SURPRISE :) Chapter 28 Mabethu, Mxos right-hand man has been following the guys from a distance in D1 since they alighted the taxi. Not one of them seems to be even worried they might be followed. They turn a corner, he increases his pace, and he also turns, and then, they are nowhere to be seen. Damn, they must have gone into 1 of the houses in this street, he thinks. But which 1? Hell just patiently wait at the corner for them. Theyre bound to come out sooner or later. .. .. Siya, Jabu, Kwikstar and VD are already in Sihles room, Siya is desperate for a smoke. This is my girlfriends place, no smoking inside wena hey Jabu snaps at him. Ja mara a ke gane a se smoking zone, nna kera taba ya dijo, go jewang kamo? VD asks, as he opens the fridge and looks in. Hmmm..no wonder o le paparig so, a gona dijo mos kamo chomma! Nare o tsamaya o bula difridge tsa batho o sa botsiwa? Jabu looks at him, getting irritated. Bona neh, gao Zuma, tshwantse re founele National guard re kgopele permission go bula fridge. Ke tlha ko ntweng, mala a gwaile. Ere ke te tseele apolo e ge, eish, cheapskate, VD dismisses him by rolling his eyes, as he flops down on a corner couch. Kwikstar meanwhile has been standing uncomfortably near the door, quiet as ever. Jabu is fiddling with his phone looking for the video clip he took days earlier of Thando and her boyfriend. Tjerr, it seems like such a long time ago, so many things have happened since then. Kwik, jo, nna mo mpetong or tseya stulo daar, keng kgante mfowethu? VD asks with a mouthful of apple. Kwikstar mumbles hes just fine standing by the door. The door flies open, and a woman comes in. Its Sihle. Tjoo ampor ke screame. And then mo? Ke bomang ba Jabu? she asks, suspiciously throwing glances at Kwikstar and Siya. Babe, o tlile ka pele yong. Wirile pila mara, be ke majita na ba nkhapile ko lata phone ko Eertserust. Dilo di tlhakatlhakane, ke tlao botsa later. You need to go to your uncles as soon as possible VD stands up, extending a hand, Nna ke Van Damme, mara o ka mpitsa VD. O ke Kwikstar, o didimetse nkare mongolo nyana sometimes, ska worra, en den o ke Siya. Siya yena, ke Siya, ke tla reng ka yena mara? Anywhu, wena re tlare o mang? This is my girlfriend I was telling you about guys, her name is Sihle, and please le sa tella tu. Iyooo, tella? Look whos talking. VD replies sarcastically. Guys shhh please, kgopela go bolela le medi yaka without you interrupting? Babe, ke suspecta majita ale a yitse o nna kae, obviously ba itse nka seye gae, so before they figure it out, I think its better you disappear as in right now. Ke batlo tlhakantsha taba e nngwe so, and ake nyake go worra ka wena in the meantime I guess you may be too late. When I got off the taxi just now, I passed a suspicious guy standing at the corner. Waitse ge motho a sa nne mo wa bonagala. Wa tshosa, matlho a gae a ... O apere bjang? Eish I think jean e dark blue le skipper se green, sa Nike, I think Eiiiiish, Mabethu. Damn, he followed us here. Why le sa qava bafowethu go nale mosela? he angrily asks the others? Why re sa qava? Heh bathong, wena why o sa qava le wena yourself. Mabethu ke mang? VD asks, Mxos right hand man. Remember the 2 goons in the kitchen? And I think by now o founetse boss ya gae. Gents, remo masepeng. No, point of correction. Wena(making a circle in the air with his finger) alone o masepeng. Why o re tsentsha? Rona re involved only as far as helping you getting the phone back, whatever happens next, is your baby! Of hoe chomma? VD looks at Siya. Eish nna akitse. Mxm, you never know. Bonang, nna ke nyaka zaka yaka e oe promisitseng, so far ake bone Mandela a fofa nyana mo! You keep making promises, tse di snang direction shem. Dont make me go out there and scream like a girl to whatever his name is, coz ke tlaya ko mmotsa where you hiding Would you shut up for just 1 minute VD? Youre confusing me. Im trying to think here You better think fast, coz my mouth is already itching Kokoooo...Sihle, o boile ngwanaka? MmaStene knocks on the door. Maphodisa a shiya ngwanaka, ba batla go bolela le wena! All 4 stand still as statues, and look at each other, fear written across their faces. .. .. When he left his house, Mxo had gone straight to the police station and had asked to speak to Inspector Marumo. He was busy with some paperwork, so he had had to wait. When he came out, he looked around and saw Mxo waiting by his combi, and irritated, hed come marching over and said through clenched teeth, Mfanaka, dont you ever come looking for me at work wena, whats wrong with you? Ever heard of a cellphone? Why didnt you use it to contact me? Because I wasnt thinking straight. Theres a new development. I need you and your boys as in right now, the bird has flown the coop, but I think I know where it is and he continues and raps down what had happened earlier at his house. The bird has flown the coop, who talks like that? Ai, alright, but before I help you, how much is it in for me, and my boys? Mxo gets quiet for a few seconds, closes his eyes, and says at last, My father had a secret bank account when he was still alive. Not even my mother knew about it. He told me a few days about it before he passed away. He had made me a beneficiary in case he met an untimely death. hes quiet again, then theres R750 000 in it, Ill give you guys R250 000, if you catch this guy for me, and only IF you let me deal with him. You know, inspector Marumo tells him, Your father and I go waaaay back, I had dealings with him also, but I must say, he was a better businessman than you are. R300 000, I keep the R50 000 secret from my men, and its a deal. Mxo gets quiet again, puts his hands in his pockets, looks the cop straight in the eyes, Fine, as long as I get to have that boy, alive. I want him all to myself. This obsession with this guy must come to an end, youre going to die young my boy, anyway, its your money, you use it as you see fit. Now, come back after 30 minutes, whilst I organise the boys. Park down there at the garage, as soon as you see my convoy coming up, Ill signal you and you follow us. I have a strong suspicion I know where he might be, at his girlfriends house. They part ways and Mxo decides to call Mabethu in the meantime hes waiting. Bosso? O ba kreile? Ke bone medi ya teng e tsena kamo jarteng, I recognized her from the picture you showed us from the guys phone. She was in a hurry. Somethings about to give boss, you better hurry! Sho, ke daar nou so. Keep an eye, and nobody leaves that yard, Heita boss! Mabethu hangs up. Shit, he was alone, and outnumbered, what if they turned the tables and attacked him? Hell have to fight to the death for Mxo, he owed him that much after all he has done for him in the past. He continues waiting. The street is ominously quiet, just few kids playing soccer in the street. .. .. In Sihles room, everybody is still standing still, Jabu looks across VD and puts his finger on his mouth signalling him to shut up, and he whispers to Sihle, Tell her youre taking a bath, and that youll be right out, otherwise they going to barge in Ke..ke sa tlhapa mama, ba botse ba eme nyana. Ke maponapona! VD bursts out laughing, the other guys shoot angry glances at him, and he puts his hand over his mouth. Sorry, he whispers, couldnt help myself he quipps in. Shhhh, Jabu is now getting tired of this guy, he wishes the cops would come in and take him away and lock him up, see how he does in jail for 1 day, mxm!! Okay, mara ira ka pele, bare a ba tsamaye shinke ba bolele le wena! MmaStene yells from behind the door. .. .. Silence again, Sihle quickly begins taking off her clothes, tells the guys to close their eyes and puts on her gown making as if she had indeed been busy bathing. She goes out, quickly closing the door behind her, and finds about 12 policemen in the yard. Theyre all standing there, guns drawn, R5s , pistols you name it. It looks like theyve come in for a drug-bust. Outside the yard, she can see 5 police vans and a green combi parked at the gate. WTF???? She is now shaking so badly, but she regains her composure and says to the one talking to mmaStene Can I help you gentlemen? Inspector Marumo comes nearer, he has papers in his hands, Yes maam you can, he introduces himself, and says, We are looking for a Jabu Mdlalose, is he here? No. I havent seen him in a few days and I dont know where he is. What is this all about? Maam, are you aware that harbouring a criminal is against the law? You could go to jail for a long time. Do you mind if we search the place? Yes I do mind, I just told you I dont know where he is. You cannot just come barging in like this,without a warrant... she begins, Mara Sihle ngwanaka, botsa maphodisa a batho nnete. Ke bone Jabu a tsena ka gate le mathaka a mang a 3, just before wena o fitlha. Neke lebelletse dr Phil, ka utlwa gate e bulega, so ka tlhodimela ka lefestere. Ke ba bone, ba tsene ka mo rumung ya gao! Shit, no, double shit!!!! Now what???? .. .. Chapter 29 tonight AFTER 22:00 bangane, have a wonderful, productive day ;);):)
