Nkosenye's POV

I'm lying on my bed browsing through my phone looking at the pictures of the WHS derby man such a bummer I couldn't go because I was still comforting my mom
This fire took a lot in her

My dad yells my name downstairs I jump up from the bed , wear my push ins and head downstairs

Dad:"Nkosenye"

Me:"I'm here Baba "

Dad:"please go buy these things for me "

Me:"this is a lot of grocery Mos"

Dad:"your grandmother asked me to "

Me:"okay then "

Dad:"I'm sending the money via wallet "

Me:"okay "

Olwethu is gone back to res so it's back to me being the only child
Amahle lives with my grandmother for the season because it's much more close she goes to George Campbell

Well she's only coming back December holidays she's found grade 9 only 2 years younger than me and she's the last born
We talk but not everyday cause she's the busiest teenager you can ever meet me and her have twin vibes nje

I head upstairs and change into my black Adidas tracksuit I own about 6 of these you can't blame me it's comfortable
I grab my iPhone and head out to the keyboard and take the Mercedes C63

On my way I jam to amapiano as usual mostly 'sengizwile by aymos and young stunn'

No that's a very good track I'm singing along to the lyrics I arrive at cornubia mall when today this mall is better than driving to a full mall I hate that

The notification that dad sends R10 000+ into my account comes through I head to checkers

I'm at this cleaning aisle it's not a lot of things yet a hand lands on my elbow it's an elderly woman wearing all white

Her:"you have to get married to her it's for the both of your sakes the more time you are wasting havoc arises "

Me:"I'm sorry maybe you mistaking me for Some one else ma I'm just a school worse ngisemncane kabi ukuthi ngingashada"

The lady chuckles

Her:"nozogcina nishadile kodwa abaphansi abakhethile kumele kwenzeke mfana wam bekezela"

With that he disappears to the next aisle

Weird!! Angithi

I continue shopping as if she said nothing and by the time I'm fine I have a while damn full cart

I pay for the things and head home

My dad tells me to leave the things in the boot thank god saves me some energy I head inside the house and Mr Khumalo is sitting in the lounge with my dad

Me:"hey Mr k "

Khumalo:"hey Nkosenye"

Me:"is it that worse that you decided to come to my house on a Sunday "

Khumalo:"well boy this is important"

Dad:"sit down son"

Me:"what's this about ?"

Mom:"just sit down "

I sit down patiently waiting for what the have to say

Khumalo:"well i don't know how to say this to you but here goes you have a gift my boy it's a the gift of flame you can set things on fire but thing is you haven't been able to use it "
