After an eventful day at church, I now lay in my bed wide awake as sleep failed to consume me.

Mr Lunga Khoza. The only thing running through my mind.

So let me indulge you on what took place today.

As he stood on in the middle of the stage he commanded everyone's attention, hell even the rowdy little kids gave him thier undivided attention.

His voice was like warm chocolate as it melted in your mouth slowly. So smooth. I was staring so hard at the man that I thought I would burn a hole into his head from my seat in the back row.

As if sensing my gaze on him, his eyes roamed the full church before lingering on mine. And trust me I don't know whether it was just my imagination playing tricks on me, but I swear he kept on looking at me for a little too long with a slight smile on his lips.

Maybe I needed to get my eyes tested because, one I'm sitting to far in the back to notice so much.

As he turned his penetrating gaze away I sunk into the long bench releasing a breathe of air. The lady next to me asked me if I was alright and I nodded my head like a controlled robot.

"He sure is a handsome man and unemali (he has money)", she said fanning herself with her Bible.

Well he sure was handsome, I'll admit. But I never really had a thing for older men but I remember my thoughts from last night. It won't hurt to try, right?.

But scratch that because the only word that really caught my attention was imali(money).

Now my interest was truely piqued up a notch as I sat straighter on the bench. I needed to know more about this man and this women seems to know all the juice.

Preach on lady.

"Who is he?",I ask pretending to sound bored but I'm sure my body and facial expressions gave me away, but who cares, I was on a mission and it seemed like God was finally answering my prayers.

My inner self scoffed.

Really now?, God has nothing to do with the forbidden thoughts you are thinking of right now Mahle.

Mr Khoza was still talking but I was more interested in finding out about him from this woman.

She looked at me as if I had grown to heads as she answered my question.

"Sweetie he is the CEO of LK Media Concepts, one of the richest black business men in South Africa", she said as if I was really stupid not to know this.

Forgive me but I wasn't much of a social media butterfly.

I couldn't believe my ears as I spoke my next words.

"What??!!!", I hadn't anticipated to be so loud in my response in the form of the shout I gave, bringing everyone's attention to me even Mr Khoza's.

Completely embarrassed wishing that the ground could open up and swallow me I muttered a weak apology, but not before receiving unapproving and judgemental glares from everyone, oh please like I really care. After they were done boring holes into my face they set thier eyes back on Mr Khoza.

Ah Mr Khoza, the CEO of one of the biggest media firms in SA. I've heard about the company before but I never bothered with knowing about the brains and beauty behind it.
