Ndlalifa clicks his glass getting everyone's attention I'm standing next to him looking like a trophy wife " uhm I want to start by thanking everyone for honoring our invite thank you for coming to celebrate our love with us we have been in love for 7 years but married for 5 years Nothando,mkami" he says looking at me smiling "you are my guiding light, my confidante I promise to always seek your advice , to value your wisdom and to cherish our partnership" I smiled at him " I promise the same , my love together let us continue to build a life filled with love , laughter and adventure " we kissed earning a clap. John Legends song all of you plays in background we look at each other smiling I see a memory flash in his eyes the first time when we declared our love in front of everyone was on our wedding day, I was young and drunk in love thinking marriage is a fairytale, but I don't regret marrying him.

People are now eating, Ndlalifa is sitting with his brothers, and I am making sure that every guest is fine as I am talking with my aunt from my mother's side the girl from earlier on approaches me, I seriously need to know who she is and who invited her because she's becoming a nuisance " it seems like you have an agenda ,miss, everywhere I go you go ngabe ikhona inkinga mhlape" I say folding my hands " whuu slow down tiger angizile ukuzolwa "she says raising her hands laughing I shut my mouth still looking at her " Yazi Nothando you need to be humble considering the fact  that you have a past of being a homewrecker karma might knock on your door sooner than you thought it will " she says smirking " wazini wena ngempilo yami ungalinge ungijwayele kabi ntombazane ndini" I say poking her forehead I see Ndlalifa and his brothers making their way to us my mother is now holding my hands " Nkosikazi kwenzakalani " he asks getting between us before matters escalate " your wife attacked me " she says crying oh crocodile tears  " hawu kahleni bo sengaze ngibanjwe kanje ngenzeni kangaka ngoba phela uyena lo " I say pointing her " ofike lana wazenza bad bitch kumina " Ndlalifa looks at her and shakes his head " by the way angiyena uyena I have a name and it's Nomsa" she walks away.
