Be who you needed when you were younger ~unknown
Siyamu's pov:
"So what we get drunk!?so what we smoke weed!? we're just having fun,we don't care who sees! So what we go out?that's how it's supposed to be! Living young and wild and freeeee" we sing our voices out to Wiz Khalifa's song. He suddenly stops the car on the side of the road and just below lies a beautiful river. I don't know where we are because someone said it's a surprise,knowing very well I hate surprises. The boards I've been seeing don't add up,surely it's a place I've never been to before
"Haa my boyfriend is a serial killer and he's about to throw me into the river" I clap my hands once making Thando burst out in laughter
"Sthandwa sami..." he carries on laughing,I end up joining in, realising how stupid I can be sometimes "can you please stop dude,ngiphethwe isisu manje ngi busy ngihlekana nawe (my stomach aches now I'm busy laughing at you)"
"Serves you right for getting a girlfriend like me" I state laughing. He jumps out and jogs over to my side to open my door. What a gentleman. He holds my hand as I make my way out. I stand on the road,holding onto the railing. I'm scared of heights sometimes,lol. He fiddles with something in the backseat of his Porsche. Remember the one I took with me?yes that one. He comes back with a bouquet of white roses with papers all around. When he reaches me I notice that it's not just papers,it's papers with Mandela's face on them. I smile admiring the sight infront of me
"These are for you" he says handing them to me. I thank him with a kiss "let me take pictures of you" he suggests. I can see our bodyguards at the corner of my eye. I pose infront of his car as he takes pictures of me. After trying to find the right angle and him making silly jokes just so I could smile. After 10 minutes or so, I end up taking pictures with him. Some hiding his face and most of his body,ughhh the life of a celebrity. I'm not even going to post him but yeah yeah, doesn't matter. We head back inside the car when we decide the pictures are enough. The road trip continues with us singing and sharing silly jokes,with random kisses in between. We stop for food at Timmy's,I don't even know where this is cause I was sleeping half of the drive. After eating we go grocery shopping for a few things we'll need as Thando said. Giving me a clue that where we are going,we have to self cater. After the grocery shopping,we head back on the road again. I doze off again
I'm woken up by someone shaking me lightly. I rub the sleep off my eyes and immediately stop when I remember I've got makeup on. Throughout this whole trip I think I slept for more than half of the trip. My eyes are met by a beautiful sight of a big gate written in gold, 'Royal Home Inn'. Woah woah woah,is this the place built by the king of the Zulu nation?the place that costs an arm and a leg.
"Wow" I murmur under my breath. The car comes to a halt. He takes out our suitcases and I take the two plastic bags with food inside.
"Baby leave those plastics, I'll fetch them later" he says
"No it's fine,they're not even that heavy"
"Siyamthanda I said leave them!" he snaps,scaring the shit out of me. I even flinch. A guard comes running towards us
"Good afternoon,do you guys need any help with your bags" he asks me because Thando is already on an 'important' phone call
"Yes please" I smile back at the guard and he whistles loudly signalling the other guard. He also comes running and takes the suitcases that Thando is carrying. He gives the poor boy a deadly stare. We make our way in and I'm in awe, I haven't even gotten to the room,we're still at reception. The golden chandeliers hanging from the mirror glass ceiling catches me by surprise. This place is to die for. We check in and make our way to our room,I'm guessing. Thando unlocks and the boys put the suitcases and plastic bags inside. I take out R300 for each boy and give it to them after thanking them. They smile as they walk away,I'm happy I could make someone happy. Thando is on another phone call so I decide to take a tour of this place on my own. The bedroom has a queen sized bed with white bedding. The closets are white and the handles are gold. I walk further to find a kitchen. There is a 4 plated flat stove,the kitchen island is made of marble. A big fridge and freezer. There are 6 highchairs around the kitchen island. I walk to the sliding door and there's a cat sitting outside licking itself clean. I'm scared of cats but they're so cute. Why do people even use these creatures to do witchcraft?I take a picture of it and lock the sliding door while closing the curtain. The bathroom is so spacious,there's a glass shower,a toilet and a bath tub which also turns into a jacuzzi. Nice. I walk back to the bedroom,slowly still admiring this place. When I get back to the bedroom Thando is on the phone,with his back towards me
"Didn't you get arrested just yesterday?" he whispers so I decided to listen a little longer. Don't look at me like that
"No! The cops are on our tail. I said the last batch must wait!" he whisper shouts. He listens before sighing "you know what?I'm tired of this,this life!I just want to be normal. I just want to be happy. Don't you understand?I never wanted this in the first place... alright...sharp,bye" I assume he has dropped the call. He fiddles with his phone so I hug him from behind. He turns around to face me and he looks so tired. You can't miss his small eyes and the dark bags under them. He hugs me back,tighter than I did.
"Let's go to bed,you must be tired" I say and he doesn't respond, instead he starts taking off his clothes. I take off mine too,making sure to look sexy enough as I'm only in my underwear. I switch off all the lights leaving on our side lamps. He is already in bed,sitting upright and busy with his phone. Lord if he is talking to another girl,may he trip,fall and lose all his teeth. I get into the bed,sitting just like him
"Uhhh baby are you okay?" I ask because I'm worried about him. He's acting weird
"Look I-"
"Look I'm-" we say simultaneously and laugh
"You go first" he says. I sigh
"I just wanted you to know that whatever you're going through,I'll always be here okay?you don't have to talk about it if you don't want to"
"No sthandwa sami I'm sorry. Please just listen and don't interrupt me okay?" I nod,it's as if he knew I was about to open my mouth and say something " I'm sorry,all of it is my fault" he stares at his hands. I sit ontop of him,with both his legs under me. You might find this weird, we're both half naked but we're so comfortable with each other "I'm so tired,I'm tired of this life. The guns,the bodyguards,the enemies?having to always look over your shoulder. I hate it but I hate it more because I never chose it. My dad chose this life for me,this is not who I am!fuck!" he starts sniffing. I wipe his falling tears. This sight breaks my heart,I don't think I've ever seen him cry "words fail to show how sorry I am. I know this weekend was supposed to be about you but I just can't hold it in anymore. It hurts and I'm so mad at my dad. If I wasn't in this business,you wouldn't have gotten into an accident. We wouldn't have lost uXolani noh Unathi. Our babies would be running around right now. It's all my fault!from the first time dad made me hold a gun I should've stood my ground. I'm so sorry for making your life miserable sthandwa sami,all I've ever brought you was tears, physical and emotional scars and bad luck. If it wasn't for my dad, we'd be happy with our kids. I failed you,I failed as a father and I have failed as a man. I'm sorry" he carries on sobbing and I pull him closer to my chest. This goes on for five more minutes. I give him a tight hug along with a lot of kisses. He smiles weakly and now his eyes are worse. I get a towel to wipe my chest while he washes his face and drys it. We go back to bed with me being the big spoon for once in my life. He's sleeping so peacefully now and I've lost sleep because I was sleeping throughout the whole trip. Okay damn,I'm pressed now. I wanna pee so bad but I don't want to disturb his peaceful sleep cause he's tired. I gently remove my arm under his big body and tip toe to the bathroom. I urinate and it feels so gooooood. I walk back to the bed when I'm done and get the shock of my life. Thando is actually sitting up, yawning here and there
"Baby you should be asleep" I say getting in the same position we were in before
"I wanted to make sure you were alright" that's so sweet of him. I watch him sleep and smile,I wonder what I did to deserve such a beautiful man. Oh yes,he's beautiful and he's mine...all mine.
