LIVE BY THE GUN, DIE BY THE GUN!

chapter 49

Very short insert

Manqoba

After Ndalo had sent me Nomhle's location, I drove like a maniac on the drove until I reached Umbilo Apartments. Getting inside the apartment wasn't a hassle as I had bribed the guard who immediately let me in after seeing a couple of R200 notes. I walked up the stairs, carrying my gun until I came across room 24. I furiously kicked down the door, causing Nomhle to scream, who also ran to the nearest room after seeing me and the gun. Unfortunately for her, I was much faster than her, so I grabbed her my her top and dragged her to the floor.
Nomhle: "Manqoba, please don't kill me." She clapped her hands together, begging me to spare her life.
Me: "Give me one good reason not to make you swallow this bullet after lamasimba owenzile." I said furiously.
Nomhle: "Im sorry for what I did, but I love you, Manqoba. " I pointed the gun at her head, and she screamed a little.
Woman: "Chomie, I heard screaming. What's going on?"
Me: "FOKOF!"  I shouted as I pointed the gun at the woman who I assumed was her neighbor. Her eyes grew wide and immediately vanished from the scene. I then pointed the gun at Nomhle and..
Voice: "Mami." Said a tiny voice that came from the other room. I looked towards that room, then back at Nomhle.
Me: "Who was that?" She wiped her tears.
Nomhle: "You.. your daughter." I lowered the gun, and the room started spinning. I walked towards the door, opened it, and to my surprise, was a little baby girl who was seated on the floor, with her Barbie dolls. I couldn't believe it. It was like I was looking at a female version of me and Mnqobi. She raised her little hands, signaling me to pick her up. I picked her up and went back to the living room where Nomhle was now seated on the couch. She stood up when she saw me.
Me: "How could you?" I whispered, still holding my baby girl in my arms.
Nomhle: "Im sorry Manqoba, but I couldn't tell you. I was just bitter from the fact that you left me." Excuse me?
Me: "Ungazong'dakelwa mina. How the fuck did I leave you when we weren't even dating." I could feel my anger rising.
Nomhle: "You.. your eyes." Of course, my eyes had changed color.
Me: "Go pack her things."
Nomhle: "What? No. You can't leave with her."
Me: "Don't piss me off, Nomhle. GO!" I shouted, almost giving my girl a fright. She ran to her room, and a couple minutes later, she came out holding a pink bag. She gave me the bag and then wiped her tears.
Nomhle: "If you want to take her, then you must marry me." TF!
Me: "Ungazong’jwayela kabi mina. What's her name, and how old is she?"
Nomhle: "She's 1, and her name is S'nqobile, but I haven't made her birth certificate. "
Me: "Good because I'm changing that shitty name." I said, and her head dropped in disappointment. I walked out of her apartment. I got in my car and drove to the gate. I signaled the guard to come to the car.
Me: "There's a woman in room 24 who needs her door fixed." He nodded and went inside the building. And me? I drove home with my little princess sleeping on top of me.

Continuation..

I sat in the car for a while, thinking about Khwezi's reaction to Mpande. Yes, I had decided to name her Mpandeyomanzini Zungu. Eventually, I got out of the car and went inside. I found Khwezi sitting on the couch and staring at the TV, which was off.
Me: "Sthandwa sam." I called out, and she turned around and looked at me. She stood up but stopped in her tracks when she saw Mpande.
Me: "Khwezi, I promise you I didn't cheat. Nomhle was once my fuck buddy but I ended things when I got serious with you. She didn't tell me about her." She kept quiet, then walked towards me, and took Mpande from my arms.
Khwezi: "What's her name?" She whispered.
Me: "Mpandeyomanzini." She nodded.
Khwezi: "Mpandeyomanzini Sbahle Zungu." She said before she headed upstairs with Mpande. I breathe out in relief. I smiled a bit at the name she gave her. My mom's name. I guess that went well!
