Lukhanyo parks at the location Sandile had sent to him. Luzuko is still frowning sitting beside him in the car. Luks: "I expect you to at least make two targets today." Luz: "Lukhanyo I'm a grown adult. You can't force me to do anything." Luks: "Then get out of the car and leave." he stared at him. "Go on, I dare you." Luzuko huffed, looking out of the window. Lukhanyo got out of the car, starting in the boot to take out a bag before walking to Sandile who was sitting on his eating a bag of chips. Luks: "Do you ever stop eating?" He places the bag at on the ground. Sands: "No and if you comment about my weight, Spho will be very upset with you." Luks: "I'm worried that I don't see the weight. It's like you have a bin you take out of your body every night." Sandile laughed. Sands: "So what's with your clone? Why does he need to learn shooting? Oooh, are we going on a family mission? I call shotgun. That is both the type of gun I want and my position in the car." Luks: "You're not getting either. There is no mission. That one is a hazard to himself because he can't sit still. He's walking around with my face and is bound to piss someone off who will shoot him. He needs to defend himself." Sands: "It would be easier to get him a bodyguard. Fezile has better wrist strength than he does. Fezile is a gay feminine man." Lukhanyo hid a chuckle. Luks: "You love your boyfriend huh?" Sands: "Baby mama. He's dating your dumb business partner with clown shoes." Luks: "So why do you dislike Lubby? He also hates Gio. You're the exact same font." Sands: "Not quite. I'm a classic Times New Roman. He gives off Bookman Old Style vibes." Luks: "I'm surprised you know about fonts." Sands: "I have a degree Lukhanyo." Luks: "But do you use it? Hey, do you have graduation pictures? You probably look like a nerd." Sands: "Good luck finding those." he chuckled. Luzuko got out of the car. Luz: "Okay??" Luks: "Done sulking?" Luzuko folded his arms. Luks: "Sands, get him in top shape and don't stop until he looks like he knows what he's doing. Bag has all you need. Like I said; minimal injuries." Sands: "By mistake or lessons learnt." Luks: "Dealer's choice." he walked to his car. Luz: "What does that mean? What minimal injuries?" Sands: "I can shoot you at least once." he smiled. Luz: "WHAT!!! Lukhanyo what the hell bra!!!" the car sped off. Sandile picked up the bag and opened it. Sands: "I've been told I'm an effective teacher. All my students are superstars. I trained a team for one of the most dangerous beings known to man. He's been happy as a bird since. Well, I hope." he took out the first handgun. Sands: "Do you have a preference? I personally like starting with the big ones, then work my way down." Luz: "I- I don't have a preference." Sands: "Well, let me start you light. I don't trust you with the big one yet. Tell me, where have you been in the past few months. I hear you're quite the traveler in your trio." he loaded the guns with bullets. Luz: "I live in New York." Sands: "Work there?" Luz: "I own businesses here in SA." Sands: "And they do so well, you get to live in New York?" Luz: "Yes." he sighed. Sands: "Not fun living there is it? You live like a normal working man. Yet, you don't want to be in South Africa where you have a wealthy family." Luz: "South Africa is not big enough for three Lukhanyo's." Masilakhe's car drove in and parked. Sands: "Agreed. Two is already too much but they're like one person really." Luz: "You don't know what it's like, okay? You don't know what it's like to be the outcast in your own family. Hell, your own body!" Sands: "Well... I might be the only one who knows what that's like. Being the source of a powerful demon and having a former demon king brother. Hi brother. Ugh, that sounded disgusting in my mouth. Bhuti." Lakhe walked to them. Luz: "What the fuck are you talking about?" Lakhe: "What are you doing?" Sands: "Ta Luks asked me to teach him some life skills." Lakhe: "You're holding a gun. Lukhanyo, why would yo-" he stares at Luzuko, unsure. Sands: "You can tell huh? Isn't that cool? Also perhaps this one was an extra. Is not make sure." Luz: "I'm right here." Sands: "Did you think I was scared of you?" he handed him the gun. Sands: "Aim." Lakhe: "Give him a fucking target." Sands: "He gets to choose." he smiled. Lakhe sighed in frustration walking to the closer surface to put up the tins. Lakhe: "Does Sphosenkosi know her boyfriend wants his triplet to learn how to shoot a gun?" Luz: "Who is that? Lukhanyo is dating?" Sands: "Don't you guys have phone calls or something?" Luz: "I haven't spoken to Lukhanyo in a year." Sands: "OH." Luz: "He just keeps tabs on me." Sands: "That irritates you? At least you get tabs." Lakhe: "Shoot your gun Luzuko." Luz: "I don't know how to." Sands: "Oh, I'm regretting doing this for free." Lakhe: "You're the one that advertises your skills business." he took the gun from Luzuko, aiming at the targets, shooting them one by one without a pause. He put down his arm opening the magazine to check the bullets and shoving it back in. Lakhe: "Pick up the targets and copy what I did." Luzuko walked to the wall. Lakhe: "What the fuck are you doing Sandile?" Sands: "So we could do it for K but when I get a contract, the judgement bible comes out?" Lakhe: "A contract? Really? That's where you're taking this?" Sands: "Is it not? What did K promise you?" Lakhe: "If Spho finds this shit out, you don't dare mention my name. I'm not getting in trouble for you." Sands: "You're already in trouble. You're here." Lakhe: "And I'm not participating." Luzuko walked back to them. Lakhe handed him the gun. Luz: "So you two are brothers?" Sands: "He's more like my dad but for legal purposes, yes, brothers." Luz: "Must be nice." Sands: "Fun too." Luz: "So what is it about that demon thing you said?" Lakhe: "Fucking hell Sandile!" Sands: "What? I was vulnerable." Lakhe: "Sandile has an overactive imagination. Often used to scare people." Luz: "Different I guess. My brothers just tell me they'll beat me up." he aimed for the targets. Lakhe looked at Sandile. Sands: "Family drama." he whispered. Luz: "Not really drama. Just a known fact. I ruined their happy bubble. Two was enough for them." Sands: "They didn't even grow up together. They'd known each other what? Two, three years before you appeared? Also how crazy is that? Living life until a big age not knowing there's a different you in another province? That is wild." Lakhe: "Sandile." Luz: "It's cool. I long got over it. Kind of embraced my black sheep persona." ...
