Turning Table

Part 51

***I’d rather have an enemy who admits they hate me, instead of a friend who secretly put me down.***

🌹Liyana 🌹

" Liyana ima... Please "
Mangalisa held her hand but she yanked it away from him
Mangalisa:  I'm sorry that Ma had to act like that..."
Liyana: you are sorry? ....you left me with her when I was only 16th you knew what kind of a woman she is, you saved your own skin and left us with bills that we had to pay, I started working when I was 17years  to put the plate in our table, work twice  as hard to keep this house from being taken by the bank, and you come back after 10 years and you take all the credit!!"

Mangalisa: I'm sorry..."
Me: are you? ...you think a lousy R500 change you sent to us every month paid for of this, my mother's car, the house she lives in, the clothes on her back, God you even indulging in food and drinks paid by my hard-earned money and you come back with what? Sorry!!"
"Mangalisa come back son let her go, ..."
Liya mother called outstanding by the gate while the two siblings argued back and forth on the road, Liya mother was getting really mad, she had an image to protect and if Liya carries on like this people she invited into her house will gossip about her instead of the other way around.

Mangalisa: Liya ngiyakuzwa but just come inside and let us talk about this "
Liya: I'm done talking... I'm done sacrificing... As a big brother take care of your mother from now on..."
Mangalisa looked at her with a big
'O'  on his face, God knows he can't do half of the things his little sister did, which shows that Liya grew up very fast not just physically or age grew up but more like, she is matured, he still shocked at how she did all of this, fix the house take care of their mother all this year's, in his eyes, she was the strongest, courageous and selfless being he has ever met, but why was their mother so ungrateful?

He was about to speak bagging her to come inside the house,
but a car parked in front of them, and Liya jumped in the Uber taxi
Mangalisa: Liya... Liyana!! "
He screamed at her as Liya told the driver to drive...

The car parked outside her house at the very same time Ntsika car parked his car,
She breathe out loud, fixed her face, and jumped out,
Her eyes locked with Ntsika, she pressed her lips not trying to cry but her tears failed her, and she looked away,

Ntsika jumped out of his car, the fact that he can't run to her made him hate that his in this condition,
" Liyana"
She slowly walked towards him and he pulled her to him and hugged her when she was close enough,
Him: I'm so...so...sorry "
He felt bad really bad that he might be the reason why his love is crying like this,

Liya hugged Ntsika so tight that she wish he never to let her go, Lord Knows she need something to go right in her life for once, on the other hand, Ntsika felt that she was broken and needed him more than anything right now, and he only wishes to be her smile keeper from now on.
"Come with me," he said in her ear, Liya was reluctant this is the same man who broke his promise, but why does being in his arms feel so right?

A few seconds later, and Ntsika wet kissed on her neck, they finally  jumped inside the car and Ntsika drove off,
He held her hand throughout the drive, while Liya just placed her heard on the window and looked outside,

🌹Rossetta🌹

" I would like to introduce you to the lady that made this possible Ms. Rose "
Sandile said introducing Rose to the guys,
Rose scaned the guys she has never seen them before but somehow she trust Sandile that all transactions will go as planned,

This was the first poker game to be held in her club, she is scared but yet excited,  after the shake of hands and smile was done, Sandile pulled her to the side
Sandile: are you ok?"
Rose: I'm fine "
Sandile looked at her and nodded,
He does not believe her and her eyes are telling him something is wrong,
Him: Rose " he said rubbing his hand,
Her: I have a meeting to attend to..."

Sandile nodded, Rose was just one of kind, sexy, gorgeous, and intelligent she was the kind of woman he wish to spend his life with, strong and her fearless side intimidated at him but also turned him on at the same time if only she could just drop all this wall prevent her to enjoy life.

Rose: why looking at me like that "
Sandile: because you beautiful and you driving me crazy with your pull and push feeling "
Rose: what?"
Sandile: stop being such a traffic light changing colors to the wrong person "
Rose could not help but laugh

Sandile smile and decided to kiss her on the cheek and told her,
"I will see her later "
She smiled, more like blushed, and nodded.
" good luck on your game," she said to him
Sandile chuckled
Him: who cares about money when I have already worn. . ." he winked at her and she side smile walking out of the game room, leaving tight security guards on the door, she made her way to her office.

Butterflies filled her tummy when he thought about how sandile held her hand, how he kissed her cheek, there was something dangerously interesting with this man.

She shook he head and breath out loud.

"focus Rose!" She told herself.

She started working and a Few minutes later Samkelo walked into her office, Rosetta closed her laptop and looked at him,

Her: does she suspecting anything?"
Sam: she is too focus is getting herself  a cow to milk than the documents she is signing, ... Overall she doing a good job as a floor manager "
Rose: that good... She is no different from Ginger thinking that being boss you need to have a wealthy man by your side...stupid girl! "

Sam chuckled, today Rosetta  did a fifth transaction moving money from Mpume secrete account to the Botswana account, it may be too early to say this but comes to the end of the year Rose will be a very wealthy woman,

"Look  I need to be somewhere...take care of the club for me "
She said to Samkelo who was laughing to himself, he too realized how much they have made with Rose, Poker game it's going to be a very profitable side business, he thought to himself
Samkelo: Rose you do know that I'm your security guy here "
Rose: you are what I want you to be... You got the jet?"
Him: yes, and I added two extra guys to go with you "
Rose: I'm not the 1st lady to have so much security with me "
Him: mmmm I beg to differ, you sure I should not tag along "
Rose: I trust you with my money "

Sam: yet Ginger is your partner"
Rose laughed "don't believe everything you read on paper boy... " she said standing up and taking her things
Sam: what? "
Her: close this place up after the poker game, it's a bloody holiday let my stuff rest "

She walks out with Sam, 
Him: ok will do that "
When they walked downstairs Ginger looked at her and envy washed all over her, Rose was tall, beautiful and she wore her class on her sleeves, even with decades in jail she still came out turning heads,

" What happened to your face?"
Rose stopped and asked Ginger
Ginger: choreography went wrong "
Rose: mmm I see "
She said walking away
Ginger: and where are you going?"
Rose: out "
Ginger: out with who? "
Rose raised her eyebrow and slowly turned to look at her
" what's in it for you to know?"
Ginger: I'm just...."
Rose: you ask too many questions these days what's the sudden interest? "
Ginger: Rose come on now,  why are you always questioning everything I do?  "
Rose: no amount of makeup will hide the fact that you  have a blue eye and to make it worse you just lied through your teeth, take few days off and fix that shit!"
Rose said walked out she still does not trust her and only keeping her close to prove her suspicion, Oyama is presumed to be back in town and Ginger is over-inquisitive, comes to work late and now she got bruises on her face. .  . something is brewing under this waters.
