Insert 88:

The gangster girl: 

Insert 88:

Zakhona was rushed to the hospital ,she got injured during the fight inside the ring and fell down immediately.

The hospital had no one else's number but Mbuso's ,so they called him to rush to the hospital cause they were all panicking,worst part is she is pregnant.

.

Mbuso just parked his car outside and is rushing inside as the receptionist told him that they can't let him come to see her at the moment cause the situation is serious ,and he decided to wait on the benches even though it wasn't that easy to just sit and wait 

.

An hour later ,the doctor came to him as he stood up immediately ,his shirt was unbuttoned

Dr: she survived

Mbuso: mxm I don't care about her ,I want to know if my baby is fine , please tell me our baby is fine please

Dr: sir you should not panic ,it is not healthy. Everything will be fine but at the moment we cannot discharge her 

Mbuso: you can even let her stay fora whole month mxm ,but ...can I see them I want to know if they are fine

Dr: yes you can ,but her brain almost got damaged but it isn't damaged at all. We were told she was in a ring of boxing ,and that isn't good at all ,boxing is not good for her while she is pregnant also smoking 

Mbuso: yes doctor

Dr: it looks like no one is trying to tell her how to behave while she is pregnant ,there are many things that she does that she shouldn't do. That are even unhealthy just like smoking ,worst part boxing can make her hurt ,what about the baby then?

Mbuso: I have been trying to warn her but ...it looks like I am failing to take care of her and my baby

Dr: I didn't mean you must blame yourself , please follow me 

He nods as he followed the doctor to the Ward room ,when he got in with the doctor Zakhona's eyes were closed

Dr: she hasn't woke up since the injury but soon she will wake up

Mbuso nods

Dr: I will leave you but not for a long time ,she is resting and needs more resting 

Mbuso: okay 

Dr: thank you ,I will be back to come check you and her (she says leaving)

.

Mbuso comes closer to the bed Zakhona is sleeping in ,the bandage is wrapped around her head and her arms. She had little scars on her face and one on her lips 

But she still looks beautiful ,even more beautiful the scars suit her ??

He sat on the chair next to the bed and held her unbandaged arm 

Oh..he held her hand 

Mbuso:(with a low tone) why?

He didn't even know what to say but in a couple of minutes Zakhona opens her eyes 

Zakhona: ouch ..where am I?

She says touching her head with her one hand ,and looking at herself , touching her face

Mbuso: shh stop moving you I'll hurt yourself,don't worry I am here

Zakhona: why am I (she is lost Shem)

Mbuso:(clenching jaws) you are in the hospital because you got injured during the boxing fight

Zakhona: what?

Mbuso nods as he let go of her

Mbuso:(sigh) Zakhona the doctor told me there are lot of things you shouldn't be doing while you are pregnant. You almost made us lose our baby again

Zakhona: (exhales) I am sorry (as she swallows hard)

Mbuso: your sort doesn't help ,we could have lost our baby and I know you wouldn't have she'd even a single year

Zakhona: what do you mean

Mbuso: you didn't even when we lost our first baby did you?

Zakhona: Mbuso...(with a low tone) who said it didn't hurt me ,I also felt bad about that 

Mbuso: mm but you didn't even cry but you felt bad?

Zakhona: I did cry ,even when I was telling you the story I was crying what do you mean

Mbuso: you wasn't crying for our baby ,you was crying forme 

Zakhona: for you?

Mbuso: you have to sit down and ask yourself that were those tears for your baby or me? Cause really my mind is telling me that you felt bad that you couldn't bear me twins anymore. 

Zakhona: I should have cried for you?huh

Mbuso: You should start being responsible,you are going to be a mother ,no longer a girl who is living a life of being a gangster ,smoking and drinking alcohol

Zakhona: Mbuso ngaphuza nawe utshwala nje 

Mbuso: that is not an excuse haw ,

Zakhona starts couching harder and Mbuso stood immediately and go get water for her in the room in the corner 

Mbuso: drink water 

Zakhona takes the cup and drinks the water and gave the cup to him back ,she can't even look up at him because of shame about her face 

Mbuso:(sighs) you are beautiful come on ,stop underating your beauty just because of the scars 

He says going to put the cup on top of the table

Zakhona: Mbuso ngyaxolisa 

She says tears forming in her eyes

Mbuso: it's fine Zakhona there's no need to feel bad I am over it 

Zakhona: No I should feel bad ,I am a bad mother you are right. But I don't understand you have been and at me since early when we went to Khaya's..grave what is wrong 

Mbuso:I wasn't mad at you ,but at myself

Zakhona: for what?

Mbuso: there are reasons

When Zakhona was about to ask the obvious question he stops her an says

Mbuso: reasons that I cannot tell the to you. They will get between us 

Zakhona: fine (coughs) my head is spinning

Mbuso:(smiles) ngyakucela 

He says brushing her cheeks like a little baby

Zakhona: ouch you are hurting me 

Mbuso: sorry ,but we are fine now okay?

Zakhona: yeah ,but Mbuso ..I..can't stop smoking 

Mbuso sigh

Zakhona: you found me smoking ,wangithelela futh while I was a smoking girl ,so now you just suddenly want to change me 

Mbuso: hawu imihlola ke lena ,you don't want to stop smoking while you know very well you are pregnant?

Zakhona: I promise I won't smoke a lot maybe three times a week

Mbuso:..arghh ,fine but not once a week

Zakhona: (smiling)cela ungiqabula ke

Mbuso: angifuni 

He says smiling as he pretended like leaving the room 

Mbuso:(turned to her) I am not leaving I sent to go fetch something for you inside the car 

Zakhona: mxm 

Mbuso: you are mad at that I don't want to kiss you? Nje Wena you are smoking so ...mina I don't kiss smoking people

Zakhona:(opens her mouth) haa really?

Mbuso: ngyadlala 

He says coming to her and attacked her with a little long baby kiss on the lips

Mbuso:(pulls out) I love you 

Zakhona: I hate you 

They both laugh a little as she cough again

As he left ,and went into the car. He took the ring he once proposed with to Zakhona. He wants to propose again

He went back into her wardrobe inside the hospital and gets in folding it into his arms

Zakhona: you said you had something you have for me 

Mbuso: yes I do 

He sits on the chair and she her the ring 

Mbuso: last time when I said I want to marry you ,I said it with my mouth but I think maybe you will change your answer when I ask you doing actions 

Zakhona: Mbuso...

Mbuso: Please ,will you marry me and be Zakhona Gatsheni 

Zakhona: I don't know I really don't (she says with a sad face)

Mbuso: don't you love me?

Zakhona: I do 

Mbuso: don't you wish to spend your whole life with me and our baby ,as a family?in our own house?

Zakhona:($sigh) of course I do 

Mbuso: that can happen ,it's possible only if ..you allow me to put this ring on your finger

Zakhona: Mbuso I am confused (sniffing) what about my parents?what are they saying where they are?

Mbuso: I thought we were no longer enemies and they also know that Babe

Zakhona: I know it..

The doctor got in as they got disturbed 

Dr: sorry to disturb but sir ..the visiting hours are over.We need to do more check-ups on her

He stood up ,and shove the ring on Zakhona's right had finger .He didn't care even if she didn't say yes
