“HIS BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF LOVE”
CHAPTER : 06 .

I hang up the phone , I can't believe we talked for almost an hour , I really love his voice , it's so natural . I don't know .. do I even feel something for this guy ?

“ohh i think our mommy is in love !” Kagoentle exclaims causing Ontshiametse to run down the stairs in a hurry .

“mom is in love ?” she asks widening her eyes.
“no , there's nothing like that . Your brother is crazy” i say standing up .
“you were smiling the entire time you were talking to him !” he says laughing and I roll my eyes .
“i don't know what you're talking about , really .”
“mother , are you inlove with someone ? Who is he ?” Ontshiametse says .
“Its Buti Lwandile .” Kagoentle says before I could even answer .
“no its not , Kagoentle please stop harassing me”
“Buti Lwandile ? The singer from church ? oh mother , is it love at first sight ?” I shake my head , they're not gonna let me go .
“and i think that's my cue to go upstairs” they begin laughing .
“it wouldn't be such a bad thing if you found a man you know , especially a man who fears God and attends church” I sigh .
“you both are crazy , literally .” I run upstairs because they're making me feel uncomfortable , why would they even think that Lwandile and I love each other ? I just met him yesterday and I just hired him , he's my employee and I'm his employee . Nothing can happen between us .

I take off my clothes and put on my gym clothes , time to hit the gym now . I do have a gym in my house but I always prefer to go to a gym outside . I don't know why ... I grab my bottle of water and run downstairs .

“you're going to the gym ?” Ontshiametse asks .
“yeah , I'll be back by 18h00pm . Please order something for yourself . ”
“okay ma'am” Kago says with a smirk on his face , this boy ..

I walk out of the house and begin jogging down the streets , the gym is like 10 minutes away from my house so I always walk whenever I want to go there , if I'm not walking , I'm jogging . I have to keep this body in shape .. I don't want to be an unequal woman please , that ain't nice .

I reach the gym and walk in ..

“oh i thought you weren't coming .” she says running to me as we share a hug .
“you're so sweaty , oh my goshh .” I say .
“well .. never mind ” she responds .
“how are you ?” I ask .

She sighs ..

“a bit tough but I'm gonna be fine” my best friend is currently going through a divorce , her and the ex were married for 4 years straight and the love went "puuuuf" , just like that ! Oratile is a great woman , I don't know why the ex didn't want her anymore .
“Bruce is a fool now isn't he ?” i say .
“the biggest one , come lift some weights up ”

We walk over to the chairs and sit down , I take the weights .

“what's the latest ?” she asks and I shrug .
“you know there's nothing interesting about my life ” she stares at me , she normally stares at me if she feels like I'm lying .
“what ?” I say laughing .
“i don't know that smile , or that blush .” she says .
“what smile ? what blush ? Stop now ..”
“who is the guy that's giving you orgasms ?” she asks and I roll my eyes .
“the dildo” she laughs .
“you're funny .” she says still laughing .
“no man is giving me orgasms , but ..”
“i knew there was a but somewhere !” I sigh .
“there's this guy ..” I heave a sigh once more .
“i saw him yesterday at church , he's the new singer and pianist . ” she chuckles and smiles .
“ohh so we have a new singer in the family ?”
“hold on .. today , he came for an interview and i hired him , as an accountant .”

She raises her eyebrow .

“you hired him ?” I nod .
“if you hired him then that means he's ... wait is he poor ?”
“no he's not poor Oratile , he's less privileged .”
“that sounds like being poor to me .”
“its not , stop .”
“okay , I'm sorry , what were you saying ?”
“he's such a good looking man , fit as hell .. his face is unmatched ...” I say thinking of him , this man .
“hmm ??”
“and he's 29 years old .”
“wait so you're older than him ?”
“a year older than him , i can't explain to you what i feel for this man . I don't know what the feeling is ..” I say , I'm being honest with myself at this point .
“are you dumb ?”

I glance at her and roll my eyes .

“I'm not dumb ”
“so .. why are you acting as if you're not inlove with him ?”
“I'm confused .” I say .
“you love him ! there's no other way to sugarcoat that , does he know about Kago and barbie girl ?” I nod .
“he met them too .” I respond .
“so what's stopping you from loving this man ?”

I sigh and stand up , I grab the rope and start skipping .

“first of all , I'm older than him . Secondly , I'm now his boss . Thirdly , do i really want to be with a man that's below my standards ??”
“does all of that matter when you love him ?” I shrug .
“my dad won't let me be in a relationship with a man that still lives with his mother . He won't be able to provide for me .” I say .
“so wena you want a rich man who spends millions on you ?” she asks .
“uhm .. kinda .”
“where are you gonna find him ? because every man you meet has a problem with your kids ?”
“how do i know if Lwandile doesn't have a problem with my babies ?”
“you won't know unless you create some type of bond with him .”

I sigh ..

“did i really have to be his boss ?” i say biting my lower lip .
“hehe! Its still gonna get fun in the office sana yoh !” she says clapping her hands .
“imagine me driving to Soweto for a man , he doesn't even have a car .. I'm not trying to donwgrade him but .. yoh”
“you have standards ?” she asks .
“he's good looking yena shame , he has beautiful eyes , i love his hair cut , i love how he's built .. i love the abs and muscles . He has great legs and the dick print as well but ... baby where is the money ?”
“he has the qualities but the moola is invisible .” she says and I nod .
“yep ..”
“you can just pay him double his salary so he gets rich faster. ”
“you know I don't work like that ”
“how much does an accountant earn monthly ?” she asks .
“well , in my company . The accountant earns R24K”
“you see , its a great start . He's gonna be a millionaire in no time , the question now is .. do you love him now or do you want to love him when he's rich which is probably like in 10 years ..”
“you're not funny .”

I say walking to the running machine and stepping on it .

“i think i have some sort of feelings for him but I'm not gonna let them get in the way of working . Work comes first , i wanna take my children to Dubai this December ” I say .
“love is love , you're gonna end up smashing in the office , watch the space .” I roll my eyes , what the fuck is she uttering
