CHAPTER 2
*INSERT 1*BASETSANA.
I don't get Zakhele, why is he so keen on sleeping with me. Ong tlwaela hampe nxaa.
I get inside the house and people are busy going up and down preparing for my sister's wedding even our family is here. Oh I forget to say that lobola was paid for my sister last week. We didn't get to see the groom because he was said to be away on business. I've never heard of the Mpangela's It's said that they stay around here. But his family was here to represent him, I've never seen my mom that happy and proud even when I graduated at Unisa she was never that happy.
Me: Mamzo.
One thing about my mother(Khanyile Taylor) is that she's an alcoholic. But she treats us differently , she loves my sister more and it's been like that even when my dad(Adam Taylor) was still alive. My dad never treated us differently, even though I know I was his favorite. Because he knew my sister was rebellious, he was just glad that she finished school, graduated and became a teacher. Just because I work as a waitress at a pub and grill while my sister works as a teacher at some school at town I'm treated differently. I also graduated but I never got a job for what I studied.
Mom: What is it with you and your sister coming in and out of my house like it's yours?
Me: Mom...
Mom: I'm still talking.
What is it with the talking today? huh, my mom always does this. But my sister can backchat her and talk to her like she's coming down from a tree and I'll be the one reprimanding her to respect our mother.
Me: I'm sorry.
Mom: You're busy going in and out of the house and not helping with preparing for tomorrow.
I know better to argue with her. so I leave to help with cooking and other things.
Later we're sitting just catching up, my sister is no where to be seen. But if it was me outside at this time of the night I was not going to hear the end of it. I wonder where is she and I heard it's bad luck seeing the groom before the day of the wedding moc.
Here she comes and sits next to us.
Lerato: Did you fetch your dress?
Me: Shoot I forgot, I'll fetch it tomorrow morning before the wedding starts
Mom: You're just useless, how can you forget your dress?
Aunt: Lets refrain from saying such words to children, Khanyile everyone forgets things once in a while.
Mom: Mxm
I know it will never end with this ones, that is my Aunt from my mother's side. They don't get along they always fight, It's better to go to bed than to listen to those two fighting the whole night.
