Chapter 49. Inhliziyo yam yayishaya engathi izophuma esfubeni. The forrest was endless and seemed to be getting more thicker and thicker. The running footsteps got louder and louder. I kept checking behind me ngingaboni muntu then decided to pick up the pace which changed into a fast run. I ran and ran but didnt reach the end of the forrest but instead ngathuka sengizwa amazwi. The laughter got louder until I was covering my ears. Someone grabbed me from behind wangivala umlomo. I kept fighting until he held a gun against my head. Man1: You scream, I shoot. another mean appeared. Man2: You cant run. he pulled out a knife and came towards me. Joshua was calling my name from a distance. He kept calling and calling ngaze ngathuka ngavula amehlo. Zaza: You having a nightmare. I sat up ngabheka iskhathi. It was after 11pm. Me: It felt so real. Thank you for waking me up. Zaza: Uphupha ini? Me: Men chasing me. Zaza: Uzokwaz ukulala futhi? Me: Yeah. Thank you sisi Zaza: Awulambanga? Me: Cha. Goodnight sisi Zaza: Night she got up and left. Ngayochama nami ngabuya ngalala futhi. I was missing home so bad. I didnt even get a chance to say goodbye to my friends. Im sure they were worried about me. I didnt want to think about Sizwe. Selling me out to a ruthless gangster just like that. The fact that he came to see claiming bayangidinga ekhaya kwakuyindlela nje yokuzobheka ukth uJason akakangibulali yini. But what was the link between Jason and Sizwe beside that Didi woman. If Jason knew me while growing up means he knew Sizwe before the affair, but how? Yena uJoshua wayengena ngaphi? I needed to know the truth because I was now caught in this web of lies and killing ekubeni mina ngangingazi lutho. I dont know when I slept again but ngaphaphama sekusile. I went to shower ngaqeda ngazogqoka. Trust a man to pack for you avele apakish umbhedo wodwa. I wore a sweatpant ne-vest. Zaza walked in with food. Zaza: I dont even remember what its called but kumnandi. Me: And you pregnant. Most pregnant women eat anything. Zaza: Uyahlekisa. I see, yizwa i-taste. I took a fork ngakha and she was right. It tasted so good shame plus kwase kuyiskhathi ngagcina ukudla. We ate saqeda sase saxoxa nje. Zaza was outspoken and I planned to use that to my advantage. Obviously she knew Joshua more then me. Me: So what shall we do today? Zaza: Une-energy today? Me: Im in Spain so I might aswel use this opportunity. Zaza: Well angazi ukth sizoyaphi. We can go shopping. But you have to change those clothes. Me: Why? Zaza: It doesnt do you any justice at all. Wear jeans atleast Me: Anginawo. I only have these. Zaza: Then we are seriously going shopping. she got up wayoshintsha wabuya. Thizo: Niyaphi? Zaza: Shopping. Thizo: With what money? Did you exchange the currency? Zaza: Not really. Thizo: Yimi ngedwa owayecabanga lokho. Here. wakhipha imali wamnika. That should be enough. Me: Thank you Thizo: Ningahambi phela kakhulu. Zaza: We wont She kissed him sahamba. We went to few shops. The fact that we didnt understand the language made it difficult for us to enjoy. After shopping we went to eat. Me: So, How did you end up with Thizo? Zaza: We dont choose who we love Me: I know ey. Najola esevele eseyigintsha? Zaza: No. Sajola sisafunda. Ngake ngamyeka for a while nami ngixakwa ilempilo but I went back again Me: Why? Zaza: Uthando aluboni dade. Me: Awusabi kodwa? Zaza: Kuyajwayeleka. Ngaqale ngamsaba nami ngenkath esaqala but ngabuye ngamjwayela. Me: They say gangsters are violent towards the ladies in thier lives. How true is that? Zaza: Some pastors rape women in thier churchs but we dont assume all pastors are bad people. Same applies to gangsters. Me: I guess you right. Zaza: I am. Mina uThizo akakaze angishaye. Yes uyadinwa but akangishayi. Me: What about Joshua? Is he violent towards women? Zaza: I cant say much about that. What I know is that Joshua gets angry. Ive seen him. Nawe nje ngikunika i-tip. Avoid unnecessary fights. Me: I will keep that in mind. Zaza: Impela wenzenjalo. Me: Ukuth nje I dont think our relationship will last. Zaza: Why? Me: Lies. Angisakwazi okuyiqiniso nokwamanga. Its like impilo yam yonke nje yakhelwe phezulu kwamanga. Zaza: Kwanzima sis Me: You have no idea. Zaza: Manje uzokwenzenjani? Me: Try to find the truth. Zaza: And if you dont like what you find? Me: Atleast I would know. Zaza: Thats brave. Me: More like stupid but kuncon ngazi kunalokhu kuvelelwa izinto ezinzima zodwa. Zaza: Do you love Joshua? Me: I think so. Zaza: Gloria, that guy really loves you. What man, would want to kill his best friend for a woman he doesnt know. I admit that wayezekuwe ngobugebengu but now he is fighting for your survival. Dont hurt him. I dont think he can survive that kind of pain. Me: Okay. Well things werent exactly going my way but I had two weeks to dig her for more info.
