Mfundo POV.
.
"You're pregnant!?" My uncle's voice boomed in here and i just couldn't believe Drew could throw me under the bus like that. I was gonna tell my family when I was ready. "Bab omncane I'm sorry." I felt the tears invade my eyes when I saw the look of utter disappointment and disgrace on his face. "It was a mistake." I cried some more but he shook his head and just walked out leaving me with Drew. I turned my attention to him. "Really? Are you fuckin happy now!?" I took a pillow and threw it at him. Why would he put me in so much trouble. I was going to fix this my own way. "You were fuckin going to let him separate us!" He wasn't yelling but the hostility in his voice was very much evident. "Are you fuckin crazy, we are separated. I live in South Africa and you live in the States what separation are you talking about!?" I yelled. He did this for his own selfish reasons. "Mfundo I get it you mad but you need to tone it down for real. I ain't running with that shit you're spitting right now!"

"What is the worse that the United Kingdom could have done Drew. You had no right to tell my uncle that i was pregnant before me!" I yelled as more tears spilled out. "If you weren't sitting there like a sissy than your secret would still be safe. You're fuckin grown but still let them tell you what you need to do like a fuckin 6 year old!" This time he yelled back. "I AM NOT LIKE YOU! I FUCKIN HAVE A FUTURE TO THINK OF!" I snapped at him and i saw him kiss his teeth and at this moment i didnt even care how my words got to him but he was pissing me off. "I don't live just for the sake of it. I have a whole legacy to protect not much I can say for you." I hated how he literally me and him are the same. Why couldn't he understand that I had a lot to lose. "You clearly weren't thinking of your legacy when you was riding my dick and since you're so perfect Mfundo than why the fuck are you with me for?" I had hurt his feelings and God I didn't mean to but he was hurting me as well and God knows this is not how I was hoping our day was going to end. "Know what fuck this. I'm out." And just like that he left and there I was crying once again. I was too stressed and too emotional and that made me wonder if this baby could handle such a mother.

...
It been a week since I got discharged and my grandma and uncle were yet to say a word to me. It was like I didn't exist anymore. Even if we were in the same room they would converse and pretend as I wasn't standing there and to make matters worse Drew was also not talking to me to a point that he decided to leave the country without even saying goodbye. Had to see it on his socials that he was back in the States. Right now Priya was visiting me and we were sitting in the kitchen whilst she prepared some food for us. She practically dragged me out of bed when i told her I couldn't even eat because of how stressed I was. She was like I had to think of the baby and she was right because at the rate I was going I was bound to lose this baby if I didn't take better care of myself.

"So you're telling literally everybody in your life giving you silent treatment?" She asked as she stirred at the eggs and I nodded sadly. "So nobody is  considering the fact that you're actually pregnant?" I shook my head sadly. I understood why grandma and my uncle were upset but for Drew. He was just being an asshole. If this is how he acts in my first trimester surely by the time I give birth he would be long gone.

"Drew is being an asshole though." She commented and great minds think alike for real cause those are my exact thoughts about Drew. "Tell me about it." I huffed as scrolled through my phone and that's when I saw Drew had posted something on his Instagram and it was a picture of him and Kim all. dressed up. There was no caption on it. "Uyangijwayela lo." I said out loud as I dialled his number and it rang twice before he picked up. Priya was giving me this confused look like she wanted me to fill her on what I was fuming about.

"Hey baby." He answered. "Oh so you take Kim out for a date and than have the nerve to fuckin baby me like are you being for real!?" I flared my nose. "What are you talking about? What date with Kim you're on about?" And now he was playing me for a fool. Waze wabukisa ngami umfana."And now you're taking me for a fool. You could have fuckin broken up with me Andrew not this humiliation as if you haven't put me through enough humiliation!" I yelled at him as tears gushed out of my eyes. "Mfundo look I was gonna call you and tell you we should stop all this arguing and now you're accusing me of cheating with Kim."

"Know go to hell Andrew,its over!" I hung up as I told myself to not cry but the knot on my throat kept on getting heavier. "Excuse me." I got down from the island chair and just rushed to my room where I allowed my tears to do as they pleased. I couldn't believe what was happening right now. So this is what he wanted. To destroy me and than carry on with his life like he didn't just do anything.

My door creaked open and Priya stood there with a plate and a glass of juice with her. She walked over to me and placed my food on my bedside table before she pulled me into a hug. "Mfundo stop crying over him. You're such an amazing person and you're gonna find the one that is meant for you and  i'm sorry that Drew isn't that for you but sitting here crying over him is only going to cause harm to your baby and I know we both don't want that so forget his ass and just eat and we can watch a movie." She said now wiping my tears with her hand. "Come on and beside the matric results are coming out soon so we should be looking forward to that instead of crying over that skinny fuck boy." She giggled and I did a giggle as well but the ache in my heart was there and it was too much. "Come on eat." She handed me a plate and I took it and thanked her. She was right. I needed to try and take care of myself for my baby.
