One last chance

Chapter 29

[Mbalenhle]
The awkward silence around the dinner table was too much, no words left anyone in the table it was too much that one could slice the awkwardness with a giant scissors.

"What are you doing here Sindiswa "mama finally asked cutting the silence into half we all were curious after the question we all focused on Sindy who was feeding the child on her thighs.

"To fix things Ma unless you don't want me here anymore" she said looking at Mama who did the same.

"For how long this time huh, you'll do this up and down thing till when" Ma asked before clicking her toungue and walked to her room i know how easily annoyed ma got and this was no different she was right though till how long this time till she leaves again, Sfundo excused himself to the his backroom.

"Be honest with me Sindy whats going on, look at you ,your face is full of bruises "i said telling what i was seeing, even after the amount of make up she putted on it wasn't enough ,the scratch on her cheek was new and make up couldn't hide it properly.

"Can we not do this Mbalenhle not today please am tired I'll be in my room" she said i chuckle lowely.

"You don't have a room in this house wena Sindiswa, currently your room is occupied so you'll figure out yourself where to sleep"Ma said sticking out her head from her room before going back.

At this moment i am trying to get my life back in order ,am trying to move on from everything that had happened in my life but at least i needed closure, i needed understanding of some certain things that occured in my life ,i looked at the peace of paper on hand over and over again , my heart leaped on my throat it was at this moment that i realise how desperate of this i needed, my feet walked ahead to the huge door, i knocked on the door before she opened rubbing her eyes,even when she was waking up she still looked beautiful her skin looked flawless too.

"Hi" the greeting seemed to have stucked on my throat but i manage to utter,her eyes widen in shock seeing me. "Can i come in" i asked she moved out of the door letting me in, i looked around the house it had a beautiful and colourful decor, the wallpaper on the wall suited it perfectly,i turned looking at her dead in the eye she folded her arms in her chest.

"What do you want Enhle"she asked i kept quite letting the venom in her words sink in , it was clear as day light that she hated me.

"Why do you hate me so much sasa, what is it exactly did i do to you for you to hate me this much, i know you set me up"i was testing the waters.

"So" she shrug not even regreting it, she comfirmed my suspicions "i don't have time for all this please leave my house" she said.

"I just want to know,i want to know why you hate me so i can move on "i begged desperately, we stood facing each other near the door.

" i don't hate you, i didn't hate you Enhle, just like you i needed money and i couldn't allow you to take a spoon on my mouth, I've seen how Mo looked at you " she said,i scoffed.

"So you decided to ruin my whole life for what, a guy Sasa ,a guy i didn't even see more than anything, 9 whole damn years Sasa all because of your insecurities" i said angrily.

"No you added the 4 years yourself , you were suppose to spend 5 years" i chuckled bitterly at that as tears burn my eyelids.

"I added them myself,you say i added them myself , do you have any idea how jail is, I've had to fight my way to survival sasa, i killed to survive ,you think i enjoy it,did you thing i enjoy taking a life with my own hands , my life changed ,i did things just to survive Sasa , do you know how hard it is to just force yourself being in a relationship with a women just so you can survive, do you know how hard it is sleeping with one eye open because you don't know when the next attack will be" i blinked once and the tears rolled down ,i had promised myself she wont see my vulnerability but here i was "you ruined my whole entire life just because of your insecurities, had you been open to me from the start you would know i wouldn't betray you, you would know if you took time to know me " i wiped the tears walking to the door i turned back to look at her.

"I hope you happy,i hope you happy for ruining my life , because I'll make sure the same fate i suffered you feel it,I'll make sure you rot in jail, just because you were able to get bail unlike your boyfriend doesn't mean a cell isn't prepared for you"

"You playing with fire Enhle and you'll definitely burn you forget that people working with Mo are more of a family than friends they will do anything for him, he is coming for you just watch your shoulder"

"You right about that but you and I know that's not true, Mo can't afford the sportlight onto him if anything happens to the witness all eyes will turn onto him"
