Thulane
I was sitting in my room as they was a knock and Dad walked in. I looked at him as he touched my trophies from school as if his seeing it for the first time. He looked at my drawings also and I was quiet looking at him than he had his hands in his pockets and turned to find me staring at him.
Dad: I have a feeling that your mom and I went wrong somewhere. I just kept quiet.
" It just that you two matter to much and they are people after me and unfortunately that makes them after you two, your mom and I were never going to tell you this but they was 3 of you when she was pregnant " i looked up at him shocked.
Me: What happened to my other sibling.
Dad: He didnt make it. Your mom was kidnapped and somehow lost him.
Me: Am sorry
Dad: This is why we drill you. One day we going to die and when we do I want you to be safe. I want you to atleast have a fair chance of survival if ever put on a position that requires you to survive.
Me: I get you dad, we understand just that sometimes we want to be normal. You'll dont let us do anything at all. We have no friends, we go to no parties and we even don't do movie nights or date nights. Boys my age are having sex and am stuck here doing karate. That got my dad laughing.
Dad: so you want to have sex?
Me: That besides the point i want to be normal plus i would if I had a girlfriend but I can't cause am always with Thuli and am a nerd.
Dad: that not what Thuli says. She says you one of the hottest guys at school and girls always bug her for your numbers.
Me: That not true, you know how she always blows things up. I love my dad. Sometimes we don't see eye to eye but he always come through for us and always talk things with me and help me process things. I love how powerful he is yet down to earth when he is with us. Yes he has his strict moments but other than that he is cool.
Dad: I love You son, more than words could explain. Always know that. But I want you to talk to me if you feel like we stepping on the line tell us and we will back off
Me: Thanks dad. I love you too. The next few weeks were amazing. Mom and dad let lose a little although I swear I saw a couple of guards here and there when I chill with my classmates. I was at the parking lot waiting for Thuliswa to come through since I was the one fetching her from the library with dad car. Just than someone came on my driver side and dropped an envelope that landed on my lap. I looked around to see who and what but the parking lot was empty. Thuliswa walked out and came to the car and sat down.
Thuli: Can we pass Mc D please, i need a Mc Flurry
Me: I will if you buy me one
Thuli: sure. We drove there and she saw the envelope and took it
Thuli: What this? She was opening it
Me: can't I have some privacy Thuli? She giggled and continued to open it and than she was silent. I looked at her and she looked like she has seen a ghost. I drove out of the fast lane to the other lanes so I can stop.
Thuli: please don't stop and drive straight home. I did as she asked and we got home as she jumped out of the car while moving and went inside. I parked and walked in to find dad looking at me and mom checking my vitals and looking me over as if I was in an accident.
Me: can anyone share what happening.
Dad: who gave you this? I walked to him and took the same envelope and saw pictures of us since we were young.Then there was a note with newspaper cutting reading:
" 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰 𝐬𝐨 𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐭"𝐄𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐙𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐨
𝐏.𝐬: 𝐓𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐚 𝐠𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭, 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐠𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭???
Mom was panicking and dad was cool as a cucumber
Me: Someone threw it through my window while I was waiting for Thuli
Dad: Try and think son. When you got there and parked the number of cars they was in the parking, movements, people anything. I closed my eyes thinking and trying to picture the whole place and racking my brains on anything that might have stood out.
Me: Nothing dad, I wasn't really paying attention.
Mom: all this training and you weren't paying attention? Thulane didn't we teach you to always be alert? What wrong with you??? She left us there. Dad came and hugged us as my sister was shaking.
Dad: Don't mind mom, she is just worried about you two that all.
Thuli: I saw a car that looks just like yours when I left but I looked at the number plate before I walked towards it other wise i would have gone to it. That made dad jumpAkani
That exactly what they wanted her to do
Me: okay baby girl give me the plates and ill check it out. She did and I texted sya to check it out for me. I kissed them and went on to go check on my wife and I food her in bed crying her eyeball out. I got in bed with her
Salinda: This is torture, its like we always waiting for him to attack and when we lower our guard just for a second he attacks.
Me: we going to be fine. We have pulled through for 16 years now we will be fine. Nothing going to happen to you and the kids.
Salinda: i just wish this could be over now. I can't anymore
Me: It will babe,it will. I kissed her to help her forget and focus on other things and it worked since her breathing changed and she tugged on my pants. I smiled just thinking what about to happen.Eric
I stood there as I waited for my plan to be executed. Iv waited 16 years for this and today Iv started implementing it. Today I shall make Akani khuzwayo pay and he will wish that he was never born. To bad his wife and kids will b part of this but on every war they are causalities and I guess they are it. I sat there waiting for feedback in knowing if they got my little note and waiting for him to do exactly what I predicted. This weekend we will never be the same. I would get my revenge and he will lose everything. I smiled just thinking about it.
