Zanele
After my call with dad,i asked Siya to give Nosipho a free voucher for nails,the voucher was active only on friday.She suprisingly fell for it,so i am now on my way to try and make it seem coinsidentally that we are there at the same time again.The troubles i go through just to make my ungrateful father happy.I get to the place and i went to the receptionist to pay for Her nails and also mine.I went to the salon part of the spa and waited for her to pitch up,as i am waiting my phone rings and its my dad.
Me:Baba
Him:I hope there's progress.
Mxm he doesnt even greet me and ask me how i am.
Me:Yes dad,i am working on it.
Him:You better.
I rolled my eyes.
[He hanged up]

Hope
2 days ago when i was here i recieved a free nail voucher and i took it,i wont say no to free nails,so i am back here again for my peddies,i dont like doing my hand nails so i will just do peddies.I got out of the car and went inside.I am wearing some colourful short jumpsuit and sandless since its hot.I get inside and i immidiately recognise the lady i bumped into the other day,the one who was staring at me weirdly.Oh sharks,the only available sit was next to her.Eish
Me:Hi
Her:Hey[she smiled]
I sat there awkwardly,waiting for the next available nail tech.
Her:Did you also receive the voucher?
Me:Yes,you?
Her: yes,they are feeling generous this season i see.
[We both laugh]
Her:I am sorry if i gave you weird vibes the other day,i was not being myself
Me:No problem.
Her:My name is Zanele [she took out her hand for a hand shake]
Me:I am Hope.
Her:Nice to meet you Hope.You come here often?
Me:Yes,but i normal go for massages
Her:Oh okay.
Me:yeah[i turn to the magazine i was reading]
Before i knew it there was an available nail tech and i was called for my pedies.
Her:Oh you gonna do some peddies?
Me:Yes,i dont like doing my finger nails.i just white polish them.
Her:Oh ohkay.
I went to sit on the chair i was called at and she was also called shortly after, her nail tech's station was next to mine.We continue to talk about anything under the sun.When i was done with peddies,she asked for my numbers since she liked my vibe and i didnt mind giving her since i also have no friends in town and maybe she could be my friend plus we both vibe to each other's energy .After i gave her the numbers, i left.

Busi
My sister and her family are coming back today from their mini family vacation.It has been amazing spending time with Banzi in the house i dont want to lie,Banzii has been amazing to me and has been treating me like a queen.We have been taking things slow,i dont want to go from one man to another without any self introspection in between,plus i need to heal before i get into another relationship.I am busy preparing lunch when Banzi walked in.
Him:Hey,sorry i missed breakfast,there was business i had to attend.
[I smiled]
Me:No problem,Noma and family are on the way.
Banzi:Yeah,i just talked to Zulu,they could be here any minute now.Why are you cooking?
Me:I just miss cooking,what? you dont trust my cooking,?
Banzi:You know how much i liked your cooking when we were young.
