Koketso
****She started crying and left me wondering what is wrong with her. I went closer and she cried even harder. ***
Me: Goa what's wrong?
Goa: Please don't hurt me. You can take my car anything you want, just don't hurt me
Me: huh?
Goa: I want to go home.
Me: Okay let's go then.
****I tried touching her and she yanked my hand off her. I unlocked the office door and locked it after we exited. I led the way for her and we got to my car. I drove all the way to her apartment. She was quiet and not even looking at me. We arrived and went in her unit.***
Me: Are you going to be okay?
***She nodded her head yes. I left my car keys on her kitchen counter and left her place. I called Mvelo to fetch me and he arrived 20 minutes later. I got into the car and sighed***
Mvelo: Did you guys fight?
Me: Can we not talk about it?
Mvelo: Where is your car?
Me: I left it with her
Mvelo: Okay... Where are you going now?
Me: My place
Mvelo: okay
Me: Actually, please take me home
Mvelo: alright
Me: Did those two remain at the club?
Mvelo: No. They went out
Me: hmmm
****I kept thinking the whole way about what had just happened. I arrived home and just went straight to my bedroom. The following day, I woke up, made the bed and took a bath. After a long bath I applied lotion and chilled on the balcony in my boxers only. I kept fidgeting with my phone wondering if Goa is okay or not? Contemplating whether I should call her or not. I just did not know what to do. After a good hour and a half, I got dressed and made my way downstairs. ****
Dad: Koketso
Mom: You're home?
Me: yeah. Morning
Mom: Are you okay?
Me: I'm fine mom
Mom: sit down
****I sat down at the dinner table while she was busy left right and center****
