Insert 87:

They were now pouring drinks while Zakhona wasn't doing anything

Fakazi: you can also pour drink for yourself again

Zakhona takes a cup and a drink and tries to pour it .

Her hand start shaking and Fakazi was the one to notice it as he shaked Mbuso a little to help her

Mbuso: I will do it for you 

He says taking the cup and drink from her

She was so embarrassed ,why was her hand shaked infront of them 

Her phone rings 

Zakhona: can I ...excuse you guyz I have to answer this 

Nandi: guyz?

Zakhona: no I meant ..can I excuse you Bantu abadala 

She says answering the call aside ,it's her coach ,Junior

Zakhona: uhuh?

Junior: I told you ,you have a match today on 20:00pm. And you are not going to skip it ,we want you here tonight 

Zakhona: what? Coach I told you I am pregnant and i cannot do this 

Junior: You have been practising for a whole week and I have been coaching you ,you will do this cause you can.

Zakhona: I..

Junior: 10k will be your price when you win this match .

Zakhona: I have all the money I need ,I don't need your money. I am busy here please lets just not talk about this

Junior: I expect you here on 20oclock

He dropped the call before she even say anything back.

Zakhona releases a big sigh as she looked at the time in the phone.

And went back to them 

Zakhona: I need to leave 

Fakazi: we were already done, let's leave all together

They said as they started packing. Zakhona wasn't there when they were saying their speeches to Khaya.

They all went to Mbuso's car and now it was Zakhona and him left packing the left things 

Zakhona: Mbuso why are you so moody today?

Mbuso: thank you for today ,we appreciate it 

He says trying to leave and Zakhona grabs his hand

Zakhona: Mbuso you are not leaving without telling me what wrong did I do 

Mbuso:(sigh) are you gonna let go of my hand so I can go or what?

Zakhona: nxay futsek man how many times should I beg you , Mbuso since you came to my house you have been moody 

Mbuso scratches his head and release a big sigh as he put down the plastic

Mbuso: if insulting me is what you wanna do next to my brother's grave ,it's fine. Zakhona this is the last time I hear you saying "futsek" to me or any other word that insults me ,angisuye umngani wakho 

He says taking back the plastic and left .

Zakhona: haibo nangu uMbuso?

She says to herself

.

.

.

Everything went well , Mbuso dropped his family off and went to his house. He saw Zakhona's purse in his car ,stares at it and take it with him .

When he got into his house he put it on the table and take out a cold beer in his fridge as he sat on the couch an started drinking it 

He is stressed ,all the "Khaya situation" is stressing him ,he feels like he is selfish 

He regrets his mistakes and can't get over them. Still not sure if he is right by dating the killer of his young brother.

He took the purse on the table and opens it ,there's money ,but when he continued checking it. He saw a cigarette

Mbuso:(sigh) mxm

He says shaking his head and put it back on the table 

.

.

.

Zakhona takes her boxing suit and punching gloves ,she is mad at Mbuso. Uyadakwa Kant yini uMbuso?He thinks he can expect her to accept that she is the one who is wrong while she doesn't even know what she did 

She is going to the match now ,she doesn't care about anything all she has is fustration of what Mbuso is doing to her
