TSHIMOLOGO

***I’m sitting here looking at this man and asking myself what the hell am i doing….what has gotten to me...who the hell do I think I am….I mean yes I do prophesy people here and there but that’s where it ends bathong, not this….As for this man, I have tried pouring water on his face thinking he will wake up but dololo...nothing….all I know is he’s still alive…. Well i took off his baggy dirty and stinking clothes   and what I saw has left me traumatized to the core, the guy’s d#ck was standing firm in fact its still standing firm...mmmh yep you heard me right...I know I shouldn’t be saying this but he’s alive if you know what I mean and its huge….these are the kind of guys that would rip your nana apart during sex im tell you….Its an anaconda that thing and I have never seen it before, let me just say I have never dated anyone with that kind of anaconda before….Im still traumatized...like who walks around with that kind of heavy machine bathong….like isn’t it heavy...umthwalo wakhe awumsindi yini like MaZulu would say...yho ( clap once)…yho hai Tshimo stop talking about another child’s private parts mahn….

Anyway im now cleaning his body and the water im using to clean him e kare seretse now ( clay)….i took the dirty water outside and went to dispose of it and poured another clean warm one and went back to him and I continued to wash his body again...Shem yena he’s not dark as in like dark he was just dirty bathong...his color  looks nice on him and the tattoos compliment his skin color nicely….ok Tshimo concentrate….concentrate mogirl….yho even this face mask I’m wearing is not helping, kganthe when last did this guy bath bathong….anyway I know once he’s thoroughly clean he’ll smell better….

Phweew Im now done with the front so I turn him so he lays on his front and the huge tattoo of a tiger covering his whole back catches my eye...ok the tattoos on his arms and neck didn’t shock me but this one...nope….even its eyes looks real like its looking into your soul….ok I’m exaggerating but no man…. Anyway its nice shem but creepy at the same time….Ok I’m done now so I’m putting lotion on his body and his d#ck is getting harder and harder and harder...yho this is not on bathong, I know another woman doing this would like seeing all this but yho hae not me….wait... what if he’s pretending to be passed out….what if….out of the blue his hand grips mine tight and he opens his eyes and looks at me with a scary frown on his face…...the scream that comes out of my mouth people…..i’m screaming trying to get out of his hold with my heart ready to stop pumping blood when his grip loosens and he passes out again***

After Heath told him the kind of business this Kenny guy is into he knew he needs to save Lolly again from harms way like he did years back….His phone rings and its Ruu...he frowns but answers anyway***

***Stevens and Alphalette’s mother decided to book herself into a hotel to calm down...she didnt go to Alphalette’s house cause she doesnt want him involved in this cause she knows her son and how he can get when it comes to her….she’s heart broken by her fight with Stevens and the hurtful words he said about Alphalette and his son….She blames her husband for turning Stevens against Alphalette, she hates to admit it but she’s aware that her husband has never accepted Alphalette since they started dating….he has always been reserved towards him and never really tried to bond or create some sort of relationship with him...The truth is he has never treated him like a son and it breaks her heart everyday that her son has been going through all this and she’s still with the same man even after so many years…..Alphalette stayed with his uncle  before he got married cause the atmosphere in their house was just too much for a child to bear so she decided to let him stay with his uncle and the uncle took good care of him until she suggested that he goes and stays at a boarding school when the uncle got married and she could see the woman didn’t like Alphalette…...

The uncle never changed towards Alpha and he’s a been a father figure since even today and she’s grateful for that…..she’s hurt that things have escalated to this between the brothers….She has tried to bring them closer but only Alpha was the one willing but as for Stevens ( she shook her head as more tears ran down her cheeks)….why did she stay with that man….she blames him cause he also makes distasteful remarks about Alphalette every now and then and who knows the kind of poison he fill their son with when its just the two of them cause no child can say all those despicable things without his mind being poisoned at a young age….  Her phone rings and its her husband and she dropped the call and clicks her tongue…..then it rings again and its a number she doesn’t know and something tells her to answer it...she wipes her tears off and takes a deep breath and answers it***

TAREK MTHEMBU

***I have been trying to get hold of Shalate and I cant….she blocked me everywhere…..i dont know if she’s ok wherever she is or not…. I cant even call her sisters cause I know by now they hate me more than they already did…..Stress is killing me and ngapha Samke is busy reminding me every f#ck#n seconds about doing right by her….she told her family and those people showed up at my parents house and you guessed it right, mama welcomed them and assured them and promised them sh!t ( sigh)…..my plan has failed and I don’t know what to do anymore….The only thing I’m grateful for is the fact that Shalate hasn’t served me with divorce papers, maybe she just needs to calm down and realize that we can actually make this work, that I love her so much and she loves me as much….yeah she’ll come around but eish I didn’t wanna pay lobola for Samke without her permission or her presence there….

I wanted everyone to see a united front between me and her…..to see her supporting me as her husband...i cant imagine life without her...i need to fight for her with everything I got….I know people will say but I have Samkelo, well she’s a means to an end….what I need from her are babies nje that’s all….yes she’s beautiful and sexy and she comes from a wealthy polygamous family which is a bonus but my heart beats for one woman and one woman only and that’s Shalate while Samkelo is a woman that’s gonna make me a father and that’s a reason I wanna marry her cause she knows the concept of a polygamous marriage, she grew up in one and I know she wont cause problems for me and Shalate...she’ll know her place and her purpose in this marriage...His phone rang and it’s his mother, he sighed before answering***
Tar: Ma
Khethi: baba ka boy how are you
Tar: good and you
Khethi: im ok….when did you last hear from your father my boy
Tar: ummm at the meeting ma...why
***she sighed***
Tar: when last did you see him ma
Khethi: aagr maybe he forgot to tell me he’s going on one of his business trips
***she chuckled nervously***
Tar: really ma….has he done that before
Khethi: let me call him again maybe he’s in a meeting...say hi to Samke for me
*** she ended the call and Tarek looked at his phone with a frown then he dialed his father’s numbers and they rang until he answered***
Mazwakhe: Dumakude
***ok its been a while since he called him by that name “he thought”***
Tar: baba how are you
Mazwakhe: good
***then Tarek cleared his throat***
Tar: ummm uma says she hasnt heard from you in a while now….is everything ok between you
Mazwakhe: concentrate on your marriage...or whats left of it and leave mine alone boy
***he frowned then he swallowed hard***
Tar: baba ma is worried
Mazwakhe: and Shalate is broken
Tar: wow...so you’re worried about someone who’s nothing to you at the expense of your own wife...my mother
Mazwakhe: I don’t know what you know about marriage and uniting two families boy but let me school you….when you decided to married that girl you united two families meaning she became a daughter in our family, her family trusted us with her that we will take care of her and treat her well…. as for your mother she knows her shenanigans and whats to come so if you still want to look at her the same way then mind your own business….I cant believe how much of a mama’s boy you are….such disappointment nxa
***then he dropped the call leaving Tarek more confused***
Tar: what the hell is going on
