I was smiling on my way to my aunt’s place. I didn't even want to stay longer, but it was my duty to check up on her. I knew my family would not do so until later but I worried more about her.“What brings you here Mayamiko? I told you I was going to be fine?”“Look you are all alone.”I said, going inside the house and picking up things on my way. My aunt was not an untidy person, so it worried me.“Bankhazi, basibweni balingu? (Where is my uncle?)”“You know him and beer.”We both laughed. If it’s something that my aunt failed to separate from my uncle it was his beer. He would go to any beer hall and drink. Even some homemade beer legally or illegally brewed he knew the venues.“If you are to re-marry stay away from men who love beer.”I was thinking about my predicaments as I didn’t know Chisomo that well. What if he was a drunkard, as I only saw him sober at work? What if she loved beer and women?“So, you have a man now?”She was looking at me with a curious face I just laughed

When I woke up, it was as if I was in a dream and I didn’t want that dream to end. What if I woke up, then realised I was still living my miserable life? I was too tired to even open my eyes. When I smelt an unfamiliar scent, I immediately shoot my eyes open.The same time I opened them was the same time Chisomo came into the room dripping wet from a shower. I was drooling I knew I was drooling but my body didn’t feel happy for me as it was too tired. The empty box of condoms also supported that claim in full view. I think my parents were going to disown me when they saw the things I was done to the previous night. Or let me rephrase. The things I allowed this handsome man to teach me the previous night.Did we even sleep? I doubt I think I only napped. I remember we ate cold food then from there it was chatting and love making throughout the night. He smiled at me and that smile was so dangerous that it could turn a nun into a mother of the nation. What was I saying?“Good morning, d

This girl was irritating me. What did Alfredo want from me? She had even tagged her friends to attack me but before long there were people who were Chisomo’s friends who fought back.[Keep your nasty comments to yourself. Loose girls like you do not even deserve to be in his wall.]There were people who commented under that person’s comment. Most of them were dragging Afredo to the ground. I wondered why he was not saying anything as he ignored her like a plague.[Some people will never see a good thing even if it’s in front of their eyes. What is this fool saying about our boy who is in love? I know he would never have approached this lady if she wasn’t his type. You are not his type it shows as he will not go for someone like you, so sit your ugly butt down and let love birds enjoy their life.]The lady who commented was his friend and there were pictures she took with Chisomo and Jerry.There were so many comments crushing her comments from what I realised the friends who were

‘They are not looking, the bathroom in 5 minutes.’Those were the messages I lived for. Chisomo worked as hard as he played. Played I mean sex. He always had condoms starched in weird places. At first I was shy to carry them but then I got used to our Stolen Moment that I didn’t want to miss any opportunity.In days where he would be busy, messages will follow each other in intervals and I was loving being loved. I even lost words to describe what he was doing to me. One brick at a time he removed that wall that I had built. I was slowly forgetting my life with Joseph, but not Asante. She communicated from time to time and I deposited money on the card frequently, although she didn’t use it much. Their neighbour was helping us. They had moved to a high density suburb, but she was adjusting. Her neighbour made it easy for us to communicate and for the money to be safe. At her age she was doing well I think running away from home at that time helped her as she saw life in a different l

“My darling, what is going on? I heard you rushed to the hospital what is happening?“The news reporter had already reported.”I laughed as I knew Samantha would not keep it to herself. She was worried I would not blame her.“She was worried and so was I. Are you okay?“Yes, it was my aunt. She is okay though only exhausted, so the doctor is admitting her for a few days to monitor her. She collapsed and her husband was working outside of the city I guess she didn’t have anyone to help her.”“What about her kids? I think she had grown-up kids if I am not mistaken.”“Are you talking about those who can’t even boil eggs? They can even burn water on the stove.”The way he laughed at me. I was being serious. They were not considerate. They were not appreciative of how hard their parents worked to raise them and still care for them.“As long as you are good my darling, then I am happy as well. I will miss you this evening when knocking off.”“I will make it up to you tomorrow.”“Thank you,

“We did a great job ladies let us celebrate.” It was the day before the wedding and we were with the mothers but we had moved to my old room. It was fun as we were talking about girl stuff. “I knew we were going to pull it off with Maya here, controlling everything. You are supposed to be the manager as well or your boyfriend is teaching you the ropes already?” There we go, Samantha had to open her mouth. “I knew you were dating, and you didn’t say anything to me. I suspected, but I didn’t expect to be the last one to know.” My sister looked so hurt but she had to know why I was uncomfortable telling people about my relationship. I was glad Mphatso answered on my behalf. “Do not blame her, Nthanda, she is coming from a complicated marriage, and advertising her love life will be the last thing on her mind. Coming from a broken marriage at her age is not what she had imagined. She had dreamt of having a family for a while but it all went out the window. Do you think she doesn’t w

“Stop what you are doing Asante you will get hurt.” I was not shouting as I was agitated. The call was taking longer. I wanted to go back to work but Joseph was not keen. Things were not going well as his mother has also overstayed her welcome. She was not showing any signs of going at that moment. I was not even eager to know what she was discussing with the family as they were in the meeting.“Mayamiko, I am very careful so do not worry.”She called me by my name always when she came from her mother’s place. My friend Mphatso thought I was mad to have forgiven him and continued with the traditional wedding. It had been two years of marriage and still, I didn’t have kids from my womb but Asante was my daughter only when she was with us not when she came back from her mother. She was doing Standard 3 at the time and she understood right from wrong but she chose her more.Blood is always thicker than water so what can one do? She was born from an affair my husband had while we wer

I was shaking because I wanted this nightmare to end. I was not ready for more aggravation.“We cannot see clearly in the scan but there is something wrong inside her Cerebellum. Although we can’t pinpoint it now because of the scar and the swelling, it showed slightly when we took a scan.”“Swelling and scaring. What did you do to my child?”I had never seen Joseph so angry it scared me. I was forced to explain to everyone what happened.“For now we need to monitor her and see how this goes. We are not promising anything as the swelling is not showing any signs of subsiding now.”“Can we at least see her?”I looked at the doctor with pleading eyes and he assumed I was the mother.“Yes but only you and the father.”They all look at me as if they will consume me with the flames in their eyes. They all looked back at the doctor. Mr. Soko just brushed my shoulder apologetic as if he was the one who had wronged me.“Why would she come in when I almost lost my daughter because of
