At our local mall I proceeded to buy healthy products for everyone and the ladies couldn’t have been happier. As much as they were party freaks, they were health conscious. That fact made me like them more. I mean, I did need friends especially who took care of themselves. I was aware of how contagious that lifestyle was.

Then we headed home and when we arrived we found five men laughing and chilling at the pool area with a couple of beers and some music.

Well, this is what I like to see: my man at home having a good time with a few guys, I thought. Chris ran to me, assisted me with the heavy plastic bags that I was carrying, and gave me a kiss on the forehead. His nice side had evidently come out to play.

The men were having good fun and Chris looked as if he was having just as much fun. Well, it seemed like someone had made friends, this was great! Maybe this was how the universe had planned to get through to this man, I thought, but deep down I knew nothing could possibly change him.

I had a bar in my house and I just couldn’t resist making cocktails for everyone. The guys seemed to be sorted with their beer, but hey, cocktails were a more fun thing to do, and I thought a few shots wouldn’t hurt anyone. I mean, it was a Saturday after all, any excuse to drink, really.

The ladies assisted me in preparing my favorite BBQ ribs and baked fries while we all gradually got to know each other. Linda and I remained in my lavish kitchen, where you could see the sitting room as well as the swimming pool area, to continue with the lunch preparation, while the ladies got up to no good with the fruits Chris had rejected earlier, and the liquor.

Sphe had called me and asked me to direct him to my place. I didn’t hesitate to do so, I was excited…so excited that Chris wasn’t too happy about it, as he rushed to the kitchen and snatched my phone away from me to see who it was that made me so thrilled over the phone. When he saw that it was an unsaved number, I informed him quickly that it was an old varsity friend. My heart began to race a little but he left to go back to the guys. The entire house stared, which drove him to reactivating his ‘nice guy’ tendency and making an effort to take everyone’s minds off his reaction, and it worked somewhat as everyone carried on with what they were doing – drinking.

When Sphe arrived, everyone was excited to see him. The guys were familiar with him from college and people just couldn’t resist Sphe because of his natural charm

Sphe brought champagne and flowers for me, which was a sweet gesture. I was surprised he remembered how much I loved pink flowers, and he bought my favorite champagne. No doubt he had taste and I was thrilled. I would have loved to give him a decent hug to thank him appropriately but I felt Chris’s rage and stare from across the room.

I went on to introduce Chris to Sphe and Sphe was shocked at the fact that I was actually in a relationship. He also seemed slightly disappointed but he was okay. I offered Sphe something to drink to get through the awkward moment and he was more than pleased to try out the fruity cocktail the ladies had made.

Then I poured shots for everyone and his facial expression was just hilarious when he had the shots.

Tell us: Why do you think Sphe was so shocked to find that Lebo was in a relationship?
