*NATHI'S POV*

Tshiriletso's beauty is a sunrise – gentle, yet radiant. Her skin glows with a warm, golden light, as if infused with the warmth of a summer dawn. Her eyes, bright and expressive, shine like stars on a clear night sky.

Her lips, full and inviting, curve into a smile that can light up an entire room.

But what truly sets my soul ablaze is the beauty that emanates from within her. Her compassion, her empathy, her unwavering optimism – these qualities illuminate her very being, making her a beacon of hope and light.I mean that's what her name means.

In Tshiriletso's presence, I feel seen, heard, and understood. Her beauty is a sanctuary, a haven where I can be myself, without fear or pretense.I don't know this girl but I speak of her as if I know her

Ohhh Hi,My name is Nkosinathi Khuzwayo.Im 28 years old and live in Soshanguve in a estate.I own a bunch of restaurants .

I have to find this girl and make her mine.Ever since our encounter at the mall ,I haven't stopped thinking about her.I even forgot the whole reason why I even went to the mall.So I drove home and made a call

Me:Eish bafo,I need a favour

Lwazi:Ufunani?

Me:I need you to find all the information about a girl named Tshiriletso Mokoena

Lwazi:Why

Me:Yeka ukungibuza imibuzo, ngizokutshela (Stop asking me questions I will tell you)

Lwazi:Ok I will get you your info by tomorrow

Me:Thanks Lil bro

I hang up,And went back to bed ,I tried sleeping but I kept on tossing and turning.I couldn't sleep all I had in my mind was my future wife.I think I love this girl.Is this what we call love at first sight .I finally fell asleep making up scenarios about Tshiriletso.

I woke up went to shower and wore a casual fit.Then made my bed and went downstairs to make breakfast.I ate and finished and got a call from Lwazi

Lwazi:I got the info

Me:Ngitshele (tell me)

Me:Who said I like her?

Lwazi:Me and you both know that you don't go around asking for girls numbers from me.

Me:Mxm ,You will meet her soon, bye

I hang up and start thinking

I hope she won't be afraid of my demons.My  brockeness.My bleeding heart.I still haven't healed,yeah partly.I will just have to hide these demons.But will I hide them forever.What am I even saying, we're not even dating,But I like her .

The whole day I've been thinking of her and she can't leave my mind.So I decided to call her

Me:Hey beautiful

Her: Nkosinathi?

Me:I'm surprised you remember me

Her:I never forget,anyways where did you get my number?

Me:I'm a man with many hidden talents

She laughs softly

Her laughter... it's like sunlight breaking through clouds.

Warmth spreads through my chest, easing the ache.

For a moment, my demons fade.

Tshiriletso's joy is infectious, contagious.even through the phone

When she laughs, the world stops.

Time freezes.

All that exists is her.

And I'm drawn to that light.

Her laughter makes me feel...

Seen.

Heard.

Understood.

It's a balm to my soul.

A gentle reminder that happiness exists.

That maybe, just maybe...

I can find it with her.

Me:Hope?

Her:Yeah?

Me: Who'd you make the happiest man on earth and let me take you out?

Her:For a second I thought you were that crazy to propose to me

Me:I am that crazy,But unfortunately it's just a date

Her:Sure what time?

Me:at 11:00am

Her:Okay ,have a good night

Me:You too princess

She hangs up.This girl is driving me crazy.I wonder if she's the one,If I drive her crazy?
