SIBA
[3 MONTHS LATER]
I did take up Neo on his offer, I moved in the next following day prior to the day he asked me to move in. I must admit that it was a whole lot better than I actually thought. I got more time to focus on my school work, especially since we going to write preliminary exams in June. I was excited and nervous at the same time. I've been studying really hard and I hope that I will make it..
It was a Saturday morning, Neo, Lethabo and I were out shopping for baby clothes. We had a scan and it's a boy. We have already named him "Itumeleng". Neo is very supportive, and things are better now between us..
He stood behind me and rubbed my tummy as I was holding some cute blue&white outfit
Me: I like this
He kissed me on my neck and bent my knees a little...
Neo: I like it too
Me: We can take it
Neo: Let's take it then
Me: And this bag
Neo: And the bag too
I gave them to Lethabo..
Me: Let's go and pay
KAT
I was discharged about 2 months ago. Unfortunately I had to move out of home because my Mother was impossible. What she put Siba through, the abuse she put her through. She was putting me through the same thing.. With the help of Thabiso, I was able to get a job at Pick n pay. So we renting a room, it's quite affordable. R900 a month.
With everything that's happened, I'm trying to contact Siba so that I could apologize to her.
How I treated her was not fair at all, she didn't deserve it..
I realized that life is too short, my Mother can die anytime. Siba and I we going to be the only family left, the only kids to our Parents. We should continue holding each other and be family.. I sent her an inbox on Facebook asking for her whatsapp contacts, since she changed her old number... Hoping she'll get back to me..
LORRAINE
The firm was going under. With our cases, witnesses and suspects were getting murdered or threatened. We were getting a very bad reputation and we were under investigation. Razor was under investigation
It was a nightmare, clients were pulling out.
Big and reputable clients were pulling out.
We were going broke, and partners wanted to pull out too. It's like I was living in a nightmare that I probably was going to wake up from soon..
The brench manager made his way into the office..
Him: Good morning
Me: Good morning
He sat down..
Him: I believe you want to make a withdrawal on Mr Marè's account?
Me: Yes please
Him: The account has 5mill in it
Me: Yes that's true
Him: Unfortunately we can't give you the money
Me: Why not? I am his wife.. He left everything to me, it said so in his will
Him: Yes but Mr Marè clearly signed that this money should go to his Son.. Neo Marè
Me: I understand but..
Him: His Son is still alive, so the money is his. The money belongs to him, and we can't give it you.. We apologize
Me: I understand.. Thank you, thank you very much
Him: You welcome
This was a disaster..
MAHLODI
My Mom and I went to a beauty Spa today, just spend the day together..
Ma: This is better than my initial plan
Me: The Marè firm is really taking a downfall Ma
Ma: Exactly what should be happening!
Me: It's not Lorraine's.. It's Neo's legacy
Ma: I don't care! All I care about is Lorraine losing everything, and you better not tell Neo about this!
KAT
Me: Here you go
Lady: Thank you
She took her receipt and left..
I checked Facebook again, and Siba had replied. She gave me her whatsapp number, I smiled.. Today I was working at the liquor store so it wasn't that busy...
NEO
I received a text from Ges, he wanted to meet
I looked at Siba and Lethabo eating ice cream..
Me: Babies
They looked at me..
Me: Let's go, I have to go somewhere
Siba: Okay we'll finish off our ice creams at home.. Come baby
Lethabo: Okay Aunty
We took our things and made our way to the car..
