Family Ties

Happy Life 2

Anyways that was the last time I saw Andiswa and my dad. Khanyi and I have actually relocated to Beverley Hills and live here full time and just visit South Africa when we have to. The only thing that makes us go back is Khanyi's company, and me going to visit my mother's grave. This time, Andiswa asked if she could see us. It was like a month ago when she reached out, and damn to think that imma see her again is crazy. Also the fact that now she has siblings is also gonna be somewhat hard to take in. After I graduated, Khanyi and I felt like our relationship looked promising, so we made a decision to just get away from everything. My father and I weren't talking, and her and Andiswa were also not talking, so we just needed to focus on ourselves. We left South Africa and immediately when we landed here, decided that we should have our own family. Now Khanyi didn't mind falling pregnant, just once though, and luckily, God blessed us. We have beautiful and handsome twins. My woman is really fertile.

I get inside Sandile's room then he quickly sits up as he was laying on his bed. I run to him and hold him. I tickle his stomach then he laughs. "Why didn't you say you are done?" I ask picking him up. "Mmhh?" He just laughs then I shake my head. We go downstairs. "How long has he been done?" She asks then I shrug my shoulders. "Ask him." I say then she laughs and shakes her head. "Come here big boy." She says opening her arms. He leans onto her then I look at him. "Just like that?" I ask then he laughs, but still trying to go to his mother. "Fine then. Someone isn't getting ice-cream today." I say passing him to her. He didn't want to go to his mother anymore then I laughed and stuck my tongue out to her. "The fact that you have to bribe him. Really?" She says then I roll my eyes. His sister Zandile comes downstairs. She folds her arms as soon as she gets to us

"What's wrong baby?" Khanyi asks her kneeling down to her level. She points at Sandile then I laugh. "There's enough space for both of you. Come." I say bending down. She shakes her head still with her arms folded. "Okay, Sandi go to your mom, I'll still buy you ice-cream." I say then he smiles and forces himself to her. I almost dropped him even. "They both have favourites." Khanyi says then I shake my head and go upstairs. "Let's go fetch your suitcases." I say to Zandi then I run with her in my arms. She was giggling the entire way. I get hers and her brother's bags. I put her backpack on her arm then we go downstairs. I go put their bags in the car then get back inside the house. "Are you ready my love?" I ask when I get inside the sitting room. "Yep. Let's go."

We get out of the house then go to the car. I put the kids in their car seaters then go open the door for Khanyi and close it. I go to the driver's seat and start the car. "So, how do you feel about seeing them again?" Khanyi asks then I shrug my shoulders. "I didn't actually hate anyone when I left, so I'm neutral." I say. I play Rich Problems by Dave East when my phone finally connects to the cars bluetooth. "You?" I ask looking at her. I mean it's been five years since she saw her daughter. Life is crazy man. "I want to say I'm excited, but I don't know man." She says then I hold her hand. "No matter what, I have you back." I say looking at her. She smiles at me then I place a kiss on her hand. "Everyone is comfortable? Can we go?" I ask looking at the back. "Yessss!" Sandile shouts excitedly and Zandile just nods her head. Yeah, this twin stuff, now I finally understand. I make my way to the airport.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Finally, we landed in South Africa and it was five am this side. Everyone was jet-lagged, as a matter of fact we all agreed to sleep when we got home and wake up at eight am. We got inside my Golf GTI then I made my way to my place. I got the kids from the back since they were sleeping whilst Khanyi brought our bags inside. I put them inside their rooms and tuck them in then go to Khanyi and I's room. "Being in this room, now with you will never stop being weird." She says sitting on the bed and taking off her shoes. "Since I never slept here, I can't relate. I would buy a house and we would live there, but I can't sell my mom's place. This is one of the many physical memories I have of her." I say taking my t-shirt off and folding it. "You know I don't mind though." She says. "Don't even worry about it. I get you." I say then take off my shoes. I sit on the bed next to her. "Let's get ready for bed so we can sleep." I say looking at her. "Alright." She says then stands up and undresses. I take off my jeans and fold them. I go put everything on top of the washing basket then go to the closet. I get my boxers and put them on. I take off my bra and put on a tank top.
