(It is four weeks later. Sethu and Nhlanhla are in town. It is a sunny Saturday and they are enjoying themselves in the park.)
Nhlanhla: (Smiling) You know what, my love?
Sethu: What?
Nhlanhla: You’re my world, you’re my sea, you’re my everything! You’re the tree that provides me with oxygen, gosh! Without you I can’t imagine life.
Sethu: Well, that’s my task to do, to take care of you and make sure that you’re happy at all times.
Nhlanhla: And I appreciate that, my love.
Sethu: Can I recite you a poem?
Nhlanhla: Wait first, I must have a tissue (they both laugh). OK, go on baby.
Sethu: OK, it’s just a sweet and short poem. This is how it goes…
When I think of you,
I think of your heart
I wish I can hold your heart
Feel that love from your heart
Feel those beats of your love
Allow me to hold your heart
I’ll hold it like an egg
Make sure it never slips from my hands
I’ll never lose it
I’m not asking for your life
But all I’m asking for is your heart
Give me your heart
And I’ll take care of it
Nhlanhla: (Blushing) Baby… You have my heart baby. I’m giving you my heart, take it all.
Sethu: Thank you so much, babe.
Nhlanhla: I want to play.
Sethu: Play what?
Nhlanhla: Let’s go and play with those who are playing soccer there.
Sethu: Can you play soccer?
Nhlanhla: I’m Portia Modise when it comes to soccer!
Sethu: OK, show me then, let’s go.
(They both goes to play soccer. After that, they come back to their home.)
Nhlanhla: Thanks for the day, baby. I appreciate it. It’s been too long without going to town.
Sethu: It’s my pleasure, baby. Now, go and sleep, I’m sure you’re tired, you have been ‘Portia-ing’ all over the soccer field. (They both laugh.)
Nhlanhla: I told you, baby, that I’m good at soccer.
Sethu: Well I saw you today. You showed me flames hey!
Nhlanhla: Before we separate, can I sing you a song baby? It’s called ‘To love you more’ by Celine Dion.
Sethu: OK, I’m all ears.
Nhlanhla: Here goes…
Take me back into the arms I love
Need me like you did before
Touch me once again
And remember when
There was no one that you wanted more
Don’t go, you know you’ll break my heart
She won’t love you like I will
I’m the one who’ll stay
When she walks away
And you know I’ll be standing here still
I’ll be waiting for you
Here inside my heart
I’m the one who wants to love you more
You will see I can give you
Everything you need
Let me be the one to love you more
See me as if you never knew
Hold me so you can’t let go
Just believe in me
I will make you see
All the things that your heart needs to know
I’ll be waiting for you
Here inside my heart
I’m the one who wants to love you more
You will see I can give you
Everything you need
Let me be the one to love you more
Some way all the love that we had can be saved
Whatever it takes we’ll find a way
Believe me
I will make you see
All the things that your heart needs to know
I’ll be waiting for you
Here inside my heart
I’m the one who wants to love you more
Can’t you see I can give you
Everything you need
Let me be the one to love you more
Sethu: Wow! Baby, I’m literally shedding tears. Thank you so much, I’ll sleep happy tonight. Go, it’s late.
Nhlanhla: Good night baby, dream about me, us and everything that relates to us.
Sethu: That I will do.
(Nhlanhla leaves and Sethu goes to his home too.)
