Life Is Just Not Kind - Final Book

Chapter 66

-BAYANDA TSHAWE

I watch the news and the consequences of my actions hit me harder than I ever thought they would. It wasn't supposed to end up like this. When Mihlali left my brother was crushed, it took a while for him to move on but even then he never fully moved on because his heart was always with Mihlali. As much as I can be a jerk and the biggest asshole there is I love my brother and I would do anything and everything to return the amount of love he has shown me and protection from over the years. Yes I arranged everything with Unathi but after seeing how happy my brother was I couldn't do it and the watch Hlali sent over was a cherry ontop, I rushed out calling Unathi to pull out of the plan but she didn't answer my calls, I tried making peace with Mihlali because I realised that I was wrong for wanting to destroy them after everything she has done for him leading up to their wedding. I regret what I did and I have lived to regret it for as long as I can remember, Isenathi was not supposed to find out the way she did. So many times I wanted to tell her but I could never bring myself to tell her, believe it or not I have actually fallen in love with the young beautiful Mtwa twin. I never meant to hurt her like this, I never meant to hurt anyone the way I did and to learn that my niece and nephew's lives are in danger because of my stupidness and foolishness hurts me a lot. I never meant for things to get this far.

"I hope you happy"

Bakho says walking in, his eyes are red. The look on his face reminds me of the day I learnt of my father's passing, he was the one that broke the news to me so I can't help thinking the worst possible scenario

"How are they Bakho?"

I ask switching the tv off

"If you weren't already on a hospital bed I would kill you"

He says, mom storms in after him and slaps me. As if Biko didn't do a lot damage, Biko really fucked me up hey.

"Ma..."

I don't even finish my sentence when she throws in another slap and then another one and another slap crying and all I can do is apologise.

"You took my son away from me for your own selfishness. My grandchildren Bayanda!"

She says in between her tears hitting me until Lukho pulls her back and turns her to her and hugs her tightly comforting her

"I hope you happy Bayanda. I will never forgive you for what you did!"

He says and walks out, judging by the way they are reacting I'm afraid it's more than just a car accident, they gone

"Mama I'm sorry"

I say with tears rolling down my cheeks

"You killed them"

She says with sobs

"all he ever did was love you, bail you out when you messed up and this is how you go on and repay him? By killing him and his children. I never want to see you again. I c..."

She trails off struggling to breathe

"Mama breathe"

Lukho pleads

"I think she's having a heart attack"

I say to Lukho and press a button by my bed

"Mama breathe"

She says slowly placing her on the chair, she can't breathe. I don't think I could ever forgive myself for this. I lost my brother, my nephew and my niece all in one day, Mihlali will never forgive me for this and now I just caused my mother a heart attack. A nurse walks in

"She's having a heart attack. She has a heart problem"

I say as soon as she walks in, she rushes out and then comes in with a bed to place my mom in and then they rush her out. Lukho walks up to the door and turns to look at me
