Thandiwe

Today was our last night in this place, having to go back to the reality of life, so for now I made sure to enjoy my time with Sello and be able too drag it as much as I can.

I scooted closer to Sello, I could almost hear him smile in the darkness as he held me tighter.

“Why don’t you live your husband?”

I kept quiet for a while, Sbonga has been a huge part of my life and has been a part of a child’s life that is not even his, he has been a father for Thandi and loved her like he was his own and for that I’ll be forever grateful. Even though the spark on my side has long faded it will be hard to cut ties with him just like that not because there was any love left now that I have met Sello but because he has been a part of my childs life that it will be too cruel to cut him off now.

“I mean I could love you way more than he does, I could take you anywhere in the world hell I can buy the world for you if that’s what you wanted. You won’t have to work another day in your life, leave him.” He said as he sat up straight from the bed and held my hand “Unless you want him and not me, I’ll understand but I can’t be able to date someone else’s partner.”

A lot of thoughts were going through my mind at this second, I mean how will I even tell Sbonga that I want a divorce, what about Thandi?

“You can send divorce papers, you don’t have to go there.” He said as if he was reading my mind.

“Do you still want to be with him? He can’t even offer you a trip to Mpumalanga, he can’t give you what I can. Unless you still love him or do you?”

I shook my head “I choose you, I love you Sello. I don’t see why I have to be with Sbonga if he doesn’t make me happy.” The words felt strange in my mouth.

“That’s my girl.” He said as he kissed me “So must I call my lawyer and tell them to draw up those papers?”

Everything was moving so fast, it was even hard to keep track but I still nodded, giving my go ahead. Without wasting any second he picked up his phone abd made a call.
