Deadly obsession ,Chapter 26
GUGUYesterday was a shocking and difficult day for me. Ziyanda did something that she shouldn't have, and I'm still processing it. I'm finding it hard to make sense of everything that happened, and it's making me feel overwhelmed and confused.
I felt Mkhatshwa's arms around me, but I couldn't bring myself to focus on anything else. My mind was still reeling from what had happened the day before. Mkhatshwa tried to comfort me, saying,
Him:"Good morning, baby."
Me:"What's good about it?" I reply, feeling bitter. "After what happened yesterday, I don't feel good at all."
Mkhatshwa try to reassure me.
M:"We'll handle this, okay? I'll talk to Ziyanda and make sure she gets off and never repeat what she did okay?We are her parents biological or not she should respect us"he says I nod
Me:"please do Mkhatshwa because this can't happen again it was first and last it was a mistake also"he nods and kisses my forehead .He picks me up and head to the bathroom we shower while making love....
After breakfast I get up and left for work. Mkhatshwa walks me to the car and kiss me goodbye before I got in and drove away. I felt a little bit better knowing that he was there for me, even though I was still upset about what had happened the day before."

MKHATSHWA
After Gugu left, I storm over to Ziyabuya's room and threw open the door. I marched over to her bed and yank the blankets off of her, startling her awake. Before she could say a word, I slapp her across the face."
Me:"Manyala woni lawa uzama kuwenza weZiyanda?"I ask she stares at me"Answer me, dammit!" I yell.
Her:"I--- I'm sorry," she stammers . "I wasn't thinking.---"
I cut her off before she could finish.
Me:"That's not an excuse," I say, anger rising in my voice. "Now pack up your things. When your mother comes back, you're going to tell her that you've found a place to stay."
She tried to protest, but I cut her off again. "I am your father, and that's all you need to know."
Her:"But I don't have anywhere else to go!" she cries.
Me:"I don't care," I say coldly. "I don't want you in my house anymore. You're old enough to figure things out for yourself. I'm disgusted by what you've done."
I turned and walked away, I leave the house and head to my panelbeaters shop ,I greet the boys working with me I go inside to change into my overalls.
Today it is a busy day at the panelbeaters. I love my job, and I take pride in the work I do. I enjoy the satisfaction of restoring a damaged car to its former glory. I take a break for lunch and went to the shop down the road to get some fatcookies. I come back and sat down to eat, but my mind was somewhere else.
I love Gugu with all my heart,I've never loved a woman the way I love her. Yes, I've been married before, to Hlengiwe. I loved her at the time, but when I found out she was having an affair with my brother, it broke me.I can't help but feel a sense of betrayal, even though it had happened years ago. Hlengiwe really hurt me,She betrayed me in the worst way possible, and she even got pregnant with my brother's child. After I found out, I became a completely different person. I was cruel and unforgiving, and I treated her and Sukoluhle badly. She eventually left and took off with my brother, leaving the kids with me. I took advantage of that and used it to control them. They were a reminder of what their mother had done, and I couldn't stand to look at them.I still hate Hlengiwe and her children . And I don't feel any remorse for what I did to them. But things are different now. Gugu has changed me without even trying. I love her, and I would never hurt her. She's brought out the best in me, and I'm so grateful for that.
I won't let Ziyanda ruin what I have with Gugu,If I have to kick her out of my house, I will. I won't let any woman come between us. Gugu is too important to me, and I won't let anyone stand in the way of our happiness.
I check my watch and realize it is time to head home. I got on the local and rode back to my house. I got off at the gate and walk up the driveway to my house. As I approach, I see Gugu's car parked outside, which means she must have gotten off work early. I walk inside and found her watching TV in the living room.
Me:"Hey, honey," I say, walking over and giving her a hug and a kiss. "How was your day?"
She smiles and hug me back.
Her:"It was good, but I'm so glad to be home," she says. "How was your day?"
I seat down next to her on the couch.
Me:"It was pretty busy, but I'm happy to be home too," I say, wrapping my arm around her shoulders.
Her:"I missed you today," she says, snuggling closer to me.
We enjoy each other's company and cuddling up close. We are lost in our own little world when we heard footsteps coming down the hall. I look up to see Ziyanda walking into the living room, suitcase in hand.
Ziyanda :"Oh, I didn't know you were both home," Ziyanda says,
Me:"Hi, Ziyanda," I say, moving a little away from Gugu, though still close enough to hold her hand. "Going somewhere ?."I ask
Ziyanda : "Yes I have---found a place to stay so I'm leaving "I nod
Gugu:"Are you sure I mean---"Gugu says but Zi cut her short
Ziyabuya "Yes I'm sure I'm an adult Gugu--I mean mom so buy"with that she roll her suitcase closing the door behind her. I sigh and hug Gugu,atleast my problem is gone now I can concentrate to my woman only her......
