Weeks passed and turn into months my final exam was done it was the school holidays now. I wish I could visit home but my dad would strangle me with this huge belly that is showing.
I was brought back to reality with my Aunts hills clicking on the floor, she walked into the kitchen while I was busy preparing dinnerAunt: that smells good, what's cooking"
Me: beef curry and pap"
She looked at me with amazement, I didn't t cook I just wormed yesterday food, I suck at cooking, my aunt is trying so hard to teach me but I failed miserably
Her: what's the occasion?"
Me: just finished my exam'
she smiled and came close and rubbed my tummy.
Her: I'm sure you excelled my child"
I nodded and finished warming up our food, dished up for my aunt and me and we dug in, she was busy talking going on and on about how work was, I nodded to show interest even though I just felt like telling her to shut up.
She finally called it a night and went to bed, I stayed behind and continued to watch TV. I was not sleepy at all and school was closed so why not stay up till late. my phone Beep when I looked at the caller ID I felt this uneasy feelingLanga: when were u going to tell me? and don't lie to me cause I know that's my baby you carrying "
I read the massage and felt tears in my eyes. ooh sh*** now he is going to notice that I'm online, I immediately log out of WhatsApp. My phone started vibrating~~call~~
I was very hesitant in answering the phone, without noticing I answered
Him: halo ..... Hello . .."
Me: hi Langa"
Him: explain yourself please!"
He was angry but, tried to talk to me very softly. There was this thing with his voice that made me weak in the knees
Me: Langa how are you? I"m good thanks for asking?
Him: you still cocky ?"
He laughed at least now I can try and talk to him
Me: Langa this situation is complicated I just don't know how to untangle myself out of it"
Him: baby we in this thing together nje, was that the reason why you broke up with me ?"
I didn't say a word, my silence just answered him
Him: listen I'm coming down next week I will handle this "
Me: Langa no please, you know how my dad is he would kill us "
Him: I'll die trying in that case"
Me: please listen to me for once .....There was silence and I could feel he was thinking
Him: Zola I miss You, and I love u and I will make this right I promise"
I wish I didn't believe him, But I loved him too much not to trust him
Me: I got to go"
Him: sweet dreams Baby"
I dropped the call and for once in 8 months I felt like my fantasy was coming true.
I wish I could hold Langa right now. For the first time, I actual felt connected to this baby I rubbed my tummy and smiled. I was not sure if I loved Langa more than this baby but I was glad he called me, maybe there is hope after all
