Snothando's pov:
Hello beautiful people,I am Snothando Gumede. I am 25 and I'm an international soccer player,I also have my own sports brand,Gumede is the name. I have a sort-of girlfriend,Khloe Hallman. She's a model and she's super fit,hell I'm lucky to have her but she's just not the one for me. I'm tired of always eating takeaways when I'm with her. I'm currently at home,in Newcastle. I've been spending a lot of time in South Africa,well part of it is because of my mom being sick and well the other part is I just missed home...okay,I'm lying. I want Siyamu back
"Same bed but it feels just a little bit bigger now
Our song on the radio but it don't sound the same
When our friends talk about you,all it does is just tear me down
Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name
It all just sounds like ooh oooh ooh
Mmh too young,too dumb to realise that I should've bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should've gave you all my hours
When I had the chance
Take you to every party cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby's dancing but she's dancing with another man
My pride,my ego,my needs and my selfish ways
Caused the good, strong women like you to walk out my life
Now I'll never,never get to clean up the mess I made
Ohho
And that haunts me everytime I close my eyes
It all just sounds like ohh ohhh oooh
Mmmh too young, too dumb to realise that I should've bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should've gave you all my hours,when I had the chance
Take you to every party cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby's dancing but she's dancing with another man
Although it hurts,I'll be the first to say that I was wrong
Oh I know I'm probably much too late
To try and apologize for my mistakes but I just want you to know I hope he buys you flowers
I hope he holds your hand
Give you all his hours,when he has the chance
Take you to every party,cause I remember how much you loved to dance
Do all the things I should've done when I was your man
Do all the things I should've done when I was your man"
Bruno Mars - when I was your man,blasts through my car speakers as I park my car infront of my parents house. My home. My windows are dimmed but I'm sure everyone knows that I'm back. I lock the doors of my black Lamborghini Aventador roadster. I put my head on the steering wheel and I cry like I've never cried before. It's been three weeks since we've talked. Ever since I found out she was pregnant, I've told myself to stay away because she seems to be serious about her gay fucker. She wouldn't just get pregnant for anyone but she did say she didn't know. *You're confused man* my subconscious mocks.its been 15 minutes since I've gotten here but I'm still on her Instagram page,stalking her. She hasn't posted since a week ago when she posted a picture of her in hospital telling everyone that she's fine now and she thanks them for all the prayers.
After that she went MIA. She was last seen a week ago on WhatsApp. *Maybe her boyfriend took her out of the country* here we go again,my subconscious and mocking me. My eyes are red and puffy now from all the crying. That is supposed to be me taking her to Dubai,Paris and Lagos. I spot a picture of her in a blue bikini. She looks damn fine. A knock on my window startles me. I wipe my eyes and roll down the window. It's my little brother,Mpilo.
"Ntwana ugrend?(dude are you okay?)" he asks,I guess it's visible that I've been crying. I just nod.
"Can you take these plastics at the back,I'm coming back now now. I want to get mom a present" I say and he takes the plastics at the back.
"Wait for me,I'm coming with you" he shouts running in the house. He's 22 but he acts like a child,mmh I wonder how he has girlfriends. He comes back as I start the ignition. He hops in and he's about to say something when my phone rings. I check the caller ID but it's a Private number. I contemplate on answering it or not. I end up answering it and I forgot that it's connected to my car radio.
"Hello" I say
"Mfethu" he says and I can't get more annoyed. Okay let me control myself
"Ufunani?(what do you want?)"
"I didn't call to fight you,I need you to help me so we can both get what we want"
"And how do you expect me to help you?"
"Siyamthanda is missing,it's been a week"
Shock takes over me, and then anxiety. Who could've taken her?why did they take her?is she okay?is she hurt?"so why are you telling me?aren't you her boyfriend?"
"That's the thing I have a problem with, whoever took her is my enemy and whoever they are is really good at covering their tracks. My guys can't find anything so I need your guys to see if they can find anything. I know you're not a gangster but I know you have securities and IT guys just incase you need them. Why am I doing this?I know you love Siyamu and I also want to break up with her because I want to come out of the closet"
"What do you mean come out of the closet?" I say acting confused
"Oh cut the act. I know you know I'm gay"
"You used her" I hiss
"I had no other choice,she was the perfect target" I laugh hysterically. If I was a man of terror, I would've long killed this bitch. He disgusts me
"I'll help you and I'm not doing this for you" I tell him as a matter of fact
"Oh trust me,I know. Otherwise I'd do some dangerous stuff to you" his voice has changed. Am I making him horny?what the actual fuck?I end the call and Mpilo looks at me
"Is that why you were crying?" he asks. He's nosy
"Why was I crying?" I ask him confused,I don't know what he's talking about
"You still love her" he says and he seems to be proud of himself when I find myself speechless
"It's just that I dated her for a long time and I know she would've done the same for me" I lie through my teeth
"Brother,if you don't change, she'll never come back. You're lying to me your own brother,how will she trust you if you keep on lying? Stop bad habits now" he says and I take back saying he's a child. He's very wise,why am I even lying?she hates that
"I'm older,you don't get to give the good advice" I say and we both laugh. I call my IT guy
"Sizwe, I need you to find me trails of evidence about Siyamu's kidnapping. We have to search her phone, apartment and where she was last seen"
"I hear you boss so is she the new madam?" he asks and I chuckle
"If you want Khloe to eat us all and spit us out because we're not in her diet" Mpilo says and we're all laughing our asses off. He's right though,she eats strictly on her diet. I miss Siyamu,a lot actually. Her warm hugs and her random kisses. Whoever took her will suffer.
Next on Chapter 41:
Can Thandolwethu and Snothando work together to find Siyamu?
