I got back home with mom and Sbonelo, there's a guy who also insisted on coming along with us. Honestly I'm so confused that I forgot things that happened two years ago ? We sat on the dinner table and there was too much silence.
Lyric : I heard you got engaged Sbonelo, congrats.
Sbonelo : it's not a big deal.
Lyric : oww come on, I hope I'm invited to the wedding.
Sbonelo : ( smiles uncomfortably)
Lyric : ( to Desire) thank for helping my mother while I was in a comma. I heard that you and I are in a rough patch and I hope we can still be good friends.
Desire : ( holds her hand ) don't worry about it.
* what's that? The feeling , it's so deep, his touch just sent a shiver... *
Lyric : ( moves her hand away) thank you.
Ms. Khumalo : anyone ready for desert ?
Lyric : please!!! ( Ms. Khumalo went to the kitchen) uhm mom, how did my registration to Bramm go? Did they send something?
Ms. Khumalo : baby, you were accepted and you were there for three months now.
Lyric : really, Ohhh, I didn't know.
Ma. Khumalo : This is gonna be hard baby but know that mom is with you.
Lyric : look Mah, I'm fine.... This is just another milestone.
Sbonelo : ( looking at his phone) I have to go mama, I'm sorry but duty calls.
Lyric : ohkay babas, don't be late Babe.
Sbonelo : what?
Lyric : don't be home late, I'll wait up for you.
* Ms. Khumalo encouraged Sbonelo to play along.)
Sbonelo : ohkay babe see you later...
Lyric : Hawu manje vele uzohamba kanjalo nje? Without a kiss babe?
Sbonelo : Uhm...
Lyric : a baby kiss won't hurt babe. ( he kisses her then leaves.) mom do we still get the desert ?
Ms. Khumalo : lemme go and prepare it.
* she leaves *
Desire : your friends from Bramm wanna see you ,to check if you are alright.
Lyric : I have friends?
Desire : you are quite popular in Bramm.
Lyric : wow, why?
Desire : you are hott, you scored the hott guy there then beat up his ex girlfriend.
Lyric : ( confused ) confidence overload, I don't think I could really do that.
Desire : you did... You did so many incredible things there. You are so amazing
Lyric : thank you.
Ms. Khumalo : there we go, uhm I'm gonna prepare Mr. Molapo's room.
Desire : I'm gonna take a shower.
Both mom and Desire went up stairs and I just watched TV while eating mom's desert. I drifted off on the couch and shit my dream set off something bad. I saw him Desire holding me to his arms and the feeling crowded my thoughts, the next thing I remember I was fighting someone, then I was drowning.
Lyric : ( mumbling ) arg! Ahhh!!! Huh! Ahhh... Mmmm, help!!!
Desire : hey hey, hey? It's ohkay...
I snapped out and I saw him, I remember him but only partly.
Desire : you are safe , you ohkay Now, I'm right here.
Ms. Khumalo : is she okay?
Lyric : I'm fine mom, you can go back to bed.
Ms. Khumalo : Kay baby... ( she went back upstairs)
Desire : are you okay?
Lyric : ( looks down ) it pains my head to remember... I remember you, I remember you partly. I remember your touch, smell, laugh but there's more. It hurts to remember.
Desire : take it one day at a time.
Lyric : why can't I remember? Why?
Tears filled my eyes as I knew that if I tried harder I wouldn't like what I will see.
Desire : here are some pills to ease the pain.
Lyric : I'm fine for real though.
Desire : tommorow, I wanna show you something.
Lyric : can't you show me now?
Desire : you need to rest, sleep now.
I drifted off in his arms. The next morning I woke up in my bed then I took a shower, the steam and the hot water shiver down my body and the feeling of his touch attack my mind. He plays with his fingers on my body , cubs my breast and I could feel his breathing on my neck ... Shit the water is too hot!
Ms. Khumalo : is everything okay there?
Lyric : yes mom, I'm perfectly fine.
Ms. Khumalo : okay breakfast is ready and Desire wants to take you to see your friends.
Lyric : I'll be down in a sec.
Ms. Khumalo : okay baby.
I got dressed in sweatpants and a baggie shirt. After breakfast Desire and I left and in the car no one says a word to the other, I decided to play a song and I danced along trying to make it vibe but he's just numb.
Lyric : come on hype me!
Desire : I'm driving, last thing I need is another accident.
Lyric : what do you mean.
Desire : nothing I'm sorry
Lyric : why are you apologizing?
Desire : it's nothing for real ( he smiles at me) here we are
He parks in front of the woods , it looks familiar and I feel some connection with the place.
Desire : do you remember ?
Lyric : I don't know. Why are we here?
Desire : this is where you agreed to be my girl.
Lyric : you and I dated?
Desire : more like cheated, I can't tell you... You have to remember. Come with me...
I follow him deep in the woods in the middle of no where and I still don't remember, now getting scared...
Lyric : ohkay is this where you kill me?
Desire : I guess you will never change, that's what you said the first time we got here.
Lyric : I don't feel safe anymore.
Desire : (holds my hand) trust me...
I let him control the moment and followed him till we reached our destination. When we got there we weren't alone, a bunch of unfamiliar faces were there.
Neli : Ahhhh surprise!
Everyone screamed when they saw me and that really gave me a serious headache. As a matter of fact I do remember that noise but I can't picture it. I felt weak for a couple of minutes but I gathered myself to meet these people.
Lyric : what's going on here?
Neli : I'm your flatmate Neli, we were almost besties.
Lyric : bet we were
Jade : I'm Jade and I don't wanna be here.
Beck : she missed you so much but she'll never say it. I'm Beck Jade's boyfriend also a friend to you.
A lot of them introduced themselves and I loved their vibe but I still can't recall who's who.
