CHAPTER 29
ZINHLE DUMAI decided to cook since brothers aren't in the mood to go out anymore. I almost felt hurt by Thato's reaction towards me, but quickly recalled that Tshepiso said he's short tempered, so I gotta be easy on him.
I just cooked something simple, rice and mince. I waited for them since they both drove out, but only Tshepiso came back around 9 pm.
Me: Where's Thato?
Tshepi: I don't know, he's probably smashing....
Me: Smashing?
Tshepi: Yeah, he does that when he's angry or hurt.... take out the pain and anger on some b¡tches.
No, he wouldn't do that. Not after I gave him a chance out of deep consideration, he wouldn't dare.
Tshepi: Zinhle!
Me: Huh?
Tshepi: Hayibo, I've been calling you. Kere, did you cook? it smells nice in here.
Me: Ohh yes, I did..... can't we wait for Thato?
Tshepi: He might not come back, so I can't die out of Hunger Zee.
I faked my smile and nodded, going to dish up for him.
Tshepi: Mhh, it tastes nice. Aren't you gonna eat?
Me: No, I'll wait for him.
Tshepi: Hawu Zee, I told you, njee, he might not come back.
Me: If he knows what's good for him, he will come back.
Yes, he doesn't know I'm dating Thato yet, so he's a little bit confused. I took his phone.
Me: Can I make a call?
Tshepi: I thought you wouldn't ask for my permission since you took my phone without asking.
Me: Mxm.
I went to the balcony and dialed Thato's number, and it went ringing unanswered. I tried multiple times, but he still didn't answer, and that's when I took Tshepi's words to heart. He must be fücking someone, mxm who am I kidding? This is Thato we're talking about.
Me: Thanks.
I said, giving the phone back.
Tshepi: I'm gonna buy you one, okay?
Me: What?
Tshepi: A new phone.
Me: No, Tshepi, I'm okay... for real, I don't need a new phone.
Tshepi: Will you survive without a phone?
I nodded. He kept eating while blubbering things I don't even remember now since I'm thinking about Thato, and he walked to his room afterward. I checked all the windows if they're closed since it was already passed 10. I also checked if all the doors and gates are locked. I went to his room. It doesn't feel the same without him, I feel lonely without his presence. After what felt like forever, I finally dozed off.
**
In the morning, I woke up, and he still wasn't beside me. I rolled outta the bed and neatly made it. I did my morning routine and walked downstairs in my short tight and that fûck boy's tee.
As I was busy making breakfast, Tshepi came down freshened up in his shorts and vest.
Tshepi: Good morning, Zee.
There's nothing good about this morning.
Me: Hey. I'm m almost done, have your seat.
Tshepi: Ohh, thank you.
I don't know if it's me, but I really think he's changed towards me.
Tshepi: No, I didn't change, I'm still the same Tshepi, you know.
Oh, how I just forgot how he gets to read people's minds.
Tshepi: I'm just going through the most right now.
Me: Ohh, okay, I understand, but what I don't understand is how you read my mind.
Tshepi: Your facial expression talks Zee-zee.
Me: No, not Zee-zee, though.
We laughed as I continued dishing up for both of us. I sat beside him afterward.
Me: So what's going on with your life?
Tshepi: I just found out that I have a child.
Me: A what?
Tshepi: Yes, that! plus my brother's murderër.
Me: Ohh that. I'm sorry about that.
Tshepi: It has passed.
Me: Passed? Did you get that mf arrested for k¡lling your brother?
Tshepi: No, and I'm not gonna do that.
Me: Tshepiso? why?
He finished off his coffee.
Tshepi: Thanks for the nice breakfast... I'm heading out now.
He kissed my cheek and headed out only to bump into Thato.... mxm I'm not gonna talk to him... I continued having my breakfast.
Thato: Good morning, baby.
Shem the audacity he got! He just greeted me like nothing happened! worse, he came and hugged me from behind since I was on the high chair.
Thato: Hawu mami?
Me: Leave me alone, Thato.
Thato: Okay.
He let go of me and headed towards the stairs.
Me: Where are you coming from Thato?
Thato: You said I should leave you alone, so what now?
He continued to walk.
Me: So you're still a fûck boy, huh? you just had to sleep at one of your b!tches just after I agreed to be with you, Thato?
He stopped on his tracks but didn't turn back.
Thato: I really don't have time for this.
Wow... and he just disappeared to his room. I blinked my tears away and swallowed a lump that just formed. I know he's going through a lot, but that doesn't mean he should treat me like this.... going out and cheating? is he for real? I got off the chair and went to do the dishes. Afterward, I walked to his room and found him not in the room. I heard the water running from the shower, so he's obviously taking a shower.
I just walked to the closet and took out my clothes... after some time, the en suite door slid opened, and he appeared with a towel around his waist, showing his v-line, I looked at the water dripping down on his abs to his v-line. He didn't have to look so hot, though.... oh my, is that a d¡ck print? I'm not sure if I'm gonna survive here. The frown he had on his face pulled me back from my own thoughts.
Thato: What are you doing?
Me: Packing my things.
Thato: I can see that. Where the hell are you going?
Me: I'm moving back to my room so you can stop sleeping out and bring them in here. I'm moving out of this room.
Thato: Mxm argh, stop being childish Zinhle.
Ohh and now I'm childish?
Me: You can go and find someone mature.
Thato: You're being dramatic right now.
Me: Ohh really? Then go and find polite one to bear all your actions! We haven't even dated for a day, but you're already sleeping out Thato.
Thato: Sleeping out doesn't mean I'm fücking some girl Zinhle.
I kept quiet and continued with my packing. He grabbed my hand pulling me closer to him. I swallowed as I felt my tities against his wet bare skin, turning me on.
Thato: I didn't fûck anyone.
Me: *whispers* Ohh...
Where did my voice disappear now?
Thato: I won't ever do that to you Hlehle.
Me: Then where did you go the whole night leaving me alone in this bed?
Thato: I'm not gonna tell you I...
I moved from his grip, he held me from behind.... now my back was against his body.
Thato: I'm gonna show you....
Me: Show me what?
Thato: Where I spent my night.
He bit my earlobe breathing out in my ear. I felt my throat becoming dry, I swallowed as he made his way to my neck... I shifted my head giving him more access.
Thato: I'm in love with your boöbs.
Me: Ohh yeah?
I was already losing my breath. As I wished this moment could last, he perked my neck and loosened the grip from my waist.
Me: Thato?
Thato: Mmh?
He was already standing by the mirror drying his upper body.. Mxm I walked out leaving my bags behind, I just hate how I let him get to me like that.
