Five
Annabelle's last daysChapter five
*NARRATED*
Today Mthokozisi asked permission from Annabelle's doctor to take her out of the yard. He looks at himself in the mirror and smiles not believing it's him, he is looking good in a pair of black jeans, a simple blue Nike top and white Jordan kicks.
The weather is a bit cloudy outside and Anna is feeling a little under the weather but she gets ready nonetheless with the help of Trudy of course, she's wearing a floral print dress and black sandals.
"You look beautiful miss Jones," Trudy says smiling.
"Thanks, I'm so nervous. I don't know where Mtho is taking me and I hate not being in control of what's next in my world," Anna says before heaving a sigh.
"Wow my love, you look beautiful." Jonathan says barging into Anna's room without knocking.
"Thanks." Anna says sounding indifferent.
"I'll be in the doctor's office if you'll need anything and have fun on your date," Trudy says before walking out.
"Date?" Jonathan asks with a frown.
Just as Anna is about to reply to his question Mtho knocks and she shouts for him to come in, he walks in and her eyes almost fall out of the socket seeing Mtho, he looks different in the casual clothing. The tight fitting Nike top cling on nicely to his ripped arms.
"Good morning miss Annabelle," he greets with a smile. Anna picks her jaw on the floor before clearing her throat and smiles.
"Good morning Mtho," Johnathan's blood boils when he sees Anna staring at Mtho with a bit of interest, he is now certain more than ever that this man is a thorn in his way and he makes a vow to himself to eliminate him as soon as possible. He storms out livid and unable to hide his anger.
"Shall we?" Ntho asks Anna totally ignoring Jonathan's reaction.
"Where are you taking me?"
"You'll see, you look beautiful by the way," she smiles widely and he can't help but smile too because her smile seems genuine.
*Annabelle*
This man brought me to a noisy place infested with a lot of black people and smoke, I look at him with a shocked expression on my face but he has a smug smile clearly pleased with himself, the driver is also amused by this. This must be a prank or something. He helps me out of the car before placing me gently on the wheel chair, people are starting at me as if I'm some alien.
"What is this place?"
"It's called kwa mai mai," lord even the name is just weird.
He wheels me to a train of tables where a lot of people are sitting and drinking, there are a lot of taxis and a lot of noise. Everyone is trying to speak over the other, I swear it's crazy, there's different kinds of music playing in different cars and the food, i don't think they practice hygiene at all here.
"Today you're going to eat uphuthu and braai meat like a real African woman," I frown.
"Well technically I'm not South African because my father is from Wimbledon in the UK thank you very much," he grins.
"Well I'm your African Tarzan and you are my Jane," I cock my brow and he laughs throwing his head back.
"How do you know about Tarzan and Jane?" He frowns.
"Even poor people watch television," I look down embarrassed.
"I'm sorry," he chuckles.
"Let's eat," he says when they place a huge platter of meat, a white cous cous looking starch and a salsa salad. We are sitting right between other people who are too close for comfort but for some reason I find myself conversing with the lady next to me and I'm actually enjoying myself, yeah I'm having weird crazy fun even the weather is clearing up.
A few hours later....
"That was amazing thank you," I say as we make our way to my room.
"I'm glad you enjoyed yourself, uhm do you mind telling about Liv?" I frown and he scratches his head.
"You like her?" He nods and I smile.
"She's my mother's personal assistant, I don't know much about her but I think she's a good person," he nods.
"Is she married?"
"I doubt, that woman is always working. Working for Kimberly Jones ain't no child's play. I'm a bit tired Mtho, thank you very much for today," I say smiling and he opens the door for me.
*Mthokozisi*
She let loose, she finally let loose and actually laughed and ate the unhygienic food so she said but she was stuffing her cute face, we didn't stay long though because she started getting feverish. It must have been the atmosphere, there was a lot of smoke. After going our separate ways I decided to walk around the house looking for the beautiful chubby lady who caught my attention but something else catches my attention or rather someone else...... Jonny boy is on the phone with his back facing me, he's leaning against the kitchen counter.
"Make it look like a robbery gone wrong, he stays in the maid's quarters on the far left corner of the building," he says then listens.
"Trust me I'm good for it. Besides, when I became the heir to the largest tobacco company in the world I'll hire you as my right hand man," he listens to the person on the line before bursting into a fit of laughter.
I decide to swiftly walk out of the kitchen making sure he doesn't see me.
"We need to stop meeting like this," Liv says bumping into me luckily I'm a bit further from the kitchen.
"Khabazela," she giggles.
"Tell me about the security system in this place," she frowns before chuckling.
"If you think that I'll allow you to harm.....," I placed my hand on her waist before pulling her towards me.
"I'm no criminal and if I were to find myself stealing it would be your heart now I asked you a question ntokazi," and doesn't she melt like butter in my arms.
"There's an alarm system in place, it's said to be impenetrable but then again nobody has tried to break in before," I nod.
"You're sleeping in my room tonight right?" She gasps and I just capture her lips making her feel my hard meat against her stomach.
"Right?" I ask slightly bending my head to meet her height after breaking the kiss.
"Yes Mtho," she responds before biting her lower lip.
*Emily*
I've always been in love with the bad boy types but Jonathan is nothing but a stupid mistake that I'll forever regret and to think I betrayed Annabelle for that inconsiderate leech really breaks my heart. Annabelle was a good friend to me, she took me to all the best places around the world but today here I am suffering and pregnant, I'll probably suffer the same fate as Annabelle or worse i might just die.
"Wake up!" The feeling of ice cold water hits my skin and I turn pale instantly.
"Please," I beg as I'm tied up to a chair, the very next day Jonathan left to mission Annabelle Rico's men came and tied me up.
"Where is he?"
"I'm pregnant please don't hurt my child," he chuckles, he must be the famous Rico that scares my husband witless.
"I'm going to have my men rape you while your husband watches live if you don't tell me where that lying no good husband is, you know he owes me 10 million rand in gambling debt and I always get what's due to me. Rape or his whereabouts, your choice."
"He's back at the Jones mansion in Sandton, he went back to try and get the girl you crippled to marry him then he's going to kill her to pay you your money," I say so fast trying to save my skin.
"That idiot, what makes him think that will work? If I were him I would have taken out a life insurance policy on you then killed you, he has a far greater chance than his idiotic plan. That Jones woman will never allow her daughter to marry that scum."
