KGOTHATSO .CHAPTER : 16 .
Ululations fill the house as Mandlawenkosi heaves a sigh inside of the car , it's done .
Mandla's uncle : we're glad to be welcoming you to our family .
MaMofokeng : everything went well , the families have aligned .
Masentle : you may go dish up for your husband now , I'll dish up for your uncle inlaws.
Kgothatso nods and stands up , she walks to the kitchen as Kgothalo follows her . She leans against the counter wiping off her tears ..
Kgothalo : why are you crying ?
Kgothatso : what are you doing here ?
Kgothalo : I'm here to check up on you .
Kgothatso : I'm worth more than a R300K though .
He chuckles .
Kgothalo : you're worth billions .
Kgothatso : true true .
Kgothalo : so this is it , you're Mandlawenkosi's wife , traditionally .
Kgothatso : and I'm moving to his house , crazy .
Kgothalo : you didn't tell how was spending the night with him like ..
Kgothatso : we ended up sleeping on the same bed because he couldn't sleep .
He gasps .
Kgothalo : what ?
Kgothatso : yep , nothing happened though . We had shared our spaces and we slept well . In the morning , I met his friends and that was it .
Kgothalo : but it was good though ?
Kgothatso : it felt good to get to know him more because we talked for a while .
Kgothalo : natural .
Kgothatso : he was just talking freely , also .. I've noticed . The man is shy beyond words , he can't ever maintain eye contact with me .
Kgothalo : really ?
She nods smiling .
Kgothatso : but he is a great man .
He folds his arms and glances at her raising his eyebrow .
Kgothatso : what ?
Kgothalo : are you falling for him ?
Kgothatso : what ? of course not . You know why I'm getting married to him .
Kgothalo : yes I know but ...
Kgothatso : I'm not inlove with Mandla , finish line .
She takes out the plate and tray ..
Kgothatso : Mandla is a foodie .
Kgothalo : so you've also observed that about him ?
Kgothatso : Kgothalo , please don't bore me .
Kgothalo : you're my better half , how can I not bore you ?
Kgothatso : please ..
Kgothalo : your man must be starving , be quick now .
Kgothatso : Mxm ..
She dishes up for him and pours him a glass of juice , she places everything on the tray .
Kgothatso : will you come with the bowl of water so he'd wash his hands ?
Kgothalo : sure I want to ask him why he thinks you'd be worth R150K or R230K .
Kgothatso : please don't say anything , Kgothalo ae please don't say anything .
Kgothalo : lets go .
They walk out and head out of the gate , they walk to the SUV ..
Kgothatso : this is a beast .
Kgothalo : it is ..
She walks over to his side and he opens the door ..
Mandlawenkosi : I think I'm gonna love this king treatment .
Kgothatso : don't get used to it ..
Mandlawenkosi : I'm joking , hello .
Kgothalo : please wash your hands and get ready to he interrogated .
Mandlawenkosi : oh what have I done to you now Mr Mofokeng sir ?
Kgothalo : come on ..
He proceeds to wash his hands and he takes the tray from her ..
Mandlawenkosi : and ??
Kgothalo : my sister is worth so much more than R180K or R230K , you can't be serious .
Mandlawenkosi : is that what they offered to pay ?
Kgothalo : yeah ..
Mandlawenkosi : I didn't ask them to pay that much though , I just gave them R600K and told them to pay whatever amount you ask for .
Kgothalo : so you didn't say any amount ?
Mandlawenkosi : I swear I didn't .
Kgothalo : hmm , good ..
He glances at Kgothatso and smiles a bit ..
Mandlawenkosi : you look beautiful .
She glances at Kgothalo as he shakes his head and walks away ..
Kgothatso : thank you .
Mandlawenkosi : I take it everything went well ..
Kgothatso : everything went well , very smoothly .
Mandlawenkosi : come sit ..
Kgothatso : I'm afraid to sit in a car that's this beautiful and clean .
Mandlawenkosi : you own cars , not just any cars but branded cars . Why are you tryna act like you don't own any car ?
Kgothatso : I don't own an SUV though ..
Mandlawenkosi : just get in ..
She walks over to the other side and jumps in ..
Kgothatso : oh my God , I feel like I want to burst .
Mandlawenkosi : why ?
Kgothatso : I feel so hot !
She says unclipping the blanket and folding it properly and placing it at the back .
Mandlawenkosi : the house is ready for you .
Kgothatso : thank you ..
Mandlawenkosi : you have your own office , your closet . Everything else you might need .
Kgothatso : thank you for getting it ready for me .
He nods .
Mandlawenkosi : and then next week , we're gonna go to KZN for the traditional wedding .
Kgothatso : so many things happening , I can't even keep up .
Mandlawenkosi : I might need time off work after this .. there's been a lot going on .
