Busted! - Chapter 7.1: Confrontation

As soon as I left Menzi's place, the aim was to go to Gavin's place but I didn't because I felt that I wanted to face the issue and get it over and done with. I drove to the Gigolo's Castle and everyone was there except for Sihle. Malcolm asked me where Sihle was and I told him he was at work. I had promised to drop Sihle something to eat but since I was home, Malcolm decided to be the Good Samaritan and did just that for me.

I sat downstairs with everyone else who was watching TV at the time. Nobody knew about the drama that had happened earlier except KG, Thobile and I. Thobile wasn't impressed with me, she got up and went to the kitchen and once she was there she called me. I went to speak to her. "Why did you do what you did?" she asked. I actually froze because I didn't know what the reason for my actions was. "I'm not angry at you or anything, you know very well that KG is with Lerato yet you can sleep with him under the same roof! If you don't tell Lerato what happened, I promise you I will!" she said. Her telling Lerato would just complicate things for everyone in the house. "I'll tell her when the time is right, I do reassure you that this was definitely the first and the last time something like this happened" I said. She rolled her eyes and reiterated the fact that if I don't tell Lerato, she will do it. Thobile felt that KG mistreated Lerato and she was tired of it, the situation between KG and I drove her even crazier.

Lerato then walked in to the kitchen looking very chirpy. She clearly wasn't aware of the fact that there was some sort of tension in the kitchen between Thobile and I, and that it had a lot to do with her. I was relieved that she came when she did because that meant I could dodge the conversation Thobile and I were having. "Anyone for a cup of coffee?" Lerato asked. "I'd like a cup!" I said with a smile, obviously a fake one at that. "Yeah! Sure! Whatever!" said Thobile. She was really angry and she couldn't contain it.

KG then walked into the kitchen, obviously because he thought that Thobile and I were probably updating Lerato on what had happened so he came to make sure that didn't happen. "Thobile, you do know that coffee is not good for pregnancy right?" he said as he laughed. I think he was trying to break the ice but I guess it was still too cold for that to happen. Thobile walked out of the kitchen immediately and I followed her. I went straight up to my room to get some rest. That day was too hectic for me to handle and the best thing I could do was to just sleep on it.
