IN THE MORNING ..
Kgothalo and Kelebogile drive in Mandla's yard and park the car ...
Kelebogile : this man has taste .
Kgothalo : his car collection is giving richest man in the world .
Kelebogile : lets go .
They jump off the car and walk inside without knocking ..
Kgothatso : you knock in people's homes you know ?
Kelebogile : yei don't bore us .
Kgothatso : what a lovely surprise .
Kgothalo : and considering how happy you look , you don't even miss us .
Kgothatso : of course I miss you guys , I miss you so much .
Kelebogile : your house is beautiful ..
She walks over to her and gives her hug ..
Kgothatso : ohh my sis . .
Kelebogile : been missing you alot .
Kgothatso : me too .
She glances at Kgothalo ..
Kgothatso : are you mad at me ?
Kgothalo : would I be mad if my twin sister has forgotten about our daily video calls ? Of course I am mad .
Kgothatso : I'm sorry , it has just been alot . I've been trying to settle in well and help Mandla where I can .
Kgothalo : is it going well though ?
Kgothatso : It is ..
He picks her up and spins her around ..
Kgothalo : you have no idea how much I miss you .
They share a hug .
Kgothatso : thank you for this surprise .
Kelebogile : is your husband here ?
Kgothatso : yeah he's taking a shower , I think he's going to work ... come sit .
They walk into the lounge and sit down ..
Kgothalo : how is he ?
Kgothatso : he's been very better but I sense witchcraft going around his family members . I senses that yesterday ..
Kgothalo : and you told him ?
Kgothatso : I wouldn't keep quiet .
Kelebogile : but he's fine ?
Kgothatso : he's fine , but I'm gonna keep a closer watch on him so nothing bad happens .
Kgothalo : they're really out for his life neh ..
Kgothatso : blind .. my husband worked very hard for everything he has today , why would they want to kill him just because he's successful ?
Kelebogile and Kgothalo glance at each other in shock ..
Kgothatso : what is it ?
Kgothalo : your husband you say ..
Kgothatso : he is my husband , what is my husband ?
Kelebogile : o catch'ile . — ( you've caught )
Kgothatso : let me just tell you because I can't hold it in anymore .
Kgothalo : what ?
Kgothatso : we slept in the same bed yesterday because I was genuinely scared for his safety . But then .. we ended up kissing .
Kelebogile : what ?!
She says half screaming ..
Kgothatso : don't be so loud , you're gonna get me in trouble !
Kelebogile : no but are you serious ?
Kgothatso : I'm serious , but I think I messed up .
Kgothalo : what did you do ?
Kgothatso : I pushed him off because now .. I was scared , he was even tracing his fingers around my nipples .
Kgothalo : I don't want to hear that please ..
Kgothatso : I think I messed up because now he's not speaking to me .
Kelebogile : I think he loves you and he felt disappointed when you pushed him off .
She sighs ..
Kgothalo : and I think you love him too .
Kgothatso : I'm so confused .
Kgothalo : don't be confused , make up your mind because this very same man is your husband .
Kgothatso : the reason I pushed him off was because this was the first time something like was happening to me and nerves just took over .
Kgothalo : do you love him ?
She shrugs .
Kgothatso : I don't know ..
Kelebogile : he's gonna keep getting upset because you're just not expressive , he's trying but you're not letting him try enough .
Mandlawenkosi walks down the stairs glancing at his phone .. they immediately keep quiet and he lifts his head up .
Mandlawenkosi : oh , hello ..
Kgothalo : hey brother inlaw ..
Kelebogile : hello .
Mandlawenkosi : is there something wrong ?
Kgothalo : we just wanted to come and see your house , we've been dying to see it .
Mandlawenkosi : (nods) do as you please .. I wish I can stay but I really can't , I'm late for a business meeting ..
Kgothatso : aren't you eating breakfast ?
Mandlawenkosi : I'll grab something on the way .
Kgothatso : Mandla ..
Mandlawenkosi : it's okay .
He takes his briefcase ..
Mandlawenkosi : it was great seeing you , bye .
He walks out ..
Kelebogile : okay I think he feels bad .
Kgothatso : I don't know what to do .
Kgothalo : well my better half , you're a wife to someone and you should know what to do in situations like these . Figure it out ..
Kgothatso : goshh why is being married so hard ? I love him so much but I don't know how to express that .
Kelebogile gasps as Kgothalo widens his eyes .
Kgothalo : you love him ?
Kgothatso : did I say that ? oh God .
Kelebogile : you just admitted that you love your husband Kgothatso ..
Kgothatso : okay my mind is all over the place right now .
Kgothalo : okay but do you love him ?
She takes a deep breath ..
Kgothatso : I love him .
Kgothalo : ohh my better half is finally inlove , you're inlove !
Kgothatso : don't do this to me , I don't know what to do .
She says wiping off her tears ..
Kgothatso : he's so upset .
Kelebogile : why don't you speak to him once he returns and tell him everything ?
Kgothatso : I'm trying to take one step at a time because we've just gotten married traditionally so without even spending time together .
Kgothalo : there's no time sis , what if he starts seeing another woman because you're not inlove with him ? He's not going to want to be in a marriege that's one sided .
Kgothatso : but the main reason for us getting married was mainly because I had to save his life not because we love each other .
Kgothalo : he gave you your first kiss ever , remember that .. there must be a reason otherwise he'd be Tumelo 2.0 .
Kgothatso : but ..
Kelebogile : even though you got married because of specific reasons , so many things can happen between a husband and wife that live under the same roof .
She heaves another sigh .
Kgothalo : I'd prefer him to be the one to break your virginity honestly .
Kgothatso : Kgothalo !
He laughs as she hits his shoulder playfully .
Kgothatso : sies man .
Kelebogile : will you talk to him ? being inlove with a person who's also inlove with you is the most beautiful thing ever . You actually have a great chance of experiencing all that . Just allow yourself to feel all the emotions , if Mandla touches you in a sexual way .. let him , he's your husband but also tell him to go easy on you because you're not familiar with any of the things he's gonna be doing .
Kgothatso : hmm .
Kgothalo : and tell him to be gentle ..
Kgothatso : ah Kgothalo **** off man ! we're not even there yet .
