The gangster girl:

Insert 101:

Zakhona takes Mbuso's plate after he is done eating,and started cleaning the house.

Mbuso just got out of the shower and finds Zakhona packing his clothes

Mbuso: you're already preparing for being uMaGatsheni

Zakhona smiles at him and continued to pack the clothes without saying anything

Mbuso: what's wrong 

Zakhona:(sigh) Mbuso I need you to understand why am I doing this

Mbuso:(clench his jaws) fine, do what you want. You are the man by the way

He says passing her and takes his clothes from the wardrobe then go to the bathroom. Did he just go to dress in a bathroom??

Zakhona: Are we still getting married?!

Mbuso: Zakhona yes

Zakhona: okay ...you will find me downstairs ,I am cooking 

She says getting out of the room. She doesn't know what can she do to make Mbuso understand the reason of her doing all this. She knows that Mbuso is the man and should be the one responsible for their security and safety. But this one needs her , Mbuso cannot fight the battle,it needs her ,and her squad armed.

.

She cooks and calls Mbuso to come eat ,it's 12pm and they're already eating. But she didn't eat with Mbuso she started to go bath and wore her a releasing dress.

She finds Mbuso using the remote and changing the channels as she sits next to him and release a sigh

Zakhona: Mbuso...

Mbuso: mm?

Zakhona: mina I think I am ready for a real wedding. Like...a white wedding

Mbuso: mm

Zakhona: mm? That's all you can say sthandwa Sami

Mbuso: what made you change your mind

Zakhona: the days I spent with you , made me realise that...I cannot spend any minute away from you 

Mbuso:(sigh) me too

He is watching the TV and not looking at Zakhona ,while he is attentively listening to what she is saying 

Zakhona: I promise you, solving the Kennedy battle won't be more than 10days. Just give me 10days ,I beg you 

Mbuso doesn't answer her

Zakhona:(sulks) Please sthandwa Sami. After that I come backs and settle down with you ,then we live a happy life starting our new small family ,

She says brushing her belly 

Zakhona: after that I promise to be a wife who is respectful, listening, and who understands that who is the man who should be making responsibilities like these ones. I will be the best Gatsheni wife, ngidlulele nomawakho

Mbuso chuckles and turns to her making an eye contact

Zakhona: please 

Mbuso:(sigh) fine...

Zakhona gives him a big hug as she pecks his lips

Zakhona: thank you 

Mbuso: what about the ceremony that we have to do in rurals?

Zakhona: relax I won't miss that ,I will make sure I am there. Fighting battles can wait. And...how many days are we gonna be there

Mbuso: I don't know...but for me it's won't be more than a week living there. There's no way

Zakhona: okay then it's all sorted 

Mbuso: Soshada yezwa? Don't worry i made an appointment ,we have at be there at 13pm

Zakhona: I don't even know what to wear

Mbuso placed her head on his chest , brushing her hair

Mbuso: you will wear what you feel comfortable into. 

Zakhona: yoh this big belly is stressing me...it makes me look like a penguin in clothes

Mbuso:(Chuckles) that's definitely true

Zakhona: what?? Mbuso...(she says hitting him in playing and laughs)

Mbuso: ngiyadlala you still look beautiful

Zakhona: vele I will be beautiful forever

Mbuso: mm (smiling) 

Zakhona: I am hungry let me go eat

Mbuso: eat me 

Zakhona: not today..I am hungry for food ngyacela

She says wearing her morning shoes and go to the kitchen.

.

She is dishing up as Mbuso comes to the kitchen. And holds Zakhona's waist from the back

Zakhona: I am still dishing bakithi I am so hungry 

Mbuso: I am also hungry 

Zakhona: you did eat food ,I dished up for you

Mbuso: I am hungry for you 

Zakhona turns to him 

Zakhona: mina I am hungry for food for now...not you 

She says giving him a peck on the lips then turns back taking her plate leaving the kitchen.

.

.

She didn't even know what can she wear for signing the marriage papers. While Mbuso is in his pants and white shirt untucked...he is also not wearing like he is going to an important ceremony ,but looks breathtaking as always.

Zakhona keeps fitting the clothes with eyes..looking at herself in the mirror and confused while stressed on the other side

Zakhona: yoh mina I don't know now...

Mbuso: hawu makaOwethu, even the new clothes you brought don't fit you?

Zakhona: they do ,I am just not sure if I will look good or what 

Mbuso: you always look beautiful nje 

He says coming to the mirror and wraps his hands around her

Mbuso: wear what makes you feel comfortable and beautiful. I will accept it the way it is.

Zakhona: you will accept it the way it is?

Mbuso nods ,they are looking at each other from the mirror

Mbuso: or wear a dress

Zakhona: haa so I can look like some kind of a...fool I don't know about

Mbuso: who said you will look like a fool. Wear anything mfeth so we can leave 

He says with a little bit changed face all of a sudden and go to sit on the bed taking out his phone and opens it

Zakhona: mfeth?
