Chapter 94. Joshua asked Njabulo to come with us aswel. I didnt see the need but I didnt object. We drove in one car. Endleleni babexoxa ku-right. I was quet and glad that they let me be. In my head I was thinking about Julia. I wasnt spending much time with her like I should. Atleast eka-Onica ingane yayihleli naye. I didnt know about the relationship Joshua was having with him nanokuth wayemondla yini. The last thing I needed was for Joshua to be the kind of the father that was never there for his kids, the kind that just throw the money and never look back. I really needed to spend time with Julia and be a mother. Ngaze ngalala ngicabanga about my own mothering skills. Joshua woke me up and said sesifikile. Me: Are you sure its here? Joshua: IseMhlungwane lana. ULindiwe unginikile i-direction. Nawu umuzi esiyakuwo. Me: Mkhulu: Joshua: Ya mkhulu. Bongeka: Asingene guys sebezoze bathuke ukth asiphumi ngani. Joshua: You ready? Me: I guess so. Joshua: Remember what we talked about. You are a lady. Behave like a lady that we all know you are. Me: I will. Joshua: Okay, lets go We all got out of the car sangena esangweni. Njabulo: Maybe kumele sikhuleke he whispered. Joshua: Sizothini? He knocked on the door sezwa izwi lith asingene. Sangena. There were two men sitting on the couch. Nathi sahlala phansi. Joshua: Sanibona Men: Yebo sanibona. Joshua: Ninjani Man1: Siyavuka bantabami. Sesingezwa kini? Joshua: Nathi siyaphila Man1: Aw MaNgcolosi nasihlasela emini bebade mtanami kwenzenjani?

Ingathuma kanjani izingane zizothetha amacala ayo. Man2: Impela iyedelela. Sizokhuluma ini nje nezingane. Joshua: Empeleni uThandeka usesele nathi. Man1: Uphi uMemela?

Man2: Aw manje nizeniphelezele uThandeka nje yini? Joshua sat up wabuka uNjabulo. Man1: UMemela uhlangana kuphi noCebekhulu noMbatha? Joshua: Akusele muntu kwaMemela. UThandeka usele yedwa. Yithi kuphela asele nabo. Ubengeke avele ahambe yedwa nje. I could hear the anger in Joshuas voice. Man1: Ubengafika nanangu uMaBhengu. Okunguyena esimaziyo. Joshua: Nathi nje uyasibona uzosazi Njabulo coughed dramatically. Man2: Unenkani mfana kaCebekhulu Joshua: Ngixolise ngokukhuluma kabi baba Man1: Kulungile-ke. he looked at me nami ngabheka phansi. Lindiwe walked in with a chair followed by a woman. The moment she looked at me she began crying. Man1: Biza uMthunzi Lindiwe. Nangu udadewenu esefikile Lindiwe looked at me and smiled qede waphuma. We sat in silent kuzwakala umsindo wokukhala kukamama kuphela. After a while Duma walked in elandelwa obhuti ababili. Man2: Ayke bafana nangu udadewenu esefikile. Thandeka mtanami laba abafowenu. Lona uDuma umzala wakho bese lomncanyana uMthunzi umfowenu omncane bese lona uNathi indodana yami endala. Mina noyihlo siyelamana. Okusho ukth ngiwuyihlo omncane. I didnt have a courage to respond ngavele ngababuka nje and said nothing. Lindiwe walked in again with a tray efake ama-glass then another girl followed her with a tray efake amabhodlela e-drink. Man1: Baningi-ke abantu lapha ekhaya. Nabazukulu inqwaba. Kwavele kwathuleka nje. Atlast she stopped crying and other people left the room kwasala mina noJoshua nomama nobaba. Infact they wanted Joshua to leave the room but wanqaba and I was greatful because I wasnt strong enough to be on my own. Man1: Manje wena uyini kuThandeka? Joshua: Angazi ukth ubaba uqonde ukuthini? Man2: Aybo wemfana. Musa ukudlala wena. Phela sibadala, siyabona. Akubona ubungani nje qha lobu. Joshua: Ew baba eqinisweni thina besize lapho ngoba sifuna umama kaThandeka. Man1: Wuye lona. Joshua: Okunye sekungayekelwa elinye ilanga. Man2: Thandeka ndodakazi. Besazi ngokuba khona kwakho. Eqinisweni sikucingile eminyakeni edlule kodwa sangakuthola. UMemela wathutha eMnambithi wangaziwa ukuthi ukuphi. Safika sekusele izindonga nje. Man1: Impela uqinisile umfowethu. Sakucinga mtanami. Nodadewenu elwa ekufuna. Me: Udadewethu? Man1: Nanibabili. Ngeshwa lo omunye akaphilanga. Man2: Emva kokuzalwa kukaLindiwe izinto zazingezinhle mtanami. Kwavela ukuthi udadewenu uth uyagodola. Ilapho-ke unkosikazi aveza khona ukth unayo ingane eyahamba noMemela ngoba ecabanga ukuth ngekaMemela kanti eyalapha ekhaya. Me: Ngiyiwele? I looked at her. Mum: Yebo mtanami. she looked at me.
