*THABO*

I open the door and she smiles at me, I give her a side hug and kiss her on the cheek
“How are you? I hope you didn’t get lost” I say stepping aside for her
“No I didn’t thank you. I’m good and how are you?” she asks
“I’m also good, Come let me introduce you. Did you bring everything?” I ask her and she takes out a paper and hands me her results and everything else
“Awesome stuff. Can I call you Lihle?” I ask her and she chuckles
“Yes you can” she says as we head out back to Athule
“Thule this is Thembelihle, I met her on Tinder” I say and Athule frowns confused
“Hi, nice to meet you. You guys have a beautiful apartment” Lihle says holding out her hand to Athule who take it looking at me with questioning eyes
“Let me wear a t-shirt and then we can head out”

*IMITHANDAZO*

Whoever said shopping is therapeutic wasn't lying. I have so much joy and happiness right now just from buying few items. I can't wait to get home and try on them. To think that I am going to gain weight and be big makes me cringe but it's going to be worth it at the end.

I am also planning on following a balanced strict diet. I won't be those women who eat everything and anything when they pregnant in the name of "eating for two".

I've seen that shit ruining lots of women's bodies,the moment this "two" comes out you struggle going back into shape and that can never be me.

I load my bags into the car and prepare to leave when I see Ayanda approaching. I sigh,do I have to bump with her everywhere I go? It's starts to feel like she's stalking me

" Oh don't worry, I come in Peace" she says approaching me with that fake plastic smile and I return it folding my arms learning against the car.
" How can I help you with Ayanda?"
" Oh nothing much, just wanted to find out what changed your mind and how was having my baby with you?"
Seriously? I roll my eyes and answer her calmy as possible " it was okay, Nosi is a lovely child. She didn't give me any problems. As for what changed my mind, I told you we'll do this didn't I?"
" I just didn't think you were serious, so you and Musa are in a good space now?"
" Why should I discuss my marriage with you konje?"
" Because I helped you somehow, without me Musa would have long left your cold boring ass"
I laugh shaking my head getting inside my car
"You need to heal baby girl, in future don't trust a man who tells you they are going to leave their wives for you. Rather wait until the divorce is final"
" He's still going to cheat you know"
" Rest ntombo,I suggest you stop being bitter. If you want Nosi to have a healthy relationship with her father I guess you and have to be civil,not friends but civil. Go heal your heart, Musa is my husband. He will always,I mean always,choose me"

I wink at her and start the car driving out. Side chicks and drama. They date married men knowingly and throw tratrums when shit hit the fan. Uzoba strong.

*ATHULE*
I look at this Thembelihle and WOW. She’s a real beauty in person, when I saw her on Tinder I didn’t think I’d be meeting one of my favourite writers. I don’t even know how to act. She’s really pretty in person no doubt.
“Nice to meet you Athule” She says
“Can I offer you wine?” I ask her, I’m stunned because I don’t even know what the hell is going on here
“Yes please” she says and I lead us inside and pour her wine from the one we were drinking earlier
“May I ask why you here?” I ask her
“Thabo called me” she says
“How do you guys know each other, I hope you don’t mind me asking” I say nervously, she chuckles
“We met on Tinder but apparently we know each other through business” she responds and I nod. We sit in awkward silence or atleast it's awkward from my side as we wait for Thabo to come back.
By the grace of God he comes back before it gets more awkward
“I hope you ladies were good to each other” he says, I shoot him a look but he ignores me.
