My grandparents are Mlungisi & Ntokozo Cele

We get to my grandparents house in Mpumalanga and and park the car inside the garage and walk inside we greet and sit down

Gogo: Thato nguwe lo
Pops : ubukeka ekhulile uThato [ she looks grown] but let's hope you don't have a boyfriend or else I will kill that boyfriend of yours
Me: cha anginaye isoka [no I don't have a boyfriend]
Baba: let's hope so
Lwandle looks at me with that look of [ I'll tell on you]
Lwandle: let's hope she doesn't
They all hum in agreement

Nkosi: So gogo no pops how's life
Pops: life is good but since you are here not so good
We all laugh
Nkosi: what do you mean
Gogo: lutho Nkosi

I walk to my room to call my bestie Buhle
Yhoo this house is huge

I walk in and grab my phone from my handbag

Me: Hi pookie
Buhle: Hi sister
Me: unjani [how are you]
Buhle: ngiyaphila wena [ I'm good what about you]
Me : ngiyaphila
Buhle : How is Mpumalanga??
Me : not so bad
Buhle : ok . Bestie something happened well you were gone and it's about your boyfriend
Me : spill
Buhle: please don't over react
Me : Buhle man
Buhle : ok so what happened was that Zama and I found Malibongwe [ Malibongwe is my boyfriend] kissing Olwethu [ Olwethu is my enemy ] in Malibongwe's car . And told us to never mention it to you.

My heart sinked

Me : You mean Malibongwe which is my boyfriend and Olwethu which is my enemy
Buhle: yes.Sorry friend

Tears started rolling down my face

Me: Don't apologise for something you didn't do
Buhle: are you okay
Me : yes I'm okay. We will chat
Buhle: bye love you
Me : love you too pookie

I hang up and grab my towel and go shower

After I'm done showering I get a call from Malibongwe

Him: hey babe
Me : Hiii
Him : how are you
Me : I'm good
Him : you don't sound like it
Me : well I'm good

We continue talking about random things
And I  lotion my body than hang up . I wear my sweatpants and a tank top
I go downstairs and sit in the living room while watching [ Lobola Man ] on Netflix. Sphamandla joins me and we watch it together

When it ends Lwandle tells me to go to Woolworths and buy some few items .
