A Twisted Fate - Part 20

  “What do you mean I lied to you?” Bernard asked his daughter. Luyando moved her phone from her right hand and ear and placed it on the other side as she steered the vehicle out of the parking spot. “Tulani and Natasha are engaged!” she yelled. Bernard, who had been expecting such a call since the day Tulani approached him and asked for his daughter’s hand in marriage calmly stood up from the couch and went to take the call outside. Seeing the look on her husband’s face, Martha knew right away who was on the other end of the line. “You promised that you would talk to Tula for me!” Like a mad woman, Luyando pressed hard on the accelerator and headed towards her father’s house. “I kept that promise to you Lulu,” Bernard said. “I spoke to Tulani about you just as I promised.”

“You mean what he said about talking to Tulani on your behalf?” Natasha asked smugly.Luyando’s heart almost skipped a beat. “How did you –“Natasha laughed. “About two months ago dad followed me to my room looking nervous and all and talking about things that didn’t make sense at all. However, I could tell the whole time that he was apologizing for something he did…something he couldn’t bring himself to say.“I knew right away that it had something to do with you and Tula. A bit of pressure on my mother and she spilled everything. Have I answered your question?”The frown on Luyando’s face darkened. She was looking at her father as if to burn him down with her fiery disdain-filled eyes.“I never told her anything,” Bernard defended himself against his daughter’s acc

Confused, Nataniel asked, “then why did you come here, especially now? Did someone ask you to do this? To force me to pull out of the race?”Martha laughed. “Don’t flatter yourself Mr President.”Very suddenly and unexpectedly, he got up from his chair and dropped to his knees before her.“What do you think you’re doing?” Martha tried to pull away from him but he was holding on to her legs and sobbing like a child.“I know I have no right to ask this of you –““Oh don’t be so predictable!” She said scornfully. “I am not one of those people that buy into your political manipulations. I don’t care how far deep you are in pretending to be an outstanding man, I know who you are. I know the real you you miserable bastard.”“It’s not

 On the way to the TV station, Natasha kept calling her mother but the phone kept ringing and ringing.“She’s still not answering?” Tulani asked.“No,” Natasha said, looking extremely worried.“Try your dad.” Tulani suggested.Natasha called her father and he answered after the forth ring. “Baby, where are you?” He sounded almost out of breath.“Dad, is everything okay? Where’s mum? I’ve been trying to reach her for a while now.”“Oooh…your mother…she is…she is…she should be sleeping I think.” Bernard stammered through the lie as he looked down at his wife’s sleeping figure on the couch. Having suffered through many episodes of panic attacks in the past, Bernard had learnt to keep Martha&rsq

“Oh no, not at all.” Nataniel quickly chipped in, rubbing the dirt away. “Just a little rub…and it’s all gone!”“Good thing it doesn’t stick!” Natasha said, shaking Patricia by her shoulders. “See,” she pointed to where the stain had been. “It’s all gone, relax.”“I am sorry….” The twenty-six year old make-up artist cried.“Patricia, you are going to make our guest uncomfortable if you continue acting like this.” Natasha admonished her. “He already said its okay, and the mark is gone so pull yourself together. Do you think you will be able to finish in this state?”Patricia nodded profusely.Nataniel Kaponda silently thanked the nervous make-up artist for making the first meeting with his daughter less awkward and less stressful for him

Mr Kaponda busted out laughing. “Except she isn’t the First Lady! I don’t want to jump the gun and start making assumptions. If there’s one thing I have learnt about elections in this country, it is that the actual results are always unpredictable; it’s anybody’s game.”“You are very humble Sir, it’s a rare trait to see…in politics.”“You flatter me Ms Chimeko,” he said.“You still haven’t answered my question,” she reminded him. “Why are you trying to get close to me? It can’t be because of the interview, I have seen you take on giants before without breaking a sweat so a political amateur like me wouldn’t faze you in the slightest.”Nataniel Kaponda laughed heartily. “You truly are bold, perhaps even more than all those giants I’ve faced in the past.

“Nevertheless, my family is my life so I always strive to be there for them and to be the best husband and father I can be; it’s every man’s responsibility.”“A very diplomatic response, thank you very much Sir.” Natasha said, feigning a smile for the umpteenth time during the interview.“I think I should add something though,” Mr Kaponda added before Natasha could chip in the next question. “I think its public knowledge that before I married my wife, I led a very questionable life as a young man. There was a very brief period in my life when my life fell apart.“Back then as youngsters, our answer to every problem was alcohol and, I am not trying to make excuses here but, I made a lot of mistakes back then…bad decisions that I am not proud of. I turned my life around since and I have learnt from all my mistakes. I think that honestly, tha

“That’s where we are going Sir.” She relayed the message.“Good.” Mr Mulenga said. “Ayanda and I were look at some lodges Luyando loved to frequent. Sean is going to be okay Natasha.” Joshua reassured his daughter in-law. “Luyando might be crazy, but she is not downright evil. She wouldn’t harm a child.”She slashed herself when she was a kid! Natasha thought. God knows what she is doing to my son right now. As the thought crossed her mind, the tears started rolling again.“Thank you Mr Mulenga.” She said and cut the line.Tulani reached over to her and grasped her hand. “He is going to be just fine Tasha.” He said. He needed to believe those words as much as he needed her to.Standing in the middle of the living room and looking down at the four year old boy smiling up at her wi

Four Months Later After years of waiting and begging for her heart, Tulani finally got his wish when he wedded Natasha. In Tulani style, it was an extravagant ceremony, a page out of a fairy-tale. At thirty years old, divorced and with a child, Natasha would have never imagined herself being the centre of attention at such a profligate event. But it was exactly what Tulani wanted; a loud statement proclaiming his undying love for the woman of his dreams. A few minutes before the bride and groom were to make an entrance at the reception that evening, Nataniel Kaponda begged to have a private audience with them in their room. “That should be him,” Natasha got up from the bed, shaking and almost breaking in a sweat. Tulani went over to her, pushed the train of her second wedding dress for the day to the side and pulled her towards him. “You’re g

THE DNA TEST - Episode 1

  Trust is very delicate and might never be gotten back once lost. In a marriage union between two people, trust is one essential trait they have to possess for one another. It isn’t a child’s play for someone to leave their father and mother to unite with another person for the rest of their life. For you to effectively live happily in your matrimonial home, you have to trust your spouse more than you have ever trusted anyone else; except God.   Can you eat, sleep and relax in the company of another person except there’s a presence of Trust?
