I had a best friend well at least I thought so. We did things together, shared deepest secrets and I could not imagine my life without her. I took her as a sister because she was there for me hence I was always there for her. I was so fond of her and always wanted to be around her.

Things started to change, she was so distant and I thought maybe I was imagining things. No phone calls, no messages. At that time I was going through a lot. I had relationship issues and I needed her to be by my side, to give me advices, to console me but she wasn’t there. My boyfriend and I were fighting. Things were no longer the same. I was afraid of losing him because I really loved that soul. I thought we had a future together but that was just a dream and so happy it was.

On the other hand I could find my best friend with my enemies. She was so shy and couldn’t even look at me. I was so shattered and confused at the same time.my enemies knew all about my secrets . I tried to reach up to her but she was no longer interested. I thought maybe I did something wrong but I couldn’t even think of one thing I did.

She blocked me on social media and that’s when I realized that I should let her go. One day I went to my boyfriend without telling him that I’m coming , I wanted to surprise him but I was surprised . I found my best friend with my boyfriend in the same bed ,making love. I thought was I was dreaming . To think that those two were the most important people in my life. I didn’t want to believe it. I realised why my best friend was acting that way and why my boyfriend always fighting me all that time. I thought I had friend but I was wrong .she knew what she was doing .

I was the topic in the township. I thought that my life was over. She started calling me to insults me , telling me to accept defeat and I must never to talk to her man . I eventually decided to let go , forget about those snakes. I dusted my self and told myself that I’m bigger than that. I won’t fight over a man . I receive an acceptance letter to study for nursing . I grabbed that opportunity with both hands .

Five years letter I returned to my home and here to fix my parents house. I was now working . While going to the shops I met Lethabo and her friends busy gossiping and I was not surprised because that they excel in gossip. I couldn’t waste an opportunity to tell her what she deserves. “I wanted to thank you for everything you did , taking that burden away from me, insulting and gossiping me, you made me strong hence today I was able to find real love. Please say hi to Themba.” I know that I was not supposed to do that but she deserves it.

Rumors says that Themba left her the same way they did to me. I called it karma, it may take years but at end it shall hit you .
