2024-10-29 19:42:56Funani had found Mpumi in his mother’s house. She was about to leave when he invited her to have smoothie with him.
Mpumi hesitated a while, but finally, she brought herself over. He handed her a glassful of the blended juice. She looked around and she saw cubes of apples, oranges and an egg shell. She realised that those where the ingredients. He slid her a plate with a cheese sandwich. He was having the same lunch. He reached to sit on the table (kitchen counter) so that he was higher than her. He had not much to say. She started eating like he was. She was beginning to feel comfortable and he saw that. That encouraged him to talk, “You can sit up here with me if you like.”
“You helped me on that day of the heavy rain…” she said. “I didn’t treat you right around your friends.”
“You really didn’t. They still laugh at me to this day. It’s no big deal anyway.”
“I was mean.

She entered and found a man sitting at the big table. He had his palms covering his face. “Grace, please I said I want to be alone,” he said as soon as he knew there was someone that had entered. He thought that was his secretary.The woman neared the man. “Oh, no. It is not Grace.” She went behind him, “The day seems frustrating for some and superb for others.”“And I’m having the worst of it,” he moaned not lifting his head to see the woman.“No, so sad.” She put her hands on his shoulders, she pressed gently, that gave the man a sudden tickle. He startled, and finally turned to see the lady. “I’m only giving you a massage. Are you not comfortable?”“No, no. It’s just&he

Coco was the first to run towards. She wanted to know already. “Look!” she said bending to handle the pocking wires. “Sparkling.”“Get away from there!” Dion finally made it, and without realising it he stepped on the bare wires and the electric shock ran all over his body. Dave saw this. He was too scare to touch him, he started screaming, “Help! Someone, help!” he quickly ran to one of the houses that circled their shack. He budged in.MamaZee was still complaining about her electricity that instantly ran out, “Damn this thing! It finally cut out.” She was with her cousin whom had been staying there since forever. From the start of the week MamaZee had been complaining about how quick her power meter was running to out.

Dion was hospitalized for the injuries he obtained after the electric shock he suffered. Vincent and Dave would be alone at home that night. They were heading home, while discussing their feelings along the way. They were very devasted at the accident. They tried conversing to figure things out.Dave had lost faith in Mpumi, “She said she would go to church with us. She doesn’t want us anymore. Don’t you think she put that cable there to hurt dad?”“Anyone could’ve gotten hurt.”“Then, it should’ve been me! She wanted to me dead, not daddy! Vincent, it all makes sense now!”“Dave, come on. Shut up.”“But, Vincent—”“Shut up! You know, I’d never let anyone hurt you. What are you saying about me? You mean I’m too weak to protect you? Come on, man.”Their journey continued to stretch through the busy crowds.…&h

It was finally the end of the day. Bowman was standing at Gladys’s door step. He would not go in, he was not staying, he told her. “Thanks again, for the cake.” “Don’t mention it.” An awkward silence. “Um,” Bowman asked, “do I have to say it again that you should come to the office to sign the contract on Monday? The manager will have it drafted and signed by then, and—” “Shh,” she held onto his lips, “I don’t want to talk business. What I want…” she was drawing more closer, “is…” she tried kissing him. He was hesitant for a while, and then he pulled back. “I… I don’t think this is professional.” “Professional?” she was not following. “I don’t mix business with pleasure. They go terribly wrong.” “I thought…” “I’m sorry I led you on. I did—I admit that, but I’m realising now that I won’t be able to go through with this. I won’t stop thinking of you. That, I know. You are a successful business woman, yourself, I’m sure you understand. There are always boundaries in a work enviro

Gibson had Joseph follow him and Bowman everywhere. Joseph was rather pleased for the experience. He learned from observing everything Gibson did. He copied what he needed to copy.“Gibson, do you think I need more destructions in my life?” Bowman wanted to know. They were in a six-door car. He sat next to Gibson, while Joseph sat on the side seat. The driver in front had the glass mirror closed, and soft music playing. Everyone was relaxed in that car. Everyone was relaxed around Bowman. “What sort of destruction, if you may?”“I mean like um… Women?”Joseph was getting interested in the two men’s discussion. He wanted to hear the response Gibson would give to Bowman. The magazine in his hand did not seem as interesting anymore, but he kept his eyes on it. Of course, to keep up an act.“Is there someone, Bowman?”“Well.”“Okay, there is someone.”The

“I walked out of here, but in attempt to start a new life I’ve only managed to mess it all up. I can’t live out there. Not alone. I’m lost in the dark out there alone. I can’t…” she battled with saying it, “I can’t live without you. This family has become all that I am. I don’t want to be anywhere else where none of you are. Nothing goes well. That’s just too bad.”She laid down, and like that she was deep into sleep.Mpumi only woke up the next day when the children were at school and Dion was washing the dishes. She woke up and sat quietly. Dion finished packing the dishes away. He began to hear her cries. He was too afraid to approach her.Mpumi saw him shrug at a distance. “Oh, Dion,” she went to him. “You are no monster. I was lying. I was only hurting when I said that to you.”“Here’s your breakfast,” he passed a plate with dry bread. &

Mpumi and Dion were at the grocery store and they did not have enough money to pay for the items in their trolly. Mpumi was still trying to convince Dion why it was okay to cheat people into paying for their grocery.“Remember when you said presentation is key? Yeah, you look pretty convincing and no one would say no to you. Look at you—homeless and tired. Me… well skinny and hungry. Boy, we can do this.”“We’re cheating people. That can’t be good. When did we get to that?”“Living in the orphan home taught me to hustle, forget your shame. Just hustle to keep living.”“I thought you had a mother. How did you end up in the orphan home?”“She neglected me a lot when she was alive. I was hungry, cold and lonely. So, I went and searched love from other places. Come, let’s go.”The line was lessening at the till. Dion was becoming much more nervous. He coul

When Mpumi and Dion returned home, they started packing everything away. They had something to eat and left some for the young ones. Mpumi saw Dion begin to be miserable again. He sat at his corner with the book facing down on his knees. He stared into space and sat quietly. She went to him. “Dion,” she put her hand on his shoulder. He startled for that while and got himself together again. “What’s wrong?”He did not know what to say to her.“How do I comfort you?” she asked the silent man. She held his cheeks, and that immediately reminded her of something, “Hey, I also bought something.” She got up. She took out a bottle of cream and razors, “You, my dear, are getting a new haircut and we’re definitely doing away with that bush on your face.”“What are you talking about?”“I bought cream, and razors. I’m giving you a trim and a shave. We’re getting your

He was her first love after all.She had dated some guys before him but she never quite felt anything for any other man before Ray. She couldn’t understand her feelings, she was too young.They were both at Mpumi’s motel now. Mpumi was hesitant on letting him in but in the end she did. He sat at the small round table while she remained standing.

I collapsed and laid on the pool of my own blood, I asked you to help me, but you r

Chapter 149Kefentse was the happiest man in his entire friend group. Things were working out for him and in his favour. He was taking over his father’s company. This was something he worked his entire life for. To be recognized by his father meant everything to him.“And now, you must bring us a wife.”“What?” Kefentse couldn’t believe the words of his father.“My son, you have just acquired a thrown. Now you must have an heir. With this much wealth and fortune, many vultures will come out of the woodworks to try to steal from you. Besides that, people are more likely to trust a man with a family. You are at an age to ground yourself.”Kefentse was still so struck with shock. He did not see that coming.His father went and on and on about his next plans for Kefentse’s life, “Ooh, I know a few girls around your age. All from respectable families. Say, we should set dates! ...”

Chapter148The kids were trying to find out who leaked a very private piece of information about Vincent’s father.“I don’t know.” Gift argued for himself, “The only reason I was beefing with Vincent back then was because I thought he would take you away from me. Other than that, I really have no problems with that kid. I was just jealous…”“You’re not jealous anymore?”“No. Ever since you claimed me, I really had no reason to be anymore.”Sphesihle was touched to hear that. In fact, she remembered the reasons why she liked him in the first place—he used to be so sweet. She could swoon over his sweet words but that was not the time, they had serious matters at their hands.Whoever leaked that news what in the school, because the first article to be released about the matter was published in that school’s news-site. They had to find out who did that.&

Chapter 147Bowman started weeping bitterly. Mpumi was only flustered, and at loss for words.“When he woke up, he wanted hurt himself again. The doctors had to strap him down and sedate him.”Bowman tumbled to his knees. “Please…”He crawled over to Mpumi’s feet.“Please, you have to help him. You have to watch over him—at least keep him alive for me!”Bowman was actually on his knees, grovelling for her help. Mpumi once thought that she wanted him to do that, but now that he was, she couldn’t stomach it. She saw the pain in that man’s eyes. He was a single father who was terrified of losing his son. His only child.She started trying to help him up but he was far too heavy to lift. He kept rubbing his palms together, and kept crawling to her as she was backing away from him.“Please. Please, little Miss. Please help my son.”He then grabbed and held on to her knees so that she wouldn’t back away anymore. All over his face were his tears and a very certain sadness.………A little whi

Chapter 146When morning came and Mpumi had to go home, since her shift was over, she remembered to go check on Dion first. She found him on the floor, unconscious and bleeding from his head.She called for help, and all the others rushed in and took him for an emergency care. Mpumi was worried, she couldn’t sit still as she waited for the results. Bowman and his family were at the hospital too, after receiving that early morning call. They too looked worried.Mpumi did find herself exchanging glances with Bowman. She wondered what that was about. She was able to go home when the doctors confirmed that Dion was okay. She could stay up and blame herself for what happened to Dion on her watch, but she was too tired and too sleepy.Mpumi quickly, slipped into her pyjamas (nightwear), and into her sheets—DING DONG!Came a doorbell at her door. She was tired. She simply scoffed, and then buried her head under her pillow. She was determined on ignoring that vividly loud doorbell.DING DONG

Chapter 145There was silence as Mpumi was thoroughly thinking about her decision. The Hill family had asked for her help to bring Dion back home. The ball was in Mpumi’s court.She then turned to Bowman, looked at him dead in the eye, “You fired me and then I left. I left your son and your darned company, so you can have all the control you wanted. As soon as I’m gone, your son goes missing? None of you knew where he was until I came along. I came back and I found him. You should be thanking me.”Mpumi continued, “In fact, you should be begging me to help you and your little precious son.”“I am begging you, Mpumi—”“Not you, Liam. I want Mr. Bowman Hill to beg me himself.”Bowman simply scoffed. He couldn’t believe the audacity of the girl. How dare she demand him to beg?“I see that proud smirk at the corner of your mouth, Mr. Bowman Hill.” Mpumi sa

Chapter 144At school, Gift was always happy to see Sphesihle. He would always beam and brightly so around her. He didn’t care if anyone saw him with her. Gift knew that he was the most admired kid in that school. His social value did not decrease on just being seen with Sphesihle—if anything, Sphesihle’s social value was more likely increase.“I get so excited to come to school nowadays,” he said smiling at Sphesihle.They were in class, first period. They spoke in low tones so that they wouldn’t make too much noise. That was allowed. This was their Life Orientation teacher, and she allowed socialization among pupils as long as they used their ‘inside voices’—as long as they were not too loud.“I get to hang out with you again.” Gift continued, “Remember how tight we used to be? And we were such a power couple.”Meanwhile, Sphesihle couldn’t shake off the uncomfort

Chapter 143Mpumi could see a clear view of his face. His front hairs were dangling at his forehead, overgrown and almost obscuring his sight. His beard was as long and tangled in what could soon turn into locks.As she looked closer, she saw his eyes sunken in and dark circles around them. She saw his cheeks all bones and protruding.Shocked! Mpumi’s throat was almost as dry as the sand in the Saharan Desert. Her tongue had never felt so heavy as she tried saying her first words upon seeing the man’s face. On her own face was the look of sheer terror!“DION??!!”He only looked into empty space and mimed what even he couldn’t make sense of. He seemed very far and lost. Mpumi got closer to have a closer look at his eyes.“Dion?”However, he looked lifeless almost as though there was no soul living in there. Mpumi could only wonder what happened to him. How he even got to that place, in the firs

Chapter 142The nurses did not succeed at collecting the patient’s DNA. The patient in room X1. He was aggressive and wouldn’t let any of them close to him. They couldn’t even take a photo of him. This would make it even harder to identify him. They needed to find his next of kin.They nurses were with the matron in her office. They were all brainstorming ideas on a way forward. The matron only went silent. She didn’t know what else to say. She was still thinking.“I think I can help him…” Mpumi had said.They turned to her, looked at her and wondered, “How do you think you can help? Not only is he mental but he’s also dangerous.”“I’ll take my own chances, but I think I have to try to get through to him.” Mpumi could clearly see that none of those people were convinced.She had to try harder. “Look, as you know that I’ve worked at a clinic before.
