University was never easy, I passed with distinctions but well due to corona we graduated virtually. 

In December 2019, I was lying relaxing in my yard when he came with my cousin unexpectedly. Mind you, I haven’t seen both of them in like forever. They were dashing and driving a car, man how did they manage to get such a nice car while not working? Turned out the guy became a pastor while I was in school. His name is Mpho, and I gave him my numbers. 

The guy was not bad looking but I didn’t think I’ll ever go for such guys, I mean my varsity boyfriend was a hottie. He was tall dark and wow good in everything, getting over him has not even happened to date. But let’s forget about him and focus on Mpho. 

Mpho started calling me and trying to convince me for a date till a agreed. We went to Tzaneen Spur, like he would go all out just to spoil me. I didn’t even realize how I fell in love with him but everything has a reason. So every time we met, we would make love like nobody’s business. I loved every bit of it and I still remember everything like it was yesterday. 

A year passed and then discovered the guy was married and he was planning on bringing the wife back. He gave me such a lame excuse and as stupid in love I was with him, I foolishly believed him as he was lying his teeth. 

Although he was staying with her, our relationship never changed. My family loved him except for my younger sister, she found out the guy was married and hurried to inform me and I just kept quiet and continued the sham of the relationship. 

Another year passed and I got a job as a cashier far from home and had to rent a room. Guess what, he paid for the room every month till one day he stopped picking up my calls late when I called him. He sent me a message that the lady was pregnant and didn’t want to hide it from me. I then decided to also buy a pregnancy test and to my surprise, I found out I was also pregnant. After informing him we started fighting and he stopped coming. 

Mpho later called to tell me that the wife had a miscarriage but turned out she was never pregnant. After the news, he fell sick to date. And now I have given birth to a beautiful baby girl but he’s still going back to back in the hospital. It’s so sad that he’s sick and I pity him but there’s nothing I can do since he has a wife.
