Exactly 10 days go by and we've been in hospital.I haven't been to school and I actually miss it for a change. All my mind is wrapped around is Angii. What did she eat? Is she still alive? I don't even know how to tell Libra what happened. I switch on my still in tact phone and switch on the wifi so I can use up the hospitals wifi. Luckily, it doesn't need a password.As I boringly scroll on my phone, having lost hope that my mother is still alive, she walks in. Shes limping, but with no physical harm done to her but, she's limping. "My kids." In her tired," I've-given-up" tone she utters. "Look neh guys, your dad has been arrested and so you wont see him for the next....I don't know. Only God knows." She seems happy that his finally in jail.

My mother was badly abused by dad and so it really affected her in a bad way and it rubbed off on the rest of the family. But this was a long time ago. This happened when Siphelele was born, so I wasn't alive to witness it all and I would've killed myself if did . At least dad was able change. But only for a while. So its now obvious where I get my anger issues from.

A white old woman walked in the ward we were all in. She was tall, had pretty long hair and looked racist . I laughed to myself for a bit. "Hi guys." With the fakest smile she said. Her Afrikaner accent continues to chitter-chat ;" Uhm, the two of you seem to have been doing great and I'm so proud of that. Within two days from now, I'm going to discharge you, okay?" She smiles. "Thank you so, so, so much Doc. We really appreciate how well you've been taking care of these kids of mine. Thank you so much" says my mother, with a sigh of relief. The nurse walks out and guess who walks in as I roll my eyes. Chill, its not Avani. Uwoh. Its Libra , holding Angii.

He walks to my mother and hugs her for the longest time as Angii runs in my direction. I'm happy they're here but I'm angry he didn't tell me that she's at his house. " Heeeh Siphelele" in trying to get me and Libra some privacy, she calls him to get off his hospital bed so he can walk her to the reception. He greets Libra on his way out. " Baby." And his lips meet mine. It lasts 3 minutes until, the chockablock, Angii screams when she sees her favorite show, sesame street. "Haibo child. Calm down." Him and I carry on until I receive a call from an unknown number. I roll my eyes.

" Hello?" I put it on loud speaker so that Libra can hear too. " This is Avani. Uhm, I know I be the last person you wanna be talking to, but I just wanna say I'm sorry for everything that's going on. I've already sent you all the homework and notes into your gmail." I drop the phone in anger and walk towards the window and beat it in frustration." Baby, chill I'm here for you don't worry ." He holds my waist and Angii runs out towards Siphelele and he watches us. "yeeeyi! Hai you guys love each other yooh. Hai wow." He says this 20 minutes after watching him and I cuddle and kiss. Mxm. Another chockablock.

"Look guys, I'm happy for you because, there are very few guys out there who still love their baby mamma's like you do. Keep it up." Then my mind flashes back to how Angii is not Libras child. Really now conscious? I think to myself.
