KGOTHATSO .CHAPTER : 35 .
Zobuhle : Mandla wait ..
Mandlawenkosi : oh what the **** do you want from me woman ? I have a really beautiful wife waiting for me at home .
Zobuhle : if you're happy with her then why are you here ?
Mandlawenkosi : are you really asking me that question ? I don't have time for you Zobuhle .
She intentionally trips as if she's about to fall and he catches her , her lipstick smears all over his white hoddie and she holds on him .
Zobuhle : you still care .
Mandlawenkosi : **** off ..
She stands up straight and glances at him , does he have no idea of the lipstick on his hoddie ?
Mandlawenkosi : what are you staring at ?
Zobuhle : nothing ..
She takes hee perfume from her handbag ..
Zobuhle : this perfume doesn't last .
He sighs and opens the door of his car ..
Mandlawenkosi : i don't know if you're actually following me or what , stop whatever you're doing Zobuhle , we're over . Deal with it ..
She shrugs and starts spraying the perfume all over herself making Mandla cough .
Mandlawenkosi : normalize using Chanel , it doesn't make anyone cough .
He jumps in his car and drives off .
—
— A WHILE LATER ...
He jumps off the car and walks inside , he walks straight upstairs ..
Samkele : brother ? Is that you ?
Mandlawenkosi : hmm ..
Samkele : you're back early .
Mandlawenkosi : there's nothing to really stay there for ..
He walks into his bedroom and finds them rearranging his closet ..
Mandlawenkosi : why are you doing that ?
Kgothatso : you have a really messy closet , i don't know how because when i got here , you were the cleanest guy ever .
Mandlawenkosi : there was no need really ..
Samkele frowns at the smell of perfume ..
Samkele : is that a woman's perfume ?
Mandlawenkosi : what ?
Kgothatso stares at him till she eventually looks awwy , she drops his clothes and walks to him .
Kgothatso : lipstick ?
Mandlawenkosi : you're confusing me .
Kgothatso : you reek of a woman's perfume , there's red lipstick on your hoddie Mandlawenkosi .
He closes his eyes heaving a huge sigh , Zobuhle !
Mandlawenkosi : listen ..
Kgothatso : you leave our house and go wherever you went .. was it Zobuhle ?
Mandlawenkosi : okay i don't know what you're talking about Kgothatso , really .
Kgothatso : this is her scent Mandla dammit !
She storms out as he sighs ..
Mandlawenkosi : how do I even explain that Zobuhle is the one who sprayed her perfume infront of me . I don't really get how the lipstick ended up on my hoddie though .
Samkele : so you were with her ?
Mandlawenkosi : you don't question me , besides .. this is between Kgothatso and i .. not you .
Samkele : you really need to let go of your Bachelorette life or else Kgothatso might just walk out of that door and you die .
Mandlawenkosi : you're making it seem as if I'm only with her because she heals me . Yes that was the case at first but now , i love her and she's my wife . I wouldn't want to hurt her on purpose .
Samkele : how did you meet Zobuhle though ?
Mandlawenkosi : hai Samkele , I'm not a child . The only person I can answer to right now is my wife .
He says walking out and heading downstairs ..
Mandlawenkosi : Kgothatso ?
Silence ..
Mandlawenkosi : baby ?
He walks back upstairs and goes to the bathroom , still nothing . He finds her standing in his office as he walks in and closes the door .
Mandlawenkosi : Kgothie ...
Kgothatso : Kgothatso , just Kgothatso .
Mandlawenkosi : I didn't meet up with Zobuhle .
Kgothatso : did i ask you ?
Mandlawenkosi : i didn't do anything .
Kgothatso : I didn't ask you Mandlawenkosi !
Mandlawenkosi : please don't scream..
Kgothatso : if you didn't meet up with her then explain the lipstick and the perfume ...
Mandlawenkosi : i was with my friends and she just came . I got up and went outside because i wanted to come home to you . She just followed me and the next thing she was about to fall and i caught her . I think thats when the lipstick got on my hoddie and then she started spraying her perfume all over . That's why the scent is still left ..
She shakes her head and chuckles ..
Kgothatso : o superman wena , you catch people before they fall . Were you in an Indian movie ? the one where the girl falls down but the guy saves her ?
Mandlawenkosi : Kgothatso come on ..
Kgothatso : I can still smell her scent , just go shower Mandlawenkosi .
Mandlawenkosi : you're mad though .
Kgothatso : I'm just ... just go .
He sighs and walks out .. she grabs her phone and dials Kgothalo's number while Mandla stands by the door .
Kgothatso : hey .
Kgothalo : what's up ?
Kgothatso : this is weighing so heavily on me ..
Kgothalo : you don't want to wait till i come back ?
Kgothatso : i don't think i can ..
Kgothalo : burp it out , you know we always share everything .
She sighs heavily .
Kgothatso : I'm supposed to be pregnant a month from now .
Kgothalo : what ?
Mandla's heart beats fast ..
Kgothalo : wait what ?
Kgothatso : that's what i saw ..
Kgothalo : you're gonna get pregnant ? but that's good news .
Kgothatso : it is but ..
Kgothalo : there's more ? I was about to buy champagne and celebrate your pregnancy .
Kgothatso : I'm serious Kgothalo come on ..
She says with tears in her eyes and her voice breaking .
Kgothalo : no .. but why are you crying ? What else did you see ?
Kgothatso : I'm gonna give birth to a dead baby Kgothalo .
Kgothalo : what ?
The door opens and she quickly turns ..
Kgothatso : Mandla ..
