SEVENTEEN







.



**BOKANG**



.



Her eyes were wide open as Pulane read the message out loud. She tried to make a run for it but she couldn't even reach the door for that matter. I grabbed her by her hair unintentionally and I ended up with the fake hair on my hand as she continued to run downstairs. I ran after her and I managed to grab her this time around. I was so angry I needed answers and judging by her actions, she was guilty of something huge and unforgivable. I forced her against the wall while still grabbing her tight



.



Me: Talk!



Gigi: You're hurting me



Me: I said talk



Gigi: Okay I'll talk but please don't hurt me



Me: I can't promise that



Gigi: Bokang please



Me: I don't have all day



Gigi: John is back in the country



Me: What?



Pulane: I told you she's a snake but you didn't want to listen



Gigi: Please



Me: Have you been seeing him?



Gigi: Yes



Me: How long?



Gigi: It's been a while



.



I tightened my grip and she cried out like a little baby. I dragged her to the couch and pushed her to sit



.



Me: You're going to tell me everything and then maybe I can spare your life



Gigi: I was desperate



Me: Desperate for what?



Gigi: I wanted you to see me again



Me: Rubbish! You know I don't love you anymore



Gigi: I'm sorry



Me: Tell me about the poison



Gigi: I asked John to get me something to eliminate Pulane



Pulane: What? You wanted to kill me?



Gigi: You've been standing in my way of happiness



Me: Baby make sure she doesn't go anywhere, I'm coming



.



I went to my room to get my gun then I came back.



.



Me: Take me to John



Gigi: I don't know where he stays



Me: Call him then



Gigi: What are you going to do to us?



Me: It depends on what he's going to tell me



Gigi: Are you going to kill me and your baby?



Me: Is there even a baby, Gigi?



Gigi: Of course there's a baby. We made a baby, Bokang



Me: Shut up



Pulane: Don't let her fool you



Gigi: Nobody's talking to you



.



Pulane slapped Gigi so hard that she didn't even know what to say. She held tears in her eyes as I forced her to call John and set up a meeting. We all drove there and remained in the car while John shortly arrived at the place. He ended up leaving because Gigi wasn't showing up and we followed him to some place where he was probably laying low. It was somewhere in the township and he knew very well that no one would find him there. He ended up noticing that we were following him even though we kept our following distance so he increased the speed and so did we. We caught up with him and he stopped when he realised it was us. We all got out of the car and went to him



.



John: I knew you'd sell me out, G



Gigi: I didn't



John: Then what are you all doing here?



Me: I want you to take us to your place



John: What for?



Me: You're in no position to ask questions



John: What if I refuse



Me: I could just put a bullet in your head right now and maybe go to jail



John: You don't have it in you



Me: I would do anything to protect the women who are close to heart



John: Oh really?



Me: So what is it going to be?



John: Fine but I really don't see the reason why you want to see where I stay



Me: You shouldn't worry yourself about minor things. Get in your car and drive



Pulane: Tell him to give you his phone



Me: That's actually a good idea baby. We don't want him to call his dogs to stop us



.



He handed over his phone before getting into his car. We drove for about 10mins before we got to a place where he stayed. We got into the house and Gigi was trembling with fear



.



John: What do you want?



Pulane: Why did you kill my grandmother?



John: To teach you a lesson



Me: Don't you get tired, John?



John: Tired of what? I was over it when your bitch contacted me



Me: You two are going to tell me everything



John: She'll do the honours



Gigi: There's nothing to tell



John: Oh there's a lot to tell, sweety



Gigi: You shut up, John



John: Shut up? Tell him that you're not pregnant



Pulane: I knew it. I told you, B



John: And the first pregnancy wasn't even yours but mine



.



My heart sank after hearing those words. Gigi kneeled in front of me begging for forgiveness. I was shuttered and all the strength I had suddenly vanished. To think I once loved her with all my being and there was nothing I wouldn't do for her.



.



Gigi: It was a mistake but John forced me to terminate



John: Oh please you wanted to



Gigi: I never stopped loving you still



Me: Get your hands off me



Gigi: Bokang please



Me: I said get your hands off me because I do something I'll regret



John: Tell him that you organised the hijacking that went south



Me: What?



Gigi: It wasn't supposed to be like that



Me: So I almost died because of you two?



Gigi: I'm so sorry



John: Sorry for what? This bitch you once called your girlfriend has been sneaking into my bedroom for a long time



Gigi: Shut up, John. We both know you took advantage of me



.



I pushed her away from me and she fell at John's feet. I was frustrated and I didn't know what to do. The gun was still in my hand and fully loaded and I knew something had to take a bullet. Pulane stood speechless at the corner with tears running down her face. I pointed the gun at John then both the women screamed. Pulane rushed to hold my hand and try to stop me from shooting but I was already overcome with a demon that was unstoppable and I pulled the trigger. John dropped to the floor and Gigi tried to run but I shot her leg and she fell down. Pulane stood in shock after my actions and she was in complete fear.
