blinded from love

Epilogue

[ Khumo pov]
9 mouths later
After mouths of planning and fighting on what I want and what other people, specially Jabu's mother aka my mother-in-law, which of course made things more intense between her and Phumi because my girl finally grew balls and has stopped letting people push her around all that was left were slaps and punches which would have been fun to watch but of course big bro Kgosi stopped it before it got to that point...

It's in the early morning on the day and the makeup artist is doing her thing on my face while the hairstylist is busy with my hair. Phumi is my maid of honor of course and while Palesa is my only bridesmaid was in the other room helping my flower girls and boy. Phumi is right next to me as she was also getting her hair and makeup done by her own hairdresser and makeup artist. As they did the finishing touches her phone rang for the thousand time.

Phumi:" Kgosi, we are okay for 100th time. Now are you guys at least half way through with getting ready cause we are now dressed in our gowns...." She said and well she wasn't telling lies, they, being her and Palesa, were dressed which is why Palesa is helping the girls and boy as they can be a hand full, a beautiful one tho, we all had beautiful babies no cap, but still I hadn't gotten my dress on yet cause I was still busy with my makeup, honestly to I very much frustrated would be understatement.

Phumi:" Okay, fine just please fixes yourself and make sure that Jabu doesn't come here, tuu...
Kgosi, I can't meet you right now plus we just came from the bathroom so no..."

Khumo:" Woah, there are their people in the room..." I say as I see the trauma in the poor make-up lady's face.

Phumi:" Try tell him that..." she whispered, whiles covering the phone. " Okay, okay fine. But I'm taking one look at your suite and that's it mister..." She said getting out the room leaving me alone in the intense awkwardness between me, my hairstylist and makeup artist, but then suddenly they started laughing.

The makeup artist:" don't worry love. We have heard and seen worse from all the things your friend was saying... there was this one time where the braid excused herself to go to the lou while I was in the middle of finishing up her makeup, then all of a sudden there was a commotion out. It turns out that the bride was sleeping with the groom's brother who is or should I say was married to one of the bride's cousin, who caught them doing the deed in her car..."

Me:" Unamaga...."( you lying)

The makeup artist:" Girl, I wish, and even tho we still got paid I felt so bad cause the way I was makeuping the girl... I swear it was the best makeup I did at that time but girl as soon as your man sees the enhancements I did to your already stunning face. He might just faint...." She said finishing up my lips.

The makeup artist:" Lihle, are you not finishing cause you been busy with her hair for hours now...."

Lihle:" I'm almost done ma. Her hair is so easy to style that I wanted to complicate it for myself..." She responded excitedly. I looked at her a bit confused, but something clicked in.

Me:" Oh, she's your daughter??" I asked with a heavy heart.

The makeup artist:" The one and only... my angle, she helps me during her school holidays... erh I hope you don't mind..."

Me:" ohh noo. Not. Not at all..." I said as I felt my chest closing and vision got blurry.

The makeup artist:" ma'am are you okay?" She asked with a concerned look.

Me:" Yes... ummm I just... my mom died when I was young and it's just these special moments in my life, I would really love for to here. I most of the time wonder how she would be react, how she would have been made sure nothing went wrong and the advices most mothers tell their daughter before marriage... Gosh. I'm sorry I just always feel overwhelmed when thinking about my mom... I'm even ruining your work, and got you crying to... I'm just created a huge mess... I'm so sorry."
