Oyama: Her Story

CHAPTER 57

Its been a few days since the day, they arrived and I thought interesting things would happen, but all it was, was Mishqah complaining saying that, Qhawe’s father was a monster asking for Kea to do take her to the hospital to get an abortion. Even though Qhawe and everyone always points that, he would’ve asked this of anyone of them, but it wasn’t enough for her, she kept saying, ‘He’s controlling your lives, by giving yall ultimatums.’
Again, they pointed out, he has told all of them to leave in a fit of Anger, even Qhawe told her about the time he was kicked out, because they fought, but in the end they ended up together. She called him, ‘Manipulative,’ and then this was where I learned that this family really believes that kids belong to the father.
The same night she told her husband; Kea that they should sleep somewhere else, after his mom suggested that they don’t and just sleep here, but Mishqah was against it and tried to leave with Imran, but its hard to leave when there’s 14 tall black man standing in front of you. Telling you, you aren’t leaving with their child.
I was genuinely scared because, I thought they were gonna throw her out and keep Imran, but Kea her husband, stood up and said, ‘They’ll sleep at one of the little cottages near the creek’. Like the drama in this family.
AY. Just put your hands up and let it go.
I really think the reason she was so upset was the, ‘WOMP WOMP’ thing, I would be too, imagine trying to get someone to see the wrongs they have done and their reaction is, ‘WOMP WOMP.’
There’s no way. But after that all happened we are finally at the day of our wedding. YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are in Stellenbosch on their grandfathers’ vineyard where we will have our wedding. It’s the morning of the wedding and for some STUPID FUCKING REASON, Mogale is missing and Qhawe is missing, because his younger twin brother is missing.
FUCKING TWINS AND THEIR BOND.
I swear I am never having twins if they turn out like this.
But I’m gonna chose not to stress about it, I mean I have our whole marriage to constantly remind him of this.
I am gonna milk this until the cow dies. I mean, I’m just happy we are still 3 hours from the wedding, so there’s still a lot of time.
Phiwe walks in her hair done and make up sitting pretty on her, she’s so beautiful, “Anything?” she asks.
I shake my head, “Where could they have gone?” I ask.
“His parents have no idea, but they have people looking for them as we speak,”
My phone starts vibrating, Its him, “Standwa sam before you say anything, please know it wasn’t my fault” he burst quickly in one sentence without pausing.
“OK, whose fault is it?” I ask.
“Mogale’s, he forgot the rings in Qumbu so we had to fly to get them, as we speak here he is so he can explain himself” again speaking quickly in one sentence.
“Mogale” I say coolly.
“Sa…saw…sawubona makoti” he says stuttering.
“Mogale how did you forget the rings?” I ask.
He nervously chuckles, “Funny story actually, you’d be surprised how small those boxes are, so small, someone can mistake them for car keys, in a pocket” he answers.

I stared at the phone in disbelief, "Mogale, you left the wedding rings in Qumbu because you thought they were car keys?" I asked, my voice dangerously calm.
There was a pause, and then I heard Qhawe mutter in the background, "You couldn’t just keep quiet, could you?" Mogale cleared his throat nervously.
"Makoti, it’s not like I did it on purpose. I mean, technically, this is just another funny story we can tell your grandkids one day!"
"Grandkids?!" I shouted, startling Phiwe, who nearly dropped her compact mirror, "Mogale, if you and your twin don’t get back here with those rings in the next hour, there won’t be a wedding, let alone grandkids!"
Qhawe’s voice came back on the line, sounding exasperated but trying to lighten the mood. "Standwa sam, I just wanna point again…”
“Shut up Qhawe!!!”
“OK” he says, “Also wanna say we are 30 minutes away, Love you”
“Love you too” I say. 
He hangs up, well I thought they ran away who would’ve thought it was just lost rings.
Mental Note: Don’t trust Mogale with anything important.
