Chapter 30
KGOTHATSO .CHAPTER : 30 .
At night , the villagers gather around the lit fire sharing stories about the ancient times of the Nongoma Village . Beating the drum slowly , creating melody .
Gosiame : I never thought I'd say I love zulus but I love zulus !
Kelebogile : their culture so rich and so beautiful , absolutely the best .
Gosiame : I'm happy that our sister got married here , they're such a lovely family .
Kgothalo : a lovely family that doesn't want to go their homes and sleep , it's literally 2am in the morning .
Realeboga : let them be , they're still enjoying and drinking .
Kgothalo : well I'm off to sleep , see ya .
He stands up and walks inside as he meets Mandlawenkosi and Kgothatso who are in the lounge with her laying her head on his lap .
Kgothalo : it's chaotic outside and you're playing lovey dovey .
Kgothatso : I don't even want to see what's the situation is outside , it's been going on for hours now .
Kgothalo : and they intend on going for the whole night if I may tell you .
Kgothatso : it's not even night , it's morning already .
Mandlawenkosi : should I tell them to go ?
Kgothatso : no its fine , some will sleep in the rooms outside . Atleast this rented house has rooms outside .
She glances at Kgothalo ..
Kgothatso : you must share ..
Kgothalo : oh no no , do you want Melissa to kill me ?
Kgothatso : you share with a man , not a woman .
Kgothalo : isn't that even worse ?
Mandlawenkosi : why don't you share with one of your sisters ?
Kgothalo : that's an option , I'll take Realeboga because Kelebogile and Gosiame kick the shit out of you when they're sleeping .
Kgothatso : I know them too well .
Kgothalo : well goodnight people .
Mandlawenkosi : night ..
Kgothatso : night , I love you .
Kgothalo : I love you more .
He walks off to his bedroom ..
Kgothatso : do you want to go sleep ?
Mandlawenkosi : you're tired , lets go .
They stand up and walk to Kgothatso's bedroom , they walk in and she closes the door .
Kgothatso : you didn't even bring changing clothes , haii nawe .
Mandlawenkosi : it's hot here , I'll sleep in my undies .
Kgothatso : hmm okay .
She changes into her pajamas as he opens the covers ...
Kgothatso : this was a very good day .
Mandlawenkosi : very eventful and lively .
Kgothatso : you delivered the 30 cows that my crazy twin brother asked for ..
Mandlawenkosi : I had to abide by everything , I married you as a virgin . That's a rare thing and you actually deserved more . You actually held yourself in for 25 years straight .
Kgothatso : out of respect and advices I got ... being a healer is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me . This side of me has opened doors for me .
Mandlawenkosi : and it made us unite ..
Kgothatso : (sighs) I'll never turn my back on my ancestors , ever .
They jump in bed ..
Kgothatso : is my dress ready ?
Mandlawenkosi : it is , don't worry .
Kgothatso : the woman you were standing with , was that Mpiyakhe's wife ?
He groans lightly and nods .
Mandlawenkosi : Nelisiwe .
Kgothatso : the bombastic side eye she gave me was too much .
Mandlawenkosi : she's bitter , don't pay attention to her .
Kgothatso : I didn't see your 4 aunts ..
Mandlawenkosi : they didn't tell anyone they won't be coming , they were notified though .
Kgothatso : I think they're up to something .
Mandlawenkosi : hmm , they can't just disappear for nothing .
Kgothatso : either way , everything went well . Which is good , I was worried yoh .
Mandlawenkosi : and you had nothing to worry about .
He kisses her hand ..
Mandlawenkosi : I want to buy you a ring .
Kgothatso : there's no need .
Mandlawenkosi : people must know that you're Mrs Ndlovu .
Kgothatso : I'm not that big on flaunting .
Mandlawenkosi : I'm gonna buy you a ring Kgothie .
She rolls her eyes .
Kgothatso : I'm not that big on white weddings , proposals and rings . I'm really not ..
Mandlawenkosi : I'm just buying a ring baby , nothing much .
Kgothatso : okay then ..
Mandlawenkosi : I'm gonna have one custom made for you .
Kgothatso : oh I feel so special sana .
Mandlawenkosi : you should , you're Mandlawenkosi's wife .
Kgothatso : and who's Mandlawenkosi ?
Mandlawenkosi : the business expecr .
Kgorhatso : oh wow ..
Mandlawenkosi : are you gonna go back to work ?
Kgothatso : of course , I have alot of duties to abide to . My patients need me and I must be there for them .
Mandlawenkosi : Dr Kgothatso Ndlovu . .
She smiles and shakes her head .
Kgothatso : already , haii .
Mandlawenkosi : it's the rightful title .
Kgothatso : are you hungry ?
Mandlawenkosi : im not hungry but I'd like to have coffee and scones .
Kgothatso : let me go make them for you .
Mandlawenkosi : okay ..
She plants a kiss on his lips and walks out .. she walks into the kitchen and glances at Nelisiwe who's sipping on her tea .
Kgothatso : I thought you guys left .
Nelisiwe : how can we leave when Mpiyakhe doesn't want to go ?
She says with an attitude .
Kgothatso : there's no need to snap , I'm merely asking .
Nelisiwe : I'm not snapping .
She turns on the kettle and takes the bucket of scones from the top of the fridge .
Kgothatso : you have so much anger in you .
Nelisiwe : don't tell me about anger please ..
Kgothatso : Mandla and Mpiyakhe are not angry with each other , you're the one wanting to cause the rift between them .
Nelisiwe : what do you know ? you just married Mandla ..
Kgothatso : I've connected with Mandla spiritually , I know who has his best interest at heart and who doesn't . You're certainly not one of them ..
She rolls her eyes .
Nelisiwe : you can't tell me anything .
Kgothatso : that's the type of attitude that's gonna cost you your marriage .
She places the scones on the saucer .
Kgothatso : and Mpiyakhe loves you so much , he doesn't stop talking about you but you're out here focusing on my husband's wealth and life .
The kettle begins boiling as she pours the water in the mug , she pours in a spoon of coffee and two spoons of sugar and milk .
Kgothatso : goodnight or good morning , akitsi .
She walks off and heads back to the bedroom ..
Kgothatso : your sister in law has a crush on you .
Mandlawenkosi : it's been long overdue now , I'm not even there .
Kgothatso : where did Mpiyakhe find this woman though ? She's so weird ..
Mandlawenkosi : he claims he loves her .
Kgothatso : he does but I don't think she does , she's just doing this because he's your little brother and being with him will draw you closer to her .
Mandlawenkosi : and that'll never happen .
She sits on the bed as he starts eating ..
