Snethemba His Queen

FOUR

TWO DAYS LATER--

Nkosiyabo's gran had actually been getting a bit better. She was such a loving and humble soul, Sne could spend hours talking to her.

Sne arrived at work and went straight to Nkosiyabo's grandmother's room. "Sawubona Gogo"(hello granny) she greets as she walks in   "yebo mntanami"(yes my child) she replies. "Uzizwa unjani namhlanje Gogo?"(how do you feel today  granny) Sne asks as she starts checking her blood pressure. "Ayi ngizizwa nginconyana kodwa kusabuhlungu nje(I feel better but it  still feels painful)  she says softly. "Okay, kuzomele ngikuthathele amaphilisi enhlungu. Ubusudlile(I will have to take pain pills. Have you eaten)?" Sne says, checking everything else that needed to be checked. "Cha ngane yami, ngisaphuze itiye nje kuphela. Inhliziyo yami imnyama"( no my child, I have only drank tea. I don't feel like eating) she replies. "Haybo Gogo, kuzofanele udle njisho into eyodwa ke ukuze uzophuza amaphilisi enhlungu nawe nyongo"(you will have to eat atleast one thing so that you will drink pain pills and bile pills) Sne replies. "Ayi kulungile ke ngane yami, ngizozama ukudla"(it's okay, my child I will try to eat)

It was now lunch break and Nkosiyabo would be here in any minute to fetch her. She was about to leave when Asemahle walked into the room. "Chommie!" She said in her usual loud voice. "Hey chomz" Snethemba greets back. "Ngathi uyahamba nje? Aren't we going out together for lunch?" She asks when she sees her friend carrying her lunch bags and purse. "oh sorry friend my man is coming" Snethemba replies. "Haybo! Konje 'your man'" Asemahle says, clapping her hands together after. "I can't believe you are choosing a man over me!" She says dramatically, putting her hand to her chest. Snethemba rolls her eyes "bathong Ase, idrama engaka, you also have a man" Asemahle laughs lightly at how serious Snethemba is looking.  "Ngidlala chommie but dont get pregnant tuu, I'm too sexy to be an aunt" Asemahle says. Snethemba laughs at her friends silliness. Her phone buzzed- it was a message from Nkosiyabo, telling her that he was outside. "Chomz im leaving now, I'm going to my man" Snethemba says. "Yes wena girl!" Asemahle says before bursting into laughter.

Nkosiyabo was leaning on his white Mercedes Benz sprinter, waiting for hi future wife. She finally came out, dressed in her pink scrubs and white shoes were placed on her feet. On her right hand she held her lunch bag and purse. "Sthandwa sami" he says as she walks closer to him. "Hey baby" she says, hugging him. "How are you?" He asks, opening the door for her. "I'm good my love" Sne says, stepping into the car. "How are you holding up?" Nkosiyabo finally starts the car. "I'm better now, its just that she has a special place in my heart, so when I thought of losing her I just felt so emotional"he says reving out of the car park. "Oh it's okay, I totally understand"

The clock strikes 5pm- it's knock-off time. Snethemba grabs her bags and heads off to the taxi rank as she knew that they were bound to be full by this time.

She walks straight to her room and throws herself onto the bed with Asemahle on dial. "Ntombazane what's wrong I'm with my manss" she says after the second ring. "Oh  ncese chomz I just wanted to check on you since I just left you nje and I didn't see you after lunch break" Sne says. "Oh I'm good I'm just with my man and we going to Cape Town!" Asemahle says excitedly. "Haybo chommie! Tell me more!"
