IT GETS BETTER WITH TIME. <NOT EDITED>

Chapter Six-found

"Sthandwa you've been quiet, are you okay?" Nathi stares at me worriedly.

I'm mad at him, he told his family about my personal life problems. Why didn't he conslut with me first.

"I want to change, can I get some privacy," I snort, giving him a dead glare.

It was right after dinner and his sister made small talks the entire time and well I played along but didn't bother glancing at Nathi during that time.

He doesn't move. Instead he keeps staring at me.
Let him suit himself, I'm changing right infront of him.

He still won't move.
His mouth and eyes widen. It's as if he doesn't believe I'm really changing in his presence.

Right now I don't give a damn, I just have to stay mad at him for as long as I'm capable.

"Goodnight," I utter bitterly while switching my side lamp off.

I can't stand his sight.

There is suffling around the room. He must be changing. Seconds later he switches my side lamp on.

His starting to get into my nerves.

"Nathi I want to sleep," I switch the lamp off. He switches it back on.

I sit up straight and look him straight in the eye.
That look, it's not a pleasing one. I give in when I can't take the staring concert any longer, I look down and fidget with my fingers.

Why am I acting afraid and guilty when he's definitely in the wrong?

"So you won't speak Busisiwe?"

I know he's pissed when he calls me by my full name.

Silence.

"Okay then. Talk to me when you're ready because I won't take your immature behaviour," he breathes harshly.

He heads out, bangs the door in the process and leaves me stunt.

Mnx. What a waste.

--------------------

Ever felt as if you're being watched and followed?
That's exactly how I feel right now.

Maybe I'm paranoid plus we've been here at RoseBank Mall for much too long now.

We've got two full trolleys with us. Shopping can be exhausting
and Khanyi still wants to shop more, Lele has been complaining too.

Nathi left before I woke up. Come to think of it, I think I overreacted. The man tried to reach out and I shut him out completely.

Deep down I feel bad and I miss him.
But at least he called Khanyi just to check up on us.

"One more thing to do," Khanyi utters dramatically.
"What? We really exhausted now and my baby is hungry," I groan.

"A phone. We forgot to buy you a phone missy."
Oh that.

"Don't you think we've spent too much of Nathi's money?" I arch my brows.

I'm sure we've spent nearly eight thousands.

"He's an accountant for heavens sake. Who should spend his money? Not to mention he handles accounts of big companies. So no, we haven't spent much at all," she utters rather looking so annoyed.

I better stop complaining then. It's not my money anyway.

"Can I atleast go order food then you can get the phone?"

She frowns. But it's not negotiable, Lele is starving and so am I.

Either way she ends up going by herself and I order our meal at Rocco Mamas.
I've never had their food before. I've been locked up for 11 years.

"Back at last. Here you go, everything is set. You can call your man now," she utters excitedly.

I'm excited too. Our food arrives just in time.
I put my man's number on speed dail.

"Hello?" he answers on the forth ring.
"Love," I utter uncertainly

I wonder if he's still mad at me. But the hell, I'm still mad at him too.

"Busi. Are you okay?"

Why does he sound like he's worried?

"I'm okay. I called to tell you I have a phone now, save my digits."

"Okay,"
He sounds offish, I don't like it.
We remain silent, neither of us want to hang up.

"Busi?"

"Nathi,"

"I love you okay."
He doesn't let me respond. He hungs up on me.

Wow.

"I'm in a meeting, I'll call when I'm done. Hope you enjoying yourself"
A message come's through. I smile.

"I'm taking Lethu to the ladies. You'll be good alone right?"
I nod.

Though I'm really scared. Being left alone makes me terrified.

And the feeling I had earlier still didn't vinash.

I browse bordly through my phone and I notice the apps have been installed already. Great.
Oh she bought me an Iphone 6plus.

"Hi," I move my eyes back up and I glance at the guy who sits comfortably close to me.

Damn he is ugly and horrific.

One of his hands reaches at the side of his pants, pulls his gun out and points it at my back. He motions forward and he whispers,"You'll get up and follow me. I don't want no scene so you better behave yourself," he whispers.
I nod and oblige.

Did I not say I feel like I'm being followed or being watched?

My body quivers and my heart drums explosively. I'm terrified and I pray I don't throw up as I walk.

We head to the parking-lot.

And I have to hold back my tears because I know one slip up, I'm dead.

"BUSI."
I look back. Its Khanyi and Lele,running forward to my direction.

Just when I think of screaming I feel a sharp pain on the back of my head and I feel my body getting heavy. My version gets blurry.

Reason why Nathi wasn't suppose to help me, now everyone involved has to get hurt. And who's suppose to be blamed? Ofcourse it's me.

And now my uncle found me, exactly how I predicted he would.

My Nunu's.
For those who are curious, Sthandwa means (my love) and Baba means (father).
Hope y'all still enjoying.
And don't forget to tell me how you feel about the characters.
