CHAPTER : 24 .



— SOME TIME LATER ..



She sits on the couch but stands up again , she walks around the house unable to think about what she's going to say to Mandlawenkosi . The only person she can think of is her grandmother . She quickly grabs her phone and dials her number .



MaMofokeng : what a surprise ..

Kgothatso : I'm in a dilemma ..

MaMofokeng : you had your first kiss with your husband , the first ever kiss in your life .

Kgothatso : now it has gotten me all confused .

MaMofokeng : I don't want to say much , but .. I know what you want to do and I support you . Mandla is a man among man ...

Kgothatso : I don't know how to tell him .

MaMofokeng : tell him Kgothatso , I don't want to tell you how to tell your husband that you love him .

Kgothatso : but ..

MaMofokeng : it's your marriege , you know what to say but you're just not letting the words come out of your mouth .

Kgothatso : okay .

MaMofokeng : I'm happy that you've finally found love , with the right one .



She sighs .



Kgothatso : we'll talk .

MaMofokeng : don't stress about anything , Mandla loves you too .

Kgothatso : okay ..



She hangs up and sighs again , she walks to the kitchen and gulps down yet another bottle of water ... while Mandla's car parks outside and he jumps off . He walks inside as she gasps ..



Kgothatso : he's early ...



She walks out of the kitchen and glances at Mandla who was about to walk upstairs .



Kgothatso : Mandla ..

Mandlawenkosi : I'm heading back to the office , I forgot a file .

Kgothatso : can we talk ?

Mandlawenkosi : there's really nothing to talk about .

Kgothatso : please ..



He sighs and turns back , he walks back downstairs and they walk to the kitchen and sit on the high stools .



Kgothatso : I know you're upset with me .

Mandlawenkosi : hmm .

Kgothatso : you gave me the first best kiss of my life and I pushed you off .

Mandlawenkosi : you made me feel like a jerk honestly , like im touching you without your consent .

Kgothatso : and that's not the case , I wasn't trying to make you feel otherwise . A kiss is a very new thing to me , so when you did that .. I felt nervous , my nerves took over and my body went into complete shock .

Mandlawenkosi : you didn't tell me anything about how you felt .

Kgothatso : i was afraid , I don't know how you feel about me Mandla , I don't know what's in your heart .

Mandlawenkosi : can't you feel whats in my heart ?



She looks down .



Kgothatso : Mandla ..

Mandlawenkosi : I don't even need to say anything , I'm inlove with you Kgothatso . I wouldn't have kissed you if I wasn't in love , I wasn't going to share the same bed with you if I wasn't inlove .



She glances at him .



Mandlawenkosi : I know it's your first time , your first time of everything hence I want you to take your time . I wasn't going to do anything to you , I just wanted to hold my wife , kiss her and just be able to tell her how much I love her but you pushed me off .

Kgothatso : I'm sorry Mandla ..



He stands up and pulls her up , he picks her up and places her on the counter .



Mandlawenkosi : what's in your heart ?

Kgothatso : your name .



He smiles .



Mandlawenkosi : does my name perhaps make you feel somehow ?

Kgothatso : It makes me feel like im inlove .

Mandlawenkosi : with your own husband ?

Kgothatso : you could say that .

Mandlawenkosi : you love me ?



She sighs once more ..



Kgothatso : I love you Mandlawenkosi Ndlovu .

Mandlawenkosi : I thought you didn't .

Kgothatso : I also thought you didn't love me .

Mandlawenkosi : you see how important it is to communicate ?



She nods .



Kgothatso : I see .



He plants a kiss on her lips ..



Mandlawenkosi : you make me feel otherwise .

Kgothatso : in a good way ?

Mandlawenkosi : a perfect way .



She wraps her arms around his neck ..



Kgothatso : you were so upset with me .

Mandlawenkosi : I felt so bad actually , like I just slapped myself in the face . I didn't know that you'd push me off .

Kgothatso : I'm sorry hubby .

Mandlawenkosi : well .. now that it's no longer some type of an arranged marriage , what do you want to say to me ?

Kgothatso : I want to tell you that I'm always going to be here for you , I'm gonna help you as your loving wife and I'm going to respect you . I'm going to learn how to be more open and open myself to trying out new things .



He smiles .



Kgothatso : I'm gonna learn not to push you away but to tell you at that exact moment how I feel . I'm gonna learn to be imperfectly perfect , I'm gonna learn about everything you like .

Mandlawenkosi : im almost speechless .

Kgothatso : you have to .

Mandlawenkosi : I'm gonna learn everything , each and everything . I don't even need to mention them but helping you do your makeup is one of them .

Kgothatso : ah stop , you don't know how to do makeup .

Mandlawenkosi : you're gonna teach me .

Kgothatso : imagine Mandla ..

Mandlawenkosi : and you must show me how to polish nails , I want to polish your nails as well .



She begins laughing ..



Kgothatso : you're actually killing me .

Mandlawenkosi : I'm trying to be an ideal husband for my wife .

Kgothatso : one step at a time ?

Mandlawenkosi : one step at a time Kgothie .



She rolls her eyes .



Kgothatso : I hate that nickname .

Mandlawenkosi : I love it .



He kisses her forehead and rubs her thigh ..



Mandlawenkosi : wanna go play fifa ?

Kgothatso : aren't you supposed to go back to the office ?

Mandlawenkosi : nope , I don't want to go anymore . I want to stay right here with my wife .

Kgothatso : you're such a baby .

Mandlawenkosi : I can only be your baby .

Kgothatso : but you're going to beat me again Mandla haii , I don't want to play with you .

Mandlawenkosi : only one game ?

Kgothatso : haii Mandlawenkosi , you're going to rub it in my face once you win lana .

Mandlawenkosi : that's the point .



She shakes her head .



Kgothatso : I'm not playing with you .

Mandlawenkosi : please ?

Kgothatso : nope !

Mandlawenkosi : Baby ?



She shakes her head smiling ..



Mandlawenkosi : I don't want to play alone , come now .

Kgothatso : I'm still cleaning up .

Mandlawenkosi : im the one who cleans not you so let's go .

Kgothatso : maybe a kiss will change my mind .



He chuckles .



Mandlawenkosi : why wouldn't I want to kiss my pretty wife ?

Kgothatso : no idea .



He gets in between of her thighs and grabs her waist ..



Kgothatso : I'll consider this my first kiss with my hubby .

Mandlawenkosi : same .



Their lips touch as they begin kissing .. she lets her tears roll down as he picks her up walking to the lounge ..
