KEAMOGETSWE☆》

Siyabonga held me close, his warmth and comfort enveloping me like a blanket. We sat there in silence for a moment, the only sound heard is our gentle breathing. Finally siya spoke up, his voice low and soothing.

Siya: "I have to admit, I'm a little surprised. I didn't know you were thinking about getting pregnant." I pulled back, looking up at him with tear-stained eyes.

Me: "I wasn't, not really. It was just a scare, but it made me realize how unprepared I am for something like that, but katleho thought I was and asked me to take a test" siya nodded understandingly.

Siya: "we'll figure out what we want and when we're ready for it" I smiled weakly, feeling a sense of gratitude towards him.

Me: "thanks, just talking to you made me feel better" he smiled back

Siya: "that's what I'm here for, my love"

We sat there for a moment longer, enjoying each other's company. Then, he spoke up again.

Siya: "By the way, my brother wants to propose to Mbali so he needed my help with something"

Me: "That's great" he nodded, a wide smile spreading across his face

Siya: "I'm really happy for him. And it got me thinking"

Me: "what is it?" I asked, my curiosity getting the better of me. Siya took a deep breath, his eyes locked on mine.

Siya: "I was thinking, maybe we could start making plans for our own future together"

Me: "what kind of plans?"

Siya: "well, I was thinking maybe we could start looking for a house..." he doesn't finish his sentence because I spoke up

Me: "but...you already have a house"

Siya: "...Together"

Me: "you mean..."

Siya: "our house" I felt a rush of excitement at the prospect of building a life with siya.

Me: "That sounds amazing" He pulled me into a hug

Siya: "I'm so glad you're excited. I was thinking we could start looking during the weekend" I nodded

As we hugged, I felt a sense of peace was over me. I knew that I was exactly where I was meant to be- in his arms.

But just as things were starting to feel perfect, I remembered the test, and the fears, that still lingered in my mind. I pulled back, looking up at siya.

Me: "can I ask you something?"

Siya: "of course, what is it?" I took a deep breath, trying to gather my thoughts.

Me: "if I had been pregnant. Would you have been happy?" He took my hands in his.

Sita: "Baby, I would have been happy if it was what you wanted" his eyes locked onto mine "But i know that you're not ready and I respect that.

Me: "thank you for understanding" I said, my voice with emotion. I felt a wave of relief was over me, knowing that he would have supported me no matter what.

Siya: "I'll always understand you baby" we hugged, just then siya's phone rang. He pulled back, apologetic.

Siya: "I think it's my brother again"

Me: "it's okay, Go ahead and answer it"

He got up, answering the phone as he walked out of the room. I lay back on the bed l, feeling grateful for the love and support that siya had shown me.

As I waited for him to return, I couldn't help but wonder what the future held for us. Would we get married and have kids? Would we build a life together, filled with love and laughter? I smiled to myself, knowing that whatever the future held, I was ready to face it with siya by my side. Just then my phone rings.

Me: "hello"

Katleho: "hi kea"

Me: "hi, I know what you want to know"

Katleho: "are you...?"

Me: "no"

Katleho: "I'm sorry kea, I thought that maybe you're..."

Me: "it's okay, I believe you have something to tell me Katleho"

Katleho: "well...I'm pregnant" she has a sad face

Me: "congratulations, aren't you happy?"

Katleho: "I am, it's just that...

Me: "okay stop it Katleho, i said it's okay" she nods, we kept talking and talking, until it was time to sleep

Me: "okay, goodnight" I decline the call

Siya walks in and we sleep.
