Our Son: A Love So Deep.

Our Son ( Part 43)

🖤43

**Nompumelelo**

I can’t believe Mmelokuhle did that to us. This is the same woman who is supposed to be his wife the one that has royal blood in her the one that the family will approve. In just a day of meeting her and already they have sealed it with a kiss. 

What we share is very special to me and it’s so rare and I know it’s only been what… just a couple of months we’ve been married but this betrayal hurts more than when Mbuso cheated on me when we were together for years. I wasn’t expecting this from Mmelokuhle at all we just buried his grandmother few hours ago and this happens. I can’t!... I’m hurt.

He is holding me so tightly I cant breathe. I can literally feel his heartbeat and this ring keeps on glowing and changing colors from black to silver then gold again. What is happening… why did Ngobese bring us here just to leave us alone and why the hell did they tell me to ask him about his cheating ways. This love game is not for me I swear.

“I want to go home Mmelokuhle please put me down.” I say calmly. That thunder scared me when I screamed I didn’t mean to scream like that it just happened. This place is so peaceful I don’t want to ruin it with my bad energy.

“Baby please look at me…please.” He begs.

“You can’t hold me against my will here Mmelokuhle put me down I want to go home.”

“Love I’m sorry. Hurting you is the last thing I ever want to do. I’m sorry Mam’Mngomezulu she caught me of guard when she kissed me and no I’m not making that as an excuse but it’s true. Your feelings are justified right now. no woman should ever come between us. I love you to death Nompumelelo and you are enough for me. You and Lwandle. I wont do anything to mess that up. Please forgive me sthandwasami.” God knows I love him too but not right now.

“But would you have told me if your ancestors didn’t show it to me.” 

“Our ancestors and yes I was going to tell you tonight. Since that happened I’ve also been feeling off especially near you.” 

“You hurting me Mmelokuhle. If I was the one who did that would you forgive me?...would we be here right now…like this?”

“Fuck no! I will definitely kill the guy! It wouldn’t come to that because that’s not you…I’m sorry love please forgive me.”

“How is that fair? Then let me go. Put me down so I can go kill her too angithi it’s like that.” Damn this stupid tears! He is my weakness and I think he knows it.

“Babe…”

“I asked you nicely Mmelokuhle not to break my heart and you promised yet here we are.”

“I know…I’m sorry.” I sigh. It was just a kiss right nothing more.

Who am I kidding this is the worse pain I ever felt. I think I’m more scared with losing him to her. What if they succeed and he gets married to her. I know I said I will fight for him but he must meet me half way he must give me a reason to fight at the end of the day no one wants to be made or even feel like a fool for just loving someone.

Where are these people when you need them they show me things then leave me alone to deal with it. I wish they didn’t do that maybe if I heard it from him it wouldn’t hurt like this.

“We should head back so I can cut your hair.” 

“Nompumelelo…” 

“yes?”

“I love you with all my heart…you are my heart without you I’m dead always remember that.” He says and puts me down. 

Then there this drift between us a space that I don’t like the moment he steps away from me even the water is now below our knees the waterfall is hiding us from the world if Ngobese returned he wouldn’t be able to see through this waterfall… we standing naked looking at each other more like he is looking down on me since I’m short very short. There’s so much I want to say to him but I’m still hurt yet I feel like a lot of weight was been lift if my shoulders. Coming here really did us good.
