THREE MONTHS LATER-- December 24th
(Amanda's POV)

It's Christmas Eve and of course I'm at Eastern Cape. I miss Sfiso so much but there is no internet here so it's very hard. All my distant cousins came and it just so lively and nice here. Nandile is coming with the kids this afternoon but I think she is just gonna drop them off. They have fully divorced and it seems like Nandi has already found someone else but I won't say anything.

The next day--

I woke up because of a ringing phone. I picked it up.
Me: hello?
Sfiso: MaNdlanzi
Me: hey sthandwa sami(my love)
Sfiso:  ube nokhisimusi omuhle MaNdlanzi(Merry Christmas)
Me: ngiyabonga Mkhize.. (thank you)
Sfiso: unjani kodwa
Me: ngak'khumbula nje. I want to see you(I miss you)
Sfiso: eish sthandwa sami ngathi kuzoba inkinga leyo ngoba ngiKwaZulu manje ( that's going to be a problem because I am in KwaZulu Natal)
Me: oh okay ngiyakuzwa( I hear you)
Sfiso: ngiyakuthanda MaNdlanzi wami. Ngizobuye ngikufonela yezwa, sisa-busy lana( I love you. I will call you later, we are busy here)
Me: haybo nenzani kanti( what are you doing)

Sfiso: asishade(let's get married)

Sfiso: mina sengizilungisele nje ukulobola. Ngizimisele ngawe MaNdlanzi. Angiwaqambi amanga nje ngalabafana. Ngiyathanda MaNdlanzi( I'm ready to pay bride price. I'm serious about you. Im not lying like these boy. I love you)
Yoh what is this man doing to me😩 this is literally my first time being loved like this so I don't know how to react. But I also love him so much but there's so much to consider. It's only been 5 or 6 months.

After that, I made my bed and changed into a blue dress and white slippers. Everyone was already in the dinning room.
Mom: ayi ntombi!! Siya esontweni ntombazane! You have 30 minutes shesha!
Yoh! I quickly boiled some water, took a bath then changed into a knee-length light blue dress with white high heels. I put my hair into a big puff bun and applied some lipgloss.
Dad: Babalwa sayikushiya ngoku!
I grabbed my phone and quickly ran out.

After church, more of our relatives came, we were now in the kitchen and cooking seven colours.
Sphelele: Sis Amanda?
Me: yes Sphe?
Sphelele: how is the business going
Me: it's going well shame, it's improving and growing but there's alot of work but--
I was interrupted by a car hoot.
Me: ubani loyo?
I looked in the window - it was a red Mercedes. Nandile came out of it.
Me: ndiyabuya ngoku.
I ran out of the house.
Me: Nandile!!
I ran to her and we hugged. She was so beautiful wearing a black jean with a white polo neck, she looked thicker but it suits her.
Me: I missed you so much yoh!
Nandile: me too.. I have someone to introduce you to.
Me: okay..
A very light skinned guy came out of the driver's seat. He was also very muscular and looked handsome.
Nandile: erm Amanda this is Kumkani my boyfriend. Baby this is Amanda my sister from another mother
I laughed at that.
Kumkani: Dumela. (Greetings)
Me: molo ndiyavuya ukukwazi. Please treat her right ke mfo ndini(hello, nice to meet you)
Kumkani: don't worry, she's safe with me.
Nandile blushed.
Me: ihee! Kumkani please give me some time with my sister I need to talk to her.
Kumkani: no problem. He went inside the house.
Me: ntombazane! Yintoni lento! ( What is this?)
Nandile: i'll explain everything, just go get changed and we will leave to a restaurant, I will tell you everything.
Me: you better !
I went inside and change into black shorts with a white baggy t-shirt.
Nandile: okay let's just go for a short ride ke coz there are no restaurants around
Me: okay, iza nazo zonke ntombo! Zilandelana futhi! ( Come with them- the news. All of them)
Nandile chuckled and off we went--
Nandile: okay so after you guys let that day, they told me that they were going to Cape town bebodwa even though Nkosi knows that Cape Town is my favourite place in the world. I stormed off angrily and  I was very angry nje. I told him about Nthabiseng cheating and that was also another argument and I left that day.
Me: yes girl! I'm so proud of you!
Nandile: yes! So I went to KZN, uMhlanga and I lived in my old flat where my cousin Nonka was living then after that I just started to build my life up. I met Kumkani when I was driving to Johannesburg and my car just stopped in the middle of the road. He helped me transport my children to thier school and with all of that so nje I'm just so grateful for that day and he just wanted to purse me. I know you are thinking that it's too early but mina I love him and I'm ready to get married to him.
Me: mmh and I can even see you blushing about him
Nandile: *blush* mfethu even when I'm just thinking about him. Ngiyamthanda mngani and nothing can separate us. (I love him)
Me: you and me the same
Nandile: uSfiso?
Me: yes I love that man mfethu.
Nandile: we are gone girls
Me: Andi!!
We both laugh.
Nandile: he is amazing with children, my children love him, everything is perfect.
Me: have you met the family?
Nandile: no
Me: why not
Nandile: angazi mfethu it's like he doesn't want me to meet his family..I feel like I'm a secret( I don't know)
Me: ayibo you are too hot to be a secret
Nandile: well I might be
Me: ayi Nandile think positive phela nawe.
