I NEVER CHOSE THIS
Introduction
Jasmine
Sister J, there's someone looking for u.(that's my little brother Sizwe calling me). l drag myself to the doorstep and as soon as l see who it is my jaw drops.
Sister J are you okay?
Why does it look like you have just seen a ghost? Sizwe asks
No uhmmm l think l need to lay down a bit Sizwe cause l've had a long day, l say trying to avoid this man's gaze.
As soon as l attempt to go back to my room, the man grabs my hand and all of a sudden my heart starts racing and before l knew it, it was lights out for .
never chose this*

Sizwe
Seeing my sister in this condition frightens me but thank God this man was here to help because if it wasn't for him l don't know what l could have done.
*Sigh*
Thanks man for helping me out .I am surprised why sister J just collapsed after seeing u.
Nathi
*Chuckles* It's a pleasure man. I guess she mistook me for someone else. I will be available whenever u need help and here is my number, l say taking out a notepad and a pen from my bag and writing down my numbers.
Please, don't hesitate to call me at any given time and make sure to call me once your sister wakes up.
I walk towards the door but as soon as l intend to open it l hear some sobs and l turn back and right infront of me is the girl l have been searching for.
JASMINE
Sizwe what is this man still doing here, my voice cracks and l am already getting flashbacks of that night when my friend sold me to this guy so that her needs can be sorted.
November 09th, it was on that day when this man took my innocence. I was still young and pure when this man took my innocence and till this day l've never told anyone about what happened. What is he doing here after so many years. 12 years have passed but he decides to show up now.
Jasmine( Sizwe calls out shifting my mind from the thoughts l'm having driving me back to reality)
Huhhh?
What's wrong with u?
Sizweeeee are u really asking what's wrong with me?
Do u even know what this man did to me?
I cry my lungs out.
I intend to stand but l can feel my legs going weak and the more l try to stand, the weaker l become.
Sizwe
Sister J what do u mean?
I don't understand what Jasmine means right now and l am confused.
I walk towards the man standing right infront of us and l grab him by the collar
U scoundrel. What did u do to my sister?
I can already feel my body realising a lot of heat and l am boiling..
I can explain, let go of my collar first (says Nathi)
U rather explain before l do something l will regret later.
Nathi
At this moment, l wish the ground could open up and swallow me.
12 years have passed and l thought maybe she has forgotten but clearly l was lying to myself.
This means that what happened on that day left a permanent scar in her that will never be erased.
I clear my voice as l begin to explain.
It was on 09 November 2013 when l saw your sister at the club. She was hanging around with her friends but among the group she was hanging out with, she was hottest.
I had just landed in town from London and l wanted to be laid and l was craving for someone beautiful and as soon as l saw your sister, that's when l knew that she was the perfect one.
I approached her but she did not pay any attention to me and l was not willing to accept any of that as l wanted to get laid on that night.
Can l have a glass of water l say already feeling a cold shiver running down my spine.
Jasmine
Listening to the secrete that l have been hiding from everyone all these years unfolding right infront of me breaks my heart especially considering the fact that my dear brother is present.
Sizwe can we let this go please( l say begging my little brother and it seems like my effort is going down the drain) .He is not having it rather he wants to hear the full story.
Sizwe
Shusshhhhh sister J.
No single drop of water coming from this household will be given to u. I want the whole truth.
