you took me for a fool

chapter 6

After 3 months, me and Taliyah were in good healthy relationship. We had so many things in common. She was different from Sihle because she was self independent and all she needed was love. She had the money because she owned a company of fashion. I guess that's one of the things that drew me to her because she was self dependant. I had less pressure to try and impress her where as with Sihle I had to buy her something in order to make her happy. We would always meet at the cafeteria and everytime we meet our bond gets stronger and stronger. She's even planning on moving in with me, which um looking forward to because I want to wake up next to those beautiful blue eyes. She is so beautiful like honestly I could stare at her the whole day if we didn't have work to do.

It's lunch time and I am preparing to go to the cafeteria and meet Taliyah. I get there and I see her sitting at the last table staring at her phone. She was dressed in formally in a blue women's suit which complimented her to a T. She raised her head and smiled when she saw me approach the table. When I sat down the doors of the Cafeteria opened and guess who came in Sihle and Jack came in hand in hand and my jaw dropped. They sat two tables Infront of us but my head was already going back to memory lane. All the pain they caused me and the humiliation flooded my mind. " Are you ok? Tali asked noticing that my attention was somewhere else. " Remember the girl that broke my heart that I told you about,"I said. " Yes the evil witch, " she said laughing. "There she is with the same man, " I said pointing at the table two tables Infront of us. Her jaw dropped as she looked at their direction. " I am so sorry like you must be feeling very uncomfortable but don't let them ruin our coffee date. This is our moment not theirs so lets forget about them and just chat about us, " she said holding my hand. I felt so much better after she said that. We started chatting conversations flowing and then the unexpected happened. Sihle stood up and walked towards us."Hey Nk long time no see. Who is this did you move on that quickly," she said smiling. Was this girl crazy or something I thought. If looks could kill I stared at her with disgust and I said " 1 year is not moving on quickly and by the way her name is Tali. She makes me happier than u ever could". " Oh is it ok. I have one advice for you Tali, he will fail to provide for you just like he failed to provide for me. Look at me now, I live in a mansion and I have a car. These are things that Nk could never do,"she said smirking looking at me. " First of all hie people with manners greet people before saying anything. Secondly you would be shocked to hear that Nk is doing better in his life that he bought himself a house and a car but thats not why I love him. I love him because he brightens my day, he makes me laugh. He treats me with respect and sometimes he spoils with flowers and gifts but the key word is sometimes. I don't need him to buy me gifts in order for him to show his love. I just want him to be himself because that's what attracted me to him. If you are so happy in your relationship then why are you here trying to ruin ours," Tali said cooly. I was shocked and happy at the same time because no one had ever fought for me like that and to hear how much she felt about me made me think how lucky I am. " You have heard everything Sihle now you can go back to your so called superman,"I said and Tali and I both laughed as she went back to her table with Jack looking defeated and humiliated. Jack was about to stand and come to me but Sihle stopped him and asked them to leave. As they left I couldn't stop complimenting Tali for what she had done for me today. " Don't worry sweet heart you are my ride or die,"she said holding my hand. I know it's early for this but she is already my partner for life
