CHAPTER 35 ( SEASON COMES TO AN END) 

 

NARRATED  

 

The two brothers are seating on the bunch looking at each other so deep in the eyes like they are having a private conversation but then its only the two of them in the cell. That’s the only thing that they used their connections on getting the same cell. Its been 4 weeks since they’ve been here and nothing has happened and they band their family after the court where they plead guilty of all the charges and that shocked everyone from the outside world and behind bars they are the most feared people and yet they just take the fall. No one understand their plan and that’s if they have a plan because by the looks of this they are willing to spend the rest of their lives here while they have wives and baby that still needs a father. As they are seating there I wonder whats the next step . 

 

Mqhele: are you okay? 

Lwandle: yes , why? 

Mqhele: your thoughts are loud that’s why im asking. 

Lwandle: when do you think this will end? 

Mqhele: I don’t wanna lie bro I don’t know. And whats funny is that I wasn’t shown all of this. 

Lwandle: that can only means it’s the end of it all. 

Mqhele: maybe and I would be happy . 

Lwandle: me too bro . but I guess we will find out soon enough. 

Mqhele: yah man. But to say the least I enjoyed my life with my woman. 

Lwandle: bruh I have 2 wives and the crazy part is that I didn’t even taste the second one. 

Mqhele: and you want to taste. 

Lwandle: come on bruh you cant ask me that. 

Mqhele: how about we call them here just to say our last goodbyes. 

Voice : N’y pense meme pas ( Don’t even think about it) 

Lwandle: ow fuck! Wil ( as he was about to speak the was a thunder that made the windows to shake and the walls) Mqhele: is it time ? 

Voice :oui, il est temps. Je veux que mon ame revienne. ( yes it is time . I want my soul back) 

Lwandle: Tu agis comme si on te le demandait ( you act as if we asked you) 

 

Lwande is now being angry about this whole situation and what makes him more angry is that this thing doesn’t even asked them about anything it just pops up and will demand what they are used to . and in that moment they will feel as if they are not man enough or rather human beings . yes they did die and their bodies were buried but their soul wondered around for the longest time until a deal was made between them and the Tella. 

 

Voice : oui , tu n’as pas demande. Masi nous avons conclu un accord. ( yes you didn’t ask. But we made a deal ) 

 

Just as they were about to respond the thunder got louder and the walls shake the brothers stood up and hugged each other so close as tears fell down their check they even shared a forehead kisses. The lightning stroke down their cell causing fire you could see as the fire grew stronger and reaching them they are feeling the heat but no one dared to make the noise but their eyes are making the loudest noise ever the tears that are falling down. As they are burning up they started screaming as the memories of the life started fleshing before their eyes. They both fell down and crumbled and they burnt into ashes.  

The guards outside tried to hard to open the door but it was jammed stuck like something was blocking it from opening. After 30 minutes of trying of opening the door they finally did when they opened the door they saw their ashes on the ground but what shocked them was that the beds are still neatly made is only the brothers that burnt into ashes.  

 

2 DAYS AFTER  

 

The paper headlines “ THE ZUNGU BROTHERS COMMITED SUICIDE IN THE CELL” some said “ THE MIGHTY HAS FALLEN” without a doubt the enemies were rejoicing and having a party of all times. But to the wives not so good everyone is in the Eastern Cape Gqeberha for the burial of the brothers. The black cloth has covered the tv . Both sisters are seating down on mattress and they are wearing all black . Zama was only wearing black clothes with white doek since she is still breast feeding. Dave and Biyela are trying their best to stand firm and not let the pain of losing the brothers shown to the world they had to keep it together for the sake of the wives. Fikile and Kwakhanya area busy up and down they are keeping everything together making sure theres food and drinks and that everyone is feed. They are the ones together with the family that are seeing the funeral things are going according to the plan.  

 

The day of the funeral you could actually smell the sadness and the pain that Hlwayela and Hlaluminam where in. they wrote letters for the final goodbye to their husband . 

 

Hlwayela letter – my husband , my darling , on this the last night of my life I bid you farewell. Our days of happiness were short lived, but beautiful. At this moment I am remembering our love, from its beautiful beginning until its cruel end. I remember very well when you stopped the wedding of my sister so you could ask for my hand in marriage to my father and I didn’t stop you because I knew from the very moment I saw you that I belong to you and only you. Thank you mylove , rest in peace and forever loving ZUNGU  

 

Hlaluminam letter – hey stranger , my secrete admire , how I miss hearing you calling me thembalam. How selfish are you to agree to die and leave me to this cruel world without a son. My heart is bleeding I don’t know how I manage to wake up and face these people without you by my side. Even your crazy aunt was at it again and when I looked for you to fight for me you went there. How I am suppose to live my life without you. I know no man other than you. You are my favourite my right hand man. People are looking at me as im crying and drinking my self to sleep they want me to be strong how am I going to be strong if you are not here with me. I am missing you every single day, your absents will shutter me in every possible way. Lonely and alone .Goodbye my love , see you in the morning .
