I Fell In Love With My Father 📚⚖

Part 176

Ukudla ku Zasembo kwaku ngehli kahle, ne appetite ingekho.

Waphakamisela uwaiter wabo isandla wabiza, wayazi yini ayeyidinga—selokhe kusile engakaze abuthi mbibi.

"Can I please have two shots of Tequila Silver."

The waiter nodded and walked off to place the order.

Kwaba ukuflathela, uLeleti wabuka umawakhe ngelinye ihlo.

"Tequila Silver?"

Wayengamazi ephuza oTequila omawakhe.

"Mom, it's Sunday," wahleka.

Wadonsa iglass ye orange juice uZasembo wayigalela emphinjeni yonke engathi uphuza amanzi.

Watshela uLeleti ukuthi akamumele, zaziningi kabi izinto ezazisekhanda lakhe.

Waqhubeka nokudla uLeleti kodwa engawasusile amehlo ku mawakhe. She could feel something was wrong. Ebazi abazali bakhe, ebonile ngisho efika kubo ukuthi khona okwenzekayo phakathi kwabo.

Kanti before bazodla badlula eHotela bathatha isuitcase la mawakhe, okwathi uma emubuza lalifike kanjani lapha wathi bebezikhiphile no aunty bakhe.

But Leleti didn't buy it, she knew her mother too well. She didn't lie well when she was breaking inside.

Wabuya uwaiter nama tequila shot, kwaba ukuwabeka phambi kwa Zasembo wawaphakamisa womabili and downed them one after the other.

Wanikina ikhanda kancane uLeleti, waqala no Zasembo wazizwa ephaphama umzimba wakhe usuthole ukudla kwawo, wathola noku stronger kulokhu.

Kodwa kwabuya nezinkinga zakhe ngokushesha zaphithizela ekhanda.

Wayengeke athuke ngisho ethola ukuthi lendoda ayazi ukuthi uyishiye endlini, kwaba ukuphuma kwabo yalandela.

Ucabanga umyeni wakhe nje uZasembo, no Nkosiyabo wayecabanga lezinkinga ayesezilethe emzini wakhe.

Kodwa kwaku ngasilo icala ukushintsha umqondo wakhe—engasoze wayeka ukum'thanda uZasembo.

Umuzi ka yise umkhulu ubanele bonke.

Ngabo 3pm base besendleleni ebheke emlazi.

Kwathi uma ebonga uOmnene nge weekend ababebe nayo, washawa amahloni uNkosiyabo.

Waxolisa naye ngokuthi iweekend ingahambi ngendlela aye plane ngayo.

Kodwa kunokuthi adinwe uOmnene, wavele wa smile. Wabeka isandla ethangeni la Nkosiyabo wali squeeza kancane.

"It's okay, love," she said. "And honestly... it wasn't your fault. Kodwa iweekend engingasoze ngayikhohlwa."

Wamamatheka uOmnene, ne smile sakhe softened him ngokushesha.

Wabamba isandla sakhe wasiqabula.

Kwisona nesizathu esasimenza am'thande kangaka lomuntu wesifazane.

She didn't make things complicated.

Wayemu undertstanda.

Emunika ipeace.

Wam'thembisa ukuthi next time angeke yenzeke into efana nale, eseshiswa nawukuthi vele umkakhe wayesazi ngabo.

Okwase kusele ukuthi benze izinto zibe sem'thethweni, ukuze babeyohamba ngokukhululeka nanoma ikuphi.

Okwamanje kwaku nezindawo uNkosiyabo ayengeke aze ahambe no Omnene ngenxa yegama lakhe, hayi ngoba ayem'fihla kodwa ebazi abantu bamaphepha babenganqeni ukubhala umathanda wabo, bengathi bayavuka ngelinye ilanga bagcwele emaphepheni kuthiwa uzibamba ngenkani izingane ezincane, kungabe kusaba ukuthi bayaqala ukumbona nayo.

Kwiyona yonke leyonto eyayenza afuna ukum'thatha ngokuphelele, engasiye umuntu ayefuna ukum'cashisa or emubona engu makhwapheni wakhe.

Eceleni uOmnene wayeseze wacamela engalweni yakhe uNkosiyabo.

Wayengasekho lapho ngokomcabango, ecabanga lescefe ayosifica endlini emazi umfundisi wayengeke angathethi.

Kodwa kakhulukazi wayecabanga ngabo no Nkosiyabo.

Ngo mkakhe.

Nange future yabo.

"Wasuthula kangaka?"

Wamqabula esiphongweni uNkosiyabo wabuya nomqondo ka Omnene.

"Ngisazela..."

Wam'phakamisa ikhanda uNkosiyabo wamubukisisa ebe ehleka ebuza nokuthi ubenzani ebusuku ngoba balala ngisho emncishile ikhekhe.

She laughed, wathi vele kwasekuqaleni kwakumele amncishe kuze kube umfaka iring.

Sagijima phezu kwe jean ka Omnene ngaphambili isandla sa Nkosiyabo, wabuza ukuthi lokho kwakusho ukuthi ngoba iring isikhona—noma inini, noma ikuphi uyalisika ikhekhe?

Waphela insini uOmnene, bahleka bobabili like teenagers in love.

Lwathi maluphela uhleko, zehla neziqhomo ku Omnene wa serious nasebusweni.

"I think..." wagwinya amathe. "I think kuzomele siqale sisebenzise iprotection, Tshabalala."

The moment those words left her mouth kwashintsha nomoya emotweni.

Ismile sasingakasuki emlomeni ku Nkosiyabo, kodwa amehlo akhe esekhuluma okunye.

"You don't trust me?" wehlisa nezwi wasusa nesandla ethangeni la Omnene.

Wanikina ikhanda ngokushesha Omnene wabamba nesandla sa Nkosiyabo.

"Cha, baby... akusikho lokho."

"Then why manje?"

She took a deep breath because the truth was complicated.

Wayem'thanda, kodwa engazazi izindlela ayezihamba uNkosiyabo uma enaye, esaba izifo, emubona nokuthi wayeyisoka.

But she couldn't say all that.

So she chose the safest answer.

"I'm just not ready for umntwana okwamanje... ziningi nezinto engisafisa ukuzenza empilweni yami, Mavuso."

Waphendula ikhanda kancane uNkosiyabo babukana. Kwake kwathi akahleke kancane.

Kodwa wanqekuzisa ikhanda, kodwa ngaphakathi esho ukuthi uyadlala lomfaza... manje ucabanga ukuthi kuyolindwa aqede lezozinto zakhe kuqala ukuze kwande umndeni?

Wahluleka ukuzibamba uNkosiyabo wagcina ehleka kancane, ecabanga ukuthi wayedlala lomuntu phela yena kwakufana nokuthi akazele kulezingane ayenazo.

Waze wabuza uOmnene ukuthi uhlekani manje—waqhubeka nokumoyizela uNkosiyabo kodwa wathi akwilutho.

"Hayi angeke phela sithi sikhuluma into ebaluleke kangaka uhleke, kodwa ungasho uhlekani?"

"Hawu bakwethu, sekwicala manje ukuhleka?"

Kwathi uma emubuka nge smile uNkosiyabo, wagcina emoyizela naye uOmnene.

Part 175

Waqeda ukudla uOmnene, wabuka iTV.

Izikhathi kwase kuyoshaya ohalf past one... eselokhe ebuka newashi ezibuza nokuthi kanti uNkosiyabo uphi?

Namhlanje kwakumele aphindele eMlazi, novalo seluvele lwaqala phansi engazi wayezofike aqambe maphi amanga ku mfundisi, ene sure nokuthi wayekade eqalile emfonela.

Kodwa okuhlekisayo waye ngakhathazekile kakhulu ngo mfundisi okwamanje, ezikhumbulela isoka lakhe.

Wasuka wadonsa ilandline wam'fonela, nenamba ka Nkosiyabo wayeseyazi ngenhliziyo.

Lwaringa kabili, then he pickes up.

"Hey lover..." wabingelela uOmnene.

"Muntu wami."

Kwathi uma esho njalo uNkosiyabo wancibilika uOmnene.

"Lalela, ngisendleleni uze lapho... ubusudlile?"

Indlela ajabula ngayo ngaphakathi uOmnene ezwa elokuthi usendleleni, wavuma wathi usanda kudla.

"Bengithi kwi note uthi you were just stepping out quickly."

Wamuzwa ehleka kancane uNkosiyabo, wayazi kahle uyazi ubekuphi kodwa naye akuvumanga ukuthi akukhiphe ngomlomo.

"Things got a bit busy... kodwa ngiyeza manje."

Wam'tshela ukuthi uzom'fica emlindile, wavalelisa uOmnene, kwaba ukulivala ucingo wamamatheka yedwa.

It was strange how someone who wasn't even in front of her could make her feel like this, like she had known him forever—like waiting for him was the only thing that mattered.

Wafika eZimbali ngabo 3 uNkosiyabo, nemoto yakhe eyayibulewe uZasembo yayisilandiwe.

Kube ukuphuma nje ko mkakhe nendodakazi yabo, wathi ubonwa yini.

Wangena eroomini yabo, wabona kuvele izinyawo kwi balcony ukuthi uOmnene uhleli phandle.

Waqonda kuye esemubuza ukuthi iscabha asi lockiwe ngani? Emtshela njalo ukuthi uma eyedwa, akojwayela uku locka noma ngabe kuphephe kanjani.

Kunokuthi aphendule uOmnene wasukuma phansi ngeskhulu ismile uma emubona, wasondela kuye and wrapped her arms around him.

Wanikina ikhanda kancane uNkosiyabo emoyizela.

"That's your answer?"

Wamuphakamisa ikhanda babhekana emehlweni.

"I missed you."

Wabumba umlomo uOmnene waze wawusondeza kuye afuna amqabula.

That made him laugh under his breath.

"I missed you too," wam'qaba, nezandla zehla zamubamba kwi waits.

He studied her for a moment, then added:

"Usuthile?"

Wamoyizela uOmnene wanqekuzisa nekhanda.

"I did. Your little surprise didn't give me a choice."

He smirked.

"Good."

His eyes scanned her face for a second longer than usual.

"Namanje ngisakubuka ngingakholwa ukuthi lobohle obungaka obami."

Wakhophoza uOmnene, warolla namehlo playfully.

"You never miss a chance to flatter me, do you?"

Wasondeza isphongo uNkosiyabo bancikana ngazo, wamubuza ukuthi uma engasanconywa uyena kumele anconywe ubani.

Part 174

Kwaba ukugoqwa kwe nkonzo, uZipho uyena owokuqala owasukuma waphuma efa nawukucasuka ekhalela nesikhathi sakhe esingaka ayesimoshile.

Waphuma eshesha uGrace emulandela.

Kwathi eyophuma nge sango lase sontweni uZipho eqondwe emontweni yakhe wamumemeza uGrace.

"Sorry, bhuti..."

Waphenduka uZipho, waphenduka kulo sisi owayelokhe emubuka esontweni.

"Sawubona, yazi ngiyakufanisa..."

Washo ebe esondela uGrace, wabona uZipho emubuka ngokudideka.

"I don't mean to be rude... igama uGrace."

Kwaba ukuzwa igama wabuya umqondo ku Zipho ukuthi leligama wayengaqali ukulizwa, eseke walizwa ku Omnene.

Waqala wane smile, wasondeza ne sandla.

"Ngiyajabula ukukwazi, Grace," he said. "Ngu Ziphozonke mina."

Safika emadlebeni ne smile ku Grace.

"Ohh finally, ngize ngimubone lo Zipho. Yazi ngihleli lapha ngilokhe ngisho ukuthi lobuso angiqali ukubona, kwikona ke ukuthi ngikwazela ezithombeni."

Wamamatheka uZipho waze washalaza wajabula nakancane uma ecabanga ukuthi shuthi uOmnene wayesanazo izithombe zakhe.

Wabona uGrace kuyena muntu ayengam'sebenzisa ekuwineni back uOmmene.

So he decided to carefully play along.

"I'm glad to finally meet you too, uOmnene ubehlezi ekhuluma ngawe," amanga aphuma azishibilikela.

Wancuma uGrace ebuza nokuthi engabe wayesethini ke ngaye.

Kwathi uZipho uma ethi ubezitshela ukuthi uzomubona no Omnene enkonzweni kodwa udumele.

That changed the atmosphere immediately.

Impendulo yathi, "Akekho uzikhiphe nabangane baye kwi vacation."

"Nabangani?"

Abangani ba Omnene wayebazi, futhi azi nokuthi iningi lalikade lamgcina.

Kwibaphi-ke laba uGrace ayekhuluma ngabo?

Kwam'fikela ukuthi amanga lawo kodwa wangatshengisa ku Grace.

"Uyazi mhlampe uzobuya nini?"

"Mfonele umbuze."

Wahleka kancane uZipho uma ezwa leyo mpendulo.

"Ngizamile, kodwa akawabambi ama calls ami."

Wahleka no Grace, nabantu esontweni base beqala bephuma.

Wathatha amanye ama steps wasondela ku Zipho, babhekana emehlweni.

"Uke wacabanga mhlampe ukuthi akawabambi ngoba engafuni ukukhuluma nawe, nokuk'bona?"

Am'shaya lawo magama uZipho ngoba nama signs ayephambi kwakhe kodwa engafuni uku admitta.

"Uqonde ukuthini?"

Grace just smiled faintly, like she had already said enough.

"Ngiqonde ukuthi mhlampe sekwi skhathi sokuthi uyeke lento oyenzayo—uzimoshela iskhathi uzizwisa nobuhlungu."

Lawomagama amutshela konke uZipho.

"Uhambe kahle, Zipho."

And just like that, wahamba uGrace wasala emile uZipho edidekile kodwa kunakho konke efa ukudinwa.

Wake wandwaza emubuka uGrace ephelela emehlweni akhe phakathi kwabazalwane abase begcwele igceke lesonto.

Waqonda emotweni yakhe esedumele, kodwa kunakho konke ezisola ngokudlala ngo Omnene.

Part 173

Wabuza uZasembo ebona nezikhwama ezazifike nendodakazi yakhe ukuthi kanti kwenzakalani eskoleni, wayixoxa indaba uLeleti sebeze bahlala kwi couch esitting room wathi kunezingane ezingayitholile ifunding manje ziya protesta zikhishwa nasema res.

Okwashiwo uZasembo ukuthi wenzekahle wabuya angaze alimale naye.

Washisha wayishintsha ne subject uLeleti wathi ulambile... wayikhomba ekhishini indodakazi yakhe uZasembo kodwa ya suggesta ukuthi aphume bayodla ilunch just the three of them kwazise kwakuyi Sunday futhi.

Wanwaya ikhanda uZasembo.

"Oh... baby, I don't know if that's a good idea. Ubaba wakhe unomsebenzi omningi omubambile kulezinsuku. Sikhuluma nje silokhe sivukile uzivalele kulela office lakhe."

"Then we'll leave him," wamuhlala emadevini uLeleti. "Sohamba sobabili."

Wake wacabanga ukunqaba uZasembo.

Eqinisweni, she didn't feel like going anywhere.

Emotionally, she was exhausted.

But look at her daughter's excited face, how could she say no?

"Okay..." she finally sighed. "Ithi ngiyoshintsha ke kuqala."

Wasukuma phansi uZasembo, wasukuma no Leleti naye wathi ufuna ukuyoshintsha lezimpahla ayezigqokile.

Yahamba phambili indodakazi yakhe, wayibuka uZasembo wezwa egcwala ubuhlungu.

Leleti was everything to her.

Emva kokujikelwa uNkosiyabo kanje wayesesaba nange ngane yakhe, ukuthi ngelinye ilanga nayo liyofika leli langa im'jikele.

Kona eyoyitshela kanjani ngalombhedo kayise wokuthatha umfazi wesibili?

Futhi engathathi umfazi nje kepha ezothatha ingane ecishe ilingane naye uLeleti.

How do you even say those words out loud?

Wangena ekamereni umyeni wakhe esegqoka eqeda kugeza.

Waphenduka uNkosiyabo ahlangana namehlo abo, yabuya ngokushesha ne tension phakathi kwabo.

Wagwinya amathe uZasembo, waqonda ku wardrobe wam'tshela ukuthi indodakazi yabo yayifuna bayodla ilunch.

Kwathi uNkosiyabo uma ethi akazuphumelela, washeshe wamungena emlomeni uZasembo.

"It's okay, indodakazi yakho vele ngiyitshele ukuthi unomsebenzi omningi."

Wazama ukukhuluma uNkosiyabo kodwa waphakamisa isandla uZasembo wamumisa, wamutshela ukuthi akafuni indodakazi yabo ibone noma yazi yonke lento eyayenzeka lapha endlini.

A part of her still hoped this entire thing wasn't real. That somehow he would wake up mhlampe kusasa and he'd lost his mind. That he wasn't serious about marrying that girl.

Waqonda ebathroom uZasembo, wasala emile uNkosiyabo waphenduka naye.

Wayazi iyodwa into eyayiyolungisa izinto phakathi kwabo no Zasembo, ukuhlukana no Omnene.

Kodwa lokho kwakufana nokuthi wayefuna ukumubalala ephila, ngoba waye ngasayiboni impilo ngaphandle kwaleya ngane.

Part 172

Kwaku 10:34AM uGrace engena esontweni—e late ngendlela exakile, afika nenkonzo isiqale kudala.

Waye blame no Muzi kukona konke lokhu, ayengafuni nokuthi eze esontweni amuncenga waze wagcina ekhathala ethi akangahambi.

Akazange aye nokohlala phambili uGrace, wangena wahlala emuva—ajika naye namehlo.

Wabingelela nge smile kwabazalwane ayehleli eduze nabo, kodwa indlela ababemubuka ngayo kwaku ngathi bayasola uphuma endodeni.

Kwangena ubhungu lensizwa kwajika wonke amakhanda, esazibuza uGrace ukuthi konje lobuso ubazelaphi.

Wabuya ngok'shesha umqondo ukuthi umazela ku Omnene lo mfana—kuyena Ziphozonke ayeke wamubona esthombeni ocingweni la Omnene.

Wahlala phansi uZipho, amehlo akhe agijima efuna lomuntu owayeyisizathu esasim'lethe lapha.

Omnene.

Amehlo akhe agijima abazalwane bonke kodwa lutho ukumubona.

The church was packed, but still... he knew Omnene well enough to spot her immediately.

And she wasn't there.

Wabuka iskhathi ewashini esandleni, kwathi akaphume nangaso leso skhathi esevele wacasuka nokuba lapha.

Wathi eshumayela umfundisi phambili ekhanda la Zipho kwase kuduma lo beer ayewushiye endlini efridgen. Ephuma nasendlini ngoba enethemba lokuthi uzobona uOmnene bakhulume balungise izinto, ngoba ithemba namanje engalilahlile futhi engabona wayeyoke alilahle.

Wayelapha nje wayelizonda nesonto, kodwa engenza noma yini ukubona uOmnene.

Ama calls akhe waye ngasawaphenduli nhlobo, and the last time he had tried calling her on Friday her phone had been switched off completely.

Athi megijima amehlo ka Zipho wabona ku sisi owayelokhe embhekile.

Ayezibuza kona uGrace ukuthi ubekwa yini uZiphozonke lapha?

Wangena ku WhatsApp ngaleso skhathi no Grace wathumela uOmnene umyalezo emubuza ukuthi ukuphi kwaba ukuphela.

Wayesebonile nokuthi kusho kona akakabuyi uma engekho phambili la ayehlala khona.

Kwakwima ephaphama uOmnene, ayekade evuka kodwa ubuthongo buphindi bumubamba azumeke.

Wavula amehlo and the first thing she noticed was the empty space beside her.

Amehlo akhe agijima iroom yonke kodwa akabonanga lutho ka Nkosiyabo, kunalokho wabona inote kwi beside table.

Wavuka wahlala ngezinqa, wayithatha wayifunda:

"Hey sunshine... sorry you'll wake up without me. I had to rush out. Ngiku ordele ibreakfast bazoyiletha eroomini ngo 11. See you later. I love you."

Lowo 'I love you' wamenza wamamatheka yedwa.

Wabuka ne ring emnweni, wathatha neskhathi wayibukisisa kahle, wezwa nenhliziyo igxuma ngaphakathi.

Uvalo lona lalusakhona, kodwa emva kwengxoxo ababebe nayo izolo no Nkosiyabo wayesezitshelile akayindawo—umfazi wakhe kuyomele am'kele ukuthi usekhona.

Indoda yakhe yayim'tshele ukuthi akakhohlwe abantu—kwikona ayezimisele ngokukwenza manje.

Leya ring yayisho okukhulu kuye—iwuphawu lothando ayenalo ngempela ngaye.

Iskhathi esiningi wayephatheka kabi uma emazi unomfazi wakhe, kodwa namhlanje akuzange kube mhlungu ndawo evuka engekho—azi nokuthi unaye la ekhona.

Kodwa emkhumbule, kodwa engakhathazekile ngoba wayazi uzobuya.

Esajululile uOmnene waphazanyiswa, wavuka wafaka igown wabamba wayobheka.

Kwase kuzolethwa ibreakfast yakhe, wayithatha wabonga, kodwa waqala ngokuyogeza.

I Fell In Love With My Father 📚⚖

Part 171

Wabheka ama emails akhe uNkosiyabo kodwa umqondo wawungekho kulento ayeyenza, umwondo wakhe kept drifting back to everything that had happened.

The entire weekend had been chaos.

Wayengazi nokuthi iyophetha kanje, ecancel nama meetings akhe abalulekile just to spend iskhathi no Omnene. Something he normally never did for anyone.

And somehow he still didn't regret it.

Noma kwaku ngasiyo indlela ayefisa ukum'tshela ngayo le umkakhe, kodwa ukum'thatha uOmnene amenze umfazi wakhe akusiyo into avele walala wavuka eseyicabangile.

Kusukela ngosuku aqala ngalo ukumubona—akazange abone lengane bonke abantu ababeyibona ku Omnene, wabona umfazi wakhe.

Wasukuma wantanta ioffice lonke uNkosiyabo ngoba kwayena waye ngakaze wazicabanga ethatha umfazi wesibili, ewagijimisile impela amantombazane kodwa kwaku phelela lapho.

Esajule kanjalo waphazanyiswa ukuringa kocingo lwakhe.

Walithatha phezu kwetafula wabuka iscreen.

Leleti.

Waliphendula ngokushesha.

"Baba, I'm outside," she said. "Ngicela ungivulela igate."

Esathi ufuna ukubuza ukuthi icode akasayazi yini, wakhumbula ukuthi basanda kuyishintsha ezinsukwini.

"Alright, sweetheart."

Wavala ucingo waqonda kwi balcony eyayibhekene ne driveway.

Nangempela waqhamuka imoto isimile esangweni, zasho zavuleka nezicabha zangaphambili.

Washaya icode ocingweni lwakhe lavuleka igate.

Kwaba ukubona indodakazi yakhe yehla emotweni wane smile esincane.

Waphuma no driver, badiliza ama suitcase amabili ngemuva.

Wadidwa ilezikhwama ezingaka uNkosiyabo, wazibuza ukuthi ngoba azivaliwe nje izikole, lemthwalo engaka yayiyaphi?!

Wabonga ku driver uLeleti, wadonsa izikhwama zakhe wangena ngaphakathi.

Waphakamisa isandla uma ebona uyise emi kwi balcony.

"Babah."

Nkosiyabo smiled and waved back. Seeing her always softened something inside him.

Waphindela endlini wavala ilaptop yakhe wayohlangabeza indodakazi yakhe.

Wezwa efikelwa izinyembezi uLeleti esekubo, wakhululeka nomoya wakhe.

Wanyukela kwama stairs ka veranda waqhamuka no yise esevule nezandla.

"Awushongo ngani ngikulande."

Wafike kuyo indodakazi yakhe uNkosiyabo wayisonga ngezingalo before kissing her forehead.

Wamubamba uLeleti uyise, uNkosiyabo waze wafikelwa nawukuthi khona into ewrong.

Noma kusayilento eyenzeka eskoleni emthusile?

Babhekana emehlweni wayibamba emehlombe indodakazi yakhe.

"How are you feeling now?" he asked.

"Much better already," she forced a smile. "Honestly, just being home make me feel safe again."

"I'm glad," washo ebe edonsa izikhwama uNkosiyabo beyongena endlini.

Bangena esehambe ebuza uNkosiyabo ukuthi kwenzakalani eskoleni sakhe?

Wabalekisa amehlo uLeleti, engakaphenduli kwaqhamuka uZasembo at the top of the staircase.

The moment she saw indodakazi yakhe, her entire face changed.

"Ohhh my baby..." everything softened. "Come here."

Wehla ngama stairs no Leleti wagijimela umawakhe nge smile bafike ba hug-ana very tightly.

uZasembo held onto indodakazi yakhe longer than usual, almost like she didn't want to let go.

And honestly? Maybe she didn't.

Leleti pulled back ebe ehleka.

"Ma... I'm not going anywhere."

Walwa izinyembezi uZasembo ayezizwa zishisa ngaphakathi and forced a smile.

"You better not."

Kwathi uma ephakamisa amehlo uZasembo ehlangana nawa myeni wakhe, wamubona ewabalekisa.

Wathatha ikhwama zendodakazi yakhe uNkosiyabo.

"I'll take these upstairs."

Baqonda ekhishini oZasembo nendodakazi yakhe behambe bexoxa, waqonda ekamereni lendodakazi yakhe uNkosiyabo.

Waqala manje washaya uvalo sekufike uLeleti, ebone nehlo umkakhe ayemubuke ngalo.

Ekugcineni izingane zakhe zazizokwazi ngalento, ezilindele nezinkulumo ezaziyolandela mhla zithola ukuthi lomuntu wesifazane ayem'tholile wayengazilama.
