***Nontuthuzelo Zulu***

She found him asleep on his arm. Shame he was really tired, she thinks to herself.

He hasn't even taken a shower yet, she went out a little while to go fix his food.

"Banzi." She sat by his feet and moved him gently. He opened his eyes and looked at her.

His eyes had turned red.

"Wake up my love and eat something." He massaged her arm.

"Woza la mama." He pulled her face down to his and kissed her gently.

He just woke up from a deep sleep, what is this now? He deepens the kiss by pull her closer to his body. She climbs on top of him and her thighs lock him in.

"Ongipha kancane." He touches the heaven between her thighs and she laughs.

"Uvuka nje?"

"Yes please mama."

She won't deprive him of what he paid for.

He ate the velvet cake, had his shower and got some proper food. He is now a happy man and he is lying on his stomach and she is giving him a back massage. He's half asleep and the goodness of her magical hands on his back aren't making it easier for him to stay awake.

"What tired you out so much my love?"

"I didn't get a wink of sleep last night." At least he's still talking.

It's hard to articulate what he is saying because he's half asleep, but she hears him.

"Why?"

"Insomnia."

"Since when do you have insomnia?"

"I don't know mama, but I stayed up with my eyes open the whole night."

"Mmmh." She doesn't believe anything he just said.

"I've been thinking yazi Zulu."

"Mmmh, usufunani wakwami." She chuckles nervously and continues to massage his back.

He moans out in pleasure and only then does she speak.

"We never had a white wedding, and you promised me years ago that we would have one."

His silence spoke a thousand words.

"Zulu?"

"MaMzobe I have a lot going on. Angithi uwe lo okade engibelesele ngokuthola umka Langalethu, on the other hand I have to deal with Mandlenkosi and his tantrums, you are also pregnant, and I also have council, I don't have time for weddings. You know that if I do something for you, I also have to do it for MaGumede." She sighed and got off his back. He sat up and his joints popped and cracked.

"Is it money problems?" she looks sad, and he doesn't like that?

"No, money is never a problem sthandwa sami, it's time for planning a wedding, I don't have that time." She sulked.

"I'll plan it myself Zulu, please my love. I've always wanted a white wedding."

"The timing sthandwa sami, it's off."

Her eyes immediately filled with tears. This is not the part he missed about pregnancy. Oh goodness.

"Ungakhali mama. Look, we'll talk to MaGumede, if she agrees, then you can plan your wedding. But if she doesn't want it, then it's not happening."
