INSERT 149 ~ 1 month later ~ Xhanti and Lusanda s wedding was on the 22nd of June , preparations were going well nakuXhanti it was like Ayanda , Ndumie was the best man then Ayanda , Msira and Mawande. Maid of honor and Bride s maids were Lusanda s friends and her siblings. My appointment with my gynae was on Tuesday, everything was still ok , my little angel was growing. We arrived in Cofimvaba on the 20th. I was 24 weeks, most of the things were done already. Night before the wedding, we were baking in the kitchen with other makotis. My fone rang it and I picked up. Me : babomdala Xhanti : hey last born , I was checking if i phone yakho ayikho ku Ayanda nha Me : ok , ila kimi Xhanti : sure Few minutes later I received a text sms. I wish I met you before my brother did It was a very short sms but it was hard to make sense out of it. I looked around , ungenwe yini vele u Xhanti , I deleted the sms kwangoko. That was the second secret I had to keep from Ayanda, bendingumfazi onjani vele but if bendimbonisile , besizothetha uba I was calling for a wedding and a funeral. My brother - in - law tied the knot following day , it was really a beautiful wedding. Xhanti s friends were also there. Mina nje ama morning sickness bedlala ngami, Yanda would come and check on me now and again. He would freak out if afika ngihlafuna , what eva engiyidlayo bekumele ibe ngiyenzelwe nguye. God he was really frustrating me because there was no one obenendaba nodlisa mina. Following day wanxityiswa u Lusanda and this time my mother - in - law refused athiwe igama ngu makhulu wathi she was going to do it herself. Wathiywa igama ngu Lomzi wangu Kamvalethu. Wadliswa utsiki then she came and joined us. Makhulu called me athi I must show Kamva what to do. I agreed , Sisi Seli bekhona naye. Me : welcome sisi Kamva : Im so not going to keep up with this shit , my weave , my nails and my make up God knows besendinaar already Seli : nono , we dont use that language here , didnt they tell you endlini enkulu Kamva : sorry sisi Seli : Inga nana, please dish up the tripe for ogogo Me : ok sisi I opened the pot , I ran outside and puked , I went to the tap and rinsed my mouth. Ayanda : bhabha yini mfazi wam he said that eza kimi Me : nothing serious bhabha , just morning sickness Ayanda : you need to rest Marhadebe Me : cha Yanda its 8 am , I will be fine Lomzi passed us ngisagobile. Lomzi : nangoke amaqande wenu wahoyeni , mna ndinomakoti wam u Kamvalethu Ayanda : uya kwathetha ukun... I held his arm Me : let it go bhabha Ayanda : no Inganathi !! what kind of a mother is she , ohlula abantwana bakhe , mayengafuni wena akafuni mna moss.

Seli : nibambane kanjalo ke nana, I love the way you are Me : sisi I dont mean to disrespect you but can I make coffee instead of dishing the tripe Seli : of course nana, Kamva dish the tripe for oogogo She opened the pot and frowned Seli : is there any problem nono?

Seli dished sahambisa ukudla then ngaqalisa elasesbayeni itiye. Kamva : I need to go and check if imake up yami iserite Seli : amen , cawe iphumile It was like that for the whole day , I wanted to scream bengenzela isiyezi nje u Kamva. Following day I had to wake up , ezilalini in winter akudlalwa kumnyama whooreey , it was 6:15 when my alarm went off. It was better because amanzi besiwabeka kwalapha endlini. Our house was completed.

Kamva was still sleeping. I boiled water and took it to Makhulu , Lomzi and baba. We made breakfast no Yanda everyone was awake. We had breakfast , Kamva went to sit on the couch. Makhulu : Kamva zukulwana uhlala esicambeni up until certain time Kamva : what is that makhulu Makhulu showered here the grass mat.

I tried to stand up but I felt so light headed , Ayanda stood up and held me , my chest was starting to be tight. I held my chest , Ayanda carried me to our house. He bought my pills, I took them and he made me lie on top of him. He didnt utter a word only the stream of tears bezisehla on his cheeks. I couldnt tell whether he was hurt , angry or what? The pain I was feeling was unexplainable. I was hurt to the core of my heart. I wanted to scream out loud but dooo izinyembezi. For the first time in my life I saw Ayanda crying angabi namsindo kushiwo something ibim pisser off. We laid there quietly, oobabomdala came in. I was drifting nicely to Thongoland. Ndabagqibela bethetha , when I woke up Ayanda was still there oobabomdala bengekho. I had a sharp pain in my abdomen. I stood up but the pain was unbearable. I winced once in pain , Ayanda quickly stood up. Ayanda : Inganathi !! Bhabha, what is it ? Me : pains I showered him , he took my bag and his keys and carried me to the car. Ndumiso and Msira saw us. Msira : yini Ayanda?
