"Where are you going?" Ntebatse asks me. I swear I want her to pin me against the wall right now.
"I'm gonna get ice cream with Ora," I say. She licked her lips and then bit them and suddenly, I forgot how to breathe.
"Maya, you good?" she asked. "Uhm... yeah," I respond and she smiles. "Well, have fun on your date," she says. Wait. Is it a date?
"Are you busy tomorrow?" I ask her. "I don't think so. Why?" she asks. "I wanna go buy a few things. Wanna come with me?" I ask and look down.
"Yeah. Sure," she says. I place a kiss on her lips but she pulls me in for a deeper kiss.
"Ntebatse," Mpumi called from behind me. "I have to go," I say and keep walking to the parking lot.
"Who was that?" I hear Mpumi ask Ntebatse. "It was that Kano mama. You know her," Ntebatse responds and I sigh.

"You're never late," Ora says to me when I get into his car. "I know. I'm sorry," I say.
"So where do you wanna go?" he asked. "I want ice cream, Ora," I say.
"Should we go where we went for our first date?" he asks. First da- oh yes. "Yes please," I say.
"Wait. I wanna drive," I tell him. He gets out of the car and my lazy ass just jumps to the drivers seat.
I swear the way Ora puts this seat is gonna break his back. "Still remember where it is?" he asks and I nod. I honestly don't forget routes to places.
He played a sexual playlist that I once made for him and memories of how we used to fuck to these songs filled my mind.
"Change of plans," I say. "Where to?" he asks. "We're going to a hotel," I say and he smiles.

We get to the hotel that I've been to over a million times with different people. The receptionist locks eyes with me and I quickly look away.
"One night?" she asks. "One night," Ora responds. She gives us a smokers room and the card to open.
"I have a few sweatpants and hoodies in the car," he says. "Let's go get them," he adds. "Why do you even ha- no. I don't wanna know," I say and he laughs.
"So you don't want ice cream anymore?" he asks me when we get to his car. "I do, but I also wanna fuck you so badly right now, daddy," I say and his eyes widen.
"Shit. That daddy got me hard," he said and I laughed. "Fuck first, ice cream after?" I ask him and he nods.
"I think that I should just go to res and get a few clothes. It's just ten minutes away," I say and he nods.
"What should I bring for you?" I ask him. "My weed and toiletries," he says and I nod before driving away.

I knock once on the door and no response. This means that Jabu isn't here.
I insert the key into the key hole and unlock the door. Jabu was laying on the bed fast asleep.
I get Ora's toiletries and his we- where the fuck is the weed? I have to wake Jabu up. I have no choice.
"Jabu. Jabuuu, JABU!" I call out and his eyes shoot open. "I'm sorry I uhm... do you know where Ora puts his weed?" I ask him.
"In the blue bag in the corner," he tells me and goes back to sleep. "Thank you," I say when I find it and leave.
Now I have to get my shit. In my dorm was Fortune, Mpumi, Lesedi and Brook. "Hey," I say to them and gather my stuff.
"Where are you going?" Mpumi asks me. I lock eyes with her and she smiles making me smile.
"I uhm.. nowhere," I say. "Come join us then," Brooklyn says. "I have to go," I say after packing a few clothes into my backpack. I grab my toiletry bag and wave bye to them.
"I'll see you in a day or two," I say and rush out. I get to Ora's car and pack our things in the boot.
"Maya, what are you doing with Ora's car?" Puse asks me. He was with Lethu.
"I really have to go. Ora's waiting for me," I say and get into the car. "Call him and ask him wassup," I say and drive off.
