CHAPTER 3

EMIHLE FEZI
.
I got to my room and placed my bag on the bed. I took off my shoes and just then... The door opens. She frowns when she sees me

“Wetsang mo ?!! Ke kamore yaka & ke mpeto waka o!!! (What are you doing here? This is my room and that is my bed)”

Emihle : ayy ayy ayy!!! Uyarasa wena (you're making noise)

“what?!!”

Emihle : “what” my ass. Can't you see you're making noise?

“i asked you a question”

Emihle : angikuzwanga ke mina(I didn't hear you)

“this is my room and that is my bed”
Emihle : bheka Lana wena Slenda...

“Keletso!! My name is Keletso”

Emihle : I don't care who you are. I didn't find you in here when I got here. So you better get your shit together coz I found this bed without your name or anything that belongs to you. Abd this is also my ‘room’ which makes it ‘our’ room

I said looking her straight in her eyes.

Keletso : yerr!! Bomnyamane batshwenya

I got closer to her. I may not know her language but this time around I definitely heard her and that's what made me go to her and give her one hell of a slap.

Emihle : ungalinge ungijwayele kabi wena. Angizwani namasimba mina and if you want us to have peace in this room.. you better mind your own business for the sake of peace. Angeke ngijwayelwe ngushorti mina. Ungangisanganisi futhi.
Keletso : I... I heard you

I walked back to my bed and plugged in my headsets and listened to music. I've been bullied enough. Since primary until in grade 10 because of my skin color but as time goes by  I had a fight with my bully and I won the fight obviously. And that made them fear me. I won't let anyone get to me ever again. I'm the black diamond. One of a kind. I'm human too and I should be treated like one. I won't let anyone get to me ever again. So this Keletso better mind her own business before I kill her ass while I just got here. I won't let her get into me.

I looked at her and she's doing her bed. Good girl,I won't argue with you vele. I got here first and you didn't mark anything here. She comes to me and stands in front of me,I took off my headsets

Keletso : I am sorry
Emihle : mhh
Keletso : I just want peace between us. And I'm sorry that I disrespected you about your looks and skin color. I'm really sorry
Emihle : fine,for the sake of peace. I'll forgive you. And I'm sorry for slapping you
Keletso : it's okay,I deserved it. Can we go buy groceries?
Emihle : you can go
Keletso : oh... Uhm... Can we combine our groceries? And cook for each other? We'll take turns
Emihle : okay. I'll buy mine on Saturday coz I don't have money at the moment. I have a box of noodles only.
Keletso : okay,I'll go buy my box too.
Emihle : not it's fine we can share them
Keletso : okay,so... We're cool right?
Emihle : yeah sure
Keletso : thanks
Emihle : you know what? Some fresh air wouldn't hurt. Are you still going to the mall?
Keletso: : yeah let's go!

She says smiling and I wore my shoes then we left. We did shopping,for groceries of course. We made our way back and a car stopped next to us. A window rolled down and his face showed up.

Milo : momma

I smiled a little

Milo : lemme drop you off.
Keletso : we don't know you
Milo : speak for yourself. So,are you coming in?
Keletso : I'd rather walk
Milo : momma? Are you coming in?
Emihle : I don't know you that well Milo,we met yesterday and if your friends are in there then I'm not coming.

He looks at the backseat then comes out. He takes one plastic from me and holds it for me,his other hand goes to my waist.

Milo : how are you feeling momma?

I smiled,there's just something about the way he says it.

Emihle : I'm okay Milo. How are you?
Milo : I'm good. So,since we've met again... Can I take you out for a drink?
Emihle : I'm busy today,when I get to res I'll get busy with my school work.
Milo : doesn't have to be today
Emihle : I doubt that we'll meet again.
Milo : okay. I get you momma. Even though I'd like to chat and get to know you better but I can't force you out on a date. We're here already. Here's your plastic bag. Have a great evening momma
Emihle : you too Milo

I said smiling at him and he shows me a little smiles. He's just so damn cute. I went to my room.

Keletso : is he your boyfriend?
Emihle : no. 
Keletso : he's handsome.
Emihle : I know
Keletso : do you mind giving me his tens or his social names?
Emihle : I don't know any of those. Like I said we met yesterday.
Keletso : okay. He's charmed me. I can't get him out of my mind. I'm in love
Emihle : you just met him
Keletso : no,it's been a while since I knew him. Just that I hardly see him. I even steal pictures whenever I see him,look ..

She takes out her phone and shows me his pictures. Okay... Weird!

She's stalking Milo? Okay maybe not but is she obsessed with him? Yeah he is handsome but why don't you just approach the guy when you're interested? Or maybe she has that mentality yokuthi only boys should confess their love to girls? Let me let Keletso be. I'm not getting involved in any of this.

My phone rings and my heart melts when I see that it's my mother. I answered her call

Emihle : ndlovukazi Yami (my queen)
Lindiwe : baby,are you okay?
Emihle : I'm good and you?
Lindiwe : I'm not good, you didn't tell me when you got there. I was so worried about you
Emihle : I'm so sorry mom. I slept when I got here and woke up today and I had to run to class
Lindiwe : okay,I understand. Your dad called me
Emihle : really? Why?
Lindiwe : he wants you to live with him. He actually said you'll live with him and his kids and wife because he wants all his kids under one roof
Emihle : after 20 years of not being in my life he thinks he can be in control of it? Uyahlanya loya lungu
Lindiwe : he'll talk to you about it. Don't tell him I told you this because he'll see that I informed you and hate me even more
Emihle : it's okay mom. Don't worry,I won't tell him. And what did you say about all that?
Lindiwe : I told him to leave it all in your hands because you're old enough to make decisions for yourself but your dad being his hard-headed self,he said he's already made his decision of you living with him
Emihle : well... We'll see about that.
Lindiwe : okay. I just wanted to check if you're okay
Emihle : thank you for the call mama,I really appreciate it
Lindiwe : uziphathe kahle mtanam
Emihle : ngyabonga mama
Lindiwe : and you better prevent. We might not know what tomorrow holds

I laughed at that.

Emihle : mom come on. You know I don't do those things.
Lindiwe : I wouldn't Know. My cake!! Baby I have to go check on my cake. I made your favorite.
Emihle : chocolate cake. I'm craving for it
Lindiwe : I hope you didn't sleep with anyone before coming there. That craving of yours...
Emihle : haibo mama! I'm not pregnant.

Keletso chokes on her saliva,suits her very well.

Lindiwe : okay,let me choose to believe you. Goodbye baby
Emihle : bye mama,I love you
Lindiwe : I love you too my baby

I dropped the call and looked at Keletso who avoids looking at me,I shake my head in disapproval and went to the bathroom to release myself. I get busy with my phone while at it. A message comes in my phone and It shows money coming in my bank account. R3500 has been transferred to my account. Reference : SPOIL YOURSELF MOMMA

Milo? How did he even know my bank details? Weird. I add a pattern to my phone. I don't trust Keletso. Not even a bit. I wipe my self and flush then went to get my toiletry bag leaving my phone on my bed then went to take a shower. I wore my pyjamas after that then went make noodles for myself and watched a movie from my phone.

Keletso : I'll be back
Emihle : boyfriend?
Keletso : no! Just a friend.
Emihle : okay. Take your key with you
Keletso : okay sure

She takes her keys and cellphone from the bed then leaves. She locks the door from the outside. I wash my bowl after eating and did my school work before heading to bed.

KELETSO RADEDE
.
Roman : I heard your roommate is hot blackie. Maybe we should host a party and you should invite her
Keletso : why?
Roman : I wanna see her and who knows? Maybe I might tap that ass
Keletso : she's not a party person
Roman : I'm sure you can convince her.
Keletso : I'll try. Don't do something big Roman. Just something small for you and your friends. I'll come with her
Roman : no problem. Make sure she wears something that is easy to be taken off, something like a dress of mini skirt
Keletso : okay sure. And then? What about me?
Roman : your money will be I'm your account the moment I see her stepping through that door
Keletso : how much are we talking about now?
Roman : let's say... R10 000.
Keletso : deal

He kisses me and slides it in. For sure round two will take longer as usual. I love rough sex that can last for a while. And Roman never disappoints.
