Ins #182 The following day was the day we went back to ekasi. Sino neatly packed our clothes in the suitcase and we got ready to go, we checked out at the hotel and then I had to sent the hired car back. Our flight was at 3pm, We checked in at the airport then went to eat so long while waiting for the plane to arrive. 2 hours later we arrived at our city and Sinos dad came to pick us up then he drove off and parked at my home which was now our house until we moved out. We thanked him and took out the luggage, he got in and Sino made him tea while I went to our room to put the bags down. He asked us about our trip and Sino couldnt stop talking about the good time we had and even showed him pictures on the digital camera, an hour later he left and we were alone again. The gusheshe and hyundai was parked outside and the following day it was back to work for me and to Sino it was back to the lectures. Me: pillar, ndifuna uLikhanye azohlala nathi the nanny can be a sleep-in I dont mind because you still studying. Sino: yuh akazovuma la mama shes gonna say umyeni wakhe umlindile and utshayisa qho ngo 6pm every weekdays. Me: its fine noba utshayisa ngo 6 mna I want our kid to live with us now and Im sure your parents wont mind. Sino: no they wont but bazoba ne worry because they so used to having her around the house especially umama. Me: bazoba right pillar besibabolekile its our kid not theirs. Sino: haibo nana! Me: hahaha tomorrow well have a talk with them. Sino: sure then. Sino prepared supper and we ate, after we were done we went to take a bath and got into bed with no clothes on. We enjoyed sleeping with our birthday suites but now that our kid was going to stay with us full time I think it would be fair for us to start getting used to wearing our night clothing again. The new week started, my alarm went off and I got ready for work. My wife took out the shirt Id be wearing and the right matching tie while I went to take a quick shower when I got out my clothes were ironed and ready, I smiled :) thats the fruits of having a wife. She also got ready then we ate cereal and walked out going to our cars and drove off. I was thinking of selling my gusheshe, I no longer had the desire to go for spinnings anymore but I felt I needed to buy my wife a proper car that would suite her and make it a surprise. Work went great, I called my pillar during the day just to know what she was up too then we agreed on going to her home to ask for Likhanye to her parents. 4:30pm I knocked off and went back home. Sino was already there, I kissed her and went to change my formal clothing, I ate then we went to the hyundai and I drove off to Sinos home. We parked and went inside. Her parents were there with Sinos sister and Likhanye watching tv, khanye was sitting on top of her grandads lap. Sinos mom: kwanjani ke kwi honeymoon bantwana bam? Sino: bekumnandi kakhulu mama sohlambisa iphoto weve already bought an album so that nizobuka kakuhle. Sinos mom: mmmh haike ndivuya xa benonwabile. Me: enkosi ma.... Sinos mom: seli nihlala for supper its almost ready. Sino: okay I dont think thats going to be a problem. Uh...mom, dad we have a reason for coming here. Me: yes....sizocela uLikhanye uba ahlale nathi full time, now that we married and well be staying together I dont see why she shouldnt be with us. Sinos mom: hee haibo... Sinos dad: yoh....bendikhe ndayicinga kelento, weve grown so attached to umntana wethu sohlala njani ngoku endlini ngaphandle kwakhe. Kodwa ke nyani melba nihlala naye singa rongo ngonga vumi. Sinos mom: yuh ayisebuhlungu intliziyo yam, weve really grown attached to our child iworse ulala nathi qho andisena worry nifuna umthatha. My pillars parents were really being unfair now, its like they were trying to make us feeling guilty for wanting to take our child. Yeah, I know they raised her and had formed a strong bond with her but thats what I lacked with Likhanye, she had a strong bond with her grandpa more then me, they loved her so much that they slept with her in their room even though she could always sleep in Sinos room. Sinos mom: sine worry bantwana bam but ke nyani you are her parents so we dont have a problem, ndicela nimane nimzisa nge weekends okuba simane simbona uLhoza wethu. Sino: okay that wont be a problem andithi myenam? Me: no it wont, we dont mind at all. Sinos mom: okay haike kuhle *smiling* I wondered how they were going to cope when I take my family with me far away from the city. After an hour we went to sit at the dining room while Sinos mom dished up for us. We all agreed on the nanny coming to our house from 7am till 6pm, she wasnt going to sleep in but my in-laws assured us that shes very good with Likhanye and that theyll explain everything to her. After supper Sino helped her mom with the dishes then we said goodnight and left. Days went by, on wednesday we fetched Likhanye and she finally came to live with us. We bought new bedding for her and packed all her clothes in her wardrobe and chest of drawers, she was now using Lisas room. Sino had decorated it making it look more barbie for our princess. At around 08:30pm we both tucked her into bed but didnt close the door then went to our room and got into bed but we slightly closed the door so that we could hear her if she cries. My wife and I cuddled and had our small chats before drifting to sleep. Piya! A little voice shouted behind the door. Me: ngu Lhoza mos lowo.. I got up and went to open the door, there she was carrying her teddy teary, I picked her up and closed the door. Me: awozeli na khanye? Likhanye: funa uyaya noPiya noNana mna afuni uyaya ndedwa. Thats what she was calling me and Sino lately, she picked it up that I call my wife Pillar and she calls me Nana, but she couldnt pronounce Pillar hence she says Piya. Sino: oh shame shes scared to sleep alone kaloku abazali bam bamqhelisile ulala unaye. Me: okay lets sleep with her then. Khanye: yoyika mna funa uyaya(ulala) noPiya noNana, *she was looking at me* I put her in between us and tucked her in. She kept asking us questions and even asked when shell see mama and tata thats Sinos parents until she finally drifted to sleep. In the morning we got up and got ready for the day. Around 7am Khanyes nanny arrived, my pillar showed her where she put her things and gave her a few orders. I left first because she was going to attended at 9am. The day was okay, I had a productive day at work until it was time to go home. I called my pillar and said Ill buy take aways she doesnt have to cook then hung up and drove off to Nandos I was craving for a peri-peri chicken, I decided to stop by at Macdonalds for khanyes kiddies meal after. I arrived and stood in the queue patiently, my turn arrived and I ordered and sat down waiting. Akhona entered the door, she looked around then saw me and quickly looked down shyly and went to the queue. I was surprised to see her, the last time I saw her was on that day when I scared her away. I didnt feel okay after what I did to her, I felt I needed to apologise for my aggressive behaviour. My order number was called out, I went to take the packet then went to Akhona. Me: hey. Akho: hi. Me: how are you? Akho: Im okay wena? Me: Im good. Can I talk to you on the side please. Akho: okay sure. We went outside. Me: jonga mani Akho I just want to apologise about how I acted ngalamini, I was beyond angry and I acted impulsively ayikho lanto ndandiyenza kuwe. Irongo lanto wayenza kum ne pillar yam sani and ungaphindi uzame nakancinci uphinda usenzele into eziphantsi kodwa ke I feel I need to say Im sorry to you. Akho: its okay I forgive you. Me: thanx joe. Akho: I see a ring on your left finger. Me: yah, Im married now. Akho: ku Zandile? Me: yes.. Akho: congrats... Tears filled her eyes, I was very surprised by this. Me: thanx, utheni ngoku? Akho: I feel used, you sleep with me then go and marry her. Me: Akhona we talked about this I dont know how many times, why ukhalela mna joe why not Zolani because naye walala naye but yena upholile kutheni nje unengxaki nam? Akho: you dont get it do you.. Me: get what? Akhona: I love you Lwazi, I never planned to love you it just happened. I know when we first met we were jogging partners and I had no feelings for you we were good buddies. But I feel used by you because when you had a fight with Zan you slept with me and made me feel appreciated and loved, thats when my feelings for you grew. You married now and youll never be mine I understand but my heart doesnt. Me: Akho ndicela uthethe nentliziyo yakho sani because nothing can ever happen between us. Akho: I know you are Zans husband now but Lwazi ndicela undenzele just one thing that will make my heart heal. Me: whats that? Akho: lets make a baby, I want to have your child. When he or she grows up Ill tell my child utatakhe wasweleka, I promise Ill never bother you ever again. Me: what??? Akhona: please do this one thing for me and Ill heal and move on with my life. I stood there wondering if she was okay psychologically and if she was not was I to blame for this psychological problem or did she always have it.
