AVETHANDWA SISULU

The day couldn't be longer, but when it reached 5pm, I was the first one to walk out. This is no longer funny. Why am I always the first one on this floor to go home? I enjoy work, but when it comes to going home, you can't beat me. Somehow, I used to do the whole thing in varsity and also in high school. I had good grades, but I used to walk out of the school gate first. Even when the teachers asked us to remain behind for extra classes, I would always leave. The only goo

    38.AVETHANDWA SISULUI was not anticipating the day. When I woke up, I decided to come to the kitchen and bake. I wanted a distraction, and my grandma has since told me that baking makes you feel at rest. It takes the mind of the edge, so I baked blueberry muffins. I learnt the recipe through YouTube last year. Blueberry muffins are my favourites. I took a picture and posted it on my WhatsApp status.“This smells nice.” That was Bangizwe's deep morning voice. I left him in bed because I woke up early. He wrapped his arms around me with his face at the crook of my neck.“You wanna try them out?” I grabbed one muffin and turned around to feed him.“They are good. I didn't know you could bake, let alone cook.” It's either he cooks or Tyler does, or we buy takeaways, but I'm always eating.“I can do a lot of things.” I wrapped my arms around his neck and stood on my tippy toes. He's so tall. I'm tall, but he makes me feel so short.“Did you receive the DNA test results?” Yes, today is Fr

    37.AVETHANDWA SISULU“You look like a doll.” That was my cousin complementing me after she helped me get ready. Apparently she was fetched by Kabasele at her aunt's place.“Thank you for coming.” She's standing behind me while we both stared at the mirror.“Your boyfriend literally asked me nicely. He send that man with flowers. What a man. Anyway, is he going to propose?” Propose? It's just a dinner date.“Not everyone wants to get married Khanyi.” Her obsession with marriages is not cute.“Well i just want you to know that you have my blessings.” She kissed my cheek.“Thank you but I'm fine. The way you're so obsessed with a marriage, you'll divorce thrice before you're 30.” I stood up. I was wearing a crimson red one-shoulder dress with a crystal strap dramatic cascading ruffles on my left side with matching silver high heels. I bought the dress at the mall and it felt so good to swipe without checking the price tag and now it's worth it.“I revoke that curse. I'm gonna get marrie

    36.AVETHANDWA SISULUAfter leaving the hospital, Bangizwe drove to his aunt's place. The ride was just so silent, and I gave him his time to think while I was just there. I'm also wondering how Bangizwe is the father of Thando's child. He never mentioned them sleeping together. Could it be that Thando is lying? But why would she lie like that about her cousin? I've always known that girl is mentally disturbed. When I think of all this, I can't even hold myself. I want to take out my frustrations on her.Bangizwe didn't even get out of the car. He parked in the yard and just sat in the car with me. You could see that he was lost in thought.“Are you okay?” The silence was just too much for me. I don't even know what time it is or if I'm gonna make it to work on time. A lot of things have happened in one night.“I just don't understand. How?” I pulled him in for a hug. I wish I had answers that he needs. I wish I could take the pain away from him.“Thando is gonna answer for herself.”

I enjoy work, but when it comes to going home, you can't beat me. Somehow, I used to do the whole thing in varsity and also in high school. I had good grades, but I used to walk out of the school gate first. Even when the teachers asked us to remain behind for extra classes, I would always leave. The only good thing was that at night, I would wake up and catch up on everything. I used to be ahead of the curriculum. I remember in my first year at varsity, the principal at my old high school called me and asked me to help out his students during my recess. I declined. I finished high school for a reason, I would never go back there.“Good afternoon, Kabasele.” I greeted his driver when i got in the car. There was no Seth today, but there's still a guard inside the building. He only knocks out when I d

    34.AVETHANDWA SISULUYoh! I had a hell of a weekend. My head is even pounding, but I'm drowning myself in coffee. This is hangover and fatigue. A knock comes from my office door. I wonder who it could be. It's still in the morning, and I haven't really started on today's work anyway.“Come in!” The door opens and in walks Tinyeleti. She's in her white jumpsuit and pink blazer with matching heels.“Am I disturbing you?” She asks.“Not really. I'm still nursing my hangover. You can sit down.” She grabs a chair and sits.“So you just decided to ditch us on the weekend?” Khanyiswa hasn't been speaking to me because I dropped them. Emihle sent a voice note swearing at me. Why are they mad?“My man comes first.” Without a doubt. It's Bangizwe over everyone.“You're choosing a man over your friends? What happens when you break up?” I stare at her like, what the hell did you just say?“Which relationship lasts forever? I'm basking in the moment. It's not like I'll kill myself when it's over,

    33.AVETHANDWA SISULUWe drove to the mall after my doctor's appointment. Luckily there's no bun baking in the oven. The doctor injected me with Depo-Provera which means after every three months I have to come back. It was not my first time injecting Depo. When I was seventeen, my grandma found out from one of her stokvel friends that I was having sex. The drama she caused? She took me to the clinic right away. The injection hurt like it used to but this time Bangizwe was with me. My grandma always gave me stinky eyes for having sex at a young age. She still doesn't know I broke my virginity at fifteen. It's honestly a miracle how I've escaped pregnancy but it could also be because Bangizwe is the first guy I've had sex with without a condom. I wasn't in love before but I think I am now. Things are different with him. Like right now. Look at me allowing him to take me shopping? I didn't even complain this time because if my man wants to take me shopping then who am I to complain? Plus
