Uthando olungavumelekanga: Forbidden love

Zingisa#30

So I went back home ,I really didn't want to leave her like that but atleast she was smiling and laughing when we were hunting but I'm concerned about her because she has been vomiting the whole morning ,I wonder what's wrong with her.I arrived at home ,Zimkhitha and Mkhokeli hugged me ,it's odd that Mkhokeli hugged me people ,I mean he's a man but he pulled away quicker after hugging me and looked down ,maybe he's a bit embarrassed.
Zimkhitha:Siyivile indaba yakho bhut' Zingisa(We heard about your incident Zingisa)
I didn't even respond ,I just sighed
Mkhokeli:Awufuni kuthetha ngayo lento Zingisa?(Don't you want to talk about it Zingisa?)
Zingisa:Ndizathetha kodwa hayi ngoku Mkhokeli ,okwangoku ndifuna ukuhlamba ndilale ,ndidiniwe(I'll talk about it later on ,not now Mkhokeli ,as for now I want to bath and sleep ,I'm tired)
Mkhokeli:Are you okay though after this whole thing?
Radebe:Yintoni ezamenza angabi right Mkhokeli?(What will make him to not be okay Mkhokeli?)
Mkhokeli&Zimkhitha:Tata?(dad?)
Radebe:Khanihambe ndifuna ukuthetha noZingisa (Please excuse us I want to talk to Zingisa alone)
Zingisa:Bahamba bayaphi?andifuni ukuthetha nawe mna tata(Excuse us for what?I don't want to speak to you dad)
Radebe:Mkhokeli ,Zimkhitha ,hambani ,wena Zingisa ndilandele(Mkhokeli ,Zimkhitha ,leave ,Zingisa ,follow me)
Zimkhitha and Mkhokeli left us there ,I don't want to talk to this guy ,after what he did ,I don't want him near me.
Radebe:Kufuneka sithethile mna nawe Zingisa ,ndikubonise indlela(We need to talk Zingisa ,I want to show you the way)
Zingisa:Eyiphi indlela?le ndlela yakho enameva?khumbula kaloku Radebe ukuba ameva ayahlaba(Which way?the one that have spikes and thorns?remember Radebe that spikes and thorns are harmful)
Radebe:Zingisa ,masihlale phantsi sithethe ,andifuni ukulwa nawe ke namhlanje(Zingisa ,let's sit down and talk ,I don't want to fight you today)
I just gave him a straight face and left him there and went to my hut and closed the door and he knocked.
Radebe:Zingisa!hee wena Zingisa!Zingisa!yhoo hayi ndohlulekile mna ngoku!(Zingisa!Zingisa!Zingisa!yhoo I don't know what to do anymore!)
Nozibele:Ubulindele ntoni wena?uZingisa wenza kanye lento ubuyenza wena ,nawe wawumthanda kanje uNozizwe ,andaz ukuba kutheni ungafuni umntwana athandane nalomuntu wakhe ,andazi kutheni uvisa unyana wakho ubuhlungu , uZingisa mnike ixesha akhe azicinge kodwa ulumke ,ungaphulukana nonyana wakho Zwilakhe ,isala kutyelwa sibona ngolophu ,ungalithatha ihashi ulise emanzini kodwa angeke ulinyanzele ekubeni lisele amanzi(What did you expect?Zingisa is doing what you were doing ,you were also madly in love with Nozizwe ,I don't know why don't you let the child to be with the woman he loves ,I don't understand why do you hurt your son like this ,give Zingisa some time to think and process this whole thing ,but be careful ,you can easily lose your son Zwilakhe ,you'll regret this)
There's more to my mother's and father's love ,why would my aunt say something like that?that's why my father doesn't want to talk about how my mom and him met ,now I'm really interested in knowing about how they met.I decided to bath ,luckily there were some water in my hut so I used the water and bathed ,I really want to go back to Mbali but I can't ,I don't trust my father he might follow me and then kill Mbali ,I don't want any mistakes with Mbali now ,she has been through so much and I want her to get some peace of mind ,I'll check up on her tomorrow morning ,I don't mind walking that distance ,seeing her ,is what brightens my day ,I love my brown skinned girl.When I was deep in my thoughts ,someone knocked.
Zingisa:Ndifuna ukuba ndodwa!(I want to be alone!)
Zimkhitha:Ndicela uvule ,ndikuphathele ukutya(Please open up ,I brought you some food)
I opened up for her as I was starving ,remember I didn't eat when I was with my partner so I'm hungry people
Zingisa:(Taking the food)Enkosi(Thank you)
Zimkhitha:Singathetha bhuti?(Can we talk brother?)
Zingisa:Hayibo?sithethe ngantoni?senditsho ukuba mna nawe asithethi Zimkhitha (What?talk about what?I mean we barely talk Zimkhitha)
Zimkhitha:Ndicela undiboleke nje indlebe zakho kuphela(May please just listen to what I'm about to say to)
Zingisa:Ngena ke sihlale phantsi(Get inside then so that we can sit down and talk)
She got inside the hut and we sat down
Zimkhitha:Ndikhathazekile ngawe bhuti ,awonwabanga tu apha ekhaya ,umoya wakho uphantsi kwaye loo nto iyandikhathaza kwaye ayikulungelanga ,ukuba bhuti ubona ingathi awubathandi ooNthabi kutheni ungabayeki nje?ngaphandle kokuba uyazilimaza ngalento yakho nalomuntu wakho othi uyamthanda ,uyabahlukumeza abafazi bakho emoyeni ,bayabona ukuba kukho into ethile ngawe qha abazi ukuba yintoni.Bakhulule bhuti ,ubavise ubuhlungu kwanele ngoku bakhulule ,ndiyakucela.(I'm worried about you bro ,you're not happy at all here ,you're so down and that makes me worry about you even more and that is not good for you ,if you see that you no longer love your wives then why don't you let them go?not that you're only hurting yourself nor your unknown lover but you're also hurting your wives ,they can see that you've changed but they don't know what causes that change.Set them free bro ,you've been hurting them and now it's enough ,please let them go)
She is making sense and that is what I was planning to do but my father wouldn't allow this ,I still want to show him that I love Mbali not my wives ,I don't care though but I still want his blessings people ,what's the point of loving someone but hide her or him from people ,I mean I feel like I'm not loving Mbali right even though the situation forces me to hide her even though I don't want to.Its so embarassing that I'm being told this by my little sister ,it's annoying man!
Zingisa:Andizukwazi ukuyenza lo nto Zimkhitha ngenxa katata(I can't do that Zimkhitha all because of dad)
Zimkhitha:Uchaza ukuthi bhuti utata uyivimba ngantoni lo nto?ngokuba zezakhe ezinkomo akalobole ngazo?(What do you mean bro ,that dad is not allowing that to happen just because he paid lobola with his cows?)
Zingisa:Zezinye zezizathu ezo dade ,kodwa sikhona isizathu esikhulu ukogqitha eso (That's one of the reasons sis' ,but there's this reason that is bigger than any other reason behind this)
Zimkhitha:(Her face was puzzled)Utheth' ukuba?(What do you mean?)
Zingisa:Ungandiva kakubi dade kodwa le yona andifuni kukuxelela mna ,inkulu Kakhulu kwaye ndidikiwe ngabantu abandohlulela oko(Don't get me wrong sis' but I can't tell you this ,it's so shocking and I don't want to be judged anymore)
Zimkhitha:Kutheni ndizakohlulela ndingekabi kwimeko okuyo wena?andizuyenza lo nto qha ndingakuzela neqhinga elithile nje kuphela ,kodwa ukuba awufuni kuthetha ,ayikho into endizakuyenza mna ,andizukunyanzela(Why would I judge you meanwhile I've never been in your shoes?I won't do that but I can advise you ,but if you don't want to talk then I won't force you to)
I never thought my sister was this wise ,I mean how could she say something like that?my mother should be proud of her ,I mean I'm proud of her to begin with and she always reminds me of mom ,she looks exactly like her ,from her smile ,body size ,yes my mother was light in weight ,her skin colour and the colour of the hair.
Zingisa:Ndithandana nentombi kaGatsheni(I'm in love with Gatsheni's daughter)
Zimkhitha:(Covered her mouth in shock and her eyes were so wide open)Ndikuve kakuhle?(Did I hear you properly?)
Zingisa:(Stood up)Yabo wenza lento kanye bowuthi awuzuyenza ,phuma Zimkhitha ,enkosi ngokutya kodwa hamba(You see now you're doing what you said you wouldn't do ,get out Zimkhitha ,thank you for the food but leave)
Zimkhitha:Uxolo ukuba uyibona ngalondlela kodwa andikwahluleli Zingisa qha ndimangele(I'm sorry if you see it in that way but I'm not judging you Zingisa just that I'm shocked)
I just gave her a straight and she smiled at me weirdly so
Zimkhitha:Hlala phantsi bhuti(Sit down bro)
I did take a sit and already I was bored because she's going to tell me that I should leave Mbali alone ,I'm going to get us killed bluh bluh bluh and that thing bores me because I know that's what's going to happen if they don't give us their blessings but I'm not leaving the love of my life just because of that ,I love that GIRL!.
Zimkhitha:Uyamthanda?(Do you love her?)
Zingisa:(I smiled)Ewe ,kakhulu ,ngathi le yokuba ndiyamthanda incinci into ,indlela endiziva ngayo ngaye igqitha ukumthanda nelo gama lika thanda ,ndiphilela yena mna(Yes ,a lot ,me saying that I love her is not a huge thing to say ,how I feel about her is beyond loving her and the name love ,I live for her)
Zimkhitha:Omg!you're in love I can see it in your eyes ,when I asked you that question your mood changed ,she became the light in your life ,everything is better when you think of her ,I understand why you can't leave her
Zingisa:Ewe dade , ndiyamthanda (Yes sis' ,I love her)
Zimkhitha:Then keep on fighting ,that's my advice ,yonke into izakulunga emva kokuba ulwile(, everything's going to be fine after you've fought for her)
I just smiled at her ,she's right people ,I have to keep on fighting for our love ,she's worth fighting for.So Zimkhitha left me there and I ate my food and decided to go to Dumile.I heard some noise coming from his hut and that's strange people because Dumile is not a loud person and he doesn't approve fights so I rushed there and I found Sindiswa and Thantaswa fighting ,and what is Thanti doing here to begin with?Dumile is reprimanding them ,yhooo kubi(yhoo it's bad) ,and what are they fighting for to begin with?
Zingisa:Hayibo kutheni nisilwa nje ,kuqhubekani Du?(Geez why are you guys fighting ,what's happening Du?).
Sindi:(Pointing at me)Wena!!uphi uMbali!!?ungayenza kanjani into enje kuMbali!(You!!where's Mbali?!!how could you do this to Mbali!)
No this woman is crazy or maybe it's the pregnancy ,I mean what have I done now ,I've  just arrived but she's attacking me already , crap!!.and what is she talking about?no this woman !
Zingisa:Du!kuqhubekani?!(Du!what's going on?!)
He didn't even reply me ,he just took a sit and drank his water ,can you believe this guy!
Sindi:Yeka uDumile ,ngikhuluma nawe!(Leave Dumile alone ,I'm talking to you!)
Zingisa:Andina xesha lamageza mna sisi ,ndizakuphendula xa wehlise umoya(I don't have time for crazy people lady ,I'll answer you once you're calm)
Lihle:(Holding her)Lento oyenzayo ayimlungelanga neze umntwana ,ngicela uhlise umoya ,ayikho into ezolunga usarasa(What you're doing is not good for the child ,please calm down ,there won't be any progress as long as you're still yelling)
She then helped her to take a sit
Lihle:Kungcono kukhulume mina Sindi(I think it's best if I'm the one who speaks)
Sindi didn't even answer ,she just kept on brushing her baby bump ,weird!I just took a sit.
Lihle:Ukuphi uMbali Zingisa?(Where's Mbali. Zingisa?)
I didn't know how to answer this ,I can't break my promise to Mbali and put her life on risk as she said that Sindi might tell their father and Sindi doesn't even like me but I know why and I understand but I don't want her to disrespect me ,I don't like that at all ,she must just shut up if she have nothing positive to say and why is Thantaswa here?After Lihle asked that ,I looked at Dumile
Dumile:(Cleared his throat)Kukho into ekufuneka ndinixelele yona(I have something to tell you)
Lihle:Khuluma phela(turned to me)umbuzo wam usamile kepha ngiyeza kuwena(Talk then*my question still stands but I'll come back to you)
Tough*
Dumile:(Cleared his throat)UMbali akekho kwaye asazi ukuba uphi ,sivuke ekseni engekho(Mbali is not here and we don't know where she is ,we woke up in her absence)
They just popped their eyes out and Lihle stood up and banged the table ,I didn't know this person was like that ,I'm shocked people ,I mean this girl is so quiet and self collected
Lihle:Angizwanga!!!(What!!!)
Thanti:Ehlisa umoya sisi(Calm down lady)
Lihle:Ngizokusakaza ngempama mina sisi ungangijwayeli Kabi ,ngizohlisa umoya kanjan usisi wam elahlekile ,ayiqali ukwenzeka lento phela futhi ngicela uyekele ukungena izindaba ezingakufuni(turned to me)uyimoshile impilo kaMbali wena skhohlakali ndini somfana uyezwa?!njalo uMbali kunento embi emehlele njengoba ufike watheleka empilweni yakhe(turned to Dumile)bowukhamisele kuphi ke wena?!besikuthembile kepha buka usiphoxile ,angaya kuphi uMbali engayazi le ndawo?!(I'll slap you so hard lady don't you dare get dirty with me and tell me that I should calm down meanwhile my baby sister is missing ,she's not missing for the first time to begin with so I should be worried and please don't interfere in matters that don't involve you*you've ruined Mbali's life you evil man ,do you hear me?!everytime something bad happens to her ever since she met you*what were you doing?!we trusted you but look you've disappointed us ,where could she go because she doesn't even know this place?!)
Dumile:Ungandizi ngomva emzini wam sisi ,into yokungxola kwakho ayizumbuyisa uMbali imbeke apha nditsho noba ungasibetha sinoZingisa ,enye into ndicela uhlale phantsi wehlise umoya sikhe sitye amathamb' engqondo sicinge ukuba angabaphi na ,ndiphinde ndikucele ukuba ungaphinde uthethe noThantaswa ngendlela othethe naye ngayo ,anizuza apha kwam nifike nilwe nathi ngentombi endala kangaka enye ke into ndicela imbeko kuni kwaye ndicela nimhloniphe uThantaswa kuba yindwendwe yam ,ukuba niziva ingathi aniyiva yonke le nto ndiyithethayo ,ndicela ningaphinde nize apha.Nawe Sindiswa xa ufuna ukubona uAyabonga yena uzakuza le eDitsietseng ,andizuqhelwa nini kakubi kaloku.(Don't talk to me standing while I'm seated lady ,you yelling won't make any difference ,Mbali won't come back just because you're yelling and even if you decide to beat me and Zingisa up for that matter ,and another thing please sit down so that we can think about where Mbali could be ,I should also plead with you that don't you ever speak to Thantaswa like that ever again ,you can't come to my house and argue with us about a grown up woman like Mbali and another thing please respect me and Thantaswa as she is my visitor ,if you feel like you are not willing to do so or you didn't get me ,please don't come back to my house ever again.And you too Sindiswa ,if you feel that way ,you won't be welcomed here and when you want to see Ayabonga ,he'll go to Ditsietseng)
Hectic!I didn't know this might come to this and what's funny to me is that Lihle was fighting and Dumile wasn't when he was saying this.But he has a good point ,these people are disrespecting the man's house ,they can't be yelling like little kids.Silence stroke ,and Sindiswa broke it by breathing so heavily and unable to breathe ,she was holding her baby bump and couldn't sit properly and everyone rushed to her and helped her ,Thanti helped her with drinking water
Dumile:Yintoni Sindiswa?(What is it Sindi?)
Sindiswa:Ingane.......ahhhhh.....ingane....ahhh...ahhhh(The baby ....... Ahhhh......the baby ......Ahhhh.... Ahhhh)
Ayabonga walked in and rushed to his mother too
Ayabonga: Kuqhubekani ngomama tata?(what's happening with mom?)
Dumile:Andazi nyana (I don't know son)
Lihle:Breathe in and out
She did what she was told by her sister ,Lihle and broke the sequence and streamed
Sindi:Ahhhhhh(Crying) Ingane (The baby)
Lihle:Omg she's ready to give birth
Thanti:Mbekeni ebhedini ,alale ngomqolo(Put her on bed ,she must lie with her  back)
They did just that ,no ain't no way I'm watching this ,so I remained at the kitchen and I drank water ,it was me and Ayabonga
Zingisa:Sowuzoba nosisi okanye ubhuti(You're going to have a sister or a brother)
Aya:Ewe bhuti(Yes bro)
He looked anxious about this ,he really wanted to go see but he didn't.I believe that the screams and cries were triggering something in him.Women go through a lot people heyyy!giving birth ,geez!!
Dumile then came back with blood in his hands.
Ayabonga:(Popped his eyes out)Hayibo tata niyamxhela lomntu Kanti ,kutheni wanegazi ezandleni?(Geez dad are you slaughtering this person ,why are your hands filled with blood?)
Me and Dumile just laughed ,no this guy isn't serious maybe he's just cracking a joke ,no!
Dumile:(Laughing still)Ehlisa umoya Bonga nyana ,uzakuyiqonda yonke le nto mhla wena noZimkhitha niba nosana(Calm down Bonga my son ,you'll understand once you and Zimkhitha decide to have a baby)
Zingisa:Andiyithandi nokuyithanda le nto yakho nosisi wam kodwa ungumntu olungileyo(I don't like the fact that you and my sister are in a relationship but you're a good person)
He just smiled and Dumile left us ,surely he was going to wash his hands or something then after 5 minutes came back again and joined me and Ayabonga
Aya: Kuqhubekani pha tata?,iyandidika le nto yokulinda(What's happening there dad?I don't like this waiting thing)
Dumile:Ima kancinci nyana ,sebegqibile inoba ngoba umama wakho akasalili ngoku (Be patient son ,they are done surely because your mother is no longer crying and screaming now)
Lihle and Thantaswa came back with blood on their hands and they washed their hands too and joined us
Dumile:Ugqibile?(Did she give birth?)
Lihle:Yebo(Yes)
Dumile:Wenze umsebenzi omhle s'thandwa(You did an amazing job love)
And they both smiled at each other and Dumile kissed her on the cheek ,wow I can't believe it!!.
