It one of those days where I wish I could sleep forever it really depressing not having a job, having to depend on my grandmother

I've just finished dressing up my friend literally forced me into going out with her saying I need to let Lose and have some fun, I'm even surprised my grams agreed to this, I guess she want me to let Lose a bit

I'm waiting for Thandi she said she's coming to fetch me, I wonder with who because when we talked it was like she's coming with a car.

Thandi is my childhood friend we used to do everything together until she went to further her studies at UKZN and I had to stay at home with my grandma, we sort of became distant our lives are different now, I'm still a village girl while she's a slay queen I was even surprised when she hit me up on WhatsApp talking about going out I mean it been 3 years without talking, I'm not even sure what will we talk about.

She calls me telling me to come down the road she's in a black BMW I wonder who it belong to, anyway I see the car while going down the street, I guess she also sees me coz she get out of the car to meet me half way, and wow she has changed soo much.

Thandi : "oh mnganami" , she says running towards me with her arms open. She has always been the bubbly one and I'm a shy one.
Me : "Hey Matha" I say also meeting her trying to sound happy as she is, honestly I would prefer if I was at home sleeping.
Thandi: "Unjan kodwa?" she says hugging me
Me : " Ngyaphila awusemuhle kanje" I say looking at her smiling she's really beautiful
Thandi : "Ohh Thank you My friend you not bad your self but we need to Change that outfit mngani ay it not gonna work no offense" I hhe umuntu usho engi offend vele
Me : "Kodwa Matha you know I don't have anything to change to" I say looking at my self feeling a little embarrassed, my dress is a bit worn out but it the best dress I own.
Thandi : "relax friend I got you, that's why we'll go to my flat first then from there we will go out"
Me : "won't we be late"? I say looking at the time
Thandi : "No we won't, cummon let's go" we get in the car, she's the one driving
Me : "haibo Matha Suwaba nemoto"? She just laughed
Thandi : " No silly this is my Boyfriend 's car he lend it to me to come fetch you so we will get there on time"
Me: "mmmh OK"

We get to her flat, it beautiful and neat, she has been always a neat freak, Me on the other side It a different storry.
Me : "Yaz I thought ukuth uhlala e res"
Thandi: I did, I moved here on my second year, Sakhi got it for me, he wanted to see me anytime he wants and we couldn't at res " I guess Sakhi is the boyfriend.
Me :" ohk, ay Your boyfriend seems like  his rich"
Thandi : "As if I'll date someone poor looking like this" she says flicking her weave
Me : "chesa wena girl" I say laughing
Thandi : "so I bought a dress for you to wear since we not the same size" she say this taking out a dress, can I just say I don't see my self wearing this it so short
Me : "ay ngeke it won't fit mngani imfishane lengubo" I'm a big girl so I don't wear just anything
Thandi: "it will fit and it not that short, take off that dress wear this one" sigh! I do as she say and dammn! If it wasn't so short I would've loved it, it fits me so well
Thandi: "wow! Yabona I told you izokulingana" she says this proud of herself making me do a turn around, she's busy praising her self lapho Mina I'm not happy nje, yes it gorgeous and it fits me like a glove but ay maan
Me: "Yinhle yona" lol, the eye I get for saying that
Thandi : "Ay Nandi unganglingi mina sit down let me do your face" haibo! nangu umuntu engenza I slay queen njengaye bo, I just sit down and let her do as she pleases it no use arguing with her.

She's done doing my make up, she gives me her weave to wear, phela Mina ngizilukele I snoop kodwa sihle kabi nje
Me: aybo Matha I'll go like this I don't want your weave
Thandi: "aibo we Nandi yayazi lendawo esiya kuyona ngcela ugqoke bandla" she helps me with it even though I'm not happy, angaz why she wants to go out with me coz we grew apart the time Aya kofunda, manje she's trying to make me look like her ay doesn't she have friends abama slay queen njengaye, but I must say I look really beautiful ngath nje omunye umuntu.

She calls us a cab to take us there.
Me: aibo kanti are we not using a car
Thandi: "No friend we are going there to get drunk, I won't be able to drive us back"
Me: "if I knew how to drive I was gonna drive us back, you know I don't like alcohol, I'll drink 1 glass"
Thandi : "ay we'll see, asambe I cab is outside"
We get in the cab and Thandi tells the driver where to.

We get to the club and it full of fancy people I feel out of place immediately, Thandi sees that.
Thandi : "Relax mngani let's have some fun I'll be by your side" she take my hand, and I relax a little bit

She orders some wine, we drink it, It not even nice but ke sothini angfikanga namali yambona nje yena kuth uya enjoy, while we drinking and having some fun the waiter comes to us with another bottle, he says some guy bought it for us, Thandi is too happy to accept, I just carry on drinking, dancing

We drank till dawn, ive never had this much fun before, drink kept on coming.
