#Insert53 OH Dear God whoses child is this! Sabelo Bring me a blanket child. And bring my phone too she shouts. The child is frozen on the spot. Go Sabelo maan are you deaf!! The scared child runs in, No, please, no cops, please My knees are like jelly and everything just turns dark as I fall, she rushes to catch me but shes late, I hit the ground and faint. Again. I woke up in a strange bed, the woman was still there, she was cleaning me up. Shes saw my confusion and told me I fainted, she said she wanted to call the cops but I refused so she decided to wait for me to wake up before doing anything. You can see shes beating herself up for not calling them. Im feeling much better. I ask if I can use her a phone. She hands it to me and tells she only has about 5 rand airtime. I take it, thank her and then I dial Loys number, he picks up at first ring. Him: Hello who is this!??!! Sounds like hes been panicking. Loy, Baby Its me, does this number show? Zuki, where are you, yes it does Ive been... Loy listen to me I have No air, call me back on this number, now I hang up hoping he heard me good cos my mouth feels like I had a tooth extracted. I know if I dont hang up will keep asking me questions that Ill be unable to answer. It rings again within seconds. Im fine Loy, Loy Listen to me, Im gonna ask the lady to tell u where I am so you can come and fetch me ok. Dont worry, Im ok, Yes Im sure, and please bring me some clothes. Zuki, baby, wait, what happened?. I hand the lady the phone before he finishes and she gives him directions. Says yes a couple of times and then she hangs up. Child What happened to you. I thought you were gonna die, you looked terrible. I forge a smile I was kidnapped and they stole my car and uhmmm, you know.... But thanks for looking after me but Im going to be ok as soon as my friend comes to fetch me, thank you so much. You saved my life. Good Lord, I heard screams last night but I saw nothing when I came out to investigate...so it was you?. Oh merciful God, I should have checked some more, or called 10111. Im so sorry Its not your fault Mam, u didnt know, you have helped me a lot. Opening your home to a stranger, washing my wounds, I cant thank you enough. Im much better now I didnt do anything, you are one tough lady yho. U should call the police, those dogs should rot in jail and.. Then she looks embarrassed. I wish I could give you something to eat but we only have bread, u wont be able to chew... Dont worry about me Mam, I will be fine. Im not even hungry, Seriously, I just wanna lie down for now she leaves me with a knowing smile. I fell asleep again and was woken up by someone kissing my forehead. What did they do you...If I could just get my hands on them Loy was crying when I woke up. His eyes were red, his face wet. I smiled to show him Im fine but he doesnt buy it, must be the way I look. he asks if I saw him. What he looked like. I dont want no pity party but I also dont want to argue with him so I tell him we will speak on the way home. He asks if I wanna lie down some more, I tell him Ive done enough sleeping, He helps me up and dresses me then we walk out, Loy is even ashamed to look at me and I know its because he feels responsible that he wasnt there to help me. I pass a mirror and take a look at myself, I look like death warmed over. Loy is seeing me at my worst. He takes me to the car. I hug the lady and promise to come back to thank her properly. Loy gives her money. She protests, he insists, she accepts it and we drive away. I decide that We will have to take her some food, they seem to be struggling. And Shes a good woman. I ask loy to take me to my Doctor for some pills. We drives there, I bravely go in, I dont care about people staring at me. I tell the Dr Ive been raped, with a straight face showing no emotion. I feel Loys arms around me, I thought I left him in the car. DR is shocked and wants me to report it but I tell him its pointless, I dont know them and dont remember most of what happened, I just wanna move on and forget, he suggests therapy, I agree just to get him off my back and he gives me a business card, I take it and hand it to Loy. I know hes going to push me to go. He gives me the PEP treatment (Post-exposure prophylaxis) to avoid HIV infection. It has to be taken within 72 hours of exposure. I will continue the treatment for about 28 days. And the some morning after tabs to avoid pregnancy. . Loy is listening attentively and I just know he will make sure I follow the orders down to the t. We go back to the car and we drive home. I keep saying this to myself. Im alive! I guess Im trying to stop myself from crying. I remember how I asked God to get me out of this alive. He came through for me. Im alive.
