Thabo knew when you had sex with women they thought they were wanted more than the others. It kind of felt good to him, to make women happy using sex. Thabo breathed heavily when he watched Cici’s head on his chest. He held her tighter and kissed her forehead. He quickly took his phone from the trousers he was wearing. His phone was always in hiding places, so that Cici didn’t catch a glimpse of it. He opened his WhatsApp and watched Cici sleeping.

I’m going 2 come early

Serious? I will be waiting for you.

“Thabo, are you already up?” Cici said.

Thabo hid his phone quickly. Cici was still sleeping, maybe she saw he was moving.

“Yes, I want to use the bathroom.” He said, calmly.

“OK, come to bed quickly, then we can have another round.” She said, opening her eyes and letting him go.

Thabo relieved himself, washed his hands and returned to bed. It was only after 2 a.m. Cici was facing the other side. He jumped in bed silently and faced the opposite side of his wife. He took his phone and carried on chatting to his secret woman. After an hour passed, he finally fell asleep, holding his phone.

The buzzing of the phone woke everyone up in the bedroom.

“Baby, answer your phone.” Cici said and stood up.

Thabo searched for his phone, it was Winnie. Winnie had been dating Thabo since last year. They met on social media. Winnie usually visited Thabo when he allowed it, she knew he was married but she didn’t care about his status because she wanted to make him leave his wife for her. She wanted to be the only one.

“Baby, how are you?” Winnie said.

“I am OK thanks, and you?” He answered.

Cici looked at him and then went out the bedroom door.

“I told you not to call me.” He hissed silently.

“You wouldn’t have replied to my messages.” She answered.

“I love you Winnie. I am really serious.” He said.

‘OK, when will you be back?” She asked.

“Next week.”

Thabo heard Cici closing the front door.

“We will talk later.” He said and slammed his phone on the bed.

“Who was it?” Cici asked concerned.

“It’s my boss. I have to leave the day after tomorrow.” He answered.

“But… You promised you will take me to the gynae,” she sighed.

“I can’t lose my job.” He stood up, wore his trousers and put his phone in his pocket.

“I hope you will come to me when you resign, then we can have our life here,” she said hugging him.

Thabo smiled when he looked at her face. She smiled and kissed him.

“Our baby and I need you back. Thabo please don’t hurt me.” She said seriously.

“I love you,” he said and embraced Cici.

Things were different when he met Cici. They fell in love when they were both still in high school. He was her first love and she was his third but he lied to her so he could make her happy. He also lied about being a virgin. Thabo had started having sex at the age of sixteen. He slept with women above his age. He wanted the fun but he really loved Cici. He just wanted to enjoy his life and taste all the fruits of the world.

Thabo got into the taxi that would take him to Joburg. He started chatting up the lady he was sitting next to.

“I am Thabo and you?” He said sincerely.

“I am Adishal,” she answered while typing on her phone.

“Nice name.” He said, looking at her. “Where are you going?”

“I am visiting my sister.” She smiled.

“I work in Joburg, but I go home for visits.” He said.

The taxi started to stroll slowly. Some people were talking to the driver concerning their passports.

“So, you are making money?” she said, sliding her phone into her bag.

“Not that much.” He said.

“I wish someone could show me Joburg.” She said and pulled her legs closer, which were close to Thabo’s.

“That’s easy peasy. I can do it.” He chuckled.

“You seem like a nice person.” She smiled.

“Only to a beautiful lady like you.’’ He stared at her.

His phone beeped and he checked it. It was Cici. He put it on silent and shoved it back into his pocket. He looked at Adishal, she was the woman he liked. He wanted to explore her.
