Cindy: bosslady i am at Cape Town

Zakhona: huh?why didn't you tell you 

Cindy: it was urgent I couldn't call youz my mom is sick

Zakhona: oh I am so sorry ,I wish she heals

Cindy: how did the surgery go?

Zakhona:(sigh) I am fine ,but...we lost one baby

Cindy: ow...that is so bad ,I am sorry you know I should be there comforting you I...

Zakhona: no don't feel bad ,I am now fine ,but i think it will take time for Mbuso to heal even though he didn't cry or overeat infront of me but I saw the sorrow in his eyes

Cindy: I would have also felt bad ,you know losing a baby is really not good 

Zakhona: yeah but at the end of the day we have to accept ,and imagine..me mother of two??yoh ,I try to shush this one and the other one cry yoh

Cindy:(laughs a little) it's really a hard work but they are a blessing from God

Zakhona: I wonder why God blessed me ke ,cause I really know that me and him are oil and water, oh maybe he was blessing Mbuso by using my belly to carry those blessings?

They both laugh 

Cindy: i enjoy speaking to you bosslady ,Uhm...but I need to leave mom needs me

Zakhona: I understand

Cindy: please try to heal and make sure you're there for the father of your kids

Zakhona: eh I am not sure about that 

Cindy: come on you can do it ,just be there for him ,he needs you 

Zakhona:(sigh) I will try , please come back soon we have to finish the work , remember this one is the last one

Cindy: yeah you said it's one last job against the Gatshenis then we are done

Zakhona: yes 

Cindy: okay ...(talks to background people) sorry bosslady I have to go 

Zakhona: sure 

They dropped the call together, just after that she got another call from Mbuso 

Zakhona: hello

Mbuso: mother of my childre..mother of my child

Zakhona:(sigh) I know it stills hurt ,I am so sorry I failed you 

Mbuso: no you didn't fail me ,it wasn't your intention also

Zakhona can hear him sniffing , that indicates he was crying 

Mbuso: Come over 

Zakhona: come over where?

Mbuso: I am inviting you ,or should I say we are inviting you 

Zakhona: Mbuso it's 21pm and you want me to drive to there?

Mbuso:(chuckles) no I meant Tommorow

Zakhona: haibo still I am not coming 

Mbuso: you are ,If you don't come I will fetch you 

Zakhona: usuyadakwa ,I will never set my foot there especially because I am pregnant

Zakhona: no it was a mistake again I am sorry hawu

Mbuso: mxm ,tommorrow at 8am you must be her

Zakhona: 8am? For what Mbuso there's no way I am coming there 

Mbuso: it's just a silly breakfast nothing more ,my Father wants to make peace with you 

Zakhona: oh by inviting me for a breakfast ,so I must just wake up early, not eat my breakfast, go bath and leave my house to come there for breakfast

Mbuso:(sigh) it's a breakfast of making peace sthandwa sami

Zakhona: no no no i am not agreeing with that

Zakhona: Mbuso don't 

Mbuso: please ,look I will be the one to fetch you 

Zakhona: breakfast kodwa Mbuso,not even inviting me for dinner at least

Mbuso: unescefe you know I prepared for this call to be 2minutes but we have talked for half an hour

Zakhona: come on half an hour?

Mbuso: yeah ,(chuckles) anyway ,is the baby and you fine?

Zakhona: it's not even a complete baby yet 

Mbuso: mxm still it's my baby ,are you guyz fine?

Zakhona: we are good I am just worried about you 

Mbuso: I am fine 

Zakhona: mm okay that's a good thing ,

Mbuso: ngyakuthanda [I love you]

Zakhona: okay 

Mbuso: I love you too ,futsek 

He drops as Zakhona laughs alone shaking her head as she went to sleep 

She didn't even bother herself to Kae a bath ,she was so tired and the stitches are still hurting , she's not able to move freely with energy 

.

.

She woke up and made herself breakfast before she bathed ,spent her day indoors and Mbuso checking if she is still coming for dinner today 

It's now the time she drives to the Gatsheni house

Zakhona: there's no way I am gonna dress like a Makoti ,

She says to herself cause Mbuso said on the call she must wear something appropriate

She wore a long white dress ,it is actually beyond her knees , early pregnancy suddenly made her like white instead of black as usual

When she arrived there ,she had to explain to the bodyguards first why is she here.

Zakhona: even if you didn't allow me to get in I would have got in ,with no one's help but myself nxx(she drove in closing the window)Called Mbuso cause she couldn't get in herself ,as he came out of the house and help her out of the car 

Zakhona:(trembling)it's cold Shem

Mbuso: mm you wore perfecr ,just that it's white I am used to black

Zakhona: I didn't wear this because you said so ,I wore this dress cause i just felt inlove with it
