A few minutes later…
Precious is accompanying Tebalo to the car with Tebalo’s arm laying on her shoulders covering her neck.
Precious: What did you and Ma talk about?
Tebalo: I just thought I should remind her of how much I love her daughter. (Kissing Precious on the forehead)
Precious: Did it go well?
Tebalo: Better than I expected actually.
Precious: Hmm… Interesting
Tebalo: Your mother doesn’t hate me.
They both laughed.
Precious: I know! She actually likes you. Her being the way she is proves that.
Tebalo: (Chuckles) So I’ve noticed.
They both laughed.
Precious: I’ll see you tomorrow. (Kissing Tebalo) Don’t be late!
Tebalo: I’m more worried about you being late!
Precious: Hey! (Pushing Tebalo with her elbow).
Tebalo: Do you blame me?
They both laughed.
Precious: Silly! Good night!
Tebalo: (Opening the car’s door) Goodnight.
Precious: Dream about me!
Tebalo: With all pleasure.
Tebalo drove away and Precious went back in the house.
Maria: I was about to come and drag you into the house. You have to wake up early tomorrow!
Precious: Sorry Ma!
Maria: Come, let’s pray. I want to go sleep.
Precious joined Maria and Carol in prayer.
