He threw himself on the bed while she looked on.

“Come on, join me.” He pulled her. She fell on top of him and he rolled on top of her. He kissed her while undressing her. Both of them were hungry to feel each other. They had sex and lay side by side. Adishal’s head was on his chest.

“You are a charmer and you can do romance.” She chuckled.

“Yeah, I think you can go to your sister now. I wonder if she is worried.” He said, looking at his phone.

“Are you chasing me away?” She asked and got up.

“No, baby, I just don’t want to worry your sister.” He said.

Adishal got up and wore her clothes. Thabo stared at her, wondering what will happen next.

“I am leaving.” She took her bags and left.

“Adishal, please wait. I want your number.” He said loudly.

Adishal had left when he tried to follow her. He saw a taxi standing by the corner. Maybe she had jumped in the taxi. He walked back home hurt. How will he ever contact her again?

He saw Winnie enter when he was taking a bath. She followed him into the bathroom. Luckily Adishal left early or he would’ve been caught. He sighed and thanked his lucky stars.

“Why is the bed messy?” She asked.

“I thought we would meet tomorrow.” He said.

“You weren’t answering your phone.” She said and joined him in the bath.

He kissed her and held her. She whispered, she wanted to have sex. He shook his head.

“Baby, I can’t. I am so tired,” he grabbed the towel and went into his room.

Winne took a gown, wore it and followed him. She wasn’t pleased with his behaviour.

“Are you still with your wife?” she asked.

“Yes, I am.” He answered, as he sat on the bed.

“Baby, you promised me that you will leave her.” She sat close to him.

“I can’t!” He said and stood up.

Winnie couldn’t believe it, then she looked at him as he paced up and down.

“She is pregnant,” he said.

Winnie lay on the bed facing the side of window. Thabo could sense that she might leave him because she was hurt. He went and lay closer to her. He put his hand around her waist and finally they both fell asleep.

In the middle of the night Thabo woke up after dreaming about Adishal. He wished he had her number. Winnie faced him and started to kiss him. He felt electricity in his body. He went on top and had sex with her.

After he saw Winnie sleeping, he checked his phone and saw so many messages and calls from Cici and some from Theresa. He sncuk out of the bed holding his phone and quickly went to the bathroom. He dialled Cici’s number.

“I am sorry I left. I will call you early in the morning.” He whispered.

“I miss you Thabo.” She said sadly.

“Don’t worry, I will leave Joburg for you.” He dropped the call.

He opened his WhatsApp and looked for Theresa’s number.

“Baby I am in Joburg. I will come to you.”

“Why can’t I come there?”

“My brother is around.”

“So, you will come here?”

“Yes, I promise.”

“I love you.”

“Me too babe.”

He saw messages from Lisa and felt knots in his stomach.

Who is that woman I saw you with? I knew you are a cheater. It’s over.

He tried to dial her number but it was not going through. He tried again, it didn’t go through. Lisa blocked me, he thought. It’s over.
