SNEAKY LINK#39
Mandilakhe looked at Nobantu as she shopped for the things she needed. He sighed as he called her.
"Mandilakhe I told yo..."
"Please just listen."
"Talk."
"I'm sorry I did you dirty like that. Honestly mama didn't push me I was always afraid that you'll find someone better than me. You're beautiful Endy and that scared me especially how ambitious you were. Still are. I just needed safety and I went about it the wrong way."
"It's fine I'm over that."
"Do you think there's still a chance for us?"
"No I would never get back with you. Mandilakhe you're insecure you do need help. You'll push away every woman who has a voice because you need security. Trust me you're still going to cheat on your wife because she's not what you need, she's what you want. You know she's going to forgive you everytime because you're her knight trust me you'll destroy her. I saw the woman you were with that day. She's also not your type she's the desperate type. You need a strong willed woman."
"I met someone she's my son's nanny I like her and after today I think I love her. She's more like you just that she's kind of controlling."
"You don't need that in your life. You need someone who's going to meet you halfway in everything. I'm sure she doesn't want you supporting your family."
"Yeah."
"I was her once. I think you should give yourself a break from relationships. You'll be okay."
"Thank you and for what it's worth I still love you."
"Good for you. I got this other guy he has a girlfriend though but gives the best ***."
"So you're n..."
"I'm not made for relationships. Man always feel threatened by me."
"Don't sell you self shot. I'll still wait I have that hope that one day you'll be mine."
"St...
"Endy I won't wait for you."
"Who's that he so..."
"Bye I'm blocking you."
She cut the call as he frowned that sounded like his brother. He called him.
"Mfethu."
"Hey where are you?"
"Cape Town why?"
"No nothing."
"Okay."

Nobantu's aunt looked at her husband walking in the house. The whole family was here. She sighed looking at her hands trying to keep her tears at bay.
She never thought at 45 she would be divorcing the love of her life. Her husband sat down and cleared his throat.
"Why are we here Xhanti?"
"Umh tata I did something I don't regret it but I regret how I went about it."
"What is it?"
"I cheated on my wife and the girl is pregnant."
"You did what?!! Is that why you want a divorce?!!"
"Relax Makoti."
"I love that girl tata. I thought maybe I would marry her as my second wife but I can't do that to her. I love my wife but I'm inlove with that woman."
"Who's the other woman."
"You are all probably going to hate me for this but I love her. I've loved her since."
"Please don't tell me it's Nomsa Xhanti!! That girl!! O my God it's her isn't it?!! You're sleeping with your niece. She's your blood Xhanti."
The room fell silent as they all looked at Xhanti waiting for explanations.
"Yes it's her but she's not my blood. I love her."
"She may not be your blood but... God so she's pregnant with your child. She's 15 years your junior Xhanti."
"It doesn't matter tamkhulu. I love him."
"How long have you two been doing this Nomsa? Under my roof?!"
"3 years but I've never slept with him here aunty I respect you enough not to do that."
"Yhoo!!! Yhoooo! Nkosi yam!!"
