#Continuation of 28!
We were preparing for bed with all my sisters right after getting the kids to bed in their own room. We were talking about mama , imitating what she used to do or say.
Khanya : "Nokukhanya can you see my glow?indoda yami iyangithanda phela mina." We laugh.
Zamo : "Cha kodwa nami ngazala , buka umuhle kanjan! And it's all thanks your lovely mother."
Ndabe : "No I miss my mom! She was the best mother."
Muhle : "We all do. We should visit her grave altogether someday."
Dad : "They'd be a great idea." He said walking in.
Me : "When can we go then?"
Khanyi : "I think since we already here , we can drive there the day after the negotiations." We all agree. Dad kisses all of us and bids goodnight before walking out. We also get in the covers and sleep well the others are on their phones calling their husbands. My phone rings and it's Kabelo , I try standing to go talk in the bathroom but the twins make me sit.
**********
Me : "Hello."Kabelo : "Sthandwa sami. I miss you so much , I'm about to cry now serious." I giggle.
Me : "let's video-call tomorrow morning"
Kabelo : "Or you can come outside for a few minutes nyana."
Me : "Outside where?"
Kabelo : "I'm three houses down the road , come I'll wait for you by gate cause I know you scared."
Me : "Give me a few minutes then."
Kabelo : "I love you." He hangs up leaving me blushing.
*********************
I get up from the bed and wear my robe and sleepers.
Khanya : "Where are you going?"
Me : "Outside , I'll be back just now. Please cover for me if they ask." She nods , I give her a thumbs up and walk out. I exit through the kitchen quietly the go outside the small gate. I look on both sides of the road but I don't see him but I see his car so I start walking towards it and he just comes out behind the small plant.
Me : "Baby! You scared me."
Kabelo : "Ngiyaxolisa sthandwa sami." He grabs my arm , making me collide with his chest then he holds me tight for a few minutes. We break the hug and walk to his car , we seat at the backseat cuddling.
Me : Baby. Thank you so much. I love my ring." I say lifting my head to look at his face.
Kabelo : "I knew you would mawezingane." He kisses my neck.
Me : "Cheesy!"
Kabelo : "Hey! You one this cheesy ass of mine. How is my baby treating you?" He asks rubbing my stomach.
Me : "So far we good. "
Kabelo : "Next week is our appointment." I roll my eyes cause he's always reminding me.
Me : "I know. I missed you so much." I peck his lips then we start being all over each other. He switches the car lights off then makes me straddle him which excites me. We continue kissing and I start grinding on him and he's brushing my thighs. I reach for his belt and he pulls back.
Kabelo : "Woah! Babe I don't think this is the place or time to so this." He says placing me back on the seat. He has to be joking right now! His face softens more when he sees my disappointment.
Kabelo : "Tomorrow after the negotiations , I'll be here and I'll worn you out. You have to be resting now."
Me : "Okay , I'll see you tomorrow then." We kiss then he walks me to the gate and once I'm inside the yard he jogs down to his car. I then heard it driving off. I tiptoe inside
Dad : "Landokuhle , ask to be excused. Don't sneak around like some thief here! Go to sleep , you straining my grandchild." I gulp and just go to the kitchen. I make a quick sandwich and eat it fast then eat the yogurt I found in the fridge , they'll have to forgive me. After eating I put the dishes in the sink then go up to the room.
