PETU'S POV
Sunday morning, I woke up early going to the kitchen. I'd had such an amazing night with my boyfriend and girlfriend. In between studies, we spent some time together, our conversations were flowing and honest with each other. Seeing Mnqobi kissing Notha no longer hurt me, if anything I enjoyed seeing that. She's started becoming a little free and affectionate. She still doesn't like general touching and cuddling but she lets Mnqobi do it every once in a while. Zimmy was making breakfast.
Petu: "My babe."
Zimmy: "Hey you."
Petu: "Did you sleep well?" She sighed.
Zimmy: "Not really. I'm worried Petu. Sibonelo didn't come back from the palace and I didn't want to burden him with questions. He just kept asking how I was throughout the night. This morning he called, letting me know he's still there and I should stay with you guys."
Petu: "This must be serious."
Zimmy: "Petu what if something happened to Sasa?" Her voice quivered. She was ready to cry.
Petu: "let's not worry about something that we don't know. Sibonelo will update us if there's a problem. Remember he was hands on when she got shot and he was honest."
Zimmy: "To you. I wasn't told anything. What if.."
Petu: "Zimasa, things are different now. You're carrying his child. Yes he's trying to protect you but stop thinking he's hiding things from you because he thinks you're not important. You are important to him now. To the family. I know you're still hurt we never disclosed that incident when it happened but now, we won't hide anything. I promise. Also, let this man protect his child. He doesn't want you stressed." She chuckled. I know how close Zimmy was to Sasa. She would fall apart if anything happened to her. Especially since this pregnancy because she's become so emotional at everything.
Zimmy: "I'm sorry. I'm just feeling so weird today."
Petu: "You're pregnant. Just try not to stress. Let me make you food." I've dealt with pregnant Siza 3 times to understand how sensitive these people can be. I took over the cooking while she helped clean up. Siza came in the kitchen.
Siza: "Morning ladies."
Petu: "Hi sis. How are you?"
Siza: "Still a bit dizzy but I guess it's the sleeping pill still in my body. I need a lot of water."
Petu: "And food. Zimmy had already started, so I'm almost done."
Siza: "I don't have much of an appetite."
Petu: "That's okay. Some fruit then. To flush out the pill." She sat on the bar stool.
Zimmy: "Maybe a cocktail?"
Petu: "Zimmy!" Siza chuckled.
Siza: "We're going to suffer now that she's pregnant, we must drink on her behalf."
Zimmy: "It's going to be a long 7 more months for me." She laughed. After making breakfast, I went to go check on Mnqobi and Notha. She was still sleeping, Mnqobi was on the phone.
Mnqobi: "Yebo Baba. Okay, we'll be home soon. Sure." He hung up. "Good morning my butterfly." I climbed on the bed, next to him.
Petu: "Hey baby."
Mnqobi: "That was my father. He has ordered us to be back in Stellars within an hour. All of us."
Petu: "I was going to stay with Siza."
Mnqobi: "He mentioned her too. All of us baby." His phone rang again. "Sboni."
Sibo: "Are you on your way home?"
