Nombuso

I smiled as I remembered the call that I got from Ayabonga.

“Get ready, I am taking you out.” He said over the phone, even though he never mentioned where he was taking me I decided to go with being casual just a jean and a t-shirt.

I looked at the watched it was already half past 5 and the knock came through the door and standing there was Ayabonga and handed me flowers “You look beautiful.”

I smiled as I took the flowers and muttered a thank you. I looked at him and saw that he was not also wearing casual.

“Let me put these in the water and we can go and please make yourself at home.” He nodded as he walked deeper into my flat.

I watched at him as he looked around “You have a nice taste.” he said as he turned to look at the paintings I had.

“Thank you.” I said as I poured water on the vase and placed the flowers inside.

He walked over towards my direction and nodded to the flowers on the counter “I hope you like them.”

“Oh yeah, they are really beautiful.”

“Not as beautiful as you though.” He said with a smile. I playfully rolled my eyes at him as we got out.

We got inside his car and watched him drive from time to time he turned to me and smiled making me blush just a little bit.

It felt weird being so free, not being filled with constant worry and fear.

At this moment with Ayabonga besides me I felt so free around him.
