Amile The Queen

Chapter Eleven

***Yonela Mzulwini***

She may be petty, and a person that let's her anger control her, but she has a conscious, and right now, it's feeling guilty. Siya is not making it any bearable for her.

"I never said I want you to fight my battles Yoni, I didn't ask you!" Siya shouted

"Don't shout at me." She was holding her head in panic.

"No, I will shout if I want to, I will scream at you if I want. Entlek, you piss me off." He banged the table.

"I was angry Siya."

"I don't care about your anger. She's your friend, and she's right, you should have had her back. What you did, it really disappointed me. It was low of you and I'm not proud of it, I'm not proud to call you my sister right now."

His words are often hurtful, especially when he's mad. Their mother always tells him not to speak when he is mad, he must calm down first, otherwise he says things he will regret, and most of the time, he doesn't apologize for it later.

"Siyabonga!" their mother intervened. The loud shouting from their game room was enough to send her from the bottom of the stairs to where they were.

"I told you to stop shouting at your sister." She says walking into the room, apprehension written on her face.

"Your child is uncontrollable, she has no morals." She interrupted him.

"Hhayi hhayi Siyabonga, yintoni ngawe!?"(Siyabonga what is wrong with you?) Yonela isn't even crying now, she's just sitting here taking whatever she gets. Deep down she knows she's to blame.

"When Amile commits suicide for this, you will be to blame, her death will be on your hands." she looked down in shame.

He left the room and left her and her mother to comfort each other.

"What is he angry about, what did you do to him?"

Siyabonga isn't a terrible person, and although he has anger issues, as he grew up, he learned to control it, but when he is pushed to the edge, he explodes, that's what happened with him now.

"Amile broke up with him." Her mom frowned.

"So why is he shouting at you?"

"Because I leaked her nudes." She mumbled. Her mom didn't catch what she said, only to her frustration.

"Speak up Yonela, andikuva mna." (I can't hear you.)

"I leaked her nudes." Her mother's eyes widened. She doesn't know which part scares her the most, the fact that these children are already taking nudes and sending them to boyfriends, or the liver of her own seed.

"Ubolile mntanami, I won't lie to you." (you are rotten my child.) She buried her head in her hands.

"I know mama."

"What did you do that for?"

"I was angry, I still am mama, at her. For making Siya an idiot and for forgetting about me."

"First of all, Siya is old enough, he is more than capable of deciding for himself what he wants to do, you had no right to be involved like that in their relationship. Why was it so easy for you to ruin something you have built for years with Amile?"

"She ruined the plan mama, she broke up with Siya, we were going to be real sisters."

"Yonela it's time for you to grow up now and start realizing that life is not all roses and rainbows. Khipha lengqodo yakho yokuba spoiled, life is not always about you, and it's not always going to work out the way that you want it." She was on the verge of tears.
