Going back home with one baby wasn't what i had planned but here I am getting inside the place i gave Birth to two babies and only coming back with one.
I haven't been speaking to anyone ever since Nyangas disappearance, even Nkululeko gave up on asking if i have eaten, drank water or fed Langa, not that I am abandoning him but each time i pick him up to feed him, my baby girl comes to mind, she is only 2days old and she is already experiencing the bad of this world. This is why i wanted to abort them. None of this would be happening.
Aw Phindile Sthandwa sam, please eat something and hold uLanga like your very own son too.
You can tell Nkululeko is really worried because he even has the guts to walk in our yard.
I prayed everyday that Whoever took my baby returns her back the way they took her.
Saniboni! I'm constable Mzizi. I am sorry to come here at this time of the night but we might have found a lead to your baby but there is sad news, we will need you to come with us to see if the dead new born baby is yours.
I couldn't even answer him. I was so weakened by what i just heard. Giving birth to a baby to only losing her again. I don't believe that it's her. Nyanga is a strong girl, she survived a miscarriage. The police need to do everything in their power to find my baby and bring her back home safe .
Mama ma twins, do you know of anyone who would want to hurt you in anyway? Your feelings ? Perhaps by hurting ones you love the most.
All the drama I've been through seemed to disappear after I've been asked thats question alot came back to mind, Soso's kidnappers, Skhalo, everyone was in my mind. I'm not a person with enemies, well that's what i had convinced myself for all these months, my stay in Johannesburg has been a really hectic one, maybe if i was still in the rurals, i wouldn't have been raped and having to deal with two babies whom i don't even want to see their father who is my brother, things got complicated even more after Nyanga got kidnapped.
Mam, you have to cooperate and give us some information, so we can make the procedure of finding your baby very quickly.
Angazi constable, I don't know , really, maybe Skhalo and his dad? Skhalos friends? Soso's kidnappers!
What? Soso's kidnappers, how do you know about them
Oh..eerr..no.. I don't know them, i...
Phindile what are you saying??? (asks Nkululeko)
No, guys . I thought maybe since Soso is close to me. They'd want to hurt her by taking my baby.
Phindile! You're not making any sense right now
Sorry, i need to rest, please come back tomorrow .
Nimzwile bo baba, come back tomorrow, she is already under enough stress, she doesn't need more. Tomorrow it is, I'll walk you guys out.
I was about to expose the whole Soso and her kidnapping story to the police on how i had to go the extra mile to save my friend from dying and being abused daily.
PHINDILE!!!
Nkululeko never shouts at me and if he does i know he is furious.
Baby! Calm down, yini?
Soso's kidnappers? Continue
Ungang'hlanyisi mina Phindile, you talk now or i walk out of that door and never come back.
