"Remind me why we are doing this? "I said dragging my tired self from the bathroom
Him: call it therapy "
Me: Sandile I don't need therapy I need my men next to me under those sheets "
I said pouting and wrapping my arms around him, he smiled and kissed me
Him: you are using me to forget your problems Rose ... "
Me: ooh this topic again "I said blowing out air and stepping away from him,
Ever since the news of Oyama death hit the screen, I became clingily to Sandile. It all started a week ago, when Sandile found me drunk with Nicky and her friends in my house, he was in shock that I decided to let down my hair at the most awkward time in my life, while my son was drooling at Nicky's friend, and in the midst of it all my mother budged in and cause a scene
"Rose ufelwe this is not how you suppose to act, uzodlula mani! "
"Wena Zuko wasineka nje, you think this is funny, take your mother to her room and make her change to something decent "
"I will take her ma, "Sandile said while holding my hand but that alone made my mind blow out
"Sandile ... manyala mani lawa owenzayo, uRose is a widow its inappropriate for a man to be next to her ... with all due respect kindly leave this house please "
And that was my queue to escape the drama, I decided to walk Sandile out and later I ended up in his bed and it's been a week in his house, it's good to say that I have blocked everyone out of my bubble, since I don't know when I will have this quality time with Sandile again, you see once I put Oyama's fake corpse in the ground, my life will be turned upside down, being a widow In South Africa means a women need to act a certain way but being a Nigerian widow means I will have this stigma painted on me, it's just another level of a horror story, I will be under a very tight surveillance, I will be forced to be Nigeria for months not to mansion that I will be busy with familiarizing myself with Oyama's business, busy fighting the war of power, greed and jealousy with my in-laws, taking care of Oyama's kids, having time for me will be wiped out completely off from my books and what scares me the most is that I don't know where that will leave Sandile and I.
Him: look babe, it was hard for me to track this boy and we cannot miss this window, because he might disappear again "
I snapped out of my deep thoughts when he spoke, I looked and him and frowned his right we need to go to Sam's location as in right now... it took Sandile days to even track his whereabout, Sam really knows how to disappear from the face of the earth
Him: Rose don't be selfish you know verry well that Zuko needs a brother like Sam in order to run the company, you need him too, so he need to know about his identity before the forensic department release Oyamas body and you get shipped to Nigeria without a backup plan, so do me a Favour and get dressed so we may go! "
He said walking out from his bedroom I rolled my eyes and started applying body lotion on my body, I drifted off again thinking what is my mother, Nicky and Zuko up too, are they coping with the media, has Ngozu bothered them yet? Maybe I was being selfish for just dropping everything and running off with Sandile.
I smiled to myself as I suddenly felt sensation of butterflies in the pit of my stomach, thinking of how amazing Sandile has been to me, I remember the first day I lay my eyes on him, I was taken, he set a spark inside me that was hard to ignore, even when I was concerned by the fact that he was a too good to be true kind of a guy, that did not stop me from falling for him hard, Sandile possessed the most unrealistic perfection, he kept me so alive by his non-stop humor, intelligence, charisma , his protective nature, and his undefined love
