KGOTHATSO .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 ..
