Zimi
(We're traveling to Mvelo's home for the strengthening ceremony this weekend. Mvelo already left with the twins, I'm wrapping up some things at work, but I'll be leaving early since I asked for a half day, already his Aunts are gonna bite my head off for him leaving me behind. I packed all my skirts, dresses, doeks and pinnafores and comfortable shoes, it's my first ceremony after my lobola so basically everyone wants to see if the new makoti can work. I take my bags and pack them in my Ford Ranger Raptor since I'm going to bumpy roads, I need a strong car, I passby Food Lover's market to get some groceries I'll need when cooking and some things for Mvelo's house at home, I don't want to be shocked when I don't find spices, and start saying I can't cook since the spices I'm used to aren't there,i wanna be ready. I'm wearing this nice long black shirt dress with mid sleeves, it's not too tight on me but it's hugging me in the right places and a doek on top of my weave lines, I'm going to wear my mhlonipho at the gate, the guys at the shop were throwing looks at me but I didn't entertain them. I'm now on the road to Berg ville, it's so far, Mvelo calls I answer via Bluetooth.
Zimi:Mageba
Mvelo:Ukuphi ususukile??
Zimi:No angkasuki
Mvelo:Zimi I don't want you driving at night yazi and bazokbona njengomakoti onjani ofika ebsuku emzini. (I chuckle cause he's so serious)
Zimi:Aww ngyadlala I'll be there in 5 mins noma ufuna ngime ngikshuthele intaba zokhahlamba ukuze ubone ukuthi I'm around.
Mvelo:Yes zshuthe ngkholwa ngokbona(I stop the car and take a snap and send it to him)
Zimi:Usuyangkholwa Thomas??
Mvelo:Mhhh I believe you, okay bye ngzokbona manje.
Zimi:Sharp
(I arrive at the Zulu residence, it's very big and modern tradional, I'm always stunned whenever I'm here, my car battery is running out so I Rev it a bit outside before I turn to the gate. I turn and aim for the gate and hoot, the boys open the gate for me, and I can see the men are outside doing something, they all turn to look at me and my beast parking, my mhlonipho is already across my body, ngumakoti nje serious. I get out the car and go greet the guys. Mvelo is smirking.)
Zimi:Sanibona
Guys:Aww makoti uyaphila
Zimi:Ngyaphila ninjani(there's probably guys from the neighborhood already, I think they don't know who am I because they looking at me like candy. I leave them and call the kids to help me with the plastics in the car and Mvelo appears behind me.)
Mvelo:Mama waze wamuhle mkami(yoh I melt)
Zimi:Thank you Mageba(he holds my waist and gives me a peck)
Mvelo:I missed you
Zimi:Hau ungcine ekseni nje
Mvelo:Yah those hours and the boys missed you two
Zimi:Baphi vele
Mvelo:They're in Gogo's house ubathanda kabi
Zimi:Shuthi I won't have an issue with them this weekend, cela ungphathise this siye endlini(We go to Mvelo's house(each male built his own cottage outside the main house to allow freedom for their girlfriends or wives.)
Zimi:Nenzani emnyango
Mvelo:Uhh just planning for the weekend assigning duties, I guess nani when the remaining makotis arrive you'll be given duties
Zimi:Alright, I'm hungry
Mvelo:Below the belt or??? (This guy)
Zimi:Well both(He chuckles)
Mvelo:Well I think we can fix the first one right now, he picks me up and throws me on the bed, I'll probably need a shower after this session vele, he starts kissing me and strips my clothes off, he sucks my titties and leaves wet kisses in my body moving down to my coochie, he fingers it and caresses it making me moan in pleasure, his already hard, he inserts his large self inside me and I moan so hard, he gives me the harsdest strokes and my eyes right now are looking like his Chinese sexy eyes yooooh, we reach our peak together and he falls on top of me groaning.)
Mvelo:Fuck yes mkami(I laugh)
Zimi:That was nice
Mvelo:Too nice
Zimi:Let's go shower so I can change into something comfy and relax a bit, I had a long drive.
Mvelo:Yeah let's go( we shower and I wear a pinafore with a doek and umhlonipho with crocs, I make something to eat for Mvelo and I then head out to check my babies haibo.)
Zimi:Sanbona laykhaya(I say walking into the main house, well some like me, some don't so basically those who like me are smiling and happy to see me and the others are giving me nasty looks.)
Enhle:Hau muntu kaBhuti, you look so gorgeous, and one cannot tell you just had twins. (I smile she's sweet)
Aunt Hle:Hawu if it isn't the mother of the most handsome Zulu boys(I chuckle, they're so dramatic)
Zimi:Speaking of those, bakuphi I need to see them, it's been too long. (The aunt who has an issue with me Aunt The gives me a nasty look and speaks.)
Aunt The:What kind of mother leaves their children's sight for so long, worse let them travel with the father only. (Heeeh ngyalingwa, she thinks mina I'm a single parent like her)
Zimi:Firstly Aunty, it wasn't that long, and they were under supervision yaGogo wabo, secondly unlike you mina my man is present in my children's lives, irole yakhe uyayazi, we are in this together, he knows everything he needs to know about his kids, even if I were to leave for a year, I wouldn't be worried because I know very well that our boys will be under great supervision, everyone is shocked ngoba phela bayamsaba well I won't let her walk over me ngizfikela nje,she clicks her tongue and walk out.)
Mrs Zulu:The boys are in the playroom, woza sthandwa sami ngikyise khona(We walk down the passage and wow, this playroom is gorgeous, it has every type of toy, kiddies chairs and tables and little beds, the twins are sleeping there, well one is now awake.)I love the fact that awvumi uThembeka akweyise bese uyathula, it means uzokwazi ukwakha umuzi since you're able to voice out your emotions.
Zimi:Ngyaxolisa Ma if I came across as disrespectful ukuthi angthandi ukhlokolozwa
Mrs Zulu:Khululeka baby, I know very well ukuthi uyahlonipha, that's why uMvelo chose to lobola you ingoba he sees the respect, he's very much obsessed ngenhlonipho.
Zimi:(I finish feeding the first twin, I'll have to wake the second one up cause he has to be hungry, I do so and he starts crying, awu bakithi I calm him down till he's quiet, Ma has gone back to the kitchen. I feed my little man and try to burp him, as I'm still doing that, Mvelo walks in the room, I'm really feeling angry at the fact that people like Aunt The can just be so vile, I mean I'm new to this mom thing and yes I'm learning but judging the way they parent could just tear some apart, luckily I didn't break down. Mvelo comes to me and the baby.)
Mvelo:If it isn't my favorite people in one room, zthandwa zami niright(He looks at me for quite long and I already know he's caught on how I'm feeling.)
Zimi:We're fine, should I make them sleep futhi or ngvele ngehle nabo ugogo abagade?
Mvelo:I think that's better, kade belele abakwazi uklala futhi, bazogula phela angithi my boys huuh(he plays with the one I'm carrying)
Zimi:Othi ngyosho ke ukuthi I'm bringing them and sort the swinging chairs(he stares at me)
Mvelo:Zimi (I look at him)
Zimi:Babe??
Mvelo:Yindaba, uyangsinda I can tell you're angry, did I do anything wrong?? (I smile)
Zimi:Sizoxoxa, and no you did nothing wrong let's take the kids down bese syakhuluma(he nods)

Mvelo
( I found Zimi and my kids in the playroom and when I scanned her, I definitely saw something was up ngaye, well I got quite nervous that maybe I've done something wrong but when I asked she laughed and said I did nothing wrong, I went to our house so we can talk privately, I'm pacing up and down our bedroom and she walks in and attacks me with a hug, ayy angsazike, I hold her and let her be, she starts sobbing, and I cup her face making her face me.).
Mvelo:What's wrong kanti??
Zimi:Am I a bad mother(Hau)
Mvelo:What!! No you're the best ever and your first time being a mother to two fat boys(she hits my arm and pulls out of my embrace and sits on the bed,i follow her and put her head on my chest.) Ivelaphi lento ongbuza yona all of a sudden?? And you're crying, what happened?
Zimi:I'm just angry, very angry that's why I'm crying uyazi when I control my anger ivaleleka ngaphakthi, your Aunt Thembeka(I  clicks his my tongue) she went on about how I leave my kids for so long and let you travel such a long distance with the kids only and I told her where to get off reminding her that unlike her baby daddy, you're present in our kids' life and you know every little thing there is to know about parenting and taking care of our babies. (I peck her mouth,I'm proud she spoke up, one thing about her calmness, she doesn't cause drama but will put you in your place and you'll never wish to step on her toes.)
Mvelo:I'm proud of you and not allowing her to disrespect you.
Zimi:Ukuthi nje ungdinile Mageba, ungdinile I don't really understand ukuthi abantu abanjengaye basuke becabangani be insulter imama, I mean I'm new to this and learning everyday and then somebody comes and just disregards your efforts kanjani???(She angry neh)
Mvelo:Wena babe you're perfect for our sons and me, phuma kwabanye vele uAunt The always has something negative to say even nathi ingane zabhuti wakhe, she picks on us, ngyakthanda yezwa mama wabafana bami and you're a great mother and glue to our family, never forget that yezwa(I kiss her again, deeply this time and she pushes me laughing)
Zimi:Ehh Ehh this is gonna get heated I'm still tired.
Mvelo:Mcm you're denying me (She laughs, I love her so much)
Zimi:I love how you're able to read my mood and communicate duly, because omunye ubezothula ngize ngisho something uthole ukuthi sengikdelelile.
Mvelo:Just like how you're able to read me, we're in this together forvever. (She melts at those words)
Zimi:Let me go back eKhishini ngyakthanda myeni wami(mhh it's my time to melt, she stands up and I hold her waist and kiss her sweet lips)
Mvelo:Bhabhayii
