LUCHUMO
I cried myself to sleep yesterday . I’m so grateful for my friends . They were here for me , making sure that I’m ok .
Sphetho had to spend a night here. As awkward as it was . I was so hurt to notice stupid things .
“ So how are going to make this baby ? “
Me : by s*x .
He gives me a side eye.
Me : you don’t have a right to judge me boy .
I helps him wear the jacket .
Him : I won’t judge you . After finally hearing them talk to you Luke that . You did what you had to do .
Me : I just …
I try so hard to send the tears back to the sender but it’s not easy . He pulls me to a hug .
Him : please don’t cry .
I wipes my tears .
Me : please drive me to Dr. Gasa’s surgery .
Him : ok then , let’s get going .
Lee left very early.
We walks out . I hope I’m not late .
Just in time . I find Menzi passing up and down in the parking lot.
Me : Thank you.
Sphetho: is that him ?
I nods .
Him : he looks rich . Bye , good luck.
Me : thank you .
He nods . I get off the car . I make my way to Menzi who looks like he’s ready to kill someone .
Him : you took your Damn time .
Me : I’m sorry .
He shook his head in disapproval . He turns to go but quickly looks back like he just remembered something .
Him : your eyes. Are you ok ?
Shit ! My eyes a kinda red and swollen from crying my eyes balls out yesterday at night .
Me : I’m ok.
He’s not buying it .
Him : we can cancel the appointment if you want .
Me : I’m ok .
That came out as a whisper . I’m looking at him . He’s tall and I’m short .
He takes my hand as we walks in .
I like this doctor already. She’s such a sweetheart .
Her : right on time . You’re on your Ovulation.
Menzi : great then . Let’s start working .
He brushes his hands together with a smile .
The doctor writes something down .
Her : so , which one ? Natural or Artificial ?
Me : Natural .
Me : Artificial .
Ok , I should have kept quite . Now they are looking me .
Dr. : you want to do Natural insemination?
Me : please explain . I didn’t do life science at school .
They laugh . Now I feel like a fool . This is not how you should treat your patient .
Menzi : Natural insemination . We’ll have s*x to transfer sperms …
Too much information .
Me : Artificial?
Menzi : we use ..
He looks at the doctor .
Dr. : catheter , we use Catheter .
I’m shaking right now . What’s that ? What is a catheter .
Me : ok , Artificial .
They nods . They get me ready for the process .
I’m here in bed not ready . This is crazy … I’ve never used a tampon because it is scary . Just like this thing .
The nurse next to me is annoyed as f**k .
Dr. : please try to relax . It won’t hurt .
Me : I’m try .
I takes a deep breath . My knees are shaking .
Nurse : you should have chose Natural . I’ll die to have that guy between my legs .
She whispers . I looks at her . Baby girl . You’re speaking adults things .
The doctor walks out . I closes my legs fast breathing heavy .
Nurse : just chose Natural baby girl . This thing will make you feel weird I’m telling you .
Me : he’s in a relationship .
Her : do you believe that? If he had a girlfriend, why did he choose to get a surrogate instead of getting his girlfriend pregnant ?
The doctor comes back with Menzi . I quickly covers myself .
Dr. : please try to talk to her .
The nurse and the doctor walk out . He closes the door behind them .
Him : let’s just trying natural .
He takes off his pants.
Me : No , what ? No .
Him : we don’t have a choice .
Me : we do .
Him : he doesn’t want to wake up .
He points at his thing . This is creepy . I’m in deep s**t right now .
He comes closer .
Him : it will be quick .
Me : I’m not different from a p********e .
He sighs .
Him : I’m sorry to make you feel like that . We can try Artificial one more time .
He pulls his pant , now I feel bad.
Me : we can come back tomorrow .
Him : you want to go home?
Me : yes please .
Him : ok , let me talk to the Dr.
He walks out . I need to relax and get ready that if my body is failing to relax again . I’ll do Natural .
