WHERE DID I GO WRONG?CHAPTER 07
Mbali came to the sitting room and threw herself on the couch , her face says "look at me because why not ? I am pretty afterall" I could look at her for the whole years .
her: starring is rude jeez .
she said taking the remote from the table.
her:what are you watching ?
me: nothing .
she nodded and changed to 322 , she increased the whole volume .
I took my phone and scrolled down Instagram watching the reels , they are so addictive .
her: besides knowing you're sis sindisiwe , i know you from somewhere else .
I looked at her confused , I am not famous . she lowered the volume .
her:GIRL ? you're THEE FAMOUS KHUMALO HEIR's wife , jeez i know you from X , facebook , Instagram all this social media platforms .
the journalists not me , I faked a smile .
her: you're living the life of my dream , but what are you doing here in Hammanskraal?
girl you're only 14 shut your big mouth up .
me:I just miss home .
her:oh I understand .
she smiled .
her: you're so pretty though .
me:thank you .
She said I'm living the life of her dreams ? Only if she knew the pain I am hiding behind all the pictures they saw in social media .
money can make a person happy right ? well it doesn't , all you get to do is spend and get whatever you want .
we chatted trying to catch up and apparently her mother died because of drug overdose .
hours passed and it was around 19:00 . I was preparing dinner , she was helping me .
my phone beeped a message . I checked and it was thulani saying he's outside .
me:I will be back .
I said wiping my hands , I'm not taking off the apron. Mbali looked at me with "I'm watching you eyes" this child think I'm her age mate . I laughed and walked out of the house .
I saw his red G63 parking behind my C63 , He's inside the car , I knocked on his window.
he lowered the window , he's wearing black shades .
him:get inside .
I walked to the passenger side then got inside .
me:hey .
he smiled , if only he wasn't abusive , I would say he is very handsome .
him:hi sindi , you're good ?
me:yes .
he nodded .
him:I bought you this .
he said taking a bouquet of white roses that has money notes and a present bag from the backseat .
I faked a smile .
me:thank you .
him: I'm trying by all means to make it right , please meet me half way .
me:i will .
him:I love you sindisiwe , I know it was a typa arranged shit but trust me , I love you .
he took off his shades , his shiny eyes were there to do wonders .
him: you'll learn to forgive me right ?
he said looking deep in my eyes , I nodded .
him:words mama .
me:as time goes by yes .
he pecked my lips unexpectedly so .
him:good .
he got out of the car then opened the door for me , he is wearing his black tuxedo suit,white shirt and white AF1 sneakers.
he went to the car boot then took out my luggage bag .
me:thank you .
he smiled , killer smile leh !
him:I need the C63 I'm leaving the G63 behind .
he handed me the car keys .
me:let me go get the keys for you .
I walked to the house with my bag , flowers and the present bag .I took the car keys then went to give him .
him:have a goodnight .
I nodded , he got inside the car then hooted as he drove off , I waved . I got inside the G63 then parked it inside the garage . my dad hasn't threw away his Cressida ? yhoo .
I went to the house , it's only Mbali and I . pretty since left in the afternoon and dad went to chill with his friend .
