I hear an annoying beeping sound and I open my eyes I'm in a white room and from the smell I now know that I'm in a hospital and I start remembering what happened before I collapsed....am I really pregnant did I lose the baby if I did I will never forgive Ndalo and my friendship with her is officially over...in the room I see Busani,Buhle,Mazulu,Sli and my father in law...Busani sees I'm awake and rushes towards me
Him:baby are you okay??
I try talking but my throat is so dry he gives me some water and I drink it
Me:I'm okay what happened
Him:baby you had blood running down your legs and you collapsed
Me:what was the reason for that to happen
Him:baby you were 3 months pregnant how come you didn't know
Me:were?did I lose my baby??
He keeps quiet
Me:Busani ngikhuluma nawe(I'm speaking to you)
Him:well yes and no...
I frown because I'm so confused right now
Me:what do you mean yes and no I'm so confused right now elaborate what you mean
He looks and his parents the looks back at me
Him:you were pregnant with twins and you lost one and if we hadn't rushed you to the hospital you would have lost both of them
I look at him for a while and I blink and as soon as I blink tears run down my face.... I lost my baby because the person I loved and called my bestfriend it's clear she doesn't want us to be friends she has taken away my baby from me and that stupid Amanda...at least one survived
Me:where's the doctor??
Him:do you feel any pain are you okay??
He asks panicking?
Me:no I'm fine I just want to ask the doctor something
He sighs relieved he asks Sli to go call the doctor and after a few minutes she walks in with the doctor
Dr:hey Mrs Bhengu hwi are you feeling
Me:I'm okay doctor everything is okay except me losing my baby....can I ask you something??
Dr:yeah sure what is it
Me: how long will be here for?
Dr:well everything is okay the baby is okay so we would only have to keep you for observation tonight
Me:okay thank you doctor...so this means tomorrow morning I can leave
Him:yes ma'am but I would suggest you do not do hardwork and get some rest and not stress
Me:thank you doc that will be all
He smiles and leaves
Busani:why were you asking??
Me: for uMemulo ka Sli
MaZulu:baby you don't have to go you need to rest
Me:ma I'm okay I just want to attend it that's all
Bab'bhengu:usure ukahle ngan'yam

The following day:Saturday
Now I have signed the discharge forms and I'm packing my clothes ready to leave I cant wait for the ceremony....don't get me wrong yes I should be a least grieving for my baby but I just don't want to think about it too much so this will get my mind off it Busani walks in he smiles and I smile back at him he walks over to me and gives a kiss
Him:I see you're ready to go
Me:yes I hate hospitals baby let's go I already signed the forms
We leave the hospital and walk to the car we get to the car I buckle up and I see he is staring at I look at him
Me:baby why are you looking at me like that
Him:how are you feeling about losing one of the twins
Me:honestly I'm sad that I didn't get to hold him or her and angry at the fact that Ndalo is also part of the reason why I lost my baby and I don't rely think I will ever forgive her or give our friendship a chance again and I really don't know why she switched up on me really
Him:baby I'm so sorry for what Ndalo did I'm also not feeling good about us not having to meet him or her we will get through this together my love
Me:are you sure you are okay I mean you lost your baby too
Him:I will be fine sthandwa sam don't worry and we should be happy that we didn't lose both of them
Me:yeah that's truly a great blessing sthandwa sam
Him:a huge one and you're going to be a great mom yazi
Me:you too babe...now let's go so we won't be late for uMemulo ka Sli
Him:remember no working for you you rest until the ceremony starts
He says stating the engine and driving offline
Me:yes I remember baby
After 10 minutes we arrive at his house and everything is coming along together we get into the main house and we bump into Ndalo she looks up at me..
Ndalo:Yaya I...
Me:don't call me that!
She looks down and mutters a sorry
Ndalo:I heard about the baby I'm so sorry
Me:Ndalo your sorry won't bring back my baby and as for forgiving you I dont think that's possible
