Have you ever felt like a burden lifted off your shoulders when you just tell someone what has been troubling you?
Zenokhule's grandma looks at Zenokhule with hurt in her eyes and Zenokhule just looks down.
"Why?"Zeno looks up and sees the pain she has caused her grandmother and she licks her dry lips."Why kill her/him?"
"I thought I was going to be a disgrace to you and my parents."Zenokhule says as a matter of fact and tears drop from her eyes.
"Okay."The grandmother puts her cup of tea down on the table and opens her arms. Zenokhule comes into them and the Grandma brushes her back."You have to cleanse, nana."She says.
Zenokhule nods her head."Let's do it,grandmother…please, grandmother."
Her grandmother looks at her and then the clock."Okay,call Busi while I call someone."
Zenokhule gets up from the floor and quickly goes outside to a hut where Busi stays in and she knocks on the door.
The door unlocks and she sees Busi who seems to be looking at her with narrow eyes."Zenokhule."
"Uhmm…I finally told her."Zeno tells Busi and she nods."And my grandmother is looking for you."
Busi nods and gets out of her hut. They walk to the house together and enter the house. Busi sits on the floor and greets Zeno's grandmother."She has to go to Gogo Nkosi."Her grandmother says.
Zenokhule stands there nervously as they look at her and she fiddles with her nails.
"When?"Busi asks.
"In the morning."The grandmother says and Busi nods.
"She needs to acknowledge the child and make sure to fast and pray."Busi says and I nod my head.
"It's going to be a long process but it needs to be done."The grandmother says while looking at her and she nods again.
Zenokhule was determined to go back to Pretoria as a new person and she just wants to see her pathway light up and make sure that her things go the right way.

"That went well."Busi says and Zenokhule nods.
"Thank you,Gogo."She kneels down and tells Busi.
Busi lifts her up and shakes her head with a smile."It's my gift, Zenokhule. I don't want you to thank me, just be careful next time."
Zenokhule looks at her as they wash the dishes and she nods her head."Okay,if you say so."She looks at her and smiles. Finally,she has this pain off her shoulders and now may her ways open up and see the change she needs to see.

I hear a knock on the door and look up at Sandile who also looks on the door."I'll get it."He says.
I sit up and he gets up from the couch. I rub my eyes and look at who it is.
"It's your friend."Sandile says and I get up to see Zenokhule wearing a headscarf and no make-up."I'm l-"
"You don't have to leave, Sandile."Zenokhule says and as she pushes her luggage."Hey, Candace."
I look up and open my arms.We hug and she tightens her hug around me."Mabishop. You are glowing."I pull away and she gives me a faint smile."You look tired."
"Yeah,that is because I am. I just want to sleep."I nod my head and smile.
"Go to sleep then."I remove my hands around her neck and she smiles back. She looks better than the last time I saw her but I know she still needs someone to talk to.
"Okay,let me go to sleep and I'll see you in the morning."
"Yeah."She takes her luggage and walks away.
"Good night."She says before entering her room and I wave at her when she looks at me and smiles before entering her room.
I feel his arms around my waist and his head on my shoulder."They'll be fine."He kisses my cheek and I nod my head.
"I know the feeling all too well and I am angry that I can't be there for her when she needs a friend."
He lifts his head and comes face to face with me as he lifts my chin and brings my body closer to his."What you do for her is amazing, Candace."
Sandile lowers his lips and looks at me with his eyes burning with desire."Just kiss me, Sandile."I whisper and he smirks.
"She is not ready to open up yet,just give her time a-"I hold his neck and connect our lips. He kisses me with so much hunger and passion as he slides his tongue in my mouth and finally wins dominance against my tongue. He lifts me up and I wrap my arms around his waist.
"Candace."I feel him break the kiss and I open my eyes annoyed.
"What now?"He smirks and pecks my lips.
"And that is why you should learn to sometimes wait for her to tell you what the issue is."I nod my head as I rub his goatee.
"And this is why you are always going to be in my heart."
"I know."I roll my eyes and he kisses me before putting me on his lap and we continue to watch our movie… I'm in love ,shame and I don't think it's stopping anytime soon.
