It's still the same day of the statement we finally arrive at his apartment the time is 19:00
"I had fun today "
"I am glad you had fun "
"Now let's go unbox my new iPhone im so grateful what did I ever do in this life to deserve this "
"Do you have instagram ?"
"I used but I deactivated my account it was useless to me "
"Don't you want it back ?"
"And post what?"
"I don't know you will see "
"Maybe I just might "
I inbox my phone and add his contact and my mothers and Fathers number which I know off by heart
Likhona is helping me install the apps and I'm guessing he saw my contacts
"Why don't you call them ?"
"They chased me out"
"So? I'm sure they were still angry then but you can't exactly stay mad at your own blood forever now can you ?"
"Nothing pierces my heart as the image of my mother crying because of me my actions can you ever look at her the same ?"
"I'm sorry but let's give it time , they will forgive you eventually "
Ibanzi's POV
A month later
It's a busy day at the office a lot of paperwork the intercom in the office buzzes I tap it to check who is it ringing for
"Sir it's madam "
That's so unusual my wife rarely comes to check up on me at work
"You can let her up "
After what feels like 5 minutes she appears in front of me wearing a red dress with some stilettos
"Darling"
"Hey baba"
The amount of love I have for this woman is amazing and just so out of this world she comes to my side and kisses my cheek
"I miss my son "
"Ohh don't be such a cry baby you saw him a few days ago "
"Exactly someone has been keeping him busy these days "
"Relax that isn't even such a bad idea "
"Honey it is next thing he is thinking of getting married "
"Darling I have a lot of paperwork pleas you are the one that was on about having grandkids not so long ago Kanti what do we women want ?"
"I did say I want grandkids but I feel like it's too soon to be making babies I want to bond with my son "
"Your son is 24 come give daddy some sugar"
"Ooooh yes ,"
"I feel like that's what you came here for "
"Maybe "
She smiles and I close the doors automatically using the remote and we have a quickie
Ziyanda's POV
bed peace by jhene aiko starts playing in the room, it is my alarm to wake up in the morning I twist and turn on the bed the pregnancy is making me lazy day by day I'm already 5 months pregnant and my stomach is rather very big
Likho went back home for the the past two weeks his home is only in Umhlanga he claimed that his mother wanted to spend some time with him
I have been applying at Universities and I have gotten a Firm offer at the University of KwaZulu Natal that's the only place I can go to now due to my pregnancy I applied at the faculty of Health Sciences
The house is rather quiet I like it but I hate it at the same time cause likho is not here yazi I don't know how I feel about him well I know yep I know I just don't know what to do , it's best not acting on
I have gotten a job as a brand ambassador thought at 7 stars Salon and a few salons have asked for a one time merge with me
I take a quick shower and decide to wear a flappy loose pant with my white tank top and I tie my frontal in a low bun and Likhona's sleepers and I walk out to the garden I finally agreed to have instagram and I have a solid 5k followers it's not much but I have actually gained followers
I posted one picture of the gift of the iPhone I got from likhona it was captioned "new beginnings ❤️"
"I'm home "
The kitchen door creaks and his voice echoes in the house
I run to the kitchen and throw myself in his arms
"Damn I was missed "
"Likho"
I love the way he smells
"Well I don't know I guess it's just hormones "
"You think so ?"
"I know so "
Mind you I'm still in his arms damn he smells so nice , being in his arms feel like being home after so long kind you I don't have a home anymore
"What did you get for me ?"
"Nothing "
I make a shocked expression cause I know deep down that he actually did but something for me
"Wait let me talk to the champ first "
I rest my hands on my hips as he bends down to the length of my stomach
"Can I ?"
I nod my head so he can lift up my top just to have a view of my tummy , this gentleman
"Hey champ I'm back , now I need your permission to know whether I can give mommy her present or not "
"And when are you even going to get answer ?"
"I don't know 3 months later"
"That's a bit useless don't you think"
"Whatever " he gives me a small smirk realizing that it's about time he shows me what he got for me he kisses my tummy and stands up
"Let's go "
He grabs my hand , the feel of his hand against mine just send butterflies and electricity in my body I love it so much , at the back seat of the Range Rover he takes out one of the most biggest bouquets I have ever seen and a two Chanel paper bags
"Likho, it's so huge "
"Exactly "
"That's why you didn't bring it inside with you "
"Yes you might as well feel the heaviness "
I roll my eyes at this drama , he hands me the two Chanel paper bags while he takes the flowers from me and we walk inside the house
I take pictures of my gifts , ohhh man I love the aesthetics so much I post it on my instagram

@londie.m sbwl darling
I post it on my story , along with the Chanel handbags I barely mind my direct messages on instagram especially cause I use it for the ambassadorship thing
"Look who is enjoying instagram "
"Don't act like I didn't even know what instagram is "
"But you finally got it "
"Yes I'm guessing you expect a thank you ?"
"Yes why not ?"
"Why say?"
"Cause I convinced you to bring back your account "
"Whatever "
"Now get ready we going out "
"For what?"
"Lunch "
I smile at the idea of food I didn't even know that I was hungry I just get hungry instantly when food is mentioned hence why I'm getting so fat
"I have no outfit to change into I might as well just take a cardigan and we shall be on the way ?"
"You are not serious ?"
"What ? What the hell is wrong with my outfit"
I am in no mood to crack my skull looking for something to wear I slip my feet inside the green slippers and take the yellow cardigan and a green side bag
"You are the mother of color blocking "
"Ohhh shut up Likhona "
I really don't appreciate him throwing shade on my outfit though I am aware how bad it is but I like it like this I take some cute mirror selfies while he stands by the door and taps on his phone
"Can we go now ?"
"Just a minute "
Finally I'm done taking pictures it's hasn't even been three months since I moved in but I'm giving a lot of trouble alright but if not me then who
We are jamming to some Whitney Houston tracks in the car , well singing along while he's just watching me with a huge smile on his face
"You have a nice voice "
"I told you I was the future Beyoncé"
"Don't push it "
"Hey what do you mean ?"
"Musa ukushiselwa phela I was joking calm down "
"Can we go to Spur"
"Whatever you want "
We finally arrive at the mall , I leave my purse in the car and we walk inside the mall hand in hand ,Pavillion mall
The mall isn't packed but it's really crowded we start by earthchild as insisted we have made it our mission to keep buying baby clothes I still don't know the gender of the baby for the first time last month I went for a check up at the doctors and everything was okay but I couldn't get the gender of the baby
We enter spur and luckily there is no huge line that we have to wait for seats we quickly find a seat at the far end we only have the best view of people coming in the restaurant
A nice white lady comes to assist us I order food that meaning ribs , burgers , fried chips and desert too yesss I am going to eat it by myself
I am laying my head on his shoulder as he scrolls on his instagram and WhatsApp answering messages the only thing I'm doing is watching him
"Don't you want to be my PA "
I laugh at him as he says the dumbest ideas and how nice things would be if we were working together
A group of girls pass us , they look like they are still my age the one with black braids turns around and our eyes meet the shocked look on our faces wouldn't be missed
"Ziyanda"
I don't know whether to hug her or be angry at her or be embarrassed
"Asemahle"
"Where have you been ? Your mom and dad had been looking for you "
"Why?"
"What do you mean why?"
"They chased me out Asemahle what was I supposed to do , they abandoned me "
"I get that besides that I have been looking for you where have you been "
"It's a long story just know that I have been through a lot "
"How far along are you ?"
"6 months now "
We hug and talk for a while I'm standing ,Likhona is behind me playing videos on his phone that's his way of giving me space
"Anyways we will talk "
"I will keep in touch you really have a lot to tell me "
He says the last part looking at likhona who pays her no mind I'm glad she didn't ask about Likhona
