Khauhelo Mohato
Johannesburg,South Africa.

"Have you told him yet?"My Bestfriend questions and I shake my head no.

"He doesn't need to know"She eyes me up and down before clapping her hands together.

"That's being selfish"she states.

"Eish you won't understand so let's drop the topic".

"Khauhelo we aren't going to drop this topic until you make me understand why you can't tell him about your pregnancy" She semi-shouts not wanting to wake Bukhosi up

"You taking his side already"i say and she looks at me in disbelief,"I'm not taking anyone's side I know his my brother in-law but I'm standing up for him as a person what you're doing is wrong nana he deserves to know"She explains making my blood start to boil

"Boikarabelo you starting to get on my last nerve,real talk didn't you think i deserved to know that Langa has a wife and two kids?"I ask and she remains quiet

"Exactly so the same way he didn't think I deserved to know that he was married is the way I don't want him to know about this child"

"It's two different things"She whispers making me shake my head

"I don't want to be known as 'the girlie who destroyed the Zulu family/homewrecker"i say my voice breaking mid-way she shakes her head no

"He loves you nana"she says squeezing my tigh

"Sure Boikarabelo sure"i say and she lets out a sigh

"Enough about this!can we go get something to eat?"she nods

I go upstairs to freshen up while Boikarabelo woke up Bukhosibemvelo.
I changed into a sweatpants and an oversized t-shirt with white and black dunks.

"Hey mama"Bukhosi greets me with a hug as I reached the last staircase.She rubs my stamoch then says;"Hey baby"

-I haven't even told her about it.

"Baby?"Boikarabelo questions and Khosi nods showing off her toothless smile,"Small baby in mommy's tum tum"she says rubbing my stamoch again.

I let out a small chuckle.

"Theres no baby Khosi"I state and she shakes her head before saying,"There is a baby mama,I-you look like uncle Sanele's wife"

-Sanele is one of the cousins and his wife Mbalenhle happens to be pregnant.

"Is it visible?"I turn to Boikarabelo and she nods slightly.

I open the door and my heart drops to my stamoch.
