Mbuso: oh so you mean your baby would rather be affected than to stop thinking boxing of yours?

Zakhona: I never said that 

Mbuso:(sighs faintly) Zakhona you want us to also lose her?

Zakhona: huh?(frowns) what do you mean 

Mbuso: we lost Owami ,and now you want us to lose her

Zakhona: Owami? Who is that ..wait Mbuso it's not what I am thinking ,tell me please

Mbuso: it is 

Zakhona: so our other baby's name is Owami? When did you name her?

Mbuso: few days ago 

Zakhona: ncoow (smiling) come her 

Opening her arms for a hug

Mbuso: angifuni, I don't want to hug you cause you also don't want us to get back together

Zakhona: haaa? Really?(chuckling)

Mbuso nods ,As was laughing a little

Mbuso: but on a serious note , Zakhona please this will affect our baby ,we can't also lose her. I have lost too many people so I can't also lose the one and only last person who I care for?

Zakhona: one and only? What about me ke?

Mbuso: I also lost you ,

Zakhona:(sadly) Mbuso you didn't lose me (holding his hands) I am still here ,just that not as your girlfriend but as your friend,and the mother of your child

Mbuso: I want you to be my wife ke also ,not only the mother of my baby

Zakhona: I can't , me and you will no longer get back together ,uyadlalana wena (bumping his stomach in playing)

Mbuso: I don't , so you are rejecting my proposal

Zakhona: mxm ,ey let me go Mbuso it's late ,it's 17pm now

Mbuso: Zakhona please don't ignore my messages, stop that thing ,it's drives me crazy 

Zakhona:(smiling)I won't anymore 

Mbuso nods 

Mbuso: and please ...stop that (punching the air)

Zakhona: (sigh) I will think about it 

Mbuso: do it and dont think about it ,bye 

Zakhona wave as she gets into the car 

Mbuso comes towards it as Zakhona opened it 

Mbuso: I wish I could reverse time ,I can't imagine that I refused that hug

Zakhona:(laughs a little) you are crazy mxm 

As she started the car and left,

Mbuso release a big sigh as he takes out a ring from his pocket and looks at it as he sigh again going to his car

At Gatsheni house:

They are eating dinner ,all sitting on the table while Khosi keeps looking at her phone ,she is actually stealing it a little

Nandi: Khosi we must take your phone away ,when do you study?

Khosi:(sulking) I do mah ,I always study when you guyz are talking the matters of this family 

Fakazi:(smiling at her) what matters baby?

Khosi: I don't know but you are always talking about certain matters I don't even know, and it's been a long time now I want my brother Khaya ,also my sister , Kholeka

Nandi drops the spoon on the plate as they all looked at each other 

Nandi: what makes you talk about them my daughter?

Khosi: I was told they left for somewhere ,that Kholeka is visiting our aunt from somewhere else. And that Khaya is on a school trip ,but ..if he is in a school trip then how long does that trip take?I wonder

Nandi looks at Khaya and Buhle again. They are suddenly shaking ,while Fakazi is acting strong

Fakazi: who told you that?

Khosi: Buhle (pointing her)

Nandi:(smiles fakely) yeah my baby she was telling the truth ,They will be back soon don't worry 

They start eating again but still suprised of Khosi's question

Fakazi: nkosikazi ,let's talk aside

Nandi: yes baba (they stood up)

Khosi: see? These are the family matters I was talking about

Nandi:(smiles fakely) Khosi, eat your food my baby and stop asking silly questions and noticing silly things

They leave to their room upstairs 

Nandi closes the door on her way in

Nandi: my husband

Fakazi: Nandi we need to tell her the truth

Nandi: we cannot do that and we will not 

Fakazi: how long are we gonna hide it?our daughter is...between 12 and 13yrs old ,she is now not a baby that can be fooled 

Nandi: (sigh) but how are we going to tell her?this will affect her and will wake up pains that had passed

Fakazi: I don't know ,but we must find a way 

He says scratching his head ,All of a sudden Nandi's phone rings, she put it on loud speaker

Nandi: my son

It's Mbuso 

Mbuso: hey mom how are you 

Nandi: just little things has happened but don't worry we will all be fine ,and you?

Nandi: I am good ,today I was with uZakhona

Nandi: oh how is she?

As they are chatting Fakazi moves to sit on the couch next to the wardrobe

Mbuso: are you with dad next to you or alone?

Nandi: I am with your father ,what is wrong?

Fakazi stood as he came closer to the phone ,he heard his name

Mbuso:(sigh) did you remember that tommorrow is.. Khaya's birthday?

What?they already forgot?they no have to worry if they have to celebrate or start grieving again 

.

Tommorow is also Zakhona's birthday and none of the Gatsheni member knows ,she usually celebrates it with her squad since she no longer had family expect them ,but that was before Mbuso came into her life.

Wait.. Tommorow is Khaya's birthday,..also.. Zakhona's birthday?????
