Zinhles POV
After Khathu left for his dads house I decide to make a Sunday kos because I haven't made him that so why not today on a cold Sunday. Anyways I am defrosting the meat while chopped and peeled my vegetables while listening to maverick city my favourite band fr.
So as I was cooking and vibing I get a call from an unknown number. I first think to not answer the call but something in me says answer it. So I answered it.
"hello?" I answer
"hello is this Mrs Zinhle Mulaudzi?" the unknown person says. I know they know me from Khathu because I haven't changed my surname yet.
"yes this is she." I respond
"yes ma'am I am calling from netcare waterfall emergency care. You're husband has been involved in a car accident." She says and my head starts spinning. What do you mean my husband has been involved in a car accident.
"excuse me what? When was this? Is he okay? WHERE THE HELL IS MY HUSBAND." I say crying.
"he is currently in the OR. But please come to the hospital you are needed here. I advise you come with someone. Goodbye Mrs Mulaudzi" she says then drops. After she drops I just start sobbing. God can't make him leave me now. We just started falling inlove. I started being comfortable with him. He can't die right now. the first thing I do is call my brother Scelo.
I call him and he answered me. "my dear baby sister." He greet in a joyful tone.
"bhuti, he is in the hospital. He got into a car accident." I say while crying. My heartbreaks while saying that I can't believe it.
"ubani?(who)" he asked me concerned
"uKhathu uthole icar accident bhuti." I say crying
"Nini?Kanjani? ukuphi wena?" he asked me
" I am at home I just got the call telling me that he is in the hospital." I say
" okay I'll call his family. I'll meet at the hospital. Nana please calm down before you drive we don't want you getting hurt too. We'll meet you there neh. He will be okay neh?" he reassures me and drops the phone.
I quickly run upstairs and change my clothes take my car keys. Before I leave I pray in the car. "dear heavenly father, thank you for everything you have done for me. what have you doing to be is not cool. Why do continue to harm the people I love. What do you mean he got into an accident. I love him I can't bare another loss to be honest. I started living again and now this. Please protect him lord, help the doctors save him help them make the correct direction with him. I pray you keep and protect him. Keep him for himself and for me father. Amen." I start the car and drive to the hospital.

(the hospital)
I arrive and go to reception lady. "hello I am Mrs Mulaudzi. I am here for Mr Khathutshelo Mulaudzi." I say in a rushed manner. She tells me that he is still in surgery in urgent care so she calls a nurse and they take me to waiting room. While I wait I pray for protection and a miracle to happen until I see my brother and enters with his wife they hug me and asked me if there are any updates and I said no not yet. Then his two brothers (Funanani and Hulisani)arrived aswell. We waited for another hour until the doctors comes in.
"Khathutshelo Mulaudzi." He says and we all stand up.
"Yes that's my husband." I say standing up waiting for him to speak.
"well firstly I can say that it is truly a miracle that he survived the accident. It was really bad we managed to save him. But we are not sure if he is going to wake up. The car accident really did damage to his head but he will be fine. He did break his shoulder blade and we managed to fix that. And he fractured his knee cap as well. But managed to safe him but we need someone to help with blood transfusion because he did loss quite a lot of blood." Wow that's a lot to take in but what scares me is that we don't know if he will wake up or not. But me and his brothers did offer to donate blood.
"can we see him yet?" I ask
"not yet we need to do the blood transfusion." He says he tells us the nurses will come and take our blood and see if we are a match. I hope he makes it alive. But this is so suspicious because the car he used just came from being serviced so it should not be having such issues. If anything it should be working just as great. So I decide to talk to my brother inlaw Huli. "I find this thing very odd because the car came back from being serviced. How do the brakes fail. We need to find the person who is responsible for this. I want to see them gone." I say talking to Hulisani and Scelo.
After the blood donation luckily I am a match to I donated my blood and waited another hour until we are allowed to see him. I asked to move him to a private room for privacy reasons and I don't want people to see me ugly cry. Seeing him like this breaks my hurt. He looks so helpless. With so many wires and the machines. The bandages in him. I just start sobbing holding his hand. "Baby please wake up. I am here for you." I say talking to him but no answer sadly.
(two days later)
It's been two days since the whole accident, and he has not woken up yet. He has been brought back to life 4 times already. Hearing the machines making those sounds and them escorting me outside to save him is not a good sight to see. My mother and father-in-law have arrived from Venda and they came. But right now they are at their house their coming later. When his dad saw him you could see that he loves his son. I hope my husband comes back I hope a miracle happens. I haven't eaten in days and I have only showered. I'm living off water and lays. I can't stomach any food.
So the doctor came in and told me that if he doesn't wake up in the next two days they are going to switch of the machines and see what happen. They had me sign a DNR that broke my heart. He can't leave me here alone.
Now we are waiting. My mother in law, father in law, sisters in law, brothers in law and my brother. We are all just waiting for him to wake up. I am sitting on the chair holding his hand. While I was holding his hand I felt his hand move. At first it was my imagination then I felt him squeezing my hand. My eyes quickly opened because I was napping.
" baby wake up, I am here, I am here vuka baby ngiyacela." I say talking to me
"Nana he is in the coma he can't hear you." My brother says
" Bhuti I felt him squeeze my hand," I say and he does it again "he is doing it again" I say with tears in my eyes. Then he opens his eyes but the machines starts making those sounds again. and all the nurses comeback and tell us to leave and the doctors enters.
This is truly a miracle he is awake. God is really good. My husband is back with us. I go on my knees and start praying thanking God while crying. Because he saved my man. he protected him for me.
