#64 I get to our table, we hug and share a brief kiss. He opens the chair for me before getting to his side of the table. Lunga:” you look too good for words” me:” thanks you too” lunga:” and black seems to be the colour of the evening” me:” tell me about it” lunga:” I’ve already orderd for you I hope you don’t mind” me:” not at all” our drinks arrive, he drinks wine while I have a fruit cocktail. Lunga:” how was your day?” me:” it was good, but now its better” lunga:” I know the feeling” we make small talks our meal arrives and continue bonding, I am really into this guy now, but I cant find it in me to allow myself to love him the way that he deserves to be loved. After our three course meal he settles the bill and we leave. We walk hand-in-hand occasionally kissing into the mall doing some window shopping. Even though I had a big meal I crave some chicken nuggets, I suppress the urge while we continue with our window shopping. After a while we head out into the parking, lunga walks me into my car. lunga:” is there anything you need before we leave?” me:” now that you’ve mentioned it, I would like some chicken nuggets” lunga:” after the huge meal you had?” me:” well yes” lunga:” do you have a place in mind?” me:” McDonalds” lunga:” ok, let me get my car and I will follow you” he goes to his car and when I see it approach I reverse out of the parking and we leave heading to McD’s. we park our cars and walk in, I order my nuggets and throw in some ice cream. Lunga is standing behind me and has his arms around my waist. He keeps tugging my ear with his lips and Im enjoying every minute of it, “ I cant wait walking around Durban with you when you start showing” he whispers and gently rubs my stomach. We get our order and we turn to leave, just as we get closer to the door, hand-in hand I see sandile and mathapelo walking towards us. Mathapelo is a few steps ahead of sandile, Im not sure if they have seen us because sandile has his head down scrolling his phone or texting. I don’t know why but I try to get lunga to let go of my hand but he holds it firmly. I try again and I can tell that he knows why I suddenly want to pull my hand away. lunga:” lethu no” me:” but…” lunga:” its high time he knows about us, unless you are ashamed of me.” me:” Im not, its just that…” lunga:” Im not letting go” right then sandile decides to lift his head up and his eyes first meet mine, then they travel to lunga and he frowns. They go further down and he sees our hands locked together and his frown quickly turn into anger. Its only then that mathapelo sees us and she stops walking and wait for sandile. Sandile’s car is parked two cars away from lunga’s car and our paths are bound to cross. my knees feel too weak to carry me, but lunga is determined to get us moving and forward we go. lunga’s grip is so firm that not even liquids can penetrate through them, I want to be a magician and do a vanishing act. As soon as sandile has caught up with mathapelo, she attempts to het hold of his hand but he does the unthinkable and brush her off. I can help but feel mortified on her behalf, shame poor mathaps. We reach them, mathapelo:” now don’t you look cute in matching outfits, look at them sandile. Your ex-wife and partner. I must say you make a better couple than you and my fiancé” sandile:” shut up” mathapelo:” don’t tell me to shut up, its my…” Im guessing she was going to say its her mouth but she never got to that part, how sad to be silenced by a slap. I know how disorientated sandile’s slap leaves you, I can only imagine the pain she and further embarrassment she must be feeling. can I be allowed to call this lady karma, who is serving her a slice of that uncalled for beating that she rejoiced about. lunga:” baby lets go” I cant move I feel glued to the spot, sandile:” lethu is he the one you’ve been seeing?” mathapelo:” why do you care who your ex-wife is seeing, its her…” sandile:” you don’t learn do you?” Mathapelo:” Ndile baby, this witch…” sandile:” stop calling my wife names” mathapelo:” your wife? you are…” now this is becoming too sad to witness, he slaps her yet again. Sandile:” I asked you a question lethu? Does he know that you are carrying my child?”…
