LAD4 After church sunday I drove with lusi to go fetch silusapho at my moms house. I got there besecaweni. NgeLuck uXola ebekhona so I checked in with him. Silu went to play with the kids outside. Me: omama babuya nini kanti ecaweni? Him: noba basendleleni ezayo ngoku. Me: okay.. Yoh.. Umphakishele. Him: ubani? Me: uSilusapho.. Him: ewe.. How are you? Waphakama wayokuphaka ekitchen.. I could see him from where I was sitting. Me: ndiphilile and you? Him: no Im fine.. Uzothini apha? Me: ndizothatha umntana. Him: on sunday? Me: yah.. Him: oh.. Njani? Me: uzoyohlala nam.. Wayeka uphaka wandijonga Me: jah.. Whats wrong? Haibo. Him: hayi akhonix.. Waqhubeleka ngophaka.. Kwangena uSipho emnyango.. Him: hayi nomdade.. Ulapha kanti.. Ncede ndizokroba moss. Me: tshotsho ufike va Him: uzothini apha ngecawe ezintsukwini? Me: ndizothatha umntanam. Him: Sunday?? Haibo? Ayifani nawe lonto. Me: uzozohlala nam aloku. Bajongana noXola. Me: Yintoni ingathi ndingumntu ongenasphatho? Sipho: No its not that.. Its just that.. You know. Me: no.. I will be fine.. Was under a lot of stress umdala ngoku usilu.. Him: ohk.. Ubhuti lungelo uthini? Me: hayi uright ngalonto.. I didnt wanna dwell on that.. My mother came with my lil sister Lumka and silusapho along with my dad.. We had family lunch. Around 6 I drove to my place. I took silu with me. I didnt like the fact that they all thought silu was going to break umtshato wam, atleast thats what they think. I dont know what came over me ngoku ndandinomntana omncinci but Im willing to fix that. I wanna make our lives different and very happy. I was on a road to fix things. Silu asked a lot of times why she cant stay with us and I gave her lame excuses. Ngumntanam unelungelo lokuhlala nathi. Andikhathali noba bonke bathini nah. Ingxaki zabantu abasemtshatweni azifani. Nalena sizodlula kuyo. Sometimes I think its all because I lost a lot of interest in a lot of things. Especailly in my marriege and in taking care of lungelo or giving him any attention. Sometimes I feel like we both participated in this mess the both of us. The blame is only on me, I dont understand why. I got home and my baby angel was excited. Silu: Mama. Me: sapho.. Her: ndize holdeyini? Me: ha.a aloku bhabha uzohlala nathi ngoku. Wancuma wandixhumela.. I bent over and gave her a hug. We were in the kitchen. So we went to the living room coz lungelo was there. He was not on his best moods. He didnt even turn his head when we called him out. He was just out of it. Me: Tata kaLusi.. Wama uSilu ndaya kulungelo ngokwam. Me: Silu noZama yiyani ekamereni.. Nibe niqoqosha impahla zenu.. Zama ncedisa sisi wakho ndiyeza mna ngoku.. Okay mama So they went to Silus room and I stayed behind with Lungelo. Ndayakuye.. He was watching T.V, discovery Channel. Drinking Beer in the house. I sat on a chair opposite his. He didnt even look at me. Me: Lungelo whats going on? Him: Can I be alone? Me: Alone! Why? Why are you even drinking in the house lungelo?? Whats wrong? I mean whats troubling you huh? He took a sip from his castle lite. Him: Beningekho, I had just two drinks. Me: Oh okay, please bangakuboni usela abantwana. Him: it was just Two beers ndiright.. I could see a glass on the table with whiskey on rocks. I didnt want to ask any further questions. We might fight over something so little. It was clear that lungelo was in fear that nzokohluleka ndiphinde ndingamhoyi. I promised myself that I will prove wonke umntu wrongo. I went to Silus room which was next to lusis room. They were playings dolls together. Ndabalalisa.. Ndaya ekamereni. Lungelo was already in the room. Under blankets with his whiskey. I saw tears coming out of his eyes. I closed the door slowly coz I knew something was wrong with him. I took off my clothes without saying a word. I wore my pjs and I sat upright next to him. After a while of silence. UMama uswelekile, She was killed in a Robbery. They shot her 5 times. She fought for her life. She was announced to be dead on arrival at the Hospital.. Umama Undishiyile Siwe I didnt know what to say to him. Ive never seen lungelo cry before over such realistic activity in his life. I just couldnt believe that UMama usishiyile. I sat next to him ndabamba isandla sakhe and promised him that everything will be fine.
