Chapter 54

Sani

*****I switched off my phone after seeing Nhlaka's text message. I changed into my pj's and laid in bed with my eyes closed. He hurt me honestly. I cried silently thinking, I mean thinking hard on whether to leave him or stay along. I know I love this guy a lot. Yes he's hurt me but I am not letting him go. I need him to go for therapy and get help. Yes that's what I'll tell him. He must go for therapy. Yes then I'll give him a second chance...I love him and care for him so yeah.... I'll just give him another chance...... I dozed off.****

****i arrived in KZN and went straight to my room. I woke up and did my hygenie process then I went downstairs for breakfast.****

Thando: daddy

Me: yebo baba

Mama: uhmm I have an announcement

****we all looked at her****

Mama: I am seeing someone and he wants to marry me

****okay no body expected this. Mom seemed to know because she didn't look surprised.****

Mama: please say something

Ma: uhmm congrats sisi

Dad: who is this man

Muzi: there will be no wedding la

Nkazi: Muzi

Muzi: no. Who is this man?

Mama: Bandile Xulu

Dad: yho Khethiwe

Muzi: mama mara why

Mama: Muzi don't I deserve to be happy too. It's been years since your father passed away. He's not coming back anymore and I feel lonely. I also need someone

Nkazi: how long have you been seeing him?

Mama: 6 years

****we were all shocked excluding my mom of course****

Dad: yho does he know that you are a princess and a queen

Mama: he does

Muzi: so he makes you happy?

Mama: yes he does

Muzi: okay then. You have my blessing.

****he stood up and left the table. I stood up and followed him. He ran up to his room and cried. I got in and went down to reach him on the floor. I squeezed his shoulder. He wiped his tears and looked at me.****

Me: Muzi don't do this. Did you see how happy she looked

Muzi: I am scared for her man

Me: she's old and she can make her own decisions. I am sure baba Nqobi would let her go and wants her to be happy

Muzi: I love her man and all I want is to see her happy.

****knock knock. I went to the door and it was maKhethiwe. I let her in. She also went down to reach her son. She hugged him and he cried again. I left the room to give them privacy. I went back down and it was cleared. I went to the kitchen and made myself food.*****
