Billionaire For The Holidays Chapter Forty One
Part 1"I'm not your friend and I'm also not your enemy so what am I?"Let me tell you a story. A story about love. Hate. Desire. Obsession.Xolo and Lindani have always been together. Everyone knows where there's Lindani then you'll truly see Xolo there with him. Shouting at Lindani with the loudest voice his lungs can be capable of. Everything is Lindani's fault. Even if he knows it was his own fault.They both don't realise what they truly have. They both don't understand it. But they want to. They want to know why they can't leave without each other. Why they can't be in a room without being in the same place. Why they seem jealous of everyone who comes close to the other. Why they feel their hearts beating ever so fast when one is around.This is a love story. A love story stronger than time. And stronger than even death. ***PrefaceWhose to say I can't love my best friend? Whose to say my best friend can't be my enemy too? Whose to say I can't be someone of great power in the

Two: GiftThe day started out like any other day. It was a hot day in Awelima village. Everyone had their summer outfits on. Kids were playing games on their way to school. While young adults were arguing about one thing or the other. This was all normal.But what happened next was not. In fact it was all quite jaw shattering to all."God heavens what have I done to deserve you as a son?! What is all this?!" These were the wails of Xolo's mother as she herded him along the path. Everyone who was either close to them or was just curiously watching them. Everyone knew whose house they were headed to just by the direction they headed to. They were going to the priest's house.All the gossiping parties of the village were already on toe with them ready to know what drama it was this early morning.MamXala held her son by his ear as she dragged him along. He just silently followed her. Without any fight. It was like he had already submitted himself to the punishment or

Three: Gossip"Uphi unyana wakho MamXala?" Zwelinye asked suddenly after his dinner. He knew his son as a late comer in everything. Even at school he wouldn't be surprised if he came all the time late there. It was his long time habit. Even as a baby he came out two weeks late so it was normal for them to start eating dinner without him but it was a cause for worry if they actually finished eating without Xolo already munching his mouth full of food.Zwelinye looked at his wife who was looking down at her plate that strangely she hadn't touched. "Uphi uXolo?" He asked again this time having effect. MamXala braved up her face. "He will be no longer living with us. Xolo is no longer part of us""What nonsense are you talking about? Did you and your son have a fight again?"MamXala stood up. She started taking the plates. "Xolo is at the pastor's house. If you want to know about why I threw him out you'll have to ask him. He'll have to answer you himself. I won't. "Zwelinye watched Mam

Four: KeepXolo sat down in class. He was still thinking about this morning. What Lindani told him. That he couldn't stay away from him. That he wouldn't. What did that mean? Xolo always saw Lindani as this very calm and collected person at all situations. It was surprising and mostly shocking to see him like that. He was both angry and possessive. Of who? Me? But how?Things were so complicated. They all threatened to throw Xolo to the highest point of stress. He scratched at his chin. A habit he had taken from his father. He only did it when he was either nervous or thinking. And right now he was doing both those things."Mr Jacobs don't you need to leave class now?" Mr Williams chested. It was normal for Xolo not to even attend the first period. He was always going to Lindani's. At first it drove the teachers crazy. But then they started to accept the reality of it. There was no changing Xolo. No amount of shouting or punishments from his teachers or his parents

Five: FightingLindani got two plates from the kitchen for himself and Xolo. His mother only spared him a single glance. Deciding not to say anything to him. When he disappeared to the other side of the room. She started to give a threatening stare to her husband. "Tata why do I feel like you are not listening to me in this house? Why do you find it hard to fight for your wife? I just told you about that crazy woman called MamXala harassing me in the church that you claim to be ours. She does not respect me. Akandiboni in fact! You need to teach her a lesson. Start by throwing out that bastard son of hers!"Maseko placed down his spoon. "I lost my appetite." He got up from his place at the table. He gave his wife a dirty stare of his own. "You know you should be ashamed of yourself. You call yourself a woman who prays to God. Then I believe you should be very kind towards others. Not causing fights wherever you go."He left the room leaving Mamfundisi speechless. The minu

Six: ManyLindani had a headache. He knew that even before he could wake up properly. He opened his eyes. His vision immediately assaulted by the brightness of a light bulb right on top of his head. He closed his eyes again covering them with his arm. Just from that he knew this wasn't his room.So where was he? He turned to his side on the bed too soft to be his own bed. He opened his eyes again. Only to see someone's back.He blinked trying to figure out what he was doing in a room that wasn't his with a naked girl beside him. His memory led him to the kiss he and Xolo had witnessed last night. And then to the fight he had with Xolo.He remembered not being able to do anything but hit his head on the back of the house. "Stupid! Stupid!" He yelled at himself. Why did he do that? Why did he disagree with Xolo?He felt like going to find Xolo wherever he was. Just apologize to him. So that everything could go back to normal.But that was just the thing. There was no normal.

Seven: Me Xolo and Lindani had both their hands intertwined with each other. They had both returned to the Maseko household. And they couldn't stop smiling and looking at each other."Today I want to go talk to my mother" he said,"she must have calmed down now. I miss her so much. I want to fight with her some more."Lindani busied himself with Xolo's fingers. "I think it's a good idea. This fight of yours has dragged on long enough. But please tell me what really made her to get so angry with you?" Xolo gave Lindani an intense gaze. "I will tell you. Just not now okay? Let me first solve this and then I'll tell you everything." Lindani kissed Xolo's hand. " I will be waiting then."Xolo was grateful for Lindani's patience. He really wasn't ready tell him now. He would eventually. But not now. He first needed to talk to his mother. He needed to make her understand.Lindani kissed Xolo's hand. "Do you want to go now?" It was difficult for him not to ask Xolo to stay. Stay with hi

Eight: RunningXolo wrapped himself in Lindani's arms. His breathing uneven as he kept on crying. His hiccups being a blade stabbing at Lindani's heart. He still had not told him why he had come back like this. He still had not told him what had happened.Lindani's left hand brushed Xolo's back. "What happened?" He asked, "what did your mother say? Is she the one who has made you cry like this?"Xolo gulped down yet another hiccup. Lifted his eyes up in order to be in eye level with Lindani's. "My mother said a lot. A whole lot of things I don't understand. Things I don't get. If I could I would run away right now. To a world that all of this endless confusion doesn't exist. But running wouldn't help anything right? It would still be the same."Lindani's hands went to wipe at Xolo's eyes. "Don't you cry. I'm here. I always be here with you. Forever. Now tell me what happened. Mh? Make me understand."Xolo sighed sitting up on the bed. He ruffled his dreadlocks. Making a m

Chapter Sixteen It was Easter Sunday. Everyone was merry and gay in Kenneth's house. Everything had worked for good and things were happening just as Kenneth wanted them. He wanted to give Ezula the world and he was starting little by little. "The meat is getting grilled here!" Clive shouted excited as he walked to David who was busy with the meat. "I didn't know you were this crazy." Andrew laughed at his driver as he took another swing of the beer. He and June had been invited by Clive to come join them for the holiday. And they gladly agreed. They flew to the quiet village to honour Clive's invitation. Andrew was more than happy to see more of Clive's family. It was something he had yearned to see for a while. That and the village Clive had been fond of so much. He could see why. The place was beautiful. With beautiful people. It was very intriguing place just like the one that came out of it. It explained a lot about Clive's personality. "Clive". David shivered as Cliv

I mean it's six AM you're awake at this time so don't pretend with me please. Wake you Clive." Clive still didn't move. His eyes were still closed. His back facing David. David frowned. " So you really won't wake up huh?" David got up from bed he walked to the other side of the bed where Clive's face was facing. He knelt with his knees on the floor and leaned towards Clive to give him a kiss on his forehead. He couldn't kiss him though because just when his lips were about to reach Clive's forehead Clive decided to change sleeping positions. Instead of his side now he was sleeping on his back. David blinked, his mouth in a twist as he knew that Clive was very much awake but just toying with him. Any other day David would have had the time for Clive's games. But he truly didn't have the time

Chapter Fourteen" Baby calm down now." Kenneth kept on pleading Ezula who wasn't giving him a listening ear. " Okay I admit that I actually went overboard this time but it was necessary my love. It truly was." Kenneth had again tried to make Ezula's family understand how much he loved Ezula but yet again after a while of trying, two months in total he had only gotten insults from Ezula's aunt and uncle. They threw him out every time he tried to talk to them. It had gotten to the point that he had even tried to call Naomi for help but Naomi wanted to do nothing with him for a while so it was obvious she would pick up his phone when he called. Ezula had told him to stop a long time ago. But he refused. He really wanted to prove it to Ezula's family how much he loved him. Even his own parents had agreed to their love. Now only Ezula's own family was left. Kenneth was so desperate for Ezula's family to see how much he loved Ezula. He wanted them to approve of their relationshi

Chapter ThirteenMivume has been working in the farm for two months. He has gotten the hang of things. He and Mine have gotten close. He has come to understand Mine a bit more and he thought Mine understood him a bit more too. They had their own unspoken code together. They were comfortable with each other. Mivuma was done working in the farm for the day. He was sitting on the stoop of the house now. He was a bit sleepy, he had his head on the door frame. His eyes were closed. He was about to drift off when he felt cold water splash on his face. He jumped up gasping. He saw Mine's mother with a bucket. She looked at him with hatred. " You think this is a hotel or something? Get the hell up and start working!" Mivuma was so confused. " What did I do wrong? I was just at the farm. I have worked!" The mother scoffed at him. " Don't talk back to me, you ungrateful boy!" She snapped at him. " You're supposed to work even after the sun goes down. You get your food and a place to st

Chapter Twelve Clive was shocked when he saw David in the house when he opened the door. There he was, his husband was sitting on the living room sofa. Watching television. His eyes looked at Clive. His face had a smile on it. He ran to where Clive was standing. He hugged Clive. " I missed you!" He kissed Clive's chin since he missed Clive's lips. Because Clive had moved them from David's reach. David still had a big smile on his face. Seemingly didn't notice that Clive was not interested in anything at the moment. " You just left. I don't even understand why you left. You up and left me as if I was nothing. You didn't even tell me that you were coming here." " So?" Clive had his arms crossed around his chest . " So what? I left because I needed some space. Is that so wrong?""No, it's not wrong." David shook his head. "I know I can be a lot to handle sometimes." He looked down at the floor. "I just... I love you so much. And I don't want to lose you." He looked b

He was just a jolly guy. Always happy all the time. " Stop!" Ezula couldn't laugh anymore. He felt like he'd burst if he tried to. "Okay, okay." Juma laughed too, realizing he might have gone too far. "I'll stop. I promise." He put his hands up in surrender. "But I just can't help myself sometimes." He gave Ezula a sheepish look. "You know how I am." " Oh my God". Ezula smiled holding onto his stomach. " You've made me laugh so much." Ezula looked at Juma really looked at him. " Dude there's something different about you. I don't want but it's very present. What's up? " Juma hesitated. He hadn't meant to be so obvious. He'd tried to keep it to himself. But it was hard to hide. "I don't want to ruin your mood." He said slowly. "But I think I'm in love." He felt his face flush. "I'm afra

Chapter Ten Kenneth was ready to step into the next level now. He had asked Ezula to marry him. Now there was only one thing left. To actually get married. They couldn't really get married through the law just yet since his and Naomi's divorce was yet to be finalized. " What's worrying you?" Kenneth's other half court feel him worrying even without being asked. This made Kenneth feel ever so happy. He couldn't understand how the world could hide this very person from him all this while. That he'd been searching for someone to be his own for so long for nothing. " What's wrong Kenneth?" Ezula asked Kenneth again now troubled by the fact Kenneth was not answering him. " It's nothing baby." Kenneth connected both his and Ezula's hands together. " I'm just thinking about the beautiful future you and I are going to have." " And what else, you know I know by now that you can't just be quiet for nothing." Ezula had a knowing smile on his face that told Kenneth to spill eve

She probably saw that Mivuma was there.Before his mother caused some drama by shouting and insulting Mivuma Mine had to go fix the situation immediately."Mother, please!" He rushed to the front of the house where he could hear her shouting. She was standing in the doorway, Mivuma just inside, his head bowed, his expression one of distress. "Mother, stop."He could not see what she was probably doing but she knew it wouldn't be great. " Mom leave our guest alone please. He still tired from his journey." " Our guest?!" His mother shouted.
