The Girl With Big Dreams( Unedited)

Chapter two

It was around 22:00 dad was reading his newspaper sitting on top of the bed while mom was snoring like a little baby....mkami wake up

Baba I'm tired i want to sleep can't we talk tomorrow...yawning

No it can't wait till tomorrow now please sit up so we can talk

Arggg man baba yoh i won't rest in this house yoh as she sits up facing him ..this better be worth it please

Laughing just relax wifey you really like to complain don't you anyway tell me doesn't it bother you that our daughters don't get along?

Sigh! Yazi baba the problem is ntando and thobile all they ever do is bully ntombi forgetting she's part of the family too she, didnt ask to be dark did she?

Yes she didn't my love but through that dark skin of hers beauty is written all over her she's so beautiful really but she won't see that if she allows her sisters to bully her. Mamakhe ntombi is not a young girl anymore she's 20 years old really if she continues entertaining her sisters she will die of depression if she herself can't see her own beauty then that's her.

But Lucky don't say that cause i don't want to loose my daughter in all this....sniffs

Loose her how baby?

Well I'm not supposed to tell you this but she wants to go to jhb she says she doesn't wanna live here anymore...

What?

Yes she asked me not to tell you so please don't ask her unless she tells you

But why huh that means she won't tell me if she asked you to keep it a secret.

Love please calm down..rubbing his thigh you know she will tell you just give her time but i told her i give her my blessings already she feels leftout in this family let's just set her free.

But ..but she's still young mamakhe....putting the paper down.

You said it yourself she's 20 years old just let her be your main focus is thobile and ntando now tell me when is the Sibiya family going to come here?

Well baby tomorrow he wanna see thobile and ntando then he'll pick from there on who to marry.

Oh okay baba now can i go sleep we have a busy day tomorrow..

Spanking her butt....ngiphe ke sizolala.

Laughing...Baba kodwa I'm tired

Shhhhh! as he kissed her covering themselves with the blanket...the rest shall follow.

#Next Day#

Knocking in thobile's room shouting vuka wena as she pulled off the blanket on her vuka she repeated.

Mama with a sleepy voice while rubbing her eyes what time is it?
