My Rapist My Lover 15

Monde moved out of the apartment as much as he was against this breakup thing but he had no choice I was tired of loving him and him being next to me I was losing my mind. It's a good thing I was going home soon I needed the sanity I hated that this breakup affected me so much. Experts say love is not supposed to hurt the moment it starts hurting is if you are in love with the wrong person I guessed that was true because Monde was never mine from the word go we were never meant for each other. He would call every now and then but l never picked up his calls. It's been a week and it gets harder with every passing minute.

I signed up for a gym it was time I did things I had been putting on hold this whole time, losing weight had been my priority that I abandoned along the way. I decided to start with the after coming back home because I was leaving in a week's time.

This one day I was at work when I got a call from Simphiwe she was screaming I really couldn't make out what she was saying but I could tell that something good happened.

"I said yes, I said yes oh my God I'm so happy" she ranted on the phone.

"Yes, to what babes khuluma I can't hear you" I asked laughing

"UMusa ungicelile ukuthi ngimshade and I said yes" she said sounding elated.

"About time oh wooow I'm so happy for you" I was happy for her she deserved it, she was a good person you know and she's been waiting.

You know I waited for this I have been waiting" yeah right.

"You deserve it babes you do this whole time you thought he was cheating on you kanti he's been planning this" it was sweet really or maybe he was cheating you never know with these men and I really don't trust men anymore.

"Listen babes I am coming to your place after work to plan a party to tell everyone"

"Alright see you later"

If there was one person who deserved what was happening in her life was Simphiwe, she deserved it all she had persevered I would never date someone that long who doesn't know what he wants. This made me wonder about my love life and my future in general what it had in store for me it's funny how life can just change just like that I mean one minute I was happy I had a man I thought I would spend the rest of my life with and now here I was miserable and lonely. It is unpredictable but if God really planned my life to be this hectic then he was not the good guy everyone raved about.

I found Simphiwe already parked outside when I got home thinking about it I needed to get a license this thing of taking taxis was not fun at all not that I could afford a car but for future references.

"Babes" I said running to hug her she was so glowing even I guessed two minutes of being engaged does that to you. I prepared a quick meal while we chatted, she was busy telling me about how he proposed.

So, you know we spent this past weekend in Magaliesburg well I thought it was for bonding and all you know just spend some quality time together" she said beaming with you.

"Kanti a guy had other plans on his sleeves you know Minenhle he gave it to me so good, I can still feel it in my knees"

"Don't talk about that I am on starvation okay" I chimmed in laughing.

"I'm sorry babes"

"So how did he pop the question?" I asked getting more interested.

"He did it the old school way a waiter brought a ring in a plate a plate was covered in those silver things they use to cover up plates" she said laughing. Well not so romantic but wow.

"I am really happy for you" I got up to give her a hug again.

So, about the party" I said dishing out the Italian pasta I had made. We both filled our

glasses with winery as she told me about this intimate party she was having. She was planning on having it on the weekend before everyone went home for Easter if it didn't stand in the way of me going home then I didn't mind at all.

"It's really over between you and Monde?" she asked while wiping a plate I had just washed.

"It is hey" this saddened me as a result I didn't like talking about it.

"I should hook you up with my friend" I gave her a stare.

"Too soon?" she shrugged

"Yeah too soon".
