LOVE CONQUERS ALL .CHAPTER : 03 .
ANELE KHUMALO .
After helping Mom with the cooking ‚ I did my homeworks then went to chill with my friend well she’s my neighbour .
Asemahle : Girl did you hear ?
Me : What ?
Asemahle : Bathi indodana ye nkosi ibuyile .
Me : Which one ?
Asemahle : Zwelakhe !
Me : Oh ho that one ? Mxm !
Asemahle : Unamanga futhi he’s so handsome .
Me : Hai mina mgani I’m not interested in what happens in that palace because the first queen is so cruel .
Asemahle : Yhoo chomi ‚ I remember she found us at the river ‚ she was like “niyazi ukuthi lawomanzi anqolile ‚ you should pay taxes for clean water .”
Me : She’s annoying yhooo ‚ it’s like she doesn’t come from a village .
Asemahle : Jonga ! & Worse she was a commoner !
Me : Mxm kanti aren’t royal families supposed to marry a royal blood ?
Asemahle : Well kwaNgwenya zijikile izinto !
Me : Hai Shem ‚ I’m sure his ancestors turned their backs on him poor king !
Asemahle : Speaking of the king ‚ he’s sick & Zwelakhe will be king soon !
Me : Haibo why nibulala inkosi ?
[Why are you killing the king before his dying day ?]
Asemahle : He’s in a critical condition ‚ he won’t survive .
Me : Yhooo moc Zamokuhle is the first prince ?
Asemahle : Zamokuhle is irresponsible wena !
Me : Hai wena where do you get all this information ?
Asemahle : I have eyes & ears everywhere darlie .
Me : Mxm Let’s change the topic ‚ it’s making me sick .
Asemahle : Yhoo uyabhora Shem ‚ kodwa mgani imagine me & Zwelakhe ruling the kingdom together ?
Me : May your dreams come true .
I rolled my eyes & she chuckled .
Asemahle : Tomorrow it’s Friday Nice !
Me : Yeah but You know we have to attend Saturday classes .
Asemahle : Hai uMbila uzama kancane .
Me : You want to fail Neh ?
Asemahle : Hai you also hate school .
Me : Yes I hate school but I want to make my mom proud !
Asemahle : Mxm mina owami angizingeni !
Well Asemahle & her mother don’t have a really good relationship ‚ that’s because Asemahle’s mother favours her younger daughter more than Asemahle .
“Weh Asemahle !” her mother shouted .
Asemahle : Speak of the devil & the devil shall appear !
She clapped her hands ‚ I chuckled then we stood up & hugged .
Me : Be ready by 7am .
Asemahle : Okay sure .
Me : I’m Serious Asemahle !
She giggled then rushed inside ‚ I went back home ‚ I found Mom in the living room busy on her phone .
Me : Ma !
Mom : Hey baby .
Me : You should save your battery .
Mom : Don’t worry tomorrow we’ll have electricity .
Me : What changed your mind ?
Mom : Your father sent enough money for the whole year .
Me : How much ?
Mom : 600k .
Me : Invest mama .
Mom : Invest ?
Me : Yes so that the money doesn’t run out !
Mom : I will try .
Me : Entlek Entlek ubaba ubuya Nini ?
Mom : I don’t know he keeps saying he’s busy that side .
Me : It’s almost a year since he last visited us .
Mom : Work is hectic baby give him time .
Me : Time ? That man doesn’t love us mama ‚ he keeps sending money we don’t need it anymore ‚ we need him back home !! I’m sure he now has a woman that side .
Mom : Don’t say that Anele .
Me : We’ll never know .
I went to my room ‚ I closed the
door then changed into my pyjamas ‚ I say a little prayer then get in bed .
