Simamkele's pov:
I wipe my tears when I hear a knock at the door. Thami is at work but his brothers kind of come here and eat our food sometimes. I'm cool with them because they are funny gents. I check myself in the mirror and damn. I quickly run to the bathroom and wash my face with cold water. The knocking keeps on getting intense,this is one impatient person. It must be his sister because one of his brothers would already be inside. I unlock the door and freeze. The hot guy on the hospital bed is here,what should I do?
"Hey,you must be Thami's wife?" he stretches his hand for a handshake and I shake it back
"Yes,come in" I move aside and he gets in. I close the door and he sits down on the couch "do you want anything to drink?" he nods
"Is there any beer in the fridge?" he asks and I nod
"Thami is going to notice" I say and he chuckles
"We're brothers,he won't mind" and damn he smells good. I walk to the kitchen slowly because of the pain I feel in my chest. It's not physical but it's emotional. You know when you're hurting so much that it affects you physically? I pull down my dress. Why did I have to wear a body hugging dress today out of all days? It's really not that short,just over the knee and it's long sleeved, but there's a good looking beast sitting on our couch. I grab a beer from the fridge and a bottle opener. He takes them from me after thanking me
"I think we haven't formally met" he states as I sit down on the couch opposite him
"Yes. I'm Simamkele Browns"
"You do know you're a Mthembu now,right?" he states and I shake my head
"Not legally" I say and he sits up
"Well I'm Lukhanyo Mthembu,the youngest of the Mthembu brothers and if anything,you were supposed to marry me" I shift in my seat
"Is that supposed to be a compliment?" I ask and he smiles making me smile. What is up with these brothers and having dimples?damn he looks good
"So why were you crying?" he asks looking at me and I stare at the floor "I mean you might as well tell me seeing your husband is not home. You're part of us now" you know when someone asks you how you're feeling when you were pretending to be fine and all the tears just roll down?that is how I'm feeling now
"I just feel lonely. My mother died and I didn't even know her family,same goes for my dad. I never really thought I'd spend my 18th birthday without my mom so it just made me sad" I start sniffing and I feel the couch move and his arms wrap around me
"We're all here and if you feel like it's girl stuff,you could talk to our mom or my sister. Look at me" I do and he wipes my tears " you're very beautiful so crying does not suit you" he moves his hands from my shoulders to my waist, pulling me closer to him and in the blink of an eye,he has his lips on mine. It felt so wrong and right at the same time. I couldn't back away because at that point my emotions led me.
"Lukhanyo this is wrong" I whisper
"But it feels so right" he whispers back and picks me up like I weigh nothing. The way he rushed towards our room made it feel like he knew this house, almost like he's been here before. I felt guilty about what I'm about to do but I wasn't thinking straight after all I was in pain and I needed someone to take that pain away. He puts me on the bed and this whole time my dress was rising up showing my thighs. He helps me take off my dress and then my underwear. This time,I had just shaved. He took off his shorts and tshirt,then underwear and threw them somewhere in the room. He was just as big as his brother. This time,well,I was turned on?I think
He starts licking my clitoris and I hate to say that it felt kind of good. He then sucks on it and an involuntary moan escapes my mouth. I feel this immense taste of pleasure down there and I push his head further,I don't want him to stop. He stops when I start curling my feet and cursing. He rubs his penis on my entrance and just like everyone he struggles. I can feel a slimy liquid drip on my ass.
"Touch yourself" he commands. I touch my clit and my legs start twitching. He pushes himself in and I stop when I feel pain. "Don't stop" he says and I continue. The pain turns into pleasure.
After three rounds I am tired as hell but I can't sit while I've just committed adultery. I stand up and it's only now that I feel the pain. He looks at me laying on my husband and I's bed,looking like a snack,naked. "Nobody can know about this"
"I know. My brother doesn't deserve you" I roll my eyes "he's probably not the man you need seeing what a monster you are in bed" he stands up and we both head for the shower. The nerve to shower together and have another round right there. Damn. When we're done we quickly wear the clothes we were wearing. He leaves the room while I open the windows and change the bedding. Damn,what if Thami finds out? I fix my curls as they are now all messed up. They are big now and when I've straightened my hair it's shoulder length.
I return downstairs when I hear Thami's car drive in. Lukhanyo is watching rugby and drinking his beer. Thami is extra early today because we were supposed to go shopping,together. I feel like such a slut. I hide myself in the kitchen and pretend to be someone who was originally cooking. How do people do this cheating thing?the guilt and discomfort when you see your partner.
"Hey baby" he whispers in my ear holding my back. I smile,wipe my hands,turn around and give him a kiss. A kiss that came from my guilty conscious,I never kiss him first. He smiles throughout "someone missed me"
"No,I'm just excited to spend your money" he laughs at my statement and I roll my eyes at him
"Anything for my wife. I hope you've met my brother?"
"Yes I have,I was cooking so he could eat something" he lets me go and huffs
"Leave it. He has his own girlfriend and a mom who will cook for him. We're going out today" he says and I leave the potatoes I was peeling. I put them in the fridge. Dude slept with me while he also has a girlfriend? "You look nice in that dress" he winks and I blush. I follow him to the lounge
"Lukhanyo,I take it you've met my wife" he makes emphasis on the wife part. Lukhanyo nods and smiles
"She's beautiful"
"And she's mine" okay,what am I missing here?
"Bro,you're still there? MaNtombi didn't even love me" Lukhanyo stands up "but I'll see you later" he walks out and Thami storms off upstairs. What is wrong with them? I close the door after Lukhanyo because he is also out of site now. I rush up the stairs after Thami. I knock on our bedroom door and nobody answers. When I walk in, the bed is unmade again but he is not there. I enter the bathroom and he is washing his face in the sink
"May I come in?" I ask because I've never really seen him that angry before. He keeps quiet "do you want to talk about it?"
"Simamkele can't you see that I don't want to talk to you? Why do you have to make everything about yourself?" he says looking at me from the sink. I scratch my arm nervously "I don't even see reason for this marriage! I had a girl that I loved! And even if she cheated on me with Lukhanyo,I loved her,damn it!" he shouts. I look up to avoid crying. That really hurt "you're busy making it seem like it's only your life that has been affected,what about me? I'm a man right,so I have to suck it up? Fuck off here" he ends. He doesn't really swear a lot so this was new to me. I fail to keep the tears in
"I'm sorry,I'll start packing my clothes" I say and leave the bathroom. He had someone he loved all this time? Why didn't he say so?maybe I would've let him date her and we'd act like a happy family infront of people. I make the bed,again,before I sit and stare outside. Will I ever find happiness?
