°19

Hlobisile was sitting under the Mango tree as she was sipping her juice from a glass. The air is so refreshing as she looks at everyone who walks up and down the streets of her house. Her phone beeped indicating that there's a message that had just got in. She took it setting her eyes on the screen but it was from an unknown number:Meet me here we need to talk. It was just that as she was asking herself and this message. She looks up to her mother who was approaching Her

MaShenge: Hlobisile you look like you're about to bust or something. What's wrong?
Hlobisile: It's just that I've just received a message from an unknown number so it's very disturbing
MaShenge:Ow,what does it say?
Hlobisile: The person wants to meet up with me,all I know is that person could be a serial killer
MaShenge:I don't trust these things too,are you going?
Hlobisile:(shrugged her shoulders)I don't know,I think I will go.
MaShenge:Are you sure Hlobisile? Maybe I should go with you yaz I don't trust these unknown numbers aay aay!
Hlobisile:(sighed)You don't have to worry about me, we'll be meeting up in a public place so I don't think that person would hurt me
MaShenge: Ohk then,and... Your cousin is coming down here for a visit.
Hlobisile: Which one? Don't tell me it's Samke yuuuh that girl is too much
MaShenge:(chuckles) unfortunately It's her,and you should treat her good
Hlobisile: She should treat me good too,I don't know drama
MaShenge:Ohk Hlobi,but you two should solve whatever issue you have with each other since it seems like you never liked each other from birth
Hlobisile: Shukuthi I don't feel her,that girl is a brat Mom (rolls her eyes) she's a brat aaay and she'll be laughing at me about getting pregnant at this time
MaShenge: You should not be like that Hlobisile,be happy about your pregnancy for once!That is one of the things you should do for a healthy pregnancy
Hlobisile:Ohk then I hope I'll have a great pregnancy with Samke in this house mnx
MaShenge:(giggles)Evil spirit is playing with you,we should go to Church tomorrow... It's Sunday
Hlobisile:Mom that's too much,I want to eat and sleep tomorrow
MaShenge: That won't happen then my girl, anyway let me leave you
Hlobisile:I will come to the house in few, I'm still enjoying this refreshing air
MaShenge: It's Ohk,I will make a smoothie for you
Hlobisile: You're the best

MaShenge walked inside the house as Hlobisile dialed Zandile's number. It's been long since they have talked and she kinda miss her a bit.

Zandile:Hey Hey Hlobisile
Hlobisile:Hey, it's been long ey!I miss you so much
Zandile:(smiles)I bet you do,I miss you too and this place is boring when you're not here
Hlobisile: That's a lie and you know it, there's no need to sugarcoat anything you say since I get it
Zandile:(frowns)I.. Friend it's not like that

She knows that Hlobisile must be thinking about the negative things. They are making it not easy for her. That she left School since she decided to get pregnant even though she didn't.

Hlobisile:You can say it,I know I've failed a lot of people and I'm not proud of that
Zandile: Ohk the place is not really boring but I miss you so damn much, that's what I really meant
Hlobisile:(sighed) I'm sorry I.. I don't know why I was thinking of that it's j-

Hlobisile:Yeah I will try and be less angry. I don't know how but I'll try

Zandile:Yeah
Hlobisile:Aaybo ke bo lotioning the bread with margarine
