ACUMA MAAKE KANCUBE
---------------------------------
I wake up in an unfamiliar place, I look to my left and there was a stabilizer and a drip in my arm.
I was in hospital.
My mother walks in with 2 other figure that I didn't pay attention to.
She's back!? She came back for me!
"Oh mntanam, oh yini undituse kangaka?" she says sit next to me holding my hand.
- oh my child, oh why did you scare me like that.
"Uxolo mama, I just lost it. Ubuyile? Forever anditcho?" I say with a smile trying to convince myself she'll be coming home with me as soon as I leave the hospital.
-Sorry mama, i lost it. You back? Forever right?
She looks away from me and I already know her answer.
I turn away from her and I hold in my tears not wanting her to see my weakness.
"Cumalethu, I love you and you know that mntanam. But I can't go back to that house. You father is beastly. "
-My child.
"No mama. If you truly cared about me you would have stayed because as far as I know, utata uyaku thanda. Ewe akekho perfect, kodwa uyazama mama. Nguwe ongafuni xake busy nge shows zakhe or when he takes trips for business. Utata did everything for us to live the life we deserve but you couldn't handle the fact that he's always around different women, from different countries. You got so jealous of him. Don't you even try blame utata for your selfishness. That man works his ass off for us." I say expressing all the anger that was boiling in me to her.
-Dad loves you. Yes he isn't perfect but he tries. You didn't like it when he's busy with his shows or business trips.
She wipes a tear off her face and let's go of my hands.
"I'm sorry t— that you feel that way but I'm not going to go back to that life I was living with your father. Acuma, you should be happy that I am finally independent. I depended on you father, so much I lost my myself in the mist of it. So if you are going to sob over something that happened years ago and feel sorry for yourself, that's not going to take you anywhere. Utatakho has moved on, so have I and I think you should too mntanam." she kisses me on the forehead, leaving me scarred with her words.
Maybe I was the trigger to my mental health. I'm constant going back to the past whereas I should be focusing on my future.
LUYOLO MADLINGOZI
-----------------------------
I couldn't stop thinking about how Cuma was doing. I needed to know whether that pain in the mpundus was alive or not.
I needed her alive.
She's such an amazing, fun, activist and crazy girl.
Damn, what's happening? It's only been the first day and I'm already falling for her.
