“HIS BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF ART”

CHAPTER : 47 . 

LWANDILE .

I know I can't take back whatever happened a month back but as of this moment , I'm grateful to God that Rori is speaking to me and she's laughing . Nothing matters to me more than her happiness to be quite honest . Even if we don't get back together , I just want her to be okay and move past everything that happened . 

We're back at home right now , she's actually serious about this boiled corn and chocolate combo , she's boiling the corn right now and she's melting the chocolate . That's not all , she's dipping the potato chips in the avocado that actually has sugar . God please help me understand, how ?? 

“mommy you cannot be serious right now .” she glances at us and shrugs . 

“what do you want me to do ? Go hungry ?” she asks dipping the chip in the avocado and throwing it in her mouth . 

“dad cooked food , proper food .” Ontshiametse says .

“I'm not craving for any creamy pasta and cheese right now . I'll have this for now ..” she says . I shake my head , something is surely wrong here . Don't you think ? 

“ohh this is so nice !” she says humming and dancing . I chuckle , she's so adorable . Once her corn boils she takes out 4 corns and places on a plate . She pours salt over the corns and pours chocolate all over . 

“okay okay , if i don't throw up then I'm a very strong human being !” Kagoentle says running out . She grabs one corn and takes a very huge bite of it . 

“mommy .. ah come on .” Ontshiametse says . 

“if you don't want to watch me eat then you're free to go watch tv or something .” she says still eating . 

“dad , maybe she'll stop once you talk to her .” she says walking out . I glance back at her ..

“why are you eating this much ? and why do you eat weird combinations only ?” I say . 

“i don't know , I've been craving for this . Now I'm eating , there's no problem with that . I'm eating this much because i haven't been eating well for the past few weeks so I'm covering up for all of that .” she says , she might be right yeah ?

KGOTHATSO . 

“so you're gonna do a reading on her ?” I nod lightly .

“something like that , she has went through some stuff in her life and she's not able to confront some of those things .” I say . 

“hmm , and you met her randomly .” he says , I place my coffee on the table . 

“she's quite a strong human being , the man she was with has physically assulted her but he turns out to be the only man that she can rely on .” I say . 

“how weird is life though ?” he says and I sigh.  

“there's no excuse to cover up what he did but .. she was also wrong at a point . I'm not condoning his behaviour though .” I say . 

“what's her name konje ?” 

“Rorisang , not your normal south african girl like me , that one is colored .” I say . 

“hmm ? alright .”

“because her mother has a message for her , i think that's gonna be what she has been expecting after 4 years of her mother's burial .” he nods , I glance at my son . Phiwo , he's busy dancing around . Tell me why he looks so adorable . I had triplets after I lost my daughter , Sphiwosihle . It was traumatic but I expected that to happen since well ... I get visions and stuff . I got blessed and now .. I have three triplets . They're turning 3 soon , I wouldn't really trade them for anything . 

Anyway , we're not there . Me meeting Rorisang is just because I want to pass on a message to her from her mother . 

“she's pregnant as well .” I say . 

“she is ?” I nod . 

“just over a month , i think .” he makes a face . 

“and then wena ?”

“a child before marriage ?” he says , oh this husband of mine .

“don't judge , she has 2 kids already and the guy has 1 .” he shrugs . 

“i think they should get marriage before even having a child .” I shake my head . 

“the damage is already done Mandla , there's nothing they can do now except let Rorisang experince a healthy and beautiful pregnancy .”

She's older than me , I think so . She's such a beautiful woman . He is lucky to still have her , he made her go through pain and he must the one to relieve that pain ..
