"Miss miss , wake up "
A silent tap on face I tried opening my eyes and the pain resurfaced on my body I was in a lot of pain I brushed my stomach not knowing what do to
a sharp manly smell hit my nostrils it was a white guy carrying me I had no strength to even try to refuse and fight
I used the little energy I had to breath I could barely open my left eye it was swollen
"What are we going to do with her ouma?"
"I don't know let's take her ti Vander merve "
I kept listening in on their conversations,the car came to a stop I felt hands picking me up again and the smell of medicine hit my nostrils and I passed out again

I woke up in a peach room , it wasn't the hospital it was just a beautiful peach room it wasn't massive it was just small , a lamp and some brown blinds I didn't even know if I was kidnapped but it would be nice getting a break kancane nje
The door opens just as I'm in deep thoughts
"Hello" it's the white guy that kept picking me up realization hits me that I'm no longer in pain I touch my head and I have a patch like a bandage covered I touch my stomach I'm obviously not going to feel anything but I'm choosing to have faith
"The baby is still there "I look at him , how did he even know
"Who are you ? Where am I ?"
"I am Andrew Smith "
"Son don't scare her " a white beautiful elderly lady comes in
"Ohh no grandmother I was just introducing myself "I'm guessing she's his grandmother
"You are in bluff , we found you on the streets badly injured and we later found out you are pregnant "
"What happened exactly" the white guy speaks out first
"I got mugged and they took my phone, my bank card I have nothing now "
"Why were you alone in the first place ?"
I look down as I shamefully reminsice
"I was knocking door to door looking for a job "
"Did you get any job?"
"Obviously not Andrew ,shut up now "
"I didn't get any job that's why I sat down in the pavement alone "
"Luckily for you we are hiring , we need a cleaner someone to keep the house tidy you can even use the cottage behind the house "
I open my eyes wide open after hearing her words , how can she be so kind !god works in mysterious ways honestly

"When can I start ?"
"As soon as you feel better just not today , tomorrow you will discuss the payment with Andrew "
"I will" even he looks shocked I'm guessing his gran did not inform him about the way forward
" I am so grateful—"
"Ohhh my darling call me Ouma , I'm like your grandmother "
"Thank you Ouma "
"Andrew let's leave Ziyanda to rest "
I didn't even know how she knew my name , but I was at peace
"Dear god is this my breakthrough "
I said a silent prayer begging for just peace in my life I really have suffered kancane phela but being chased out of my family home and actually being homeless with nothing to depend on

Likhona's POV

Deep breath , finally back in the motherland , the great Zulu kingdom it truly has been a good few years away from home
The private jet lands at the site that used be the Durban international Airport located in isphingo I smell the fresh air of home Durban
Just as the private jet lands , A Black Ferrari followed by a convoy of black SUV's enters the rooftop
I'm guessing that's the great Ibanzi Zulu

I scoff , wear my Gucci shades and step out of the jet while James my assistant unloads the stuff from the jet
My dad enters out of the car crosses his legs and looks at me as I step down
"Mageba"
"Baba"
"How was the UK my son "
"It was amazing dad hence why I did not even want to come back "
"You can go back later in life when you are married your bachelor days really are trouble "
"Usuqalile ke mnaje mageba !mina married ? I am not getting married anytime soon Mina unless ke you have arranged one for me "
"That's an idea too yazi ndodana "
"Don't even think about it dad"
"Come give your old man some love "
I hug my dad I love this man so much infact i admire him a lot ,one of the people in my life that I feel I could idolize he's a family person ,kind heart and very much intact with his lifestyle and his businesses

I get into the car with him and he gets into the passenger seat while I get into the drivers seat of the Ferrari the bodyguards load the the suitcases into the SUV' I also brought some presents for my sisters and my friends all the way from UK

"How's mommy dad yohh I kissed her so much "
"She's okay just stressing here and there you know how she gets sometimes "
"I missed being home a lot "
"But mele uze ufonelwe ukuthi ubuye kini?"
"You rushed me I missed home yes but I wasn't going to stay for long  "
"Did you at least get a white girlfriend le ?"
"You mean hookups yes!I have hookups , bootycalls here and there "
"Nazoke that's my boy ufuze Mina ke wena"
"Hey no cheating on my mom njalo "
"You worry too much "

Along the way we jam on songs by Mandoza and Cassper Nyovest just like the good old days , we pass debonairs pizza and buy pizza for people in the house
We arrive at the house , I start hooting just to indicate that I am finally home mom rushes out the house wearing her Gucci slides and a black dress ohhh how I love this soul she starts ululating
"Ohhh my son "she starts hugging me tightly and kissed my cheek continuously
"I missed you so much , you look so thin ngeke "I know she's only lying
"Mom don't be like that I gained so much weight "
"No you missing your mothers touch ohhh come here my baby"
"Mom leave some space for us too you know "that's Londiwe my younger sister , mom moves and gives her space to hug me while she goes to my dad and kisses him on the cheek and the mouth

"Angfuni wena uzofunwa izintombi zakho lezi eziningi owazishiya la "
"Damn they still miss my charm"
"Sadly yes angazi nokuthi babonani"
"I don't blame you , you are my little sister now please let go of me "
She lets me go right after punching my stomach
"Where's Senzo?"
"He's in Cape Town he got accepted into UCT "
"Damn how come I don't know that "
"Cause you live in England "
"Relax mom it's only just been 3 years "
"Exactly , come let's go inside I cooked all your favourites"
"And we brought pizza"
"Ohhhh no!!!!"that's mom knowing very well that this is hello to yet another spoiled dinner cause who will say no to pizza
"Can't resist"
