Simamkele's pov:
I fit my dress for the last time,it looks perfect on me. I can't wait for tomorrow,I'm not a really big fan of makeup though. I take it off before wearing my jeans again. Yes,today I'm wearing jeans and a cropped shirt. It's hot,okay? I'm not trying to impress anyone. I walk out with the dress on the hanger and the other girls are chatting amongst themselves. We're in Snothando's room. Today is the day before the wedding,they're leaving to sleep at the venue but I've got to sleep at home because mom and Olivia just arrived and I can't let them sleep alone. Mr Sangweni is braaing meat with the boys outside,I haven't seen anyone because I arrived 10 minutes ago. There's family members that have arrived today and will sleep over at her dads house. I heard Ndabe is also outside. I'm really excited to see him,we've been talking over the phone. It's quite nice. He's nice.
"Let's go party a little then girls" Snothando says
"No heavy drinks for you" I warn her
"I know darling,besides I'm the older one" she says and we laugh "there's a bunch of guys outside too"
"Yes yes yes" Lilly says
"And Ndabe is off limits" Sam says
"Because you're about to throw yourself at him?" Snothando asks with a raised eyebrow. Sam gasps
"No" she pushes her chin up "because I've seen how he acts around Mila" oh my gosh,here we go again
"Guys no,Ndabe is literally nothing but nice to me because I'm his sisters best friend and if anything happened to me his sister would be devastated" I repeat what he said to me
"That's what he told you?" Lilly asks
"Yes" I respond
"Ndabe is so obsessed with me" Snithando says opening the door. I take my phone,checking for any new messages
"Then we're definitely scouting him tonight" Sam says making me chuckle. We walk out to the lawn where most people are,boo and her grooms maids are also here. Nkosi slips from the guys he's with and comes to hug me
"I haven't seen you in forever" he says letting go. I smile at him
"I know,you've grown" I say making him laugh. Musa also comes by to hug me
"Long time no see sis" he says smiling
"Hawu sis?I'm not baby anymore?" I ask acting hurt
"Ndabe will kill me" he says looking over at him,making me look over at him. He's with guys that look around his age. All these guys are well built and have nice style
"Yes,you're off limits now" Nkosi adds. Luckily we were standing away from the girls otherwise Snothando would flip hearing this
"Come on guys,please don't do that,there's nothing going on between Ndabe and I"
"Okay okay,want to meet our friends?" Musa asks. I look at him
"No" he sighs "you know my situation"
"You need to get out of your shell" Nkosi says
"Why would I meet your friends?" I ask them
"So they could see how good looking our sister in law is" they laugh at my reaction
"You guys are out of line" I say before leaving them to go sit down. Boo and her grooms maids come sit with us. Ndabe walks towards us. Even the way he walks is all that. He's wearing beige chinos with a white long sleeved shirt,with the sleeves rolled up and two buttons undone. His shirt is neatly tucked in and his white sneakers match the whole outfit. I get busy on my phone trying not to look up
