Scene 147 [Three Weeks Later] It was a Friday morning, when I woke up for work and took a bath. Today is the day for the courtcase and Im so going there. I wanna see the man who killed Xolani, even if he didnt do it intentionally. Well, Ntsika and I have been good and my little Luyanda is starting to show. Its now 11 weeks and cravings are getting worse. I crave everything all in one time, even Ntsika. So when I buy something when were together, I have to buy it for him too. The same goes for him. I visited him for the whole week last week, his mother was really happy about that. She kinda helped meh with the menu for my traditional wedding, though were not done. So Ntsika and I are going to sign our marriage certificate in two weeks, then our traditional wedding will be on the 21st of December. I cant wait for it, at least Ill have enough time to plan my white wedding. I want it to be thee wedding and with just a few people there. Tis quite good to do the white wedding here in Durban than in PE, cause everyone there would want to come. I smiled alone as I was holding my cute little bump, I should get Baby Oil before the stretchmarks even think about showing. I went outta the bathroom and went to the bedroom. I lotioned my body and combed my new Brazilian hair. Yeah, I got my hair done! After combing my hair, I got dressed then I applied my make-up. My phone rang, it was Ntsika. Well, he got a new phone, iPhone 6. :-/ Yeah, akathand usalel emva umntu wam. I quickly answered. Meh: Sthandwa sam. Ntsika: Themba lam ndodwa, ulale kamnandi? Meh: Ewe, I just wish ndingalala kwakhona, cause xa ndvukile, ndcinga ukutya. Ntsika: Hehe, nam kaloku. Ndigqib ukutya i-pizza kusa nje, nomama akaykholelwa tu. Meh: Haha, watch that six pack. It might just disappear sthandwa sam. Ntsika: Haha, andkhathali. Mamela-ke my love, I have to go now. Meh: Okay, ndakthanda vha? Ntsika: Ndakthanda nam. We hung up then I packed my work stuff, then took my phone and keys and went to the kitchen. I found Nqubeko washing a bowl. Yuu, akasafuni naye ukphindel emva. Meh: Morning. Nqubeko: Molo. Ulale kakhle? Meh: Ewe, wena? Nqubeko: Nam. Ndikwenzel i-breakfast, check in the oven. Mandleqe-ke mna. Meh: Uyaphi ngoku? Youre always going out nowadays. Nqubeko: Hehe, soze uzazi iindlela zam Yoliswa, so dont even bother asking. Meh: Are you over that R1 million? Nqubeko: Tyhini bethunana! Bye Yoliswa. He went out as quickly as he could. Meh: Oh, well, whatever! I spoke to myself as I opened the oven to take out my breakfast. . . When I arrived at work, I found Dumi there at the reception with Neliswa and Angela. Meh: Morning guys. Them: Hey. Meh: Manje, wena Dumi? Dumi: Ngize kwena hawu. Ngvele ngavuka nje ekseni ngathi angvakashele uMaYolie, imal iningi. I giggled. So Xolani gave Dumi everything, all his assets and R1.5 million. Apparently he had been saving and had a business operating in Zambia, so Dumi also inherited that company, which hes going to sell. Xolani also left a letter, saying that incase he died before his grandma, she should be given at least R500 000 and Dumi was more than happy to do that. Meh: Ndyaybona loonto, iyakutshisa neh? Dumi: Ewe! Awfuni ngikkhiphe Neliswa? Neliswa laughed and nodded. Uh, awuzwe-ke uhleko lwamasarha! He-e nana! Wanggabha, theyrefore [therefore] awubalwanga emabhukwini angcwele. Sengnentombi entsha manje. I laughed for a few seconds then held myself since Neliswa took a quick jap at meh. Angela was totally lost, so she decided to do her work instead. Neliswa: Hawu, ngathi ngsukelwe uwena! Dumi: Ubungeke nje usanqaba?! Hawu, ntombazane. Askhuphuke MaYolizana, sshiye lo. Mina ngne-meeting noMr Van der Paw. Meh: Haha, hayi Dumi! NguVan der Port. Dumi: Kona lokho! I laughed and took the lift with him. . . [Ntsikas Diary] Ntsika, Nqubeko and Babalwa met at Babalwas place. It was in the middle of nowhere, at Stanger. Babalwa liked his place quiet, without any disturbance. Thats just how he was. When there are too many people talking, he ticks and loses his cool. Well, Ntsika, Babalwa and Nqubeko have been watching that house with the cash for two weeks. They observed everything, so that it would be easy for them to get in there and steal the money. Babalwa: Manene! Right on time. Mamelani-ke, nani nyayazi ukba la ndoda ihamba exactly ngo-8, so thina syangena 10 minutes after. Ntsika: U-8 uzotshaya ngoku and asnamoto. Babalwa: Haha, ungazkhathazi ngaloonto. Ikhon i-van apha, after were done, syaytshisa qha. 15 minutes or less Ntsika noNqubeko, syevana? Nqubeko: Babalwa, thina senzela wena i-favour apha cause syayaz ukbana wena uding imali nje qha. Babalwa laughed and opened the garage, Nqubeko and Ntsika looked at each other. Dumi called Ntsika and Babalwa seemed to complain as he answered the phone. Dumi: Awungkhumbuli yini wena? Mina ngyakkhumbula manje. Ukephi? Ntsika: Ngphusha ispani Dumi. Dumi: Usphusha nobani ngingekho? Ohho, ngoba sekukhona lo maqumbane owuNqubeko, mina usuyanghlehlisa. Ntsika: Lalela, sokhuluma kwi-court case. Dumi: Mxm, suka! Angiyi lapho mina, ngine-meeting. Ntsika: Uyaya, bye. Dumi: Ima! Awungkhumbuli yini wena? Ntsika: Mmh, ehhe. Dumi: Ehhe ini? Ntsika: Ehhe, lokhu okshoyo. Dumi: Awungkhumbuli? Ntsika: Cha. Dumi: Ohho, cha, awungkhumbuli. Ntsika: Ngyakkhumbula! Babalwa and Nqubeko turned and looked at Ntsika. Nqubeko: Tyhini! Babalwa: Hayi bethunana! Dumi laughed his ass off. Dumi: Manje pho wangshusha? Isho kahle. Ntsika: Fokof! Bye bye. Dumi: Ima! Ngyakkhumbula nami. Ntsika: Nx, uneme. He hung up as Dumi was laughing. Babalwa and Nqubeko shook their heads. What?! Both: Nothing! Babalwa: Switch it off! They all got in the van then Babalwa drove away. . . They arrived at Hillcrest in no time, they checked the time, it was nearly 08h00 and the man was reversing outta the yard. Babalwa: We use the back entry, we switch off the main switch. We use the roof top to get in and out, finish! Nqubeko: Waythetha yalula le nto. Babalwa: Ilula maan. Kutheni na ngani? Ntsika: Mna ndcing ukba ilula. Babalwa: Nantso-ke kwedini! He drove away to the street at the back then they got out. They put on blue pants and blue jackets on top of their clothes and large boots. They put their guns on their backs and put on their gloves and balaclavas. Babalwa: Prayer? Ntsika: Babalwa, sukgez apha. Babalwa: Haha, ndyadlala maan. They all got outta the van and closed the sliding door. They jumped the fence in seconds and walked to the house. Nqubeko: Babalwa khawenze maan! Babalwa: Relax. He walked and stopped infront of the wall. He hit it softly three times and pushed it. The main switch showed up then he switched it off. Ntsika: Ungayvali. Xa sesbuya well just have to close it, sihambe, qha! Babalwa: Good idea. They looked around and walked up the outside stairs to the roof. Nqubeko opened the roof top, and looked at Babalwa. Nqubeko: Ngena. Babalwa: Awundthembi na Nqubeko? Ntsika: Ngena maan! Babalwa walked down the ladder into the house first, Nqubeko followed then it was Ntsika. They got inside and shook their heads. Babalwa: Ingaske ibe ngeyam nje le ndlu. Nqubeko: Mmh, ndingenza nantoni na. Ntsika: Ixesha maan! They walked down the passage and two pitbulls met them half way. Nqubeko: Babalwa, ziinton ezi? Babalwa: Hee maan, ktheni ubuza mna nje? Ezi-pitbulls zange sizbone. Ntsika: Shit! If I survive, ungofileyo wena Babalwa! Ndakxelela chap! Uzawndazi ungandazi nje. As they were talking with their teeth stuck together, they didnt even move an inch. Their eyes were fixed on the two huge dogs, who were staring back at them. . .
