My mother death took me back a bit and just like that a photo of her wearing the most beautiful ring on her finger was posted with him hold her hand “ Introducing my heart in a human form” my heart got poked so hard and I couldn’t breathe not could I do anything as I screamed once going to the floor as my uncles came rushing to me. I heard one of the nurses say she having a panic attack as I felt my airways block and getting dizzy and hit the floor hard. I knew I wasn’t going to make it. Iv failed as a Queen and as a daughter..

I saw my dad look at Donny. We went inside and he roared.
Dad: What did you do to her???
Me: dad!!!
Mom: Hlelo!!!
Dad: She won’t just cry... he did something
Donny: We pregnant
I looked at him, i really didn’t want them to go through the pain with us if things go south.
Me: Don!!
Iv never seen my parents this excited. Dad picked me up screaming and kissing me all over.
Mom: Am going to be a grandmother?
That question hurt and I cried as they looked at me confused.
Don: We had miscarriages before and we fear...
Mom held me tight kissing my face.
Mom: we will get through it all trust the process that God making you go through!!
In that moment it felt like all is going to be well. I felt the love in the room as she held me tight as if am some precious cargo.

I woke up to find her sprawled on me with bite marks all over her body and neck. She shifted and opened her eyes to find me staring at her and smiled. This I can wake up too everyday.
Me: Hey
Zobuhle: Hi
I smiled as her voice was roughed out and she looked throughly loved. I turned switched on the TV and watched the news with her cuddled up next to me. Some Swazi land Queen died after a weird death of her mother. We watched the rest of the news and just I was about to switch it off the entertainment news broke in.
Anchor: Mr Zungu our prince broke the internet yesterday when he announced his engagement to the world and as if earth was agreeing the sky was marvellous. Congratulations to him and yes we found out who the young lady is Zobuhle Majola.
Zobuhle
I watched in fear as the anchor smiled uttering my name and a picture of me sitting at a coffee shop about a year ago with Nozipho popped up.
Anchor: This young woman is from soweto was born in a loving home by Sipho and Thandi. She has a younger sister Keabetswe. She graduated from high school at a young age and finished her business management diploma in UJ. She later married her high school sweetheart Kabelo Majola and was married to him for 7 full years and they later divorced amicably since there were no court appearances and no kids. That is than that our prince Hlanganani who have been with multiple suitors but never seen in public with them or confirmed the relationship as public as he was with Ms Majola. These two took us by storm and we all anticipating what next. A close family source says both the Current King and Queen are ecstatic with the young lady and the world is happy that love knows no blue blood even a commoner can be and will be Queen. That it from me this morning, let pray that both Hlanganani and Zobuhle answer my call in regards to joining us here some time.
I kept quiet for sometime and looked at him he looked at me.
Motlahgodi: Mom going to help you sort things out and manage yourself. Being a Queen is a job but I think for now you will talk to her and see what you want to do first, no pressure, take your time.
Me: I have to call home and call my sister and...
Motlahgodi: Call your sister?
Me: Let her know...
He looked at me and kept quiet.
Me: She is my sister.
Motlahgodi: How about I pour us some water and I help you detox?
I saw him flexing his jaws and I know his pissed. I looked at him.
Me: she is my sister!!!
I whispered.
Motlahgodi: Amazing how she forgot that when she slept with your ex, got pregnant by him and sent you a pregnancy stick just to spit you!!!
Me: She is young!!!
Motlahgodi: Ill go pour us water.
I held him before he left and he looked at me still hiding his anger but I could see it brewing in there.
Me: Iv forgiven her.
Motlahgodi: Remember people treat you the way that you allow them too. He kissed my forehead and left. She is my sister though and people make mistakes!!!
