Well, the breakfast with Obrey's family was nice, even though I had eaten earlier but I was taught that it's rude to decline food. We are now driving to my place, I'm honestly tired but since I need to give him directions as I refused to give him my address now I need to stay up.
We finally get to my house and I notice Zweli's car parked outside, Great! What does he want this time? "Thank you, for everything" I attempt to get out of the car "Amanda, wait" he gently holds my arm preventing me from leaving. I look at him waiting for him to speak, "can I take you out, on a proper date?" I keep quiet then he sighs in defeat, "I understand if you can't..." I cut him off "I'd love to go on a proper date with you" he smiles, "tonight?" I nod while smiling back. "I'll message you the details then"
I chuckle because last I checked, he doesn't have my number. i guess he remembered that as well because he hands me his phone which is already opened to the dial pad, I punch in my number and then hand it back to him." have a great afternoon" I say, he smiles.
I leave his car and he drives off. Zweli is standing near the door facing the direction of the gate. I walk in, "Zweli, Hi" I greet while unlocking the door. "Ubuyaphi makaPhile(where are you from)?" I do not answer Zweli so I choose to ignore him bluntly. I open the door and step aside to make way for him to come in.
He steps in and walks to the sitting room, I walk upstairs to change, and I slip into sweatpants and a baggy hoodie. Walking back downstairs I find Zwe sitting in front of the blank TV screen.
"Look Amanda..." he sighs, okay... "I thought I should drop by to apologize for how things ended the last time I was here" oh that, well there was no need for him to come all the way just to apologize. "it's evident that I cannot stay away from you, there's something that keeps drawing me back to you but it's clear that you've moved on and I don't want to be of hindrance to you so I'll keep my distance," he says all this while sitting down, thereafter he stands, fixes himself and walks to the door.I didn't say anything not because I had nothing to say but because the sight in front of me broke my heart, he looked broken and distressed, as much as Zoe and I aren't together but he's still the father of my kids and I care about him a lot.
I finally snap out of my thoughts and decide to call my babies. "hello mommy" Phile answers but I can hear buhle from the background trying to get ahold of the phone and shouting at Phile. Weird as this is, it warms my heart. I spoke to my 2 favorite humans for some time before I decided to do some cooking. A message notification came in on my phone while I was still deciding what to cook.
"Sandton city, 8 pm" attached to it is a heart emoji. It's Obrey, well I don't think I'm still in any mood to go out so I sent him an sms canceling our outing, I made an excuse that Buhle has a fever and so I need to take care of him. I prepared dinner for myself and then finally called it a night.
