Her wings unfolded

Chapter 35

Sufferings comes in different shapes and sizes.

I came back yesterday to Durban and I already miss the bundus. My face has been having a reaction for some time now , I have a rash and mom did take me to the doctor but the meds are only making it worse. So I'm now here with a swollen face that is covered in red , itchy rash and I'm having cramps on my abdomen so it might be my periods.

Mom : "Aibo! What's happening baby?" She screams , I try to open my eyes but they feel heavy and swollen.

Me : "Yini mah?" I ask as they pains gets more excruciating.

Mom : "Oh my god! You bleeding!" I feel dizzy and just as I was about to respond , lights out!

The constant beeping sound , that smell just confirms that I'm in hospital. I try to sit up but pain shoots right to my abdomen.

Mom : "Hey,  hey , hey!" She rushes to my side , I hadn't even noticed that she was in the room.

Me : "Water please."  I clear my throat. She helps me drink the water until I'm good then puts the glass on the side table.

Mom : "How are you feeling? We were worried?"

Me : "Is my face better?"

Mom : "No. The rash is turning into pimples." I nod.

Me : "Why am I here?"

Mom : "Baby ?"

Me : "Why am I here mama?" She looks away and stands up straight. The doctor walks in.

Doc : "Ms Ndlovu. How are you feeling?"

Me : "Okay. Doc what happened to me? Why am I here?"

Doc : "I'm sorry but you suffered a miscarriage and we still running some tests to find out what caused it." I nod.

Me : "When am I going home?"

Doc : "As soon as I'm sure that you are okay." I nod. He continues doing his thing and walks out.

Me : "Where's my baby?"

Mom : "With her father's mother."

Me : "Okay." A nurse walks in.

Nurse : "uhm mam , we would like for you to leave , visiting hours are way over."

Mom : "Bye baby , I love you. I'll come back later." I nod , she kisses my forehead then leaves. The nurse does her thing but she keeps on stealing glances at me.

Me : "is there a problem?" She smiles shyly.

Nurse : "No , not at all."

Me : "mmhh"

Nurse : "Please don't be offended but I think this rash on your face is someone's doing , ischitho lesi. I'm telling you because my dad is a healer and he usually deals with these kind of things. If you don't do something about it now and fast then it may be too late and it'll get worse then this."

Me : "Where do I start? The doctor won't even discharge me."

Nurse : "I'll get discharge forms for you and I'll sign them for you."

Me : "Won't you lose your job?" She smiles beautifully.

Nurse : "Don't worry about that. I'll be back." She walks out. I say a short prayer then sigh. She later returns with a pair of tracksuit.

Nurse : "wear this. We will walk out like normal people so they don't suspect a thing. You'll go first and I'll follow." I nod.

When we get to her Audi A6 , she plays some gospel music before driving off.

Me : "Are you sure we on the right track sisi?" I ask when i notice that shes driving towards Durban North. She smiles and nods.

Nurse : "Yes and please call me Aphiwe."

Me : "I'm Amyoli." I loved the name since Mkhulu told me about it. We finally get to this beautiful huge house and get out of the car. She locks it then as we about to walk to the door , a whistle goes off and she halts her steps so I stop waking too.

Me : "What's...." I'm cut off by a man shouting.

"BRING HER THIS SIDE!" 

Aphiwe : "Follow me." We walk around the house to the backyard where a rondavel is. A man with iBhayi ,comes out and sprinkles me with water and that's the last thing i remember.
