People do not die from suicide,they die from sadness ~anonymous
Siyamu's pov:
Under the blue sky,it's a sunny day and guess where I'll be djaying?at the beach, yes finally. It's an all white beach party sponsored by Castle Lager. The tickets were R350 for general and R600 for VIP. We're in Eastern Cape for the weekend. I wear a white open back,v-neck,one piece swimming costume pairing it with white,transparent flowy pants. I also wear my white push in's from Cotton On. My nipples are such show offs. I did my nails yesterday and now they're white designed with black flowers. I tie my straight back into a bun,it's black in colour and damn it looks good. No make up today,I blantly refused when Sandile was trying to convince me. The tattoo of my dad on my back,out on full display. I miss him sometimes you know,22 years later and I can still feel the pain.
When we arrive at the beach called Nobuntu beach,I take pictures in the water,on the sand. I love nature. Sandile joins my little photoshoot. I didn't force him by the way,lol. Okay why am I getting wet before my gig?weird I know. Some people ask to take pictures with me and I do. I go back to our work car and mix Ice Tropez with Hennessy,lol I wanna drink my problems away. It's nice though. After mixing it,in it goes into my water bottle which I use to make people think I'm drinking water. Smart right?I know,thank you. I take my 'water bottle',Sandile and the guards escort me to stage. They set everything up for me which is nice. My job is really hard,people think you just get up and go touch things and make 10k but it's not like that. You have to practice,study each crowd and you have to smile at the camera even if you're not in the mood. Also it's hard being a woman in our industry because there's a lot of males and most managers are males. Some Dj's who are women only made it because the managers saw "beauty" in them and their actions weren't genuine. With me,Sandile was also like that at first but now he treats me like his little sister. He just saw a brat that will make him money
"Can you feeeeel ittttt!?" the amapiano song beams through the speakers
"Yeeeeeeboooooo!!!" the crowd responds. Then the beat drops and it resurfaces again louder and better than the last second. This goes on for 4 hours with no break. I want to pee so bad now,all the alcohol that I've been drinking isn't doing me any justice. As I get off stage with the help of my guards again,Sandile walks towards us with the host. Anthony Mthiyane. He's such a fine young gentleman.
"Our very own DJ Superwoman" he comments as we hug. I giggle politely because you know the girls that laugh like a generator?yes,I'm one of them
"Hello to you too Anthony" I say with a smirk
"How are you?oh damn. I really just wanted to thank you for coming through today,four hours ain't no man's joke. Let me do this before we get any further" he says typing on his phone. After a while I receive a notification. '+R17500 into savings account. Avail:R14 456780.Ref: Anthony Mthiyane'
"Thank you once again,it truly is a pleasure to be here and to perform. The crowd was...amazing!" we laugh because everyone knows I just love Xhosa people with their drama
"The dramatics. Anyways please do sit down in the VIP guys, it's still going to be a fun night" he says leading us to the VIP area. We get there and it's an open area which is a bit secluded from the general section but the view here is breathtaking. The music is also loud this side so I won't have a problem. Sandile and I find a table,I rush off to the bathroom because oh well me being me. As I'm walking back I spot a familiar face,uThapelo, Thando's best friend. I walk right past their table acting as if I don't see my man with his big head. okay well not my man but it's Ndo. I've missed him so much. Back at our table,Buhle has arrived and they're kissing here like nobody is in the room
"Uhm hello to you too Buhlebendalo" I say after clearing my throat dramatically.
"Hey best,I've missed you so much" she says before jumping up to hug me and kiss my cheek. Weird,I know but she's my best friend so what will I say? Ayibo what's that on her finger?I grab her hand before she sits down again,a diamond ring just sitting there.
