Chapter 4

No one prepared me for this day,it's the day of the burial the week hasn't been easy my dad demanding documents cause he wants to claim from his life cover, I had to find all the documents from him cause what do you mean my mom was on his life cover policy so I took all the documents to my mother's friend for safety.

"I can hear pastor preaching and sobs, but my mind is running it's own marathon she knew this will happen that's why she gave me the documents so I can keep them"

"Sesi MC is calling you to come say your goodbyes"

"Since when I'm sesi to her"- but I don't say that to her face

"My mother was a strong no no no my mother is a strong woman......" I couldn't finish my send off

"I wake up it's dark outside and I'm in my bed wearing black dress ,what happened I remember being inside the tent Ohhhh ""I start crying

Dad"why are you crying no after a funeral,you could have done that the whole week or during your mother's send off,stop what you're doing, tomorrow go buy groceries cause we have nothing in this house"

"You hate me this much that you couldn't wake me to see my mom's coffin going down"

"Stop being a baby, you're old and a working woman,your mother was old and useless" he says

" Get out of my room I'm still grieving "

I don't know when I dosed off ,when I open my eyes it's morning not even 6, I get off the bed and do my hygiene process I go to grab some fruits in the kitchen then remember we have nothing, my dad find me still checking the fridge

"I'm glad to see you up early for shopping,let me go take my car keys to accompany you "

After he was out of my sight I run out of the house to catch a taxi I'm going to the cemetery to talk to my mom since I couldn't yesterday, when I get there it's 7

"Mom I really cannot believe this is going to be like going forward,not seeing and hearing your voice when I wake up it's going to be one of the difficult things, I hope you will look up for me where you are and give me your full blessings to move out of the house when I'm done with cleansing I love and will always love you "

I feel some kind of relief after the talk ,I called my boyfriend to come fetch me I'm sure he's awake now , he gets here driving like his in fast and furious

"Do you have a death wish"

" I came as soon as you called me I didn't even take a bath,I missed you I can't kiss you I haven't brushed my teeth "

" What"that's me laughing while getting inside the car, I can't believe this man right now,but I'm happy cause his distracting me

"Bbe I missed you, how are you holding up "

" I can't believe she's no longer here to guide and cheer me up,and left me with strangers"

"You will be fine you're stronger than you think"

" Thanks bbe enough about me, I smell some armpits I think some didn't bath "

" You wish I did , you don't mind coming with me to my place I wanna take a shower"

"No plus I'm hungry "

" I'll order something when we get to my place "

It's my first time coming to his place, his home is Devine it's in an estate I wonder what he does for a living cause outside and inside of this house is breathtaking

" Earth to Londi ,I'm going to shower feel at home" he kissed me before going upstairs I guess his room is there

I checked out the kitchen and went straight to the fridge ohh why is there brutal fruit and wine here

I kept my cool and took a brutal and went to sit down while scrolling on TV I put channel 0 cause there's nothing to watch

"I see you feel comfortable,you're even drinking my cider"

"Stop lying,so you have a girlfriend or wife so much cider and wine in your fridge"

" I see you're a jealous type, let me go take the food the delivery guy is outside"

"So much food"

" I didn't know what you'd like and how hungry you are"

" So you think I eat this much pizza,ribs,chips, burger, salad and dessert"

"I like to feed my woman"

"So you want me to get fat, but don't worry cause I like junk food"

" Let me go take an ice bucket and get the beers from the fridge so we can go chill by the pool"

" So you really drink cider, or you are covering up your lie"

"Just say you don't trust me, I like a straight talker"

"Let's eat the food is getting cold"

After eating we spent the day listen to music, talking getting to know each other and drinking he even order another 48 of ciders I thought he wouldn't keep up but it seems he was telling the truth about him drinking ciders.

I excused myself to go to the restroom, I had many missed calls from my dad so I called him back -calling

" Do you see the time Londiwe you ou ran away then you don't come back"

"I'm with a friend dad, I'll come as soon as I drop this call"

" I'm looking at empty fridge uthi sidleni ,you are eating the money with your friends agisho"

"No I'm not "

"Hlala lapho ungabuyi cause I'm not opening my door for you "

After the phone call I didn't stress myself

"Bbe are e you fine, or you lost your way to the restroom "

" No I was talking to my dad,athi I should not bother coming back he won't open for me "

"Don't worry you'll spend the night with your man I'll keep you warm and safe"

" Oh we'll see about warm"

We took the party indoors It was starting to be dark outside, we are so drunk cause one moment are in the sitting room drinking and dancing,next he's carrying me in his arms up to his room then kissing and boom we pass out.
