Slindokuhle's POV:
I had the weirdest dream ever. I was with Siya, and surprisingly, I was pregnant. Weird.
I waltzed down the stairs to make lunch for school. It was a cozy Friday, yippee! I sliced some pineapples and strawberries into a small lunchbox.
Mom went to work, which means I have to take a taxi. On my way to the taxi rank, an old woman bumps into me. What's wrong with me ? and bumping into people, nxa.
: "Bazo twala ngawe..."
What? My facial expression completely changed, and a big frown plastered on my face.
Slindokuhle: "Are you talking to me?"
: "Ingozi, baleka..."
She walked away, and I've never felt so creeped out. I shake the thought away and go to school.
Neo arrived early and was waiting for me at the gate.
She pulled me into a hug.
Neo: "Bathong bestie!! O kae?"
Slee: "Kodwa Mika ngiyakhuluma Neo?"
She rolls her eyes and releases me from her warm embrace.
Neo: "I know. I know. So what happened yesterday? I mean you and him??"
I sigh as we walk into the school.
I told Neo everything, and of course, I broke down. Neo held me tight and reassured me that I'll be fine. I will try to be fine. He was my first and last boyfriend. HOPEFULLY!
It was now English, and I came super early to the class. A tall, dark skinned giy was sitting on the teacher's table. It looked like they were flirting?
Abatwana be skolo kodwa?
The fragrance hit my nostrils, and it was the one and only Sthembiso Zulu. The student teacher seemed to be giggling at his comment. And yerr, she was forcing it.
I cleared my throat.
Slee: "Sawubona, mam."
Sthe: "Sawubona yani? It's an English class. Bengisaxela o khulume ngesingisi?"
I roll my eyes and drop my bag on my table. I walk up to them. He was still on the table, hovering over me. His eyes fixated on mine as he continued to suck his lolipop. My eyes watched every movement he made. His breathing. I could hear his heartbeat pounding. The heck was I thinking?
Slee: " HI MAM! How are you today?"
I looked at Sthe to see him laughing as I punched his shoulder.
Sthe: " Haibo?"
Slee: "This is an English class. Fix yourself."
I felt confident and walked to my seat.
It has been a LONG DAY. Recently, I've been having weird dreams, but it was almost break, so I didn't care.
I texted Neo by telling her that I'm on my way.
On my way, I bumped into someone else. YERR!
I looked up to see Siya.
Siya: "You love me, neh?"
Slee: "In your lucid dreams?"
He laughs. "Where are you going to?"
Slee: "To meet up with Neo. It's break, Siya. Where's your brain?"
Siya: " Left it e life science."
We laugh our heads off. Siya was really funny, unlike that thing of his.
He accompanied me to Neo.
: "Slee?"
His voice was deeper and more serious than before.
Sthe: "Don't you wanna come for my party this Saturday?"
Slee: "Huh?"
He started scratching his head.
Siya: "A party, Saturday at 6 pm."
Slee: "I don't think -"
Neo:" She will be there, including me, Siya hawu. O byang kanti wena?"
Siya claps his hands. "Perfect!"
I stare daggers at Neo.
Neo:" Yini?? You were slow, so I helped you!"
She skips in happiness and walks towards the bench.
