CHAPTER 19
ZINHLE DUMAI was just laying on my bed thinking of how my life turned out to be after losing my parents. How Sandile took care of me as a friend but eventually turned to be my lover and how he changed to being abusive and Tshepiso saving me from him then again finding myself back in Sandile's arms and he saved me from him again. He's such a good gent who really deserves a good girl, someone with no heavy baggage behind.... a girl who's not confused in life. Mxm what was I even thinking of dating him? I think I read too much into his "I want you" words, what did he mean by that by the way?
"Zinhle?"
His voice took me back to my senses, I quickly wiped my tears. I looked at him as he leaned against the door frame.
Me: What do you want Thato?
Thato: How long will you be angry at me for something I didn't even do?
Me: Leave... I don't wanna talk to you.
Thato: But I wanna talk to you.
He walked in closing the door behind him. He came to sit on the chair next to the hospital bed. He tried holding my hand, I moved it.
Thato: Hlehle, but do you really think I would do that?
Me: After talking to me like that? yes I do think so.
Thato: I was f.... okay fine I agree I was wrong but you called me at wrong time, I was busy.
Me: Busy fucking as always?
He kept quiet, well not moving his eyes from me, I looked away chuckling.
Thato: I'm a very straightforward person Zinhle, if I didn't like having you around I would have taken you to my sister's place or maybe somewhere. I wouldn't even dare try to find you some therapy help.
Mxm of course he would say that.
Thato: I hate children and women abuse Hlehle, I hate it with everything in me.
Me: Ohh please.
Thato: Thing is I....
Tshepiso got in holding a box of pizza and KFC paper bag.
Tshepi: I got this for you.
Me: Thanks.
God he's so sweet and caring. I peeked in KFC paper bag and noticed he bought dunked wings.. I smiled at him.
Tshepi: Like them?
Me: Yes... a lot.
Tshepi: I figured.
We all ate while having light chats with Thato giving me stares that really sent shivers down my spine.
Me: I'm getting discharged tomorrow morning.
Tshepi: Yeah that doc told us.... we got everything covered, we're going back to Kimberly after your discharge.
Me: I don't like the way y'all control me.
Thato: We don't control you Zinhle.
Me: You decide what to do with my life without consulting me Thato, that's controlling.
Thato: Fine then where do you wanna go? you wanna live here in Kuruman?
Me: I... no... I... maybe I..
Tshepi: You're stuttering now?
He laughed causing me to smile but Mr moody kept his serious face on, mxm he thinks he's hot with that look.... okay maybe he is hot, not that much but more... fine it's confirmed he's hot.
Tshepi: Drooling over my brother now? he's 32 years old in case you didn't know.
Thato: And you're damn 35.
I gasped, they chuckled.
Thato: But I understand heyy I'm still hot despite that I'm 32.
Me: No you not 32.... and he's not 35.
Tshepi: I don't blame you, we get that a lot.
They laughed hard and did their hand sign which I didn't really understand. I see Thato can be all crazy and blubby around his brother.
Thato: Okay we kidding I'm not that old euww.
The last word got me laughing....
Tshepi: I mean whaaaat? argh euww no!
Okay they sound so gayish. I laughed as they acted like dramatic girls. We all laughed so hard that the nurse got in and told us to keep it low. I turned to them with a smile and they had their serious faces back on.
Me: And now?
Them: We never did that okay?
Okay that should be scaring me off but I found myself laughing at their lil threat.
Thato: Hlehle I never did that, Tsheps never did that okay?
Tsheps: Yeeah we never acted like that.
Me: Okay! okay fine.
I laughed as they gave me death stares.
***
We just arrived in Kimberly.
Tsheps: Will you be okay?
Me: Yes.
Thato: Sleep in my room, you know you sleep peacefully in there.
Me: Ohh... I... is it okay with you Tshepi?
Thato: Exee why would you ask that? I'm the room owner mos.
Tshepi: *laughs* It's okay with me Zee, if you're okay then I'm alright.
Thato: Ehh bann?
Tshepiso gave me a genuine smile, I walked upstairs.
TSHEPISO BOOYSEN
I loved seeing her loosening up and finally laughed, well that's what my brother and I planned.... at least she forgot about what she went through for much longer.
We drove off to the warehouse where they kept that bitch Becca and that mf called Sandile. We found them passed out on the chairs they were tied up on.
Thato: Blade bring the electrical cables.... we ain't gonna woke them up with water.
Blade: On it bozza!
Me: We not gonna have mercy on them T.... we better teach them a good lesson.
Thato: We not k!lling them Tsheps.
Me: We're not k!llers but they will definitely die but not on our hands.
I winked at him. We both fist bumped as Blade got in with the cables. They connected them as Thato and Isat in front of them and turned them on. They both screamed in agony....
Sandile: What the **** man? what the hell you doing? YOU!!! WHERE THE FÜCK IS MY GIRL!?
Me: Girl? wait T who is he talking about?
Thato: I have no idea.
Me: No, is he talking about our Zinhle?
Thato: He better not be talking about her cause she's no a girl.... she's a woman.
Sandile: I don't give a fück about that! I want her!
Thato: You don't give a fück? is that why you abused her?
Sandile: She knew what I was doing was for a reason! I never...
Me: Gents he needs a real beating.
They took out their sjamboks and some took out ropes. Becca was just terrified keeping her mouth shut but that doesn't mean we won't do anything.
Me: Do as you please with him gents.
They poured cold water on him before hitting him hard while he cried like a little girl.
Thato: That's what Zinhle felt everyday, now it's your damn time.
