us too but we will be back on Friday we will
drive down."
" Thank you guys really."
" This morning I sent my email at work and
resigned. I want to be here with my family and
get to know my parents." busani says and I am
surprised.
" You mean that?."
" I do. I heard what gogo said and umama and I
we will sit down and talk. I have to forgive her.
She raised my brothers so well and a part of me
wishes that maybe I was the one she chose to
take so I can experience what it's like to grow
up in a home with both parents. She looks at
you like the child she gave birth too and you can
feel the love she has for you. For all of you and
I too want to feel that love from her. Am I
angry? yes but I can't hold on to this anger
anymore. It’s time for a new start and I am
choosing to start it with my family. Here." I
grab his shoulder.
" we understand brother and you don't have to
force yourself if you feel like you can't. We all
understand and she will too." he nods in
agreement.
" What about the life you had there your friends
someone special?." my brother smiles. He does
have someone special.
" yeah I still have to talk to them. They only
know that I found my other family." hmmm.
" let's talk about sbani. Your eyes have been
glued to her from the moment she walked in
with her grandmother. What is going on
between you guys?." scelo asks.
" I talk to her almost everyday and well things
are complicated between us."
I know he's going to hate what I'm going to say
but he has to hear it. Sbu can't keep pretending
like that part of his life doesn't exist. He's
probably going to change the subject as always
and get irritated with me.
" Bro you..."
" shut up mbuso. Don't you even say a world
about me running out of time. I know okay?." he
says. " That shit stresses me out. Man I can't
sleep sbani wants nothing to do with that part of
my life and...fuck!. sometimes I think of just
walking away from it."
" You can't walk away from your birth right.
Your dad has been wanting to step down for
years sbu and you have been asking for time to
get things together when you were actually
running away. You don't want what happened to
me happen to you sbu. You are not a coward but
you are behaving like one." I tell him.
" sbani's grandmother said the same thing that
day we met her. She saud my ancestors have
been patient but they will get fed up and I will
lose those closest to me."
" what are you scared of exactly?."
" The huge responsibly of leading people and
coming from the royal family. My dad is good
at leading people. He was born for it and he is a
great king and I am not sure if I can be like
him."
" wait? You are a prince?. You come from a
royal family?." busani asks shocked.
" He is. Only his closest friends know. other
people don't know." I tell him
" Including out wives." bonga says. Scelo
agrees.
" speak for yourselves. My wife knows."
" is there anything my sister doesn't know?."
Scelo asks.
" nope. She knows everything." we laugh.
" But on the real side brother. It's time you took
over the throne and get married."
" I know. I want to marry sbani but when I told
her I'm from the royal family she said we can't
be together."
" because your royal?." zipho asks
" yes but I feel like there's more."
" She's here now and maybe you guys will have
a chance to talk." he nods.
" what about themba?." I sigh.
" frank is with him. I hate doing this but when
luh is asleep I want to go and face him. I
promised luh that I am done killing people and I
want to keep mu word to her but themba has to
pay for making my brother lose his child."
" don't!." they all say at the same time.
" what?."
" we will deal with themba. Wena just focus on
luh and leave the rest to us." scelo says.
" are you guys sure?."
" mbuso you woke up a totally different man.
The old mbuso would have dealt with themba
and the girl first then our uncle."
" I am not a man who gets scared by anything
unless it involves my wife and her safety but
guys seeing my life flash before my eyes in that
accident terrified me to my core and I don't ever
want to put luh or go through something like
that ever again. So yes I am a changed man in
some ways. I don't want to stress luh ever
again."
" You love my sister mbuso and you always put
her first. Her and your kids. That's all a brother
could ask for. I know no matter what happens
she has you. I sleep better at night knowing that
my sister is with you."
" thank you bro."
Sis nonto comes in and she tears up when she
sees me. I get up and give her a hug. This
woman loves my woman like her own child and
my kids like her grandkids. She's family.
" I'm sorry. I'm just happy to see you again
Mnguni."
" I am back sis nonto. for good." she smiles and
wipes her tears.
" You were all told to cook but I find you
chatting. Gogo won't be happy with you but
don't worry. I came to help you."
" Konje what would we be without you taking
care of us. Siyabonga sis nonto ngempela. for
everything." she smiles and looks down
" You boys will make me cry. Now get up and
help me cook. Take out the pots and the meat in
the fridge." we get up and help her.
" You sis nonto has been with our family for
decades. When I got reunited with my family
she was already there." sis nonto smiles.
" she's like a mom to us." I say and she laughs.
" I'm just six years older than you. I couldn't
be."
" it's not about the age sis nonto but the way you
have been to us. How you treat us you know."
" Your family has always been good to me. I
love them and being with luh too and helping
her with her family is a pleasure to me." she is a
good woman. She will make someone really
happy although I think I know who her heart
belongs to
" sometimes I wonder what my dad is thinking
you know?." scelo says.
" what do you mean?." I ask him.
" I mean how could he not see what..."
" scelo. Don't speak ill of your father please.
Your dad's decisions are his only and all you
have to do is support him."
" But...." scelo tries to explain.
" chop those veges scelo." ok case closed.
Bonga bursts out laughing and we follow too.
Sis nonto joins us and we all laugh.
I know I'm rarely wrong but these two. I am
sure I'm right about them. Sis nonto chases out
of the kitchen because we make a mess more
than helping her. Our other housekeeper comes
and helps her. We take the twins go to the next
house and see the children and they are happy to
see me even though they were scared to see me
like that.
We play with them until we are called to come
and eat. Gogo says grace and she prays for
almost ten minutes. When she's done kamo says
digs in. I watch luh carefully and she's taking
small bites of her food. Her eyes find mine I
look at her plate then her and she knows what I
mean. She eats more looking at me and I smile.
her cheeks get red a little and I give her my full
smile even though my face still hurts.
After dinner we go straight to bed and my
mother takes the twin who willingly go to sleep
with her. We drink our medication then get in
bed. I want to ask her what happened with sbani
but she falls asleep immediately. I wrap my
arms around her and let sleep takeover.
CHAPTER 80
SICELO.
I thought the worst was over for my sister after
her husband walked through that door alive and
not so well but the most important thing was he
was alive. Mbuso and luh have a connection like
no other. Something that is unique and special
to them only and it surprises me most of them
time how in tune they are with each other.
I am so hurt for them for losing the baby and I
understand why mbuso is worried about her
mental health. We know luh is strong but
sometimes even the strongest person can break
down and this might be it for her. Mbuso is
right. Luh has to start going to her therapist
everyday so she can heal. They both need too.
Mbuso woke up different man. Everything
about him is much more intense than he was
before but in a good too.
I wish I can take away the pain they are feeling
right now and the responsibility that is on her
shoulders of carrying the whole Gumede family.
For things to work out well for the rest of the
family everything rests on her. I wish sims
could help her and carry some of the loud off
her shoulders but she can't. She's pregnant and
she's in a fragile state. I hope my wife will be
able to help her where luh needs help.
Gogo Xulu freaked me out when she kept
looking at me and dad. I don't know what she
meant when she said there's someone who's not
here. I wonder whom she was talking about
cause we were all there unless maybe she meant
Frank?. I don't know. What did she mean she
said we have to talk?. That old woman is scary
man. I wonder when did lesego wake up. I get
up and walk to the bathroom.
I walk to the kitchen and the delicious aroma's
filling the house are making my stomach
grumbles. Today we are flying out to Durban. I
want to go to Ladysmith with them but we can't.
The kids have to go to school and I have a
business to run. Damn I almost walk back to the
bedroom when I see gogo Xulu drinking her
coffee.
" Sawubona Fuze. Come and join me for tea."
how did she see me when her head is bowed
down?.
" sawubona gogo. Unjani? ( good morning gogo
how are you?.)" she smiles.
" I am okay fuze. Call your dad aunt and wife
here. We have to talk before the rest of the
house wakes up. Your wife and mother are in
the kitchen." my dad walks in the living at that
right moment.
" sawubona ma ( morning ma ). Morning son. "
he sits down. I get up to call my wife but she
walks in followed by sis nonto luh's other maid
and they put the many serving dishes on the
table with different kinds of breakfast food.
" Good morning." They greet us and we greet
them back.
" You too sit down. Fuze go call your aunt."
" did she sleep in this house?."
" No she's not here or in the other house. She
went to see uncle frank." lesego explains.
" Ma you want me to stay too?."
" Yebo sisi. Sit down." why is there suddenly
tension?.
" Baba where is your girlfriend? I haven’t seen
her since we got here in the house?." I ask him.
" She's at her daughter house in Tembisa but
she's coming so we can drive together to
Ladysmith." I nod.
" Since your sister is not here then we shall start
without her." She looks at dad.
" Your whole family has been through so much.
I have encountered many families who have
things happen to them but not like this one
however after going through all of that you all
made it. You all had a second chance in life and
that's what is important." she looks at lesego.
" Your name suits you beautifully nokuthula
because you represent everything about that
name. You have brought peace and love to this
man you are married to and his life changed.
Your mother in law comes to you in your
dreams right?."
" she does gogo."
" what does she say?."
" uhm she says many things but the one thing
she always tells me is to keep her family safe
and not let other people destroy it. I would ask
her what she means but she would just say not
everyone who comes in our lives has pure
intentions." what? she never told me that.
" Your mother Fuze is happy with the woman
whom you have chosen to be your wife. She's
the one who led ou to her. You love your
children's relationship because it reminds you of
luh when she was just a baby and the time you
all lost. Your children have been accepted by
your ancestors. You did everything right by
wanting them to have the same surname you all
have."
" Thank you gogo." I say. My children and wife
are everything to me.
" Someone is going to come in your home and
your children will see what she's going to do.
They will come to you so please listen to them.
Your family is not happy about where you are in
life nokuthula and whatever that may happen
always be careful around them." I'll kill all of
them should they try to hurt my wife and
children I swear I'll make my wife an orphan.
" Don't worry baby. They won't hurt you while
I'm here."
" I know what you are thinking of doing Fuze.
Don't do it. That will hurt your sister more than
you know and it will ruin relationships." Fuck !
is there anything this woman doesn't see or
know?. Dad looks at me and I look away.
I know they have all forgiven her but I feel like
had she been dealt with my sister wouldn't have
lost her baby. I blame their mother for my
sister's tears. Am I willing to risk our
relationships by killing her? I was. I would have
dealt with the consequences later but now that I
am busted. I don't think I can get away with it
cause this old woman would know. I don't want
to hurt my sister in anyway and if me killing her
mother in-law is going hurt her then I won't do
it.
" You won't like the consequences scelo. I'm
warning you." ok she is serious.
" I won't do it gogo." she raises her right
eyebrow at me. " I promise."
" You lie to me scelo and you'll know me!. Try
me!." what? my dad is smirking. Oh he is
enjoying this.
" What are you smiling about." she asks dad and
wipes the smile off his face. I almost want to
stick my tongue out at him. " Kids leave us. The
grown ups have to talk." We leave gogo with
dad and sis nonto.
My wife wants to go to the kitchen but I pull her
hand and lead her to the bedrooms. Luh and
mbuso and they look like they have just woken
up. We stop walking.
I pull her to my chest and kiss her forehead. I
wonder what happened when they were all in
the other bedroom with sbu's sbani. Damn even
their names rhyme.
" How are you feeling?." what am Ii asking?. " I
mean...."
" It's okay. I've been better but don't worry I'll
be fine." she says. She doesn't sound like
herself. I sigh looking at mbuso and he looks
exhausted too. Man is not fully healed himself.
" Did you guys at least get some sleep?."
" Wed did." mbuso says.
" He was watching me sleeping. I don't know
when he fell asleep."
" I'll sleep when we get home." he says.
Meaning he will sleep when luh finally gets
better.
" We are here for you guys whatever you need."
I tell them. She hugs me tighter.
" We can take the kids with us to durban if it's
okay with you?." lesego says.
" No we have nannies and I want my family
around me. We'll be okay." luh says. She and
lesego hug. " Thank you for being for me. I
appreciate it more than you know." she says.
" We are sisters luh and my family."
" Lets go and eat before you both make me cry."
mbuso says and we laugh.
" Look at you. You are such a softie now." he
chuckles
" bro don't start." we laugh and go to our
bedroom.
I close the door and immediately grab her face
and kiss her hard. She moans.
" hmmmm scelo.....your...dad..everyone
is...uhhhh...."
" Fuck I don't care if anyone hears us. I am
horny and I want my wife."
" but.....aahhhhhh."
I get on my knees lift her dress up and rp off her
underwear and she gasps. I lift her legs and put
then om my shoulders. Her pussy is right on my
face and I don't waste time. I sniff her and she
smeels good. Her scent intoxicates me. It goes
straight to my brain drugging me. I open my
mouth and cover her whole mound. She moans
and her head hits the door. We can't have that
but I like her like this.
I swipe my tongue on her vagina wall then rub
her clit and she moans loud. I tongue fuck her
tasting her juice and she fucken tastes good. Her
sweet soft sounds are making my dick really
hard and it wants to be let out. I muff the fuck
out of her and her hips begin to move agaisn't
my face and she's fucking it. Her juices are all
over my face and I am loving it. I suck on her
hard nub. She calls my name pushes my face
harder on her pussy. I use my tongue to flick her
clit up down side ways and nib on it more and
she screams as her legs shakes.
" I'm cumming oh God...I'm cumming."
She's being loud and we don't want to disrespect
anyone like this especially when there are adults
in the house. I kiss her pussy more before I
gently pull my face away from her warmth and
get her on legs that are shaking. I get up take her
hand and we walk to the middle of the room.
" Get on your knees baby." Her behind that is
facing away from me looks so beautiful. I kiss
those beautiful big globes.
I unzip my pants take them down to my knees
with my underwear and my dick springs free.
Pre-cum comes out and some lands on her ass.
Fuck!. I rub it on her.
" This is going to be rough and quick mama.
Don't scream out loud if you do. I'm going to
stop. Uyezwa?." she nods.
I separate that ass and I see her pick tight ring
starring at me. Fuck!. I wonder if she'll ever let
me hit it in there. I rub her tight ring with my
thumb and she jumps. I point my dick to her
entrance grab her waist then push inside that
warm wet tight pussy. We both moan. My balls
get hard instantly. I pull almost out leavinng my
dick head inside then thrust in hard and she
curses. I fist her dress on her back holding it
tight.
One hand fisting her dress the other one on her
waist grabbing it tight I fuck the shit out of her.
I thrust in hard and rough knocking the air out
of her lungs with every thrust. Her pussy
muscles contract around my dick massaging my
dick fuck!. I am going to cum and I'm not
ready. I pull out and my dick screams
threatening to kill me.
" lay on your back mama. I want to see you."
Her lips are red from biting them and her face is
flushed. She looks beautiful. She opens her legs
and her pussy is glistening. I bring my head
down and wipe all that juice then quickly bring
my body up entering her. Her hands fall on my
ass grabbing it with her nails and pushing it
deeper in her. She opens her mouth to scream
but I close her mouth with mine swallowing her
screams. I wrap my arms around her holding her
tight and fuck my wife. I swallow every moan
kiss her trying to say name and stealing her
breath. I don't let go of that mouth or fucking
that pussy rough raw without any mercy. She
takes everything I'm dishing out clinging to me
for dear life.
God knows I love this woman and I want to
have many children with her. The though of her
pregnant my child feels my head. My dick
wants to release go look for that egg and
fertilise it so she can be with child. I take one of
her legs and put it on my shoulder and she
screams. Fuck yes!. I thrust in her watching the
different emotions on her face playing.
" mama?." she opens her mouth but nothing
comes out. " Open your eyes mama and look at
me." I hit her g-spot her eyes fly open.
" mama? "
" papa...ahhhh yesssss......" she says.
" I love you thula." Her eyes get misty. I kiss
her whole face.
" Le nna papa kea ho rata. ( I love you too
papa.) " I love it when she calls me that.
" Masikhulise umuzi kababa. ( let's make
babies.) "
I rub her clit with my thumb and she throws her
head back. I take her other leg and also put it
over my shoulder and continue to thrust in her.
" I'm.....ah...I'm cummm....yessss!." her pussy
milks my dick forcing me to follow her.
" Cum love. Milk your dick!." I whisper in her
ear.
I grab her face and kiss her before she screams
the whole house down. Her body shakes she
moans my name her nails digging deep in me
and fuck!. I lose it and cum deep in her groaning
until all of my seed has spilled in her.
Her shoulders shake and she begins to cry. I pull
out pick her up and lay her on the bed. I go to
the bathroom and come back with a towel wipe
her and fix her dress then wipe myself and pull
my pants up. I get on the bed and lay her on my
chest and comfort her as she cries.
" Did I hurt you?." she shakes her head." what's
wrong mama?." She cries some more.
" I am scared about what gogo said and I'm sad
about what luh is going through on the other
side I'm happy that sims is pregnant."
" But what?." I lift her face so she can look at
me.
" everyone is falling pregnant but us." what?. I
freeze. My whole body gets cold. She looks
away.
" are you trying to say something mama?." she
gets up and wipes her tears.
" I am not on birth control and we don't use
condoms. I..."
" you what?." I get off the bed. I want her to say
it.
" what if you can't have kids." I shake my head
chuckling.
" that's funny cause I thought I already have
kids."
" I mean kids that you..."
" that I what? fathered with my own sperm that's
what you mean?." she looks down." Look at me
nokuthula!."
" You think that I am infertile?." she looks at
me. " tell me why?."
" It's been years since we've been married and I
haven't gotten pregnant?."
" and you came into a conclusion that I am the
one who's infertile because I don't have kids that
I produced with my sperm and you already have
kids so the problem is with me? Right?."
" papa I didn't mean to disrespect you by saying
that. I am only worried that's all."
" why does it bother you if you and I have kids
or not?."
" I know how important it is in our culture and
being the first born you are sometimes expected
to grow your family."
" let me stop you right there. Sit down." she
does. I walk around the bed and pull the coffee
chair and sit down facing her. " When I met you
you were with your kids. I fell in love with all of
you and not just you only. When I gave you my
surname I wanted them to also have it because I
love them. They are your kids and they are my
kids even though I didn't birth them but I love
them like a father who loves their child and
birthed them. We have been together for almost
three years and recently married and wena
during that time you have been worried that I
haven’t gotten you pregnant?. Really?."
" papa...."
" were you thinking that every time we made
love?. When we fucked?. You thought that I
was shooting blanks?."
" No papa not like that."
" like what then?."
" when I heard sims was pregnant and luh losing
her baby it made me think what could be wrong
with us."
" Don't patronize me lesego. You thought what
is wrong with me since I am failing to be a
husband to you and make you pregnant right?."
" No papa you are a great husband and a
wonderful father to our kids."
" but they are not mine according to you. If they
were you wouldn't have insinuated that I can't
have kids. You wouldn’t be comparing yourself
with sims or my sister. We are not in
competition to see who get's pregnant first or
who's last. Things like these happen on their
own time. You don't plan when and how you are
going to fall pregnant. You can only plan to try
and not fall pregnant but that also depends on
what God wants. I thought we were happy and
enjoying our marriage together with our kids but
obviously I was wrong."
" no scelo I didn't mean it like that. I am happy
with you."
" When we land in Durban tonight find a doctor
make an appointment for tomorrow so you will
find out if I am capable of making you pregnant
or not."
" papa please."
" why are you crying lesego?. Am I hurting you
right now with what I'm saying because I'm
sorry if I am?. I would have told you that I can't
have kids if I couldn't when we first got
together. I wasn't prepared for how you
approached this whole thing. It feels like you
were comparing me to my brothers and that is
not a good feeling at all."
I get up kiss her forehead and leave the
bedroom. The kids are playing in the house.
" kids?." they stop and look at me. " Who wants
ice-cream?." they all scream. " lets go then.
Mbuso walks to me.
" bro you okay?." he doesn't need my stress. "
I'm fine. Just need to get some air." he nods but
I know he doesn’t believe me.
CHAPTER 81
SICELO.
I come back from McDonalds with the kids and
they had a good time. I get in the kitchen and sis
nonto is cooking with the other maid. I forget
the girls name. Wait aren't we all leaving
today?. Why is she cooking and why is she
giving that look.
" Sis nonto?."
" scelo." is she angry at me?
" did I do something wrong?."
" I don't appreciate you taking the kids to go fed
them junk food." Oh who told her.
" They has ice-cream only I swear." I'm lying.
They all begged me for big Mac's.
" scelo?."
" Ok I'm sorry sis nonto. I wanted to get some
fresh air."
" Don't worry about your sister and husband.
They have all of us."
" I know but it's not about them. I had a
disagreement with my wife and I walked out on
her."
She sighs and sits down. I look at her and I can
see she's not her loving self. What did gogo say
to her and my dad?.
" Are you okay sis nonto?."
" I am okay. Tell me about what happened
between the two of you."
I don't know what gogo Xulu said to sis nonto
because she is down and I don't like seeing her
that way.
" She's worried that in all the years we've been
together she hasn't fell pregnant. She thinks that
I might be infertile"
" and?." huh?
" to me it felt like she was maybe comparing me
to my brothers and why would she think I'm
infertile?."
" did she say why aren't you like your
brothers??."
" no she didn't."
" so you assumed that she's comparing you to
them and she's also assuming that maybe you
might be infertile?."
" Yeah i guess."
" So this means that there's a lack of
communicating somewhere in your
relationship."
" We always communicate well sis nonto and I
don't know why she's stressing about me not
having a child I made with her."
" This isn't about you scelo. What I'm getting is
uNokuthula is scared that maybe the family will
think that she doesn't want to have more kids
and with you. I think that she's scared that
maybe she also can't have more kids than the
one's you both have. Sicelo getting married to a
family with your kids is not easy. She is going
to feel the pressure that she must produce a true
Ngcobo heir. She scared that maybe as time
goes and there's no child the family will feel like
the kids she came with will have your
inheritance."
" But they already do have their inheritance sis
nonto. When they took our surname dad made
sure that both of them have their own trust fund
so why would our family feel that way?."
" I'm not saying they are but they could in
future. Your wife just wants to have children
with you that's all. I don't know how she
brought the subject but I don't think she was
undermining your man hood or you as her
husband. She could have just said that these are
her fears that's all. Sicelo don't forget that your
wife practically raised herself so in other ways
she doesn't know how to bring such subjects to
you. Unless she feels intimidated by you."
" What?."
" Yes scelo. You might not be aware but she
might. She didn't grew around family like you
despite what happened but still Fuze you found
your family again and you all bonded. Your
wife is still getting used to having everyone care
about her and that might scare or even
intimidate her. She had her kids you and had to
fend for herself and her children. She was
treated like an outcast in her own family by her
parents. Had maybe her mother was around to
teach her about life men marriage amongst other
things she might brought this subject in a
different manner. Don't get mad at her but teach
her where she doesn't know."
She is right about everything. Sometimes I
forget where my wife comes from and how she
grew up. It's not easy to forget that kind of life
you lived when she experienced it with our kids.
I hate it. I hate so bad and every time I think
about how they treated her I want to go lock
them in that house and set them all on fire.
" You know sis nonto I failed to put myself in
her shoes and think where she's coming from.
All I could think about was that every time I am
intimate with her she thinks that I am shooting
blanks." she laughs. I can't believe this woman.
" oh you're laughing at me?."
" I'm sorry celo but on the real though Are you
shooting blanks?."
She laughs out loud and I am surprised that my
situation lets call it that is tickling her funny
bone. I end up joining her and we both laugh.
" You know I'm not. I had tests done and I am
perfectly healthy." I flex my muscles.
" why didn't you tell her that?."
" I told her to set an appointment for tomorrow
so I can get checked out."
" you thought she wouldn't believe you?."
honestly I thought she would just think that I'm
saying it to ease her mind.
" she's already thinking the worst njena?."
" that's not how a marriage works scelo. Your
word is good enough for her. She just wanted
you to reassure her and put her mind at ease.
" I fucked up didn't I?."
" No the both of you messed up. She didn't
deliver it well and you didn't receive it well and
you left her feeling bad."
" how do I fix it?."
" Just give your wife what she wants." I frown."
Bed her and fill her belly. Make her scream your
name like she did this morning." she laughs
when she sees the shocked look on my face.
" what?. You heard us?." oh fuck!.
" The whole house heard you and gogo was
shaking her head the whole entire time."
" Oh my God she heard us?."
She bursts out laughing and I shake my head
laughing. She's just messing with me.
My dad walks in with his girlfriend and the
smile on sis nonto's face is gone.
" go and talk to her. I don't want to see that child
upset celo. Buy her favourite flowers chocolate
and expensive jewellery." we both get up and I
hug her.
" You have always given me best advise. I
appreciate it and I appreciate you." I kiss her
cheek and she smiles. Again why isn't my dad
sweeping this wonderful woman off her feet?.
" Is everything okay with maMotaung?." His
eyes keeping going between me and sis nonto.
The kitchen gets filled with this awkward vibe.
Dad needs to sort this whole situation. I think
what gogo said to the both of them caused this
whole weird energy.
" Nothing major dad. I'll fix it." I look at sis
nonto and she's on the stove. I look at dad and
he's looking at her. " uhm hi. I am sicelo." we
shake hands.
" I am Ursula Memela. Nice to meet you finally
scelo. Your dad has told me so much about
you." .
" Nice to meet you too miss Memela." I remove
my hand from her.
" Oh please call me Ursula. Miss Memela makes
me feel old." I smile
Dad once told me to that he met someone and
obviously it's her. I won't say that though cause
I don't want to hurt sis nonto. I know there's
something between them but they have never
tried to date. Sis nonto has worked for our
family for as long as I can remember and not
once have I ever heard that she has someone
special in her life. Although she has children.
" Uhm I am going to go. We are leaving in a
few hours." dad nods. I leave them in the
kitchen and when I get in the living room there's
a woman in there and she's wearing the shortest
dress I have ever seen.
" Can I help you?." She turns around and smiles
when she sees me. Sims walks in followed by
her husband and my wife. Where are the others.
The woman looks at them when they come in
and her face beams with the hugest smile on her
face. Where's sbu though?
" Can I help you are you looking for someone
here?." she looks at me still smiling. My wife
stands next to me and drape my arm on her
shoulder. She walks towards us and it looks like
she's going to hug me. She better not.
" Hi am Lusiwe but everyone calls me lucy."
she says and goes for a hug but sims stops her.
" yoh brika ausi Lucy can we help you with
something?." sims is annoyed and the way she's
looking at that short skirt or dress she's wearing
you can see she so badly wants to cover her
legs.
" I am Ursula's daughter?." oh she does look like
her if you look closely.
" who's Ursula papa?." I smile.
" It's my dad's female friend." I tell them
" Well they are more than just friends and I
think soon we are all going to be one big happy
family." she's excited. " My mom talks about
you all the time and I feel like I already know
you all." oh hell no. What did dad say?.
" This must be your wife Lesego and you are
sims and this is your husband Bonga and of
course mbuso. Where is luh though?."
A look passes between my wife and sister. No
one corrects her about busani being mbuso.
" I am simphiwe and lungile isn't luh to you. We
don't know you for you to say our names like
that." Okay she's being a little harsh now.
" Nice to meet you ursula. Please sit down.
Someone will attend to you." she sits down.
" when are we leaving?." I ask bonga.
" When luh and the others come back."
" Where did they go?."
" They left with gogo." bonga says.
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" They left with gogo." bonga
says.
" can we talk?." I ask my wife. she nods. I
take her hand and we walk to the back yard
where mbuso's father is having a talk with
his wives.
" I'm sorry about how I reacted earlier. You
are afraid and I was suppose to assure you
that you shouldn't worry about us having
baby because I am fertile. I did tests before
we met and during. We will fall pregnant
when the time is right mama. Musa
ukukhathazeka sthandwa sam. ( stop
worrying my love.) Uyangixolela? ( do you
forgive me?.) "
" I'm sorry too papa. I could have said that
not in an accusing manner. I'm scared papa
that's all."
" scared of what?."
" What will your family say if another year
goes by and..."
" baby stop. The worrying and stressing is
what is going to make it hard for us to fall
pregnant. The family you are talking about
is your family too. Whether we fall pregnant
or not I will love you the same and nothing
will change between us. All our children will
receive the same amount of their
inheritance. From Dad me and Luh. Just
like how kamo and kagiso have their trust.
Stop worrying okay?."
" Okay Fuze lam." I chuckle.
" Ngiyakuthanda uyezwa?. ( I love you..) "
" ngiyakuthanda Fuze lam. ( I love you.) "
she talks IsiZulu so sexy. I give her a kiss
on her cheek then walk back in the house.
We walk in and sit down. Sims looks like
she wants to shoot herself. Lusiwe is talking
about her beautiful life in Sandton but her
eyes are on busani whom she thinks is
mbuso. Busani doesn't look interested
because he's on his phone and bonga is on
his phone too. I bet those two are talking to
each other.
" Have you seen her mom?." sims asks.
" She's in the kitchen. Why? "
" I thought she might want to see her."
" Oh I don't. Your dad came to pick up my
mom and I thought let me come in and say
hi to everyone."
" You can...."
" baby?."
" what?." she says looking at bonga.
" don't be rude to...." he looks at me.
" Don't be rude sis."
Dad and Ursula come walk in the living
room and he looks off. Ursula is holding his
hand for life. Sims looks at me and I shrug
my shoulders. They sit down.
" Uh everyone this is Ursula and her
daughter Lusiwe." he says. Okay what
changed cause the last time he talked
about her he was excited?. They greet
Ursula back and then it gets quiet. The
gumede's also come in and they also don't
look okay. What is going on in this house?.
The door opens and every person comes
in. Luh has some colour on her cheeks and
zipho's girl too looks better. Sbani on the
other hand doesn't look fine. Gogo is the
last to come in. They all sit down.
" You are twins wow. So this is the real
mbuso?." all eyes turn on her.
" Uhm everyone this is Ursula and her
daughter Lusiwe." dad says looking at luh
who has her head on his chest. Dad goes
around the table and introduces everyone.
They greet each other shaking hands too
except mbuso of course. The look gogo has
on Ursula is unsettling. What is she
seeing?.
" where are the kids?." mbuso asks.
" the twins are napping and the rest are
playing outside.
" Where is uncle fanele and uncle victor?."
" They all left this morning." sims says.
" where's your mom?." gogo asks.
" she's laying down."
" Lets go to her. You too bonga come."
They follow her.
Sbani gets up too and goes to the kitchen.
Sbu tries to follow her but the look on her
face stops him. I am almost want to laugh. I
am so enjoying seeing a woman ruffling his
feathers.
" Give her time bro." mbuso says.
" where were you guys?."
" At a park just down the street. Gogo
suggested we take them out and it was nice
but someone else decided to tag along like
a love sick teenager." we laugh.
" when are you leaving?."
" In an hour. We will see you on the
weekend." I tell them. " we better get our
bags ready."
" I already packed everything." my wife
says. " I wish I had listened to you luh. I
need uAunty." I have been telling her to get
someone to help her around the house and
with the kids but she always refuses.
" I don't trust maids and if I were you I
wouldn't trust them too around your
husbands."
" we trust our husbands." luh and lesego
say at the same time. I grin sbu rolls his
eyes and we laugh.
" excuse me." luh gets up mbuso too. " I'm
going to the kitchen I'm fine baby."
" I know. I'm hungry too." Luh gives mbuso
the oh really look. He winks at her and she
smiles. Gogo being here is helping all of us.
" Luh can we talk?." dad asks her.
" can we do it after I have had something to
eat?."
" ok baby." dad says.
" You were at the park and had a picnic I
think but you didn't eat anything?." lusiwe
asks.
" We didn't. It was a different kind of picnic."
tshego says.
" really what happened?."
" we just talked that's all." she looks at luh
and they smile.
Gogo comes back with sims and bonga.
They sit down. Gogo looks at mbuso's dad.
Mbuso sits while luh leaves.
" Qwabe did you talk to your family?."
" I did ma. Mbuso's aunt is preparing
everything."
" and you mapholoba?." dad coughs.
" they too will be ready for us tomorrow."
Gogo looks at Ursula.
" I'm sorry what is your surname again?."
gogo asks her
" I'm Ursula Memela. She is Lusiwe
Memela. my daughter." gogo nods.
" Is that your maiden name?."
" uhm yes gogo." she shifts in her chair.
" Khethiwe Ursula Memela. You've been
married twice angith sisi? ( isn’t that right?).
”
" Ah yes. How do you know my other
name?."
" this silly old woman knows a lot of
things. Have you been married twice?."
She looks at my dad who looks
uncomfortable.
" yes I have." she says. I look at lusiwe and
her eyes bounce between mbuso and
busani who's looking stressed. it must be
female problems.
" you love this man?."
" I do. I love him." Ursula smiles looking at
my dad.
" How did your marriages end?."
" My husbands died." sims coughs out the
water she was drinking. Gogo nods
" I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope you'll get
married again." gogo says.
" I hope so too. You know what they say.
Third time is a charm." Ursula says
laughing.
" how did they die if you don't mind me
asking?."
" baby man!. Miss Memela you don't have
to answer that."
" I want to know too." mbuso says
" one had heart attack and the other died in
is sleep." she sais one not my first husband
and second.
Sbu's phone beeps. He takes it out and
reads whatever that is there.
" time to go everyone. The jet is ready."
We go to the bedrooms collect the bags
and call the kids. We say goodbye to
everyone staying behind get in the cars and
drive to the airport. When I said goodbye to
sis nonto I couldn't but see that she was
crying. I want to hope that maybe they will
both finally acknowledge the feelings her
and my dad have for each other. In my
heart I feel like dad didn't date because he
too likes sis nonto. I have to talk to my dad
and hear how he really feels about sis
nonto and Ursula.
CHAPTER 82
CHAPTER 82.
SEBENZILE.
I regret everything I ever did to my family.
Especially what I did to my sister. I wish I can
turn back the hands of time and undo everything
but I can't. I was prepared to take my secret to
the grave but secrets have a way of coming out
no matter how hard you try to bury them.
Secrets eat at your soul slowly until you get to a
point where you can't leave with them anymore
and you want to share it to someone and I did. I
thought my best friend will also take that secret
to her grave but her daughter heard us and she
has been blackmailing me ever since until I
thought mbuso and sbu had killed her but Like
the devil she is she found a way to stay alive
and be hidden. Had I have known too that she
was alive I would have found someone to take
her out.
I was prepared to do that and live with it but
when what I thought was our secret came out I
knew it was over for me. It is true when they say
a secret is only a secret when only one person
knows it. If two or more people know then that
is no longer a secret and I learned the hard way.
I am now relieved that I am no longer keeping
secrets from anyone. Especially the man I love
qwabe.
I have never seen him this hurt in all the years I
have spent with him. He has always looked at
me with love and adoration but now the looks
he gives me are that of contempt and disgust.
Why would I be hurt and blame him when I
know we are in this mess because of me and so I
owe it to them to fix things between us and I am
going to do it right.
All my kids hate me and they can't stand to be in
he same room as me. Well not all of them
because surprisingly mbuso is the one who isn't
mad at me or hates me. He still calls me mom
and the way he says it is always how he has said
it. I know what kind of man mbuso is. My son
doesn't just forgive and forget. He gets revenge
and his way of getting it is killing anyone who
has betrayed him or stepped on his shoes. I was
scared that he's going to kill me too and no one
will stop him but he didn't.
The person who's the most angry at me is
bonga. He hates me and he doesn't even try to
hide it. I hope as time goes by he will give me
the opportunity to apologize to him and maybe
we can work out on our relationship again. My
last born son has been through a lot since
everything happened and I can't even hold him
and comfort him for losing his child too. He's
still too young to be experiencing everything
like this and I know he needs me now more than
ever. He avoids me at all costs and we haven't
even said one word to each other since I saw
him at the hospital after three years.
He might be young but he's no longer a boy but
a man. What he went through with his
girldfriend made him grow up. I just hope him
amd bonga won't kick me out of their lives and
keep me away from their kids. I missed bonga's
kids and I missed mbuso's kids too whom I held
in my arms adfter three whole years.
That time away isolated from my family was the
hardest time of my life. I missed my husband I
missed my kids and I missed my grandchildren.
I will not waste this second chance I am given
and spend as much time I have with all them. I
will prove to them that I am no longer that
insecure little girl who was full of jealousy for
her sister and who didn't know what love is.
I knew what love is from qwabe. He was my
first in everything and I love him to death. He
taught me all that I know and I am the woman I
am today because of him Everytime he laid in
my arms looks in my eyes and called me his
love was something I never got tired of hearing
Everytime he said wami I would cry inside
because of the shame and guilt I felt. Qwabe and
I love been through a lot and letting go to his
one true love hurts me so deep I cry myself to
sleep every night.
I know he has been spending time and nights
with her I knew it would hurt but not like this.
Earlier today qwabe asked to talk to us outside
and he told us that he will be paying damages
and lobola for both of us as per insctructions
from luh and gogo xulu who is the helper sent
by our grandmother. I agreed because it
expected from him by our culture and tradition.
Mbuso and luh with gogo and sbani stayed
behind in Lanseria. They have to cleanse the
house and gogo asked them to stay behind they
will follow us when we are done. We arrived an
hour ago at mbuso and luh's house here in
Ladysmith. Luh's dad and aunt took the kids
with them to luh's fathers house. Zipho and his
girlfriend are somewhere in the house and
busani is with his parents. I have been in this
bedroom since we came in laying down on the
bed.
The door opens and I know it's my husband. I sit
up but don't look at him. Things are not great
between us at all and I am waiting for when he
finally tells me that he wants a divorce from me
and I will give it to him and not cause any
problems. He comes on the side I'm sitting on
and sits next to me but not that close. I hate the
distance between us but I have to suck it up.
" Qwabe. Is there anything I can help you
with?."
" why have you locked yourself in the bedroom
alone?."
" I was feeling tired so I decided to nap a little."
" But you were'nt sleeping when I came in. If
you were you wouldn't have heard me coming
in." I keep quiet. " I don't like it that you
excluding yourself from everyone."
" It's best for everyone if I am not around."
" who told you that?."
" no one. I just know."
" this is your family.You lock yourself in
bedroom and be alone and think it's okay with
everyone?."
" I was alone in a house for three years qwabe
so this is nothing. Everyone was okay with me
gone three years ago so they wouldn't mind
now."
" I didn't send you away mkami. Mbuso did."
" but you didn't stop him."
" I didn't because I knew if you were around I
was going to kill you." This is the second time
he's saying this.
" I know you would have because you have tried
before." he looks at me with shame
" That was not my proudest moment mkami.
Are you ever going to forgive me?."
" are you ever going to forgive me for what I
did?."
He takes a deep breath in and then out and takes
my hands in his. His big cold hands that have
always warmed me up.
" I have done things to you that our kids don't
know or even my family and everytime I think
about them I want to go back and undo them. I
have lied cheated beat you up and almost killed
but you forgave me for it and stuck by me
throught it all."
" That's all in the past. You are not the same
man you used to be. As our kids got older and
grew you did too. I know what I did happened a
long time ago but you found out not long ago
and it still hurting for all of you."
" It's easy to blame you for all of this because
you're the one who started it but that doesn't
mean you are not hurting too."
" I am getting what I deserve. I lied and kept it a
secret from all of you for years. It's time I paid
for my sins and let all of you be happy."
" what are you saying mkami?."
" I wish you wouldn't call me that. I am not
worthy to be called your wife." I wipe my tears
and stand up.
" I know things are not good between us but you
still are my wife." I wish that could be true. I
walk to where I put my hand bag and open it.
God this is so hard. I pull out a white big
envelop and turn facing him.
He has stood up and he's walking towards me. I
shake my head and he stops. My tears won't
stop falling. I stretch my hand and give him the
envelope. He walks to the door locks it and then
comes back. He puts his hands in his pants and
stands a few feet from me.
" What is this?."
" I have been holding on to them and I was
going to give them to you but then we got a call
about mbuso being in an accident and...."
" I said. What is this. I didn't ask you to
explain." He scares me when he gets like this.
" These are the divorce papers."
" Who's?."
" Ours." he chuckles
" You don't love me anymore?." what?.
" of course I do love you qwabe."
" Did I ask you for a divorce or give you an idea
that I want us to divorce?."
" No but I want to see you free and be with your
one true love."
" set me free? Was I in chains with you all this
time and you want me to be with my one true
love?. Who might that be?."
" I made you live a lie with me all the years we
spent together and you know wami is your one
true love."
" So you want us to divorce so I can be with
her?."
" Yes. I owe it to you both and your children to
be together. You never had a chance to be
together because of me and now that she is here
you have another chance. I won't stand in your
way that's why I need you to sign these divorce
papers qwabe please."
" You want me and your sister to be together?.
In other words you mean that you want your
sister to be with your husband take over your
family and play the Matriach of this family and
I would just be okay with it because we never
had a chance to have a relationship?. So you
will let your sister have everything you have
ever worked hard for that's what you mean?."
" I want you to be happy and make a life with
her." he walks closer and looks at the envelope
in my hand.
" make a life with her you say? I don't know the
person you want me to make a life with. I knew
a little girl that I loved then and got her
pregnant. I don't know the woman she has
become."
" she is still the same person you fell inlove
with."
"I have changed I am a man now and not the
boy she used to know. I fell inlove with her then
but not now. She might look like you and talk
like you but she can never be you in every way."
" She still loves you qwabe."
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" She still loves you qwabe."
" she thinks she does because to her I'm
still the same boy she used to know and
love."
" you can still be that and be happy
together"
" You know I don't remember a time when I
wasn't happy with you. I was so unhappy
the last three years I didn't see you. I was
miserable and stressed and the only person
I wanted everyday was you. To hold me tell
me that you love me and everything will be
okay but I couldn't. I did hate you the first
year you told us the truth. The second year
I started missing you when the anger died
down and the last year I was miserable
and I couldn't take it anymore so I came to
you so we could talk."
" qwabe...."
" no I listened to you so now you are going
to listen to me."
" You have been with me through
everything and still stayed when many
would have walked away from everything
that I was doing. You built this family with
me and gave me a very warm safe and
happy home. You have always been a
mother first to our children then a wife to
me and that has always made me proud
because I knew I chose the right woman to
have a life and build a home with. You were
not pretending to be someone else
sthandwa sam it was all you. You only had
her name and child but everything else was
all you. I forgive you for what you did mama
kaMbuso. I love you and I will always be
your husband and a father to our three kids.
This is your family and your sister won't
come in and be the queen of this family
cause that seat is only for you and no one
else." He wipes my tears.
" I know you have been spending nights
with her." he sighs and takes the envelope
from me and tears it into pieces.
" I know you have seen us and I know that
hurts you and it wasn't my intention. I
should have came to you and talked to you
about it but I didn't know how to go about it
because I knew I was going to hurt you and
I couldn't see that look on your face again
because of me."
" yet you did it anyway but don't worry. I
expected it." what can I say. He pulls me to
him and makes me look at him.
" You have never in your life stepped out of
our marriage but I have and still did even
after I promised you I won't do it again but I
have with your sister and I am sorry. You
don't deserve it ever. I took advantage of
our situation and that is very wrong of me."
" You don't have to apologize to me."
" You are hurting and that too also hurts
me. I am sorry.” I slightly nod. Can I ask
you something though?."
" You don't have to ask me qwabe. You
have my blessing to be with her too."
" It's not about that."
" what is it then?."
" There first time we were intimate I felt
something like I was your first. I thought
that maybe it's because we weren't intimate
for a year after the kids were born and I
wanted to check the sheets but you beat
me to it and I couldn't conform my
suspicion. Was I your first and only?."
" why does it matter now?."
" It does mkami. I want to know and it has
always bothered me. Tell me."
" Yes you were my first and my only." he
wraps his arms around me and I lay my
head on his chest.
" I love you mkami kakhulu futhi. Angifuni
ukulahlekelwa nguwe futhi like I almost did.
( I love you my wife and I don 't want to lose
you again like I almost did.) "
" I love you too qwabe more than you'll ever
know."
He claims my mouth with his and I just
stand there. I am afraid to let that part of
myself open again because we are now two
in his heart. He has nothing to prove to me
but everything to prove to her.
" don't be afraid mkami. I won't hurt you." I
take a step back and he looks at me.
" I need to know where wami stands with
you and with us. Are you going to take her
as your second wife?."
" I don't love her mkami. I don't know what
to do because traditionally I think the elders
are going to expect me to take her as my
second wife and honestly I don't want that.
What do you want me to do?."
" I think it is the right thing to do. I give you
my blessing to take her as your second wife
and maybe you might want to talk to your
sons and hear what they have to say before
you make a decision and I think you have to
talk to her too about being your second
wife."
" Thank you mkami. I will talk to all of them
but for now. I want to hold you and make
love to you. I miss you sthandwa sam. ( I
miss you my love.) "
" qwabe...."
" please sthandwa sam."
" I am tired qwabe. I just want to get some
sleep."
" then let me help you sleep."
" Did you use protection with her?."
" I did. Everytime." To hear that your
husband and the man you love is sleeping
with someone else hurts. Very much but I
have to soldier on.
I go to the bathroom take off my clothes
then get in shower. After I'm done I
moisturize open my bag and wear my
underwear and pyjamas. He goes to the
bed and open the bedding for me. I get in
and lie down.
" Can I make you some tea?."
" I would like that."
" Ok I'll be back."
He gives me a kiss then walks out. I wait for
a few minutes to make sure he's really gone
them I go lock the door switch the lights off
and my phone. I get in bed feeling so much
pain. I want to cry my eyes out until I fall
asleep.
Everything is just hard and a mess. My kids
are going through alot My husband has
been with my sister intimately ever since
they reconnected and I am scared that I
have already lost him to her. He might say
he doesn't love her but then why would he
go into bed with her?. He might be saying
that because he knows it's going to hurt me.
My heart feels so sore and tears fall down. I
cover myself with the duvet and sob as
quietly as I can. I hurt a lot of people and I
just want to fix everything so they can all be
happy. I will give anything again to make
this family be what it was before. My
happiness now doesn't matter but my
family's happiness does. I have to be out of
the picture so they can all be happy. After
the cleansing ceremonies and everything
expected to be done has been done I will
leave and never look back. I know it will
hurt them but it is for the best.
I hear a loud knock on the door and I close
my mouth and muffle my cries. He knocks
on the door loud and calls my name. He
knocks again getting loud and he's
threatening to kick the door off. I know he
will. I get up wipe my face and walk to the
door and unlock it.
He pushes it open looking alarmed. I look
behind him and see bonga and busani.
" Why did you lock the door when I told you
I'm going to make you some tea?."
" I wanted to be alone and sleep."
" Ma? Are you okay?." Bonga asks. My
eyes get teary. He hasn't spoken to me in
that soft tone and I missed it.
" I'm fine baby. I just have a headache
that's all. Don't worry."
" Are you sure?." busani asks. A tear drops.
I quickly wipe it.
" I am sure baby." bonga looks at his dad
with accusing eyes. I don't want him to think
it's his dad's doing that I am crying.
" ma u sure u right?." He tries to walk in but
his dad stops him.
" She will be fine. She's been having a hard
day that's all." I give them a smile they nod
and walk away.
Their dad closes the door I get in bed and
close my eyes. I hear shuffling then the bed
dips and he gets in bed with me. He turns
me around wraps his arms around me and I
hide my head on his naked chest and cry.
" Talk to me mkami please. I hate seeing
you like this." I shake my head. He sighs."
They will come around and forgive you
baby. Just give it time." I keep sniffing.
He plants kisses on my hair while his hands
sooth my back. A thought tries to get in my
mind but I fight it. I don't want to think about
them in this same postion we are in. He
holds his breath like he knows what I'm
thinking.
" Please don't sthandwa sam don't." I lift my
head and look at him. " I love you mkami.
Only you." He claims my mouth kissess me
deeply.
At first I don't return his kiss my his tongue
forces his way in me and and I moan. He
turns us and I lay on my back. He takes off
my pyjama top and pants and I let him take
them off. He gets between my legs and
hovers above me.
" Look at me sebenzile." This is the first
time I am hearing him call me by my real
name. I don't open my eyes. I turn my head
away from him. He separates my legs
brings his chest on top of mine.
He plants kisses around my face and neck.
His hands grabs grabs my thighs and
pushes them further apart. His mouth finds
mine and claims my mouth in a hard brutal
kiss then he thrusts in.
" I know what you're thinking but please.
Don't leave me." I shut him up with kiss and
enjoy the pleasure he is giving me because
it is for the last time. He won't touch me
ever again after tonight.
CHAPTER 83
UMSHADO
CHAPTER 83
BUSANI.
I had always dreamt of this moment to be find
my father and twin brother but it feels surreal
like I am dreaming. They are a close knit family
and they trust each other with their lives. I have
never seen something like this in my life. Even
thought I grew up with my uncle and his family
we never had this kind of closeness this love
and trust in the family. Everyone just live their
lives they way they wish without the others
knowing what's really going on in your life.
I have been watching and studying all of them
and they are all in sync despite all the problems
that we are having. I keep waiting to find if they
are somehow jealous of each other in anyway
but there isn't jealousy amongst them and that
makes me fell jealous because I am the odd mad
out. I don't have that bond with them and have
their trust. These are my brothers and I’m
supposed to have that brotherly bond with them
but I don't. I will though. I will be part of them
and they will trust me.
Zipho is drinking coffee and I am drinking
whiskey we are both lost in our own thoughts.
He's been quiet ever since we saw our dad and
his mom who looked like a mess. I wish I felt
sorry for her but I'm not. I hate that woman and
the conversation gogo wants us to have is never
going to happen. I know I said I forgive her but
deep down I don't. I want her to feel the pain my
mother felt all those years ago and even worse.
She was playing happy family with my family
that she stole from us and now she says she's
sorry and that gogo tells everyone to just forgive
her?. Well not on my watch.
" I'm going to bed. Night bro." we fist bump
then he leaves me. My mom comes in after a
few minutes and pours herself a glass too then
gulps it down and sits after she another one.
" Where's your father?."
" He's with her." she scoffs and shakes her head.
" Why won't she leave him alone?. I am here
now aren't I?."
" She just wants his attention and for everyone
to feel sorry for her."
" selfish bitch. I just don't understand why isn't
she giving us some space to figure things out."
" You've been sleeping with him mother since
you got here. Despite what she did dad still
loves her."
" Don't say that!." she looks around to see if
anyone doesn't hear us." Don't tell me that crap.
She tried to kill us stole my child and husband!.
All of this was supposed to be mine. This was
supposed to be my family but that bitch is
enjoying everything. She will pay!."
" calm down. You don't want anyone to hear
you."
" I want her to feel the pain I felt. I am going to
take everything away from her and that is my
husband and family."
" you said dad is going to pay lobola for the two
of you right and you'll be his second wife and
sebe told you that she won't stand in your way.
Shouldn't that be enough?."
" hell no!. She has to be out of the picture
permanently. I will not share my husband with
her. Ever!."
" I know you want revenge so do I but getting
her out of the picture permanently will raise
suspicion and the fingers will point back to
you."
" Not if we frame someone who wants her out
of the picture like us."
" uncle fanele mother! hell no. He will tell
everyone about our plan."
" Not him busani but her boys. One of them."
she has lost her damn mind!.
" Fuck No!. You will not frame my brothers
mother!. You better get that though out of your
mind."
" You have just known them for five minutes.
You don't owe them anything. I am your mother
and we are both victims here. Did you not
promise me that we get revenge?."
" yes I did. Get revenge on her but not my
brothers mother no!." what is she thinking.
" Why do you suddenly want to change our
plan?. The three of us discussed it and agreed
but now you want to drag my brothers in this?.
Do you want mbuso to kill us mother!."
" He's my son. He will understand and he won't
kill us."
" mother have you actually watched your son
like really studied him cause if you did?. You
will know that mbuso is fucken scary and he's
very protective of his family. Our brothers and
his mother your sister."
" He's pretending with her I know. There's no
way he still loves her after he found out what he
did. He will side with us."
" I don't know mother. This is a bad idea.
Maybe we should just let karma deal with her. I
don't want to lose the family I have just found."
" Stop being a baby busani. We are sticking
with the plan since you refuse to frame one of
them."
" They are your boys too mother."
" No they are hers not mine. Mbuso is only
mine."
" Well they are my brothers and I'm not doing
anything to hurt them. I want their mother dead
and that's going to hurt them but I won't frame
them."
" Look at you suddenly feeling the brotherly
love for them. I wonder if they will be
protective of you like you are on them."
" I know they will mother because they told
me." she shakes her head.
" Open your eyes busani. My own sister
betrayed me so what makes you think they
won't betray you huh?."
" They won't cause I'm the one who's about to
betray them and they can never know it is me."
" Well I want the bitch dead. She stole my life
my everything and now I'm going to get revenge
on her. She's not getting away with it."
" Aren't you scared of that gogo? That she'll see
right through you and me?."
" Oh bloody hell. Don't tell me about her. It will
be her word against ours." This is a bad idea.
" Are you planning on staying here forever?."
" I am once I claim my family back."
" what about Eric mother!. You're still married
to him."
" shush!. They might hear you. I was talking to
my lawyer and I asked him to send Eric divorce
papers." what?
" really?. You are going forget about him just
like that?. You are going to divorce a man who
loves you for a man who might not love you.
You also don't love my father mother!."
" It doesn't matter. He also betrayed me in a way
and who cares about us loving each other?. I
don't want them to be together. Period!."
" Since we've been here mother I'm seeing
another side of you that I didn't know existed.
What about my sister?. Where does she fit in all
this and are you going to mbuso that he has a
little sister in the U.K?."
" I am going to tell him when the time is right.
After all the ceremonies have been done."
" what if he already knows about Angela?. What
if mbuyi or Mabutho told him about her?."
" I specifically told them to not say anything. I
will tell my family myself."
This whole thing is stressing me out and now I
don't know what to do. Yes I want revenge on
my aunt but the other side of me is scared of
what the consequences might be. I seriously
don't want to lose my new family and hurt my
brothers. Is this revenge even worth
everything?. I know my mother is set dead
against getting her revenge and a part of it is my
uncles doing. He's the who came up with this
idea and at that time emotions were still high
after seeing my aunt for the first time and we
agreed but now I'm not so sure.
Sicelo warned me that if I do anything to hurt
her sister's family or his brothers in anyway he
will kill me and I believed him. He also told me
that mbuso loves his sister more than anything
or anyone and that includes my mother aunt and
his brothers. I believe him too and wanting to go
against him might not be a good idea. I don't
know how they operate but there's just
something scary about all of them.
" What about you?." she asks.
" What?."
" Are you going back after everything?."
" Nope I resigned from work. I am moving back
here. I need to find a house in Durban too cause
that's where they all live. I want something close
so I can always see the twins and spend as much
time with all of them as possible." she nods.
" and your partner?."
" I haven't said anything. I will talk to her and
explain things maybe she might move with me."
" Plus she's classy and beautiful. She might
teach all of the woman here a thing or two
about class. It makes you wonder if luh really
isn't after mbuso's money."
" They have class mother. They just don't flash
their money on everyone's faces. Luh's family is
wealthy mother I searched them. Between her
money and mbuso's money those two are fucken
billionaires. This thing of uncle and you
accusing her is not right. She's your daughter in-
law so please mother behave."
" Don't forget the plan. We are taking out that
bitch once and for all. I will do that with or
without your help even if it means I have to split
this family apart so I build it again then I will. I
will get my revenge on her. Are you in or out!."
" Of course I'm in!."
We hear a glass breaking in the kitchen and my
blood runs cold. We look at each other scared.
Who the fuck is there and did they hear
anything?. Oh God we are screwed!.
I get up and walk to the kitchen and see
someone crouching down picking up pieces. I
switch pn the light and see Zipho's girlfriend.
Fuck!. How did she come in the kitchen?.
" Hey are you okay?."
" oh hey. I'm fine...." she yawns. " .....I wanted
some water but the glass slipped and fell. I'm
sorry did I wake you?." what?
" uhm no. I wanted a glass of water too." she
sweeps the floor and throws the glasses on the
bin. " I didn't hear you come in though?."
" I used the other entrance leading to the kitchen
why?." she yawns again and she sounds so
sleepy.
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" I used the other entrance
leading to the kitchen why?." she yawns
again and she sounds so sleepy.
" I was just asking. I thought I heard voices
of people talking. Did you hear the too?."
she looks at me and frowns.
" no I didn't. You think someone broke in?."
" No there's security outside. Maybe it was
them."
" Yeah I guess." she takes another glass
and pours milk. " Well good night then."
" good night." she walks away. Whew I
guess she didn't hear us.
" Well did she hear us?." My mother comes
in.
" No she didn't. She's half asleep."
" Ok good. we can't risk people knowing our
plan."
" mother...."
" No busani. We are doing it. You're uncle is
going to bring the stuff."
" I'm going to bed."
" Night son." I walk to the bedroom the
housekeeper showed me.
After shower I get in bed and take my
phone and call.
" O wow you still remember me."
" Of course I do Alice. How are you?."
" How am I?. You tell me you have
something has come up and you have to fly
down to south Africa and then I don't hear
from you for days?. Well I'm fucken fine
Jason." I sigh.
" I'm sorry baby I will explain to you once
everything has settled."
" When is that going to be Jason?. When
they have found you a South African wife?."
"You're being ridiculous now Alice. You
know I love you baby."
" Then come back home. "
" I can't right now. Things are still hectic
and I promise we will talk when everything
has settled baby please understand."
" Is being there important to you more than
us?."
" It is but that doesn’t mean you are less
important to me."
"Then why haven't you shown commitment
to me Jason?. We have been together for
three years now and you still haven't said
anything about our future why is that?."
" You know very well that I couldn't do that
because I still had to find my family. I did
find them and we are still trying to fix things.
We both agreed that we won't put any
pressure on our relationship but you have
been failing to keep your end of the
bargain."
" I know we did but you being so far away is
hard and it might just create some problems
between us." what?
" what do you mean?."
" exactly that."
" I don't have time for this. I love you night."
I hang up and sigh.
I don't know what is holding me back from
marrying her but every time I think about it I
just get freaked out and so I have just ran
away from any conversation leading up to
it.
It's the next day and I feel exhausted. I
shower then go to the kitchen and the
house smells wonderful. I get in and see it's
only my aunt in there. I almost turn but I
remember gogo said we have to talk and I
guess this is the time.
" Good morning aunty."
" Good morning busani. Did you sleep
well?."
" I did and you?."
" I did too." she gives me a faint smile. She
doesn't look like someone who slept well
but had no sleep at all. I smile inside cause
as the bible says ' there's no rest for the
wicked.'
" You want some coffee?." she asks
" Yes please but I'll make it."
" It's just coffee busani. Sit down and I'll
make it." I look at her. "I wont poison you if
that's what you're thinking." I was thinking
that.
" I wasn't thinking that. I can see that you're
busy so..."
" so sit." I sigh and sit. I watch everything
she does and yes she didn't poison me. "
Here is your coffee and biscuits."
" thank you." she sits down too.
" I'm sorry for everything busani and I know
that no matter how many times I apologize
that won't fix things but I hope one day you
will be able to forgive me."
" We're you that jealous of my mother that
you decided that you were going to kill her
and me?."
" Yes I was jealous and I wish I could have
done things different but I let my jealousy
cloud my judgement and that is no excuse
for what I did."
" Were you ever going to tell my father and
brother what you did?."
" No I wasn't. I was going to die with that
secret."
" At least you're not lying to my face. I wish I
can forgive you but I just hate you. Every
time I see you with my brothers and father I
see the family you robbed my mother and I
of and my heart gets filled with hate." she
nods.
" I understand busani and I don't hold that
against you. I asked your father for a
divorce so he can be with your mother but
he refused. I want you to know that I will not
stand in their way from the relationship they
are already forming again."
" I can help you find a lawyer who can help
you draft divorce papers."
" I did that and he tore them apart." so he
still wants to be married to her?.
" what does that mean for him and my
mother?."
" You should ask him that but on my side
and I know it doesn't matter what I think but
I think they should get married and finally
have their happily ever after." maybe it
would have worked if my mother wasn't
married to another man or maybe it will
since she wants to divorce him.
" So it won't bother you when you see them
together like that?."
" I have seen them busani and your father
was never really mine to begin with. He's
now with the person he was meant to be
with." I keep quiet. " I hope you can be in
the same room as me without wanting to
turn and walk away. This is your family and
you have every right to be here too."
" I know and who knows. All of this could
have been mine." I look around mbuso's
house and She frowns. " I mean maybe my
life could have turned the same way his did.
I think growing up in the same house with
both your parents around can have a very
positive impact in your life."
" I'm sorry busani."
" Stop with your apologies because they
don't mean nothing to me!. They are just
words!."
" what would you like me to do so then
because I'm willing to do anything?."
" Be gone. Leave this country. Leave this
continent and let us move on with our lives
without you." she looks at me shocked and
scared.
" Is that what will make your mother and
you happy?."
" Yes. I can set it all up. No one has to
know. I'll send you pictures of your
grandkids so you watch them from afar
growing up." she tears up. She wipes her
eyes and looks at me.
" and if I don't go?. Are you going to kill
me?."
" That depends on you. If you don't go I will
have no choice but to kill you."
" and you think you'll get away with it?."
" I know I can and I will." she shakes her
head and I see a ghost smile.
" I will go after the ceremonies are done. I
promise." smart woman.
" I'll set it up."
" No I have already got it covered. I don't
want anyone to know where I'll be living and
I promise I'll leave the continent cause
that's what I want too."
" I'm glad we understand each other.
Deal?."
" Deal." we shake hands.
" I know you hate me and there's so much
anger inside you for me but son. I hope you
don't let your mother's anger towards me
cloud your judgement and make you do
something that you will regret. You see all
your brothers busani they love protect and
will do anything for each other and that
includes you now. Don't let them feel like
they can't trust you and my advise for you is
don't ever betray them. No matter what
happens in the future. Don't be their enemy
but be a brother to them and you'll see what
love is because all of them including their
wives will love you too and protect you.
Think about that."
I feel she is threatening me or warning me
about all of them but I don't care. The only
thing I know is she has to be gone. I now
have to talk to mom and uncle Fanele about
the deal my aunt and I just made and
convince them that we should ditch the idea
they came with and go with my plan.
My dad walks in not looking happy at all.
" Good morning." He brushes my head and
goes to kiss my aunt but she walks out of
the kitchen and my mom walks in looking
so happy.
" My two favourite people." she kisses me
and my dad on the mouth. I shake my
head. She forgot about her husband the
moment she saw him. I wonder how will he
feel when he finally knows that she's
married and the both of them are cheating
on their partners. I shake my head.
CHAPTER 84

SIMS.
This has been the worst time I have ever had in
my whole entire adult life. From finding out
mbuso was involved in accident to his mom and
dad showing up and then my sister losing her
pregnancy. I have seen luh in my situations but
the one she was in and still in has really turned
her life upside down and I know for it has
changed her. She said it herself and on top of
that the ancestors want her to make sure
everything goes according to plan they way they
instructed her.
I told her she can count on me for anything she
needs help with. She not going to do everything
on her own when she has all of us to help her. I
hope and I really wish that this is the last time
they are going through something like this. They
really need a break.
Things between me and my mother in-law have
been good. She asked for forgiveness and I
forgave her for every bad word she has ever said
and everything bad she has ever done to me. I
wanted her to know that I am nothing like her
and I will never be what she is but I am glad that
I will no longer have to worry about her around
me and my children.
Things between me and my husband are okay I
guess. Seeing that his brother was close to death
I think it woke something in him. He has been
paying more attention to me us his family. He
would cry at night scared that his brother might
die and he wouldn't know what to do if mbuso
had died. Seeing the soft and sensitive side of
him has made me love him even more than I
did.
He is always around me since I told him I was
pregnant. He couldn't believe it and he cried and
thanked me for giving him the opportunity to
grow our family more. This would have been
his third child had that girl not aborted and had a
miscarriage with his second child. We are very
excited to be expecting our first child together. I
am going to one more child for him then I'm
done having kids.
I am in the kitchen making a sandwich and I'm
alone. Bonga has taken the kids to school
because they have placed Percy to another job
who's not been doing his job well. I don't know
who they are going to hire because I can't do it
everyday. I wish I had listened to luh when she
said I can't keep doing everything in the house
myself. I need an aunty to help us and a nanny
too.
Bonga has gone to mbuso's office because the
front headline in the papers and on TV were that
" Multi Millionaire Mbuso Gumede was
involved in a life threatening accident...." The
front page has a picture of luh and him in a
dinner gala they went to last year and a picture
of him in the hospital bed. I wonder who took
the picture and posted it online gosh these
people have no boundaries. Bonga is going to
have a conference call with mbuso and his
workers. I'm just glad there wasn't anything else
about our family. Imagine if they got hold of
scandals and the fight at the hospital. This is the
last thing everyone needs. People digging
around mbuso and our family. God!.
After I'm done eating my sandwich I call lesego.
She picks up after a third ring.
" Hey sis." she answers.
" I hope I didn't disturb you too rabbits." she
laughs.
" No. Scelo went to work and I was about to
have breakfast."
" Don't eat. I'm going to the mall and I want you
to come with me."
" Ok. come pick me pick."
I drive to her house which is less than 15
minutes away and she's already waiting for me
outside. She's wearing this beautiful floral dress
revealing her boobs and huge shades hiding her
face.
" Look at you Nokuthula man and there's
nothing silent about that dress." she twirls
around for me shaking her boobs and we
laugh. She gets in we hug and drive to the mall.
" did you see the morning news and
papers?." she asks.
" Yeah I did. I wonder who took mbuso's photo
though."
" Scelo was so pissed and his phone hasn't
stopped ringing."
" bonga's too. He went to the office so mbuso
can have a conference call with his workers."
" Luh doesn't need this man. They both don't."
" I just hope they won't go digging on him and
his family especially with everything that is
going on. I'm just worried it might be too much
for luh." she says.
" I'm worried about that too." she yaws. I look at
her.
" I'm tired sims ad why aren't you in bed
anyway?."
" I was thinking maybe we could do some little
shopping and see baby clothes. I would have
loved for luh to be here as well but you know. I
don 't want to hurt her."
" Yeah I know but remember she's the first
person you told and she was very excited. She
still is and you know you don't have to not be
excited about expecting." she smiles.
" Yeah you're right and she told me to not worry
about her because despite what happened she's
very happy for us."
" After all of this is done we must do something
special for her."
" I agree."
" we are having breakfast first then shopping.
I'm so hungry."
"It's me who's not pregnant sis not you." she
laughs then goes quiet and sighs. " what's
wrong?." I park the car and switch off the
engine.
" Let's eat first and then I will tell you."
" Ok." I hope everything is okay with her. Oh
my God is she pregnant too?. I smile. I take out
my shades and put them on.
We get in the elevator and it takes us to where
the restaurants are at.
" If we get lost one of us calls the paramedics." I
tell her and we laugh.
We walk to the restaurant and there are not
many people. They show us our table and we
order.
" Out with it."
" I accused scelo of maybe being infertile." My
mouth hangs open .
" You did not!. Oh my God lesego why did you
say that?." They bring us tea.
" I know okay and I apologized. I was just
worried that it's been years and we have not
been using protection and I haven't fallen
pregnant."
" Yet sis. You're not pregnant yet. How did he
take it?."
" He was mad obviously and he walked out and
came back feeling better after he took the kids
out."
" Wait? That happened when we were in
Lanseria?."
" yes but he came back and apologized about the
way he reacted. He assured me that he is fine
and very fertile but I still feel bad about the way
I said it to him. I should have said it in a very
respectful manner."
" I'm glad you guys sorted it out but remember
sis. These men have huge egos and their pride is
everything. He's your husband and you know
him better than anyone else but don't forget that
he is also a Zulu man." we laugh.
" I know that now. The way he looked at me
when I just blurted it out yoh sis. I knew that I
shouldn't have said it in that kind of way but I
have something planned to show him how sorry
I am."
" I think gogo Xulu would have said something
to you guys. You can talk to her you know
cause she's now the adult we never knew we
needed in both families."
" You're right. I will talk to her. So how far are
you?."
" Two months. I suspected that maybe I was but
then I thought it might the stress bonga was
putting on me with his cheating."
They bring us our food and we eat. I haven't had
any cravings yet and I hope this pregnancy will
be not make me sick like Melusi and his brother.
" Have you told the boys?."
" we are planning on telling the tonight. I hope
they will be excited."
" I hope you guys are expecting a girl cause we
sure do need them in this family."
" I hope so too."
" how are things though between you too?."
" I love him but he broke my trust and it will
take us some time to be what we were before."
" He's the one who should prove to you that you
can trust him again. Not you. You know seeing
what luh is going through made me realise that
life is too short to hold grudges and be angry
because we never know how much time we
have on this earth with the one's we love.
Mbuso was almost taken away from luh just like
that sims. It could happen to any of us at any
time." she's right.
" what do you think of their new brother and
mother?."
" I think she's way too forgiving for my liking.
It's like she's pretending and wants us to like her
and think that she really has forgiven her sister
and I don't buy it and busani is well I think he's
just him. He doesn't have that thing mbuso has
you know." she makes this funny face and we
laugh.
" You're right. Mbuso has this strong personality
and aura and he's not someone you can easily
familiarize yourself with."
" sis he still scares me and that is never going to
change."
" as much as I would like to say but me too sis."
My slap chips taste so good and the vinegar
god!.
" and on the other hand my father in-law is
cheating on my mother in-law with his wife's
twin sister. The one who was suppose to be his
imagine."
" I saw it and it makes me sick sims. How does
baba cheat on his wife like that and she knows
sims?!. Just because she messed up ruined their
lives that doesn't give baba the reason to cheat
on her in front us nogal. I mean how are we
going to trust our husbands if the parents are
doing this?."
" it sucks man and I told bonga the same thing.
He just keeps quiet whenever I mention his
mother. He is still angry at her."
" He just needs time but he has to have a
conversation with her sooner than later. I hope
that woman won't be my mother in-law and her
daughter God!."
" the dress she was wearing and her wondering
eye god!." I already hate her.
" Scelo said she has three daughters."
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" really wow. I hope they won't
cause problems."
" We will deal with them. If Ursula thinks
she can come and mess up my father's
life?. Well then she has another thing
coming because I have my eye on her. But
sis let me tell you something."
" Izanazo. ( come out with it.)"
" My husband says that baba has a thing for
sis nonto." she bites her lemon slice. That
thing is bitter.
" You lie!. How did we not see this?."
" well I kind like had an idea because scelo
used to say that he thinks his dad likes sis
nonto and there's some tension between
them. "
" Well I would rather we have her as our
mother in-law than Ursula the black widow
and her three witches of daughters."
" Maybe they are not like their mother
sims." lesego is not serious.
" Ursula is a man eater and she's after our
dad's money and we are going to make
sure that she doesn't get even a dime from
him."
" Yes we will."
We hear commotion in the restaurant.
Lesego and I both turn and we see none
other than that skank who cheated on her
husband with mine. She walks in with the
Minister of Finance with their bodyguards
like really?. They need body guards?. I
chuckle. They are taken to the table that
was reseved I guess for them. How nice.
She wearing a red short dress and high
heels. Her face is beautifully hidden in that
tons and tons of make up layers. She turns
facing us and I see a little bump on her
stomach and my mouth hangs open but I
quickly close it and mask the shock on my
face. She looks like she's far ahead from
me. It's either she's three or four months
pregnant.
Her eyes land on mine before she looks
away but they come back again and she
doesn't hide the shock on her face. Her
eyes go between me and lesego then back
at me again. Her husband kisses her cheek
to get her attention. Her eyes land on her
stomach she brushes it then she looks at
me then an evil smile forms on her lips. I
look at her until she looks away.
" Sims? Are you okay?."
" That's her." she looks at me confused.
" who is she?."
" the girl bonga cheated on me with." lesego
looks at her.
" Oh my she has changed. Did she do like
some Botox or something?."
" maybe. She's pregnant sis. Did you see
her bump?." she takes my hand and makes
me look at her.
" No sims. You are not doing this to
yourself. If she is then that's good for her
and that baby she's carrying is not your
husband's so stop it." I close my eyes and
take a deep breath.
" what if..."
" Hell no. We are not doing this now. You
are going to compose yourself and not let
that bitch see that you are freaking out. If
that is bonga's child she's carrying I think
she would have told him. It's not his."
" What if it is lesego?." Oh God please don't
let it be his child.
" Then her husband wouldn’t have his hand
on her bump right now. Please don't do this
to yourself."
" You are right." I will find out one way or
another if she's carrying bonga's child.
" Let's finish here then go and look at some
cute baby clothes then face time luh. We
are not going to let this bitch ruin our day
okay sis?."
" ok. Thanks for calming me down."
We continue to eat and talk but really my
head is no longer here. I keep having this
picture of her and this girl in the bed fucking
and him enjoying it. What if Bonga had
unprotected sex with her and lied about it?.
What if she contacted him and told him and
now he's keeping it a secret from me until
the baby is born?. They had an affair for six
months and that baby could be his. This is
so messed up.
" Oh my God she coming to us." Lord give
me strength.
" If she attacks me please bail me out."
I hear her heels clicking on the tiles until
they stop next to us. I see her skinny long
legs.
" What?." lesego asks. I drink my water.
" Hi simphiwe unjani?." what are we now?.
friends ?. I can her the smile on her voice
" I said what can we help your skinny ass
with?." I look at her and she's ugly. I don't
know what bonga saw in this bitch.
" You're rude. I wanted to say..."
" say what?." I say it too loud for my liking.
She frowns like what is wrong with me?. "
what do you want?."
" I we never had a chance to talk after that
day and..." this girl had damn lost her mind.
" You wanted us to talk? about what
exactly?. Compare notes about how my
husband's..."
" Bitch you better go!." Lesego cuts me off I
can say anything else.
" I wanted you to know that..."
" I don't need to know or hear anything that
comes out of your mouth. I don't even know
what made you think you can talk to me or
even breath my way. Now go back to that
husband of yours and leave me the fuck
alone."
People are now starring and it seems as if
the attention is on us.
" You heard her. Walk away hoe!."
" Don't you call me that!." she says to
lesego and she stands up.
" You came to our table to disturb us now
walk away before I call you all sorts of ways
in front of your husband and all these
people. Walk away."
Her husband comes to our table and he's
looking us worriedly. I ask for the bill cause
I'm ready to leave this place.
" Uhm ladies is there something wrong?."
he asks
" ask your wife here. She's the one who
came to our table." lesego says. he looks at
his wife.
The waitress brings the bill and I pay in
cash the take my handbag.
" Let's go sis." Lesego takes her handbag
too. " excuse me."
" simphiwe can you maybe give me your
numbers so we can talk?." this girl really
doesn't get it.
" Who these honey?. Your new friends?."
Lesego and I laugh.
" Oh hell no. We are not friends with the
likes of her." Lesego says and I smile. My
girl has some sassy attitude and I like this
side of her. The fool laughs
" I know you are not usually the type she
usually hangs around with...." he says
looking at our bodies and starring at
lesego's boobs. Freak. ".....are you trying to
make them join your gym honey?." oh hell
no. He did not!.
"Listen here minister. We don't hang around
the type that..."
" simphiwe please!." this bitch begs me
fighting back the tears that are threatening
to stream down.
" stop calling my name cause I don't know
you. Tell your bitch ass wife to stay the fuck
away from us. This is her last warning. Next
time I'll fuck her up."
" Who the hell do you think you are talking
to like that?. "
" I don't give a fuck who you are!. Now
move the fuck out of my way before I lose
my mind!." his jaw clenches and I know I
have just hit a nerve. I bet no woman has
ever talked to him that way.
" You will be sorry bitch. No one talks to me
that way.!" he whispers loud enough for the
both of us to hear. Lesego and I smile.
" You should have asked your wife who we
are before you threatened us." he looks at
bitch ass wife.
" You are a dead man walking minister. Not
even those minions of bodyguards will save
you." lesego says grinning. Scelo should be
proud of his wife. Damn.
I gently push his wife out of my way and we
walk out. My heart is beating so fast I feel
like it s going to stop at nay minute. We
walk to the same elevator we came out of
and it takes us to where we left the car.
" I'll drive." lesego says.
We get in the car and sit in silence. We look
at each other then burst out laughing.
" Oh my God I have never been so scared."
lesego says.
" We threatened the Mister of Finance my
God we are crazy!." we continue to laugh.
" We are in so much trouble."
" I know. We have to tell our husbands what
happened but you Nokuthula
are BADASS!. Scelo must be rubbing off
on you." she laughs
" I was channelling my alter ego. I am tired
of people thinking they can walk all over
me."
" I love this side of you and thank you for
having my back."
" You would do the same for me."
She's crazy. I wish luh was here too.
CHAPTER 85

SIMS.
After we left the mall we came to my house I
cooked and took out my frustrations on the pots.
Lesego watched me cook while drinking
champagne. I had non- alcoholic one and I
wished I was drinking something stronger than
that. She left an hour ago after we had lunch and
I must say my cooking has improved. I call my
husband cause I don't know if he's going to
bring them home or what.
" lovey." he sounds like he's on the road.
" baby. Are you going to pick up the kids from
school?."
" Yeah with all four of them. What are you
doing?."
" Done cooking I'm watching the real
housewives."
" You don't sound okay. What's wrong." I stuff
my mouth with ice-cream and take a minute
before I answer him.
" I'll tell you when you're home."
" should I be worried?."
" I don't know baby. Maybe."
" are you and the baby okay?." he's panicking.
" We’re fine. I'll tell you when you come
home." I hang up before he demands that I tell
him what's wrong.
I continue to eat my ice-cream and then 20
minutes later I hear his car driving in. I knew he
wouldn't wait. God I hope he won't lie to me
when I ask him about that girl.
I hear his heavy footsteps walking in and my
body shudders getting excited and I miss him.
We haven't had sex since I caught his cheating
ass and he's afraid to even complain. He sleeps
with his hard on and wakes up with it. It doesn't
help that I sleep naked. Sweet torture.
He sits next to me on the couch and puts my feet
on his lap. He gives me a kiss then massages my
feet. I know he's not going to say anything until
I talk. I can feel his hot stare on my face.
" Where are the boys?."
" Scelo will bring them." I nod. Oh his hands are
so damn good. I think he's making me horny on
purpose. I look at him and he's smiling. I
chuckle and he laughs.\
" where's your other car?."
" Lesego took it and went home with it. I picked
her up when we went to the mall."
" Ah baby. You went baby shopping without
me?." he pouts. I laugh.
" No. we went for breakfast but we thought after
we will go and just look at some clothes but we
didn't."
" why didn't you go?."
" Well while we were enjoying our lunch
someone walked in and later came to our table
and disturbed us." I look at him.
" did they hurt you in anyway and who was it?."
he's getting mad.
" It was that skank you cheated on me with. She
came with her husband." He sighs and shakes
his head.
" What did she want with you?."
" She's pregnant."
" what?."
" yes."
" and that bitch said I'm the one who knocked
her up?!. Baby I swear I have never slept with
her without a condom or even do anything with
her without it!. I know you don't want to know
or hear that and I'm sorry but I swear on our
children's lives I didn't. That baby is not mine."
He kneels in front of me grabbing my knees and
buries his head on my lap.
" I know I have wronged you and broken your
trust and that will forever haunt me but I swear
simphiwe I am not responsible for her
pregnancy. You have to believe me baby."
I thought I would enjoy seeing him like this. On
his knees crying and begging for forgiveness but
I don't. It hurts to see him like this but he also
has to know that he hurt me and things won't
just be the same as they were before. He brought
all of this in our lives and now he might be
having a child with a woman he cheated on me
with.
I brush his head and take a deep breathe. How
the hell aree we goung to get through this if that
baby she's carrying is his. Why would she smirk
and look at me that way if it isn't his? Or maybe
she wanted to cause problems between my
husband and I?.
" get up baby please."
" I am ashamed for what I did to you and I am
so sorry."
" Hey look at me. Don't hang your head like that
I don't like it. Look at your wife please." he
does. " Sit." He sits on the floor hangs and head
on my lap. He looks ridiculous. I smile.
" when I saw her I saw the bump on her stomach
and she smirked at me. She looked at her bump
and then at me and she made that face like
you're the one that got her pregnant but her
husband was busy brushing her bump. When
she came over she said we never talked that last
time I caught you guys and that pissed me off.
Like who the hell does she think she is. She then
says she wants us to talk and asked for my
numbers. Lesego lost it baby you should have
seen her." he frowns I laugh." I didn't give them
to her then her husband came over and asked if
maybe his wife is recruiting us to join her gym."
" What?. How dare he."
" yes and he didn't like the way we spoke to him
or his wife and basically threatened us and
lesego told him he's a dead man walking. He
said we will pay. I didn't say anything about her
cheating on him cause I bet she has done it
before not with you and she will do it again. She
didn't say anything about you being the one
who's responsible for her pregnancy but I just
thought what if you know."
" I know lovey and I don't blame you for
thinking that. I wonder what is it that she wants
to talk to you though?."
" I don't know. Has she ever contacted you
again after you cut ties with her?."
" No love she didn't. We can call her and find
out." he says.
" You still have her numbers?."
" No I don't. I blocked them but I can go
through my blocked list and find them."
" Yeah do that. Call her and ask her to meet you
at your office."
" No. I'm not doing that!."
" I will be there with you but she won't know
that. Tell her to meet you in an hour. I will be in
your bathroom while you talk to her and find
out what she's up playing at."
" do you think she will tell me?."
" You have to convince her baby but you don't
touch her or let her touch you."
" I hate this but okay."
" Are you worried that the baby might actually
be yours and you're lying to me denying it?."
" Simphiwe I swear. This is the only child I am
expecting. Our child."
" Call her and put it on loud speaker."
I watch him go to his call settings to his blocked
numbers and see him unblocking the number
*Minister of Finance.* Bathong this man!. I
look at him shocked and he looks at me
embarrassed. He calls the number and puts it on
loud speaker. It rings.
" Well well well. I knew she would tell that she
saw me. Did she tell you that she attacked me?."
That bitch.
" you probably deserved it and I don't care.
Meet me in my office in an hour."
" Oh baby I missed you too. I'll be there."
" Don't keep me waiting." my husband says and
hangs up.
" So she agreed just like that and no questions
asked? Wow!."
" what do you want me to say lovey?."
" You just tell her to jump and she asks how
high? he bonga!."
" I'm sorry."
" Stop apologizing cause you're seriously
pissing me off right now!. I swear bonga you
better pray to your ancestors and your god that
she's not pregnant with your child or else?!. You
are a dead man!. I'm going to kill you myself!."
He looks at me scared and shakes his head. He
better be scared. I swear to god if it is his child I
am leaving his skinny sorry beautiful ass.
" I'm going to change." he nods and leans back
on the couch closing is eyes. This mother fucker
is scared.
When we get in our bedroom I head straight to
the bathroom and shower quickly before he
even thinks of joining me. He comes in and he
looks disappointed that I am already done.
" How long are you going to punish for?."
" Until I feel like me and my coochie can trust
you again."
" I miss you sthandwa sam. I am fucken horny
please have mercy on me."
" God gave you hands boo. Put them to use."
" baby?." he tries to touch me but i slap his
hands away and run out laughing.
" The day I get you. Ngizoku bhebha unye
nyi!." he shouts after me. I laugh so loud and he
joins me.
We are on our way to the office. Bonga called
scelo and told him we will come and get the
boys. We are both quiet on the car cause that
bitch might say something different tan what
bonga told me. He parks the car and we get out.
We greet the security guards get in the elevator
and straight to his office.
His receptionist is still there working. I look at
the time and it's almost 4pm. They knock off at
5.
" Mr and Mrs Gumede. Good afternoon." I greet
her back
" Morning Peggy. We are expecting someone.
When they come in let us know before you let
them in and don't tell my wife is here if they
happen to ask."
" Can I get you some tea or anything else
ma'am?."
" we are fine sisi. Thank you."
We walk in and I sit on his seat.
" You look so nervous for someone who's
innocent yaz gumede."
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" You look so nervous for
someone who's innocent yaz gumede."
" you're the one who's making me nervous."
" why?."
" I know you sims. I know you are not just
going to let her tell us what we want to
know. What are you up to?."
" Nothing. Did you fuck her in the
bathroom?."
" I have never. We have been through this
baby. Why are we going back now?."
" well let me see. The fact that you might be
expecting a baby with your mistress in
enough reason."
" baby..."
His phone office phone rings. We look at
each other the he presses a button.
" Peggy?."
" Sir a Miss Gumbi is here to see you." The
bitch is on time. Was it part of his rules
too?.
" Ok bring her in."
" Did you set the cameras?."
" Yes. The feed is on right on." He gives me
his laptop and I walk with it to the bathroom.

BONGA.
God this woman cannot be fucking with me
right now. I don't know what kind of game
she think's she's playing but this is too
much right now and I am going to put a stop
to her nonsense. One way or another. I
know for a fact that the child she's carrying
is not mine.
The door opens and she walks in wearing a
trench coat. Bitch my wife is going to whoop
your ass. She closes it then sashays her
legs to me.
" Stop right there."
" Oh daddy. I like it when you talk like that.
This is going to be our first time doing it in
your office and I have been waiting for this
moment right now."
" You said my wife attacked you. Show me
where?."
" Uhm I know you didn't call me here to talk
about your wife." she takes off the trench
coat and it pools down on her legs to the
floor. I see the bump my wife was talking
about. This bitch is really pregnant.
" Where do you want me?."
" I call the shots here and not you. Doesn't
your husband fuck you?."
" He does. Why am I here if you're not
going to fuck me."
I walk slowly to her and stop a few metres
away from her.
" You seem to have lost your mouth and
manners when you walked to that door."
" I'm sorry." She looks down.
" You will stand like that until I tell you
otherwise." she nods. She knows how I
used to be with her.
" Did he finally manage to get you pregnant
or you had to fuck his best friend again and
give him his third baby?." She gasps
shocked.
" I know you've been fucking his best friend
for years and those two kids are not his.
The question is how is he going to feel
when he finds out that his wife is not only a
lying ass bitch but also she's fucking his
best friend?."
" Bonga please..." she tries to pick up her
trench coat.
" Ey did I tell you to pick it up?." She shakes
her head and drops it.
" Please don't tell my husband bonga I'm
begging you."
" the last time I talked to you what did I
say?."
" You...you..."
" Ey khuluma wena man! ( talk!)."
" You told me to never contact you again
and I must stay away from you and your
family."
" and if you don't?."
" You will ruin me. You will kill me."
" Did you take my advice?."
" No I didn't."
" What did you do?."
" but Bonga you're the one who called me
here."
" Ey wena man answer my question!."
" I went to your wife and...I"
I wrap my hands around her skinny neck
and she almost screams.
" If you dare make a sound I will snap your
neck and dump your body and your
boyfriends place." she nods.
" Have you told his best friend that he's got
you knocked up again?."
" ye....yes he knows."
" Why did you imply to my wife that you are
carrying my baby?."
" I didn't I swear bonga. She's the one that
came to me and tried to attack me."
My crazy wife comes out of the bathroom
and looking so mad. Her eyes are on the
woman she wants to kill. I untangle my
hand on her throat and take a step back.
Sims walks to her lands a very hot clap on
her face and she almost falls but my wife
catches her.
" How dare you tell lies about me. I didn't
attack you but right now I just did. What
were you trying to achieve?."
" Nothing simphiwe. I wasn't doing anything
wrong. I was just showing you my bump?."
" for what reason other than you thought I
would think that my husband got you
pregnant?. Did he fuck you raw bitch and
get you pregnant?." her hand is on her
cheek.
" No he has never. He's not the one who
got me pregnant."
" So you did it because you wanted to
cause problems between my husband and I
right bitch?." she keeps quiet. " You want
problems then I'll give you problems."
" Please I'm sorry. I asked for your numbers
because I wanted to say I'm sorry. Please
don't tell my husband he will take away my
kids and make my life miserable."
" You should have left me the fuck alone
with that dirty scumbag of yours. You see
my husband. This is the trash you cheated
on me with. The riff raff that came to fuck
another man while pregnant for another and
married to another!. This is the trash you
brought in our lives that wanted to cause
problems again in our marriage."
" I'm sorry mama sekhaya ( I'm sorry my
wife.)."
" wena sfebe ( You bitch!) . Thatha lejazana
lakho and udlale kude nendoda yam ( Take
your trench coat and stay the fuck away
from my husband ). If I ever see you
breathing my way or anywhere near me.
Bitch I'll forget your pregnant and I'll give
you a beating you will never forget. Hamba
tikilain ndini!. ( get the fuck out hoe!.) "
She grabs her coat opens the door and
runs away not looking back. I so want to
ruin her life and tell her husband but
knowing that innocent kids are involved is
another thing. I know that her husband will
find out the truth some day but I am not
going to be like her. She has destroyed her
own marriage on her own and I won't be a
part of that.
" You see baby. I told you that I didn't get
her pregnant." Look at this fool.
" Is that suppose to make me happy? You
want me to give you a round of applause
because when you cheated you used
protection?. Three man were fucking her
the same time you were also fucking her!.
Who fucken knows that that 1 percent from
the condom that was carrying your sperm is
the one that made a baby huh?."
I have seen mad but this is another level. I
am scared and also worried for her and the
baby. I want her to calm down but saying
that will just add petrol to the fire that is
already burning and you never tell a blck
woman to come down when she's mad.
She'll kill you. I have to shut up and take it
like a man cause she is right. This is the
mess I created and the trash I brought in
our lives.
She really is hurt. I realise she was
pretending to be strong for us when
everything happened but right now it's too
much for her. Why did I hurt her like this.
" Why did you hurt me bonga?."
I walk to her and I try to hold her but slaps
land on my face and chest but I still pull her
to me and hold her tight and let her cry on
my chest and she just let it all out and I
know it is mixed with what I did to her what
is going on with her sister and everything
else including our pregnancy. Man life is
hard.
I walk us to the couch and comfort her. I
would take her home so we can be alone
but I know it's the last thing she wants right
now. To be alone with me. She continues to
cry then stops after a while. why t-shirt is
wet. She looks up and I wipe her tears.
" I'm sorry I slapped you." I give her a
tissue. she blows her nose and wipes her
tears on my t-shirt. I smile inside.
" Don't apologize baby. I expected it that
time you caught me. I will do anything to
gain your trust back."
" Take me home."
" ok. Let's go. I'll tell lesego to get the boys
ready." she nods.
" I want a nanny and someone who's going
to help us around the house. I can't keep up
with the boys." she doesn't mad anymore.
" They have to start doing chores around
the house too. Frank hired this guy to take
over from Percy since he's been slacking.
He's the security guy who was at the
hospital and kept luh's phone safe. He has
a family. His girlfriend and child."
" Can we trust him?."
" yeah they checked him he's clean and
with more training he'll be fine.."
" so you were thinking what?."
" I was thinking he can drive the boys to
and from school. His girlfriend or wife can
help you in the house if you want. You will
decide. Their kid can go to school with the
boys."
" Ok call frank and hear what he has to say.
We can meet them and take it from there."
" ok baby. Lets go and get the boys."
I help her up. We look at each other and I
know without a doubt that I fucken love this
woman. I give her a chaste kiss and we
leave.
CHAPTER 86
LUNGI.
#NOTEDITED.
The hum of the hair cutting machine is the only
sound I can hear and feel on my head as I watch
my hair falling down my face. The cool breeze
air brushes my skin and it feels so wonderful. I
close my eyes and feel the air all around my
head. I asked my aunt to cut all of my hair off.
She was not happy about it and my dad forbade
me to cut it all off but I told them that I am
doing this for my child and I hope she will be
the only child I have lost. I hope God won't take
another child from me. My husband was okay
with any decision I took.
I stand up after my aunt finishes cuttung my hair
and pick it up from the ground. I put it inside the
plastic bag dad takes it to the rondavel and to
burn it in the coal stove that we have. Mkhulu
Nyandeni gives my aunt a 20 litre bucket filled
with herbs and other things to cleanse me with. I
walk just far away from the house. I am barefoot
and my body is covered with a blanket only.
" Give your aunt the blanket. Luh when I pour
this water on you you will wash every inch of
your body. Uyezwa sisi?. ( do you understand?.)
" I nod and give my other aunt the blanket. "
You will kneel down wash your head face and
chest then you will stand up and wash the rest of
your body." I do as she says.
The water is cold when she first pours it on my
head but then it cools me. I wash my face chest
everywhere my hands lend I stand up an wash
the rest of my body including the souls of my
feet. I make sure I don't leave nothing unwashed
until we finish. My other gives me the blanket
and I wrap myself with it then we walk away.
I go to my bedroom and find my husband there.
He looks like he just go back too cause he's
sitting on the bed. My cousin was the one
helping him cleanse. His bruises around his face
are now better. It scares me when I think he just
walked out of the hospital even though we went
the next day and the doctor said he's fine but
mbuso has refused to go see another doctor and
this morning he was busy doing sit up and
training. I wish he would take it slow and let his
body recorver and not strain it. I will make sure
that we go for another check up today even if I
have to drag him there myself.
He looks at me and smiles. He gets up drops the
blanket he was also covered in goes to lock the
door then he takes my hand and leads me to the
bed. I drop the blanket open the warddrobe and
take another clean blanket. We get in bed and
he pulls me ontop of him and covers us with the
blanket. I love this. I smell him he laughs and
the smells me too.
" We both smell weird." we laugh. His engorged
shaft is pocking me and it doesn't help that I am
on top of it.
" You look so beatiful baby. I didn't want you to
cut your hair off though?."
" Why?."
" because where will I sink my fingers in when
we make make love and when I fuck you." I
giggle.
" well I have many thungs on my body that grab
and you can grab on too. Like my boobs ass my
thighs my...." He shuts me up with a hot
scorching kiss that leaves me breathless.
" We can't have sex until when we get cleansed
by your family."
" I asked gogo Xulu if it's okay we have sex and
she said yes. We are already married and we
have been cleansed so..."
" I want us to go to the doctor so we can find out
if it's okay since I stopped bleeding."
" ok baby we'll go. We haven't been alone since
everything happened and I miss you sleeping
next to your naked body and have my way with
you." I giggle.
" Our house is packed. Everywhere you turn
there's someone in there and the tension is just
making everything worse." he asks.
" Are they stressing you?." I sigh and kiss his
shoulder.
" No maybe I don't know. I just miss having our
home to ourselves. I hate the tension between
your three parents and zipho's girlfriend is not
talking to him after he told her he loves aother
woman too and he wants to marry both of them
God. It's like my house is place where everyone
just comes to deal with their problems." He
soothes my back.
" I know baby but that's what you get being the
first daughter of the family. Zipho is now close
to you more than all of us and for him now this
is home since he's not talking to our parents.
something happened but I'm not sure what that
means.."
" What do you mean?." I look at him.
" I looked at the cameras in the house and
busani was talking to my birth mom and the
conversation they were having looked like it
was very serious. Zipho's girl came in and she
walked closer to the living and heard them
talking. She looked scared and busani saw her
then she walked away. I have been watching her
around him and she looks uncomfortable when
he is around."
" I hope it's nothing bad baby. I can talk to her
and maybe she'll talk to me."
" yeah do that. Maybe we should put sounds
around the house."
" No. The camera's are enough. I don't want our
family feeling uncomfortable when visiting us."
I don't think he is hearing me because he keeps
nibbling my ear and his hands are groping my
ass.
" Mbuso....."
" hmmmmmm." he flips us and he's now
between my thighs.
" You're still hurt and......." he shuts me with a
kiss. I moan.
"And I am still capable of making love to my
wife."
He rubs his dick on dick on my clit up and down
and god it feels good. He brings his whole body
weight on me. His dick is on my clit and
between us. He entwines our hands together
then moves his waist. The way he is moving
agaisnt my clit is making me moan in his mouth.
He moves down my body and covers my labia
with his warm lips and mouth and continues to
feast on me. His hands move to my breasts and
he squeezes them and plays with my nipples. He
tongue fucks me then rubs my clit with his
thumb.
Atingle travels all around my body and my toes
curl. I bite my lip hard to prevent me from
screaming because I am coming. My husband
moves up quickly and thrusts in me and stills as
he spills his seed in me and we both cum
together. Our tongues meet and greet each other
like long lost lovers. Limbs tangled around each
other His being still in me he wraps his arms
around me and hugs me tight.
" How did I get so blessed and lucky with
you?."
" Buhle happened." he looks at me and we both
laugh.
" I so badly want to fuck you but I can't. after an
hour we'll get up and go see the doctor."
" No we should get up now. If we stay like this
we won't leave thuis room and I don't want to
upset dad more." He brushes my head.
" But he saw that you're still beautiful."
" I know baby. They are all probably thinking
we are fucking right now." He laughs and his
dick expands in me again. " mbuso...."
" he has a mind of his own. Fuck it is so warm
inside I dont want to pull out." I give him the '
you better look even thoght I want the same
thing too." he sighs and pulls out and some of
his warm seed comes out too. My body screams
bloody murder because it is not satisfied. We
still want them.
My husband comes back with a wet towel and
we wipe ourselves. He even helps me dress then
dresses himself. We walk out of our bedroom
and the house is packed with our family
members and family friends eating inside and
outside the house. The people who saw mbuso
and hus twin and his mothers were shocked
because they all look alike.
We walk in the kitchen and find Lesego doing
her makoti duties. The way she's stirring that pot
you can see that she's taking out her frustrations
on that pour pot and whatever that is inside.
" Eh MaMotaung Sawubona. What did that pot
do to you?." she turns facing us.
" Dumela bhuti' Mbuso. Hi sis." Ii walk to her
and pull her in for a hug cause she looks like she
wants to cry. I hope scelo didn't upset her or
anyone in the house.
" What's wrong?." My husband asks her.
" My sister showed up and Durban last night
and we had to pick her up. She came with us
and she's outside."
" what the hell does she want?." I ask her.
" isn't it my husband who once told her she's
free to visit us at any time and then yesterday
she decides to just show up without telling
anyone."
" Which sister?."
" Last born." he nods.
" She thinks maybe things are good between
you too since you got married. Talk to her and
tell her how you really feel. Don't sweep it
under the rug and just think it's going to go
away. She might have been sent by your parents
to see how you live in your home. I don't blame
scelo for agreeing to her visit. He knows when
she goes back she's going to tell them how you
live and how you treated her. Nokuthula you
know sometimes the people that did you wrong
will forget how they treated you and some will
even pretend to have forgotten. Don't treat them
the way they treated you. Kill them with
kindness and if they still give you problems well
there are ways we can deal with them." What
the hell?. He smiles and winks at me.
" I'm joking about the last line. My wife will kill
me. This is your home she's a guest in this
home. Your guest and you know that we always
treat our guests good and make them feel at
home. We keep our friends close and enemies
closer. What is your sister to you now?. A friend
or a foe?. Are her intentions for being here
around your family good or not?. I'm sure your
husband is watching her. We all are so don't
worry. We've got your back." He kisses my
cheek the leaves before lesego can say anything.
" Oh luh. Thank him for me okay?. I feel better
now." we hug and I wipe her tears.
" Dad will not be happy if he sees you crying so
no more crying. I won't let them hurt you again.
Even your sister lesego. If she gets even out of
line then she's gone."
" You're my sister. Sims and you are my only
sisters."
" and we love you too. When did you get here?."
" An hour ago."
She goes to tell me about what happened to the
mall and we laugh it out. Sims had already told
me but hearing if from how my sister dealt with
that girl is so funny. This is the attitude she
needs to have towards her sister. I leave her and
go find my husband and we go to the doctor.
We goo to Mbuso's appoint first and the doctor
examines him and my husband is healing and
healthy but he will have to come back again
next week. We go to they gynae He checks my
file and I tell him about the miscarriage and
everything else. He does sonogram and the
preganancy tissue has passed meaning I am
healed. I go to the other room and fix my dress
then walk back and they are talking.
" Mrs Gumede have you and your husband
talked about if you would like to be on birth
control again or not?."
We hadn't really talked about that. He takes my
hand and looks at me.
We hadn't really talked about that. He takes my
hand and looks at me.
" whatever you want my love. I will support
you."
" It's not only my decision to make
Phakathwayo. I might be carrying them on my
body but we make them together."
He palms my face and plants a kiss.
" I do want us to to have at least two more kids
but only when you are ready." I smile.
" Losing our child made me realise that I want
to have more kids with you and I don't us to
wait."
" are you sure love? I don't want you to say that
because I said it first." I shake my head.
" I want to have mini little gumede's that look
like you and me."
" I want us to have mini you's this time." I
laugh.
" Uhm I'm sorry to disturb you but we can
actually do that." we look at him.
" how?." I asks him.
" Your husband gives us his sperm we check to
see how many boys and girls he is carrying then
we take that sperm and fertilise your eggs and
you have little mini mrs gumede's." Wow okay.
" what do you think?." I ask my husband.
" No. There is no way I am going to let my
sperm be somewhere I don't know and in the
hands of strangers. We will make our kids the
old fashion way. Just how I love it." I knew he
wasn't going to agree and I am okay with that. "
I want god and our ancestors to bless us with
kids they chose for us and I know they will give
us what we want. Having you carry my children
is my biggest accomplishment in this world."
" I love you."
" I love you more khanyo." I laugh. " sorry doc
we forgot about you." I apologize.
" It's okay. My job here is done. I guess I will
see you when There's a bun in the oven. Thank
you for coming" we laugh and shake hands.
We leave his office and we go to my dad's
house where everyone is at. All our kids are
there and it makes me happy to see everyone
that I love.
We drive in the yard and it is still full. Bonga
and sims have arrived too. I greet all those I
haven't seen amd my husband goes to joing the
men where they are sitted. I walk in the kitchen
and it is packed. I wonder if they all are going to
come with us tomorrow when we go to
Pietermartzug. I see the youngest Gumede and
he is with his other girlfriend and she too doesn't
look happy. I sneak away from the kitchen
before sims can see me. I know we won't stop
talking if she sees me. Right now I need to talk
to Tshego.
I walk around the house then I see her outside
watching my twins play. I open the door and sit
next to her. She relaxes when she sees it's me.
" Why are you hiding here alone?."
" I coming back from the bathroom and I saw
the boys playing and the next I know I'm sitting
here watching them play." I smile. They are
playing with their other cousins. Their noise and
laughter is what I live for.
" how are you though? For real?." She sighs
exhaustingly.
" I love a man who's a polygamist and I don't
know if I love him enough to accept that I am
not the only one in his heart. It's just too much
for me especially seeing them together." I don't
want to be either of them right now.
" have the three of you sat down and talked or
maybe the two of you?."
" I don't know how to do that sis Lungi. I want
to hate her but how do I when I know it's not her
fault?. She too didn't ask for this. Zipho said we
will talk tomorrow." I nod.
" Do what makes you happy tshego. Don't put
any body's happiness above yours. Make sure
that whatever decision you make ypu will live
with it and not regret it."
" Thank you sis lungi. I will do that."
" Have you talked to your parents and told them
what happened?."
" I did and they are not happy. They are born
agains and me falling pregnant before marriage
is sin in their eyes. I was supposed to be at home
this weekend but I didn't go. They know very
well that I am not a born again but still."
" They are your parents tshego and they are both
still alive. You have to resppect their wishes
even if you don't agree with them. They raised
you and you not doing as they told you is like
you are disrespecting them and I don't think
those are your intentions."
" I talked to my grandmother and she said it is
fine. I will come back the day after tomorrow
when I have been cleansed."
" Girl you are blessed. I wish my mom was still
around but she's not. You still have a mom and I
think she really cares about you despite her
religious beliefs. Talk to her and explain that on
monday you will be home. Maybe she's even
hurt that she wasn't there for you when you lost
your baby." She sniffs.
" sometimes I wish I would died with her or
him. What if I don't ever have children again sis
lungi?."
" did the doctor say you are never going to fall
pregant?."
" no she didn't but what if?."
" No tshego don't think that. You will have
beautiful gumede babies but God forbid if it
ever happens then you can always adopt or the
children your sister wife will have will be yours
too."
" This is so hard and I am still hurting.
" You have my support tshego. We both didn't
know that we were pregnant and we lost our
kids. Yours was killed and mine was taken away
to save my husbands life. We have little angels
up there watching over us. They are with their
ancestors and I know they know that we love
them very much. Take comfort in that."
" Whe is it going to stop hurting?. "
" I think when the day we talk about it and we
don't cry. I think it will stop hurting then." She
nods then hugs me tight. I feel like a big sister. "
I need to talk to you about something else
though." she pulls back and looks atme.
" am I in trouble?."
" No you are not. I just need your help with
something."
" Ok."
" That night you all drove here. You were in the
kitchen and you saw My husband's twin with his
mother and they were talking. You were
eavesdropping on them and after you looked
almost scared. What did you hear?."
Her body goes ridig and she looks at me scared.
She looks arond like she is scared.
" Please sis lungi I don't want trouble." she
heard something that frigtened her.
" You are not going to be introuble tshego I
promise you. I just need you to tell me what you
heard?."
" How did you know?."
" We have cameras in the house excluding the
bedrooms. Tell me what you heard."
" Sis lungi I once dated Themba and he used to
say your husband is a very scary man and I
believe him. Ubhuti Mbuso scares me alot
but..."
" My husband is scary to a lot of people who
don't personally know him and I understand
why you might feel terrified to tell me what you
heard. If you decide to marry in this family
tshego you will have to trust all of us and know
that we have got your back no matter what.
Mbuso will protect you like how he always
protects me. With his life because you will be a
gumede too." Ok maybe a lied a little with him
protecting her like he does me but nevertheless
he will protect her.
" I know mbuso is big and terrifying but he will
never hurt anyone intentionally." Tears stream
down her face.
" I'm sorry sis lungi but I didn't hear anything. I
tried to hear what they were saying but they
were whispering."she's lying to me.
" Did busani threaten you? Is that why you are
afraid to tell me what you heard?."
" No he didn't." she shakes her head furiously.
" Tshego is my family in danger?."
" I have to go sis lungi."
" tshego I promise you he won't hurt you. We
will tell my husband what you heard and he will
protect you please!." she quickly gets up and
runs to the house.
" fuck!." I have to make her talk before my
husband makes her talk.
" what has gotten you so upset and cursing. I
have never heard you curse before."
I chukle get up smiling and hug him really tight.
" I missed you." he kisses my forehead
" Angithi you are grown now and don't need
your big brother?." I laugh.
" I'll always need you. I need your help right
now."
" what's wrong?."
" Can you please get me a sign language
interpreter who can read lips. I need them now
bhuti scelo." he frowns.
" Does mbuso know about this?."
" He doesn't and something tells me I need to
know about it first before he finds out."
" you are scared luh. what's wrong?."
" just get me that person and then please get
someone who will investigate busami and his
mom."
" but mbuso has already done that?."
" What? When?."
" When you're sleeping sis." ever since we have
been here he's been in his office. I thought it
was about work and his face all over the media?.
I guess when he saw tshego freaking out he
decided to investigate them?.
" what did he find?."
" he didn't say. He just said he's waiting for the
right opportunity."
" Ok fine i'll ask him but please get me that
person and keep it between us okay?."
" On it." He takes out his phone.
I know I shouldn't be surprised that he was
investigating them but why didn't he tell me this
morning and what did he find that he hasn't
shared with anyone and on the other side
Tshego is scared to tell me what she heard. I
hope that person will be able to help me.
CHAPTER 87
UMSHADO
CHAPTER 87
MBUSO.
I haven't been home in a while and I must say it
is good to be back where I grew up. The
gumede family is all here and news about my
birth mother and twin brother apparently spread
like fire and when they saw my twin they were
shocked and very happy to see him. The
downside is that my birth mother has been
telling everyone who would listen about what
my did to her.
She got the sympathy she wanted and my
mother has been getting nasty looks from most
of our extended family members. One thing I
hate though is how my birth mother is making
my mom feel uncomfortable in her own house. I
don't like it at all and dad is not making things
easier for her cause he's busy comforting my
birth mother. The elders want dad to divorce
mom and marry our birth mother. I wish I was
surprised but I knew they would say that.
After we were cleansed my wife left with her
brother and I don't know where they went to.
The just got in the car and drove out. I asked her
last night if she talked with zipho's girl and she
said she tried but they got disturbed every time
she tried to talk to her. I just hope she will have
a chance to have a talk with her.
We are now in the living having a family
meeting. All the Gumede elder males are here
and some of elderly women including my
mothers and aunt. They are seated down and
gogo Xulu is also present but she has been too
quiet for my liking and she keeps shaking her
head like she's talking to herself. I hate that my
uncle is here because he seems to be pouring the
petrol on the fire instead of trying to calm the
elders down because my mother is also her
sister in case he has forgotten.
" Mzukulu where is the daughter of this
family?." Gogo Xulu says to me.
" She left gogo with her brother but they on
their way back." she shakes her head.
" Not all that is done in the dark remains hidden.
Secrets lies and envy will destroy. Listen to
your heart before the unimaginable happens.
The cloak doesn't hide everything because there
is one who sees and knows. " she says looking
at everyone in this room. What is gogo talking
about?.
" Gogo?." I call her." Is everything okay? What
you have just said gogo what does it mean?."
" It means that your wife is up to something.
She's up to no good wherever she went to."
" Malume don't start with your nonsense
please!."
" and wena? Who said you can be here cause the
last time I checked you are a Zikalala not a
Gumede?." my aunt says to uncle Fanele.
" I am here because I want my sister to have
what is rightfully hers."
" I know what she did was very wrong and I am
happy for mbuso that he is reunited with his
birth mother and brother but this is Sebenzile's
house. She worked very hard for this home to be
the way it is today. I will not let you wena
Fanele or you Owami play house in my sister's
house and make her feel unwelcomed in her
own home!. Never!." she slaps her on the floor.
" This house this life that she was living was
supposed to be Owami's but she stole it. All of
this is rightfully Owami's. All of it!." Fanele
says. Bonga and I look at each other and he's
mad. He looks like he wants to wrap his hands
around our uncle's neck."
" Hhey wena Fanele! If your sister wants a
home of her own then my brother will buy her
one but she is not going to live in this house!.
Angithi all of you have turned your backs
against Sebenzile then I will stand with her. All
of that happened years ago. I don't know that
little girl you are talking about and I certainly
don't know you Owami. My brother told me that
sebenzile doesn't have any problem taking you
as his second wife but that doesn't mean that
you will act as if you are the lady of this house
no sisi!. Go start your own home and take
qwabe with you because he definitely doesn't
deserve the mother of his children."
" Lwethu kahle ngolaka. Silapha nje ukuthi
sizothola isixazululo sayo yonke lento
eyayenzeka. No one has turned their back on
Mbuso's mother. ( calm down Lwethu. We are
all here so we can get a way forward regarding
this situation we are facing.) " One elder says.
" The moment all of you heard what she did all
those years ago you turned your backs on her
and forgot about all the good she did for this
family. The hurt abuse the lying and cheating
she endured in the hands of my brother suddenly
it doesn't matter because of a woman you barely
know. Do you think owami will do all the things
sebe did for this family?. I don't think so." My
brothers look at me and I look down. I was older
than them when growing so sometimes I would
see my mother crying and I would hear them
arguing about his infedelities.
" Zipho tell uKhanyo to come inside she's
needed." Zipho gets up and comes back with my
wife who looks like she was crying. Her face is
red and she won't look at me. I get up.
" Sit down mbuso. She will be fine." hell no!. I
get up and walk to her.
" love are you okay?." She nods and pulls me to
sit down next to her. I do. I drape my arm on her
shoulder and pull her close. I don't want to be
here now. My wife is not okay and I need to
know what upset her.
" You don't even know her but you're already
judging her lwethu. Give her a chance then you
will see that she is a good woman." Fanele says.
" Ok good woman. Tell me this. So wena all
these years you were just waiting for qwabe so
you can pick up where you left off?. You didn't
have a life at all Owami?. All these years you
were waiting for the day that mbuso comes and
looks for you?." All eyes go to my birth mom.
" How the hell was she suppose to know when
she lost her memory?." No one talks. I keep
looking at my dad waiting for him to say
something but he's just quiet.
" Can I say or ask something." Fanele opens his
mouth to say something but I look at him and he
stops.
" You may." An elder says.
" Uncle Fanele here knew that he has twin
sisters but he has never tried to go look for his
other sister and nephew how come uncle. You
are the only person who knew about my
husband's existence but yet you never tried to
look for him even though you had my father in-
law's name and surname?. Why didn't you try to
look for them?."
" I did and I failed. The only thing I was focused
on was making sure that my sister recovers and
raising his son. I thought she ran away and
changed her identity and mbuso's Identity."
" we get that and we thank you for raising him
but I am not satisfied with your answer. Owami
you didn't answer my question." My aunt says.
" what did you ask me?."
" What were you doing all those years ago?.
You never dated got married and had other
children?."
My wife's head shoots up and she looks at
Busani. I look at him too and he looks away
then gets up and leaves. Luh gets up too almost
like she's running after him. I look at my birth
mother and she's looking at the door where
busani walked out of. Her eyes find mine and
she looks away.
" Mbuso go talk to your wife now."
I was going to leave whether she said or or not. I
open all the bedrooms doors and they are not
there. I walk to the kitchen and she's there with
the others but I don't see busani.
" Luh come here." I take her hand and lead her
to our bedroom. I lock the door. She has her
hands under her armpits and she's pacing. I sit
on the bed and look at her.
" Talk." she looks at me.
" Why didn't you tell me you were investigating
them?."
" I was going to tell you that's why I wanted you
to talk with zipho's girl."
" She didn't talk. She's scared of you and I think
she's scared of busani. I don't know if he
threatened her pr not but she wouldn't talk even
after I promised her that you will protect her."
" Ok where did you go to with your brother?."
" I asked him to get me a sign language
interpreter who also read lips. I wanted to find
out what they were talking about. We went to
meet her and I showed her the footage."
" talk luh. What did she find out?."
" I think you should talk to busani and ask him
first."
" I will after you tell me what the interpreter
said." She heaves a deep sigh and sits next to
me. " Talk to me love."
" Your birth mother is married to a white man
and you have a younger sister. Busani has a
girlfriend that he left behind."
" Love I know all of that. I want to know what
scared tshego?."
" You knew and you didn't tell me?."
" Luh you know I don't hide anything from you.
I was going to tell you okay and I'm sorry if it
seems I was hiding it."
" ok baby. Your uncle mother want revenge on
your mother. They are planning to kill her after
everything has been done. Busani knows and he
was trying to convince your mother that they
shouldn't do it but your mother wants her dead
mbuso. It's her and fanele's idea. She didn't
forgive uMa or your dad. She wanted to frame
bonga and zipho for her death but busani
refused. She hates them She hates all of us
excluding her kids. She's pretending to be this
loving nice and forgiving woman but deep down
she's rotten. She's planning on divorcing her
husband to move back here so she can have the
life that was taken from her. The only person
standing in her way is uMa. Busani said that she
made uMa a deal that she should leave after
everything has been done and he said uMah
agreed that she will leave. I think fanele and
owami will still find her and kill her. We should
tell uMah no Baba mbuso and expose them." I
put my hands on my head and take a deep
breath.
" This is fucked up love. I really believed her
when she said she forgave uMa. I know she's
angry but I didn't think she's to a point that she
wants avenge herself. I thought we will all have
a clean new start and become this one big happy
family but that seems like we are never going to
have that because there are secretes and lies. So
she was going to divorce her husband without us
knowing then after she's married to my dad she
will introduce our sister to us?. How cruel is
that?. Busani looked me in my face that I can
trust him. That we can all trust him but he's busy
scheming behind our backs and threatens to kill
our mother?."
" My husband look at me. I am not making any
excuses for him but busani feels robbed of all of
this and he is hurt because you love the woman
that almost killed your mother and him. It's not
easy for him at all. He wants to please his
mother and on the other side he's thinking about
his new found family and his relationship with
his brothers. I know he's a grown ass man but
his mother anger might cloud his judgement and
he might do something that he will regret just to
please her and I don't think he wants that. He
doesn't want anything to happen to his brother
and father but your mom has a hold on him and
that might get him killed."
I lay on my back and look up.
" I don't want to hurt my brother luh but how am
I going to trust him around my family? Around
you and our kids?."
" You trust me and that's enough. Busani needs
you now as his big brother. Give him a chance
to come clean and tell you what they talked
about and what fanele and his mother are
planning. Your mother is still hurt and right now
her heart is filled with anger and revenge and
fanele is feeding on that. Remember love what
your great grandmother said. We have to fix
thing and not let blood spill cause history might
repeat itself. Talk to your bother love and if he
fails to tell you the truth then you cut him out of
our lives forever like before we knew he
existed."
" I will talk to him but we will not tell anyone
else. I want to see hoe they think this plan of
their will work. They are in for a surprise.
Fanele will regret the day he decided to speak
shit about you. As for my mother? hmmm."
" no blood spilling." she says.
" What made you cry?."
" The things I heard. I wanted to kill them when
I knew what they were planning. I felt betrayed
cause we welcomed them with loving and open
arms but...."
" It's okay love. I fix it. Don't worry."
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" It's okay love. I fix it. Don't
worry."
" What's going to happen to your parents
though?."
" I want my mom to leave my dad. He
doesn't deserve her. She has been patient
with him for many years but I think this was
the last straw. He cheated on her with her
twin sister. I don't know how they are going
to fix it if they try."
" what about your sister?." I take out my
phone and show her Angela's photos.
" She's so beautiful baby. Mixed babies are
beautiful."
" Haibo sisi? Are you trying to tell me
something?." She throws her head back
and laughs.
" I love my babies with you. Are you going
to try and reach her?."
" I don't know if she knows about me love.
I'll ask busani and take it from there but for
now I have someone watching her making
sure she's safe."
" I hope she's nothing like her mother."
" I hope so too love. Let me go have a talk
with busani. I'll see you later. Be ready for
me." She blushes.
" Quickie?." She quickly gets up and runs
out laughing outside the bedroom. I'll get
her.

LUNGI.
I watch as my husband gets in the car with
busani and my brother. I stand and watch
them until the car disappears. I walk back in
the house and sit down. My sisters and
soon to be sister in-laws are sitting and no
one is talking. Ok what is going on?.
" You are all sitting on the table and not
talking?."
" My sister is in my house and God knows
what she's doing." lesego says.
" she's in your bedroom hiding something
under your bed. When you get home
remove thing burn it but don't touch it with
your hands. I'll give you something to
sprinkle in your whole house." Sbani says.
" So you are just like gogo. You are a
seer?." sims asks.
" No I'm not. Visions just come and go."
" I am horny and I'm punishing my husband
from his cheating by with holding sex."
" He won't ever cheat on you. He knows he
hurt you and he's sorry. Give it to him."
sbani says to sims.
" Thank you for that sbani. I think I needed
to hear it from someone else other than my
sisters."
" what about the sister wives here who
won't even look at each other." sims doesn't
have a filter sometimes.
" They will be fine. They love him and he
loves them."
" why does it sound like there's a but in
there?." I ask her.
" no buts." hmmm
" Are you going to give sbu a chance
because the man loves you. We all can see
that." lesego asks her
" He's a polygamist too and I am not. Plus
he loves a woman he can never have. I
don't know if I can be his number two or
three." oh I wonder who it is.
" You guys will figure things out and make it
work. I have faith in you too."
" Not all of us are lucky like you luh." sbani
says. I frown.
" What do you mean lucky?." sims asks her.
" Mbuso loves you. Only you. He sees you
only and everything is about you."
" He loves me like how I love him and yes
everything must be about me to him
because I am his he is mine only. I'm not
lucky I'm blessed and if you give sbu a
chance everything in him might be about
you too sbani. Just open your heart to him
and stop worrying about the other person
he loves. The only thing important is that he
loves you and wants you."
" Well said luh." lesego says.
" How do you do it?."
" do what?."
" be everything to him because he is
obssessed with you."
" Sorry luh to jump in. Sbani I want to tell
you something cause to me it looks like you
lack experience with men. When luh met
mbuso it wasn't rainbow and sunshine. It
wasn't lovey dovely that you see now and
think everything is about her. Mbuso loves
his wife the way all married men should.
Her happiness is everything to him because
he knows without her he is nothing. Luh
respects her husband and she submits to
him. She's the only one whom he listens to.
A man sbani only wants one thing from his
wife and that is respect. When you respect
and submit to your husband then he will
worship the ground you walk on." sbani
nods.
" My love with mbuso began with tears lots
of them then they grew into smiles and
kisses and the love that we absolutely have
for each other. Mbuso and I have been
through things you couldn't imagine and
everyday I am thankful that it was him who
saved me from the life I was living and the
one that was planned for me. I love my
husband and I will do anything to make
sure that no one hurts my husband my
family. I always want him to be happy the
same he makes me happy. He's my
soulmate he's my everything. Him and our
children."
" That is beautiful sis lungi. Mina I love the
way uBhuti mbuso loves you. I wish zipho
was that way with me too." Lindo says. The
first girlfriend we were introduced to. I
wonder who will be the first wife?. Her sister
wife looks at her
Aunt Lwethu comes in and she's not looking
very happy. She sits down and soon my
mother in-laws come in too and they sit
down.
" Sisi..."
" Kahle sebenzile. How can you be so quiet
and let them talk to you the way they want
huh?."
" For things to go well I will agree because I
don't want my children to be hurt in all of
this."
" They are also my children too sebe. I love
them." God this woman is good.
" Is everything okay ma?." Sims asks our
mother in-law.
" Can you make me some tea?."
" I'll make it." Tshego stands up.
" My beautiful daughter in-laws. I see my
sons love big woman."
" We are big. bold beautiful have full
breasts like our mother in-law. I get why
they would be attracted to us because our
mother in-law is built the same."
" I can see but don't you..."
" whoa miss London. You like yourself
skinny and we love ourselves like this. We
are not fat Owami don't get confused."
" You really don't like me lwethu why?.
What did I ever do to you?."
" There's something off nje about you. I
don't know what it is but I will find out."
" I am not hiding anything. I just want to
have a chance of happiness."
" But you did sis owami and you now want
to risk it all away. What a shame." sbani
says.
" what is she talking about?." aunty asks
" How the hell would I know?!." She gets up
and leaves the kitchen.
" What are you hiding Owami? Where are
you going?. What is she hiding?." aunt
Lwethu asks
" I'm sorry to say this but I don't trust her."
sims says and we all agree.
Only if uMah knows that her brother and
sister want her dead but I know that my
husband won't let that happen. I just hope
busani will tell him the truth and maybe just
maybe they will have the relationship they
both want. What I know for sure is that
bonga and zipho can never know that their
aunt and uncle wanted to frame them for
the murder of their mother. I will never look
at my husbands birth mother the same. I
don't know how I am going to react when I
am around her but I am going to try my best
and be nice until the truth is exposed. As for
uncle Fanele I don't care if he dies.
Personally I don't ever want to see him ever
again after everything is done.
CHAPTER 88
UMSHADO.
CHAPTER 88
LUNGI.
I finished bathing the kids after dinner then put
them to bed. I know other people prefer to travel
with their maids wherever they go and I like that
but not when I am at my in-laws place. I like to
take care of my kids myself plus there are many
of us now so I no longer do all the work by
myself. The twins are sleeping with all the other
boys excluding kamo who's sleeping with Mah.
I get in bed and sigh. My body is so tired and
my feet are killing me. One thing that is making
me smile right now is knowing that Fanele has
already made his way to Ophongolo to find out
who owns the land and but it back from them.
Mbuso and his brothers are joining him
tomorrow then we will follow after they tell us
too.
I haven't heard from my husband since they left
but I know deep down he didn't kill his twin. I
just hope busani told him the whole truth and
left nothing. I think he saw the real mbuso and
realised that he has no choice but to come clean.
Bonga left with zipho and I think they are all
together wherever they are. I know they can all
kill busani and come back like nothing
happened. I look at the time on my phone and
11:30 pm. They have been gone for long and I
hope nothing bad happened to them. I have this
urge to call him but I decide against it. He will
come home after they have talked. Scelo would
have called me if something was wrong. I close
my eyes and sleep.
My skin feels cool like the comforter has been
removed from my body. The bed dibs and cold
hands touch my feet and they go up to my legs
and touch my naked thighs. I turn my head and
the smell of fresh water and little bit of whiskey
hits my face. They were drinking. I sigh and
open my eyes. He has switched the lights on and
he is naked. I turn my body and lay on my back.
He gets between my thighs still looking at me.
My body shudders. I look at him and it's almost
as if I am looking at the old ruthless mbuso who
didn't give a fuck about anyone else. God what
did busani say to him?!. I don't want that mbuso
back. I hated him and this person looking at me
feels like it's the old him and he's scarring me.
Scars that prove he was once in an accident are
marking chest and his strong legs. I look at his
shaft and it keeps growing getting heavier
thicker and hard. Veins pop around his shaft and
his mushroom head is shining pink and leaking
of pre-cum. His chest is moving up and down
like he's controlling his breathing. I look at his
left hand that is on my thigh and his ring is
shining bright. Our eyes lock and my skin gets
covered in goose bumps. My nipples get hard
and I press my legs together to try and calm
down my clit that is throbbing.
He locks my legs together with his then he goes
up my body and his hard dick is right on my
face. I lick my lips and swallow the saliva that
has filled my mouth looking at this majestic
dick. I open my mouth and his dick slips right in
my mouth and I massage it with my tongue. He
groans. I try to move my hands so I can grip it
but he shakes his head. I rotate my tongue the
best I can in that position sucking his dick. I use
my tongue lips and little bit of my teeth then put
the tip of my tongue on that small opening on
his dick and he loves it. he quickly pulls then
moves a little lower so his dick can be between
my boobs. Oh my God he's going to titty fuck
me.
" cover my dick with them and don't close your
mouth." I do as he says.
His hands sandwich my head. I can feel his
balls just below my boobs and they feel hard
and my hands and mouth are itching to play
with them. His lower body begins to move and I
can feel the warmth wetness and hardness of his
dick between my boobs. He fucks them and my
eyes are on that pink mushroom head that is
playing peek ’a boo with me. When his dick
peeks out from my boobs it goes straight to the
warmth of my mouth. My chin and chest are wet
from my saliva cause my husband is not giving
me time to swallow it.
It is wet warm slippery and Oh I God I love it.
His groans are telling me that he's loving and
enjoying it too. His face is hard his jaws are
clenched tight like if he relaxes then he will
come. It's not every time that I see the look on
my husbands face when he comes and tonight I
want too. I don't move my eyes away from him
as his starring at me. I remove my right hand
move my left hand so it can grab both boobs and
he lifts his hand a little. I think he think my hand
might be tired. I move my left hand to under his
things and grab hold of his balls and play with
that heavy sack. He curses and close his eyes. I
know they are sensitive so I gently play with
them and they get harder and harder and I can
feel that one thick vein getting hard and I know
he's near. My clit is screaming at me wanting
his fingers his dick and I am soaking wet. I can
feel the bedding wet too under me.
He quickly gets of off and I'm about to ask him
what's wrong but he pulls me to the edge of the
bed and lays me on my back with my head
hanging. What is he going to do now?.
" I'm going to deep throat fuck you. Breath
through your nose and relax love. Tell me if you
want to gag or if I’m going too deep. I promise I
will be gentle love." Ok my husband is still
here. I nod but I am scared cause we have never
done this.
" How is that thing going to fit down my
throat?." he chuckles.
" The same way it always does when you blow
me but the difference right now is that we are
doing it the other way around. It's going to be
like how you blow me but I will be the only one
doing the work. You just relax love and don't
forget to breath through your nose." I nod.
I take a deep breath and open my mouth. He
comes in view and I see the sack that is keeping
my children safe. I move a little then swallow
them. They smell fresh like water. The word yes
escapes his lips. He palms my boobs then I feel
his hot mouth nipples and I moan. I try to fit
both of them but he pulls them out.
" Open " he says.
He slips past my lips in my mouth and down my
throat. I moan telling him to go a little deeper
and he does and stops when he hits my gag
reflex. My ears are ringing because the only
thing I can feel hear and smell is him in my
mouth. He pulls out then pushes in gently
cursing and fuck this feels so good. When I
breath in through my nose he thrusts in and my
whole body is vibrating. He is so gentle and he
fills my whole mouth and throat. When I
swallow I can feel his dick head and he curses
every time. The way he moves in me has gotten
my body shaking hard begging me for release. I
keep squeezing my thighs trying to stop my clit
throbbing but it is threatening to kill me if I
don't give it what it wants.
I move my hands between my thighs and spread
my legs and cool air hits me. I moan but a
mmmmm sound is the one that sounds. I touch
I'm about to touch my clit when his hands grab
mine. When he does that his dick pushes bag in
and he groans. The his warm seed goes down
my throat. He trusts in and out a little harder and
more cum fill my throat sliding down to my
stomach.
I try to get my hands off him but he's grabbing
them tight. He keeps thrusting until he stops
then pulls out. He moves away helps me to get
up then he gets me on all fours. My head and
chest are on the bed and my ass is up in the air. I
expect him to just thrust in but instead I feel two
very hot stings on my ass and I wince grab the
sheets hard and hide my face on the bed so I
won't make a sound. Tears threaten to fall.
He is standing behind me and his legs touch the
bag of my thighs. He pushes my back down
making me arch more then he trusts in hard and
rough. Fuck! I bite my lip. He fucks me hard
and rough. He fucken tears my pussy apart and
this time tears cloud my eyes and they fall. I
know he is angry at his mother and brother but
taking all that anger on me is not fair. This right
now with me is mbuso not my loving husband.
Maybe this will let him release his anger and I
will get my husband back.
My husband hasn't touched me like this in years
and now I wonder what else did busani say that
made this old mbuso to be back. At this point I
just want him to be done so he can let me be.
My clit even stopped throbbing.
" move in the middle and lay flat. Don't move."
I nod. I make sure I hide my face from him.
He pulls out and moves with me. I feel his
hands spreading my ass cheeks then his thumb
rubs my anus ring and I freeze. He moves it
away then his dick pushes inside my pussy. I'm
still wet that's why he slides in easier but I
wonder if he notices that I am not wet like every
time we make love. Oh I forget I'm getting
fucked tonight. He pulls out then thrust in again
hard and I moan cause he hit my g-spot.
His whole body covers mine and I feel his
whole body weight on me. When he trusts in I
can feel he is not holding back and he fucks me
not giving a fuck. I relax my body and let him
have all of me and he takes it fucking me hard.
His mouth covers my left ear and he plunges his
tongue inside and I moan then he spills his seed
in me groaning and holding me tight.
" Don't you ever!. Ever run after another man.
Whether they are brothers or not especially
when I'm there. Do you understand me love?."
what?.
My whole body freezes. I think my world stops.
I don't understand what he's saying. He pulls out
still kneeling on the bed. I slowly turn move my
feet away from him then sit on the bed facing
him.
" what are you talking about?."
" I'm talking about that time you ran after
busani."
" what? Are you serious right now?. "
" I am. don't ever do it again."
" Why didn't you tell me when we were both
here earlier before you left mbuso?." I am so
hurt right now.
" I am telling you now."
" At 3am when you come home and smelling of
alcohol?."
" I didn't come home at 3 am. I was here before
you went to bed."
" And you waited for me to fall asleep then
come and punish me with sex for running after
your brother?. I run after him cause I wanted
him to tell you the truth before you found out. I
wanted him to come and talk to you first and tell
you his side of the story. I am sorry for running
after him like that and make it look like I'm
disrespecting you in some way. I'm sorry mbuso
for trying to fix this family and making sure that
there's peace so everything can go well. I'm
sorry for trying to talk to your brother so he
won't do something that he will regret that you
will regret too because I know it will hurt you
more than anything to hurt the person who looks
like you." Tears continue to stream down my
face.
" Love...."
" No stop!. You are taking out your anger and
frustrations on me. on my body and I let you.
The person who has sacrificed the most in this
family mbuso! Me?. I fucken lost a child for
this damn family and not once did you hear me
blaming anyone or even complaining. I do what
is expected from me and I try to keep it together
but you come and you fuck me like that because
I ran after your brother and you're mad at that?.
What do you want from me that I haven't
already given it to you? Please tell me cause I
don't know!." I wipe my tears.
" Love please calm down...."
" Don't tell me to come down mbuso!. The first
time we were suppose to connect and be one
after the things we have went through the last
weeks you choose to make love to me like this?.
"
" I'm sorry MakaSboniso please..."
" Yeah I'm sorry too."
I walk to the bathroom and get in the shower. I
try to stop myself from crying but I can't. The
door opens he tries to get in.
" Don't you dare touch me! Get out! Get out!."
he doesn’t close the door but instead stands
there watching me. Hands covering his face.
I pull myself together then step out of the
shower. I dry myself then wear my clothes. I
don't even moisturize because I want to be as far
away from his as possible. I look at the time it's
4:30am. I might as well go cook breakfast
before I stay here and say something I will
regret. My eyes are red and so is my whole face.
One look at me and they are going to notice that
I was crying.
" Luh I'm sorry please talk to me. I'm sorry love.
I don't know what I was thinking." He's
blocking me from the door.
" please move. I want to begin preparing
breakfast."
" please mama sekhaya ngiyakucenga. ( please
my wife I'm begging you.) " why does he look
scared?.
" Mbuso move!." He looks at me shocked and
the steps away.
I open the door then walk out. I head straight to
the kitchen and I'm glad no one is there. I brew
coffee cause they are going to need it since they
were drunk. I take pout the pots and begin to
make everything that is breakfast. From savoury
to sweet. By 7:00 am I'm almost done.
The first to walk in is mbuso's birth mother.
She's walking around wearing her Gucci sleep
wear looking like a housewife who's made has
prepared food for her. She greets I greet her
back then mind my business. The woman have
showered excluding The Queen of London. The
men soon follow including my husband. He
comes and kisses my cheek the sits down. I
plate his food and pour him coffee. He thanks
me.
I take the other food and take it to the living
room where the kids will be eating their
breakfast. They soon follow and sit on the table.
I try to feed the twins but the are busy running
around. Melusi and kamo are running after them
feeding them. I give up and go back to the
kitchen.
I notice that no one is talking. Everyone is
eating silently like someone has died. I guess
they are nursing their hangovers. Someone
knocks on the door and they get in. It's Sbu. and
he greets everyone then sits down. I take a plate
to him and he thanks me and begins to dish. I
look at mbuso's plate and he hasn't eaten
anything. I go to the sink and wash the pots I
was using.
" Luh?." my mother in-law calls me. I take a
deep breath then turn. All eyes are on me. " Are
you not joining us for breakfast?."
" I have already eaten Ma."
" Are you okay?." She asks me but she's looking
at mbuso.
" I am fine ma. I'm just having one of those
days."
" You never have one of those days." sims says.
" There's a first time for everything sims."
" She said she's fine. Why are you worried like
someone has died. Geez!."
" mother please!." busani says.
" You don't know luh that's why you would say
that!." my mother in-law says.
" So what? We heard them fighting more like
her screaming at my son. All couples fight
what's the big deal? She'll be fine." she say in a
bored tone and bites her apple. So they heard
me. That's why they are so silent.
" Owami this is my wife's house. You will stop
talking to her or anyone else in this house in that
way. You will respect everyone in this and that
includes my daughter luh. You will stop
behaving like this is your house and looking
down at people. If you can't stand being around
all of us then there's the door you are free to
leave. No one will stop you. If I ever that foul
mouth of yours speaking nonsense on everyone
you will know me. You will not come down in
the kicthen wearing that in front of everyone
you will do that in your own house. Not here.
Get up and go to your bedroom and change."
She looks at my father in-law shocked then he
face gets filled with annoyance. She gets up and
with her head held high and leaves. I wipe my
hands and take off the kitchen apron I was
wearing.
" Zipho can we talk?." he quickly gets up like he
was expecting it. We walk out of the kitchen
and go outside.
" I'm sorry" he says.
" Umshado unjena zipho. ( That's how married
life is.)
" It feels like my parents are fighting and I hate
that."
" I hate it too. Can you borrow me your car. I
want to go somewhere." he looks afraid. " I'm
not leaving zipho and if I was I was never going
to leave my kids behind. I'll be back."
" Ok I'll be back."
" Don't tell anyone please zipho."
" I won't." he walks back to the house.
I know mbuso won't let him out of that house. I
walk and check if there's any car that has a key
in and there's none. Fuck. I walk around and see
my father in-laws Ford Ranger. I pull the door
and it opens. I get in and check the glove
compartment for a spare key but there's none. I
remember mbuso likes to keep his under the
seat. I put my hand under the seat and fish. I
find it. I quickly start the Engine reverse then
drive out and I see zipho and them coming out.
I swear if anyone one of them follows me I'll
run this car straight to them. I know they are
going to use the tracker to find me. I just want
time alone to think and calm down. Never did I
think this time in our marriage my husband
would go back to his old self after he's promised
me and shown me that he is not that person
anymore. I drive to the beach but the weather is
slowly changing. It looks like it's going to rain
hard.
How is everything going to go well if we keep
fighting like this?. I try to be strong for my
family protect them from being hurt and also
trying to make sure that they don't kill each
other. What will happen if bonga and zipho find
out that their aunt wants to frame them for their
mother's death?. What will my father in-law do
if bonga kills his aunt?. What will mbuso do if
they kill birth mother or his mother?. What will
happen to this family and them cause this whole
thing can ruin this family and break it apart
forever?.
I park the car then get out. I take out my shoes
and walk barefoot to the beach. I love how the
sand feels on my feet. I walk then sit down and
listen to the waves of the ocean. The morning
breeze feels so good. I take off my head wrap
and feel the air on my head. I close my eyes and
just let the air sounds and waves fill me. Tears
stream down on my face and I just let it be.
" I didn't know I was carrying you and I wish I
did. Maybe I.... I'm sorry you had to leave us
like that. You sacrificed your life for your father
to be here for me and your brothers and I thank
you. Every time I picture you I see myself I
don't know why but I think deep down you were
my little girl. I know someday we will meet
again and I am looking forward to that day but I
want you to know that I love you so much
Noluthando Gumude and I will never forget
you. Please watch over us my little angel. We
love you. " I put my hand on my stomach and
cry.
I feel him and pulling me to his chest and I cry.
The rain falls on us
" I am sorry for hurting you and not thinking
about you at all. I was selfish luh and thinking
about what I'm feeling. It hurts to see you crying
like this because of me. I wish I can take all the
hurt you are feeling and all the shit I said. I am
nothing without you luh you know that I'll be
worthless. I know the sacrifices you have made
for this family and they are not in vain. We all
know that. It wasn't my accident that brought
my family together but you. You encouraged me
to keep searching and not giving up even when I
didn't want to but I knew that you won't let me
give up and because I didn't want to disappoint
you but yet I did and I am sorry. You are the last
person I would ever want to hurt on this earth
ever and yet you are the one I hurt the most with
my actions and stupid decisions. I'm sorry I took
what you did the wrong way. I hope you will
forgive me."
We are soaking wet and sitting on sand.
" I am your wife mbuso. You talk to me and tell
me what is bothering you. You don't bottle
things up then take out your anger and
frustrations on me. You promised me that old
mbuso is gone but then you came with him in
our bedroom. I love doing things with you you
know that but I don't want you to scare me and
take me back to that time we first wet. I hate
that mbuso and I never ever want to see him
around me and our kids. When you still feel
frustrated even after we have talked you go to
the gym and take it out there then come back
and fuck me. "
" I won't ever do it again love I promise you."
" You fucked me and wouldn't let me come.
You didn't even kiss me."
" I am so ashamed of my actions. Please forgive
me?."
" I forgive you." he sighs and hugs me tight.
" Lets go home."
" oh yes."
" I apologized to all of them. Sims wanted to kill
me when she saw you left and well Lesego told
me to watch my back." I laugh.
" You deserve it."
" I love you."
" Yeah yeah. Help me up."
We get up and my clothes feel heavy. The beach
is empty and there are no people around. I smile
and look at me.
" Are there other people in that car?." he looks
back.
" yeah. Your brother and sbu."
" I know what you must do for me to forgive
you."
" Anything love but can we talk in the car?. It's
raining."
" No.'
" what?."
" Take off all your clothes and run to the sea and
I'll forgive you."
" ah love? It's cold."
" It's either that or no sex for you for a month.
The water is warm but hey it's your decision."
He quickly takes off his clothes then looks at
me. I laugh then he runs to the ocean naked. I
put is clothes down take off mine then run to the
ocean with him and yes the water is warm.
" Ah baby you're trying to kill me. I can't
believe you let them see you naked love." he
says when I reach him.
" They'll be fine and if they go blind then that’s
on then."
I wrap my legs around his waist and his hands
grab my ass.
" I love only you mbuso. No one else."
" I love you more baby."
He gives me the kisses he denied me earlier. We
kiss until life guards tell us to come out of the
water. We do and my husband hides my
nakedness with his body and they give us
to blankets to cover ourselves and I am glad
cause I know my brother is probably mad. We
pick up our clothes and walk to the car laughing.
Coming here did me good and I'm glad I did.
CHAPTER 89
UMSHADO.
CHAPTER 89
MBUSO.
I promised my wife that I won't her but last
night is exactly what I did. I let what my twin
brother told me get in my head and I took it
out on my wife when I really wanted to beat
the shit out of Busani. I can't believe my
birth mother is not the person she's pretend
to be around everyone. I had thought that
maybe the years and the therapy she
received might have made her to realise
that it's okay to let somethings go but that
doesn't mean she should forget what was
done to her.
When I found out that she was married and
has a daughter I was happy that she did
find love and was able to trust again but
seeing her with my father cheating on her
husband and lying to my dad and everyone
else was what got to me but I pretended to
be in the dark like everyone else then I find
out from my wife and twin brother that
indeed she is planning on killing my mother
and wants to frame my brothers for that is
what gets to me. It gets me so fucken mad I
wanted to shoot him and her between their
eyes while watching me.
When we got in the car we drove to
Durban. I took him to my office building
showed him around then took him to my
house. We got there I showed him my
home our wedding pictures and the
collages of my whole family. He was happy
and said one day he wants to have a family
of his own. We went to the bar and started
drinking. I wanted him to tell me on his own
what they are planning but seeing that he
wasn't going to talk Scelo took out his gun
and put it on the table.
I watched him freeze and he looked
between the two of us and I think he figured
it out that we might know something and he
started talking. I have seen men terrified
when seeing a gun but what I realised that
busani is nothing like me. We might look
the same not talk the same but maybe
almost walk the same way too but he is way
too soft and he needs to toughen up.
Busani told me that my uncle has always
known about my existence. His mother told
him at my wife's parents house. My uncle's
plan was to kidnap my mother and in her
space my birth mother would come and
take her place like how my mother did. My
uncle had someone following my mother
recording and learning everything about her
so when they kidnap my mother and
replace her with owami dad won't notice a
thing. I asked him who is it that they sent to
spy on my mom and he said he doesn't
know the person. He said my mother told
him that my uncle panicked when we
started looking for his family. That is when
he knew that they have to be fast but then
they had a problem when they couldn't find
my mother. That was when I sent her to
sbu's farm where she lived for three years.
The person who was following my mother
lost her the day luh was kidnapped.
He said they panicked and didn't know what
to do but my uncle promised owami that he
won't stop looking for her and keeping an
eye on us. I can't believe I didn't know that
there was someone watching us the whole
entire time. Scelo and I were so shocked.
Busani swore that he didn't have a hand in
any of those things and he was just
shocked like us. He did confess that he
wanted my mother dead cause he felt like
he took his life and family away from him
but he changed his mind after he talked to
her and when she advised him that he
finally has a chance to be with his family
and he shouldn't let owami's anger cloud
his judgement and make a decision he will
regret. I believed him but I don't trust him.
I told him that he will not tell owami that he
told me. If she can try to frame two innocent
people then what can she do to someone
who betrayed her even if it's her own us. I
don't trust my birth mother and i definitely
don't trust fanele. My wife did ask him why
he didn't try to find me and his sister and he
just said he had too much on his plate. I
can't believe I felt sorry for this mother
fucker when luh told me about how he
struggled raising boys alone without any
help until he found a nanny who later
became his wife.
I was prepared to do something for him to
say thank you for taking care of my mom
and brother before I found out what a liar he
is. I can't stand to be around them but I will
smile and pretend until the right moment
comes. They will know who I am. No one
messes with my family. We later drove back
to Pietermaritzburg and we drank again.
The more I kept hearing the words come
out of busani's mouth it's the more I got
angry and I wanted to take out my
frustration and I did. On my wife and I hurt
her in the process. Seeing her on the beach
and crying. It fucken hurt like hell and I
couldn't imagine what she was feeling at
that moment until I sat down next to her and
heard her talking to our daughter. Fuck!. I
felt like the world's worst husband. I know
she said she forgives me but I've been
watching her ever since we came back and
I know she's still hurt. When I told her what
busani said she was shocked too and said
Fanele is a scum. My wife hates fanele and
I don't blame her.
It's been four days we have been here and
all the grandkids of The Zikalala's are here
including our cousins mbuyiselo and his
brothers. Well Fanele managed to go to the
municipal and found out that the land was
brought by another family and he managed
to find them and they wanted 2 million
rands to sell the land back and we had to
cough out 200k each including my mother
fanele and owami. Luh and I paid 1.2
million for all my brothers and both my
mothers then Fanele and his kids paid the
800k. However I told all of them that luh
and I will not be part of building the house
and they agreed and Bonga designed the
house and we got scelo's company to do
the construction hiring the local people. I
didn't want my wife to put in her money
because this was supposed to be done by
us and she just said she's doing it for me
and our kids and she wasn't asking.
Scelo assured us that they will try to build it
in less than a month or two. That's how long
he needs. Tomorrow is the day I am
dreading. We are going to where it all
began and I am freaking out because I don't
know what's going to happen. All I know is I
need luh by my side. She has to be there
because the kids too have to get in too and
I know it's going to be a very emotional day
for both my mothers.
" Bro you have been sitting here for what
feels like hours and your mind seems like
it's far away." busani says taking a seat
next to me.
" Just enjoying the nature."
" Yeah it is a beautiful lodge. Are you ready
for tomorrow?."
" I am dreading it but I also can't wait for it
to happen. I don't want what happened
between our mother's happen to us or my
children or yours even."
" I will never do that to you."
" I don't know that bro. Can you honestly tell
me that you don't wish it was me who left
with our birth mother and you stayed with
my mother?."
" Sometimes when I look at the life you
have I do become envious. I would think
what if all of this was mine you know?. You
have this perfect life your wife and your
kids. You have it all together man and I
have nothing."
" I thought as much but did you ever think
that maybe it wasn't the right time for you to
have what I have?. Maybe when the truth
has come to light then all you wish for and
want to have will happen?."
" I suppose."
" Luh and I weren't give this perfect life we
have as you say. We worked hard on it bro
and honestly she did more work than me. I
gave my wife a very hard time when we met
for things she didn't do or had any control
over. She was patient with me and forgave
me even when she didn't have to. The day
we decided to end things. I didn't want that
but I had to so she can heal and try to
forgive me but that day was one of the
worst days of my life. When she left with
her dad and brother I felt my heart literally
breaking and I was mess."
I take a deep breath and close my eyes.
" I had to work on myself and the anger I
had that I was taking out on her. I had to
prove to her that I was worthy of her love.
That I am a man she can love and spent
the rest of her life with. When she was
kidnapped and shot pregnant with my kids I
knew that should she die I was going to kill
myself too because I will not live on this
earth without her. I try everyday to be the
man she can be proud of and not be afraid
to say mbuso is husband. She's my
everything. The sun rises and sets on her. I
will kill anyone who threatens her
happiness or dares to do anything bad to
her and my kids. I have killed many men
and woman who dared to think they can
take luh away from me and I am not sorry. I
will do it over and over again to make sure
that she is safe in this world. I know she will
do the same for me too. Luh is more than
my soulmate. If you dare hurt her and my
kids brother. I will kill you and mourn for
you."
" I know that. I have seen how you are with
her and I hope one day I will find someone
who'll be my reason for breathing. I promise
you that I will protect your family and my
brother's family with my life. I swear mbuso
there are no more secrets between us."
" I hope you mean what you say. What
about Alice? Isn't she the one?." he looks
surprised.
" What? You know about her?."
" Yeah I do. I know allot of things."
" But how?."
" when it comes to my family I have to know
everything but what fanele and owami did I
didn't see or suspect it."
" Who are you really mbuso?."
" Your twin brother. Tell me about Alice?."
" She's someone who is in my life...... I
guess."
" What does that mean?." I look at him and
he heaves a deep sigh.
" I mean I'm not sure about her. There's
something missing in my life and I don't
know what it is. Maybe tomorrow after we
come back from the river something will
change."
" Are you sure you don't know what is
missing in your life?."
" I'm sure."
" I thought you said there are no more
secretes between us bro."
" yes there aren't any."
" Don't lie to me busani. More importantly
don't lie to yourself brother. You and I know
what is missing."
" I don't know what you're talking about."
" Really?. I thought you are gay or are you
bisexual since Alice is also in your life?." he
stands up and looks at me shocked scared
then ashamed.
" You had no right to go digging in my
business mbuso!."
" Sit down busani. We are having a
conversation and not fighting. Sit down!."
He stands for few more minutes then sits.
" How....why....how did you know?." he
covers his face
" No one knows brother. Only you and I
know. Why are you ashamed of who you
are?."
" Man you wouldn't understand. Not
everyone understands who we are and
people like me get labelled judged and
attacked. Being a criminal lawyer
representing people who kill people like me
has made it very hard to come out."
" So you are just gay?."
" I'm bisexual. I like men and women."
" does Alice know?."
" She knows but she wants me to be with
her only and I can't. I have tried but I fail.
How did you know?."
" I first saw how you looked at my wife’s
brother and I thought my mind was playing
tricks on me so I hacked your phone and
laptop and found a picture of you with
another man in a very intimate position."
" Fuck!." I chuckle.
" You know luh's doctor was a gay men.
He's the one that kidnapped luh for
someone else and we have Celeste. She's
one of the guys who loves women. We are
your family and you shouldn't be afraid to
be who you are around us or even be
ashamed. We don't judge brother. I accept
you as you are and I want you to be happy.
It doesn't matter with whom you're happy
with. As long as you're happy."
" I didn't know I needed to hear that. Thank
you. I feel like something has been lifted off
my shoulders."
" So no one knows besides me and Alice?."
" No one. Are you going to tell them?."
" That is not mine to share with anyone....
even luh." we both chuckle and he shakes
his head. " ok fine I'll tell luh only if she asks
me and don't worry. She won't tell anyone I
swear. You will tell them when you feel like
it and if you want. If you don't it's fine also.
It will be our little secret."
" Thank bro. Can I ask you something
though or rather share something."
" That sounds serious."
" Maybe I don't know. Your best friend sbu."
I think I know where this is going.
" What about him?."
" You have seen how he looks at luh
right?."
" Sbu has been my best friend since
university and he's my brother. We have
fucked and shared women in the past
before luh came in the picture. We have
always liked certain types of women and
none of them have ever been anything
close to luh. I knew that when he sees her
he's going to fall for her too and he did. We
both know that he loves her even though
we have never said it out loud. Had luh
been his too I also would have fallen for
her. I trust him and I know he will never
cross that line because that will be the end
of our brotherhood and I will have to kill
him."
" I understand. Your wife has that thing that
makes a man look at her twice. I don't know
what it is but she just has it."
" I know and lucky me. She's all mine and I
am hers!."
" You lucky son of bitch!." We look at each
other then laugh
" You just called your mom a bitch!."
" Why do you always say that. She's your
mom too."
" She was my birth mother up until I found
that she wants to frame my brothers. To me
she's just owami."
" Are you going to kill her?."
" Are you sure you want to know that?."
" I have chosen my side mbuso. I stand with
you and my brothers but that doesn't mean
I want my mother dead."
" I know bro and I won't kill her. Unless if
she something to any of you. It will hurt me
but I will do it. I will wait for my judgement
day when God judges me for killing her.
What will you do if I kill her?."
" I don't know but I will prevent that from
happening if it ever comes to that. I don't
want to lose either of you."
" Fair enough. I'm going to see my wife and
beg for forgiveness again."
" But you guys look okay now?."
" I know we are but I also know that she's
still hurt and I am hungry. Lets go."
We booked the whole lodge. Luh wanted
the kids to see the animals and experience
another type of nature since we live close to
the sea and we take them there often. We
walk inside and lunch is being served. This
time I insisted that the nannies come cause
I want my wife to have more time to herself
and she has been pampering herself going
to the spa with sbani lumka and both our
mothers. Sims and lesego are coming on
the weekend because the kids can't be
absent at school.
They are all sited my kids are eating not
paying any attention to me but my wife is
not there. I go to our room open the door
and find her laying on the chair. I don’t
know if she's asleep or not. Even though it
safe no animal or snakes can come in and
bite her but that doesn't make me worry
less. I walk to her and shake her lightly.
" Love? baby?. wake up." she sleeping. I
pick her up and lay her on the bed. I close
the balcony doors and switch the air con
on. I grab the door handle preparing to
leave when she calls me.
" Boo?." I smile. I walk to the bed and sit
next to her. She looks at me and smiles.
" Looks like someone had a good nap." I
brush her cheek.
" I had a lovely day. Thank you."
" You needed this time for yourself although
I think it's not enough."
" I got to relax these last few days and I
needed it. It's more than enough baby."
" I'm hungry. Let's go and have lunch."
" Why don't we have it in here and maybe
we can have desert after and give me all
those orgasms you denied me." My dick
jumps up. I'm out of the dog house. She
bites her lip.
" Are you really okay?." she entwines our
hands together.
" I wasn't but now I really am."
" I'm sorry I hurt you. I won't behave that
way ever again."
" I know. I forgive you. Touch me." who am I
to deny my wife?. I separate her legs with
my hands and the dress rises up and
reveals her creamy legs. I push it up to her
stomach.
" Why don't we start with desert first.....then
later eat." she licks her pink lips. " Lets take
this off."
I help her remove her underwear then
separate her legs. I brush her clit with my
thumb looking at her and she closes her
eyes. I plunge my finger in her pull it and it
comes out wet. I put it in my mouth and she
tastes great. I plunge in two more fingers
and finger fuck her with my thumb rubbing
her clit. I lay down next to her add another
finger and making them three and she
moans. I cover her mouth with mine and
plunge my tongue down her throat kissing
that damn mouth I love so much. I pick up
my pace and move my hand fast in and out
of her until her legs begin shaking and I
know she is near.
She puts her hand on top of mine and
urges mine to move more faster then
someone knocks on the damn door. Fuck!. I
ignore them at first but the person keeps
knocking. Luh tries to close her legs but I
put my leg on top of her left leg and push
the other one out more and plunge in again
and she throes her head back
" WHAT!." her legs waist moves
uncontrollably and I close her mouth again
as she screams and moans in my mouth.
" Uhm bhuti mbuso ugogo is here. She
wants to see you now....." sbani says.
Couldn't gogo come an hour later! Fuck
me!. I don't stop plunging in an out of luh
until she comes down from her high.
"......bhuti mbuso?." I continue to kiss luh
until she pushes my face away.
" We are coming sbani." she says and
giggles.
" ohk." I hear footsteps walking away from
our door.
" Let's go." I say and pull my fingers out and
they are damn wet. I lick the clean then get
up. " stay there I'm coming."
" Come on. We have five minutes before
she comes in here herself." she says going
down on her knees on the floor.
" love it's okay."
I pull her up and she takes her dress of and
we walk to the shower outside.
" love please!." luh wants to kill me.
" It won't take long. I don't want my husband
to be walking around with his dick hard
while his wife is here. Come." she takes off
my top and jeans. I step out of them and
walk in shower with her.
She opens the faucet and the cool water
hits our skin. I pick her up and she wraps
her legs around my waist. I grab those ass
cheeks separate them then move her up
and thrust into her hard. I missed this. I
move her body to the wall pin her there and
fuck her brains out. I feel like I'm not fucking
her right. I walk us out of the shower into
the room.
" Hold your legs love and give me that VW
shape." that's her favourite position. She
does it. I put my hands on her back thighs
push them more on the floor then thrust in. I
curse and she calls my name.
I would love to make love with her but we
don't have time. I thrust in deep hard then
fuck her hard. I watch her as her body goes
soft more wet letting me in her to possess
her body and I do. I dominate her. I watch
her boobs bounce up and down the way
she bites her lips and her back arching from
the floor. I move my hand to her tight ring
and move my thumb around it and her
pussy muscles squeeze my dick.
Her face is full off euphoria. She's enjoying
me I am enjoying her and we are one. The
more I rub on her anus ring the more her
pussy contracts. I move her hands from her
feet and lay on her chest. I put her legs
over my chest and change the pace. I give
her nice slow and deep thrusts. Her eyes
open and they connect with mine.
I wrap her body with my arms and pull her
to my chest. I continue to hit her g-spot and
I feel her orgasm coming. " My soul mate."
Her body gives in and she shakes like she's
vibrating. I thrust in long and hard and spill
my seed in her and let her scream my
name out. Music to my ears.
Three rounds later that's when we are
walking out of out room. Fresh sated and
happy.
" boo?."
" yes love." she stops walking and looks at
me.
" Are we ever going to do it?."
" do what?." she blushes and looks away. I
chuckle and make her look at me.
" What do you want us to do that is making
you blush like virgin?."
" ......it." huh?
" What is it love?. Tell me."
" are we ever going to have...anal sex?."
" what?."
" ssshhhhh haw!." oh my God!
" you want us to do that?."
" yeah...I am curious."
" no!."
" what? Why?."
" because I said so."
" but I want to do it or at least try. I'm sure
you have done it before."
" what brought this thought in your head
love?."
" Well I like it when you touch me there and
so I thought..."
" Love a finger is different than my dick in
there."
" I know but you'll be gentle. Why don't you
want to do it with me?." fuck me she's not
going to let this go!.
" I have never done to anyone okay. So I
don't know how it will be. I don't want to tear
you apart."
" You'll be gentle though."
" love that thing is not meant for my thing to
go in there okay?."
" Your thing too is not meant to get and
come in my mouth too but still we do it."
" cause we love it and enjoy it."
" maybe we'll love and enjoy it too. I'm
curious mbuso. Can we at least try."
" why is so important to you?."
" It isn't I just want to experience it too that's
all.'' Look the thought of doing it excites me
but it scares me too. I know it will be
amazing doing it with you." she too wants to
experience it. what are these fools doing to
their women?.
" ok fine. We will do it once and never
again."
" OH thank you!. I can't wait." she gives me
a kiss. She really wants it.
" Luh I hope you don't discuss our sex life
with your sisters."
" Oh I could never. I don't want them to look
at you some type of way. Hell no!." she
says and leaves me like that.

CHAPTER 90
UMSHADO.
CHAPTER 90
LUNGI.
My husband might think that I'm playing and
not being serious but I actually am. I am
curious about it and I really want to do it
and I am happy that he has agreed to do it.
I know he's going to make it worth it for me.
I have been reading about it and hearing
from some of the girls that they have done it
made me want to do it too.
" Finally you guys decided to join us. We
have been waiting for you." bonga says.
" where is gogo xulu?." I ask bonga.
" she's at her house."
" so we must drive there?." my husband
asks
" yes. Lets go."
" I'll see you later when you come back."
" you are coming with us. She said you
must be there too." sbani says.
We leave the Lodge and drive for 20
kilometres to gogo xulu house. The
construction of the Zikalala house is coming
along very good. They really are working
hard and trying to make sure that they are
working as fast as possible.
We get out of the car and there are many
people in gogo's house. I don't know if they
are here to consult or what. Sbani tells us to
wait outside while she goes to gogo. I look
at my husband at his brother and they are
too quiet. I hope my husband forgave his
brother when he finally told him the truth
and I hope tomorrow will be the new
beginning for all of us because this family
really needs it.
" Bhuti mbuso. Bhuti busani nawe sisi lungi
gogo says to follow me then bonga and will
follow after." she gives bonga a seat then
we follow her she instructs us to take off our
shoes and then we get inside the hut.
" She will be with you shortly."
We sit in silence and busani looks out of
place. We all do look out of place cause we
have never went for a consultation to
anyone before. I wonder what is gogo going
to say when she gets here. I take mbuso's
hand and I feel his body relaxing a bit.
Gogo comes in followed by sbani and
another young man. She's wearing
traditional healer clothes with brown and
black leopard print colours and a yellow
doek on her head. Sbani has a yellow
blanket that is covering her shoulders and
so is the young man. They put gogo in the
middle then light candles and pour water on
the silver bowl then she lights seven sticks
of matches then throws them on the bowl.
They begin to pray we close our eyes and
listen and say amen when they are done.
Gogo looks so different and the aura
around her is the one of old age wisdom.
" Mnguni and your wife. You two did the
nasty and now you're here but it's okay let
us continue. Tomorrow we are finally doing
what your great grandmother is expecting
from you and we are going to the river
where it all began. I have talked to your
mothers and we are going to start with them
then it will be you mbuso who's going to be
cleansed after. I will be in the river with you
but uSipho here will be the one who will be
washing your whole body since you are a
man and I cannot touch you. After it will be
busani's turn then your kids will come in
with you mbuso you will be the one who will
be washing the little one's when sipho
pours the water on them. You will wash one
child after another and you will pray ask for
everything you wish they would have."
My husband agrees with gogo but where do
I fit in this whole thing. Why am I wanted.
" khanyo you also have to be there because
they want you to take the kids with you after
they come out from the river. You will cover
your children with the cloths I will provide
then you will get in the car with your
husband his brother and your children and
drive away making sure that you don't turn
your head don't look back. Do you
understand me mzukulu?."
" I understand gogo." I guess I will have to
make sure that the rear view mirror is facing
away from my eyes.
" Mbuso nawe busani. For everything to go
well for all of you. If your ancestors don't
come through and reveal themselves to you
then I am afraid that things are not going to
go well for everyone." she says shaking her
head
" What does all of that mean gogo?." my
husband asks/
" It means that kusasa when you are in the
river and you don't see a snake. Inyoka
yase manzini then I'm afraid that your
ancestors are not happy with the things that
are happening in the family but if you do
see the snake then everything will go
perfectly well for you but as I'm listening to
them and looking here I don't see anything
wrong for now." she keeps quiet for a while.
My God a snake?
" We will leave very early in the morning
before the sun rises. Mnguni you will not be
intimate with your wife and you will not drink
alcohol that goes for you too busani. The
ceremony that has to happen will happen
the next week before your father goes to
pay the damages to the Zikalala's. Khanyo I
hope all the things that they told you to buy
and do you still remember them. Do you?."
" I do gogo and I have brought everything."
" Good then."
" Busani. You seem to have allot on your
mind. Things seem to be not going well for
you and you feel like you don't know who
you are. Your twin was the only one that
was introduced to the ancestors after you
were born but they don't know you because
your mother. The woman that gave birth to
you and the Zikalala's didn't go to the
gumede's to tell them about their daughter
being pregnant. After your twin brother was
introduced to your ancerstors and he was
accepted by them some of the things that
were going to affect him went to you
because you were not introduced to them
the same may your brother was. You
sometimes feel like you don't know where
you belong or fit in so you do things to try
feel the void that you have inside of you.
You will be cleansed mzukulu and the
clarity you seek you will find. Things will
change for you and I see a very bright
future for you. Your father though must
have a ceremony for you to introduce you
to your gumede ancestors and you have to
take your rightful surname. " gogo says.
" There's someone though who's coming
and they are going to try to come between
you and your brother but she will not
succeed. This woman that is in your life is
not good. She's up to something with your
mother."
" Alice?."
" Yes her. She's will be here soon." busani
shakes his head. I wonder what is owami
up to now.
" Your mother....Your birth mother hmmmm.
It's all up to her ancestors now. They tried
to help her but she doesn't want help and
hmmmm......"
" Is something going to happen to her?."
busani asks.
" It is all up to her now. That's all I can say."
" Mangcobo. You carry the weight of all this
family. Both the Gumede's and the
Zikalala's. All of them including your blood
ancestors are with you child. You are
blessed your husband is blessed because
of you and your children too." she looks at
the bowl then at me and smiles. " Indeed
blessed. It's not everyday I see something
like this."
" thank you gogo."
" They are telling me that I must prepare
something for you luh for protection.
Yes.....I see." she says nodding.
" This is it for now. I will see all of you in the
morning. At 4am you have to be here so we
can be at the river before the sun rises. All
of you have to leave at the same time. I had
already told your mothers. You will not bath
when you come back from the river but you
can do anything after that." she looks at me
and my husband. I blush and look down. "
Do you have any questions?." The brothers
look at each other.
" Is something bad going to happen to my
wife gogo?."
" Don't worry mzukulu. No harm will come
to her now that I know." I don't like that at
all.
" Mbuso your brothers need guidance from
you. You are the eldest in both families and
many responsibilities of both families are
going to lie on you and your wife's
shoulders. You may go now and call your
brother to come in."
We get up and leave the rondavel. We walk
to bonga and he gets up and goes to the
hut too. We get in the car and sit. No one is
talking and I just want to let them be in their
thoughts. I'm just wondering why does gogo
have to prepare something that will protect
me?. What do I need protection from and
why?. Can I just get a break my God!.
We wait for almost an hour for bonga and
when he comes back he's quiet too. I
wonder what gogo said. We drive back to
the lodge and they go to different directions.
I go look for my kids and they are in the
pool with my brother and he's teaching
them how to swim.
" Look at you guys and your uncle." He
sees me and smiles.
" When did you come back?."
" just now. How are they doing?."
" They are fish."
" My kids are not fish man." My husband
says from behind me.
" They are not afraid of the water so they
are fish."
Mbuso walks infront of me and he's half
naked. He's wearing surfer shorts and I am
happy that they are not tight. My husband
looks so good. He crouches down in front of
me.
" Why don't you go and change then come
and join us."
" You want me to be half naked in front of
everyone?."
" Why would you be half naked?."
" I'll be wearing my one piece swimming
costume."
" Hell no."
" What did you think I was going to wear
then?."
" your jean shorts and a tank top love. I
won't let anyone see you naked."
" I'll wear something on top to cover myself
though?."
" No."
" I'm going to nap. You get in that pool and
swim with your kids. Tomorrow we have a
long day."
" I know love. I'm just worried about you and
what she said."
" Do you think someone in our family wants
to hurt me?."
" Yeah it could be fanele. I know I promised
you that I'm done killing people but love if I
catch anyone trying to do anything to you
then I will do what I have to do."
" I know baby but gogo said no harm will
come to me."
" I know but I wont let my guard down love
and so should you."
" Ok. I'm going to nap
Sponsored
so they are fish."
Mbuso walks infront of me and he's half
naked. He's wearing surfer shorts and I am
happy that they are not tight. My husband
looks so good. He crouches down in front of
me.
" Why don't you go and change then come
and join us."
" You want me to be half naked in front of
everyone?."
" Why would you be half naked?."
" I'll be wearing my one piece swimming
costume."
" Hell no."
" What did you think I was going to wear
then?."
" your jean shorts and a tank top love. I
won't let anyone see you naked."
" I'll wear something on top to cover myself
though?."
" No."
" I'm going to nap. You get in that pool and
swim with your kids. Tomorrow we have a
long day."
" I know love. I'm just worried about you and
what she said."
" Do you think someone in our family wants
to hurt me?."
" Yeah it could be fanele. I know I promised
you that I'm done killing people but love if I
catch anyone trying to do anything to you
then I will do what I have to do."
" I know baby but gogo said no harm will
come to me."
" I know but I wont let my guard down love
and so should you."
" Ok. I'm going to nap I am tired."
" Want me to join you?." I laugh.
" we are not having sex baby."
" But we can do other things?."
" Nope. Keep your hands to yourself."
" I can't do that. You are too damn sexy and
you know my hands are always itching to
be all over your body."
" Don't you get enough baby?."
" Hell no. Do you get enough of this?." He
takes my feet and runs it on his chest then
back up into his mouth.
" You will not do that again infront of me
and your kids. What is wrong with you
too?." My brother says and I laugh. " I
haven't forgiven both of you for what you
did."
" Sorry." we both say and laugh.
My husband gives me a very hot kiss then
jumps in the pool then busani and bonga
come in and jump in the pool too. I get up
and go to the kitchen first and make myself
a sandwich make juice and then eat it. I see
the women that work here watching the
boys in the pool. I would watch them too if I
was single. The ladies giggle and talk
amongst themselves.
Two of them decide to bring refreshments
to them. They thank them then continue
talking and teaching the kids to swim. I
giggle then go to my room and nap.
Later at night I feel hands on my face. Wet
little kisses on my face. I open my eyes and
see my son watching me. I smile and pull
him to me and tickle him. He laughs so hard
begging me to stop. He smells so good like
his dad.
" where's your dad baby?." he still laughing.
The bathroom door opens and they come
out. He was bathing them.
" You're finally awake. I asked them to save
your plate. I'm sure you're hungry."
He sits on the bed and begins to put clothes
on sboniso and my baby doesn't give his
dad a hard time.
" I'm not hungry. What time is it?."
" It's 10 pm love and these little people
have to sleep. I thought playing on the
water would tire these guys out but it didn't."
" They look sleepy and they are sleeping
with us right?."
" Yes love. That's why I took them."
I sit up and they come to me and sit on my
lap. I kiss their cheeks and they close their
eyes. I hold them until they fall asleep. We
just watch them in comfortable silence. I
love these three people very much. My
husband takes them and puts them in bed.
" Are you sure you're not hungry?."
" I am baby."
"Are you ready for tomorrow?."
" I am love."
" What happened to themba and that girl?."
" Themba is dead. Frank killed him and
gave the girl that drug that wiped her whole
memory."
" What?. How is her family going to find
her?."
" He left her outside her house."
" Ohk. I thought that maybe you're the
one...."
" Hey I promised you that I won't kill again
but I will if I have to okay?."
" Okay." We kiss then he gets in bed. The
kids are in the middle sleeping. We thread
our hands and just look at each other until I
fall asleep while he's watching me.
" wake up mzukulu. Wake up sisi."
I open my eyes and see khokho Zikalala.
She's in my bed and we are at my house in
durban.
" Gogo?." I sit up and she takes my hand to
hers.
" Are you healing?." I sigh.
" I am gogo. Everyday I am healing." she
nods and pats my hand.
" It will get better mzukulu. Trust me." I nod.
She gets up and walks aound my bedrrom.
" I want my bedroom to like yours. Decorate
it like this so whem I visit I feel like I'm at
home."
" I will gogo."
" I know you are a Gumede bride but you're
our bride too and I want to be able to visit
your home and be around great great
grandkids and their kids."
" I will do that gogo."
" When you and your husband decide to do
a ceremony of welcoming your ancestors
don't forget to also bring us. We might have
different surnames but you and mbuso bind
us together. We are here for all of you. All
we need is just for you to acknowledge us
now and then."
" Ngiyakuzwa gogo." she comes back and
looks at me again. She looks sad. " Is
everything okay gogo?."
" Not everything mzukulu. We asked that
there mustn’t be blood spilling and there
was none but the anger and secrets that
are surrounding this family is what that's
going to destroy this family."
" I know gogo. What do you want me to do?
Talk to them?."
" You talked to them and some didn't listen.
We have tried to warn them but they still
refuse to listen and now it is out of our
hands."
" Is someone going to die gogo?."
" I am going to need you to be strong and
hold this family together when the time
comes. I need you to be their pillar of
strength."
" Gogo I don't know if I can do that. Why
does every responsibility from this family be
put on my shoulders?."
" Who else besides you?."
" Uncle fanele has a wife and a daughter
gogo. Why can't they be the one's who deal
with all the responsibilities?."
" They are not selfless mzukulu. They are
not like you. They do not have your heart
and they wouldn't understand what it really
takes to be the glue that binds the family.
You are that glue and when you have been
chosen to be the one that leads no one can
dispute that no matter what they do."
I shake my head.
" You are more than just a bride mzukulu.
You are what the Gumede and Zikalala
family need to be one. They will all need
you."
" Gogo please tell me."
" Your kids won't go in the river without you.
I need you to go with them and help your
husband bath them. Whatever you see in
the river don't be scared. It won't hurt you.
We will all be there. Bring 5 rand coins for
you your husband children and your twin
brother's husband. MaXulu will give you
something to wear. After you are done I
want all of you to leave and go straight to
your house in durban. The next day you will
cook a big feast that all of you will eat. You
will come back here a week before the
ceremony to prepare everything. We are
counting on you."
" I won't let you down gogo."
" We are watching over all of you. The
Gumede's are so so proud of you. You are
now a mother to the family and not just a
bride. They call you the Matriach of this
family. Bonga and Thandiwe will be blessed
and so will Zipho and his wives." She puts
her hand on my stomach and smiles. " Be
blessed child and continue to grow the
family and don't let people come to your
family and cause chaos." Tears fall. She
gives me a very warm and she hug then
she disappears.
I open my eyes and look up. Mbuso is
holding me on his chest and his heart is
beating fast.
" Hey what's wrong?." I ask him.
" You were crying again in your sleep." I
sigh.
" It's okay baby. I was just dreaming that's
all. I am fine." I'm not fine. How can I be
when I know someone is going to die?.
" We have two more hours before we wake
up." He sleeps next to me and I fall asleep
again.
We woke up at 3 am brushed our teeth and
left with the kids still sleeping. My husband
is the one driving and busani is sitting on
the front with him. I'm in the back with the
kids and on the other car scelo is driving my
husband's mothers and bonga is going to
be driving with gogo and the others.
When we get there they get in the car and
we drive to the river which isn't scary
looking because most trees have been cut
down. Gogo and sbani are the ones who
come out of the car first and they prepare
their things. I look at the time and its 4:30
am and it is still dark. I look at my kids and
they are awake but they quiet then I see
that they are holding each other's hands.
They don't look afraid but... God I don't
know!.
The sound of the water moving has me
feeling scared because is almost deafening.
Gogo's dream keeps playing in my head
and I don't now if Ii should tell my husband
or not but I will. We have to carry this thing
between us because I won't be able to do it
alone.

CHAPTER 91

LUNGI.
Gogo Xulu sbani and sipho walk further away
like deeper to the forest and I think close
enough to the river. My husband and his brother
are quiet too. I don't know if they are worried or
they just want all of this to be over. Sbani and
sipho come back. Sipho comes to us while sbani
goes to scelo's car where the twin grannies
are. I gave all of them the five rand coins to
throw in the river and I hope they still remember
to throw it in the river before they go inside. My
husband gets out of the car and busani does too
and he tells them that when sbani and gogo are
done sbani will come to them. My brother and
bonga join them too. No one is talking they are
all just silent.
I watch sbani opening the door and she talks to
the twin grannies. They step out of the car.
Owami looks nervous and I think it's because
this place is bringing back bad memories. They
walk to where they have prepared their things
and then we hear someone crying loud and I
think it's owami. The way she's crying is making
me feel for her and you can feel her pain and the
memories she’s having being back here again.
Sbani and my mother in-law hold her and they
walk until we don't see them. My husband gets
in the car and looks at us.
" Baby? Are you okay?." I ask him.
" I don't know. Hearing my birth mother cry like
that was hard. I feel sorry for her and my
brother."
" This hard on all of us. We will get through this
baby."
" how love?." I sigh. Truth is I have no idea how
we're all going to get through this."
" We have no choice baby. We just have to be
strong for everyone." He looks at me.
" You are crying again in your sleep." He takes
my hand.
" baby...."
" Love talk to me. I know you didn't sleep after
your nightmare. What did you dream about?."
" Can we not talk about this now?."
" You'll tell me when we are back at the
lodge?."
" No. I'll tell you when we are at home."
" why that long?."
" When we leave this place we will drive back
to Durban."
" Huh?."
" I wasn't having a nightmare. I was with your
great grandmother. She told me when are done
here we must drive straight home and I must
help you with the boys because they won't go in
the river without me. I have already told lesego
and sims that we are coming. I asked the
nannies come with our bags when scelo comes
to pick them up."
" Did she say why we must leave?."
" I don't know."
" Love?."
" That's all I can say for now. The rest I'll tell
you when we get home."
" She said something bad didn't she?." I look at
our kids and they are quiet. They are worrying
me because they never stop talking.
" She did. The boys are too quiet. Do you think
something bad is going to happen?."
" Don't worry love. They are just anxious like
us."
" I hope so."
The grannies come back and they are wearing
white cloths. Bonga goes to the car they get in
and drive out.
" I guess we are next. I'll be back. I think you
should get the boys ready."
" I'll do that when we are in the river."
" Ok love."
He steps out of the car and sbani comes in.
Sipho my husband and busani leave.
MBUSO.
It's beginning to be clear outside. It's no longer
dark like how it was when we got here. The
sound of the water streaming down is almost
deafening. I have never been scared of water but
this one is making me feel uneasy. We continue
to walk until we see gogo Xulu. There fire next
to where she's kneeling and she has candles of
different colours lit. The sage is burning and
you can actually smell it. She's mixing
something in the bucket that she has. I look at
the river and I don't know how deep it is
because the water is high. She looks up and sees
us.
" Take off your clothes then you will get in the
river. Mbuso you will go first."
Sipho shields me from gogo and I begin to take
off my clothes. When I'm done he takes them
and throws them in the fire and they burn. He
instructs me to go in the river and I do. The
water is cold and it goes up to my knees. Sipho
comes in carrying the bucket and gogo comes to
and gets in the river.
" When sipho pours water on you you will pray
ask God your ancestors to protect you and your
loved ones. All that you wish to have for you
your family and everyone you hold dear. Do
you understand mzukulu?."
" I do gogo."
" If you happen to see the snake don't panic. It
will not do any harm but bring you luck and
blessings."
" Yebo gogo."
She walks around and stands behind me. She
puts her hand on my head and begins to pray
then sipho pours water on me and I wash my
head face and whole body. I ask my ancestors
God to protect my wife and kids. My whole
family and everyone who loves us and wish us
well. I ask them to bless us with kids. I ask them
to take away all the hurt my wife feels and from
anyone that wants to hurt her. I ask for
forgiveness for everything wrong thing I have
ever done and for all of that to not fall on my
children. I thank them for giving me my mother
and brother back. I ask them to unite us so we
can all be one family. I ask them to finally give
her the happiness she deserves.
I wash every inch of my body I even forget that
gogo xulu is behind me. The bucket is empty
and sipho steps out of the water and comes back
with the white cloth. Gogo stops praying takes
the cloth and tells me to lift my arms up. When I
do she wraps the cloth around me.
" get out of the river and wait there. I guess they
decided not to show themselves mzuluku but
that shouldn't worry." I do as she says.
She gets out too and begins to mix something in
the bucket that sipho filled with water. Sipho
walks to the river carrying the bucket and gogo
comes in too. She does the same thing to my
brother and sipho pours water on him until they
are done. He walks out of the river and we both
have these white cloth and it reminds me of
some Nigerian movie I saw my wife watching
only they had red cloths on them. He walks
away then after a while my wife comes with
sbani and our kids.
It's no longer dark outside but the sun hasn't
risen yet. Luh gives me sboniso and she takes
sbonelo from sbani. She walks to the river and
fills the bucket with water. She gives it to gogo
who again mixes something inside.
" Undress them then go in the river. Sbani show
them where."
We stand almost close to the edge and the water
stops just above my feet. She then tells us to put
the boys down so they can be inside the river.
When we out them down they begin to cry loud.
Gogo comes and begins to say our clan names
then prays. Both her hands are on the boys head.
Sbani pours water inside the bucket on them
then luh and I wash our kids. The boys are
crying so loud like something is being done to
them. Luh takes sboniso from me and I take his
brother.
We wash them still praying when they suddenly
stop crying. Luh and I look at each other then
we look at gogo who goes still then continues to
pray. Suddenly everything goes quiet. Even the
water doesn't make sound even though it is still
moving. I look around expecting to see
something but I don't but I know we can all feel
that something is here.
My wife gasps and I follow her eyes to look
where they are starring. Oh my god!. The are
bubbles in the water like something is there. Not
just small bubbles like big bubbles of something
big breathing under the water.
" Oh they have graced us with their presence."
Gogo says smiling. " Can you all see it?.
Blessings."
" Yes I can." Luh says. "....Oh.My.God!." all our
eyes are on what we are seeing
I have seen snakes in my life but I have never
seen a snake this thick and it is very long. The
water is clear you can actually see it. The head
is huge it looks us it might swallow all of us at
the same time. The only part we can see is the
back of it because it has exposed itself. It is just
maybe just 300m from where we are. Gogo said
if they show themselves then it means blessings
are coming and they are happy. It continues to
breath then it goes under the water and leaves.
" We are done here. You will take the kids don't
look back and leave. Khanyo you will do as you
were instructed. I will see you again. Do you
have any questions?."
" Can we change clothes gogo?." I ask her?
" You may when you have left this town. Be
well my children and mbuso take care of your
wife and remember I'm just a phone call away."
" Gogo you said you must make something for
me? for protection?.” my wife asks her.
" Oh yes. Here it is. Don't ever take it off even
when you shower or do anything. You must go
now. The sun will rise at any minute and don't
thank me." She takes something that looks like a
necklace and puts it over my head. It looks so
beautiful
We take the boys and get out of the river and
walk straight to our car. we get in and I drive
out making sure that I don't look back.

LUNGI.
Five hours later we are back home. I missed my
house and I am so glad we are back. My brother
was driving behind me the whole entire time
until we got home. My house is smelling
wonderful and that means sis nonto cooked and
I'm always happy to see her. We take the kids to
the bedroom and they fall asleep. It was a long
drive and they are tired. We all are. I drove us
home like how gogo instructed. We go to the
living room and everyone is there.
My house is like everyone's home. Whether we
are there or not they always make themselves
comfortable.
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">My house is like everyone's
home. Whether we are there or not they
always make themselves comfortable.
" I am so glad all of this over and I will
finally have my life back." Owami says. I'm
not one to not like people but owami rubs
me the wrong way.
" Which life are you talking about ma?." I
ask her.
" The life that was taken from me." she sips
her champagne.
" Hmmm."
" what do you mean hmm?." her voice rises
up
" nothing."
" I don't like how you talk to me. I'm your
mother in-law so have some respect when
you're talking to me." I'm glad I never had
her as my mother in-law cause I swear we
would have had problems between us.
" mother not now please!." busani says.
" what? You all heard how she talked to
me!."
" I'm going to bed. I don't have time for this.
Sis nonto will show you where you'll sleep.
Tomorrow we will cook and eat as a family."
I stand up.
" Love sit down please." I sit. " In this family
mother we respect each other and we don't
look down on anyone. This is my wife's
house and everyone. I mean everyone who
enters here will respect her. Luh wasn't
disrespectful to you in any way."
" Well I am your mother and she must
respect me. I demand it!."
" Please don't raise your voice. The house
is full of kids. Respect is earned not
demanded so please show us the respect
that you are so demanding of because we
have all been nothing but respectful to you
ever since we met. If you can't do that then
we will have problems."
" Mbuso your threatening your mother?."
" I don't do threats mother."
" I think you've had enough champagne.
Lets take you to bed." busani says. He gets
up owami gulps down the rest of her drink.
I get up to show her whee she'll sleep.
" I'm sorry about that luh." Busani says.
" Don't apologize busani. She just had a
long day."
" This day was suppose to be all about me.
I'm the one who was wronged here but
everyone is still kissing sebe's ass. What
about me?." she slurs.
" We don't like your attitude that's all. We
know you were wronged and we are sorry
but that doesn't give you the right to be
mean and then pretend to be this nice
person in front of some people." she stops
walking.
" Little girl what are you talking about?."
little girl?
" You know I'm right." I open the door.
Busani tries to pull her in but she pushes
his hand away. I wonder how many times
he has done. Taken his drunk ass mother
to put her to bed. It must be exhausting.
" I don't like you and I don't think you are
good for my son."
" I don't give a damn what you think about
me and I definitely know my husband
doesn't too. "
" I can easily turn him against you."
" mother stop please!." busani says.
" I would like to see you try. Your true
colours and starting to show and soon my
father in law and everyone else will see
what a mean person you are."
" You don't me little girl."
" No! you don't know me. You don't want to
mess with me but I dare you to try and you'll
be sorry."
" Luh please she's drunk. She won't
remember anything when she's sober."
" Busani stop!. Your mother is not drunk we
both know it. She's just tired of pretending.
If you want to be part of this family owami.
You will forget about this revenge you want
and we can all be a family but I'm warning
you owami. Don't mess with my family
because you will regret it."
" Look at you. You are not this meek and
stupid girl I thought you were." Her eye
twitches.
" Call me names again and I'll kick you out
of my house now!." she takes a step back
and a gives me a cold smile. She gets in
the room and shuts the door on my face. I
shake my head and walk back to the living
room.
" Is everything okay?." my husband asks.
" Yeah. Where is uMah?."
" She went straight to bed when we got
here." Bonga says.
" I'm going to bed too. I will see you
tomorrow and you too better be here early
so you can help me cook. Where is zipho?."
" He's at my house with lindo."
" Okay later guys." I hug all of them then go
to my bedroom.
I take off my dress then get in bed and sigh.
I take my phone and call my dad and invite
him over. The door opens and it's my
husband. He gets in bed too after taking his
clothes off.
" I still can't believe what we saw." he says
" It was beautiful and scary at the same
time. My skeleton was shaking."
" I'm glad It's almost over."
' I am too."
" Talk love."
I lay on his chest and tell him about the
dream but I leave some parts out like gogo
touching my stomach and blessing us
because I'm not sure what it means
although I think she blessed my womb so I
can be ale to have more children in future. I
look at him thinking he is asleep but he's
not. He seems deep in thought.
" Are we ever going to get a break?."
" We will baby. Maybe this is one last thing
we have to go through before we can all
finally breath and relax."
" I wonder who's going to die now and
how?."
" I don't want to know but I just hope it won't
tear this family apart."
" Owami is the one who's going to do that. I
don't know what to do with her."
" I won't have her and her energy around
our children. I will kick he out of my home if
she tries something."
" I just wish she wasn't like that."
" It's the revenge that's making her be that
way baby and everyday it's getting harder
and harder to be the person she's
pretending to be."
" She can' pretend forever cause sooner or
later she has to go back to her life." he
says.
" Or we can help her tell everyone about
her life."
" what do you mean love."
" lets invite your half sister and her dad and
see how she will react."
" You want to expose her?."
" Is that wrong?."
" It's not but I don't want to hurt my sister
like that."
" Ok baby but think about it." he nods.
That woman threatened me and I am not
going to let it go. She might be up to
something and I have to keep my eye on
her or else we might find ourselves in
trouble. Owami is up to something I can feel
it. One of the things I have learned from my
husband is you always have to be a step
ahead from someone or anything so you
won't have any surprises and that's what
I'm going to do to Owami. She will regret
the day she decided to threaten me.
I will not tell my husband that his mom
threatened me because I don't know what
he will do and frankly I don't want him to
look at his brother or owami even in that
manner. I just have to talk to busani and tell
him to keep his mouth shut and not mention
this to my husband.
Busani looks like he's done this a million
times. His mom gets drunk and he has to
put her in bed. It's either she quickly gets
drunk or she has a drinking problem or
maybe she just loves her alcohol. I wonder
if their sister have seen her drunk too and
behaving that way.
" Penny for your thoughts?."
" I am just thinking about this lovely
necklace I have around my neck."
" It's beautiful love. As long as it will protect
you from any harm them I'm happy."
" Don't forget to transfer money to her
account."
" I will. Thank you for everything love."
" Don't thank me baby. This is my family too
and I have to help you take care of it." He
chuckles.
" Come here." He wraps his hands around
me. I lay my head on his chest and close
my eyes.
CHAPTER 92
LUNGI.
My sisters came early in the morning and we are
in the kitchen busy cooking. This food has to be
eaten during lunch and I feel like the only
missing here is the traditional beer but it's okay
cause we will make it next time. The queen of
London is still asleep or maybe she's awake but
is afraid to face us because of her behaviour
yesterday. I want her gone in my house so it can
be just us. The way we were.
My mother in-law is in the kitchen cooking with
us but she doesn't look like her normal self. She
says she's been having stomach cramps since we
left her house in Pietermaritzburg. God I hope
she's not the one who's going to die because it
will devastate her boys and all of us. I wanted to
take her to the doctor but she refused and said
she'll be fine. I will talk to my husband I know
he will take her to the doctor himself.
I want this lunch to be perfect and for everyone
to get along. I hope Owami will behave herself
or maybe she shouldn't so everyone can see
what kind of person she really is. Speaking of
the devil she comes in still wearing her
sleepwear. I guess what my father in-law said to
her didn't really stick or she just doesn't care.
" Oh my headache. I need to have some coffee.
Where's is the coffee and is it freshly brewed?."
" Good morning to you too wami. We are fine
too."
" Yeah morning." sims rolls her eyes and lesego
just stares at her. " Where's the coffee?."
I stop peeling the potatoes take a cup of coffee
pour it and then give it to her.
" Thanks." I don't say anything. " Don't you
have maids who do this?."
" Didn't my father in-law tell you that you can't
walk around in the house wearing that?." sims
asks her.
" she was too drunk to remember." lesego
answers her.
" This is my sons house and I will walk around
wearing anything I like. He's not my husband to
tell me what I must do or wear." she's annoyed.
" Do you have a husband?." I ask her and she
chokes on her coffee. Her sister walks up to her
and pats her back. " What's wrong ma?." i ask
her again.
" Oh my coffee went down on the wrong pipe.
Let me go and bath. I have special visitors
coming today." say what now?.
" You invited people I don't know to come in
my house without talking to me first?."
" What's the big deal?. They are family and it
shouldn't matter."
" This is my house ma and next time you think
of inviting someone you will talk to me first."
" You're freaking out like I invited Mbuso's ex.
I'm going to bath and wait for them." she walks
away shaking her skinny ass.
" I don't like her." sims says.
" Why does it feel like she's here to just cause
trouble?." lesego says. I'm glad I'm not the only
one who can see her bullshit.
" She's going through allot guys. Give her
sometime."
" She's mean mah and you know it. I don't think
we are ever going to get along." I tell her. She
sighs and sits down. " Mah are you okay?."
" I think I need to go and lie down. I'm just
feeling dizzy."
" Okay we need to take you to the doctor."
" Thandi I'm okay sisi. Stop worrying. I'm going
to lie down." she walks to her bedroom. God
please don't let it be her. We still need her.
The three of us look at each other worried. I am
the most worried and scared. I don't know what
I will do if it is going to be her. The man are
outside barbecuing the meat. Maybe I should
talk to my husband so he can light the sage for
her but I'm scared of how he will react cause he
too knows that someone is going to die and he
might think it's her.
" I'll be back guys. I'm going to check on mah."
They nod. I go my bedroom Open the closet
door and take out the sage and candles. My head
and shoulders are covered so I just kneel down.
Light the candles then sage. I sprinkle the sniff
on the sage and begin to call the clan names of
the Gumede's and call on our ancestors. I ask
them to protect my mother in-law to show me
the way and chase away any bad energy around
my house.
I take the sage then go to her bedroom and open
the door. She's not sleeping but sitting on the
bed thinking. She looks bad and releases her
breath when she sees it's me. I walk around in
the bedroom with the sage then bathroom and
back again to the bedroom and put it down next
to the bed. I sit on the ned and take her hand.
" You welcomed me in this family with warm
and open arms. You loved me like your own
daughter and I knew that I had the best mother
in-law ever. Whatever happened in the past
doesn't change the fact that you are a good
woman ma and you don't have to take the abuse
that comes from your sister. Mah you have to
forgive yourself and move on. You and uBaba
have raised these wonderful man who love us
unconditionally and that should count for
something. I hate seeing you like this."
" You have a pure heart lungi and don't ever
change for anyone. I am glad to know that all
my children have found love and are happy well
expect for busani but I hope since he's moving
back home he too will find love and happiness. I
will die a happy woman because I know my
children are with the women who love them.
Thank you all for growing this family and I
know in your warm and loving hands it will
continue to grow and be blessed." I wipe my
tears.
" Mah you are not going to die. Don't talk like
that."
" Khanyo when you're time is near you can feel
it and I can feel mine. Don't cry for me my child
my time has come. All I want you to do is to be
strong for my boys. Take care of your father
khanyo he's going to need all of you. You are
the woman of this family now and I want you to
be strong and be the glue that you are. Do you
understand me khanyo?."
" Mah please! No one when they are going to
die or how. Please let me take you to the doctor
so we can see what's wrong?."
" I want to spend the time I have with my family
luh please my child." I sob. She pulls me to her
arms and I cry.
" Are you sick mah?."
" It's only stomach aches luh and they are not
that bad."
" Please mah."
" Luh look at me." I do. She wipes my tears. "
When I die I want you to make sure that
everything is okay. Thandi will seat on the
mattress and you will handle everything for me
with the help of your husband and brothers. I
don't want thandi to be stressed cause she's
pregnant. Everyone now luh look up to you and
they will need you. Promise me that you will
give me a beautiful send off?." I nod. " Shhh it
will be okay."
I shake my head no. How can she be okay when
she's telling me that she's going to die?. How do
I be okay with that?.
" Go in the bathroom and wash your face. I don't
want my son or anyone to see you like this. You
know he will kill all of us when he finds you
like this." I nod.
" I love you mama." Tears stream down her
face.
" I love you too lungile Nokukhanya MaNgcobo
Gumede." she kisses my forehead.
I get up look at her and she's laying on the bed. I
sigh and close the door. I walk to my bedroom
go to the bathroom. Take off my clothes and get
in the shower. Mbuso won't notice that I was
crying. He'll think its the water in my eyes. I
open the faucet and switch the water to hot. I sit
down on the floor and cry.
After maybe 15 minutes of crying and another
one for just sitting there I come out of the
shower and I find my husband sitting on the
toilet seat. He gets up takes the towel and dries
me. He takes my hand and we walk back to our
bedroom.
" Stand here. I'll be right back."
He goes to our closet then comes back with a
body lotion and other clothes.
" What's wrong with these clothes?."
" Nothing. I thought you might want to change."
I look at what he has and it's that dress I was
wearing when we were in Joburg. The same
dress he asked me to wear when it's just the two
of us.
" You want me to wear that dress?."
" You love it and it fits you perfectly love."
" If you ask me to change it I swear you are
going to sleep on that couch." He laughs. He
kneels and moisturizes my body.
" Talk."
" I'm fine."
" I come to pee and I find my wife crying in the
bathroom. Why won't you talk to me?."
" mbuso...."
" Is it me?." what?. I pull him up and palm his
cheeks.
" Why would you think it's you myeni wami?.
You are my perfect husband. I am worried about
uMah that's all. "
" what you mean?."
" I think she's sick mbuso. She was talking
about what I must do when she dies."
" What?."
" She scared me and I think she has been sick
but we were too busy to notice and she's hiding
it from us. I asked her if we can go to the doctor
and she refused. That's why I was crying. I think
she's the one who's going to die."
My husband sits down and covers his face with
his hands and sighs deep.
" I am so scared luh. I don't know what I am
going to do if she dies. I don't want her to die
love."
" Go and talk to your mother love and find out
what's wrong please."
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" Go and talk to your mother love
and find out what's wrong please."
" ok love." He gets up. I wrap my arms
around him and hug him tight.
" You are not alone myeni wam. We are in
this together." He nods and leaves.
After finishing dressing I go to the kitchen
and it is empty. I look at the pots and they
are done cooking. I smile. The door opens
and sbu comes in. He smiles I smile back
" Hey luh How are you?." he gives me a
light side hug. I return it.
" I'm good wena?."
" I've been better."
" You don't sound okay. What's bothering
you."
" Can we sit." I nod and we sit. " Can you
please do something for me."
" Ok if you think I might help you."
" I think you can. Can you please talk to
sbani for me." ohk.
" Are you guys fighting or something?."
" I've been trying to get hold of her but she's
not answering my calls or my messages. I
don't know what's wrong or what I did."
" and you think she'll open up to me if I ask
her?."
" I think she will. Just please ask her to call
me back. Or answer my calls."
" Sbu knows that you're polygamous and I
think that scares her and the fact that you’re
royalty."
" But I have talked to her."
" Maybe you need one of your brother's
wives to talk to her. Someone who knows
what it's like. Maybe she might understand
that she has nothing to fear." he nods.
" I think I will do that but what if they tell her
only the bad?."
" You need someone who'll be honest to
her. Sbu if Sbani doesn't want to be in a
polygamous marriage then maybe you
need to accept that."
" But I love her luh."
" Then be patient with her. You can't force
her to be with you when she doesn't want
to."
" I have proven to her that I love her and I
want to be my wife."
" I know I'm not suppose to tell you this but
sbani said that you love someone else too
and you can't have that person. Has your
family found you a first wife from another
royal family?."
" No they haven't."
" then why does she feel like you love
someone else too?." he goes silent.
" It's complicated luh."
" Sbu. No woman wants to know that the
man she loves also loves someone else
too. Show her that you love her with all your
being. Don't make her feel like your love for
her is the second best." He sighs. " Sbu
forget about that woman that you think you
love and can't have. Sbani is a beautiful
young woman who loves you. Don't make
her doubt herself and the love you have for
each other. send your family to her family
and ask for her hand in marriage."
" I hear you luh. Thank you." he looks at me
then takes my hand and holds it. I politely
pull it back and smile.
" Can I get you anything?."
" Yeah I was looking for your husband."
" She's talking to uMah I..."
My husband comes in with mah and he's
holding her hand. He looks like he was
crying cause his eyes are red. Sbu and I
walk to them and I go to my husband.
" I'm going to take mah to the doctor. We'll
be back."
" Do you want me to come with you?."
" I don't want anyone to notice that we are
gone. Sbu will drive us."
" Ok. Call me and tell me what the doctor
says."
He gives me a kiss and I hug mah tight and
they all leave. God I hope it's nothing bad
and she's not going to die. It can't be her. I
about to walk back to the kitchen when I
see Owami pouring something on Mah's
2litre Tupperware bottle that she usually
drinks. It has lemons cucumbers and a
whole lot of things. I watch her pour all of
what is in the little bottle she has in her
hand. She shakes the bottle then puts it
back where it was then says.
" Die bitch." The she walks back outside." I
take mah'S bottle and open it. I smell it
thinking I will find a certain smell but there's
nothing.
Has this bitch been poison my mother in-
law?. Is she the reason why she's been
feeling sick and does mah suspect or
know?. I am going to kill this bitch I swear
to God I am!. I walk outside and look for my
brother. Sims has decorated the backyard
so beautiful you'd swear someone is going
to get married. The sun is shining bright
and it's warm and beautiful but inside I just
want to scream.
" Bhuti scelo?." He frowns. " Cookies and
milk?." He smiles the looks at my face and
his smile disappears.
I walk back to the house and he follows me.
I take the bottle and go with it to my
husbands study. He closes the door
" What's wrong luh?."
" I think Owami is poisoning mah."
" what?." I unlock the laptop and go to the
house security footage. He watches me fast
forward it until Owami appears. My brother
curses when she sees what owami did.
" What the hell man!."
" I know. I need you to find someone who
will test this thing for us and see if she's
really poisoning her or not."
" Hey it's okay sis. Don't cry." He hugs me.
" I'm going to kill her scelo I swear I am!."
" Let's figure this out first then we will deal
with her."
" Mah says she's dying scelo. She told
me..." I burst into tears.
" Don't cry sis. I promise you we will deal
with her. I need you to go to the kitchen and
make the same cucumber water. Do you
have a Tupperware like this?."
" I think I do."
" Go before she sees it's missing. We don't
want her to be suspicious."
" Ok."
We walk out he uses a different direction to
leave the house and I go to the kitchen. I
quickly make the same batch mah did then
look for the same Tupperware bottle and
luckily I find it. I pour her concoction then
place it where the other one was. I take a
deep breath then go to the backyard.
The witch of London is sitting down not
helping and she's busy on her phone. I walk
past her and go to where my sisters are at.
" I even forgot you're still in the house."
sims says.
" I was busy with something."
" Oh yes we know. You have changed
clothes and that can only mean one thing."
" What?."
" Umdavazo." they both say then we laugh.
" oh please. Everything looks almost done
and the food is warm. I'm worried about my
dad though and our father in-law. Why are
they not here already and where is zipho
and his girlfriend?."
" We are here. Sorry we are late." zipho
says.
" Zipho you know very well that uLindo was
suppose to be here and help us cook. She
is going to be part of this family right?."
" Yebo sis lungi I'm sorry it's that..."
" You two were busy being cosy while all of
us were working. Lindo if you want to be
part of this family then you better start
showing it. Sims here is pregnant but she
was been working since she woke up
ekuseni and wena you were having your
beauty sleep. Let it be the last time you do
that."
They all look at me shocked. I know they
have never seen this side of me and right
now I don't care. Owami is messing with my
family that I'm trying to bring together and
make as one. Zipho and Bonga will blame
themselves for the rest of their lives if
something happens to their mother while
they are still angry at her. She cannot die
before they forgive her. I don't want them to
live with that guilt.
" We are really sorry sis luh. I swear it's all
my fault." zipho says.
" Lindo and I will finish here. Sims and
lesego go and shower so we can begin.
Good here's my dad and our father in-law.
Oh my God I can't believe dad brought
Ursula again!. God as if this day can't get
any worse!." Sims and lesego leave us.
" are you okay sis khanyo?."
" I'm not fine zipho. I'm not fine at all. Go
and offer your dad and mine something to
drink." he nods then leaves. I sigh and
close my eyes. I so badly want to scream
curse and cry so loud. I keep checking my
phone to see if my husband has called but
nothing. I want to call him but I'm scared.
Right now I'm just praying that my mother
in-law is going to be okay. She can't die.
CHAPTER 93
UMSHADO
CHAPTER 93
LUNGI.
We finish setting up the table and the little
details that were left. I have been avoiding
my dad since he came including my father
in-law. I am so mad at them because my
father in-law hasn't had time for his wife
ever since the queen of London came. I
wonder if he even cares about her at this
point. He will have a rude awakening once
he knows that mah is sick amnd Owami is
poisoning her. The black widow and
London queen are already sitting together
and gossiping about God knows what.
The kids all come out and they sit in their
seats where sims and lesego helps them.
They look so excited. Sis nonto and my
other house keeper and the nannies come
out with bowls containing food. I walk back
to the house and I look at sis nonto and
she's not happy at all. My dad clearly
doesn't deserve this woman if he keeps
doing this to her. Maybe it's time sis nonto
just forgot about them too having a
relationship.
" Luh?." sims calls my name.
" Hmmm?." I look at her.
" Where's mah and your husband?.'
" They went to get something together."
" Your brother too and sbu?." Lesego asks.
" No he received a call and had to quickly
rush out."
" When have we started lying to each other
luh?. Wen know something is wrong. That's
why mbuso is not here or your brother. Is
mah sick?." I heave a sigh.
" My husband took his mother to the doctor
with sbu. I asked my brother to do
something for me because I had to be sure
of it." they nod.
we walk out and place the remaining food
on the table. The man come and they take
their seats. Sims directs everyone where to
seat. The remaining seats are those of my
husband and his mom. His two best friends
and the other two visitors of Owami. The
head of the table is reserved for my
husband. I told them that and no onme will
dispute.
The backyard door opens and they come
out. Mah looks a little better but I feel this
hard gripping fear inside of me it almost
knocks me off my feet. He pulls a chair for
mah who has her Tupperware bottle. She
sits down then puts the bottle in front of her.
my eyes land on Owami and she has this
cold evil look in her eyes and when she
sees me starring at her she gets surprised.
My husband kisses me and sits down too. I
stand up and they all get silent.
" I would like to thank everyone for coming
and being here so we can all have lunch as
a family. The last few months we have been
through so much as a family but with God's
grace we pulled through and made it.
We...." My phone pings. I take it out and
look at the message and it from my brother
and it reads.
" It's a deadly poison that you put in food or
water. It has no taste or colour that's why
maybe mbuso's mom wasn't aware. It kills
you slowly until you die and it takes only a
few weeks to kill you." I close my eyes and
sigh. My eyes land on mah my husband his
brothers and their dad then Owami.
" I'm sorry for that but as I was saying..."
" Oh my God they are here!." Owami says
standing up and runs to the house. Those
who don't know look at her confused.
" She's expecting company that she didn't
tell us was coming. In my house." I shake
my head. I'm about to go look for her when
the back door opens and in come two
women who look like versions of Owami.
They are skinny like her and wear flawless
beautiful make up. They are beautiful.
" Alice?." Busani says and she runs to him
and throws her arms around him kissing his
whole face.
" Uhm everyone this is my niece Lumka's
mother. Asanda and that over there is my
future daughter in-law. Asanda this is my
son that was taken from me...." she says
pretending to tear up. I roll my eyes. "...He
is mbuso. Busani's twin. This is the father of
my children qwabe and that is my twin
sister who....who ruined my life."
" Mother this is not the time!." Busani says
pushing away Alice in a not so gentle way.
" It's nice to finally meet you. I have heard
so much about you and your brothers. My
brother's can't stop talking about you." says
and my husband just nods. She seems a
little bit disappointed. " And what must I call
you?." she looks at Mah. " Just aunty or my
evil aunt?."
" Call her that and you will be out of my
house." They look at me.
" Who are you?."
" The person who didn't invite you to her
house but welcome and sit down."
She shares a look with owami and Asanda.
These people don't know me.
" Can you sit down?."
" I want to sit next to my man." Alice says.
Busani is sitting next to bonga who's facing
sims. The next seat is for my brother but
he's not back yet. Alice takes that seat and
lesego scoffs shaking her head.
" Can you pray for us owami before we
begin?." I ask her. She frowns.
" I don't pray." Thought as much.
" I would like to pray." I look at my dad and
he shakes his head to his date. " Oh it's
okay honey I insist. Everyone close your
eyes."
They bow their heads and close their eyes
but I don't.
" Father lord thank you for today. Thank you
for blessing me with this wonderful man
who loves me and thank you for the family
that I will call mine soon. Thank you for the
food we are about to eat. I hope it tastes as
good as it looks Amen." They say Amen. I
can't believe this woman. I hope dad didn't
propose to her cause I swear that is never
going to happen.
" Please continue luh."
" Thank you to everyone for being here
even those who went invited but welcome. I
would like to my husband for being here
today and for being the perfect husband
he's been to me. Thank you to all my
brothers for looking out for this family when
my husband couldn't. All of you know that
you are my brothers and I love you very
much. . Thank you to my parents in-law for
giving me this man I love so very much. I
love you Mah noBaba and thank you dad
for being here too. I love you and you are
the best dad ever. And of course to my
sisters. Thank you for being the people I
know I can always count on anytime. You
have my back and I will always have yours.
Thank you sis nonto for being more than an
aunty but a mother to me as well and to all
our aunties who help us in our home. They
are family too. Oh I almost forgot our kids.
We thank them for being the joys of our
lives the reason we wake up everyday.
Busani we welcome you to the family too
with the other additions...." Owami gasps.
Sims grins.
" Yesterday something beautiful happened
that was a start for all of us. What
happened yesterday was suppose to bring
peace amongst us and forgiveness but
sometimes those things take long and we
won't see the results at that exact time. I
saw and heard things that made me grow
as woman a mother and a wife. I love this
family very much and I know you love it like
I do and we will all do anything to protect it
from harm or anyone who tries to come
between us." My brother sits down.
" When I thought I was about to lose my
husband I saw how short life is. Anything or
anyone can be taken away from you at any
moment. What if that happens and you
were angry at that person. Will you be able
to forgive yourself knowing that that person
died before you had a chance to forgive
them and you are left with regret?. You
don't want to live with that guilt or regret for
the rest of your life. You still have a chance
to forgive someone and ask for forgiveness
too. No one is perfect in this world. We all
make mistakes and we learn from them.
Tell the one's you love how much they
mean to you before it's too late. Nothing in
this life is guaranteed. I hope as you eat
this wonderful food prepared with love you
will think about what I said. This isn’t just
any lunch but a lunch that is suppose to
bring us together and not let the things of
the past change us and make us do things
we will regret. You may eat."
They clap hands and I walk to my kids and
begin filling their plates. No one talks and
they are focused on their food. Owami
looks like she wants to throttle me and I
don't give a fuck. I walk back to the table
next to my husband and plate his food. He
begins to eat.
" Wow babe. When you're mother told me
your twin brother looks like you I thought
she was pulling my leg but damn babe.
He's so...."
" He's a married man who's wife is sitting
next to him. Have some manners." Sims
says.
" I was just admiring how handsome they
both look." Alice says.
" Who are you again?." lesego asks her.
" I'm Alice from London. Busani is my man
and hopefully soon I hope will also be part
of this family."
" Weh Busani nihamba nishela nje!." Bonga
says and we laugh.
" Alice is perfect for my son. She has class
and she looks beautiful." the four witches
laugh.
" Unlike who?." sims asks.
" Some of you."
" Mother!." busani reprimands her again.
" Every time you open your mouth Owami
nonsense comes out." My father in-law
says. Ohk I didn't see that coming.
" Don't talk to me like that Qwabe. I am the
mother of your kids."
" You tell me that every time like I don't
know." Mah pats her husband's hand.
" Well it's not my fault that I robbed of my
life!." Not this again.
" Can we eat please. The kids can hear us
even though they are sitting at another
table." I ask them.
" I was still talking!." Owami says and I
smile. Oh I'm close to losing my shit with
this woman.
" and I said lets eat!." My husband looks at
me and frowns. He palms my cheek and
makes me look at him.
" Love?."
" I'm sorry. I'm fine."
" Huh!." Owami says.
" So is this a thing here?." Alice asks. " Like
mbuso's wife and your girlfriends are
all....big. Yes. That's the right word big." her
eyes move from me to my sisters. Sims
lesego and I look at each other and we
laugh.
" Busani I feel sorry for you. It looks like you
are going to marry a woman who's going to
be evil like your mother." Sims says.
" What did you say about me?."
" She said you are evil and we all can see
past your bullshit!." Lesego says. The men
are just looking at us.
" How dare you say that about me!. I am
hurting here!. I have just found my son and
the man I love back and all of you are
treating me like I don't belong in this family!.
Why!."
" When I first met you I thought you were
this sweet kind hearted and beaufiful
woman. It was like I was seeing my mother
in-law in you but boy was I wrong."
" Khanyo what's going on?." My father in
law asks.
" What khanyo is saying baba is. Busani's
mother is a pretender. When she's around
certain people she acts a certain way and
when she's around us we see the real her."
Sims says.
" They are lying Qwabe!. You know me.
You know I am not that person."
" Stop lying because I am over this hole
thing!. Promise can you all take the kids to
the house and make sure they don't come
out. No matter what or better yet take them
to eat in the game room." She nods and
they all get up. " Sis nonto stay."
" Why are you attacking busani's mom. This
woman wanted her dead and stole her
son."
" I wish she would have stolen busani too
and not left him behind with you!." They
gasp in shock
" Love?!." I get up and wait for the kids to all
get in the house.
" Lungile don't say that!." My father almost
yells at me.
" You witch! I knew you were just
pretending to be this miss goody two
shoes!. You are just like sebe!. You don't
deserve my son!."
" First of all you don't know me. Secondly I
don't pretend. I know who the fuck I am and
I don't give a rats ass what you think about
me!. I am like sebe you are right about that.
I am a kind person I'm not a fake like you!."
" What?. Are you all going to let her talk to
me like that?." Bonga is eating with sims.
Scelo is watching me proudly. Zipho
Sponsored
my dad and his dad are looking at me
confused. Lesego is sipping her drink.
Ursula and busani look like they are scared
and sis nonto is looking at me proud. My
husband though and his mom are not. The
other two airheads look like they want to
jump me. I dare them.
" Don't talk to my aunt like that!. She is
older than you and she deserves some
respect!." she says standing up!.
" You sit your uninvited ass down if you
don't want to be hurt!." she hesitantly sits.
" Baby what is wrong?."
" Everything is wrong and it's all because of
this woman ever since she came into our
lives!."
" she's my aunty sisi don't talk bad about
her. I've known her all my life!." Owami
wails.
" She hates me! She hates me! They all
hate me!."
" Why are you all like this! Do you really
hate her that much for you to even say
these wicked things?." Alice says.
"I know something is wrong. Talk to me."
my husband says.
" Tell them Owami!. Tell them what is the
real reason you are here!."
" Ohk love lets go and talk."
" NO!. I want her to tell us the truth. Talk
Owami!."
" Luh it's okay. Calm down sisi." my mother
in-law says and tears stream down my face.
" Ok this looks serious. What did you do to
her. She won't cry for no reason." My dad
asks Owami.
" I swear I have no idea what she's talking
about. I am here so I can be in my sons
life."
This woman really doesn't know me. She
wants us to play? Then I'll show her how I
play. I walk to mah and take her bottle. I
pour the concoction on an empty glass then
walk to busani and put it infront of him. I
look at Owami and she looks like she's
about to faint.
" Drink busani."
" what?." he says.
" Drink this thing now!."
" My son don't drink it. What if she has
poised it!."
" Why would I poison my husband's
brother?. I didn't come here with this bottle
so when would I have had time to poison
it?."
" Well maybe my sister did cause she
always drink it. What if she pored poison in
there because she wants to kill my son
since she failed before?."
" My mom was with me. We took that
plastic bottle in the kitchen and came with it
here. Mah who made this?." my husband
says looking at her suspiciously.
" It was me. I made it for her because I
found her about to make it but I told her I
will make it for her." sis nonto says.
" Well they are working together don't you
see. Busani don't drink it. The are trying to
kill you."
" What are you scared of owami?." My
brother asks her. She stands up about to
grab that glass but I pull out my gun and
point it at busani head. Alice runs away and
Asanda scream. Lindo is so scared I think
the girl is never going to forget this day as
long as she lives.
" Khanyo?! Please my daughter don't do
this.
" Baba I know what I'm doing and with all
due respect please sit down!."
" Love?."
"Not now mbuso. Busani drink this
concoction now or else I blow your brains
out!." I say. Alice takes out her gun and
points it at me and Asanda takes hers out
too and points it and points it on my
husband. Bad move girl cause you're dead
now.
" I SAID DRINK IT BUSANI. I'M NOT
PLAYING WITH YOU." I repeat myself.
I don't know how but my brother and sbu
have their guns pointed at Owami and
Asanda. Bonga takes their guns and silently
sits them down. My husband stands up and
Alice takes a step back.
" Stop! Stop or I swear I am going to shoot
you!." My husband looks at her then I see a
very loud klap . Not a slap but a loud klap
landing on her Alice's face and takes the
gun breaking her hand.
" Never ever point a gun at me unless you
plan to use it. Bonga call Fanele and his
sons and tell them to fly here before the day
ends. We have an urgent family matter." He
looks at his twin brother. Bonga comes and
drags Alice to sit with her friend Asanda
and they are terrified. My dad's date has
been silent since she saw the gun. I look at
her and she's pale. Good!. This will teach
her a lesson to not mess with my family.
" Drink it busani." Owami screams.
" No! No! No! Don't drink it!." My father in-
law stands up and walks to her. He roughly
grabs her and busani stands up.
" Sit down bro unless you were in it with
her." My husband tells him. He looks at his
mother then shakes his head and sits
down. Damn I feel sorry for her. Busani
takes the drink and gulps it down. Owami
screams like busani has just died.
" What the hell did you put in there
Owami?!" she cries.
" Talk or I blow his brains off!." Busani looks
at me and a tear falls down. Damn this
woman for doing this to them!.
" Talk woman!." Their dad says.
" I...it... I have killed my son!." Qwabe
stands still. " It has poison inside."
" What? What did you do Owami?. Were
you poisoning my wife." My husband and
his brothers scoff. Qwabe looks at them.
" I didn't do it I swear!. I saw luh pouring
something in there!." I burst into fits of
giggles and laugh.
" You bitch!. You stupid bitch!. I saw you
pouring something in there and I instantly
knew what you were doing!. My mother has
been sick ever since you came to South
Africa because you have been poisoning
her!."
" She's lying Qwabe I swear!."
" My brother and I saw you and he
confirmed that it was poison. You have
been slowly killing our mother because you
wanted revenge for what she did!. Are you
happy now?." I ask her. Qwabe pushes her
hard and goes to his wife but his sons block
him from their mother. My mother in-law
covers her face and cries.
" Get out of my way!." My brother leaves
and comes back with cuffs and cuffs the
three bitches. Why isn't the Black widow
cuffed with them?.
" No!." zipho says.
" I will not tell you again. Get the fuck out of
my way!."
" When you saw your long lost lover you
threw our mother away like a piece of shit.
You cheated on her infront of us and we
said nothing. You failed to protect her like
how you have always done but no more.
You will not hurt her again!." Bonga says.
" She's my wife and you won't keep her
away from me!." qwabe says.
" She's your wife when it suits you. You
couldn't even see that she was sick. Stay
away from our mother!. You will not go in
the house and make noise baba. We have
kids and we don't want to scare them!." My
husband says. Bonga takes his mother and
they walk in the house. Qwabe sits down
defeated.
" Mbuso I am your mother!. She wronged
me and your brother!. She wanted us
dead!." I lower my gun on busani.
" I was happy to finally find you after all the
years of searching. I believed you when you
said you forgave her. It was just the three of
us when you said that. I thought you were
an amazing person and a great mother.
You really forgave her and that what she
did will stay with her and God will judge her
but you were lying!. When did you start
poisoning her Owami?."
" I...I..." Mbuso pulls out a gun and points it
on her. She goes pale. " I we...fanele and
I....the same day went to that house in
Joburg." Oh my God!. My dad curses!.
" She tried to kill you and failed. You came
back not for me but for my dad and have
your revenge. Sebe has always been a
wonderful mother to me and she loves me
unconditionally. I don’t know if I can say the
same for my brother. I don't think you love
him unconditionally. My wife is right. My
mother should have stolen both of us and
killed you!." Owami wails. My husband is so
hurt. I know cause I can feel the way he's
speaking. " You tried to have your revenge
and kill her and you have succeeded. She's
dying and there's nothing we can do!. You
should be happy now and celebrate. Why
are you crying owami?. Is it because your
son drank the same poison and he's going
to die too?. This is what you wanted right?.
To get your sweet revenge! Well was it
worth it?. It must be cause your will will be
done but how are you going to look at
yourself in the mirror Live with yourself
knowing that you killed my brother! Your
own son?."
" I'm sorry....I am so sorry...Please forgive
me!."
" Aunty what did you and dad do!." Asanda
cries.
" Take them to the basement while we wait
for fanele!." Sbu and zipho take them to the
basement.
" What about her?." I point at Ursula with
my gun.
" what did I do?."
" Yes her!. The black widow. You think you
can come into our dad's life pretend to love
him so he can marry you and then kill him
so you can have his money?." Lesego says
and dad looks at her shocked!.
" What? I don't do that!. I love him!." she is
shaking
" Whoa brika madla madoda. We know you
are a man eater but here sisi yi full stop. If
you ever! and I mean ever look at our dad
contact him or even get near him you will
know us like how these three are going to
learn what we do with traitors and people
who think they can mess with us. You will
walk out of here and never say a word of
what happened here to anyone. Not even
that annoying daughter of yours!. We have
eyes everywhere and we know everything
about you and we will find you and kill your
whole family just try us. Now leave!." She
looks at dad then us and at dad again who
looks like he doesn't a fuck. She gets up
and leaves crying.
" The least you can do is request an Uber
for her." Sis nonto says the gets up. Dad
stands up too.
" I am so disappointed in how both my
father's treat the woman they claim to love."
Dad looks down then he goes to qwabe.
They talk then walk inside the house.
" Zipho request an Uber for her and make
sure she gets safe wherever she's going."
He nods.
Bonga comes back and he looks like he
was crying. He looks like shit.
" Am I really going to die? " busani asks me.
I sit next to him and take his hand in mine. I
wipe the tears on his face.
" This was one of the hardest things I have
ever done. Pointing a gun on you was like I
was pointing it at my husband and I am
sorry but I had to do it so your mother can
confess. I saw her busani poisoning that
drink and I told my brother because my
husband had left. He took the bottle to get it
tested and it had poison. The one you
drank was another one I made exactly as
the same one your mom poisoned but that
one had nothing on it. You are not dying
busani and I am so sorry for what you're
mother has put you through. You don't
deserve that they are poisoning her. I would
have killed you myself. You proved today
where your loyalties lie. With us your family.
We are all here for you. Go and get some
sleep. It's been a long day!." I kiss his
cheek and pull him in for a hug and he cries
for a while then stops and gets up.
" We don't hold anything against you. You
are our blood brother and we love you."
Bonga says. They all hug him the watch
him walk in the house.
" I'll go make sure he doesn’t do anything
stupid." Bonga says and runs after him.
My husband walks up to me pulls me up
and hugs me tight. I can feel him breathing
me in. His body is tense and his heart is
beating fast.
" You scared me today. I have never seen
you like this."
" We haven't been protecting our family.
That's why Owami was able to do the things
we did."
" Luh is right. Owami could have poisoned
all of us and we wouldn't have known."
scelo says.
" I hate her." Lesego says.
" She thought she was going to get away
with it but she didn't. Is Mah really dying?."
My husband sighs.
" They did some test and took her blood.
We will hear tomorrow how bad the poison
is but they gave her some pills to flush out
some of it."
" Lindo?." she has been too quiet with her
head on zipho when he came back.
" Sis luh?."
CHAPTER 94
UMSHADO
CHAPTER 94
MBUSO.
I have seen my wife angry hurt and crying.
When luh is sad she doesn't talk. She clings to
me like a child when we are sleeping and goes
to the bathroom to cry so I won't see or hear her.
She knows that I know her like the back of my
hand and I always know when she's not okay. I
have been watching her since we came back
from the doctor and I could tell that something
was eating her up but I wasn't prepared for what
I heard. I have been saying this whole situation
is fucked up but now it's even worse than any of
us imagined.
Seeing my wife pulling that gun out of her bra
and pointing it on my brother was surprising and
also scary. I was scared for her because I didn't
know if she was going to do it but deep down I
knew she wasn't going to do it. I was so turned
on with her I got hard watching her talking and
holding that gun. She made me want to bend her
over the table and fuck her at that moment but
all those thoughts came out when that girl
pointed a gun on me. I feel sorry for my brother
though because he's the one who going to be the
most hurt out of everyone.
" What are we going to Owami?." my little
brother asks.
" We kill her." my wife says without bating her
beautiful eyelashes. Everyone gets quiet and
looks at her then me.
" I will decide what happens to her. She's my
mother. Lets go to my office love." I can feel
her body going tense. We stare at each other
until she nods.
She turns and I follow her from behind watching
her beautiful hips and round ass that she wants
me to fuck swaying from side to side. She
knows my eyes are on her ass cause she turns
and looks at me. This dress is so light and I'm
going to rip it off her. She opens the door and
we get in. I close it and lock it after.
" Can I say something?."
" When did you start asking me if you can
talk?." She goes quiet. " Talk love." I walk
closer to her and her breathing changes.
" Are you angry at me?."
" No love. Why would I be angry at you my
love?."
" Because I said we have to kill your mother?." I
kiss her pink pouty lips that she has been biting
furiously. I want to do that. I move everything
off my desk and her pupils dilate.
" Turn around and bend over." she does without
hesitating. I lift up her dress and I'm greeted my
her lovely ass.
I kneel and kiss those globes pull her thong
down and she steps out of it. I pick it up and
inhale it. Damn she smells amazing. I put it on
my pocket.
" Move your legs apart."
" Don't you want to go to the gym and let some
steam off?." I move her dress further up on her
back.
" No. This is what I need to let some steam off. I
wanted to fuck right there when you pulled out
that gun and point it at my brother. You were so
sexy. Where is it?." She fishes it from her
breasts then puts it on the table.
" Was it loaded?." She shakes her head. Good
girl. " Never put a gun on my twins. i will but
you a garter that holds a gun on your thighs."
she nods again.
I take off my golf shirt unbuckle my chino
pants they drop down and my dick springs free.
I rub it between her ass cheeks and she moans.
She can scream as much as she likes and wants
to because no one is going to hear her.
I put my finger on her pussy and she is wet but
not the way I want. I lay my chest on her wrap
my fingers around her throat and then plunge
my tongue deep in her and her tongue meets
with mine. I kiss her while I separate her legs
more and play with her clit. She moans and
pushes her ass back at me. The more I kiss her
and play with her hard bud is the more she gets
wet. She is ready now.
" Love?." I say between kisses
" Hmmmm " her eyes are closed. I pull her ass
cheeks apart.
" I love you."
" I....." I thrust in fast and hard. She grabs the
desk and holds her breath. " I...." I pull out the
thrust back in again rougher this time and she
moans and her pussy contracts around my dick
Fuck!.
She arches her back I grab her waist pull it back
again to me then hold those cheeks separate
them and fuck the shit out of her. I don't give
her time to catch her breath cause my pace is
quick She moans calls my name throws her back
and her vagina muscles squeeze my dick. Fuck
shit is so fucken good. Her pussy hot like an
oven slippery like a water slide and tight like a
fist.
" Oh fuuuuckkk baby! You feel so fucken
amazing!." she moans.
I pull her legs shut together with my dick still
inside of her pull apart those more those ass
cheeks change my [ace and begin to it her g-
spot . She screams and calls my name. I hit it
over and over again her legs shake. I put my
hand on her pressing it more so she won't
move. Her pussy is so fucken hot my dick is
begging me to release but I'm not ready. I keep
hitting her g-spot her legs shake and she
screams then I feel a squirt of liquid coming out.
She squirts I keep hitting her g-spot until her
legs fail to hold her.
I pull out turn her around and my wife is high. I
kiss her deeply rubbing her clit again and her
body gets light. I stop rubbing her she opens her
eyes and looks at me. I take a step back a little
grab her dress then tear it apart and it falls
down. She shakes her head and fights the smile
curving her face. I take off her bra walk us to
the couch and sit her on my lap. She balances
herself grabs my dick and sheathes herself with
it. I can feel her pussy contracting still hungry
for my dick.
" Oh my god! " she says.
Her boobs are on my face. I watch her as she
bounces on top of me hands on the couch head
thrown back and those lips sandwiched between
her teeth. I palm her boobs and suckle on those
nipples. She bounces up and down squeezing
her pussy and I know that she wants me to cum.
" Love? " She moans. " I said I love you."
" I...Love...You Mbuso." I smile. We are both so
sweaty like we've been running a marathon.
" What do you want my love.....Tell me."
" I....Oh..." I grab her waist and control her
movement. She curses. Her pubic hair rubs on
my skin so fucken good it makes me get more
harder. " Tell me baby."
" Oooohhh.....Ngichamele....Please." Oh fuck!.
My balls get tight like they heard her please.
" I'm not ready love." Fuck me. My did she have
to say that?.
" Please baby...Ngichamele!....Ngiyakucela!."
" Fuuuuuuuck!." She grabs my head then forces
her tongue in me fighting for dominance. I
chuckle inside.
I put my hand between her ass cheeks and find
her tight ring. She is so fucken wet. The sound
of skin smacking against skin can be heard. I
rub it and her pace becomes fast. Fuck I'm not
going to last. I continue to rub it and her moans
and curses fill my eyes and the whole room.
My dick is telling me that it is cuming whether I
want to or not. It doesn't give a fuck anymore. I
rub her tight some more then gently force my
thumb inside and fuck it is damn hot inside!.
She curses!.
" You still want me to fuck you in the ass!." I
push my dick amd thumb in her some more.
" Yes! Yes! Fuck me! Nngichamele MBUSO!
I'm Coming! " She screams.
" Aaaaaah! Fuck!." I wrap my arms around her
holding her tight to my chest and thrust in fast
hard and long. My dick swells hard and then I
feel my seed coming out and shoots straight to
her womb. I groan loud and thrust until there's
nothing left in me. I sit heavily on the couch
with luh on my arms.
W sit in silence and I can feel her body going
lighter and lighter. She wants to nap.
" Love?."
" Hmmm....." I chuckle.
" Don't sleep. We have to talk." She opens her
eyes. " Lets go freshen up."
" You tore my dress. I can't walk out of here
naked."
" No one will see us and even if they do it's fine.
This is our house and they won't come on this
side of the house. Wear my t-shirt." She
mumbles something then gets up. I spank her
ass and she giggles. She takes her torn dress and
wipes herself. She comes and wipes me too.
" I have to come back and clean here." we clean
after ourselves every time she squirts and when
we make love and fuck.
" You'll do that when we are done talking. No
one will come inside." She puts on my shirt and
it stops just belong her ass. She should walk
around more dressed like this. I pick up my
chinos and wear them.
" Are you ready?."
" I am. Are you?." She wants to laugh.
" Oh love I'm going to leave you behind." I open
the door peek to see if there's anyone around
then look at my wife. " You better run now."
She sprints out running to our bedroom and I
just laugh. I close the door and walk to ours. Sis
nonto comes out of one of the guests bedrooms
holding a laundry basket just as luh disappears
from a corner and she frowns looking at me.
" Hhayi sis nonto close your mouth." I pull her
leg. She shakes her head.
" I can't with you two." she says throwing a shirt
on me. " Cover yourself man. There are...hhay
gugu what are standing there for?." I turn and
see gugu one of the nannies and her mouth
hangs open looking at me. I quickly wear the
shirt sis nonto gave me. I raise my eyebrow at
gugu who's still looking at me. Luh is going to
kill me. The rule is no walking around in the
house naked or half naked.
" Hhey wena gugu you want to get fired?!." sis
nonto shouts at her and she seems to remember
where she is because she turns and quickly
leaves.
" I'm sorry sis nonto."
" Hhay nawe mbuso man!." I laugh and walk
away.
I get in our bedroom and luh is in the shower.
After another round in there dressed and
smelling fresh. We are sitting on the couch
facing each other.
" I'm hungry baby. What did you want us to talk
about."
" You love."
" what? What did I do?" she's surprised.
" What did you mean when you said ' we have
to kill her?." she shifts.
" I meant that she betrayed us. That's why I said
that."
" Who is she?."
" She's your mother."
" You want to kill my mother love?." she keeps
quiet." You want the person that brought me
into this world dead?. My mother? The reason I
am here with you now?."
" She betrayed us and I thought that it is what
you would want." I shake my head and chuckle.
" Do you hear yourself love?. You thought I
would want to kill my birth mother because she
wants to kill her sister who tried to kill her and
my brother first?." She looks down.
" Hey don't look down. Look at me I'm here.
When those words came out of your mouth did
you think ' what am I saying?.' love. Did you
think how those words would make me feel?."
" No I didn't think." I know she didn't.
" Are you killer now sthandwa sam?." she
shakes her head no. " When you said we kill her
you meant you and whom?. You're brother?."
she shakes her head.
" So now you decide who lives and who dies?."
she shakes her head no again.
" Awusakwazi ukukhuluma manje?."
" Ngyakwazi."
" Khuluma ke!."
" I was hurt and angry when I saw her pouring
that poison. I am trying to protect my family."
" So the job of protecting this family is yours
now?." she keeps silent. " Who am I to you and
to this family?."
" You are the head of this family. My husband."
" Why couldn't you wait for me to come back
then tell me what you saw my birth mother
doing?."
" I didn't know when you will be back and I was
worried about the both of you. I was angry and I
decided to ask for my brother to help."
" You decided not to wait for me and do things
your own way. You decided to let your brother
see what my birth mother did. You decided that
I had to find out what was going on in my own
home in front of everyone else before you let
me know like your husband. You are now the
one making decisions of this family because my
great grandmother told you you are the
Matriarch of this family. You dominate in this
family. You head and rule all of us including me
your husband?."
" No my husband it was never my intention to
make you feel like you are not the ruler of this
family. You are and always will be the ruler of
this family. I was just trying to help you cause I
could see that everything was heavy on you."
" Why would I fail to come and confide in you
where I am failing and when everything is too
much for me to handle love?. Was there ever a
time since you met me where I couldn't handle
anything?."
" No."
" You made it as if I have no control over my
family. I have no idea what is going on. Had
you come to me first and told me what you saw
Things could have been handled allot better."
" I realise that now."
" Luh you pointed a gun on my brothers head.
You don't know how he would have reacted. He
might not have reacted out of respect for you
and me. Did you think about that?."
" I didn't." she sniffs. " Wipe those tears." she
does and looks at me. " you don't realise that
you put yourself in harms way. Did you
honestly think that you can overpower a man
who's as big almost like your husband?." I
didn't.
" I tried to talk to you to come down so we can
talk and tell me what's wrong but you didn't
want to hear none of that. You said ' not now
mbuso.' Ngumfana ojola naye mina?. ( am I
your boyfriend? ) "
" I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disrespect you."
" How do you think busani would have felt if he
heard you say you want his mother dead?. Did
you think about my half sister at all? How it will
affect them. Did you think he would forgive you
and me knowing that we killed his mother?. The
only mother they have ever known?. Did you
think about how am I going to look at my
brother everyday knowing that my wife killed
her?." she's holding her tears that are threatening
to fall.
" You saw her poisoning my mother's bottle and
you got angry and wanted revenge on her. I
know we don't know my birth mother that well
but have you seen how anger hatred and revenge
made her do? " she nods. " It almost made her
kill her own son. The revenge she so desperately
wants. Did you not see that revenge almost got
me killed and made me leave you and my
children?. Do you want to be like them too?."
She bursts into tears walks to me and kneels
down. She lays her head on my lap cries and
keeps apologizing. I sooth her back shushing
her. She might think that they are just words but
speaking something like that can anger the
ancestors and cause problems between us and
pour family. I pull her up and sit her on my lap.
" You are a mother love. What would you do if
someone you trusted did the same thing to you
sebe did to owami. I know what I would do. I
would want that person dead too the day I find
him. You are the one who was telling me
everything fanele said after sebe stole me. You
were crying in my chest and said you couldn't
image what it was like for her or what it would
be like if someone stole our kids." She hides her
face on my neck and continues to cry.
" Have you lost your faith in me that I can't
protect my family?. Have you lost respect for
me because I am no longer that hard cold mbuso
you hate?."
" No...never."
" You know this very well that I am always a
step ahead from anyone. I know what goes in
my home and my family luh. I might not tell
you everything at that time but you be able to
trust me wait for me and let me bear that
burden. Not you my wife. I don't want anything
dark that will touch this beautiful and light soul.
I don't want darkness to taint you luh cause one
it does. There's no turning back." she nods.
" Do you remember what you said to me like I
don't know if it was a day before our wedding or
something?." she looks at me. with her red puffy
eyes and pouty mouth. I kiss her.
" You said to me that I shouldn't involve your
family in everything we do. You said I must
stop talking to them about what goes on in our
family unless we absolutely have to. Do you
still remember? "
" I do."
" Good because now I am saying telling you the
same thing. You will talk to me if you can't my
brothers are here and the last result will be your
brother. Siyezwana?."
" Yebo ngiyezwa myeni wami. ( I understand
my husband.) "
" Never ever in your life my wife point a gun at
any of my brothers unless they mean you harm
and our kids then you can use it shoot them if I
am not there and if your brother is not there to
help do you understand."
" I do my husband." I wipe her tears.
" Who are you?." I ask her. She frowns first.
" Your wife. The mother of your children." she
says so proudly I smile.
" Who's my wife?"
" Lungile Gumede." That's my fucken wife.
" Yes. You are Lungile Gumede. Not Lungile
Ngcobo. Not Lungile Zikalala. You are a
Gumede. Mawuphahla you call the Gumede
clan names. That' s who you are. La! Kukwa
Gumede. Everything we do we do it they way
our forefathers have been doing. Uzaba i
Matriach le kaZikalala not here!. Uyangizwa
angith?."
" Yebo Mnguni. I won't ever do it again. I am so
sorry for disrespecting your dad my dad and
you. I know better than that." I kiss her
forehead.
" You were hurt and angry. You wanted to fight
for us and I can't fault you for that. You forgot
that your husband is here. He's the one who
must handle all of this. I am so proud of you for
protecting your family. I will handle this whole
thing from now on okay. You have been
through allot and I don't want you to be stressed
and worried."
" How are we not going to get worried and
stressed when you and I know that someone is
going to die?."
" I know it's hard love but if the word is already
out and it has been written down then who are
we to change that?. We have to accept it and
make peace with it. We will cry and mourn
them. Okay?."
" Okay I am just scared."
" Let me worry okay. Whatever happens I need
you to accept it with your heart cause I won't
lose you luh. You have cried for long and now
it's enough. I don't want to see you ever in pain."
" I love you my husband. You are everything to
me."
" I am?." She laughs.
" That's more like it. I want to see you beaming
with happiness. Happy and loved."
" Why is Umshado this hard baby?." she asks
me
" We didn't know what we were getting
ourselves into when we got married but I
wouldn't change a thing. To have this moment
right now with you love? I would do it over and
over again."
" I wouldn't change a thing too."
" I love you uyezwa. Ungowami wena." she
blushes.
" Uyindoda yam engiyithandayo. Ubaba
wezingane zami. ( You are my man The one I
love. The father of my children.) "
" Damn right I am." I kiss her long and hard and
I get hard again.
" They are waiting for you. Go." she giggles.
" I know love. Put your gun back in the safe and
make sure it's locked."
" I will." I kiss her again the we leave our
bedroom and Fanele's voice is the first thing I
hear. He's shouting in my house?. My wife's
face changes.
" I'll deal with him." This fucken uncle is on my
last nerve.
CHAPTER 95
UMSHADO.
CHAPTER 95
MBUSO.
When I walk in the kitchen my uncle is on his
feet making noise. Shouting and demanding that
I let her sister go. His sons are tryin g to calm
down but he won't have none of that. I have
never ever shouted like this in my house ever. I
am behind him and he doesn't realise that I am
watching him.
" Where is that son of a bitch!."
" Who's a son of a bitch uncle?." He turns. "
Why are you shouting in my house?."
" What the fuck did you do to my sister you
piece of tr...."
I punch him on the nose and I hear it breaking.
Blood spills out and he screams. I grab him by
his shirt and drag him out of my house. I throw
him out and close the door.
" Who wants to follow him?." They keep quiet.
" What's going on brother?. Where is my sister
and aunty?."
" Are you here to listen to why I told you to
come here or are you to make noise in my house
like your father? If that is the reason I suggest
you live now because I will not have anyone.
Let alone another man come into my home
where my kids are and start screaming. Which is
it?." I ask them
" We are not here to fight. We just want to know
why we are here."
" Good. You will soon find out. Are you
hungry?." They nod.
" Gugu?."
" Yes sir."
" Make them food. Guys go to the living room.
She will bring it there." gugu nods. " Aren't you
all going to check if your dad is okay?."
" He is a hot head and he deserved it." The guys
go to the living room.
" Fanele is too much. I don't get how his head
works." scelo says.
" By the time I'm done with him. He'll be sorry."
The door opens and Fanele walks in looking like
shit.
" Look at what you did to me. Who's child are
you?."
" You come in my house. You stand up and
begin to shout like a mad man. What the fuck is
wrong with you?!." He keeps quiet. " Don't you
know you fucken respect another man's
house?!. Have I ever been in your house and
disrespected it?."
" No."
" So what gave you the fucken right to come in
my home and do as you please?!. You firstly
began by disrespecting my wife. You called her
all sorts of names and I kept quiet but you still
continued and again I keot quiet. Now you come
in my home and you do this?. In my house?.
Ucabanga ukuthi kuhlala bani lana wena?. I
zingulube? ( Who do you think stays here?.
Pigs?.) Yabona wena ungijwayela amasimba!." I
say pointing at his face. " Take this damn hat off
my house." I slap it off his head and it falls.
" You will go to the living room sit your ass
down and eat. You will keep that big mouth of
yours shut." He looks at me then leaves.
My phone rings. I look at it and it's frank.
" Bro?."
" We are on our way. Where do you want me to
take them?."
I haven't told luh about this and I can't bring
them here now.
" Sbu? Is anyone in your house?."
" No bro." I need you to go to your house. Frank
is on his way there. I will send you a message
and tell you to come here."
" Something wrong?."
" It's what we talked about earlier." He nods and
leaves.
I hear luh greeting them then she comes in.
She's not happy at all. She sits.
" I don't want him in my home."
" I know. Just be a little patient then all of this
will be over." she nods. " When the guys are
done. I want you to go and call everyone to the
living room."
" Is bonga and busani here?." my wife asks.
" They are with the kids. The girls are outside."
scelo tells her.
" You want them here too?.'
" Busani has to be here so he can tell everyone
waht he knows regarding his uncle and mother."
she nods.
Sis nonto and gugu come back carrying
plates. Mbuyiselo comes in too carrying some.
" Thank you MaNgcobo for the food." Luh
nods.
" I know something is wrong but we want you
to know that we have no idea what out father
and aunt are planning. What we know is we
heard dad talking to some cop guy Paul from
Standerton about you mbuso and luh."
" Oh my God Paul?. How the hell did the two of
them meet?." Luh stands up. Fuck that mother
fucker!. I thought Victor dealt with the guy!.
" Paul's Partner partners parents are our dad's
neighbour. When we were driving to the airport
the guy called dad and I don't know what the
guy said but we heard your name and luh's.
When we asked him who he was talking to he
said the guy was asking questions about you but
he didn't tell him anything."
" Fuck! And you believed him?!."
" Fuck no. That's why we decided that we were
going to tell you." Mbuyi says.
" This is the shit that happens when you don't
deal with shit yourself and send someone to do
it!. Look at this now!. Fuck!."
" I thought Uncle Victor dealt wih it?." Luh says
" Well apparently he didn't. Fuck!. I don't need
this right now!."
" What do you need?." Mbuyi asks.
" We'll deal with it ourselves." scelo says.
" Look guys I know my father fucked up. That's
the only reason you called of us here. Mabutho
has strong contacts in the police service and we
can make everything or anyone disappear."
" he's right bro. I can make all of that happen."
Mabutho says coming in."
" And you want something in return right?."
" We do. Just let our father go Mbuso. Don't kill
him."
" You know I feel insulted right now. Who told
you I was going to kill him huh?."
" Mbuso we know you."
" No you don't. Cause if you did you would
know that I don't kill my own family no matter
what. I am not some animal that goes around
killing everyone. He is a pain in the ass but I
will never kill your father. You are my brothers
or so I thought you were."
" Brother...."
" What made you think that I can't deal with this
Paul shit myself huh. As brothers I thought we
help each other no questions asked. I would do
anything for without expecting anything in
return. But don't worry as I said I won't kill your
dad but I want you to know that after today. I
never want to see him in my house. Ever. I will
only see him when there's something needed in
the family."
" Brother you know that once a cop gets killed.
The investigation won't stop and I know you
don't want that."
" Mabutho ungabaza amandla wami
ngiyakubona. Whatever I want or need. I get it
done. Any part of the world. You want to sort it
out? Do it. Just let me know when it's done."
" We didn't mean to insult you brother but he's
our father."
" I get it and don't worry about it. You will soon
hear why you are here. Love call everyone." she
gets up and leaves.
I take my phone and dial Victors number.
" Mnguni."
" Uncle. You good?."
" I'm fine. I just miss those little rascals that's
all and you know Buhle's son has been staying
with me."
" The boys are fine. Is everything okay with
him?."
" It is. He's just visiting but he says he wants to
stay with his real family."
" And what do you think?."
" I would like that but what about the people
that raised him?."
" Talk to them and come up with a plan. They
might let you keep him during the holidays."
" Yeah I'll do that."
" Let me know if I can help with anything."
" I will. What's wrong cause I can tell this is not
a social call."
" Paul is what is wrong?."
" How now cause I made sure that little fuck
keeps his mouth shut."
" His partner is the one talking now but don't
worry I'm dealing with it."
" What does he want now cause when they told
us that they found their remains somewhere in
Bloemfontein and we had a burial for them
years ago. Nothing links all of us to them."
" I know that but that fuck won't let this go and
now he's making his partner talk to my family."
" Fuck we don't need this. I'll go and pay him a
visit."
" Do that and see what it is that they are up to."
he agrees. I hang up.
My wife comes back. She's so beautiful. I watch
her walking up to me and she blushes when she
sees that I'm starring at her. I love that she still
does that.
" They are all in the living room excluding the
ladies. They said they are fine where they are."
" Where are they?."
" In sims bedroom. I think I'm going to join
them."
" No. I want you with me. I won't do this
without you." She nods. I kiss her.
" I still haven't forgiven you mbuso." Luh
giggles.
" It was my idea not his."
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" I don't care. I went blind." we
laugh.
" Go guys. We are coming." They leave.
I pull her to me and hug her tight. This is
home.
" Can we trust them?." she asks
" we can baby. They didn't have to tell us
but they did." she nods. " My half sister and
her father are here. They came with your
aunt and Frank from London."
" Where are they?."
" At sbu's house. I will tell them when to
come. I want to give my birth mother one
last chance before they come in."
" Baba is going to be hurt. I apologized to
both of them."
" You did good baby. What my dad will get
serves him right. I don't care about him
now." I kiss her again. She giggles. " Lets
get this hsoe ready.
We walk in the living room and they are
there excluding the other three in the
basement. Luh sits down next to her dad.
She has forgiven him.
" Half of you know why you are here and
the others don't. We had lunch earlier and
very interesting things happen. I'm sure
uncle you know what we are talking about."
He looks down.
" Dad what is mbuso talking about?."
" I don't know what he's talking about."
Fanele denies.
" I thought might say that. Bro can you
please bring them up here." I as scelo. He
nods and leaves.
I'm watching Fanele and he looks like he
wants to sprint out of here. I wonder what
his kids are going to say. Scelo comes in
followed by my mother who runs to her
brother crying hysterically and Asanda goes
to her brothers too crying. Alice is the only
one looking like a lost puppy.
" All of you sit down!." I tell them. The house
goes quiet.
" What did you to her?." Fanele asks.
" Mbuyiselo Mabuthoa and nawe Mthunzi.
Your dad and my birth mother have been
planning to have their revenge on my
mother their sister. The two of them have
been feeding sebe poison without all of us
knowing...."
" What?! " they look at their father shocked.
" He's lying. I don't know what he's talking
about."
" You know uncle I have camera's in my
house. I know and see what is going on. My
birth mother here was having a
conversation with busani and spilled
everything out. When my wife and I
discovered I confronted busani and he
confirmed what we already know."
" How can you betray your mother like
this?! After everything your mither and I do
you go ahead and spread lies to these
people you don't know?. Is that how you
thank me for raising you?."
" Did you or did you not poison aunt
sebenzile dad?." mthunzi asks him.
" I did no such thing and neither did my
sister."
" Uncle stop lying. You know very well that
you and mom have been planning this for
years. You have been waiting for the right
opportunity to have your revenge. Mom told
me."
Fanele looks at his sister like she has
betrayed him. Owami looks down.
" Oh she told you that?. Did she also tell
you that she knew where mbuso was all
these and she had someone follow sebe?."
My dad gasps looking at owami.
" I know that. I know she wanted to kill her
so she can takeover her life just like sebe
did to her. It was your plan and now you are
going to deny and say it was all her idea?."
" It was her idea. When I told her I found
you she asked me to not tell anyone
because she had a plan...."
" Shut up Fanele!. You're the one who
came with that idea. I wanted to come
home and see my son."
" I don't care who knew first and told who!.
What I care about is why did you come here
mother and pretend that you have forgiven
your sister and you are ready to move on?.
Why did you lie to my face?."
" I was angry. I am angry and I wanted her
to suffer like she made me suffer mbuso.
She took you away from me!."
" Yes she did but when you found out about
me you still didn't come to me. You didn't
care about me because all you wanted was
your revenge and your boyfriend. You say
I'm your son but ever since you failed to
show me that are now here only for me and
no one else. You showed me that I didn't
matter to you and that hurt me but I told
myself that even though she didn't give birth
to me. Not once has she made me feel like
I don't matter. Like I am not important to
her. Never."
" Mbuso I'm sorry...."
" Sorry for what exactly?. You could have
told all of us that you want sebe as far away
from you as possible. You could have been
honest to all of us and told us how much
you hate her and no one was going to judge
you because we understand. You knew
about me this whole time but not even once
did you try to contact me because you didn't
give a fuck about me." Damn I take a deep
breath.
" Son..."
" Don't call me that!. You don't get to call
me that. I am not your son. You and your
brother were going to kill sebe then frame
my innocent brothers. What kind of mother
are you?. Sebe might not be an angel but I
know she would never do to your kids what
you wanted to do to her children!." They
look at owami and her brother. Owami
wails.
" My wife saw owami poisoning her sister
concoction. What you don't know mother is
the concoction busani drank is not the one
you poisoned. Your son could have died
because of your revenge. When luh pointed
a gun on busani to drink that drink your
sister asanda and this girl right here pulled
out guns and pointed it at my wife and me."
I look at Asanda.
" Asanda you did what?. Where did you get
a gun?." Mabutho asks her.
" I got it from aunty. She told me we had to
protect ourselves because mbuso's wife
and the other wives are ratchet and they
might decide to attack us for looking classy
and beautiful." what? Luh chuckles and
shakes her head. I take my phone and sent
sbu and Frank an sms to come.
" Your lying wena Asanda. You knew very
well what aunty and dad were up to didn't
you!." Mbuyi asks her and she shakes her
head looking scared. " I know you Asanda.
Lumka did say that you have been talking
to aunt and allot. You knew what they were
planning."
" I only know that they got the poison from
Alice. She's the one who organised it from
someone who lives in Cape Town. He met
aunty wami at the airport and gave it to her
there. That's all I know I swear!." Alice looks
like she's about to faint.
" I knew you were always like our mother.
Evil like her. You knew our dad and aunty
wanted to kill their sister yet you said
nothing Asanda nothing!." Mthunzi shouts
at her.
" If aunty sebe dies. Just know that you also
have a hand in her death." Mbusi tells her.
" What do you have to say for yourself
Alice?."
" Nothing. Asanda is lying. I know nothing
about the poison. Busani's mother told me
to come here because she wanted me to do
something. She told me she will take
mbuso's wife to the spa. I will stay behind
with mbuso and drug him then have sex
with him. I will have to record the whole
thing so we will have proof. I will show it to
his wife who will then divorce him." These
bitches are crazy.
" Where did you get the guns?." I ask her.
" Jason's mom said she got them from her
brother." Oh this fucker better be glad his
sons begged for his life.
" and what would have gained Alice by
doing that?. What about Busani?." Bonga
asks her.
" I wouldn't have gotten anything and
besides Busani doesn't want me. He..."
" You shut that lying mouth of yours before I
put a bullet in that stupid brain." It's not her
business to say what busani is.
" Do you have anything to tell us owami?."
" I am your mother mbuso!."
" You might have given birth to me but you
are not and never will be my mother!. I
already have a mother. My wife was right.
Sebe should have stolen my brother too."
" I am so sorry my son. I swear I was going
to make it right between you and your
father!."
" when?. When you have killed your twin
sister? When exactly Owami because the
last time I checked you have a family." She
stops crying and looks at me.
" What are you talking about?." She talks as
if she never cried.
" Don't play dumb with me." she stands up
laughs and claps her hands.
" Yeah you got me. Did they tell you?."
" No they didn't. I did my homework when
you got here."
" Damn you are as smart as they said you
are. You know I made sure that all of them
don't tell you about them but I didn't think
you would actually think you would go and
snoop around my business." She laughs
again.
" What is he talking about Owami? You
have another family?." My mother has been
silent the whole time. She's now looking at
my dad who socked.
I look to my left and I see sbu frank and
Luh's aunt coming in. They are followed by
a man and beautiful young girl. My half
sister. When she sees me she smiles. runs
to me and hugs me. She thinks I'm busani. I
can hear Owami cursing.
" You son of a bitch!." she says to me.
" Oh my God I missed you. You all just left
and never explained." I hug her tight. I wish
we didn't have to meet like this.
" Honey?." owami husband goes to her and
hugs her. The whole house is quiet. It is
tense.
" You are married?...." My dad breaks the
silence. " and you didn't tell me?."
" Mom?. she goes to her mother and hugs
her too. She turn and looks at me. Her eyes
go around the room and that's when she
sees everyone including busani. Her eyes
come back to again the back at busani.
" wait?....Mom what is going on?. My
brother is a twin?."
" Sweetie sit down. I'll explain."
" Owami I asked you a question. You are
fucken married and you didn't tell me?."
" I was going to tell you after I divorced
him."
" What?." Her husband says. " What do you
mean when you have divorced me and who
is this?."
" Hi. I'm mbuso the one you talked to on the
phone. Your wife is my birth mother That's
her twin sister and that is our father. "
" What?. You are a twin Jason is a twin too
and you never told me?. Why?."
" I didn't think I was ever going to find them
again."
" Oh my God stop with your lies! Are you
not tired?!."
" Shut up Mbuso. Honey lets go to the hotel
and I will explain everything to you." owami
says to her husband. Dad is still shocked.
" No. You need to explain to us why you hid
my other brother from me mother and your
sister. You have been lying to us for years."
" You will understand once I explain to you.
Lets go."
" No. Angel is staying here with us. She’s
not going anywhere." Busani says. Angel
goes to her and hugs him. I guess she
could tell from how we talk.
" That is my daughter and she's leaving with
me. I'm done with all of you and I don't
fucken care if sebe dies or not but she
deserves it and I hope you do die and burn
in hell."
"Wow mom she looks exactly like you. Even
Jason and his twin. Wow!. Mom am I a twin
too?."
" No!." both her parents say. Owami's
husband is devastated. He even sits down
" Angel lets go make you something to eat.
I'm sure your hungry and tired." my wife
says.
CHAPTER 96
UMSHADO.
CHAPTER 96
LUNGI.
I knew my husband was hurting but I didn't
think it was this deep. His mother has really hurt
him and I am so angry at her. She doesn't
deserve him and I am glad she is out of our
lives. He's holding me tight and I can feel how
vulnerable he is. Even though he's not making a
sound he is crying. His head is on my chest his
shoulders are shaking and he keeps sniffing. I
hate that my husband is hurting like this and I
never want him to feel that way. I wipe my tears
and kiss bald head.
I kneel down and make his look at me. His eyes
are closed shut. I wipe his tears and kiss his
whole face like how I do to my boys when I'm
showering them with my kisses. I palm his face.
" Look at me?." he opens his eyes and you can
see how hurt he is. " I'm so sorry they hurt you.
I'm sorry your birth mother doesn't care about
you or even realise what an amazing person you
are. She missed an opportunity to know this
amazing man that I love. She doesn't deserve
you your love and to be even your called your
mother. It's her loss my love and you gained
nothing from her. One day she is going to look
back and realise how much she hurt you and
how bad she messed up okay?." she nods.
" She could have had our love. Her grandkids
love but she didn't care about that. That's all on
her and not on you. You were the victim in here
from both of them and you didn't deserve it my
love no matter how perfect your life turned out
to be. Your birth mother had an opportunity to
get to know her son and grandchildren but she
chose not to. You will not cry for the
relationship your never had for her. You will not
cry for a woman who doesn't care about you.
You don't know that woman and you will not
waste your tears on her. Don't give her that
power over your life because she is not worth it
my love. I am here. Your children are here and
the whole family. Even your mother who
changed your life is her and she loves you too.
Have you ever felt like there was something
missing in your life. Before and after you found
out the truth?." He wipes his tears takes a
handkerchief and blows his nose.
" Before I met you I felt incomplete but that
changed when I met you and fell in love with
you and I never felt incomplete ever again."
" That's all that matters. Your life is complete
with everything you love and care for. You will
not drop another tear because of her. Ever.
Promise me you won't."
" I promise I will."
" I love you." I tell him.
" I love you." I kiss him.
" I'm going to run you a bath then make you
something to eat while you're in bed and then
you will sleep. I know it's going to be hard but
tomorrow you will wake up and move on." He
smiles.
" I don't know what I would do without you.
Thank you for everything."
" We are in this together and I will always be
here. I am doing my job as your wife to take
care of you. How do you feel since you let it all
out." He takes a deep breath.
" I feel better love. It doesn't hurt as much." I
smile.
" You see why as women we like to cry when
we are hurt? Because we feel better after a good
cry." He grins I laugh. " Are you going to start
crying from now on?.' He throws his head back
and laughs. I suck in my breath and look at him.
My husband has think of when he laughs the tip
of his tongue would stick out the back in and I
love it. He is so handsome.
I get up to go to the bathroom when his phone
rings and he ignores it.
" Are you not going to answer it?."
" I just want to rest love. That call can wait and
if it's important they will leave a message." he
says and lays on the bed looking up. The phone
rings again. He takes out of his pants and gives
it to me. I have answered his phone calls many
times and this is no different. I look at the
screen and it's mbuyiselo. I frown.
" Hello?."
" Luh?..."
" Yes it's me. What's wrong?." He sounds like
he was running and there is so much noise
where he is.
" There was an accident. The car just came out
of nowhere and hit them." He's talking so fast
but i hear what he is saying then I hear
the police sirens. I put the phone on speaker.
" Love listen." my husband sits up.
" Mbuyiselo who got into an accident?."
" They were all in the car oh God! The car just
hit them."
" Who was in the car mbuyi talk."
" My father aunty owami her husband then
Alice and Angela." what?
" Oh my God!." I say and hold my head.
" No Angela is here. She didn't leave with
owami." he says looking at me.
" She was mbuso. Owami took her by force and
left with her. The car hit them and.....We are on
our way to the hospital now! Please come I will
send you the location. Mbuyiselo hangs up. My
husband sighs.
" I asked them to leave her behind."
" I left her in the living room eating when I
came here. Owami must have came back and
took her. Oh my God mbuso what if this is the
death that is coming. Someone dying?." He gets
up and takes my hand.
" I will only be hurt if Angela dies. The rest of
them I don't care. Fuck my brother." I nod.
Busani is going to be crushed if he already
knows.
When we get into the living room it seems like
everyone already knows. My father in-law is
hugging Busani who is crying. I don't see my
mother in-law anywhere. I think she went to her
bedroom.
" He just sent me the hospital they are in. Lets
go." my husband says.
" I don't think I'm needed there. I'll stay here at
home and you will let me know how things are.
I want to check on Mah.
" Ok love." He gives me a kiss.
" I'm going to go with them just in case." My
aunt says.
" Thank you aunty." All of them leave including
my dad.
This day has just been too much for all of us and
now this happens. God I hope nothing happens
to Angela. I wanted to go to the hospital but
something is preventing me from going there
and I don't know why. I go outside and help sis
nonto pack the remaining things back to the
boxes until we are done.
I keep checking my phone hoping to hear from
my husband cause it's been an hour since they
left. We put the boxes in the garage and then we
go to the kitchen and I help them wash the
dishes. Sis tried to stop be but I couldn’t cause
my mind was just too pre-occupied and I have
this dreading feeling of something. Like
something really bad is going to happen. What
could be worse than them being in the hospital
though. I guess it's them dying.
I make tea then sit down. The nanny comes
with sboniso and he runs to me when he sees
me. I sit him infront of me in the kitchen island
and look at him. He's watching me too and not
saying anything. I kiss him and he laughs. Next
week is their birthday and I haven't even
planned what I'm going to do. They have never
had a birthday party before and they deserve it.
I take his food from his nanny and feed him. He
eats until he's done.
" Baby?."
" Mommy."
" Are you okay?." he nods. " Are you sick?."
He shakes his head.
" Where's his brother?."
" He's playing sis lungi. He said he wasn't
hungry." I nod. My phone rings and it's my
husband.
" baby?." He sighs then keeps quiet. " How bad
are they?." sboniso tries to take my phone but I
give him to his nanny.
" They died." Oh my God!
" They? Who died?."
" All of them excluding Alice and Mr Bloom."
" What? Angela died too?.... Oh my God!."
" They declared her dead on the scene. Fanele
died on his way to the hospital and Owami just
died now."
" Oh my God love. I'm sorry you never got the
opportunity to know your sister."
" It's okay love. These things happen. I'll see
you when we are done here."
" Let me know if we can help with anything."
" Ok love." I hang up and sigh. I didn't realise
that mu sisters are here.
" What happened?." Sims asks.
" Owami Fanele Alice Owami's husband and
Angela were involved in an accident. Angela
died at the scene Fanele on his way to the
hospital and Owami has died too. Just now. Mr
Bloom and Alice are the only survivors." Oh
God!.
" Who is Angela and Mr Bloom?."
" Mbuso and Busani's half sister. Mr Bloom is
Owami's husband. They arrived tonight from
London and they were here before Owami left
with them."
" What? Owami was married and she had a
daughter?." Sims asks. They are all speechless.
" What are we going to do now?."
" I don't know. Fanele's wife is back home I'm
sure they have already told her. Since Owami
was still married to her husband he's the one
who's going to decide what happens. If they will
buried here or in London." They nod.
" Well for me. I'm not sorry Owami and Fanele
died." Sims says.
" How is Busani?." Lesogo asks.
" I think he's a mess. He loved his mother and
sister and has just lost both of them. I can't
imagine what he's going through."
" Where is uMah?." Sims asks.
" In her bedroom. I have to go and tell her and I
don't know how she's going to react."
" I don't think she will care." Lindo says.
" She might blame herself though."
" Maybe we should wait and have your husband
tell her." Sims says.
" He had a long day and I don't want him to be
the one who tells her cause I don't how he might
react even though he said he doesn't care about
Owami."
" What happened when Fanele came?." Sims
asks.
" A whole lot. I will tell you but not now."
" I guess we have to wait then." Lesego says.
" Or we begin to bake." Lindo suggests.
serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New
Roman"">" Or we begin to bake." Lindo
suggests.
" I think we need to relax and wait for them
to come back. We all had a long day. We
will bake tomorrow." She nods.
We all sit in silence thinking. The time now
is 10 pm and they are still not back. Maybe
I should have left with my husband but he
did promise me that he will tell me if they
need anything. I get up and drink water
then sit down. I don't feel good and I don't
know what is wrong.
All the kids are now sleeping in the house.
Mah has been in her bedroom for long. I
don't know if she's sleeping or she knows
what happened to her siblings. It doesn't
look like they are going to be back at any
moment so maybe I should tell her what
happened. I just hope she won't blame
herself.
I knock on her door and wait for an answer.
The room is dead quiet. I knock again and
still there's no answer. I grab the handle
and push the door open and it does. Her
room is dark. I switch on the light and she's
on the bed sleeping. I close the door and
walk in. I take the throw blanket and cover
her with it. She stirs and looks at me.
" Take me to my house lungi."
" Mah?."
" Take me to my house now." Her voice
sounds different and weird.
" It's late mah. I will take you home
tomorrow. I promise."
" No. Take me how now." She gets up and
begins to wear her clothes. She takes her
bag and looks at me. " Take me home now
lungi." My heart skips a beat. It beats so
fast I feel like it's going to burst out of my
ribcage.
" Gogo Zikalala. Is that you?." That's her
voice and the way the room
" Take me home." She says. " We are
running out of time. Lets go before it is too
late." what?
" Uhm Ok. Let me tell my sisters that we
have to leave."
" If you tell her she's going to lose the baby.
We are running out of time."
What the hell is going on and what does
she mean we are running out of time?.
Does she know that her brother and sister
have passed on and now maybe she's
losing her mind. I am so confused I don't
know what to do. My phone rings and it's
Sbani.
" Hey sis."
" Mzukulu."
" Gogo Xulu? "
" Take your mother and leave now. Take
her to her house. I will see you tomorrow."
" Gogo what is going on" Why is she
sounding like she's gogo Zikalala? " I can
hear her breath hitching.
" Leave now nokukhanya. Call me when
you get there.” She hangs up.
“ Mah can you find your way to the
garage?. ” she nods. “ ok go there. I’m
coming. ” we leave the bedroom. Thank
God the house is huge and they won’t see
us leaving. I end up following Mah cause I
don’t trust that she can make her way there
on her own.
I am freaking out my hands are literally
shaking. I take my phone and send Lindo
an SMS telling her to meet me at the
garage and not say anything to anyone. I
help mah get in the car and fasten her
seatbelt. I look at her and she’s not there at
all. I can only feel gogo's energy. Lindo
comes to me and she’s frowning.
“ sis luh what’s wrong?. You are shaking so
badly.”
“ get in the car and drive us to
Pietermaritzburg. We have to go now
hurry.”
“ ok let me go get my hand back. My drivers
license is there.”
“ Bring mine too. Hurry.”
I get in the back seat with mah and hold her
hand. It is so soft like it’s a baby's hand. It is
so small like I can break it with my one
hand. Lindo comes in running. She gets in
the car and drives out our of the garage.
“ I can’t believe you are letting me drive
your M6 sis luh.” She’s so excited..
“ Lindo you better step on that accelerator I
don’t care how many laws we break. Do
you hear me?. ” she nods.
I take my phone and send lesego a
message telling her that we have left for
Pietermaritzburg and ask her to not let sims
out of her sight. They will drive down
tomorrow too. I explain that gogo xulu
asked me to take her there and not tell sims
anything. I make a call to aunt lwethu.
“ Hello Sisi injanu?. ”
“ Are you still awake aunty?. ”
“ yes I am. What’s wrong?. ”
“ We are on our way there. I’ll explain when
I get there. ”
“ Ok khanyo.” I hang up and sigh.
I pull Mah's head to my chest and let her lay
her head on me. I am so scared and I want
my husband here. Mah keeps mumbling
stuff I can’t make sense of. My girl steps in
on that accelerator and drives. Within the
30 minutes we are in Pietermaritzburg. We
drive to their house. She drives in and
parks the car.
Aunty comes out of the house running.
“ lungi what’s wrong?.”
“ help me take mah to her bedroom.”
“ Sisi what’s wrong? Why does she look like
this luh?. ”
“ Aunty help me please!.”
We carry her to her bedroom and lay her on
her bed and she sighs.
“ What is wrong with her?. ” I try to explain
but I just burst into tears. Lindo tells her
what she heard at the lunch.
I call gogo xulu and she picks up.
“ take a white candle and red one. The
sage bowl will be in the middle. On your
right you will light the white candle and on
your left the red one. You will light the white
one then red one then you will ask your
ancestors to forgive your mother and to
please allow her to pass through and
welcome her spirit. Do you understand
me?. ” I nod through my tears but then I
remember she doesn’t hear me.
“ yebo gogo.”
“ If the smoke of the sage goes up they will
accept her but if it doesn’t then we will ask
them again. Do it now.”
“ She is going to die isn’t she?. ”
“ You already know that. I will see you
tomorrow.” She hangs up.
“ I heard everything. Lindo you are not yet
the bride and you can’t be here. Go to the
living room and we will call you when we
are done.”
“ yebo aunty.”
She goes to the closet and comes back
with the candles and sage. She gives me
mah's scarf and I cover my shoulders. We
kneel and I put the candles the way she
asked me and light them then light the
sage. At first first it doesn’t want to burn the
second time it burns but the smoke dies
down.
“ Luh I know you are scared. Take a deep
breath and talk to them. They will listen to
you sisi.” I nod.
I light the sage again and this time it burns
but the smoke goes side ways and not
straight up. I begin to pray our father who
art in heaven and mah joins me. When we
are done I begin to say our clan names and
apologize on behalf of her her husband her
children and everyone she has ever hurt. I
ask them to allow her to be with them and
her maker. I ask them to not cast her aside
like she doesn’t belong with the Gumede or
Zikalala ancestors. I ask them to not make
her suffer anymore and forgive her. I ask
them that as she transitions may she have
a painless and light experience. My tears
won’t stop falling as I plead with them and
finally the smoke shoot a straight up.
I get up and leave the candles there and go
to her bed. She looks so beautiful like I
have never seen her looking this way. Her
face is relaxed and her chest is moving up
and down slowly. I take her hand again and
it’s not as warm like it was before. Aunty
joins me on the bed and sits on her other
side.
“ Mah?.....Mah?. ”
“ She’s sleeping.”
“ I can hear you..” she turns and lays on her
back.. I don’t know if it’s the poison but she
is losing weight drastically.
“ Call them. Tell everyone to be here at
home.” Aunty and I look at each other. “ I
need to say goodbye to them and know that
I leave this earth with their forgiveness. Call
them. They are waiting for me.”
“ I can’t… I can’t call them and tell them…
that you are dying. I can’t mah. ” I lay my
head on her chest and cry. She pats my
back with her frail hand.
“ I’ll call them.” Aunty says getting up. The
door opens and I look up its her sons
including Busani and their father.
“ Aunty what is going on?. Mah?.” They
walk in closer and stop. Just a step away
from the bed.
“ Zipho. Come here.” She says. Zipho
begins to cry. I get up and he sits where I
was. I go to my husband and cry on his
chest. His heart is beating so fast.
“ My last born son. Who’s gentle and kind.
When we had you I had hoped you would
be a girl but God had other plans for us. I
love you so very much gcino. God will bless
you and your wives. He will give you
everything you have ever wanted and
needed. You are blessed to have those
woman because they love you very much.
Before I leave I want you to know that I love
you very much my son and I ask that you
forgive me for all I did wrong to you.”
Zipho cries. He sobs on his mother chest
crying loud.
“ I forgive you mama. I wish you wouldn’t
have to die so you can grow old and see all
your grandchildren but if this tour time then
I hope your journey will be filled with light.”
He hugs her tight and kisses her. “ I love
you.” He gets up and leaves the room.
“ Bonga come to me son.” Bonga shakes
his head. “ Please.” He walks to her and
takes her hand. He doesn’t sit but they look
at each other for long.
“ when luh talked earlier it’s like she knew
you were going to leave us. She asked us
to open our hearts say what we wanted to
say and forgive. I did that with you and I
told you I forgive you Ma. You did apologize
and I heard you. You will always be the
best mother to all of us. Rest Ntombi.”
“ Take care of somphiwe and all your
children. Tell her I love her very much.
She’s really a true Gumede wife and
mother. Tell her I’m sorry I never saw that
at the beginning but then I did and I’m sorry
it took me this long. Your sons are
Gumede’s bonga and they have to take
your surname. I don’t want them growing up
and feeling like they are not part of this
family fully because of their surnames.
Promise me you will change it? ”
“ I will Mah.” he kisses her cheek and goes
somewhere in the room.
“ Busani?.” She lifts her hand to him. He
goes takes it and sits.
“ I guess our deal is off. ” she tries to laugh
but she’s struggling. “ I wish I had gotten to
know you better before all of this happened.
I had hoped we would build a relationship
and I will be your other mother too but as
always we don’t get what we want. You
have a family now. You will never ever be
alone in this world. All of these people in
here and some not here are your family and
there’s nothing they won’t do to see you
happy loved and protected. I will watch over
you and your family from the other side.
Your mother and sister are waiting for me.
She has forgiven me and I hope you forgive
me too.”
“ When the doctor told us that my mother
was dead it hurt. It really did because she
was the only parent I ever knew but then I
told myself that at least you are still have. I
have another mother that I can cry to when
I need to but your also leaving me and it’s
okay.. It will be hard but we will pull
through.” He kisses her forehead. “ I forgive
you mother. Say hello to them on the other
side.” Mah cries.
My husband goes to her and wipes her
tears.
“ My lovely mbuso. You have grown to be
this wonderful man husband and father I
always knew you could be. Who knew that
bringing Luh into our lives will change you
this much and our whole family?. You smile
and laugh more. I am so proud to call you
my son. All of you changed your lives for
the better and it’s because of the woman
who love you. There are many things I
regret in my life but being a mother to you is
not one of them. Thank you for loving me
and always respecting me as your mother
even after everything that happen. Thank
you my boy for also giving me beautiful
grandchildren. I love them. ” My husband
wipes his tears and nods. I go to her and
take her hand.
“ This family hit a jackpot when we married
you luh. You didn’t just marry your husband
you married all of us. I am sorry you had to
go through tough times because of me and
my mistakes. You have sacrificed the most
in this family more than us andI must say I
don’t know how you did it sometimes.
I grateful and thankful that they chose you
to be part of this family because they knew
we needed you and one else. I’m thankful
that when I leave my family will be taken
care of by you. You are their mother now
luh. They will come to you or aunty when
they news something. Keep being the glue
of this family and keep holding it like how
you are doing even though it is hard but
what you’re doing for this family khanyo
doesn’t go unnoticed by those who live in
this world and those who have passed. My
beautiful first born daughter. Ngiyakithanda
kakhulu. You will be blessed sthandwa
sam. Do you remember the conversation
we had at your house?.”
“ I do Mah.”
“ Do that my child. Make sure your sister
doesn’t stress and she’s taken care of.” I
nod.
“ Sisi?. ”
“ I’ll take care all of them Sisi. Wena
Phumula Ntombi.” They hug each other
tight and they cry. I hide my face on
mbuso's cheat and cry.
“ no crying love. We knew it was coming.
We just didn’t expect it will be her.” He
whispers in my ear.
My father in-law goes to her and holds her.
He tells her he forgives her and hopes she
will forgive him too. He cries too for his wife
who’s leaving him forever.. He won’t get to
see her ever

LUNGI.
The ambulance came and they took her to the
hospital. Aunty mbuso and his dad. They came
back 2 hours later and they said the doctor told
them to come back tomorrow morning to get the
Post-mortem and the death certificate. We had
to call the other extended family members and
the house is full. Baba went to the other
bedroom and locked himself there. The elders
told us to give him space. I am so tired and I
want to sleep.
My husband takes my hand and we walk to our
bedroom. We undress then get in bed and he
spoons me.
“ are you sleeping love?. ”
“ I’m tired baby. You want us to talk?.” He
nods. I turn and face him.
“ Mr Bloom decided that he’s going to bury his
wife and Angels back in London. He said that’s
what they talked about if it happened that she
died and also he feels like South Africa took
them away from him. Busani wanted them
buried here and we tried to talk to him but he
wouldn’t listen. Busani Asanda Lumka and
Amanda’s mother with Mabutho will be flying
back to London with them. The funeral will be
on Monday.”
“ So we have to leave tomorrow too with them.”
“ Sbu offered us their family plane. We will. Fly
back again tomorrow after the funeral.”
“ and your uncle?. ”
“ Mbuyiselo called me when we were in
hospital and said his wife decided that he will be
hurried in Thursday. So they come here for
Mah's funeral on Saturday.”
“ This is really a dark time for this family. So
many people lost on one night?. ”
“ I know baby. I kind of feel responsible for
Angela’s death you know. If I didn’t fly them
here then she would still be alive. She wouldn’t
be dead.”
“ No you’re wrong. You asked them to leave her
behind and Owami being her took her daughter
by force. Her death is not on you okay?. ”
“ ok love.”
“ I’m must worried about how sims is going to
take it.”
“ She’ll be fine baby. How did you get here?. ”
I tell him everything that happened and what
gogo xulu told me to do. I am still wrapping my
head around the whole thing.
“ Thank God you were there love. You really
are the glue of this family. ”
“ I’m tired of all the bad things that are
happening. I really am. I am literally exhausted.
”
“ after all the funerals. I am taking you and our
kids on a holiday. We really need it. ”
“ can we bring the nannies?. ”
“ Or we can send sis nonto to your dads house
with the nannies so they can play grandma and
grandpa.” he says.
“ I like that idea and it will force them to finally
talk.” I can’t wait for that.
“ And the boys can enjoy being in the farm.
They love it there.”
“ I’m going to miss her.” I yawn.
“ me too love. Sleep baby tomorrow we have a
long day too.”
One Week Later.

The last week was one of the hardest and

longest weeks of our lives. Baba left after being
cleansed and no one seems to know where he is
but one know my husband knows where his
father is at. Sims didn’t react the way we
thought she would. It was just us three when she
said she’s not sad that the old died. She hated
sims for no apparent reason and only apologized
when her secret was exposed. I was shocked but
I understood where she was coming from and I
don’t blame her cause that is the truth. I could
have told that had Mah died in my house she
would have lost the baby but I didn’t. I didn’t
want her to feel bad and think many things and
it didn’t matter anymore.
All the funerals were hard and draining. Angel's
family and friends came and they were really
hurt. They explained that she was excited to
spend some time here in South Africa with us.
They were shocked to see busani and my
husband that they were identical twins. We all
flew back again and we only spent a day in
Pietermaritzburg then we left for Ermelo to bury
Fanele. His wife chased all of us Gumede's and
we had to stay at the hotel and just attend the
funeral I’m the morning.
Mbuyiselo’s mother was the 2.0 version of
Owami. Apparently those two were thick as
thieves. She cried and blamed baba for Obama’s
death. Lumka was hurt shame and I felt for her.
If I can make one wish. I would wish for Angela
to come back again but life doesn’t work like
that. Fanele's wife also kicked out Mbuyi's
mother at her house because they don’t get
along. Mah’s funeral was emotional. We didn’t
go to church cause we had to stay home and
make sure the food and everything is fine.
Mbuso wanted us to find people who will cater
but we said no. The Gumede family is huge.
Between us and their cousins and uncles wives
we thought we would manage but we didn’t
because many people kept coming to offer their
condolences. We ended up finding a caterer late
Thursday night and because the money was
good. She jumped and didn’t ask any questions.
The cows were offered by my family the
Ngcobo's. The house was so full with people
coming in and out like it was a wedding and not
a funeral. Sims was the one sitting on the
mattress with aunty and other extended family
members. I would also go there when people
would come to offer their condolences and sit
with her for a while. She was close to losing her
mind.
My boys were so handsome dresses in their little
tux and they left with their dads to the church
where Mah's funeral was being held. My aunties
from my family and cousins also came to lend a
hand. The people that were working with my
husband and all the Gumede men came. Their
business partners and people they do business
with came and the envelopes they left was too
much. What was surprising to us was that
Lesgo's family showed up. Like all of them and
I saw gogo Xulu talking to Lesego and I think
she was calming her down. Sims baby daddies
also came too and Sims was shocked. They said
they were there on behalf of their sons because
they did say their grandmother died. That was
mature of them and I think it’s because mbuso
and bonga got them much more paying jobs.
I only slept Thursday night only and on Friday
and Saturday I didn’t sleep at all. My body was
tired and my feet were aching but I had to make
sure that Mah gets the dignified send of she
deserves and asked me of. She loved me and I
loved her. She was my mother and the
grandmother of my kids. Friday afternoon when
she was brought home they cried. I didn’t. I
didn’t have anymore tears and I was drained.
Baba was like a walking corpse. A zombie. He
wasn’t talking to anyone. He will only nod
when I gave him his food and that was it. It hurt
to see him like that.
Mah had a beautiful send of. Sims said it was
then that she cried when she heard how people
spoke about her but she was still not sad that she
died. Some at the food we cooked and some at
what the caterers prepared. My husband was
with men I have never seen before and most of
them looked like they won’t from South Africa.
He kept looking at me and I knew soon he’s
going to force me to go and sleep so I made sure
I’m not anywhere where his eyes will find me.
He left with them and came back smelling of
Bourbon. He wasn’t drunk but tipsy. The last
time my husband was drunk was when we were
in Italy after the twins were born. I was afraid
that he was going to drink himself into a coma
but he didn’t. When he came back he looked for
me and took us to bed.
We are in Ladysmith at out house. Busani is
currently living with us but he said he’s looking
for a place to stay. I don’t want him to leave yet
cause he’s still hurting and he needs everyone
close to him. My husband agreed too. He only
agreed and said he will just stay for a few
months then after he finds a house close he will
move in to his place. We left him in Durban
cause that’s what he wanted.
We will be driving to O.R Tambo International
Airport. I don’t know where we are going to
because my husband said it is a surprise. I asked
him if I must buy winter clothes or summer
clothes and he just said we’ll buy them when we
her there. I am so excited and I can’t wait.
“ When are you two coming back?. ” my sad
asks.
“ I don’t know dad but I am going to miss you
though. ” she smiles. “ Are you sure you will be
fine with the kids?. ”
“ luh they are my grandchildren nonto is here
your and their nannies. I still think though they
should go on a leave maybe for just three days
then they will come back. Plus your sisters
nokuthula called me and said she’s going to be
spending a week here with the kids. We will
manage my child.”
“ Ok dad but you will call if anything happen. ”
“ I will not. Luh baby you deserve this holiday
more than anyone. You have been through so
much and this is what you and your husband
need.”
“ I know daddy. I just hope we have passed
through the hard time of our marriage and now
is the time for us to really enjoy it and be
happy.”
“ It is your time now. Your mother would be
very proud of the wonderful woman you have
grown up to. You are a mother and a wife. Your
husband loves you very much and he makes you
happy. That’s all what parents wish for their
children. I am proud of you.”
“ Thank you daddy. ” I hug him and kiss his
bold head. He laughs.
“ can I ask you something?.”
“ I’m not getting involved dad. ”
“ But you don’t know what I want to ask. ”
“ you messed up and now you have to figure out
how you are going to win her heart dad. You
brought Ursula even after gogo Xulu talked to
you dad. You broke her heart.”
“ I messed up neh?. ”
“ you did but I know you’ll figure out a way to
win her heart back again. ”
“ I don’t think I’m good at this dating thing.”
“ Dad you are a handsome man. I’m sure you
still have it in you to charm her skirt of oh God
not like that but you know what I mean.” He
laughs. “ look dad if you really are various with
her then maybe you need to surprise her and
send a letter to her family. ” he smiles.
“ that might work luh. Thank you my child. I
hope she won’t be angry at me.”
“ she might be upset that maybe you didn’t talk
to her first but I think she’ll get over it and be
happy. She has to see that you love her and you
want her in your life.” He nods.
“ where’s your husband?. ”
“ He took the boys to the farm.”
“ I can’t wait to take them to milk the cows. ” I
laugh.
“ have you two talked about trying for another
baby?. ”
serif">“ have you two talked about trying for
another baby?. ”
“ ha baba. ” we both laugh.
“ What? After losing your child I thought
maybe you’ll ne you know trying again. I
want many grandchildren luh. ”
“ you already have 4 grandchildren and plus
why aren’t wait asking your son when are
they having more children. ”
“ I asked him and he said he’s working on
it.” I shake my head.
“ well I would love to have another child but
that will happen on it’s own dad. Don’t
worry.”
“ Tell me I’ll be first to know when you’re
pregnant. ” I smile and look down. “ Luh?. ”
“ Baba. ”
“ Is there something you want to tell me?. ” I
smile. “ Are you pregnant baby?. ”
“ I did a test by this morning and it said
positive. Dad I haven’t told my husband so
please let’s keep it between us. Don’t tell
anyone else until have finished my third
trimester. ”
He gets up and pulls me to him. He hugs
me tight and kisses my forehead. I feel his
cheeks getting wet.
“ Dad are you crying?.. I’m just pregnant
that’s all. ”
“ I’m crying cause I’m happy. The family is
growing and something beautiful came out
of this whole mess. Thank you.” My dad is
making me feel emotional.
“ I’m happy too dad.” Gogo Zikalala might
have known that I was already pregnant or
about to when she blesses my womb. I’m
just thankful that I will carry my baby and
I’m hopeful too that I won’t lose her or him.
“ your husband is going to be so happy. ”
“ I know. I’m going to tell him when we are
wherever we’re going.”
“ I promise I won’t tell anyone.” I wipe his
tears.
“ Is he going to leave the boys at the farm?.
”
“ He is so that way he can leave without
them knowing. I didn’t want to say goodbye
cause I knew I would cry and take them
with us.”
“ ok baby. I have to go now. Call me when
you land wherever you’re going.”
“I will call everyday dad don’t worry. ”
“ I love you. ”
“ I love you too.” He kisses my cheek and
leaves.
I finish packing the bag containing our
clothes. I shower and I pack winter and
summer clothes. Our passports are ready
and now I’m waiting for him to shower and
change so we can drive down to Joburg. I
make myself a cold meat sandwich and eat.
My husband walks in after a while. He sits
and sighs.
“ what’s wrong?. ”
“ the boys could sense that I was leaving
them behind. When I was talking to your in
the house those little rascals were out side
the car waiting for me so we can leave.
Luckily your dad came and when they saw
him they forgot about me and I got in the
car and drove off. When I looked back I saw
them running after the car crying. It was
hard. I almost drove back but then I thought
I wouldn’t have you all to myself. ” I smile.
“ you’re really hungry neh?. ”
“We have to leave in an hour baby and yes
I am hungry. Please go shower so we can
leave. ”
“ come shower with me.”
“ I have already showered and if I go in
there with you we’ll ne late and miss our
flight.”
“ you’re right. I’ll be done in in a few.”
“ Your clothes are on the bed.” He kisses
my forehead and goes to shower.
“ I hope you won’t make me eat too much
baby. I can’t wait to tell daddy about you.” I
brush my non existent belly.
I finish eating and wash my plate. I hope my
husband is taking me somewhere warm
where I’ll get to wear my bathing suit or just
walk around the house naked. I made sure I
did a little shopping for sexy lingerie and
swimsuits.
“ love?. ” I turn and my breath hitches. This
man will never stop making me fall in love
with him blush and just make my knees get
weak. I walk up to him and kiss the living
day lights of him.
“ Look at me now baby I’m horny. ”
“ You look so handsome.”
“ I feel handsome.” He’s wearing nothing
fancy just his polo shirt and shorts from
Psycho Bunny and his All-star. “ and you
madam that dress is very dangerous. I
giggle. I’m wearing a yellow flowy bra less
summer dress that is above my knees. My
girls are out to play.
“ Are we going to have car sex on the way
love?. ”
“ If we leave now I might just let you hit it. ”
“ let’s go.” I laugh..
My cousin who stays in our house when we
are not here has his own key. We get in the
car and drive.
We chat listen to the music sing a long and
laugh. We stop in the road take pictures of
each other but he takes mine mostly. Gave
him a blow job while he was driving and he
loved it. Three hours later we are at O. R
International Airport. I can’t wait to hear
where we are going. I’ve been asking him
the entire time and he only told me I’m
going to love it.
“ what are we waiting for?. ” we are in the
car at the parking lot.
“ Nsele is coming to drive your car back to.
Durban.” We wait for five more minutes
then my husbands phone rings. “ Nsele?..
Ok I’m sending you my location.” He hangs
up and sends him where the direction of
where we parked. “ here he is love. Let’s
go. ” We step out of the car.
“ good afternoon Boss and Madam.” We
greet him back and he helps my husband
take out the bag I packed.
“ you’ll find my brother in the house. Give
him the keys and tell him not to drive my
wife’s cars.”
“ I will sir. Enjoy your holiday.”
“ Thank you.” We leave and he gets in the
car.
We walk in and go to the ticket agent.
“ Good afternoon. How may I help you.”
The lady says.
“ afternoon. Checking in for the flight to
Greece… ” he looks at me and my mouth
hangs open. “ Santorini.” I can’t help but
scream like crazy.
“ Oh my God baby!. We’re going to
Santorini?. ” I throw my arms around him
and kiss him. He laughs.
The agent directs us which gate to go
through. We do go to customs and they
check everything. I wonder why he didn’t
want us to fly private. Our flight is called
and we are flying first class. Oh my God
this feels like a dream. I am so happy right
and I’m still shocked. My husband listens to
me when I talk. I have been talking about
wanting to go to. Santorini and here I am on
my way there with him.
My God dreams do come true. He can’t
stop taking pictures of me and I loving it. I
send my sisters pictures and tell them
where I’m going and the messages that
follow are insane. I let them know that I’ll
talk to them when we land.
“ Thank you baby. Like Oh my God. ”
“ you deserve this and more.” I pull him and
we kiss.
“ Ladies and gentlemen. Please put in your
seat belts as we are about to take off.” The
flight attended says after introducing
herself. I clap my hands and I feel like a kid
on Christmas Eve. My husband chuckles
shaking his head.

#NotEdited
We took a connecting flight from South Africa
to Athens then we flew straight to Santorini.
Seeing the island with my own eyes was just
amazing. I cant wait to see the sunset and
sunrise in the morning. We have a car already
waiting for us to us to our hotel. The smile on
my face has left ever since we flew. I don’t
know how many times I thanked my husband.
As the car is driving taking us to the hotel I keep
looking outside seeing the beautiful lighting on
the streets since it’s already the evening. I can
see the beautiful blue skies and the full moon
shining bright on the see with its reflection. This
is heaven.
The car stops and another man opens our door.
My husband first steps out then he takes my
hand and help me step out too. My husband tips
the guy who was driving us and he leaves. We
follow the man that leads us to the reception.
We check in and they give is our key for the
next three days. Another beautiful white woman
comes and she takes us to our private hotel
room. He tips her the she closes the door. I walk
around the room and it is big beautiful and
breath taking. The bathroom has his and hers
vanity pure white marble everywhere. Our
bedroom is big and it looks so comfortable. I
won’t miss my bed at home. Everything in here
is pure white and the duvet looks so thick.
My husband is watching me this whole time and
I can’t stop laughing. I look at him then look at
the bed. I run to it and fall on my back and
laugh. He laughs too and joins me.
“ come and see the balcony.”
He takes my hand opens the double doors and
fresh cool air comes in. We walk outside and
You can see the sea and the full moon Shining.
“ We are going to watch the sun rise in the
morning from this view baby and our balcony
has privacy.” He stands behind and wraps his
arms around me and kisses my nape.
“ we can walk around naked eat our breakfast
and do many other wonderful things naked and
no one will see us.” I giggle.
“ And that Jacuzzi is so inviting. I can’t wait for
us to get in there naked and be on top of this
body.” He grins. There’s a knock in the door.
He walks back in our room. The lady comes
with a trolley and puts the plates on the table I
guess it’s our food and I see a bottle of
champagne. I haven’t planned how I’m going to
tell him we are expecting another little Gumede.
I know he’s going to be suspicious of I don’t
drink the champagne even though he doesn’t
want me to drink alcohol. I am hungry but I am
so jet lagged. The lady leave closing the door.
I walk back in and my husband pops the
champagne. He pours us two glasses. Damn. I
guess I have to tell him now.
“ love? ” I look at him. “ you’ve been looking at
the glass. Are you okay?. ”
“ I am. I don’t want to drink on an empty
stomach and I want to shower first. I’m tired
baby aren’t you?. ”
“ I am love but one glass won’t hurt. ”
“ let’s eat first.”
“ You’re right. Come and sit and madam. ” I
smile. He pulls the chair for me and I sit.
“ thank you baby.” He sits and removes the
clock. My mouth waters.
“ hmmm baked Salmon grilled Asparagus with
a salad on the side. You ordered this love?. ”
“ I did. You love it?. ”
“ I do. Your having mash potatoes and steak.
Really? ” he laughs.
“ I know you love that and you know I love
meat. We are both happy. Do you want some
water or juice?. ”
“ water is fine baby.” He pours it for me.
“ to us enjoying our holiday. ” he raises his
glass. I take mine.
“ To us being happy. Cheers.” We click our
glasses and I drink my water he drinks his
champagne. We enjoy the food and our
company. After we have late dinner we go to
shower and get in bed and sleep. That’s how
tired we are and we didn’t even switch our
phones back.
I feel so hot and sweaty. My body feels tingly
and I feel pressure between my thighs. Damn I
need to go and pee but it is so hard to get out of
bed. I open my eyes and look to my right and
my husband is deep in sleep. I slowly get out of
bed and go to the bathroom. I pee and sigh after
I’m done. I wipe myself and I realise I was wet.
I brush my teeth and decide to shower while
he’s still sleeping and I’ll order breakfast and
wake him up with it.
I shower quickly and when I’m done I wrap
myself with a towel. I use the phone from the
bathroom and place our order for breakfast. The
sun is going to rise soon and I want him to be
awake and see it. I leave the bathroom and now
he’s lying face up and he is snoring a little. I
open the balcony doors and fresh morning air
just hits my face. I drop the towel and let the air
caress my skin. I walk to our bed and slowly
remove the comforter until it is completely off
the bed. His dick is always semi erect and I love
it. I climb on the bed lay my body next to his
then grab his dick. He breathes out and I smile. I
jack it up twice and it grows.
The veins pop out around his dick. His
mushroom head is pink and shiny. It looks
beautiful and tasty. I move up and put my legs
on the either side of his. I lower my head down
lick his dickhead then swallow him whole. He
groans and calls my name. I bop my head up
and down sucking him deep. I feel him filling
my mouth as he grows. I feel his hands on my
head pressing it more down on him. I moan and
continue to suck him with tongue moving
around his dick then move to his balls and suck
them in my mouth. The skin feels so soft and
heavy. I go back to sucking that stick I love so
much and he curses. I open my eyes and watch
him and his watching me. I can feel his muscles
flexing as he is breathing in and out deeply.
He quickly pulls me up to him and we kiss like
we are in a hurry. Our teeth clash tongues seek
dominance against each other and his hands are
all over my body. I move my hands down and
grab his shaft. I look at him and smile then turn
around sheath myself down and he slips in.
After a week of not being intimate I don’t blame
myself for being this wet. My clit is pointing up
ready to be teased and my body is ready to
explode.
I turn and look at him and his eyes are on my
ass. I want him to watch it as I ride him reverse
cowgirl style. I balance my hands on his knees
and begin to move. Fuck he feels too deep this
way but I’m not going to stop. I ride him like
hell I make it clap and I spell his name and mine
moving my waist and hips. Our bodies are wet
and my legs begin to shake. I am close to
cumming. My husband pulls out and climbs off
the bed. He pulls my legs to the edge of the bed
and makes me get on all fours.
“ Look love the sun is about to rise.” I open my
eyes and we are both facing it. He pulls my ass
checks apart then I feel his hot tongue on my
coochie and he muffs me like crazy.
“ Oooohhhh Gooooood.” I grab the sheets.
He tongue fucks me his thumb is rubbing my
clit. His mouth goes from my pussy to my tight
ring and I scream.
“ Fuuuuuck I’m… . Oh God! I’m coming!. ” his
thumb runs gently on clit and his tongue in me. I
see fire works and explode screaming his name.
I feel his hard shaft entering me hard and he
fucks me through my orgasm. His hold on my
ass cheeks is so tight like he’s holding on for
dear life. His shaft moving in and out of me
hitting all muscles and nerves in my pussy has
me feeling high on cloud nine. He pulls my
body much more to the edge and his heavy sack
slaps against my clit. Oh this feels so fucken
good. He wraps his fingers around my throat
and thrusts in rougher and a scream escapes my
mouth because he’s hitting my g-spot over and
over again. I want to tell him I’m coming but I
can’t se to find the words because his thrusts are
knocking every breath out of my body. I
squeeze my vagina muscles contracting and
releasing them on his dick.
“ Oh Fuuuuuuuck! ” I can feel his about to come
cause he’s thrusts are getting more rougher
longer and faster. My body shakes and I
welcome my climax to take over and send me
over the edge. He wraps his other hand around
my waist when he sees my legs are failing to
support my body. I moan and squeeze my pussy
again and he comes to and feels me with his
wonderful warm seed. His whole weight falls
down on my back pinning me down on my
stomach.
We are so sweaty and our heart beats are
beating so fast like we were running.
“ look love. you missed watching the sun rise ”
he whispers on my ear. I shudder and my skin
gets covered in goose bumps.
“ You’re the one who made it hard for me to
watch it. It is beautiful though.” He kisses my
nape.
“ our food will get cold. Let me go take it. ” I
turn my head and look at how. He pecks my
cheek… . More than just a peck. He awakes my
body again with his kiss. I moan.
“ I’m not done with you. ” I make a mmmm
sound. He chuckles. He lifts his body up and
pulls out. His warm seed spills out and the cool
air caresses my skin. He helps me get in bed and
I lay facing up. I can still feel my skeleton
shaking. This man can fuck.
He goes to take the towel on dropped and wraps
it around his waist. I drool as I look at his sexy
lower abs and that v-thing shape that he has and
the tent that is visible. God what we would we
do without you and giving us such men?. Thank
you God for the men and for my husband who
knows how to please me by giving me endless
orgasms. I laugh to myself. I’m sure God
understands where coming from. He walks to
the door and unlocks it then opens it and pulls
the tray inside and locks the door again.
“ are you hungry?. ” I shake my head no. I’m
really not. He grins and drops the towel. He
walks to me and crawls on the bed separates my
legs and gets between my thighs. His hard shaft
is directly on my clit and between my stomach
and his.
“ good morning sthandwa sam.”
“ It is a really good morning indeed ”
“ Yes it is. I missed being woken up like this.”
He licks his lips.
“ well if you keep taking me to such places I’ll
do things to you that will leave you speechless.
”
“ mmm I love that. Let me in. ” he kisses me
deeply stealing my breath
“ Where? ” I breath
“ kwiphakade lami.” I laugh. “ lay on your side.
” I do.
He gets between my thighs scissors style and I
can feel his dick knocking outside the entry as
he’s rubbing it around me with his cum. He
pulls me to him and I know this is going to be
not so gentle. My right leg is on his shoulder he
rubs my clit again then plunges in slowly but
deep. Oh fuck this is amazing. He pulls almost
out then he thrusts in again so gentle sensual
and so damn sexy. His one hand is rubbing my
clit while the other one is holding my right leg
up and he is kissing my calf. I didn’t know that
that part of me is so sensitive.
His slow deep thrust and the feel of his hairy
legs on my stomach and ass is making my body
feel all sorts of emotions. I rub those thick
strong and Harry thighs that I love so much. I
love how he’s moving in and out of me. He’s
making love to me and my body. He pulls out
lays behind me and pulls my back close to his
chest. He lifts my leg again then thrusts in. His
right hand snakes around my shoulders to my
face and turns my head and the plunges down
his tongue in me.
Our bodies move as one as we do the ancient
old dance done by our forefathers and ancestors
before us. Our souls merge like it is our first
time making love like this and it feels like it. It
is intense like an inferno is going to burst out of
us. I can feel his love for me filling me in ways I
have never felt before. God what is happening.
My love for him intensifies with each stroke
kiss and touch. My body is ready to let go and
let the intense fire consume us. I climax and the
only words playing in my head are I love you. I
love. I love you. I feel his shaft in me expanding
moving and then his seed shoots out and goes to
my womb. If I wasn’t already pregnant I sure as
hell his seed would be fertilizing my egg right
now.
We stay like feeling each other and not talking.
Listening to the birds and the sea making noise.
I love being here. His hand moves from my leg
to my stomach and he brushes it. I know he’s
thinking the same thing I was thinking. I know
he’s hoping that I fall pregnant. I can’t wait to
tell him and see the look on his face. I love this
man.
We showered and had breakfast after that we
called home after changing the sim cards. Dad
said the twins were fine and enjoying the farm
when they went to it. He said they would ask
where we are and he’ll tell them we went to
town. The pictures I took and sent them to Sims
and Lesego had them feeling jealous. We left
the hotel and took a walk around the island and
it is so beautiful. The landscapes the people
around and the food in the restaurant was just
spectacular. I bought a few items for my sisters
and all the kids. I know they are going to love
them.
We came back took off our clothes and went to
sit on the balcony sunbathing. My husband
enjoyed moisturizing the sunscreen on my
naked body and I did too. Laying there naked
and watching his dick standing was worth every
rough stroke I have ever received. The next two
days in Santorini were absolutely amazing. He
rented a luxury boat and we spent the whole day
and night at the sea. We had our own captain
and staff working catering to our every move.
We swam in the sea until I was dead tired and
hungry. The room we slept it had an open roof
top and we watched the stairs shining bright. I
wished my kids were here to experience this but
I know one day we will come and experience it
together. I was going to miss this place a lot.
The next day we flew to Athens and travelled by
a luxury train from Athens to Venice “ The City
of Canals ” “ Athens floating City.” where we
stopped and stayed one day and spent the night.
We got on the boat and we took a tour around
the floating city and My God it was breath
taking. We walked at night and you would
swear it’s during the day because the restaurants
were still opened and people were enjoying their
food and wine that I wanted to taste so bad but I
couldn’t and I made every excuse you can think
of that I was staying off from the wine for
sometime and my man was happy to hear that.
We definitely had real Italian pizza and some
pasta. I am definitely coming back here again.
We had a Chauffeur that drove us from Venice
to Milan the next day and I was so excited cause
I knew why we were there. To shop until He
drops and that’s what I did. I brought myself
clothes basically a whole new wardrobe and I
wonder if my husband saw that the clothes I was
buying were maternity clothes. All he kept
saying was that he’s happy I was spending his
money without a care in the world. I brought my
sisters bags shoes dresses and coats. I brought
sis nonto a beautiful designer dress and a had
too. I bought my nannies and my other
housekeeper designer sneakers too. We brought
all the boys clothes and for my little kamo I
brought her a whole knew wardrobe too. I can’t
wait to see her beautiful face as she tries her
clothes. We asked for the clothes to be shipped
back home and we paid everything including the
shipment and everything else that we be needed
on each shop we brought clothes at.
We had dinner and the next day we flew to Paris
and I was tired. My body was beginning to
complain and I was missing my kids. The next
morning my husband booked me a spa day at
the hotel and I was so looking forward to it.
Half of the day was spent there well he was
there watching me getting all pampered up. He
refused to be pampered and said I already do
that but I knew he didn’t want to be touched by
anyone. I was pampered like it was my wedding
day and I felt like I was the most beautiful girl
in the world. He left me to go “ take care of
something ”. When I was done I was taken to
another room and not the honeymoon suit we
are using.
There was a beautiful silk black dress on the
bed. I picked it up and the was so soft and light.
Wow this dress was gorgeous. The women
introduced themselves and I was asked to sit
down. The mirror was covered and I couldn’t
see what they were doing to me. They did my
hair first then make up and the whole thing took
almost three hours. I was so excited and I
couldn’t wait to see how I look. They helped me
put on my dress when I was done and it fit me
perfectly like the person who designed in took
measurements of my body. The smile was just
refusing to leave my face.
“ Are you ready to see how you look ma’am?. ”
I nod. “ Please don’t cry and ruin my make up.”
We giggle. “ your husband won’t know what hit
him. He is going to be speechless. You are so
beautiful. ” she says then the other lady removes
the cloth that was covering the floor to ceiling
mirror.
I gasp in shock. This is not me. I don’t look like
this and I have never looked like this. The dress
hugs my body perfectly showing the top of my
books. My hair is pulled back from my face to
the top of my head and a long sleek of ponytail
falls on my back. My eyes are dark and smokey
and the blood red lipstick has me feeling like
I’m going to an opening of some show or
something.
“ Oh my God. I look wow. ” I look at the ladies
that were doing my hair and make up. “ Thank
you so much…I have never felt so beautiful… .
” tears prickle my eyes and I take a deep breath
and fight them. “ All of you thank you. Wow!.”
They giggle and wipe their tears.
“ We are happy that you love your hair and
make up and girl that dress?. Your man has
taste. ” I blush. He sure does. “ our job is done
here. Someone will come to take you to your
next destination. Have a wonderful night Mrs
Gumede. ” they have a British accent. I’m just
happy that my make up was done by my people.
“ Thank you. Have a wonderful evening too.”
They take their things and leave. I look at
myself again and I’m speechless. Someone
knocks on the door.
“ Come in. ” a white woman comes in followed
by another man who’s holding a briefcase I
from.
“ Don’t be alarmed Mrs Gumede. Your husband
sent us to deliver these to you. May we?. ” I
nod. The guy goes to the bed and opens the
briefcase and I see sparkling shiny and
reflecting things.
I move closer and see a necklace that is made
out of diamonds. Wow. There’s a wrist bracelet
too a Rolex watch and many rings.
“ Everything in here is yours. He said you can
wear anything you like and the rest will be kept
safe and shipped back home.”
“ Ok. ” I take the long necklace and I wonder
how I’m going to wear it.
“ I can help you with that. Can I take this off?. ”
“ No. It never comes off. ” it’s that thing gogo
xulu told me to never take it off. She nods. She
a little taller than me so she places the necklace
on me and the long diamonds fall on my back.
Ok so this is how you wear it? Wow!. The
round part of it is on my neck then the rest is on
my back. I love it. “ It’s beautiful. Everything
here is beautiful thank you. ” she smiles.
“ let me help you with your shoes.” She holds
my hand and helps me get my nude three inch
pumps in. My red bottoms. “ let me take you to
your husband.
We leave the room and we get in the elevator.
She presses the roof top button I smile. We are
going to have dinner under the moon light next
to the Eiffel Tower. Can someone pinch me now
cause I don’t want to wake up.
“ Are you ready?. ” I feel so giddy. Butterflies
in my stomach and a little nervous I don’t know
why.
“ I am.” She smiles.
The elevator doors open and I am shocked. The
whole roof top is breath-taking. I step out of the
elevator and I finally notice that my family is
here. He flew all of them here. My dad and sis
nonto are here and even baba sbu and sbani.
Frank and my aunt uncle Victor no aunt lwethu
too. I am so happy right now. Sims appears on
my side and gives me my bouquet. They are all
wearing white Tuxedos and evening gowns.
They look so gorgeous and handsome. My
husband and in are the only ones wearing black.
My tears stream down and sims fans my face.
“ that man really loves you. No one deserves
this more than you. I love you.” She air kisses
me the walks to her husband. My brother walks
up to me smiling. I will not cry not when I look
this beautiful.
“ You have been through the worst. Now is the
time to finally enjoy your marriage. This is your
happily ever after.” He kisses my cheek then
walks to his wife. She’s a crying mess. The last
born zipho is sandwiched between his wives.
He’s really a polygamist.
Busani comes with two little people who look
like him and they run to me as soon as they see
me. I giggle and kiss their little cheeks huddling
them. Then I stand up holding to their little
hands
“ I was not there the first time you got married
but I am so happy that I am with you all now
and I get to experience this moment with you.
Thank you for being a sister I never knew I
needed and the pillar of strength to this whole
family. I am proud to call you my sister and
Umfazi kamfowethu. ” I giggle.
“ thank you. ” he kisses my cheek too. “ Are
they walking me down the isle?. ”
“ yes they are. ”
They look so handsome with their tuxes. I
crouch to their level.
“ Boys?. ”
“ Mommy?. ” they look at me.
“ Let’s go to daddy ” I give sbonelo my bouquet
to hold it but he throws it to the side and
everyone laughs.
Both of them are on my side holding my hand. I
let them lead me to where their dad is standing
looking at us. His face is relaxed but his eyes
are full of different emotions. We stop in front
of him and he takes a huge deep breath.
“ are you okay?. ” he smiles and his eyes get
softer.
“ I’m fine love.” Busani comes and takes the
boys.
“ you look so handsome. ” his tix looks like it
was tailored for just him only.
“ You are so breathtakingly beautiful.”
“ Thank you for a lovely day and I love my
dress.”
“ I picked it myself. I’m glad you love it.” He
kisses me.
The man who’s our wedding officiator cleared
his throat. I giggle. My husband takes both my
hands.
“ Ladies and gentlemen and the family. Tonight
we are celebrating this lovely couple who are
celebrating their love and the promises they
made to each other years ago when they got
married. The groom here my friend told me that
he wants to show his wife how much he loves
her and… . Man speak for yourself. ” we laugh.
Who’s is his friend?.
“ I watch you sleep at night. I always do but this
morning was different. It was different because I
realised that it was today five years ago when I
removed that blanket over your head and saw
you. That’s when my whole world changed and
I kept asking myself if all the things that
happened that led me to you would have
happened or not and I thought yes. I was going
to find you one way or another because you
were made for me. No other woman but you. I
asked our family to come here because we all
wanted to celebrate you. To thank you for
everything thing you have done for all the
people in here. All of us here met because of
you. Everyone here knows how much I love you
and how much I worship the ground you walk
on. I want you to know that I will always put
you and our kids first above anyone else and
everything else. I was brought to this world for
one reason only. To be your husband love you
and make you happy. You are my happiness and
my world luh and we are standing here now. On
this beautiful evening and under the moonlight
to ask you if you would give me the honour of
being my wife and marry me again. ”
“ I wasn’t expecting this and everyone here. I
would like to say thank you to each and
everyone of you for being here tonight with us.
You have seen the struggles we faced in our
marriage. You have been there with us
experiencing it and offering us advise amongst
many other things. Thank you all for lending an
ear when we needed to talk or vent. My husband
through the storms and hardships we faced we
knew that we won’t give up on each other. You
are my rock. You are everything to me I need
and want. I am content with you. You have
shown me what is it to love someone selflessly
and unconditionally. To respect the person you
love. You taught me that love and respect
breeds submission. I submit to you must
husband and I will always will.” I get on my
knees and look down. It feels like the whole city
has gone quiet.
His hands pull me up then he makes me look at
him.
“ I know you submit to me love and now you
have just proven to everyone how much you
trust me. You didn’t have to do that love. Thank
you though. ” I smile.
“ mommy I’m hungry. ”sboniso says and we
laugh. He walks up to me and I pick him up.
“ will you still marry him?. ” my husbands
friend asks.
“ I will marry you Mnguni. Always. ”
“ You may kiss your lovely beautiful bride.” We
just peck out lips and that’s it. I don’t want to
traumatize my dad and my kids.
“ Everybody please clap for Mr and Mrs
Gunede.” Everyone is happy for us and I am
happy that they are here to share this moment
with us.

#NotEdited
I had the most wonderful holiday of my life.
Being a line withy husband and spending
time with him was what we both needed. To
be alone and away from everyone. I
thought a holiday was all we were going to
have but I was wrong cause he was busy
organizing something for us and he flew out
whole family to be with us and celebrate the
special moment between us. I was most
happy to see my boys cause I missed them
so much.
I look at all if them and they are happy
laughing and dancing. Eating drinking and
having great conversations. I wish Mah was
here too to be with us but I know she’s with
us spiritually. Baba is with my husband and
they look like they are having a serious
relationship.
The bouquet I had I shared it with zipho's
soon to be wives and Sbani because I’m
hoping that they will all get married. I could
see that Sbani didn’t want to accept the
shared bouquet but then she took it. I didn’t
know what’s with her but sometimes I feel
like she doesn’t like me and that does hurt
me because I didn’t know what I have done
to offend her.
Sims and lesego come and sit with me.
They look so happy to be here and I can’t
wait for them to see what I have brought for
them. They are going to love it and I also
brought something special for all of us
including zipho’s wives and Sbani too but
I’m having doubts if I should give it to her or
not.
“ we are all dancing and you’re here looking
kind of sad. What’s wrong ” Sims asks.
“ Nothing is wrong. I’m just enjoying the
moment and happy to have all of you here.
Thank you for helping my husband plan all
of this.”
“ The pleasure was all our.” Lesego says
smiling.
“ How are you feeling?. ” I ask Sims.
“ tired hungry and bloated most of the time
and oh let’s not forget that I’m always
horny. ” we laugh.
“ I can’t wait to meet this little person you’re
carrying.” She laughs.
“ three more months then I’ll be done.”
“ are you guys going to have more kids?. ”
lesego asks
“ Yeah we decided that after this baby we
will try for another one then we are done.”
“ what about you guys?. ” I ask lesego.
“ I want as many babies with my man. I’m
ready to fall pregnant three times then I’m
done. ” we laugh.
“ Are you guys trying too?. ”
“ yeah we are. Everyday. ” we laugh. “ I
can’t wait to go back home and finalise the
boys birthday party.”
“ oh yeah when is it again?. ” Sims asks.
“ next weekend.” I’m so excited.
Sbani walks to us and she really looks
happy. She was dancing with her man and
they make a really beautiful couple. I think
they have sorted out their issues and I hope
they will get married.
“ Hey guys. ” she sits down. We greet her
back but lesego just looks at her. I nudge
her arm.
“ how is Paris for you?. ” lesego asks her.
“ Oh I love it. I mean just look. The Eiffel
Tower is just next to us. This is amazing.”
“ it really is.”
“ Do you like sbu?. ” why would lesego ask
her that?.
“ yes I do. ” she frowns.
“ do you love him?.” She asks her again.
“ uhm why are you asking all of those
questions?. ”
“ I’m asking you cause you got all weird
when luh gave you part of her bouquet. You
made things awkward there like you didn’t
want it.” Oh lesego.
“ maybe she was shocked and wasn’t
expecting it.” I answer.
“ Nah she looked like she didn’t want it. We
all saw it.” Sims says.
“ But she accepted it and that’s all that
matters guys. Just let it go. ”
“ Sbani did you want the bouquet?. ” lesego
asks again. I sigh. I don’t want Sbani to feel
like she’s being attacked.
“ I wouldn’t have taken it if I didn’t want it. ”
she says defensively.
“ guys can you give us some space?. I
would like to talk to Sbani alone.” they get
up and leave.
“ I’m sorry about that. I hope they didn’t
make you feel like they were attacking you.
”
“ No they didn’t.” we both get quiet and it
feels awkward.
“ Thank you for your support and coming
here. It means a lot to me and my and my
husband.”
“ I wanted to see Paris too and sbu had to
be for his best friend.”
“ Sbani I’m just going to come out and say
it. I could be wrong and I’m sorry if what I’m
going to say might make you feel a certain
way but I have to ask this. Do you not like
me or maybe did I do something to offend
you cause sometimes I feel like you don’t
like me and there will be this awkward
tension between us and I don’t know why. I
also did feel like you weren’t thrilled when I
came to you and gave you that bouquet
and I’m sorry if I put you on the spot. I didn’t
mean it.” She keeps quiet for a while then
looks at me.
“ You are a nice person luh and you didn’t
do anything wrong to me.” I wait for her to
continue and but she doesn’t.
“ Then the awkwardness or vibes that I get
from you what is the cause of them if I did
nothing wrong?. ” she shakes her head.
“ It’s just that when I look at you every time I
look at the woman…. ” my husband and
sbu walk to us and sbani stops talking. I
sigh. My husband kisses my cheek and sits
facing me.
“ What are you two talking about?. ” sbu
asks.
“ nothing serious. ” sbani answers. “ ah I’m
going to get something to drink. ” she
stands up and leaves us. My husband looks
at me and frowns.
“ love? What’s wrong? ”
“ Nothing… . I don’t know.”
“ what happened?. ” my husband asks.
“ I might be wrong and maybe seeing things
but I sometimes get the feeling that sbami
doesn’t like me. Like there’ll be this weird
tension between us and I don’t know why. I
tried to talk to her about it but she didn’t
want to say or she was before you two
came to sit with us.”
My husband and sbu look at each other.
Sbu sighs and shakes his head.
“ I’ll go talk to her.” Sbu says. Talk about
what with her?.
“ be easy on her bro.” he sighs
“ I’m sorry luh. I’ll talk to her.” He gets up
goes to her and they talk for a while and
then they leave. Sbani doesn’t look happy
at all.
“ what is going on baby?.”
“ Let’s go to bed I’m sure you’re tired.”
“ Baby?. ”
“ I’ll explain. Come.”
“ Isn’t it rude to leave all of then here? ”
“ like that has stopped us before. They’ll be
fine and look at them. They are having fun
and our boys are already sleeping.”
“ I was hoping we’ll sleep with them ”
“ hell no. Not tonight. ” he takes my hand
and we leave the roof top and go to our
honeymoon suit.
He picks me up and I giggle. He opens the
door and carries in inside he lays me on the
bed.
“ Aren’t you going to lock the door? ”
“ it locks itself love.” He says but then gets
up and runs out of the bedroom then he
comes back after a while and finds me
taking off my dress. He helps me take it off.
“ you look good love.”
“ thank you baby.”
We both get in the bathroom and shower.
After we are done we get in bed and I lay
my head on his chest.
“ What’s going on with sbani and sbu?. ”
“ remember when you told me that sbani
once said that sbu love’s this woman he
won’t have?. ”
“ uh huh ”
“ Sbani knows the woman and I think
maybe that’s why she’s been like that
around you. ”
“ What does that have got to do anything
with me?..... ” I look at him. “… no wait.
Me? I’m the woman sbu supposedly loves?
” he keeps quiet. “ no! Hell no it’s not me.” I
sit up.
“ You know I’ve done things in the past with
sbu and we’ve like the same type of
woman. I know he loves you and I also
know that he won’t try anything funny with
you that’s how much I trust him ” oh my
God that explains the tension and all those
things.
“ why the hell would sbu tell her that
knowing that he’s going to bring her around
us? ”
“ he didn’t tell her. You know that she
sometimes can see these things or maybe
gogo xulu don’t her. I don’t know love. ”
“ does sbani realize that I am married to
you and I love only you. I’m not a threat to
her relationship with sbu.”
“ I know love. I think she’s just insecure and
she’s still young. As she gets to know you
she’ll realize that she has nothing to worry
about.”
“ Baby you knew and you didn’t tell me. ” I
lay my head in his chest again. He kisses
my forehead.
“ Because it doesn’t matter to me. I love
you and you love me. Just give her time
okay?. ”
“ you are okay with knowing that your best
friend feels that way about me? ”
“ If maybe it ever happened that sbu was in
my place right now and I was in his. I would
feel the same way he’s feeling towards
you.”
“ But he loves her and wants her. Why
doesn’t she see that?. ”
“ maybe she does and maybe she doesn’t.
Maybe she feels jealous of you and maybe
inferior. ”
“ if there’s anyone she should be feeling
jealous of is Sims. She once slept with her
man and not me! ” my husband laughs.
“ Don’t let this thing upset you. She’ll get
over her little insecurities love.”
“ I hope so cause I hate the way she feels
around me or make me feel.”
“ don’t worry about her okay. ” I nod. He
gets between my thighs. “ Tomorrow we are
going home. Are you excited?. ”
“ I miss my home and I miss our bed.” He
kisses me deeply and leaves me
breathless.
“ love? ”
“baby…” he thrusts inside me and I moan.
“ Do. You. Have. Something. To. Tell. Me?.”
with each word he thrusts in deeply making
my toes curl. I grab his ass and push him
deeper in me.
“ love?. ”
“ Hmmmm ”
“ Tell me what I want to hear. ” he changes
his pace and thrusts fast
“ I… love you. Thank you… .. Ooohhhh…
Thank you for an amazing day and the
whole week… yesssss ” he chuckles.
“ Tell me love please….. ” Does my
husband suspect that I am pregnant?.
“ Look at me.” He thrusts slow. I entwine
our hands together and wrap my legs
around his waist.
“ Thank you for being my everything and
giving me the life I have right now. ” he
smiles. “ I wake up everyday and I always
thank God for everything that I have and
the blessings he always blesses us. I thank
God and our ancestors that they have
made it possible for us again to have
another baby.” His whole face changes and
he stops thrusting.
“ love?... Are you telling me that you we are
we pregnant? That we are having another
baby?. ” his dick grows inside me.
“ We are going to have another little
gumede on the family ” he smiles.
“ Thank you. Thank you MaNgcobo for
making me a man and helping me grow my
lineage. Thank you sthandwa sam.”
He moves our hands to over my head. We
kiss passionately and we make sweet.
Sweet love.
THREE DAYS LATER.
The next morning my husband and I flew
with our kids with my brother and his wife
my aunt with drank and aunt lwethu.The
others got in different flights then sbu my
aunt with drank and aunt lwethu.The others
got in different flights then sbu sbani bonga
busani Sims and zipho with his wives flew
together and I haven’t seen any of the since
that day. I’m expecting the shipment to
come in a few days and I am so excited.
My husband is in his office with his brother
and they are working with something. I got
a call from gogo Xulu that I must remind my
father in law about the ceremony for busani
then the ceremony expected at uPhongolo
must be done after. I want everything to be
done so I can focus on my pregnancy. I did
tell aunt lwethu what gogo said and she
said they’ll begin preparing for the
ceremony and busani is excited.
I haven’t told my sisters yet and I hope my
dad didn’t tell my brother that I’m pregnant
cause he will tell his wife and then everyone
will know. Sis nonto is at home with us and
I don’t know how things are between her
and my dad but I have seen her looking at
her phone and giggling a lot. I hope they
are working things out.
Celeste has come out from wherever she
was. I heard her talking with my husband
apologizing for not being able to attend the
funeral. I can’t wait to see her and hear
where she was hiding all this time. I’m
enjoying my ice cream when my phone
rings. I pick it up and it’s sbani. We haven’t
talked since that night.
“ hello? ”
“ Hi luh how are you? ”
“ I’m good sbani how are you? ”
“ I’m good too. Can we meet for lunch
today. There’s something I would like to talk
to you about.” I keep quiet cause I really
don’t know if I want to hear what she has to
say.
“ I don’t know sbani ”
“ Please luh. ”
“ ok where are we meeting? ”
“ At sbu's family restaurant. You know it
right? ”
“ yeah I do. ”
“ Ok can you be there in an hour? ”
“ ohk I’ll see you there then. ”
“ Thanks. ” she hangs up I sigh.
“ What’s wrong? ” busani asks sitting next
to me taking my spoon and eats my ice
cream.
“ go get your own ice cream ”
“ I want this one ” we laugh. “ tell me what’s
wrong. ” I sigh.
“ sbu's girlfriend wants us to have lunch and
I’m not sure if I want to go even though I
already said I would meet with her.”
“ what’s wrong with having a lunch? ”
“ it’s not about the food. It’s about what she
will say. ”
“ just go and hear her out love ” my
husband sits on my other side.
“ This is so weird. Seeing the two of you on
my sides. ” I shake my head.
“ so what are you going to do? ” busani
asks eating my Tinroof again. I don’t like
him right now.
“ Busani stop eating my wives ice cream ”
my husband says but he scoops some too
and grins and they laugh.
“ I swear to god baby that you will wake up
at 2am to go and buy me my ice cream if it
runs out. ”
“ why 2am? ” busani asks confused. Mbuso
looks at me asking for permission.
“ because we having another baby brother
and please keep it to yourself. We want to
finish the third trimester before we tell
everyone. ”
Busani looks at me and smiles. He kisses
my cheek then pulls me to a tight hug.
“ I’m so happy for you guys. Oh my God I
can’t believe were having a baby ” he says
excitedly. We laugh.
“ Yes we are. ” my husband says.
“ I can’t wait to have my family too.”
“ and you’re not getting younger busani.
You don’t want to play with your first born
when your 45 or 50 God! ” I shake my head
and laugh.
“ Well if me and my partner can’t have kids
then I’ll ask you and your husband to carry
the baby first us.” I look at my husband
“ what does that mean? ”
“ It means that I am bisexual and I don’t
know who I’ll spend the rest of my life with.
It could be a woman or a man. ”
“ or both ” I say and we laugh.
“ Yeah maybe both who knows. But if it
ever happens that I end up with a man. I
would like you to be our surrogate mother
luh but only when you and your husband
agrees.” My husband and I look at each
other.
“ Will it be your own seed or your partners?
” I ask him.
“ I want the kids to be of the Gumede
bloodline. We’ll get an egg donor then you’ll
be our surrogate mother.”
“ It sounds like you have been thinking
about this for long ” I tell him.
“ I have but when I see how you are with
the people you love and all the kids in this
family. ”
“ we’ll talk about that with my husband and
if that time comes we’ll let you know. Right
baby? ”
“ everything she said bro ”
“ ok then. I guess I have to go and change
for my lunch with sbani ” I get up.
“ Do you want me to come and help you
change. ” I slap his hand away from my ass
and they laugh.
I watch both of them sitting on the couch
and they look so alike. They are eating my
Ice cream.
“ I’m happy that you found each other ” they
smile. My husband winks at me. I giggle.
“ I’m driving you to your lunch ” mbuso says
and I nod.
An hour later we are on our way to the
restaurant.
“ I wish you didn’t tell me that sbu feels that
way about me. ”
“ Why? ”
“ I just feel bad for sbani and on the other
hand I feel like sbu should just get over
what he feels for me ”
“ He will love. When he finally finds
someone who’ll be his everything like you
are to me ”
“ You don’t think sbani is the one? ”
“ I’m mot sure about her. She’s too young
for him and maybe a little naïve. Sbu needs
a woman and sbani is just a girl ”
“ I was a girl too when I met you ”
“ Never love. You were a matured woman.
Nothing like sbani ” he Paris the car.
“ Are you going to wait for me? ”
“ I’m coming with love ”
“ she’s going to freak baby and not talk.
You know how you are ” he chuckles. Get
out of the car and opens the door. He takes
my hand and I step out.
“ sbu is expecting me. Come ”
We walk in the restaurant.
“ What do you think about what busani
said? ”
“ Hell no. They can get their own surrogate.
My dick going in and out of there and my
kids are the only ones coming out of that
pussy. ” my god did he have to say that?.
They take us to the where sbani and sbu
are sitting. We greet each other Sbu stands
up and kisses my cheek and they bro hug
with mbuso. Sbani stand up to and gives
me a hug. Ohk I wasn’t expecting it. We all
sit down.
“ I thought this lunch was about us girls
only? ”
“ I asked sbu to ask ubhuti mbuso to come
too. ” she explains. I nod. The waiter comes
and we place orders.
“ so you have been here this whole time? ” I
ask sbani
“ Yes. I love it here but I miss gogo too. I’m
leaving tomorrow. ”
“ I miss her too. ” she smiles. I don’t feel
any tension or vibes from her.
“ so uhm sis luh… ” oh I’m sis luh today. Ok
I’m not complaining. “ I would like to
apologize to you and your husband for how
I have been behaving around you
especially when you welcomed me with
warm arms into your lives and home. I just
let my jealousy get in the way and I took it
out on you and I’m sorry. I thought you
knew how sbu feels about you but I was
wrong and I’m sorry. ”
“ Sbani I didn’t know that he felt that way
about me. I am not a threat to your
relationship if you felt that way sbani. I am a
married woman as you know and there will
never be another man for me in this world
other than my husband. Whatever sbu
thinks he feels for me will eventually go
away. I think maybe he just wishes that he
had the kind of love my husband and I have
that’s all. Maybe he would want that his
woman to have certain qualities about me
that he likes and please don’t take this the
wrong way sbani. I don’t think sbu has
compared you to me and said things that
offended you. I could be wrong but I don’t
know.” She looks at sbu who has been
looking at her the whole entire time.
“ forget about what he thinks he feels for
me. Focus on the love he has for you. Look
at how he’s looking at you. It’s the same
way my husband looks at me. If you focus
on things that don’t matter then your
relationship will have problems. Sbani these
two men are very important to each other
and I would never get between them or
even cause problems. I won’t let anyone
else to come between their relationship. Not
even you.” She looks me
“ who is my brother to you? ” my husband
asks her
“ I love him. ” she says without a doubt. I
smile and take her hand.
“ that’s what I wanted to hear. You didn’t
think about it. You just said it cause you
mean it.” My husband says. “ sbani I know
you are still young and there’s a lot you
need to learn about relationships because
you don’t have experience in that
department. You are going to be married in
the Royal Family and be in a polygamous
relationship. You are going to need all the
support you can get from the people closest
to you and that is us. All of us because
that’s what gogo asked me to do. Look out
for you and I will. Don’t push my wife away
or the other women because you are now
part of our family and we look out for our
own. Uyeswa Sisi? ”
“ Ngiyakuzwa bhuti Mbuso. Ngiyaxolisa
kakhulu. ”
“ it’s okay sis. Sometimes we can’t help
how we feel when it comes to people we
love.” My husband says. I smile.
“ It was luh who asked me to be open and
talk to you. She explained that you might be
scared and feeling overwhelmed about
everything and so she suggested that I ask
one of skhumbuzo's wives to talk to you
and help you understand what it like to be
married in Royal and to be in a polygamous
relationship. ”
“ thank you sis luh. That helped me a lot.” I
smile.
“ I’m happy that there won’t be any tension
between us cause I really like you sbani. ”
she smiles. She then touches my stomach
out of the blue and looks at me and smiles.
“ All of you are pregnant. Wow luh! ” she
smiles. After feeling my stomach.
“ You guys are pregnant? ” sbu asks
excited.
“ She told me when we were in Paris. Do
you know what are we expecting?. ”
“ I do know. I’m so happy for the both of
you. Your mother luh and both your
mother’s and sister Angela are happy for
you. They send their congratulations. ” my
eyes get misty. She hugs me.
“ are they okay? Both his moms and sister?
”
“ They made peace and they are together.
They are with all of you.” Thank you God.
“ She wants to thank you for making sure
she has a beautiful send of and for making
a way for her to be with her ancestors.
You’re blessed luh.”
“ Thank you. ” my husband wipes my tears.
“ you have already chosen a name. ” she
says and I nod wiping my tears.
“ How did you know? ”
“ they just told me and they are very happy
with it.” Oh my God.
“ what name did you choose love? ” I cry on
his chest. He soothes my bag until I calm
down.
“ I’m not crying cause I’m sad. I’m happy
baby… . ” I smile through my tears. “ I
thought that if we are pregnant with a girl
I’m going to name her after Angela and… . ”
I sniff “ now I’m a crying mess because I
know we are going to have a baby girl. ” he
plants kisses all over my face and I laugh.
“ Congratulations guys. Now I feel like I’m
being left behind. ” we laugh.
“ If you play your cards right you just might
be lucky ”
“ Thank God ” sbu says and steals a kiss
from her and she blushes. She’s beautiful.
“ I think this calls for a celebration.” He calls
a waiter and they order champagne
alcoholic and non alcoholic. They bring it
and they pop it. We laugh.
“ we are going to toast for you two.” My
husband says. “ may you love each other
unconditionally through everything that life
throws your way. Whatever happens please
know that our home will always be open to
you both. I hope sbani makes you as happy
like how my wife makes me happy and
even more. To you guys. ” we click our
glasses and drink.
I still can’t believe that sbani said carrying a
baby girl and Angela and everyone is happy
that I want to give our child her name. I feel
so blessed right now and very happy. I can’t
wait to give all my sister my sisterly
diamond necklaces on the twins birthday
party and I hope they are going to love
them. I also asked someone to help me
with something special for my husband his
brothers and all the kids. They are going to
be so happy.

CHAPTER 100

LUNGI.
#NotEdited
I quickly get up and run to the bathroom and
vomit until nothing comes out and my body
heave. God I hate morning sickness. I never got
sick when I was pregnant with the twins but this
pregnancy has other ideas. My baby girl wants
to show off by making her mommy sick every
day. I don’t know why it’s called morning
sickness because I’ll be sick most of the day.
My husband soothes my back.
“ You okay love? ” he asks me this everyday.
“ Hmmm ” I lift my head of the bowl and he
flushes.
“ I hate that they are making you sick.” I hate
that too.
Yes we are having another set of twins. A baby
girl and boy. We couldn’t believe when the
doctor told us that we are expecting two babies.
My husband broke down and cried when we got
in the car. I had to hold him until he came down.
He is so excited and has been working from
home since he found out we are pregnant. I
don’t even know why cause I’m not even
showing yet but I’m loving having him home
around us.
“ I wish they wouldn’t wake me up like this ” he
helps me get up. I go to the vanity and take my
toothbrush and he takes his too and we brush
our teeth looking at each other in the mirror
until we are done. I wash my face and the
moment um done he attacks my mouth and we
kiss like hell.
“ baby… . ” I try to push him off me.
“ I’m horny ” He says
“ you’re always horny baby ” he chuckles and
looks at me. “ we have to go and wake the boys
up.” He kisses my neck.
“ they don’t even know it’s their birthday today
love. Asishaye I quickie fast then we’ll go and
sing for them ”
“ we’ll have I quickie after. Masambe. ( let’s
go) ” he groans and I laugh.
“ Ok let’s shower then. ” God he won’t leave
me alone until we have a quickie.
“ baby?. ” he opens the shower faucet.
“ love ”
“ When are we going to do it? ”
“ Do what? ” I cock my head to the side. “ No.”
“ what? Why baby you promised ” I whine
“ Uh A I didn’t promise you that love ”
“ but you said well do it. ”
“ That was before we found out that we’re
pregnant love ” huh?
“ What does that have anything to do with it? ”
“ I don’t want to hurt my kids. We’re not doing
it! ” he says and gets in the shower. Hurt his
kids how?. I’m not letting this go. We are going
to do it.
I leave the bathroom and go to the closet and
wear my comfy yoga pants and his T-shirt and
my sleepers. I leave the closet and I find him
laying on the bed facing up. His dick is rock
hard.
“ indoda ayilali ibheke phezulu ” he laughs
“ I’m waiting for you baby. ”
“ Well keep waiting sthandwa sam. I’m going to
wake up our kids and prepare. I’m sure the party
planner is already here and you said you have to
go and buy the meat right? . So get dressed my
love.” I won’t get anywhere close to him cause I
know of won’t be coming out of this bedroom
until we have our fill of each other. He sits up I
know he’s going to come to me so I pretend that
I’m coming to him he relaxes then I quickly run
out of our bedroom laughing.
He calls my name but I close the door and
leave. I walk until I’m outside the boys
bedroom. I open the door and peek inside and
they are still sleeping. My happy babies so
grown and beginning to look like their dad
everyday. He wraps his arms around me and I
live my head back to his chest.
“ what are you thinking? ” he brushes my
stomach.
“ How happy they are looking like you everyday
and you’re making me hungry when you’re
doing that ”
“ well you didn’t want me to fuck you so lets go
so I can feed you ” I giggle.
“ we should wake them up. ”
“ Let me go get their cup cakes so they can blow
them ” he goes to the kitchen and comes back
with his brother.
“ morning luh” he gives me a light hug.
“ When did you come home last night? ” my
husband chuckles
“ sorry I wasn’t home for dinner ”
“ next time call so I won’t be worried about you
” busani grins
“ Awww I love you too ” he kisses my cheek.
My husband shakes his head.
We get in and close the door. My husband and
his brother have cup cakes with four candles lit
on each. I walk to their bed cause they are
sleeping together. I don’t know when they are
going to outgrow this thing of theirs of sharing a
bed and sometimes holding hands. I love it
though cause it shows their bond to each other. I
kiss their cheeks and they smile. I smile too.
“ Boys?.... Boys wake up ” my husband gives
busani the other cupcake then beds down and
rubs his beard on their faces.
“ Uh ha baby don’t do that ”
“ You want them to wake up so I’m waking
them up love ”
“ Baby?.... Boys?...” I shake them lightly then
sboniso's eyes open. I smile. He looks around
and seems surprised to see us. His dad shakes
his brother up and he also wakes up. Sbonelo
has always been a heavy sleeper not like his
brother. I pick sboniso then his dad takes
sbonelo who’s grumpy. My son is not a morning
person.
“ look it’s your birthday today. Look at your
cupcakes ” the twins look at each other and
smile.
Busani is standing in front of us holding the
cupcakes and we are sitting on the bed. We
begin to sing them happy birthday they sing
along and laughing. They are so excited. I can’t
wait to see their faces when they see what I have
planned for their birthday party. They blow their
candles and we clap. Busani takes pictures of all
of us. My husband takes out the candles and is
about to feed them cupcakes.
“ baby no? ” they all look at me.
“ No mommy? ” sbonelo says.
“ did you brush your teeth? ” I ask them
“ No ” they both say
“ go brush your teeth and then come downstairs
for breakfast. You’ll eat your cupcakes after
breakfast ”
“ Ah mamakhe it’s their birthday today. Can
they have their cap cakes after brushing their
teeth please? ” busani pleads
“ siyakcela love ”
“ ok fine. These cupcakes only and they are not
skipping breakfast ” the boys smile.
“ I love you two very much. Happy birthday
boys. ” I kiss them both and high them tight. “
Help then brush their teeth. I leave then and go
to the kitchen. I notice that the party planner and
her people and the catering people arrived very
early cause they are almost done. I look at the
time and it’s 8:30 am. My kitchen is full of
strangers but I’m not worried cause my husband
checked everyone out who’s going to be here
working.
I greet them and make myself tea and sit down.
My husband and his brother come in after a
while with the boys and the kitchen just goes
quiet. I know they say them when my husband
came to get cupcakes. Why are they being weird
and starring. Both my husband and his brother
are not fazed with everything. I have gotten
used to women drooling on my husband and I
enjoy looking at him when that happens.
“ Why aren’t you all working? ” sis nonto asks
them. She’s not looking happy at all.
“ Mah what’s wrong? ” I ask her.
“ I was about to come and get you for breakfast
since I knew the kitchen was going to be used.”
Ohk but what is wrong with her.
“ you’re upset. What happened? ” my husband
asks her and she sighs. The house goes quiet.
“ Some girls were taking pictures in the house.”
My husband’s face changes.
“ Tina? ”
“ yes Mrs Gumede ”
“ I thought I specifically asked you to tell your
people not to take pictures of my home? ” she
nods.
“ I told them Mrs gumede but I guess they
didn’t listen to me ” my husband gets up brings
sbonelo to me and walks out of the kitchen. Sis
nonto looks at me and I shrug my shoulders. He
comes back after a while carrying small pastille
bags.
“ give this to everyone who’s here to work. Tell
them to put their cell phones here write their
names on the name tag then give them to my
wife after you have gathered all of them. You’ll
get them when the work is done. If anyone
refuses to give you their cell phones I want
them. Out of my house.” Sis nonto takes the
bags and gives them to Tina who takes them and
the people in the kitchen begin to take out their
phones.
“ let’s go have breakfast ” we leave the kitchen
and go sit outside where there’s a tent and
chairs. “ oh I am so hungry ” I say. The twins sit
down and Gugu plates for them. The smell of
bacon hits me like it’s something I haven’t
smelled before. I plate five rashes if it and other
things and dig in. It tastes so good. I open my
eyes and my husband is watching me. I wink at
him and he licks his lips. I shake my head no he
laughs. The twins join in too and laugh. If only
they knew what their dad wants.
The rest of the morning goes by and presents
from different people keep coming in being
delivered. This is a kiddies party but the way it
feels it looks like it’s going to be more than that.
Zipho and his beautiful wives come in looking
all sorts of beautiful. Lesego and my brother
arrive too with dad and my other uncles and
aunts. I am so happy to see them. Bonga and
sims arrive too with their new house keeper and
driver and their little girl who gives to join the
kids in the house. Sims house keeper goes to
join sis nonto and her husband goes to Percy.
Mbuyiselo and his brothers have also with
lumka and she’s so happy to see us. She
disappears to somewhere in the house since
she’s the only teenager then sbu and sbani
comes with his brother and his wives and their
three kids. After welcoming them my husband
and I also go in the house so we can get ready
for the twins birthday party. The living room
has so many presents its crazy. Can’t wait to
see what the backyard looks like.
“ luh? ” sis ninti nonto calls my name.
“ Mah. ”
“ where do you want me to put your things? ” I
smile.
“ can you take them to my husband’s office.
When I want them. I’ll let you know ”
“ Ok sisi. ”
“ Is dad still coming? ” she smiles. I guess
things are good between them.
“ Go and change luh. ” I giggle.
“ What things love? ”
“ it’s a surprise for the boys ” he nods.
When we get in our bedroom I find myself on
all fours and my husband fucks the shit out of
me. After two hours we come out of the
bedroom feeling fresh and looking good. We go
to the boys bedroom and Gugu is finishing
dressing my babies and the photographer is
taking photos of them. They run to us looking
handsome. We pick them up take a few photos
then go downstairs.
“ Mrs gumede everything is ready and the food
is prepared. The kids have been sat down and
they are waiting for these little guys.” Tina says.
“ Thanks Tina. ” she nods.
“ are you boys ready? ” they nod. “ Ok let’s go.
”
We walk to the backyard and it looks amazing
there’s a play areajumping castle face paints and
a whole lot of things. Blue and yellow colours
and minions them décor all over. We out them
down and they run around admiring the
décor. Melusi comes and takes them to their
seats. They are so excited.
“ good day everyone. Thank you for coming to
celebrate with us this special day as the boys are
four years old today. I am zipho gumede the
father to these little men and I will be hosting
these little people here. So everyone please get
up and let’s sing happy birthday to them as their
cake is being brought in. ”
Bonga and Busani come with two cakes and the
boys go crazy. We sing them happy birthday
and they blow their candles. They play games
they sing dance and eat. Lots of pictures are
taken including a family portrait with all of us.
All the children who are invited are so happy
bring here and with their gift bags. The adults
are also having fun eating and drinking. Theirs
uncles and aunts give them presents which
include gadgets toys and lots of money.
“ So before we wrap up and let you kids have
your fun. I would like to call their parents to
come in the front and say a few words for the
boys. ” I look at sis nonto and she nods.
My husband takes my hand and we walk to
where the boys are seated. He takes the mic
from zipho looks at the boys then looks at me.
He winks and I smile. Sis nonto comes carrying
a medium size box. She outs it in front of me
then goes to stand with my dad.
“ Thank you everyone for coming here today.
My wife and I really appreciate it very much. I
am not only a father to my sons only but to all
the sons and the only daughter we have in this
family. When my wife told me we were going to
have a baby my whole life changed. I knew I
would do anything to make sure that they are
always protected safe and loved. I knew that
they will always have a happy and loving home
because their mother is an amazing woman. A
one of a kind and baby. Thank you for making
me the man I am today. Thank you for giving
me a home and loving me unconditionally and
giving me the family that we have today. I wish
God and our ancestors will bless us with many
more children. Boys happy birthday always
know that your mom and dad love you very
much ” that was so sweet. He gives me the mic.
“ Thank you baby although I don’t think the
boys will remember everything you said… ”
they chuckle. “ I am blessed to have a close and
tight family that I have. I didn’t know anything
about being a mother until I realised that I was
pregnant. I didn’t know what unconditional love
was until I held them in my arms when they
were born and looked into their eyes. I could see
their dad and I could see myself in them. My
own family. Many of you don’t know that I
didn’t know my family. I thought the family I
grew up in was my family but it wasn’t. My
husband is the one that introduced me to my dad
my brother and my aunts and uncles. Mnguni I
wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for you. I
wouldn’t have it all if it wasn’t for you. I
wouldn’t have you or our kids if my life didn’t
turn out the way it did. Having your name and
carrying your kids is everything to me. I live for
you our children and our whole. Family. Thank
you for choosing to love me and be your
everything. ” he steals a kiss from me and the
kids make disgusting sounds. We laugh.
“ so as the boys are growing today I decided to
get them something but then I thought I want all
our kids to receive something that will mean
everything to all of them. Please hold this baby.
Lumka come and help me. ” he takes the mic.
I open the box and take out the seven little
Jewellery and out them on the table and the
camera man zooms in on the gifts.
“ I asked the man who’s my designer and who
designed my husband wedding ring to design
me 7 personalized necklaces with all the boys
names and our baby girl and lumka too.” I take
out the diamond necklace and lumka screams. I
give one to my husband to out put it on sbonelo
and I put one around sboniso. Lumka wears
here’s and she’s in tears. My husband hells me
out the necklaces on the kids and they are so
happy. Melusi hugs me tight and promises me
he’ll take good care if it. I know my baby will.
Lumka hugs me tight too and thanks me.
“ it is cold Daddy ” sbonelo says and we laugh.
“ Wow mommy they are so beautiful. I wish I
was kid too to receive such a gift… ” everyone
laughs. “ I hope the older kids realize that this is
more than just a gift. If you look closely boys
you’ll see that the message written says ( we are
one family). It means that all of you take care of
each other. You are brothers and sisters and you
will love each other no matter what and no one
messes with you.” The adults agree.
“ Thank you sis luh for this wonderful very
expensive gift. Okay children put them back and
your parents will take them and keep them safe.
” the children protest but eventually give them
back even the twins.
“ Uhm thank you everyone for coming and
having a great day with us. The adults party will
start later so I suggest you should the kids home
and come and have a good time with us. Enjoy
guys and thank you again. ” zipho says. We also
thank everyone.
“ Thank you zipho. You did a great job ” he
smiles.
“ I enjoyed it sis luh and it’s the least I could do
for the twins.” We hug him.
“ Why didn’t you tell me you were planning that
love. I love their necklaces. ” he hugs me tight
and I feel him breathing me in. Filling his lungs
with scent.
“ It was a surprise baby haw ” I giggle.
“ That was special baby. Thank you ” we kiss.
The rest of the day goes by and the people that
were invited begin to leave one by one until it is
us the family and the party planner and her
people begin to take their things. Things
between sbani and I are good but lesego said
she’s not buying it. She’s protective of me. I
like the relationship zipho’s soon to be wives
are having now. They are close and I like that.
Skhumbuzo and his wives left also with their
kids but sbu and sbani are still here. My uncles
and aunt leave too with their grandchildren.
“ Uh guys can we all go inside there’s
something we need to talk about. ” my husband
says. He takes my hand and we walked in the
house to the living room. I
“ I’ll be back baby ” I go to the kitchen cause I
already know what he’s going to tell them. My
dad and sis nonto are eating. I’m so happy to
see both of them happy.
“ Dad have you seen ubaba? ”
“ He’s went to his bedroom ” I worry about him.
“ so I take it that you two are together now? ” I
join them and dig in my dad’s food. He gives
me his whole plate and eats with his woman.
“ yes we are. ” dad says kissing her cheek.
“ So now I must look for another housekeeper
that we will trust like you and Gugu and the
nannies? ”
“ yes you do. She has to come home and live
with me ” sis nonto blushes.
“ we can take one of the women that work at the
farm. You already know them.” Sis nonto says.
“ I’ll have to talk toy husband first then I’ll let
you know ” the food tastes good but my kids
don’t seem to agree. I quickly get up and run to
the bathroom that close to the living room.
Maybe it’s that cake I ate that’s upsetting me. I
vomit until everything comes out. Oh I feel like
shit.
“ here’s your brush ” sis nonto says. I flush the
toilet and brush my teeth.
“ I should have see that you’re pregnant ” she
says smiling.
“ I was going to tell you ”
“ It’s okay sisi I understand and I am so happy
for you and mbuso ” we hug then come out of
the bathroom.
“ you okay baby? ”
“ I am dad. ” I kiss his bold head.
“ I’m going to make you some camomile tea.
You’ll feel better.
“ thank you ma ” dad grins like he’s just hit a
jackpot I go to my husbands office open the
safe and take out the remaining gifts I have for
everyone and they are a little bit heavy.
“…… . Then on Friday we are all going to
Phongolo and do the last ceremony.... ” I put the
bag on the table. “ yeah and thanks for the gifts
for the boys. They love them and are going to
love them. Love you okay? ”
“ Just tired that’s all. ”
“ What do you have there? ” Sims asks.
“ Oh you just had to ask didn’t you? ” they
laugh. “ uhm baby can you sit down. ” he does
“ Ah luh before you begin we would like to day
thank you for the amazing necklaces you
brought the kids. Thank you sis ” bonga says. I
nod.
“ I never wore ice when I was their age ” zipho
complaints.
“ you’re no longer the last born of this family ”
my husband says laughing.
“ Leave him alone. ” zipho grins I shake my
head. “ well as I was saying. All of us are a
family right here we are not in-laws or anything
but a family so my husband and I did something
to show you how much we appreciate you have
you in our lives. It’s just a little something and I
hope you will all live them.”
The house is quiet watching me as I take out the
gifts and give them to. Zipho’s wives sbani and
my sisters. They are wrapped beautifully so they
don’t know what they are.
“ Ok open them. ” they tear the papers and open
the jewellery box and lesego screams. “ These
necklaces engraved with your names like the
our children’s necklaces represent to me our
sisterhood and how much I appreciate all of
you. Sims nawe lesego you will see that the
different designs match those of your kids but
still look like all of ours. I hope you love them.
” they are in tears.
“ wow luh thank you” Sims is a crying mess. “
they must have cost a fortune ”
“ I didn’t realize that spending my husbands
money was so fun. I enjoyed it ” they laugh. “
Uhm baby don’t you have something to show
your brothers too and don’t worry I wrote their
names are outside the box cause you were
worried about mixing them up.” He’s been quiet
watching me.
“ I knew you guys got us something. ” zipho
says excited. He can be such a child sometimes.
My husband takes out the jewellery boxes and
gives them to his brothers. All of them including
the Zikalala brothers. He sits me up then sits me
on his lap. He hasn’t said anything. We both
watch the men open their jewellery boxes and
they are in awe. I asked my designer to also
make them diamond rings engraved with their
names and the word brothers for life. They are
speechless as they try them on.
“ Wow bro these rings are amazing. Brothers for
life man thank you and they match my wife’s
necklace and the boys. Wow” bonga says.
“ My wife did all the work. The designing and
everything. ” he says proudly kissing my cheek.
“ bro I love mine. I’m never taking this ring off
ever.” Busani says.
“ Of all the things you have brought me. This
means so much to me. Ngiyabonga bhuti
mbuso. ” ncooh zipho is emotional. His ring too
matches his women’s too.
“ We are brothers for life. Thank you man ” sbu
says. His too matches with sbani's necklace.
“ I love you man. Thank you ” my brother says
fist bumping with my husband.
“ we also didn’t expect this but thank you
brother. We will cherish these rings forever. ”
the brothers thank my husband and I am so
happy.
“ the both of you gave all of us gifts but none
for yourselves? ” lesego asks.
“ Oh I almost forgot. Here’s yours baby ” my
husband takes the box I pull our from my dress
pocket. I don’t know why he’s surprised cause
surely he knew I would get him something too.
He opens the box and sees his diamond ring
with 18k white gold. His name is engraved and
it’s written.
“ Protector & Ruler of oGumede ” he reads it
out loud. He palms my cheek. Thank you my
love. I love it. ” I take it and put it on his right
hand third finger then kiss him.
“ This has been an amazing day. A day I will
never forget for as long as I live. I am happy to
have found all of you and I’m blessed to call
you my family. I love all of you and I promise
that I will be your keeper. I am my brothers and
sisters keeper. ” that’s what I engraved on
busani ring ( I am my brothers and sisters
keeper.)
“ let’s not end the night yet. It’s time to dance ”
zipho says and they agree.
“ then that means everyone will be sleep here.
There’s enough room for everyone and it there
isn’t then some of you will share. ” my husband
says and they agree.
They begin to take out the meat in the cold room
and prepare to Braai and I want to go tuck my
kids in bed.
“ let’s go tuck the boys in before they sleep ”
my husband agrees and we walk to the game
room and they are not there. We go to the their
bedroom and uBaba is reading them a story.
They are both in one bed listening to him and
they are I awe.
We close the door so we won’t disturb them.
We walk back to the living room and almost
everyone is outside. We sit on the couch and iay
my head in his chest.
“ This day was about the boys but you made it
to be more than about them. You included
everyone and made it about family. How do you
do that. ”
“ I don’t know how baby. I just wanted the day
to be special to everyone and I think I did that. ”
“ I’m still in shock with the necklaces and rings
you brought baby. Diamonds and I didn’t even
see it. ”
“ Well it’s not like we don’t have money and
can’t afford it. This was to show them they
mean much more till us than what they think.
Busani is still new here so I wanted him to feel
like he’s also part of the brother9 even though
he already is but to have something that will
remind him of that. ”
“ I can’t ever thank you enough for what you
did today. Everything you do luh touches my
heart baby always and today was even more. I
am so blessed to have you in my life.”
“ we are both blessed baby and this is proof of
that.” He brushes my stomach and we kiss.
Lesego and my brother come to us and they are
looking so happy. My brother licks me up and
kisses my whole face. I laugh so hard cause he’s
making me feel like I’m kamo. He puts me
down.
“ what was that all about? ” I ask him
“ For being the best sister in the whole wide
world. I love you ”
“ I love you too big brother. Why are you so
emotional though? ” he threads his hands with
lesego's.
“ Well we wanted you two to be the first ones to
know that we are pregnant.” Oh my God! Sbani
saw it.
“ Oh my God congratulations! ” I pull lesego to
a hug and she’s sniffing. This is so beautiful.
My husband hugs her too then we ain’t down.
“ Oh dad is going to lose it. The whole family is
going to be so excited ” I tell them. How far
long are you? ”
“ Three months and three days. We wanted the
first trimester to pass before we told anyone.
”.my husband and I look at each other.
“ this day was full of blessings.” My husband
says. I am so happy for my brother. Wow!.
They come back in the house and continue to
have a good time and I tire to our bedroom.. I
am tired and I want to sleep.
The week following we had busani's ceremony
where he was introduced to his ancestors and he
changed his surname he’s now Busani Gumede
not Zikalala. On Friday morning we had to drive
to uPhongolo where Asanda and Fanele wife
were there. They went welcoming but we did
what we had to do and I did everything gogo
Zikalala instructed me to do and it all went well.
My father in law also paid damages and
everything that was asked form him. We left on
Sunday to our respective homes.
Today is the new years eve. We’ll be finally
saying goodbye to the hardest year we have ever
had. We will be in my brothers house tonight
ending the year there. The twins will be going to
grade R next year and I can’t wait for that day.
“ love let’s go. ” I look at the time. It’s 3 pm.
“ Why do we have to go now baby it’s still early
though ” I whine
“ I promised the guys that I will bring alcohol.
Woza love the kids are waiting in the car. ” he
takes my hand and we leave the house. These
kids are making lazy.
We get in the car and drive a 30 minute drive to
my brothers house. I am so glad I am not
hosting and I get to sit down and enjoy. We
arrive there and it’s already full. The twins go to
join the kids and play. I go to the guest room
close the door and get on the bed and sleep.
“ love?.... Love? ” I open my eyes and it’s my
husband.
“ What’s wrong? ” I ask him.
“ Nothing. You’ve been sleeping for six hours
and I’m sure you’re hungry.” I get up and yawn.
I feel better.
We leave the bedroom and go outside where
everyone is. We sit down my brother brings me
my plate full of meat and I dig in and that k god
I don’t throw up. My brothers friends and
people he does business with come in with their
partners and girlfriends. Everyone looks happy
and enjoying the company.
My sisters come and we sit having forest
conversations. What we have all realised is
lesego and sbani are never going to get along
because they are always fighting and frankly
I’m tired of trying to play referee. The clock
ticks and soon it’s almost 12 am. We all sit
down on the picnic like style like blanket. My
husband is sitting behind me I’m between his
knees and our kids are between mine with their
headphones on so the noise won’t damage their
eardrums. They begin to count down.
“ our marriage hasn’t been a smooth in park or
roses and sunshine ” he says.
“ but we made it through. Our love and faith to
each other saw us through baby. ”
“ You’re my forever love. You have my heart
body and soul.”
“ I own your ass baby ” he laughs.
“ I swear on my mother’s grave that Umshado
wethu will be the way it was meant to be. Filled
with love happiness endless kisses and many I
mean many more hard fucks and love making
that will result in us having more kids ”
“ amen to that. ”
“ 3 2 1. Happy New year! ” firecrackers go out
and everyone screams. The twins get scare
“ Happy new year love ”
“ happy new year baby ”

8 MONTHS LATER.

We had one hell of a weekend last week. Zipho

got married to his two wives on the same day ay
the same time. My brother really loves his wives
and they love him too. They respect him and
treat him like their husband as they should. We
have new Additions in the family well sis nonto
is not exactly knew but she is now married to
my father in law and they live together. Sims
gave birth to a baby girl and she’s so adorable.
Lesego also gave birth to a baby boy who looks
like his daddy. Scelo is very happy and the only
people now left is zipho and busani.
My brother has told dad and I brothers that he is
bisexual and they were all cool. I am glad
though that the little crush he had on scelo is
gone. I am worried about him though cause I
feel like he should have met someone by now
although I think he did but he’s just hiding it
from us. I hope busani understands that we love
him regardless of what and we just want him to
be happy. He bought a house and he’s living
alone although he spends most of his time here
at home.
The twins are in grade R and their first day at
school was very hard cause they cried like hell
and their mother did too. We had to leave fats
after we took them to the class. Frank and luh's
aunt are married not and they live in Joburg. I
am so happy for them. Celeste lives in London’s
with her lover and the last time we spoke she
said she’s planning on proposing to her
girlfriend and she will invite us when they have
set a date.
The last few days I have been waking up
missing my mom like hell and it felt like she
was in our bedroom cause of the smell of her
perfume. Luh even said the same thing too. That
is why I woke up very early and drive home.
My dad comes and stands next to me. We look
at my mother’s grave.
“ I miss her everyday. Everyday living without
her gets harder and harder ”
“ I always feel her presence around us baba. She
will always be with us no matter what ” he nods.
“ I took her clothes to the homeless shelter. I
know there are people who could really use
having clothes. ” wow ok never though dad will
do that.
“ I’m happy you did baba. You have closed that
chapter of your life. ”
“ it’s still hard mbuso and I hope you and your
brothers forgive me for what I did to her. ”
“ We forgave you baba and that is all in the past.
Are you ever going to have someone that will
keep you company and maybe possibly fall in
love with? ”
“ if luh died would you think or even love
another woman like you loved her? ”
“ God for baba never. I’ll die an old man until
I’m reunited with her again. ”
“ that’s how I feel about your mother. ”
“ You don’t want to be sad and lonely baba. Luh
asked you toobe in with us. We really want you
to and the twins love having you around. ”
“ I wouldn’t want to impose mbuso. I’ll stay
with busani for a while then I’ll see. ”
“ Fair enough. Luh promised uMah that she’ll
take care of you so please let us. ” dad nods. My
phone e tings and it’s my wife.
“ Love? ”
“ Where are you mbuso? You wake up and
leave me alone? ” she’s crying God I hope she
gives birth soon cause they are driving me
crazy.
“ I’m on way baby. I’ll be home soon I promise
” dad chuckles.
“ Where are you cause I’ve been looking for
you all over the house? ”
“ I went to buy you your hot cross buns baby.
I’ll be home soon ungakhali phela love please ”
she sniffs.
“ Ok come back then ”
“ I’m on my way love ” I hang up and sign. Dad
laughs.
“ you shouldn’t have left her. She can give birth
at any time ”
“ I know dad but when I woke up I felt like I
had to be here. Our bedroom has been smelling
like her perfume. I don’t know if that means she
has been visiting us or what. ”
“ it could be or you just miss her. ”
“ I do dad very much. I have to go before luh
calls and drives me crazy ” he laughs.
“ I am so looking forward to meeting the twins ”
“ Us too dad. Let me know what you decide. I
love you ” I hug him
“ I love you too son. ”
I get in my car and drive home. After parking
the car I walk in the house and I find her sisters
there and luh is drying. I rush to her quickly.
“ love what’s wrong? Sims? ”
“ She’s having contractions but they are not that
bad ” what?
“ my wife is in pain Sims. Live let’s go to the
hospital ” she shakes her head and smiles.
“ my water hasn’t broke yet. We can’t go
aaahhhhhhhh ” then she cries again.. “ why are
you here mbuso! ” huh?
“ love let’s go to the hospital ”
“ oh shut up! You did this to me and now I’m in
pain aaaaawwwww God make it stop! ” oh my
God! Sims and lesego chuckle.
“ love I’m calling the doctor ”
“ if you dare do that mbuso I swear you’ll give
birth to these damn kids yourself! ” I press my
lips harder so I won’t laugh. She’s in pain she’s
pissed at me but she still looks so beautiful like
that.
“ I love you love ”
“ ahhhh fuck I love you too… oh my god my
water just broke? ” what? “ Aaahhhhhhh! ” my
wife screams like I have never heard her before.
“ We have to go to the hospital now.

THREE MONTHS LATER.
The boys and I are watching their little sister
and brother sleeping. Sboniso keeps saying they
are his babies and his brother likes to touch their
cheeks and smile. We welcomed
Amazulu’anathi Angela Gumede and Unathi
Gumede. We wanted to name our kids and no
one else cause we didn’t get to do that with our
boys.
“ Are you three going to do this everyday? ” my
beautiful wife comes in.
“ How was the work out? ” she has a personal
trainer that is helping her shed off her pregnancy
weight.
serif">“ she’s working me hard but I’m not
complaining. I can already see the results ”
she looks so sweaty and very sexy.
“ don’t lose too much weight baby. I don’t
want a skinny wife ” she laughs.
“ boys let’s go and make a snack ” they
scream yeah and Ama cries.
“ go on love. I’ll take her ” she takes the
boys and they leave.
I pick Ama and shoo her until she stops
crying. My wife is breastfeeding them and
she’s happy with that. Who am I to argue
with that. Dad is now staying with us and
my wife is happy that he finally agreed and I
am too. My phone rings and it’s
skhumbuzo.
“ Skhu unjani bafo? ( how are you brother?
)”
“ Eish man I don’t have good news ” I put
Ama down and walk out of the nursery.
“ what’s wrong? ” I’m walking to my office.
“ USbusiso is missing. We don’t know
where he is ” what?
“ When did that happen and where? ” I log
on in my computer and type in some codes
and search him.
“ It’s been three months bro. He has just
vanished. We have looked for him
everywhere but we can’t find him. Even our
seer doesn’t see him dead or alive. ” what
the fuck does that mean?.
“ And you’re telling me now skhu?! ”
“ I know I’m sorry ” his tracker was switched
off when he left Durban.
“ his tracker was switched off when he left
Durban on the N3 ”
“ He has a tracker? ”
“ yes on his body. We track each other but
it looks like someone took it out. Man I wish
you would have told me earlier. Where is
Shani what did she say? ”
“ man they broke up five months ago. Sbu
had finally had enough of Sbani jealousy
and insecurities and always comparing
herself to your wife. She gave him the
ultimatum. ” fuck!. Luh comes in and sits
down.
“ ohk. I will have my brothers to search for
him. They are connected and where I can’t
reach they will. This is so messed up. ”
“ I’m sort bro I know we made a list but the
elders wanted to keep it in the family… . ”
“ fuck that skhu! He’s my brother too! ”
“ I know I know!. Look I’ll keep you posted if
I hear any7 it find something. ”
“ Not if skhu when you do. I’ll do the same. ”
I hang up.
“ what’s wrong baby? ”
“ did you know Sbani and sbu broke up? ”
“ What? No! ”
“ They did love and now sbu has been
missing for three months. Just fucken
imagine! ”
“ Oh my god baby what could have
happened? ”
“ I don’t know but I will find my brother! ”

SOMEWHERE IN SOUTH AFRICA.

I close my room and lock it. Take off my

clothes and shoes then wear my pyjamas
wipe my face with face wipes. I take my
toiletry bag and go to the bathroom to brush
my teeth. I finish and go check the main
door if it’s locked then I hear a car outside
and voices of people.
I slowly open the door and peek outside
and see two men holding another man
between them who looks like he’s drunk
and one there a man facing the drunk man
busy pointing a gun at him.
“ you thought you were untouchable heh.
But look at you now on my mercy on your
knees. The mighty Mbatha. Get him on his
knees!.” They do that and he groans tries to
struggle but the gun man hits him with it. I
yelp and cover my mouth. I’m scared
shitless as I watch what’s happening.
“ I’m not scared of dying and you better kill
me now cause if you don’t… You’ll beg me
to kill you when I find you.” The drunk man
tells him.
“ well say hello to your ancestors and don’t
worry I’ll take care of your family” the gun
man leader says.
The way he said take care. He meant it like
I’m going to kill them or do something bad
to them. He points a gun at him I can see
them cause the moon is full and shining
bright. Our house is the last one on the
street at a corner and there is an open veld
near by so I guess that why they came
here. They going to kill him then dump his
body there. I begin to say a little prayer to
God.
“God I don’t know this man or what he has
done but please don’t let them kill him. I
know he’s only human and he’s not perfect
but please give him another chance. He
has a family I think who loves him and if not
for his sake but for his family’s sake Amen.
”
I open my eyes again then I see the
gunman raising his hand that’s holding a
gun that has a silencer then points it at the
drunk man.
 “see you on the other side Mbatha ” the
gun man says.
“voetsek msunu!. ” Mbatha says.
Then he pulls the trigger and I see when
the first bullet hits him because he groans. I
watch as four more shots get fired on him
and his body falls down and I think he’s
dead and tears fall down. Oh my God he’s
dead! They just shot a man!.
