It's 14:30pm.. Mbuso on his way to his house
His phone rang ,as he answered ,it's a female
Caller: hey handsome
Mbuso: (sigh)
As he dropped the call without saying anything back ,cause he knows that it's one of his "old" chicks ,asking for meetups
When he was scrolling a little on his phone pictures,he met Khaya's picture. his mind came back .."yesterday was also Khaya's birthday, not only Zakhona's"
He drives his car fast ,to the stores to buy something to eat for his birthday celebration ,they planned to go to his grave and be with him on his special day ,but unfortunately it didn't happen as they planned.
He brought food to eat and drinks,it's not too much but enough for Khaya to be happy and enjoy his belated birthday
When he parked outside his home , dissappointment was all over his face when he got into the house with the plastics. They are all sitting on the couches quietly and Khosi is not here .
Mbuso:(with a whisper) mah? Baba?...(sigh) Buhle?
They all look at him
Nandi: today was the day you really disappointed me my son. I have never been disappointed like this ,it's the first time
Mbuso's eyes were forming tears but he tried all his best for them not to fall as he was putting his hands in pockets and plastics lying on the floor
Buhle: I knew that Zakhona was always special more than us ,
Mbuso: Buhle I don't want us to keep fighting I know I was wrong and I am so...
Buhle: yes you was wrong ,totally wrong. Mbuso ,Khaya is your brother ,your late brother. I know you had to show that you appreciate Zakhona but not like this. You spent your whole day with her while Khaya is in his grave and lonely ,this was the the only time we would gain his forgiveness Mbuso
Tears fell from Buhle's eyes
Mbuso: I am sorry ,i forgot (looking down in dissappointment)
Fakazi: you forgot ,wow?
