"ITS A NO FROM US." THESE WERE MY DLOZIS RESPONDING TO MY ATTEMPT AT LEAVING LEFEHLO IN A WEEK.
I actually had muchhhh bigger problems than umjolo wami, my problems were bigger than the job or the clothes I had left behind in the most selfish way badimo highlighted that when they decided to drop everything and everyone(including myself) just to get me ephehlweni.
Abo gobela bami were Godsent angels not even trying to be. Whatever contracts our souls had signed or whatever discussions the underground gang had about me to them, they stood to their word a hundred percent. To be there for me, to pillar me, to nurture me, to water me, to help me grow and heal and find the peace from the broken pieces. I think I was the most rebellious of the group bengithwasa nayo and I was also the youngest because umama shouted my name more than that of anyone else who was there. EVERYDAY, ALLDAY! lol it was really adorable that I was the last born of a hugeee family of over thirty, but abo dade bengithwasa nabo same round bebay3(including my girlfriend) So this made partnering up very easy for us(two for two vibes).
I was something like a week and a half in now and I hadn't done much. My transition was a little more complicated so I was given some leniency to settle in before gogo duties began. I was introduced to the rest of the mpande, in the order of the hierarchy. From abo Mkhulu, to abo Baba, to abo Makhosi all the way to abo Gogo the gogos who were a generation before us, then us the last generation at that time. We were the 2000s of the mpande guys, legit we were too cool!
I was then introduced to some ground rules like how you can only speak on your knees uma uwu gogo, taught about humility, the highlight of the entire talk for me was that I had to refer to my girlfriend as gogo and only speak to her when on my knees and with humility. Ukuzithoba was not my strongest point guys, inkane yami beyiphuma ngamakhala. I didn't understand how I was to do all of this. But guys indaba was my girlfriend, as abo gogo we slept in an order of hierarchy, from the oldest gogo to the young... My girlfriend was the oldest of our group and me the youngest so she slept at the end of the room
