I was excited when I got Thabo’s text, really this guy  knows how to treat a woman  good. Everyday I get morning text, afternoon text and good night text. Honestly speaking I wouldn't trade our love for any other thing in this world.

The reason I was excited  after  reading  his text is that he told me that   my beauty cannot be compared to flowers actually to be precise  about this matter  no flower is beautiful as me, another reason  was because he told me that he's ready to introduce me to his family. I have been waiting for this moment for a very long time now.

I am actually glad he made up his mind and decided to be a man  for once in his life. Well it's not about  the wedding  but to us it's about what you said you would do. I love him and he loves me too but  I'm really concerned about his mother. That woman  claims to know the best for his son every time and that made him to date more than 15 girls ever since he was young. I'm not concerned about that only, I'm also really worried  as Ma Radebe is still very fond to Thabo's ex girlfriend Vinolia. Thabo told me  that  she was very fond for her  the first day  she saw her with him. He also told me not to mind her, I guess she will like me one of the good days.

I spent more than 20 minutes  on my phone after I waked up from my beauty sleep. Now  it's nearly half past eight and all  I need to do now is to wake up and shower you know duty calls. I immidiately went to the shower and did my everyday   routine  and after about thirty  minutes I was done.

I'm not dark in complexion I would say, I'm in between  coffee and brownish. I did my make up and  got dressed into a long  formal black dress with balanced golden shiny heels. I took my phone, laptop, car keys and my apartment's  keys. I got in my car and started it.

"Good morning" I say greeting the security guard of 'Good People' s Apartment ' thats where I stay. I passed by the gate  and I drove to work. Well my name is Lucenda Polowa I'm a pedi by the way. I'm the first daughter of Johanna and Thomas Polowa and hey these two parents of mine  were really concerned when I suddenly found myself  turning 30 years of age and yet not married.

I tried explaining to them about my lifestyle but they seemed not to understand  a single thing about it. I am an independent woman, meaning I pay my own bills I don't rely on a man for all my needs and wants. Anyway I never seemed to care about marriege until my second sister Linda got married last year  and she's 25. I was very ashamed because the whole family expected me to get married before all my younger sisters.

Never the less my excellent way of making decisions wisely about my life lead me to my soul mate. I thought he was going to  live me like the other girls  but no he also saw that I was different so he kept me until now.

Anyway I also want to walk down the isle but I guess that's a story for another day. Let me get to work, duty calls chiao.

It was already noon when I suddenly decided to sit near the pool and my mom comes walking at a very faster pace  with a tray of goodies. I looked at her  and she gave me  a very crazy stare.

"Thanks mom" - Thabo

"Thabo you can even thank me for millions of times but I have to enlighten you  that the Radebe 's are still waiting for their Their Perfect Makoti "

She said pulling off  the chair near the living room  facing the swimming pool.

"Mme (mother) please for now let's focus  on getting to know her as my girlfriend... " - Thabo

She interrupted him.

"wena (you) Thabo don't you see you are getting old, I also want grandchildren  and you need an heir to carry your legacy  one day" she said looking straight into my big eyes.

"Mme (mother) I understand but for now  she's still my girlfriend  and we are still  getting  to know each other better" - Thabo

"oky Thabo suit yourself one day you will find yourself being an old man  without a wife and kids" - Ma Radebe

She stood up and walked into the house. I was left speechless, I know my mom can get in another level but hayi ke as for today  ku rough, ku nzima emhlabeni (it is tough in the world).
