MICHAEL
I have to get out of here. I drive out and I have nowhere to go. I've taken time off work to take care of her, yet here I am running away. That girl is sexy man. After driving around aimlessly I decide to go back, I have to make her mine. I walk in and she's fast asleep. I guess it's her medication. She needs the rest though, my princess works way too hard. I settle on the couch next to the customized medical bed I got just for her. I turned this spare bedroom into a hospital room to accomodate all the machinery required. She got me in my feels I tell you.
Just then she blinks and opens her eyes.
Me: You are beautiful.
She smiles and I think blushes.
Her: Thank you.
Me: I couldn't stay away. I just want to be around you. Do you need anything? More food?
Her: I'm ok thanks Mike, aunty Ellen just made me a snack.
I just stare at her lips. I can't help it.
Her: Earth to Mike.
Me: I'm sorry I haven't had to ask anyone out, since I was in high school.
Her: I can't help you. I've never..
Me: Never ever?
Her: Never ever what? You don't know what I was gona say.
Me: Who did you make that video for Sweetness?
She goes grey same time.
Her: You saw that?
If I wasn't looking at her I wouldn't have heard her.
Me: Best thing I've ever seen. I'm going to tell our grandkids it's how I fell in love with their nana. How do you say grandma in your language?
Her: Gogo
Me: Yes gogo.....
Her: Wait. Rewind. You love me?
Me: From my whole monologue. That's the only thing you heard? I thought you were going to be freaked out by me wanting grandkids from you.
Her: I love you too.
It's my turn to blush and as a yellow man, I know I'm pink.
And that is my green light to kiss her. I can tell she's never done this before, so I take it easy, leading her. She catches on fast and things get heated. She moans in my mouth and I'm on her. I move my hand to her boob and she moans and opens her legs to welcome me. I stop.
Me: We don't have to do this right now.
Her: But I want to. You don't want to make love to me?
Me: No. I mean yes I will make passionate love to you. But I want to wait till you get better.
Her: Oh.
Me: Don't be disappointed. I will f@ck you till you forget your name.
She smiles.
Me: Plus there are certain things I need to sort out. People I need to cut out.
Her: Oh.
Me: I just need your patience. Because I want to possess all of you.
She grabs me and kisses me, so deep. So wet. So intense.
JABHILE
It's Friday and Dr Andile gave me a clean bill of health. This has been the best week of my life. Yes, I was battling Malaria, but I did that with my man beside me. Yes my man, saying it in my head feels so good, I can't wait to say it out loud. I can walk now, but he hasn't let me. I can lotion myself, but he hasn't let me. I want to cook for him before I go back to my place, but I know he will blow a gasket. I asked aunty Ellen to bring a few things for me.
I prepare a spread. My favourites only. I know it would have been a better idea to ask aunty Ellen what he likes. But I just want to introduce myself to him. We have kissed. Have been naked in the shower together, but he hasn't touched my vagina or nuffie as I call it. I wonder how long I should wait to give it up. Steve Harvey says 90 days, I believe I've waited all my life so that rule doesn't work for me. I want to be his dessert tonight. But I will bake a cheesecake just in case. This man has been depriving me of dick bathong.
He walks in at 17:30 looking exhausted. I run to him. Yes I can run now. I make him fall on the couch and am plastered on him like a rash. Yes a rash. Hahaha. I give him a long lingering kiss.
Me: Welcome home baby.
Him: I could get used to this. You know you have to do this everyday because I love it.
Me: I love doing it too.
We continue kissing. Then I stop and get up.
Me: Now go shower baby, dinner is served.
Him: Do you mean you cooked?
Me: Yes and it's not magwinya
I go shower as he does the same. I settle on short shorts. He bought me short shorts, so I will wear them today. I wonder where he thought I would wear them. But it's just the 2 of us. The table is set. He comes to the dining table. He looks surprised by the spread.
Him: Love did you do this by yourself? It looks like a lot of work and you know you still need to take it easy. I don't want you to relapse. You are still fragile.
Me: Baby please breathe.
Him: Sweetness, we have our whole life for you to do things for me baby.
Me: Sambulo, I cooked all my favourites today, I want you to know what type of woman I am. I don't shy away from challenges. My life was a challenge. I started working at the age of 14. Heck I started doing my own laundry when I was 4. I got a secret 2nd job at 16, so I could stash away money. I ran away from home the day I wrote my final grade 12 paper. I came to Joburg and started selling amagwinya. I enrolled myself in college. I already have 1 diploma completed. I now still sell, have a full time job and study. You have kept me in this house for 12 days. Sleeping, eating, watching t.v. Did I mention sleeping? My body is in shock from doing nothing. This on the table is my way of showing gratitude.
Him: Come here.
I didn't even notice I am crying. I sit on his lap.
Me: You gave me rest. A gift I have never received from anyone before.
He holds me tight. So long.
Him: Come let's eat. Let me see what my woman is made of.
Me: I can't believe your appetite!!!
Him: This was the best meal I've ever eaten. Baby this is food from all over Africa. My favourites from the different countries I've been in. Are you a chef?
Me: I'd love to do that. But the courses are too expensive. I learn from tv and watching people cook.
Him: Love I think I overdid it. I won't be able to move from this table.
I get up and bring in the cheesecake.
He takes out his phone and types something. 5 minutes later the doorbell rings. I go open, Matt walks in.
Matt: Hi.
He goes straight to the table, grabs a plate and starts eating.
After 2 hours there are no left overs. It's a good thing I dished up for aunty Ellen before I set the table.
Matt: Thank you our wife for this. I thought this fool here was kidding, you are indeed the best.
He gives me a hug and leaves.
Me: Let me help you to bed so I can...
Before I finish there's another knock I open. 2 men walk in.
Them: Good evening sir; mam.
Mike: Hi guys. Thank you for coming at such sort notice.
I'm still trying to figure out who they are when they start clearing the table.
Mike: You will let yourselves out. Good to see you again. Now baby, please come tuck me in, I can't move.
I chuckle and I half walk, half carry him to his room.
Him: Please help me undress.
I start with the pants and remove his underwear as well. As I go down his member springs out and hits me in the face.
Me: Blap
We burst out laughing. I grab it with my mouth. And he moans so loud. I have seen so many videos of how this is done. But as usual Mr spoils the moment by pulling me up. And looks me in the eye.
Him: Jabhile Sweetness Skosana. Not yet please. It will be your first time. I want it to be complete. Lacking nothing. With no ET's lurking in the corner.
Me: But I want it so bad.
Him: Do you know it's going to hurt? You just healed from Malaria. You want new pain?
Me: From you. Yes.
Him: But I asked for time to conclude certain things.
I've heard enough. I'm so hurt I just walk out of his room.
He runs after me. Grabs me and lifts me up like I'm nothing. He walks back in his room. I'm straddling him and he has me against the wall.
Him: Jabhile you will not disrespect me like that. Why are you acting like a spoilt teenager?
I'm so scared right now. I just look at him
Him: This relationship will not be based on sex. I am not ready to worship your perfect body and you will respect that.
I can tell I'm being scolded. But his face looks more hurt than angry. He takes my hand and puts it on his very hard manhood.
Him: I want you as much as you want me. So get off that high horse and relax. If I wasn't scared you'd relapse I'd put you in a cold shower.
