Sbonelo POV :
I am off to a meeting in sandton I need to seal the deal with this other company they want us to help with logistics part of the business . As I am driving I wonder if am I prepared for what I am doing with thato. I mean every time when she is involved I act on instinct whether she is there or not. I act without thinking for instance I call her to check up on her and I want to get to know her .
This is so unusual for me it's feel like I am out of character I am so used to one night stands and fuck buddies this infatuation I have on this girl got me feeling weird.
I arrive mkhize logistics and I make my way to the receptionist who was very welcoming and directed me to the personal assistant of mkhize Jr who I was meeting to discuss the contract.
P.a:" Good day sir my name is Emihle how may I assist you". She said seductively
Me:"I am here to meet mr Themba mkhize Jr ".
P.a:"oh yes he is expecting you ....let me accompy you to him". We walked in silence because first of all angizwane nomuntu ophaphayo number 2 angizwane who looks like a clown.
We got a elevator and shem le ngane was trying to make conversation but angikho lapho if only she knew the typa girls I entertain angakhala igazi.
We get off I follow her to a boardroom and business commences.
The meeting was tricky because I am dealing with a amateur yhooo angiphinde .I receive a call but i am currently driving so i answer without looking at caller ID.
Me:"mahlangu hello".
Person:"heyy sbonelo " holy shit I almost swerve the car I wasn't expecting a call from her.
Me:"sawubona muhleza
Thato:"how are you "
Me:"good you this is a surprise ". She giggles
Thato:"I surprised myself too but you did try calling me i wanted to hear what were you saying ".
Me:"I wanted to know what time will you arrive tommorrow " honestly I don't remember calling her oh well could be a butt dial or something but Imma go with the flow and improvise.
Thato:"i am not really sure why".
Me:"I just wanna know".
There was silence and I could tell that she doesn't know what to say .
Me:"what are you up too?".
Thato:"out shopping with my baby sis before I leave...
Me:"lol I get it let me not disturb you guys".
Thato:"okay talk to you later bye".
Me:"bye". I end the call
The past few days I have been getting to know thato she is such a calm person so calm its weird. She knows what's she wants and isn't afraid to get it.i have never been with such a person more especially females who aren't afraid to get dirty. from what i have picked up from thato is that she very conservative shy quiet but not really quiet and there is a lot I want to unravel.
She isn't the type of girl I usually go for the girls i have been with are more on a different spectrum. More like clubs huns,the huns I know that I am leaving with after the let's fuck around type girls the wild cards. So me being attracted to thato is a shock and unusual for me. There is something about her that makes want to be there for her care ,love, protect her At first I thought hey mabye its the sex appeal she has but spending time with her at my office the other day I realised that I don't want her sexually but I want to know her . I was intrigued by her I hung on every word she I was focused on her and is so out of character for me .
I don't know when or how i got to my place with all these thoughts in my head,I think I just drove here absent minded a risk I took. I enter my house and head straight to the fridge and get me some beer and plop myself on the couch.
This thing with that is messing with me and my mojo. Some how i ended up dozing off the couch.
THATO'S POV :
I am sitting here in the store waiting for my sister to finish with her fashion show ,my mind is not with me but on the call I had with sbonelo I don't know if it's me but he sounded off also the call was awkward and uncomfortable.
I know I am not putting much effort in whatever friendship or something we have. Reason is because I never know what to say I become tough tied. I am not one to be in relationship so i don't really know how they actually work do i sign a contract is there a girlfriend manual . But i might be jumping into conclusions what if he just wants to be friends why do relationships with men have to be complicated even if its a platonic relationship there always some uncertainty with them . Anyways sbonelo and I have been talking for like a week now and I am feeling him . Is he feeling me the way I am feeling does he see me in the light I want him to see me in.
Bassie and I went to watch a movie in the mall we watched RENFIELD. That was a really good movie even though my head was fully there . Nicolas cage never ceases to amaze me but he will forever be known as THE NIGHT RIDER.
Later we at John dory's keeping a light conversation and I realise that as much as my sister is doing her last year in high school she is in that "I am confused"stage . I really hope that she ends up taking good decisions because we all know how high school is like .
We travelling back home so i could prepare for my journey back to joburg. Our drive there is filled with us blasting pop songs and us butchering the songs.
Arriving home we unpack what needs to be unpacked and I remember that I bought something earlier for my parents. I give them their gift i bought them a foot spa gadget.
Mama:"yhooo ngwanaka rea leboha hle can't wait to use it ".
Me:"It's nothing mama ". Here is a part I am dreading to say
Me:"mama le papa tommorrow I will be heading back to joburg ". I announce I look at their expressions and see my mom's face sulk and my dad's yeah no I could never really read him ,he is one person i can't read even though I am good at it.
Mama:"oh okay nana but so fast Mara ".
Me:"eya mama i need to back to work nou even if ha ke batle I would rather stay here with you so you can baby me ". Papa give me a side smile knowing very well how much mom tends to be".
Papa:"that my wife not yours mine I can't wait for bassie to leave for school and finally I will have her to myself I really don't like sharing ".
Bassie:"Mara papa.....". She protests
Me:"she is our mother!!".I exclaim my mom giggles
Papa:"I saw her first i knew her first and if it wasn't for me you wouldn't exist ".firstly ewwww and secondly ....there is is no secondly.
Mama:" why are you fighting your dad he is my husband before he is your father,so now all of you are grown it time to part ways we did yall a favour by raising you all let us be".
Look who is is talking the same person who worries first wow lol .bassie and I are shook because she is siding with her mans power of indoda .
Bassie:"did us a favour you guys are our parents you have to take care of us ". I know that's right
Me:"that's a given its a must".
Papa:"well it's not a requirement we could always just take you back to the hospital were we got you ". Now that made me laugh cause when I was a kid and mom was pregnant with basetsana I asked her why is her tummy big she said she swallowed a ball and then jiki jiki basetsana is here so i asked where do babies come from mom said to ask papa and papa directed me back to mama they end up telling me that hospitals sell well behaved babies to nice people. So each time when I was a kid and I had to go to the hospital I would cry saying i don't want a baby . They (my parents) teased me about even now,embrassing can't they let it go.
Bassie:"let me to try on my new clothes thank you big sis love you and your money so much. she said as she was walking the direction of her bedroom. I stood up too so i can start with packing .
Me:"batswadi lenna ere ko packa ".
Papa:"Okay nana". I left to pack
Saturday morning I made a huge greasy breakfast for everyone I stuffed myself as much as I could,my sister as well what can I say we love food . later in the afternoon i drove back to my place back to my normal routine.
I texted bontle that I am back and went to get a bottle of wine and it's nice and cold. I made a cute fruit platter then watched peaky blinders.
I posted a candid video on my Instagram and whatsapp.
A couple of minutes later bontle walks in as if she lives here that's how comfortable the girl is but who am I kidding I do that to at her place.
Bontle:"awww my sister "she says so loud ,bontle is loud vele.
Me:"yasss wena".
Bontle:"i arrived at the right time mos". She says holding a wine glass that she took from the kitchen.
Me:"hayi the girl I have tea to spill". I say
Bontle:"that's the first time you said something sensible did you get laid because it's been overdue". Talk about no filter
Me:"no I didn't get laid but I have been talking to someone" .
Bontle:"cobwebs I say cobwebs ". I look at her
