The gangster girl:

Insert 76:

Zakhona is awake ,and has lines on her face ,indicating that she was sleeping 

Zakhona: Mbuso what do you want 

She is talking in a low tone, not shouting cause she just woke up and Mbuso is sitting next to her on the couch while she was folding her legs on top of the couch

Mbuso: I want to talk to you 

Zakhona: I am right here next to you,talk

Mbuso: I am sorry for everything

Zakhona: Mbuso you apologizing won't fix anything,you know that right?

Mbuso: I do but ...I want you to know that I have regrets for everything have done

Zakhona sigh and lie her head back ,as she folded her arms not looking at Mbuso's direction

Mbuso: sthandwa sami I want to change ,and ngizimisele [I am serious]

(No response)

Mbuso: I promise not to touch no woman expects you ,

Zakhona didn't respond

Mbuso: haw mawenganezami (mother of my children)

Zakhona: Mbuso stop it ,your tricks won't work on me ,izingane ziphi futh?

Mbuso: I am talking about the one in your tummy and the ones that are still coming 

Mbuso kept trying to make Zakhona smile and ..his tricks really worked cause Zakhona's annoyed face changed into a smile 

Zakhona: Mbuso you are crazy Shem nxx (smiling)

Mbuso: are you forgiving me?

As he held her hands 

Zakhona nods 

Mbuso: come here (they hugged)

And when Mbuso pulled out to engage with her into a deep kiss

But Zakhona avoided it

Zakhona: Mbuso no..

Mbuso: haw you now don't even want us to kiss?

Zakhona: it's not that Mbuso. I never said We are getting back together,I said I forgive you. I can't just date a man who slept with my sister how foolish is that?

Mbuso: huh? Zakhona what do you mean I don't get you. Sihle was a mistake I love you and not her please

Zakhona: I also loved you and not any other man but ...it's clearly that the same person I was claiming I love ,is the same one who hurted my feelings

Mbuso sigh and looks down then looks back at her making an eye contact while his eyes were full of tears

Mbuso: I love you ,you know that. I won't repeat what I did ever again

Zakhona: Mbuso please just don't make me repeat the same thing over and over again ...(she stands up)

Mbuso: so what are we gonna do with the baby?

Zakhona: we will raise the baby as a father and mom not a boyfriend and girlfriend

Mbuso stands up also 

Mbuso: fine fine i will marry you ,I will make you my wife if you are not comfortable being my girlfriend

Zakhona: no I don't want to be your wife ,it's better if we keep things..cool

Mbuso tuck his hands into his pockets looking down and swallowing hard

Zakhona: I loved you and I still do and I will never stop loving you but I guess it's time I choose myself and my health

Mbuso: Zakhona this is wrong it's actually unfair

Zakhona: how is it unfair?

Mbuso: I chose my you over my family, i had to sacrifice losing my father for you, even the day my father told mein the eye that he disowned me as his son ,I still chose you. I had to beg my mom to sacrifice losing her husband and get the pills for y..I mean I had to make...

Zakhona: what pills are you talking about?

Mbuso froze immediately

Zakhona: Mbuso answer me

Mbuso: i.meant...the pills ..the pills for ..yeah the pills for your healthy

Zakhona: I don't understand? please..tell me what are you trying to say to me

Mbuso: I mean I even made my mom sacrifice losing her husband because of escaping at home to go to shops and find the pills for you 

Zakhona: your mom? But you didn't give me any pills

Mbuso: yeah I didn't ..I didn't cause I was scared 

Zakhona:(sigh) I hear you , please give me some space

Mbuso: for how long?

Zakhona: I don't know just need some space ,(she left to upstairs)

Mbuso: Zakhona we are still talking how can you leave while we are still talking 

Zakhona:(turns) Mbuso I told you i need space ,leave me alone ,everytime when you need to talk to me it better be about the baby nothing else

Mbuso: you are really dumping me? What should I do then?you need me to be single?I ..I had a suprise for you and our baby

Zakhona: I don't need you the baby is the one needing you ,I don't care of your a surprises and ,I don't care whether you are single or not. It's not like I also found you single (she left)

Mbuso scratches his head in frustration as he left.

Mbuso was so stressed, didn't know what to do cause he just lost the love of his life,for real this time.Just as when he was about to changed for her,he wanted to be a better person for her and stop hurting her anymore but...she just called things off.

It's OVER.

Instead of going to a club ,he called one of his friends saying "Its a gents night today ,in my new house ,dont forget to bring girls and alcohol"

Yes Mbuso was building a new house from the money he gains from his father's money. His father gave him a share 2yrs ago in his money with Khaya but now Khaya is no more. May his souls rest in Peace ??

Tonight:

  

The house is so beautiful ,it's indeed a house of man who has a family but ...the owner doesn't which is Mbuso.He wanted to start his small family there chase now he had a baby and thought when time kept continuing he would end up marrying Zakhona.

.There were girls dancing and twerking ,Mbuso and his friends sitting on couches drinking alcohol 

Mbuso: let's celebrate my new house! And ...the return of the Old Mbuso!!

They all chereed and made a toast.

Mbuso was sitting on the couch and was now a little bit drunk ,chatting with one of his friends,that's when two girls came to them ,one sat on the guy's lap and the other one sat on Mbuso's

Girl: hey handsome 

Mbuso: hey baby girl ,Uhm... you're sitting on a lap of a father with children , please move 

Girl:(bites lips) what does that mean? Even married man cheat ?(as she came closer to his lips)

Mbuso: I said over please 

Girl: mxm whatever (she left)

Mbuso sigh as he scratches his head
