Thingolwenkosazana
I can't believe Khetha, he just left me standing there in the dark.

I mean after the incident, I was just trying so hard to pull myself together but I couldn't, I spent about an hour in the bathroom just crying, I couldn't believe I pulled this. When I saw Khetha I wanted to die, I mean he doesn't know I joined the family tradition worse I murdered his father, things are just going south,  I get inside and it's dead silent people are asleep I go to my room and I find the door wide open

Panick mode!

"what!, no no no" Me

My bag is not on the bed

"where's my bag!!" I quickly close the door

"ohhh no" tears escape my eyes

I was really panicking, I open all the shelves maybe I'm losing my mind I probably thought I left it on the bed, I open all the wardrobe doors and there it was, I was a little bit relieved, I quickly go through my clothes no sign of my t shirt and the knife, I was devastated. I just cried, I didn't have a plan

"how can I be so stupid" Me

I drag myself to bed but I refuse to give up, I look everywhere for this t shirt nothing, i finally decided to go to bed, I cover myself with the big pillow and I fall asleep.

The next day

"Thingo!" "Thingolwenkosazana"

"Yebo" I drag myself to the door, I open it and I find Mvelo on the door. Why is he so sexy god!

"they need you downstairs" Mvelo

"why?" Me

"I don't know, I was sent here" Mvelo

"oh"

I then remember, I lost the knife and the t shirt, I had hot flashes immediately

I go back to bed, I take my phone it's 8:48, I can't believe I slept for so long, I was tired, I look for my things again and still can't find them, I step into a shower and I put my summer dress with slippers and I make my way to the kitchen, they were making noise, people laughing and all of that, I didn't have energy

"sanibonani" Me

They all turned around

"finally! we've been up since 6:00 peel some potatoes" aunt Grace

There were alot of young girls who are my age, I wanted to ask who they were but I was just too exhausted, I had a bad dream and I couldn't actually tell what it means,i drag myself to the side of the kitchen, it is a big kitchen, i take some potatoes and I start peeling, they were having their conversations laughing and I was just listening, some were shocked that Khoza was being buried 2 days after he was murdered, they were saying why so early what's the rush apparently Khethamahle made that suggestion

My mind was somewhere else, these girls were asking alot of questions about me and I find it very uncomfortable, I turn to wash the potatoes in the sink and I see Britney and some other lady who looks familiar talking to Qaphelani through the window and they were coming to the kitchen. What the fuck is going on here why is Britney here

"heyyy oh youuuu guys, I missed you so much!" Britney

I quickly look away and I continue washing the potatoes

"Thingo come and greet Britney and Zakithi" aunt Grace

Shit!

I turn around and I see Britney with a huge Colgate smile
