CHAPTER 20
ZINHLE DUMAA Week Later
It's been a week now after all that has happened. Thato is hardly home so is Tshepiso. I don't know what they be busy doing all day and night, I didn't even get a chance to have a chat with t
Tshepiso and he's already leaving for Durban. He stood in front of me holding my hand near Thato's car.
Me: I'm gonna miss you.
Tshepi: I'm gonna miss you more, we didn't even spend much time together.
Me: Yeah, you be busy with whatever you were busy with mos wena noThato.
Tshepi: We had to.... mara s'ringile aker (we talked) that after you've fully recovered from therapy, uzoza uzohlala nami? (you'll live with me)
I like it when they speak Zulu, mxm their accents are just so good.
Me: Yes I will come.... about what you told me about Sandile, is it true?
Tshepi: Yes he's out of town and he'll never come back again.
I looked at him and smiled with teary eyes.
Me: Thank you.
Tshepi: I told you not to do that maan Zee, uyabona manje?
He wiped a tear that just rolled down. Thato pressed the hooter, mxm he's jealous.
Thato: Tsheps maan as'vaye! (let's go)
Me: Tshepiso.
Tshepi: Mhh?
Me: What did you mean when you said you want me the other day?
He checked the time on his wrist watch...
Tshepi: Eish I gotta go Zee.... or else I'mma arrive late in Durban. I'll call you okay?
He kissed my forehead and got in the car. Thato drove him off to the airport. And he decided to ignore my question, nice! let me just stop over thinking this. I got ready for my session and waited for Mrs Melendez while watching some show.
THATO BOOYSEN
Me: What were you two talking about for so long?
Tshepi: I don't think that concerns you bafo.
Me: You're too close for my liking.... she's not that close to me.
Tshepi: Who would be close to someone who's always grumpy and all serious?
Me: No I'm not always grumpy, I just don't laugh too much like you.
Tshepi: So you're expecting her to be free around you? nah bro try something else.
Me: I bet she asked you about Sandile because she didn't ask me.
He sighed closing his eyes and relaxed his back in the car seat.
Tshepi: She did.... kem chaetse dieman o vaile (I told her that guy left), I said he skipped the country after we threatened to get him arrested.
Me: Ohh not bad.... lenja deserved what happened to him vele.
Tshepi: And that stays between us T.
Me: I know...
We changed the topic and had our usual funny talks. I dropped him off the airport and went back to my place. I found her still with Candice (the therapist). I walked to my study room after greeting her. My phone rang immediately after I got in.
Me: Sure...
Caller: T? I'm coming tonight, I'm sleeping over.
Me: Wait, who's this?
Caller: Melow.
Me: Ohh no Mamello, we can't.... not in my house.
Melow: What changed? we always slept there mos.... are you with someone else?
Me: No.
Melow: Then I'm coming.
She cut the call. Yerr here goes another one! I can't even resist her she's hella good in bed. I don't know why but I feel like I'm gonna hurt Zinhle's feelings, mxaag what? she's not my woman so yeah I'mma do whatever I wanna do.
