I hate acting mature and talking about everything in a relationship.
I was in this relationship with some lady who always asked about my exes. I tried to avoid it but I couldn't, so some day I thought let me just answer her. I told her everything about my past relationships, and she found some of the stuff funny.
One day, I also saw an opportunity for me too to ask her about her previous relationships. Wavele waphendula with no worries, “Virgin breaker yam sajola 3 years but washona. Washona gimuthukuthelele cause he cheated”. I felt sorry for her because she probably felt bad for that. Then she went on to say “Omunye yena into yethu yayi on and off but naye washona. Ngangimukwatele because wayenamanga”. Ngathi Yoh! okay babe, asidlule kule topic. But she kept going “Omunye umjita engangi flirta naye wangi blue ticka, I was so upset but ngezwa ngeMessage ethi ushonile while elele ebusuku” I was now worried and scared at the same time but didn't want to show her because what if that makes her angry at me lomuntu?
Abuye athi “But my longest relationship yaba yi4 years but naye washona loya mfana.” So I asked what happened, athi yena “I don’t really know kodwa naye wayengikwatisile”.
In my mind I was like, Haibo! Mos umuntu uzoshona la. Avele athi “Wonke umuntu oke wangibona ngiNaked, nguwe wedwa osaphilayo babe.” Yoh! From then I started waking up around 3am ngimfonele, “Sthandwa sam uRight?” Ngisho with a fake laughter, ngithi “Ngiyaxolisa if kukhona into engiyenzileyo ekuphathe kabi”. Our relationship became so perfect. Even when she asked me to cook air with spice, I would make a plan ukuthi ngiyawupheka umoya uvuthwe.
I remember ngihamba emvuleni kubanda ngiyomthengela iHalls eyi1 ngeR100 cause wathi ufuna yona kuphela, when I came back I was shaking and she asked if I was okay, I said “NgiRight sthandwa sam angikaze ngijabule kanje empilweni yam”. When she is around I go to the back of the house ngifike ngishaya isikhalo then ngibuyele endlini ngiyohleka nomuntu wam. Luckly she moved wayohlala eDurban because of work, she started to ignore me after a few months. I think she found someone else.
Though every day before I sleep, I pray that she never decides to think of me because she might tell me to walk from Pretoria to Durban. I'm actually telling you this story because this morning I received a text from a Zulu guy, “Bafo uMbali uthi you the only one, who is still alive oke wajola naye. How did you do it?😭”.
