eyyy mxm.... Well, hi , my name is Buhle Gabriella Mxenge , daughter of Nokuthula Rhadebe and Themba George Mxenge . My mom is xhosa, and my dad is colored but uses his mother's surname yet the xhosa one . Uhm, you see ... I don't like my dad he's a bully and abusive douche . My dad drains me emotionally , our relationship isn't all roses .. WE. DON'T. LIKE . EACH . OTHER. Why ? I don't know. My mom and dad we married but divorced when I was 8 . So I only stay with my mom . Me and my dad talk on the phone but not as much as we're supposed to. But whenever we do speak, he asks me if I'm dating or if I'm still a virgin, then goes ahead and threatens to take my trust fund left for me by my granddad (Eddie). Eyy, I miss my pa so much , but that's life for you .

well, back to me , I'm a grade 11 learner at an all girls school courtesy of my father . You may think since my dad is so controlling, I've never had a boyfriend. Heh, you guessed wrong . I do actually have one, and his name is Tebogo, and I love him to shreds . We've been together for 8 months now, and it has honestly been great . My mom knows about him, but we bot decided to keep it a secret from that guy George. I love my mom to bits , she does everything for me, and she's always there for me when I need her . She's my best friend and my rock . I'm brought out of my thoughts by Tebogo calling me .

Tebogo : Nana wam.

Me : Heyyyy baby.

Tebogo :  Usharp Nana? ( you good?)
Me : I'm good, Papa . You ?

Tebogo : I'm good, Nana. School tomorrow?

Me : Yes, my skat and ek is moeg yhoo . ( I'm tired, yho)

Tebogo : Sorry, Nana, wam . I'll fetch you after school if you don't mind .

Me : Okay, Papa . I'll see you tomorrow morning then .

Tebogo : Okay, Nana. Papa loves you ,okay ?

Me : I love you too, baby .

He ends the call, and I decide to go get some snacks so I can finish watching Squid Games . A few minutes into the episode, I start feeling sleepy. So I just close my laptop and slip into bed . I'm woken up by my mom nudging me

Mom : Hello, my baby .

Me : Heyy momma , back already?

Mom : Yes, baby . Work was hectic, hey .

Me : Sorry, momma . Do you want a massage?

Mom : No, baby . I can see you're tired. Come eat so you can come back to bed .

Me : Okay, momma .

we went to the dining table and I noticed she bought Nandos for dinner . You see when I say she understands me . I've been so stressed since its exams and she brings home comfort food . Love her .

Mom : So did you study, baby ?

Me : Yes, momma . I got a call from Tebogo he says he'll fetch me from school tomorrow.

Mom : That boy loves you , hey.

Me : And I love him too , momma .

Mom : That's good, mtanam. Love is such a beautiful thing, and I'm happy to see that you've found it .

Me : Thank you, Mama .

after dinner, we clean up the table and wash dishes, and I go back to bed . Tomorrow I'm writing my last paper. So I'm really happy and relieved.
