It was one o'clock in the afternoon when Sihle and Gavin budged into my bedroom to check if we were still alive. Menzi and I slept at around four in the morning that day so we were extremely tired. Sihle wanted to talk to me about Jake and Gavin just wanted to listen. I woke up and went to take a shower after telling them both that I'd join them downstairs for a catch up session.
When I was done I woke Menzi up because I had to return him home before his mother called and bit my head off. He woke up and went to go take a shower whilst I dressed up. I remember being so tired that day that I didn't want to do anything especially given the fact that I had to report to 3Complex the next day.
I went downstairs to join the rest of the crew. I found KG, Nigel, Zama, Morithi, Malcolm and Sihle. The others were chilling outside enjoying the beautiful weather that was that Sunday. I asked them how their night was. Everyone responded positively besides KG who got up and went to the kitchen. I followed him and found him drinking water. He was obviously not happy about something and I thought that it had Gavin written all over it. "Are you okay?" I asked. He told me that should be the least of my worries since I decided to reconnect with Menzi. "You can't be serious right now KG!" I said. I then went on to tell him that I'm not going to stop living my life because he developed a sudden unexplainable interest in me. KG was trying very hard to make my stay in the house completely uncomfortable and it was really starting to get to me. "As a matter of fact, Menzi is moving in!" I said to him out of anger. I think I said that to test his reaction but unfortunately for me Menzi was standing by the kitchen door and he heard me say that.
"I am?" Menzi asked. "Yes Menzi… you are" I replied and KG walked out of the kitchen. It was at that point that I realized that KG was being difficult for some other reasons. Maybe he wasn't happy with my return to the house or he was secretly hoping that I'd remain "faithful" to him whilst he played his games with Lerato. "Did you have to lie about me moving in?" Menzi asked. "I wasn't lying, I was going to ask you" I replied. "So what the hell are you waiting for? Ask me!" he said with excitement. Truth is I wasn't going to ask him at all. I guess I put myself on the spot with that one and before I could even ask him, he said yes.
He then jumped onto me and we started kissing before Lincoln entered the kitchen. "Guys, I believe we all have rooms" he said as he cleared his throat. People in that house had issues and it seemed like they all had issues with me. I was starving, so I sent Menzi to the room to collect my car keys and my wallet because I wasn't going to stay in that house until people had gotten enough time to get over themselves. Menzi left the kitchen and I was left with Lincoln. "Why are you doing this?" he asked. "Not you now! I'm really not in the mood for all of this" I replied. He called me a selfish bitch who didn't consider anyone else's feelings but my own. I didn't respond to anything that he said. I calmly walked out of the kitchen and waited for Menzi to come downstairs with the car keys.
Whilst I was in the car ready to drive off, I decided to take my work stuff and a few clothes because I was so fed up. I didn't want to return to the commune that day so I called to make reservations at a hotel in Sandton. "Where are you going Earl?" asked Sihle. I didn't say much to him except that I'd see him at work the next day. I had even forgotten that there was something he wanted to talk to me about. Menzi was also a bit confused so he asked me the same question. "I am not sleeping here tonight, some people are really hung-over!" I said as I drove off.
