INCLINATION

CHAPTER 60 | Thula,Thula

HLANGA

I stare at the ceiling of my sitting room after putting Isabella down and I am exhausted. It was hard to calm her down because she is missing her mother but i think once she has someone who speaks spanish and a woman, she might calm down because all she does is cry, sleep and eat. It really worries me and I hate seeing my daughter like that. I wish I could do something to make her feel better. Tomorrow I'll be having interviews with potential nannies and I really do hope that I find someone.

My aunt walks in then sits next to me. She heaves a deep sigh then shifts and faces me.
" We need help with Isabella. I regret that we sent her mother away because Isabella misses her mother Hlanga and I'm sure she misses her child too. Maybe...."
" Isa will be a fine auntie, if her mother really loved her then she wouldn't have left her behind no matter what she did. Aya grew up without his birth mother, Isa will too. I wish this wouldn't have happened to my children but it did and Isa was the last one. It will not happen to our child that Emy is carrying. This thing that is happening to my children needs to stop."

" I agree but maybe it's best Isabella went to her mother...."
" Auntie, she left a letter clearly telling me that I should never tell Isa about her. What if i take Isa back to her and she mistreats my child and maybe this time kills her? No. I raised Aya with your help, Emy's help also and mom's always there. I am ready now and I will raise my daughter auntie no matter what. Camilla will never see her again"
"But....."
"Enough! You won't mention Camilla's name in my house ever again and there will be no talks about sending my daughter away!"
" I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you. I just don't want you to feel overwhelmed"
" My kids can never make me feel that auntie. They are my responsibility and no one else's"

" I know, I just hate seeing you this way. Have you talked with Emy since you got discharged?'
" I wanted to call her but then I decided to send a text message instead because I want to respect her space. i asked if she and the baby are okay and she said they are okay, Thando and Nandi are with her"
" That's good, I just wish she was here at home with us"
" She is back. she landed this afternoon"
"Really, I can't wait to see her. Tomorrow i'm going to go and pay her a visit"
" Okay auntie. I'm going to bed, good night"
“ Ulale kahle Gwabini”

I kiss her cheek then make my way to my bedroom with the baby monitor on my hand. My body is still in pain even after three days of being released from the hospital. I take off my clothes, look at the bullet marks on my chest and sigh. This will always be a reminder of what happened that day, how Zola reminded me that if I hurt his daughter again, he will kill me next time.

What I know very well is that Zola would have killed me if he wanted me dead. What surprised me though is what heard from his parents and wife. He did the same thing that I did to Emy's mother. I wonder if he fathered another child that Emy and her siblings don't know about or it could be one of her siblings. Maybe I'll do some digging and find out. I head to the bathroom and take a quick shower then get in bed.

I take my phone and call her cause I honestly miss her. The phone rings until I'm about to hang up when she picks up.
“ Hi….” My dick stands firm and proud. She's sleepy and she sounds so sexy. I wish I was sleeping next to her.
“ I'm sorry I woke you. I thought that maybe you might still be awake”
“ I'm a little sleepy but your son wouldn’t stop talking my ear off”
“ He's there?”
“ Yeah, I picked him up when I landed but he went to his room now ”
“ He must be really happy that you're back” I know I am. She's closer and I can be able to take care of her and be there when she needs me.

“ I am happy too that I'm back home” She yawns.
“ Ok mama, let me not keep you. Have a good night”
“ Uhm…Hlanga, I was thinking if you could come over tomorrow so we can tell Aya about his sister.”
“ He knows mama, I told him when I gained consciousness from the hospital”
“ Oh, he hasn't said anything to me, how did he take it?”
