Nomzamo's POV

*UMABO KA NOMZAMO & NKOSENYE*

After the white wedding yesterday I came back home to emlazi not because I was still a part of their family nop but it's tradition
The girls and I are just sitting in the outside cottage waiting for the dlamini's to come and fetch their wife which is me

The dlamini rituals are done at their house in umhlanga instead of Glenwood Ka Gogo

Lee:"umakoti wakwa dlamini madoda "

Me:"yesss it is I and I will be here all week "

Nale:"manje you gonna do it ?"

Me:"do what ?"

I know exactly what she means and I have been asking myself that question mainly because I can't talk to my friends because we are all still virgins

Nale:"you know what I'm talking about "

Amahle:"this elevated too quickly "

Me:"true that "

Nale:"----

Naledi is disturbed by the voices singing outside ,the time reads 05:00 am in the morning and the are really late they were supposed to arrive at 03:00am

Me:"girls it's time "

I cover myself with the blanket since that's what I'm actually supposed to do I have already been claimed out at the sacred place

Lee and naledi and amahle also cover themselves with the blankets ,and mind you it's actually very hot right now and it's only like the wee hours of the morning this blanket is just way to heavy

Amahle:'umuntu ozosha la "

Me:'kyashisa "

Lee:'the things we do for our friends "

We cover our faces with the blankets bit we try peeping a bit so we can actually see the way

Ma:"aiiike mantombazane sekuyisikhathi"

My mother cannot come with us today because it's against tradition for the mother of the bride to go the grooms house during umabo wentombazane

Ma:"ohhh zamo mntanami I'm prooud of you "

She uncovers me with the blanket

Me:"thank you mama "

She kisses my cheek and covers me with the blanket again and she opens the door for us to start walking to where the girls are singing

My dad walks me out of the room

Baba:"ungabheki emuva "

That's a way of not getting badluck in officially going to have a new family

A lady directs us to the car we are to use while my family members follow behind in their cars
It's like a half an hour drive from umlazi to umhlanga we are not exactly going to nkosenye's house we hired a complex just three houses away only just for the day

We finally arrive at the complex and I change into a purple long dress and no shoes and I cover myself with the blanket and the girls wear the same thing that I'm wearing

We walk barefoot to nkosenye's house since  it's close by the girls that fetched me from the house are from Nkosenye's house ,I'm now accompanied my girl group the girls that were singing with me ngo membeso wami
