"Baby, wake up. I brought you food. " Ndlalifa wakes me."What time is it, Ndlalifa? " He checks his wristwatch," 7pm Baby sukuma kukhona ngizokuvunza. " I wake up he feeds me until I'm full. I take a bath, and wear my night dress we have had sex I don't know what he is waiting for because I'm ready.

"What's on your mind ?" He seems like he's deep in his thoughts." I can't stay here for 3 months, I have to go back to Durban. I can't leave the business in my brothers hands for a long time they are careless. " I sigh."It's fine. You can leave. I will be okay. I am a big girl. " I kiss his cheeks." Are you sure I can see no one wants you here?" I hold his hands." I will call you if anything happens."

The next morning

Ndlalifa is going back to Durban today. I'm busy packing clothes for him when I'm done. I go to the main house to make him breakfast and food for the road as I'm busy making food. Gugu enters "chabo uyiqanda mina ngifika lana. I was busy going up and down feeding everyone in this yard, even cats and dogs doing their laundry. I didn't even have time for my husband ." I fold my hands," but he didn't care about you, Gugu, but mine does care about me he loves me. Don't blame me for your husband's mistakes. I want to make food for my husband, ngishayise ngomoya. "She raises her hand. Gatsha walks in ," Did I disturb anything?" I smile at him." No, you didn't. Gugu useyocelisa ingane angithi Gugu" she nods and walks out." I saved you," says Gatsha, laughing " in case you have forgotten bhuti Gatsha, I'm from umlazi she doesn't scare me I have seen worse" we laugh.

Ndlalifa is now leaving. I give him his lunch and kiss him . "Sikhona phela nathi," says Gatsha we laugh." I love you, MaNgcolosi Gatsha ugade unkosikazi wami angifuni ukumuzwa ekhala." He gets in the car,"khululeka bafo themba mina. " Ndlalifa drives off, waving we wave back. I sigh in frustration.
