-MIHLALIKAZI MBANA
The bell goes off, I get off the couch and go open the door, Jay and his nanny are in the play room, Bandile is busy with his work in the study and I am sitting with my laptop in front of me. I place it on the table and get the door, it's mom
"Mamu'Mtwa"
I say hugging her, she giggles
"Hello my baby"
She says breaking the hug
"how are you Mah?"
I ask as we make our way to the lounge
"Good thanks my love and yourself? I didn't expect to find you home"
She says, just then Jay comes over to us
"Granny"
He says and runs to her, this child doesn't listen
"I see you want to go back to the hospital neh"
I say but he buries his head in the crook of mom's neck
"Let my grandson be"
She says and then sits down with him
"How are you my baby?"
She asks
"I'm good granny and you?"
He asks
"I am also good, ready to go?"
She asks him, I tell her nanny to go and fetch their things and she goes
"yeeeess"
He says excited, the twins are in Joburg visiting uncle Thando and will be back this weekend I think with uncle and his family
"How is Kitten?"
I ask her
"She's fine, she's beginning to be herself again"
She says and I smile
"That's good to hear, grandpa's death really took a toll on her"
I say and mom nods
"it sure did but she's getting there hey"
She says and I nod, Jay's nanny comes down with their stuff
"We should leave neh"
She says putting him down and getting up
"Arent you going to say bye to daddy?" I ask him and he giggles
"I'll go to him now"
He says and rushes off to the office, I sigh
"He's a kid, they are always in a hurry"
She says
"I don't want him landing in hospital again Mah, Jay needs to learn to walk instead of running"
I say and she chuckles
"you were as energetic when you were his age, let the child be"
She says, Bandile walks out with Jay in his arm
"Mrs Mtwa hi"
He greets, he and mom chat for a while
"let me walk you guys out"
I say and we all head out making small conversation on our way to the car.
"I'll see you mom"
I say
"I'll see you around neh, take care"
She says, I kiss her cheek and then kiss my son goodbye. "So we have the house all to ourselves tonight"
