SBANISENKOSI

I don't think I'm ready for what today brings. I'm nervous and anxious at the same time, I blocked his number and I hope he'll leave me alone today. I'm going there to work, not anything more. I just lotioned this beautiful body of mine and put on my thong. I don't know what to wear but I love to leave an impression wherever I go so I have to look good.

I put on my long summer long lace summer skirt with the matching white top and tie my wig making it a messy bun. I don't need any makeup today, I'll just have to go with my natural look. Once I'm done, i grab my handbag with everything I need and walk out. It's currently 9am in the morning and I think I might arrive a bit later. I walk to my car, jump in and drive out.
.
.
I get to Sandhurst 2 hours later and park my car at the gate. There's a security guard standing here. I roll down my window and he approaches the car.

“Your name and surname?” He asks.
“Sbanisenkosi Mbatha, the interior designer.” I say, he nods.
“Just a few minutes..” He says walking off and talking on the phone I think, after a while he opens the gate and I drive in. This is insane, it's an entire mansion! oh to even think my parents didn't even want a mansion because it fills up the yard but this is awesome guys haa. I park my car where I think I should and turn off the engine. Here we go..

I grab my handbag and the files, I don't know why I'm shaking over a man that still lives with his parents.

“Good day?” He says behind me, he couldn't even wait another second! I turn around and close the door.
“Christopher...”  I say locking my car and holding everything, he looks so casual. In a good way.
“How are you?” He asks, I shrug.
“Good, i guess now get out of my face.” I say trying to walk past him but he pulls me back.
“What is wrong with you?” He asks keeping a straight face, what is wrong with me vele?
“I need you to leave me alone.” I say.
“But why? weren't we having good times in the bathroom?” He asks.
“So I'm just a thing that gets eaten in the bathroom?” I ask him, I yank my hands off his noticing his brother, Alexander walking towards us.
“Ah! Ms Mbatha.” He says as Christopher steps back, he walks inside leaving us there.
“Hello.” I greet him.
“Please come in, we've been anxiously waiting for you.” He says pulling my hand as we walk inside.

This house is sick, very beautiful and classy. I wouldn't want to get it dirty ever, it's spotless.

“Dad, Ms Mbatha is here.” He says as his dad emerges from downstairs, he doesn't look like an old man. Almost like Christopher but not in that way.
“Oh hello.” He says walking towards us, he side hugs me.
“How are you?” He asks.
“I'm good sir.” I say.
“Lydia come and take Ms Mbatha's stuff so she doesn't have her hands full.” He says as some woman in a pink uniform comes from the kitchen I think.
“Okay Mr Biyela, I'll do so.” She says as I hand her my stuff. They even have a helper, they seem rich.
“My wife thought it would be rude if you came here and didn't really have anything to eat so she cooked something. If you could kindly join us in the dining room..” He says, I didn't eat so why should I refuse food?
“Okay..” I say.
“Let's go..” Alexander says pulling my hand leading me to the dining room.

There's a beautifully set table with lots and lots of food. Oh God this food looks so good and the woman who's busy arranging everything looks like Kris Jenner 2.0.

“Dear, here is our guest..” Mr Biyela says as the woman lifts up her head, God she's beautiful.
“Oh hello hello! welcome!” She says, she's even wearing a heel sahna. Reminds me of my own mother. She walks towards me and gives me a hug.
“It's a pleasure to meet you.” She says.
“Pleased to meet you too ma'am” I say smiling a bit.
“Oh you are so beautiful!” She says.
“Thank you.” I say.

They're like..suffocating me, this feels so awful and moreover because he's in the same house as me.

“Please sit, I've prepared some food. Kanti isn't Nkanyezi coming to eat?” She asks, who's Nkanyezi now?
“I'll go call him, he's probably taking a shower or something.” Alexander says running upstairs.
“Come take a seat..” She says leading me to the chairs.
“I hope you see that we're waiting for you to design this house of ours because there's not much furniture.” She says, I nod.
“I'll do just that.” I say taking a seat. The aroma of the food is out of this world honestly.

Alexander walks down the stairs with Christopher, is he Nkanyezi? let me just leave people's businesses guys.

CHRISTOPHER

I don't know what she just meant about her being a thing that gets eaten in bathrooms. I honestly thought we were having harmless fun and she liked it but she looked like she was about to cry. I kinda felt bad because that's not what I viewed her as. I don't know about love but I think I'm sexually attracted to her.

“Why did you just run upstairs?” My mom asks, I shake my head.
“I had a call to make, that's it.” I say keeping my eyes on Sbanisenkosi. She's avoiding my eyes.
“Let's dish up, I'll dish up for you so you don't have to do all the work.” Mom says, Sbani nods. If it were just the two of us then I would've long jumped on her right on this table and ate her till she went nuts
“Nkanyezi !!” My mom shouts and I snap out of my thoughts, did they really notice I've been staring at her?
“Yes?” I respond.
“Why are you looking at her like that? she's not one of those woman you always fùck everywhere.” She says embarrassing me. What is wrong with my mom?
“You can see that she has class and she's very well mannered.” She says again, is she though? I glare at Sbanisenkosi and she shoots a look at me. I think my mom's statement about me sleeping around made things worse.
“You didn't need to embarrass me like that.” I say dishing up for myself.
“I'm just telking her the truth, if ever you think of dating a man. Don't date a man like Nkanyezi wena my dear, this one will break your heart.” She says, I frown and glare at Alexander.

He shrugs, why is she doing this? if only she knew that I ate her over and over again and she loved it. We all start eating, she's very quiet and I understand why. Once we're all done eating, Mom takes her around the house while I go to my own bedroom. I feel like talking to her or something, my mother said stuff that might not be 100% true.

SBANISENKOSI

Yep, Christopher..Nkanyezi or whatever his name is. He's a womanizer and I happen to be one of his victims.

“Can I have a glass of water?” I ask the lady/helper I met earlier.
“Okay ma'am, I'll get now now.” She says walking to the kitchen and I stand there in the lounge. Mrs Biyela has gone to get some of the family photos that she'd like to put around the house and she needs my input on them.
“Sbanisenkosi..” He calls me out, lord help me. I don't want to talk to this sexy thing of yours.
“I don't want to talk to you..” I say looking the other way, he's literally standing infront of me. His damn cologne..
“That wasn't true..” He says, he's lying. He's what he looks like mahn!
“I didn't ask you if it was true or not. Just leave me..” I say.
“Where did my mother go?” He asks, I shrug.
“She said she's getting some photos.” I say, he nods and pulls me up.
“Let's go..” He says pulling me upstairs.

And I just walked without being forced? oh my gawddd Sbanisenkosi you must be the most stupid person on this earth. He pulls me into his bedroom, I think and he closes the door.

“Today's a bit different because I don't know what's going on with my emotions. This ain't the bathroom at the club or the bathroom at the resturant so please be a little less angry or take out your frustrations sitting on my face.” He says and my body turns into jelly. LORD !!
