This dinner is an inch perfect, from the place to decor and to the host. Mhmm he looks so handsome. Today he is not alone, there's this beauty that I saw him walking with. She looks coloured by her Zulu is on steroids. They are dressed up do nicely.

The lady of the house is in dark blue oblique one side off shoulder long sleeve dress, silver pumps pointy heels, silver clutch bag and diamond bracelet. Her hair is a 8 inch curly weave she topped it with silver rounded strip earrings. She's gorgeous and looks younger than me. The host is in a dark navy blue scotch suit, white shirt and silver/grey tie. He topped his attire with gold watch.

The Mc welcomes us. It's the 5th one and like I knew this guy scored top score because he got to invite the judge and the second is some guy who was graced by Barry Roux's presence.

"Are you still good?" Zweli asks holding my hand. We are being to our seats.

"Yeah I am good. And are you okay yourself Mr ?" I ask

"Yeah just that I am worried about who they going to choose to be next year's host. I don't think I am ready to host" he says.

"You'll never be ready. I guess it just comes with doing it and let it flow" I say. He opens the chair for me to sit

It's a long table. The decor is black with touch of white and gold. There are artificial and live plants around. It's just exquisite. Money is speaking for the host. Speaking of the devil, he comes to us and greets once again.

"I see you have made Dlomo and once in your life you didn't disappoint me." He says

"Talk you have already met my annoying friend Sizwe. Please introduce the lady of the house man and stop being a jerk" Zweli says to Sakhi and they both laugh. Men!!!!!

"Oh your worship this is Thembelihle my date for the night and Lili this is Talitha and Zwelakhe." Sakhi says.

I stand to give Lihle a hug. No one could miss the way Sakhi called Lihle with a different name with so much passion and yet she's just a date. Zweli and Sakhi continue with whatsoever that they are talking about. I ask for the loo and Lihle offers to take me there.

"Nice decor theme" I say to Lihle

"Thank you even though it was last minute things Sakhi's friend's girlfriend came through for him" she says. What is last minute in this event cause everything looks perfect

"Wow it' doesn't look like a last minute thing" I say

"Believe me it is. The event planner we hired mixed up dates with an event that is in Mpumalanga" she says

"Mhmmm then the friend's girlfriend must be good hey" I say

"So I heard. So you and Mr Dlomo" she says and I cut her before she can assume further

"Relax we nothing. I am his PA nothing more" I say

"The way he looks at you doesn't say 'nothing more' but we not there. So you mean to tell me no kiss or silly plays in between your duties?" She asks and I laughs. Here comes another Me and Thuli

"No" I answer. She laughs

"You'll fool the ones on preschool not me." She says and I laugh. I get in the toilet and do my thing. I fix myself, rinse my hands and head out

"So what's up with you and Sakhi" I ask

"They can also have him girl. Nothing is up I am just his date and play along to the arrange marriage shit" she says

"Wait what do you mean arrange marriage?" I ask and she giggles

"According to the elders we are meant to be together. So they wanted us to get married but we are not in love with each other. The escape was to fool the rents that we trying to date then we'll see marriage" she says. Ehh too deep I didn't even realise that we reached our table
