I'm woken up by my alarm going off, I don't know where Tebogo is because he's not in bed with me. 'Shit' I still have to text Neo and make sure he agrees to meet me at Dikeledi's new place obviously he doesn't know it's hers. My place is not an option, Tebogo developed a habit of making constant visits even when I'm at his place just to make sure everything is okay. I don't want him to see me with Dikeledi and her ex and get suspicious.

"Good morning Beautiful, let's get ready for work or else we will be late" he looks like someone who was working out

"Can I take a day off?" that's my lazy ass after being shagged

He's laughing at me or should I say my odd sense of humor, although I wouldn't mind sleeping the whole day after this sex machine drove me the whole night.

"Come on let's take a shower together" Tebogo grins at me

I'm sure this is him saying let's have one more round before going to work, but I won't protest so I follow him to the shower.

For some reason Neo said he is busy today and will only be able to make it tomorrow morning, I tried convincing him to change his mind but he said he has plans already in the evening, i just hope Dikeledi understands. I just texted her a long message explaining this to her, plus I have to work.
I can't get over the fact that she threatened to tell Tebogo about me and K, I will not let her do that. I have done a lot to help her but she won't let me be in peace. Although I have to admit that having her twist all this made me realize that I am in love with Tebogo and I shouldn't have messed around with K. I made a mistake and I do want to fix it without having Tebogo find out and hate me over it.

"Nondi I want to talk to you" Samkelo
She sits on the chair beside me, it's lunch time already.

"Ain't you going out?" I ask

"That's not important but Rudzi asked me to get you to sit down with her and talk, she will be released tomorrow based on new evidence pointing elsewhere..."

"Wait, what are you talking about?" I ask cutting her out

She looks at me before answering.
"Well she didn't kill Thabelo and the murder weapon was found. Look as I was saying she wants to talk to you it's important, will you please meet up with her tomorrow if possible?"

I can't believe I was so distracted that I didn't even think about Rudzani and the case. If she is not the killer then who is the killer? Did Thabelo had another angry Ex or lover?

"Nondi are you listening?" Samkelo continues

"I have to go, can we continue this conversation later?" I'm already on my way outside

I have to call Molly asap, she picks up.
"She finally remembered that she had a phone" Molly

I'm sure that's her greeting me

"I just heard that Rudzi is going home tomorrow..."

"I wanted to tell you that myself but unfortunately you don't answer your phone so I couldn't, the found a knife used to kill the victim" Molly explains

Yes I hardly ever read my messages or answer phone calls when I'm with Tebogo and it's so ignorant of me but I didn't think such a bombshell will drop off. I don't want to go back to this case and have nightmares again, why won't Thabelo let me have peace?

Dikeledi also won't let me be free today, she is eager to speak to her ex, I know if I answer her phone it will be threats and if I don't she might end up dialing Tebogo's number so I answer.
