Waking up to Sakhile and my parents is rather interesting, if it were up to me Mbali would be sitting by my bedside.

"Where's Mbali?"

Is the first thing I ask after scanning the whole room

"She went to shower"

Sakhile says. I nod

"How are you?"

Mom asks

"I feel like I just rose from the dead. What happened?"

I ask

"You were stabbed and your mom gave you a kidney"

Dad says

"Thank you mom"

I say smiling at her

"My pleasure"

I turn to Sakhile

"Please call Mbali"

I say and he nods, walks out to make the call.

"Mom you were quite rude to Sebe"

I sigh at mom

"A day or two ago she wanted nothing to do with you and now she's suddenly here? I don't get it."

I sigh

"Oh mom. It was for her own sanity mos. She needed time just as I did"

Sakhile walks in and mom keeps quiet

"She's on her way"

I nod

"Thank you cuz"

My doctor walks in and observes me and then tells me to get some rest but I assure her I'm good.

"Its nobody's fault. You shouldn't even have anything against considering I was the stubborn one and didn't listen"

She huffs

"I don't hate her"

I scoff

"Could have fooled me"

She rolls her eyes

"I like Mbali because unlike Sebe she doesn't have and ex trying to kill you. I'm a mother, my feelings towards her are reasonable. This is the second time you landing in Hospital because of her. Next time you won't be so lucky"

Mbali walks in. She's crusty with her puffy eyes, pink cheeks, pouty lips, sweat pants and a vest with a jacket on. Just cute! She greets noticing the tension. She throws herself into my arms ignoring my parents. I chuckle, she's too cute

"I'm so glad you're awake"

She says crying on my shoulder

"If I had died, I know who would be sitting in the corner on a sponge"

I joke and she breaks out of my arms remembering my parents are both here

"Uhhm.. I'm sorry"

She says embarrassed and moving back

"No need, we understand"

Mom says, she's far too sweet towards Mbali.

"When did you wake up?"

She asks after having moved back, I'm not used to being this far from her. It sucks!

"A couple of minutes ago. I was hoping you'd be the first face I saw"
