I can't do it anymore with the sun I'm really burning. I hate being here and in this situation after this drama here I'm done with my family I don't want to see them anymore especially Nkosenhle I hate him more than anything. I wiped my tear that was coming out, I'm too strong I will manage.
"Are you okay?'' It was a girl next to me I nodded.
It was time for the Prince to choose I'm so nervous I don't want him.
I just looked down and did a little silent prayer I felt something on my head and people started ululating, I was shocked because the noise was too much I raise my head He was in front of me I had to give him my bracelet because he gave me something that belongs to him. He choose me?
"Congratulations baby girl" it was that girl who was next to me I faked a smile
Me:"Thank you" I don't wanna lie Qhawe is handsome and respectable but I don't see myself getting along with him. He helped me to stand up. His eyes are focused on my pointy boobs I'm really not comfortable. I could see his 2 wives from a distance, they were sitting next to him I wonder how do they feel about this.
Mom was very happy even my father and the King(Qhawe's father)
The day went by I didn't say anything to Qhawe I hate him too. later on I went home with my brothers. I can't believe that they're planning on paying lobola next week Friday then Saturday it's our traditional wedding. Why are they rushing things? It's because of money? I have lot of questions in my mind. I got out in the car I just went to bathroom I took a long bath I'm thinking about this I always knew that I'm a princess but being forced to be someone's third wife wasn't on my bucket list. I wore my pyjamas and went to bed my phone rang it's Noma.
Her:"Congratulations babes yoh I'm happy for you" she's making noise
Me:"Really?"
Her:"Bi*ch you got yourself a hot man you should be happy"
Me:"He's not my man, Qhawe got his wives and secondly I didn't like his attitude towards Me I smell lot of trouble"
Noma:"You will cross the bridge when you get to it Haww, stop doing that"
Me:"You don't know how I feel about this I was forced Noma! And I'm supposed to be happy? I don't want to marry him"
Her:"I'm sorry babe I didn't know. What happened actually?"
Me:"It's a long story I will tell you tomorrow and please we're leaving at 11am don't be late"
Her:"Okay love Goodnight stop stressing"
Me:"Goodnight. I will"
She hanged up
I dozed off.
I'm done packing my bags. I found them eating breakfast it's nice they're enjoying life.
I sat down i didn't greet them
Mom:"Lindo where's your respect?"
Me:"I'm leaving I will come back on Thursday"
Nkosenhle:"Yooh this child!" He buried his face with his hands" I stood
Me:"Actually I'm leaving right now as for you Nkosenhle please don't ever talk to me I'm no longer your blood, you're absolutely nothing to me as from the day you laid your hands on me. Mom and Dad I don't have anything to say to you but I will be out of your house after the lobola negotiations I think I will be better off without y'all. I've lived my life with fear because of everyone who's in this room. Mbongeni you're also like them" I didn't even notice that I'm crying I wiped my tears I took my car keys on the table and my bags.
Me:"Goodbye" it's unlike them to keep quiet Nkosenhle was hurt I don't care.
Mom:"Let me take you out"
Me:"There's no need for that mother"
Me:"Manzini" I said that to my father and left I picked up Noma. We drove to Joburg
After taking a bath i got in bed. My phone rang it's Unknown
"Hello?"
Unknown:"It's Qhawe please save my numbers" He's not greeting me
Me:"Okay"
Him:"You went to Joburg without telling me?"
Me:"Do I report to you? I'm not your wife"
He kept quiet for a while
Him:"Don't ever disrespect me like that please" he's shouting and I don't care
I heard a voice of a woman
"Baba here is your food" it was the back round voice
Him:"Thank you" I chuckled
Me:"Oh yeah that's your wife not me Qhawe"
Him:"You're stubborn Lindo!!! I don't know why did I call you nxn" he hanged up yooh another problem
I laughed a little my life is a movie. I logged in to my social media platforms the whole thing is all over the news I switched off my phone before i receive unnecessary calls from people I don't know.
I haven't seen Lilly for a while.
I dozed off.
Yeah I'm always late that's me, I switched on my phone i got lot of missed calls from my family and unknown numbers. I wore a formal dress and heels I drove to work I look good.
There's too much work. Later on I drove to my apartment I didn't buy grocery I ordered pizza. I decided to call Qhawe it was answered by a woman
Her:"Lindo"
Me:"Yes"
Her:"My husband is still taking a bath"
Me:"Our husband" she laughed I'm always looking for problems
Her:"You're really testing my patience"
"Who are you talking to?"
Her:" Your Jezabel" I wish I could slap her right now I guess she gave her husband the phone
Him:"W...." I hanged up before he could talk. He called again I rejected his call and switched off my phone I don't have anything to say to him.
