Busted! - Chapter 13.1: Breathe Again

After work, Lincoln and I headed home together and because we were so tired, we decided to sit on the couch and cuddle whilst watching TV. It felt so surreal but I was still bothered by the conversation we had earlier that day.

I had a hectic day. KG called me and we talked about everything that had happened. He apologized for his behaviour and reassured me that he will support me with whatever it is that I chose to do. KG really did love me and I didn’t think it was that serious. Truth is I never was in love with him, I just saw him as a friend… with benefits I guess. I knew though that I cared about him a lot and that he needed me.

He then told me that his father would be buried on that same weekend. I told him that I’d go see him before the funeral just to see if there’s anything I could help with. He was so grateful. He asked me to alert the other housemates about the funeral since he couldn’t get hold of all of them.

Sihle and Malcolm were returning to the house later that night. Morithi on the other hand wasn’t taking my calls and he’s the one person I really felt I needed to talk to. I just accepted that he was still angry and that when he comes back to his senses he would call me back. I spoke to Thobile as well and the only thing she could do was cry over the phone and it had me worried because she couldn’t afford to be stressed especially because she was pregnant. She also hadn’t heard from Morithi and it was just too much for her to handle. Nigel and Zama broke up for obvious reasons. Nigel called asking for permission to move back to the house the following day. I told him that I never kicked him out and that he was welcome whenever he was ready. So it was evident that the house would move from having just two people to at least five. Not even half of what we were.

Later on that night Sihle arrived with Malcolm and we went to welcome them. Malcolm gave me a long hug and whispered words of encouragement in my ear. Lincoln got a bit jealous and split us up. We just laughed at him. People were starting to mark their territories. We chilled and watched TV before deciding to play Monopoly. We had a lot of fun. It was good to see that Sihle and Malcolm were brought closer by the drama that had happened.
